Ok guys, so I had never heard of wolf!au until I started reading SeBaek fanfics on here. I've read a few of them, and I was pretty confused, I had no idea what the rules were and stuff. I thought it was pretty strange at first, but I realized there were some interesting things you could accomplish in that kind of story that you couldn't otherwise. So it got me thinking, and eventually I came up with this idea.

I have no idea if this has been done before, since I only just discovered wolf!au recently. I'm sorry if this coincidentally ended up being a rip off of someone else idea, but I searched for a while on the internet and didn't find anything similar, so I don't know.

Now, if you're like me and have no idea what the wolf!au rules are, let me put the basic stuff I found here. I took a bunch of information from other sites and combined them, I gave links at the bottom to credit those people.

READ THIS:

If you are already familiar with Wolf!au than go ahead and skip down to the Cat!au part, since that is made up material for this story that would be good to know. Although it would be good to skim the Wolf part as well and become acquainted with the specific rules for this story.

Wolf AU Guidelines:

From my understanding, in Wolf AU (alternate universe), wolves look like normal people but can transform into a wolf whenever they want to.

Omegaverse

Omegaverse is a AU in which males can get pregnant. In their pack, there are three main roles: Alpha, Beta, and Omega. Note: Alpha, Beta, and Omegas can all be women, but for this story I'm only talking about the males.

Alpha

The Alphas are the more aggressive ones out of the pack. They are the larger and stronger ones, the dominate ones in bed. All Alphas have larger penises and are the ones to fight over an Omega.

Terms used for Alphas:

Knotting

Alphas usually have a knot when aroused, their penis enlarges at the base to lock inside the Omega. When close to orgasm, this knot inflates to hold in the semen, increasing the likelihood of impregnation.

Rutting

Alphas may experience a "rutting" period which is analogous to going into heat. When an alpha comes into contact with the pheromones of an omega in heat, they become aroused and go into rut, which is essentially an unquenchable lust for the omega. All alphas are subject to this, but alphas which are bonded to another omega, or alphas that are closely biologically related to omegas, find the rut to be calmer, and more resistible.

Betas

Betas are the normal, everyday guy. They can still breed with other Betas, but they cannot breed with Omegas or get them pregnant. They're popular with employers because they're submissive mostly and not territorial and don't require copulation leave.

Omegas

Omegas are the softer and more gentle of these roles. They are the nurturing parents who raise their children and they are the only ones in here who can get pregnant. Male Omegas are self-lubricating and have the ability to become pregnant, sometimes referred to as being bred or mated.

Terms used for Omegas:

Heat

All Omegas go through heat. A heat is the time when the Omega is most fertile and ready to mate, or just hide away until the heat is over. This varies between stories, but in this one it happens once a year during mating season, in the winter. It lasts from about 3 days to 1 week. If they have an Alpha mate, Alphas will never leave their side unless they need to get their Omega food or water. Mainly, they have sex and then rest. If an Omega has no mate, that could be dangerous to even leave the house. So they basically lock themselves in a room. A good part about this heat is that the Omega will self-lubricate. During these heats, a strong pheromone is released, causing the Alphas to smell it and chase after the Omega. There are pills to stop the heats from happening or washes that help cover the scent up. An omega's first heat can occur anywhere from age 10 to age 17, which triggers the start of puberty for an omega.

Courting

Courting is to show that the Alpha can protect, provide, and cherish the Omega. Alphas usually present furs, meals, and an assortment of presents to the Omega.

Bonding

I had a really hard time finding information on this. If anyone can elaborate it would be appreciated.

Bonding is achieved by the Alpha biting into a scent gland on the Omega's neck hard enough to draw blood and eventually scar. It ties two people together mentally, physically, and emotionally. Like a really extreme marriage. The bonding mark will heal relatively slowly, but will not scab or clot. Very little blood is shed, and instead it will appear as if new skin is growing over it immediately. It forms as a sign to others that they already have a mate.

Scenting

Scenting is the process of someone spreading their own unique scent onto things or people in an act of comfort or possession, performed by rubbing on it.

Cat AU Guidelines:

I made up all the cat society stuff for this stroy. Feel free to use it if you want, but make sure to give me credit ;)

Like wolves, cats look like normal people but can transform into a cat whenever they want to. Males can also get pregnant. In their society (Not packs, cats don't have packs), there are three main roles: The Queen/King, Princesses/Princes, and Tomcats.

Unlike wolves, the female and male cats capable of getting impregnated (The "Omegas" if you will) are the dominant ones in the society. They are the ones who decide if they are going to mate or not with the tomcats.

Although some cats prefer a solitary lifestyle, most are content to live in small societies.

Queens (F) / Kings (M)

Are the oldest sexually active cat that will typically take on the leading role of their society. There is only one leader. They will get the best sleeping places and first dibs on food. If you had to compare to wolves, they are like omegas since they can get pregnant, but have the alpha role in their society.

Princesses (F) / Princes (M)

Help the leader with her/his litter, bringing them food or helping groom them. If you had to compare to wolves, they are also like omegas, since they can get pregnant. They join forces to drive off intruders and threats to the colony, including fighting off tomcats.

Tomcats (M) / Pussycat (F)

Spend most of their life alone, roaming a large territory looking for a mate. When they encounter a Queen/King/Princess/Prince in heat, they'll attempt to mate with them. However, if the attention is unwanted, they will be sent away. It takes a long time for a Queen/King/Princess/Prince to warm up to a tomcat/pussycat and allow them to mate. Once the deed is done, the tomcat/pussycat leaves, and they will raise their kittens without the tomcat/pussycat.

If you had to compare to wolves, they are like alphas since they are dominant in bed, but they are the bottom rung of society.

Solitary Cats

Solitary cats are much more aggressive than cats who live in a society together. Have a hard time getting along with others.

Heat

Queen/King/Princess/Prince go through heat. A heat is the time when they are most fertile and ready to mate, or just hide away until the heat is over. This happens once a year during mating season, in the fall. It lasts from about 3 days to 1 week. Cats also self-lubricate. During heat, a strong pheromone is released.

Courting

A tomcat/pussycat chooses who they would like to attempt to mate with, but the Queen/King/Princess/Prince are the ones in charge of courting. In the first stage they will allow a tomcat/pussycat to get near them. Then later they will show acceptance by purring and licking the tomcat/pussycat. Eventually the tomcat/pussycat will stay with them in their house until their heat begins.

Mating

Queen/King/Princess/Prince are very picky, and very rarely mate at all. It is usually a short process, not involving a lot of romance. Romance is for bonded couples only. Cats never mate outside of heat.

Bonding

Cats bonds are rare, and don't have a mark or anything like wolves. Queen/King/Princess/Prince will allow a tomcat/pussycat to mate with them a second time. After a second time of mating, courting is no longer necessary, and they are considered a couple. Neither of them will try to mate with someone else anymore. However, they never live with each other.

Scenting

Scenting is the process of someone spreading their own unique scent onto things or people in an act of comfort or possession, performed by rubbing on it.

Cat Colonies/Societies

Queen/King/Princess/Prince live together in a home and take care of their kittens together. Tomcat/pussycat do not live in the colony, and will be shooed away if not welcome.

Remember guys, I'm new to all this, so if I got some wolf stuff wrong, or left something out, please let me know. Thanks!
