Society has always been kind to alphas— it's a privilege given at birth. But even among alphas, there are those that are just smarter, taller and better looking.

Take Kai for example.

It's a shame he doesn't take advantage of it. When dozens of omegas throw themselves at him, he opts to stay with you— it's strange to see an alpha following around another alpha.

But you've known him for so long.

As an alpha, yourself, you get countless confessions— each omega cuter than the next. You're not interested in a relationship, but you can't help but be gentle while Kai doesn't even do so much as bat an eye with his rejections. Maybe that's why you've been more popular at school recently.

"You should reject them properly." Kai warned you once. He very rarely interjects— so really, you should have taken his advice seriously.

But omegas are soft, sweet and sensitive— who are you to break their hearts? This world is chuck full of arrogant and conceited alphas— what's so wrong with treating omegas with the kindness they've been denied?

Omegas are harmless. Or so you thought—

Until you were intentionally cornered by one in heat.

You felt your entire body tense and shudder. An omega's pheromone is intoxicating— you immediately felt the drive to claim. To hold down. To overpower.

You were also scared.

Thankfully, Kai is never too far from you.

"Don't."

Kai clasps the back of your neck and presses your face against his shoulder. You breathe in his scent and feel nauseous—

You're both alphas after all. To you, Kai's pheromones are nowhere near as attractive as an omegas'— it's almost overwhelming.

Repulsive.

You grip his shoulder, trying to push yourself away only to hear a low growl as Kai keeps your face pressed against him. His hand trembles as he grips the back of your neck.

Kai is obviously just as affected by the omega's heat as you are— but his resolve is strong and his grip around you, an anchor.

Kai glowers at the omega, a terrifying chill in his eyes.

"Don't you fucking try this again."
