"You heard that, Yohan? The omega is asking for our names." I heard the beautiful man whisper to the brute looking man whose name is Yohan. “Should I tell him?” “You’ve already given my name out, idiot. Just answer the question for yourself.” The man named Yohan grumbled. The beautiful man looked at me and gave such a dazzling smile. “My name is Blue.” “Blue. Like the color?” Blue smiled. “Yes. Like the color.” I looked around and remembered what had happened before I blacked out. How long have I been out? Damn that Ahbaya. She didn’t have to do that to me. Frustrated and all, my thoughts slipped out of my mind again. “That was fucking uncalled for.”“What is uncalled for?” Blue asked, looking at me with wide eyes. “Nothing.” Was my answer. Something too short to dodge the bullet I’ve set up for myself.It took time for me to realize that these two weren’t strangers. I wanted to ask how they know my name — but maybe I was screaming it out unconsciously from the dream I just had.

The sun had already set an hour ago. And I’m tempted to go back to my apartment and lock myself away and never come back to the Castle of Hybrids again! I tried to communicate with her, but she’s not answering my call. I can’t even connect with her at all. If this is the type of game that she’s playing then I’m not in for it. No. I’m out. She’s either really petty. Or really weird. Or she’s both. A few more minutes have passed and I feel like time is running out. It’s already close to 8PM when I spotted Ahbaya at the entrance dark corner of an alley. Finally. Finally she’s here! Oh my god. I thought I was going to lose it as she walked towards me with that innocent smile of hers. My patience was hanging by a thread and I felt like I wanted to scream at her face and unleash my wrath. “You’re late.” I grumbled after sipping through a cup of coffee I bought. If this is the adrenaline from the three coffee that I had or anger, I don’t give a fuck anymore. “I waited for 4 hours! Y

I didn’t believe Emery at first when he asked me if I had formalwear. I simply stared at his face and said, “No. I do not.”The man scoffed at me and said, “As predicted.”Without warning, he threw a paper bag and it hit my face. “Hey —”“Wear it and fast.”Is he really a man of a few words — not only that but could only spew out commands? “What for?”“The annual ball hosted by the Bloodmoon pack is being held tonight during the fullmoon. Alpha Ahbaya’s ‘pets’ are expected to attend.”I frowned at the nickname. So this is how she plans for all of us to meet huh, her ‘pets’? How distasteful. “Fine.”=============It was past eleven o’clock in the evening when I arrived at the said ballroom. Emery’s height covered me — hiding me from the crowd and his scent masking the fact that I’m an Omega in a room full of powerful hybrids. Everyone tossed aside their armors and opted for suits and ties. And the females wore cocktail dresses which I thought only existed in fairytails. A lot of powe

With every passing second I feel like I’m losing my mind. I bite my nails as I look for something that I could use to stop the bleeding. Anything. And then I remembered I have a spare shirt on my bag that I keep whenever I smell like smoke. I grabbed the shirt, tore the cloth with all my might, making a long dressing for the wound. Carefully, I lift Ahbaya up by sliding my arm under her neck, just to slide the cloth and wrap it around her.Ahbaya frowned, and murmured. “This will be quick. Bear with me, please.” Minutes feel like hours and I did what I could to clear her face and hands. “It’s going to be okay.” I whispered soothing words. She keeps on fidgeting and moving. Her face contorts in pain as she whimpers. I clicked my tongue as I reached for her hand to wipe off the blood. Frustration ran over me. Ahbaya’s body was so cold. I’ve never held her like this before. Her body was always so warm, and her face was flushed and she always smiled. I didn’t realize that I was alr

At the end of the day, I couldn’t help myself. “I was bought by someone. Someone important.” Was my sincere confession to my best friend while I promised myself not to tell her everything. The two of us decided to go back to my place where there’s less ears to hear, and no judging eyes. Dane stood up from my bed and looked like she had an epiphany. She leaned forward then slapped my shoulder, as if she had always known and was just waiting for me to actually tell her the truth. “I knew it!” “Huh?” My eyes narrowed as I stared at her. A part of me wondered what’s on her curious mind. Dane and I have known each other since we were kids. Her mother was an omega while her father was a soldier, a Gamma. And while others saw her as one of the lucky few that she’s born a beta. She’s not. Ever since her father found out her mother was pregnant, he threw them out of his house like pests. Turns out, Dane’s mother was supposed to remain a secret. He was already committed to someone. A hig
