My Feisty Omega
The blind date
In an attic, sat a boy. He was hunched over a table as he tried to make sense of the words before him. Occasionally, he glanced at the door as if he was expecting someone.
Melin screamed from the first floor. Her face was pulled up in a frown.
Ray
Shit, that bitch is back!
He hastily hid the book he was reading, under the old cupboard.
She peered up when she heard Ray's voice
Ray closed the door to the attic, and raced downstairs.
Melin
What are you doing there? I've been screaming like a fool for the last minute!
Melin
Come on, you have a visitor
Ray
A visitor?
Who's that?
Melin
You will know when you see him
Ray
Another Alpha?
*Groans*
I don't want—
Melin
You are in no position to tell me what you want and what you don't!
Now, off you go. I need you dressed and ready in a minute. If not, you are sleeping in the basement tonight!
Ray shivered at her words.. Though he wanted to argue with her, he knew there was no way he could afford sleeping in the dark basement.
Ray hurried to his room. He got dressed in one of his few hunting clothes.
Ray
If it turns out to be one of those Alphas who are looking for a wife, I will rip him a new one.
*Giggles*
It's always fun to mess with them
Ray
I'm ready. Where is the Alpha? what do you need me to do?
Melin
*gives him a once over*
You don't look bad today.
well, you are meeting the soon to be Alpha of the dark hollows.
Ray
Wow, you went up a notch.
*sarcastically rolls his eyes*
Melin
Don't try to use your petty tricks on him.
I've gotten fed up with your childish ways.
Ray
I will never think of doing that.
Melin
You better don't.
This will be the last Alpha I will ever match make with you.
You are not getting any younger, Ray. You need to be married off before you become too old.
Ray
Old?
*Scoffs*
I just turned eighteen. I'm no where getting old.
Melin
*sighs*
Let's not keep the Alpha waiting. Off you go.
Melin
At your father's garden.
Hurry up, we have wasted enough time already
Ray hurried towards the garden Melin pointed out. He was desperate to get everything done.
Ray glanced around.. The garden was empty. Save for the birds.
Ray
Well, it seems he got tired of waiting. I better leave—
Rock
Thinking of leaving, are we?
A yelp escaped from Ray's mouth when he felt the cold whisper behind him
Ray
What did you do that for?!
Ray angrily turned to Rock who had an indifferent expression on his face.
Dressed in a button down blue shirt and black slacks, Rock seemed more like a student than an Alpha to be.
Rock
I'm Rock.
You must be Ray?
*Raises a brow*
Aside from the chirping of birds and sounds of rushing water, there were no other sounds to be heard.
Just like Ray did at first, Rock checked out the Omega his father forced him to meet.
The cute omega didn't seem as docile as his father claimed to be. His eyes seemed fiery.
Ray
Let's get down to business, Alpha.
I don't care for this marriage and you..
Just tell my aunt that you don't like me.
This way, you won't be shackled with someone like me.
Rock
Someone like you?
Hmm
Who exactly are you?
*places a hand under his jaw*
Ray
I'm an Omega who doesn't care for marriage.
Let's do ourselves this favour and cut this before we are forced on yet another date.
Rock
Interesting.
*smirks*
Your suggestions aren't that bad.
You seem to have given this a thought before I arrived.
Ray
Well ...
*nervously scratches hair*
You aren't the first Alpha I've been on a blind date with.
Let's say I've gotten experienced in getting rid of wannabe suitors.
Rock
Hmm.
Tell me, Omega.
Why don't you want to get married? is there—
Ray
Don't you dare call me an omega!
I have a name, and you know that.
Call me by my name.
Rock
Oops my bad.
*doesn't look apologetic at all*
Ray
So, what do you say?
Let's get this done with.
I'm ready to bear the brunts of attack.
Just tell them I wasn't a good host.
Ray smirked when he saw the thoughtful expression on Rock's face. He was certain that Rock was probably considering his offer.
Rock
That's a good idea, but.....
Ray
But what?
*narrows suspicious glares at Rock*
What else do you want?
Rock
Let's say...
*takes a step forward*
I find you interesting, Omega
Ray
Don't call me that!
*grits teeth*
I'm a damned Omega, you don't have to continuously rub it in my face!
Rock
*chuckles*
You are one good entertainer.
You smell like my brother
Their conversation was disturbed by Rock's assistant who called to inform Rock of the appointment he had with his father.
Rock
I'm afraid I will have to take my leave, my omega
*grins*
Ray
It was a pleasure, Alpha.
I hope you will put my offer into consideration
Rock
Offer?
(pretends not to know what Ray was talking about)
Which offer is that?
Our marriage?
Ray
You know what the hell I'm talking about.
I'm looking forward to a reply from you
Rock
You won't get to wait for long, love
Rock winked at Ray before he strode out of the garden, and headed over to where his car was packed. Ray went back to the house to resume his reading. However, he was almost tackled to the floor by his younger brother.
Little Grape
Brother!
where have you been?
Grape missed you
*pouts like a baby*
Ray
Aww
I missed my grape too.
(he squats in front of the kid)
Where have you been, little grape?
Little Grape
Melin had me play with Cassy that bully
Little Grape
Over there!
(points over to where Cassy was)
Cassy who was looking through the pictures in the hall ran towards them at the sound of Ray's voice
Ray
Cassy, darling
Did you miss this old uncle?
Cassy
Of course, I did
*sniffs the air*
You smell like my brother!
Did you meet with that meanie?
Ray
*frowns*
Your brother?
What's his name?
Cassy
*rolls his eyes*
Rock.
He's a meanie who hates playing with me.
Don't go near him, he eats omegas.
Little Grape
*places his hands on his waist*
You guys are doing it again!
How can you ignore me when I'm standing next to you? You are doing it again!
Ray
I'm sorry, baby
*rolls his eyes*
So, what do you fellas want to do today?
Little Grape
Let's play tag!
Cassy
But, you've not told me why you are smelling like my eldest brother.
Ray
*frowns*
We talked earlier. I never knew he was your brother.
Cassy
*giggles*
You might not have known. I just got adopted into the family. Today might be the last day I visit Little Grape. They are taking me away from here.
Cassy
I've been adopted, silly!
They had some fun before Cassy was taken back by the Alphas butler, while Melin who had gotten a call earlier from Rock, called him to her study.
Melin
Seems like the alpha has gotten a liking to you, Ray. You seem to have changed
Ray
What do you mean?
That Alpha is shit-bat crazy!
Melin
Mind your words, Ray.
He's your future husband and your Alpha.
Ray
My alpha?
To hell with your Alpha!
I'm not getting married to any damned Alpha.
*clenches his hands into fists*
Melin
*purses her lips*
You are leaving for longville tomorrow.
Ray
Longville?
why am I going there?
We don't have any relative there.
Melin
Your Alpha schools at Longville.
You are going over there to be with him.
The courting process is three months. After that, the families involved will discuss the mating ceremony.
Ray
I'm not going there!
You won't force me to get married to anyone!
I'm not—
Melin
He offered to have you enrolled in the same school as him.
Ray
What?
A school?
*widens his eyes in disbelief*
Melin
Think about it, Ray. Not only will you get to visit one of the best cities, but you will also be enrolled in the best university in the entire country.
And let's not forget you are getting married to the future Alpha of his pack.
Boy, you've got a good start.
A new friend
Though Ray was reluctant to get engaged to Rock, he agreed to Melin's idea of living with Rock, to know him better. This way, he can be able to attend school.
Ray
*wipes sweat from his brow*
God, if I knew Melin will dump me at the train station, I would have asked Father to bring me here.
It was mid-afternoon. Melin only brought him to the train station where she left him to fend for himself. The only thing she left him was a map that will lead him to Rock's school.
Ray
*stares hard at the map*
How did she except me to find my way with this ancient thing?
I think I better sit down.
(walks to a bench not too far from him)
What a long day.
Ray sat on the bench for a long time and would have stayed there until Melin or Rock comes for him.
However, that was until someone sat next to him.
Andy
Apologies.
Did I wake you up?
I just wanted to rest a bit before I leave.
Ray
It's alright. You didn't wake me up. I was just lost in thoughts.
*gives the boy a once over*
Are you a student?
Andy
Yes, of course.
I'm Andy.
I study at the green crosses, and you?
Ray
Green crosses?
*widens his eyes*
I'm Ray.
Andy
Why did you seem surprised when I mentioned the green crosses?
Do you study there?
Ray
I just got....an admission!
Andy
Wow, that's great.
We can go together if you don't mind.
*smiles kindly*
Ray
Wow, thank you so much!
I was waiting for my stepmom to return. But it seems she's not returning. I guess I will go with you then?
Andy
That's awesome.
Where are your bags?
I can help you with them.
Ray
No, I don't wish to impose on you. Thanks for offering to show me the way to the Academy.
Andy
It's not a problem. You are my junior, of course, I must take care of you.
Ray
Your words flatter me, senior.
*rises to his feet*
Let's go then.
Andy
Here, help me with this guitar case, I will carry your bag for you.
Ray
Oh, thanks a lot, senior.
Andy
Andy.
You can call me by my name. Aren't we friends?
Ray
*Blinks*
Of course, we are. We are friends.
Andy led Rather through the busy streets until they got to the academy which was a bit farther from the town.
Ray
*gasps*
Wow, the Academy is beautiful.
Andy
The novelty will wear off after a year here. it will seem like every other school to you.
Ray
*furiously shakes his head*
I don't think so.
Andy
Anything you say.
Come on.
Ray
Which year are you in?
Ray
Third?
that's dope.
You only have a year left before graduation.
Andy
It's not all that dope. Most times, I wish I will stay in the school for at least two extra years.
Ray
*gasps*
Two extra years?
what for?
Andy
*shakes his head*
Come on, I will show you the way to the dean's office. As for your bag, I will help you drop it in your designated room.
Ray
Thank you very much, Andy.
