I am an omega, which has the lowest status in a pack. Because I'm an omega, my strength is very weak compared to the other wolves.People look down on me as an omega, it's a common thing. They think that being an omega is a shameful thing. Weak and lowly, but omega itself has many roles in a pack.Unlike the others, there were more omegas in the pack. They take care of more things, and most of the things they take care of are things that pack members avoid because they are too trivial.But in fact, they are very important. Often the other werewolves and even the alpha don't want to know what the omegas are doing. Even though if what is done by the omega is a little late, then the alpha's work also gets interrupted.If I'm told to choose, I don't want to be an omega either. I also wanted to be strong, not have to suffer unnatural humiliation and be able to live a little more peacefully, but what could I do? I had been terrorized like that.I became an omega without being able to choose
These few days, I was quite calm because there were no problems, and everything was going well. The project I'm working on is almost finished, and then my meeting with Prof. Seth wasn't interrupted either.It all happened thanks to Atlas, who had avoided contact with me for the past few days. I didn't care, and I actually felt relieved, although, of course, Rory often showed up later and got angry with me because my attitude towards Atlas was considered bad by him.She kept rambling that I might get into trouble later because of my attitude, and then I would regret treating Atlas like that, and that kind of thing meant that I had to go to Atlas and apologize for my attitude towards him. Seriously! I certainly wasn't going to do that.But I didn't want to think about it. I wanted to enjoy my time off as best as I could before Atlas got back at me. Who knows when Atlas will end his quiet time and start giving me trouble again? So before that happens, I will enjoy my peace.I closed my l
"You don't have to overthink about it, Elsie." I looked up, staring at Prof. Seth, who came to bring me a cup of coffee.The man's hand stretched out to give me the cup, and I accepted it. "Thank you," I said softly, then grasped the warm cup with both hands tightly.I focused on the warmth radiating from my palms, sighing softly. My gaze looked gloomy now, the cafe where we were sitting which looked colorful, looked dark.I hissed and cast my gaze out the window of the campus cafeteria. My mind was trying hard to find an escape to stop being down, but I couldn't find anything that could make me turn away from disappointment."Elsie..." I heard Prof. Seth calling my name softly. I then turned my gaze to him. I felt a little bad for making her overlook me when she was trying to comfort me. He sighed softly, looking into my eyes with a softened look. "You don't have to think about it."I wish I did!I wish I could relax and be optimistic about what happened. But what I've experienced so
Anonymous PoV"I'm in a good mood right now." I looked up at the window that revealed the light from the view from the floor.Compared to the light from outside the window, this place looked dim and gloomy. Only the lights were dimly lit, restricting the movement of the eyes in looking, but I was strangely unaffected by the atmosphere of this room.I vaguely saw movement from the man sitting opposite me. "That woman doesn't deserve happiness," I said, continuing our previous discussion.I took another sip of wine from my glass, smiling. My heart was beating merrily, and the endorphins in my body gathered to make me happy. What happened to that woman really cheered me up.Honestly, I was expecting the situation to be even worse, but that's okay, it's a start, because slowly what I want will come to pass, what I hope for will come to pass."So what do we do next?" the man asked, looking impatient.Although he didn't need to be. I don't like rushing things without a plan. Most of the tim
"I don't want to go home," I muttered after parting with Prof. Seth.It's not because I want to be with Prof. Seth longer, but because I don't want to go back home immediately and meet the people at home, especially...I walked with no enthusiasm as I recalled what Harry told me about this morning. Well, I have to attend the training camp tonight. This is a direct order from Harry.Who would understand the alpha's attitude? Harry doesn't talk to me much. Rarely, in fact, but suddenly, he was talking about training camp.I know, at my age. It was only natural for me to come and participate in it. However, I'm not sure if my being there will make any progress.I mean, look at me!It's no secret that I'm very weak. People think I am, and they don't hesitate when they say that I'm useless.And then, this useless person would suddenly appear and join them. "Ah, I'm sure it will be very uncomfortable." I kicked at the small rocks I saw along my travelling path.Venting my frustration at the
"I really miss him." Rory appeared suddenly and started to show her presence in me again.She rarely spoke to me, showing her presence, which she rarely did when in a difficult situation. But if it caused Atlas, the person he recognized as her mate, then she would appear and confuse me with what she felt."I'm happy to be in her arms. Breathing in her scent makes me feel so close to her. Doesn't his embrace feel warm, Elsie?" I smiled sarcastically as she asked that in my head.What the hell is she?Warm, she said? She might be losing her mind, but I'm not. Atlas was one of the sources that made my life miserable. I really don't understand Rory.I know I'm just an omega, but if Rory had shown up in my difficult moments, maybe I wouldn't be this miserable. If she had shown up and said something to encourage me, then I wouldn't feel so alone.Whether it was Rory or Atlas, both of them pissed me off. I felt angry. Something inside me seemed to overflow out."I want to be able to touch he
Elsie’s POV"Elsie ..." I turned my gaze in another direction as I faintly heard someone's voice calling me. Then I kept walking when I felt that it was just my hallucination."Elsie..." but the voice came back and was even clearer than before.I turned my face back. "Atlas?... is that you?" I searched for the origin of the voice but found no one there.Strange, then where did the voice come from if people were far enough away from me? A moment later, I could feel something approaching. There was a pressure that made my instincts kick in and alert me.I looked around and tried to calm down while concentrating on my strength to fight back. Then, when I felt that he was approaching, I raised my hand and prepared to attack even though I probably wouldn't win."Elsie, it's me." Now that I recognised that voice, he was standing right before me.I opened my mouth involuntarily and let out a sigh. "Prof. Seth?" I was amazed, but because of the sight of him, my caution dropped.He smiled and
Elsie’s POVHe wants me to call him by name only? Without any professor frills? How convenient.I was one of his students, and he was the professor who taught me, so there was a gap. There was no way I could just call him by name.Allowing myself to become too familiar by negating our status would go too far. I should still treat him with respect."I obviously can't do that prof. You're a teaching professor. It would be rude of me to just call you by name." Is it possible that he feels very familiar with me? But still, what would others think if they found out I called her by name only?I can imagine people would scoff at me, and then not only Atlas fans would bully me but also those who admire Professor Seth.Prof. Seth looked at me with a slight tilt of his head. He tried to look at me more appropriately. "Yes, I understand what you mean. But I mean that when the two of us meet and talk like this, you can treat me as your friend instead of as a professor who teaches." He explained f
Elsie's PovI stared at the man fiercely. No...no, Atlas can't think that this is his son. I don't want that man to feel that way. No matter how much I don't want to trust him anymore, I will stick to my previous decision.I shook my head, pushing him back from in front of me. "No, it's not. You already know that this is Seth's child!" I denied it loudly, but Atlas didn't believe my words.He shook his head sluggishly. "I'm sure you're telling a lie. The baby in your womb, he responded to me." Atlas fixed his eyes on my stomach, making me grab it and cover it from him. "He became calmer when I got closer to him, and your condition improved. It's like he's talking to me through the bond. I feel it!" Atlas exclaimed, coming closer to me with his gaze fixed firmly on me, not letting me escape him.I tried to break away from him, pushing him away, but my efforts were in vain. "What are you thinking? Just because this baby is calmer, you think he's yours?" I tried to turn the tables by say
Atlas PovSo he was the one who gave the wolf bane to Donna? But he probably didn't know anything. It could be that, just like Donan, prof Awkson was perhaps the one being used.However, finding Awkson to be the one involved seemed to further narrow down the people who were also involved."So my suspicions were well-founded, suspecting Seth was the right thing to do," I muttered seriously, keeping watch all night in that place.Now I'm just waiting for the right moment to go inside and meet with Elsie. But damn, Seth hadn't moved from his spot in days.He remained in the house, and that made me very upset. "This isn't normal. How could he be home for so many days? Does she have absolutely nothing else to do? There's no way an unemployed person like that would agree to be responsible for someone, let alone a baby. He must have some other identity he's hiding so money isn't a problem for him."My suspicions grew daily, and I became increasingly reluctant to leave, leaving Elsie, who cou
Atlas' POVI sighed heavily, pulling my car door open, then getting inside and slamming it shut. Again, even after being inside and watching them from a distance, I still felt annoyed.I was annoyed by various things. So far, I felt like I was being played and tortured at the same time. My feelings became so chaotic when I saw Elsie holding her stomach pain in the hospital. I followed her from behind and was full of anxiety. I was angry because even though I saw her, I couldn't do anything. I could only follow her from behind, hoping that she was okay.I closed my eyes while exhaling a heavy breath that pressed against my chest with an unrelenting weight. "Why do I have to experience such a horrible thing?" I covered my face with my palms and rubbed them back. Of the many difficult things I've experienced in my lifetime, this was the first time I felt so helpless.I didn't understand why, among millions of people, I had to be chosen to undergo this kind of fate. Why did I get bad luck
Elsie's PovI looked out with a carefree feeling. What was previously weighing on my heart and mind seemed to be lifted thanks to my gaze being distracted by what passed before my eyes. As Seth's car passed by, I saw many things.The sight of the bustling city and the many large buildings built along the way comforted my eyes and quieted my mind. I had been thinking about many things for a while, and the noise in my head suddenly disappeared, becoming quieter as I watched my surroundings bustling with people."Is it this crowded, Seth? I don't recall it being the weekend." I turned my head towards Seth, who was also looking out the window.From the crowded place, I wondered what they were doing, where they were going, and what they felt as they walked down the street in the middle of the crowd, mingling with others.Could it be that they felt free? Did they think lighter by enjoying their lives, or did they feel shackled by what they were doing? Among them, some were walking with only
Elsie's Pov"So you're sure this isn't a contraction or something?" I looked at Seth. Even though the expression on his face looked grim and gloomy, he still asked and confirmed my condition, overriding what he felt.The doctor approached and checked my pulse quietly. It seemed not to confirm what Seth asked but because he just needed to check. "No, it's still not labour yet. If it's normal labour, it seems it will still take a while." he turned towards Seth, then later patted the man's shoulder. "You don't need to be that worried. This kind of cramps will probably appear several times during pregnancy, but stay calm, as it's nothing serious."Seth exhaled and looked at me with relief, though his eyes still didn't seem back to what they were before. "Let it go, then. I'll take her home." Seth approached me, helped me get up from where I was lying and sat me in the wheelchair.Before leaving, Seth approached the doctor, who wrote something on paper. Then he held his head and looked at
Elsie's PovEven though I had previously avoided Seth's suspicions of me, and I had also tried to organise my mind to trust Seth, I didn't understand why I still doubted what had happened or why I still doubted that he was someone I knew.I still doubted that what Seth did had anything to do with what Atlas said. My eyes realised his sincerity, realised his feelings for me weren't an ordinary mask, but my intuition for him didn't make me calm.Day after day, I was troubled by my growing suspicion of him. I, who tried to ignore what I felt, finally could no longer ignore my feelings for him. I felt restless, and my desire to keep my mind calm for the sake of the baby in my womb was no longer able to keep it calm.Even though I tried my hardest, I could no longer dismiss the suspicion towards Seth that kept growing inside me. I wanted to keep trusting him and hoping that he was exactly what I had seen, but I couldn't do it. I can't think like that anymore.If I'm a hybrid, then that mea
Elsie's povWhat was he doing? Why did he suddenly come back? Didn't she leave earlier? I didn't understand. My eyes looked at him in surprise while Seth looked at me in confusion."Seth, why did you come back?" I ventured to ask him. Staring at him with the fear in me that I tried to hide. "Didn't you go out earlier?"Why did he suddenly come back? Did he know what I was about to do? Could he be starting to suspect that I knew what he would do? How is this? What should I do?Seth walked closer. I, sitting on the floor near the row where his books were lined up, stared while holding my breath.He walked steadily closer, then stopped on the floor where I was sitting, near a drawer. "I came back because I left something behind." He pulled the drawer out and then took out a light brown file. I watched silently, with my breath trying to escape. Then he looked back at me. "And you alone, Elsie? What are you doing in my room?"I gulped the saliva in my throat nervously. My heart felt like i
Elsie's pov"Where are you going, Seth?" I asked Seth, who was getting ready by putting on his shoes.I looked into his eyes intently after he turned to me as soon as I asked him.Seth smoothed the laces on the light brown formal shoes he was wearing. He turned his head silently to me for a moment. "I have something to buy outside, and then I want to meet someone." He looked at me, somewhat confused.I came closer to him. For some reason, I wanted to prove what Atlas had told me that day. I didn't want to keep harbouring suspicions about him, so I'd better quickly find out what Seth might be hiding from me. "Can I come?" I looked at him expectantly. "How about we do the shopping later and meet your friend first?" I suggested it to him.For all I knew, if it wasn't anything suspicious or anything like that, Seth would never object to me following him, and he wouldHe did as I asked and was patient as always. However, one thing made it necessary for her to act otherwise.He looked doubt
Elsie's PovI stared blankly at what Seth was busily preparing for me, my mind completely distracted with what he might do. I can no longer trust him completely like I used to.I'm not sure what he gave me now is safe. I didn't understand which one I trusted more between him and Atlas, but feeling the way my heart thumped around him and how I responded while being around Atlas, I believed that something wrong was indeed happening.If my feelings are already like this, then I should be wary. If later this proves to be just a suspicion, I will punish myself for suspecting him and apologise to him, while in the meantime, I will be wary of his attitude.I'm sorry, Seth, but I just want safety for myself, especially since the situation lately is very complicated, and I don't want to take any risks."Sit down. Why are you just sitting there?" He smiled softly, as was his habit in front of me.I gazed at that face with observing eyes. I stared at her intently, trying to find a crack at what
