In a world divided by castes where alphas rule, betas work and omegas obey. Falcon is at the top and in the prime of his life. Coming from a multi-million dollar family with a legacy of powerful, dominant and empowered alphas, they had the luxury of doing whatever they wanted and much more. Who would oppose them? No one. Few could stand up to those with his name.
Plus, with an appearance worthy of his status and the fortitude worthy of a full-fledged alpha to prevail over many, he had no reason to complain at 32 years old.
Even if…
Unlike all of his high caste, Sergei did not seek his destined partner, he did not want anyone who would make him lose his mind to the point of wanting to abandon everything. He liked being in control. His life, right now, was simply perfect.
That did not mean that he was a responsible man when it came to business. He had recently bought a new company, not so big or prestigious, that was in mortal decline and that was mainly focused on the world of makeup. And what was the main condition for which you chose it? Well, only beta people will work.
That meant zero problems and more productivity.
First thing in favor, you wouldn't have to deal with the classic alpha rank fights that used to happen or the tense atmosphere that was always created. Second, no or no omegas would be hinted at using your zeal or pheromones as an excuse to go after your money or your status.
That was something that could not be allowed. At his side he already had an omega, with enough status and power to be able to stand by his side and who would give birth to his strong and healthy cubs. Although he had to remove the detail that he had not yet marked it. That would be after the next wedding. Before ... it could cause problems.
Nor would he be stupid to reject his destined mate if she ever appeared in his life, but for the moment it was better to be safe than sorry. If he wasn't looking for her, he wouldn't have to show up.
The car stopped in front of the building that needed more than one touch-up, something that would do and put it at the top of the market, so he would no longer have to hear that he lived on his parents' money. In his world appearances, name, recognition, and your own achievements came first. Being alpha wasn't that easy either, and although he already made his own millions, his parents' billions were always in the shadows.
-Are you leaving me alone?- The girl next to him rubbed against his arm.
Despite being in a relationship for two years, Falcon loved her, but he didn't love her, just that she was the one. He could consider himself lucky, she was a beauty with huge blue eyes and abundant dark hair, yet there was something missing.
-I'll be back as soon as I can- He gave her a quick kiss on the lips and left. If he stayed too long she would continue to insist and from experience he knew that she ended up being unbearable.
One of the employees was already waiting for him at the entrance to take him to the meeting room where he had called one in the morning. He was fast, he didn't like detours, and he needed to make the points very clear. He commanded and what he said was done.
His secretary, a beta man two years younger and smarter than he appeared, sat next to him as he entered and settled in. At least 10 more people were waiting for him, quite tense. Sergei noticed the empty three-seater seat to his left before he started.
-Who is the missing person?- He asked in his usual serious tone. Intimidating betas and subordinates was the first thing on his agenda, he would not tolerate disrespect for his person just because he was younger than most of those present.
-Excuse me for being late. He is the head of the Design department. He is finishing compiling all the information that the previous director had about the project and said that it would take only a few minutes - one of them notified him
The alpha leaned his face into the hand that rested on the table with its elbow. He saw the man stiffen, but did not reply. The truth had called the meeting only an hour ago and the bad work of the old director was known. He didn't bother too much, he still had plenty of time.
About ten minutes had passed, when the dense atmosphere of the office was interrupted by the sound of the open door and the voice of a ... woman.
-With permission, sorry for the delay-
Falcon felt the ground beneath his feet shake and his world suddenly collapsed.
It ... couldn't ... be.
A soft but delicious smell that made him shiver from the tip of his foot to his head and his back began to soak in sweat came like lightning to his nose and he was dizzy losing for a few seconds to composure.
Beside him, Leo, his secretary touched his shoulder and saw his boss's disoriented expression. He frowned. Falcon never lost his composure like that.
-What's going on?- He asked quietly, taking advantage of the fact that those present were attentive to the newcomer.
-Leo, what the hell does an omega do in this company- he replied through clenched teeth and feeling his breath shake. His fangs threatened to pierce her lower lip.
-I do not understand what it says, I checked the staff papers before arriving and there is nothing out of what you asked-
-So what have I got before me?- He noticed the petite, slim woman with crystalline golden eyes and an ordinary face framed in short, shiny dark hair.
Leo studied the woman for a few seconds and found nothing strange. He recognized it, remembering the image in his file. Silver Miller, Head of Design Department, 23, Beta. Just in case he checked her neck and found nothing but a thin, unadorned gold chain. Not even the characteristic protective necklace of omegas and even less the trace of a supposed brand.
He gave him the information in a whisper and his boss still didn't seem to understand the situation. The alpha was intelligent so he had no idea what was happening, or the interest in that woman, perhaps it had caught his attention, he did not believe, Sergei, from what he knew, was quite faithful and no scandal was known to him.
-Leo, find out everything about her- he whispered before recovering and putting his serious face again- I think she is ... my destined partner-
The beta made a face that disfigured his face and looked at both the woman and her boss. Now the alpha, if he had gone crazy.
-It's impossible- several exclaimed at the same time, receiving a raised eyebrow from the alpha in response to the new proposal he had given. Falcon was fast and had priorities on his way. Right now, her partner wasn't one of them. But the work and the meeting in front of him. So he had pulled himself together after the shock of meeting that strange woman and was moving on. Still he couldn't help but sneak a peek at her. -In that case I will only have to look for more competent people to develop the project- he said seriously. -Please, President, calm down- one of the executives from the production area spoke somewhat alarmed. Most of them were entering a state of nervous breakdown. If they knew that he was the one who really had reasons to go into crisis but ... -I'm calm- The man swallowed hard before answering again. -What we were referring to is that it is impossible to do all the three-month work in just 15 days, there are
-Mom- the girl ignorant of certain matters walked happily beside her mother -You imagine her being an alpha, or an omega, as she will feel- she exclaimed with enthusiasm and curiosity. -You will be a beta- said the mother with her hard voice, as always. -Mom, you cannot know that, after my accident there is nothing that indicates that it will be beta. You can't be more flexible on the subject- -Don't reply Silver. You will be a beta, I am sure of that and it is better for you, our future depends on today's result- The girl turned her face to the other side with a frown. It was always like that with her mother, it was what she said and nothing more. Why couldn't he be an alpha or an omega, he had heard of the complicated relationships between them, of the ties, of what it would be like to go through a heat, experiencing things outside the majority was more interesting than the basic and routine of betas.
Falcon fell on his bed and reflected on the events of the day that still haunted his mind. The clock read 12:00 at night and he was sure he would not sleep. His body vibrated preventing him from doing so. Every fiber was active in the encounter with that mysterious woman who was hiding more than she appeared. Or maybe he was the one who was wrong. Tomorrow he would call his doctor and friend, everything would have to have an answer and he needed it fast.She heard the door open to the adjacent bathroom and she withdrew her hand from her eyes to see her lover walk out in a low-cut, short dress that left nothing to the imagination. Another man would have been drooling at that moment, his shapely white legs and his skin glistening and still damp from the bathroom. Dulse knew well how to keep her partner ple
Falcon leaned against the doorframe of the Design Office, staring at his supposed destined partner immersed in their work, paying no attention to his surroundings. The alpha's presence was so intimidating that almost everyone realized it was there.-President- one of the other employees exclaimed and the rest of them stopped doing their tasks and got up from their seats nervously. She just looked up from the screen and frowned.The alpha took adva
Silver reflected in the mirror and winced at the state of her hair.Stress was fatal and took its toll on everything, in her, her hair fiber was the one that suffered the most.The shine had diminished and the ends looked parched.So much effort trying to maintain a luxurious mane and in a few days all the work was gone.In the last three days their president had held off, after the somewhat risque conversation, but staying on guard all the time and trying to dodge it, he had set his stress timers to the maximum.He searched his dresser drawer for a pair of scissors.When there was no solution, it was better to cut.He moved the scissors from here to there removing everything that seemed mistreated until he was satisfied.Her mane, which previou
Silver stopped eating his, until now manicured nail, when he felt the slimy liquid with a metallic taste in his mouth.What was missing.He sighed and just a hint of concern he had left her.-Is something wrong, miss?- The taxi driver he had taken when leaving the company seemed worried about his anxiety attack.She nodded gently-I'm fine thanks, just a little stressed- that man had to be a beta, balanced and respectful.He leaned back in the seat and closed his eyes hoping to get home as soon as possible.She had turned off the cell phone so anyone who called her would surely worry, after all she was a woman used to answering even at dawn.
-I need your help-Falcon couldn't believe what his ears were hearing.First, the impression of receiving a call from his partner, who seemed to avoid him at all costs, had amazed him and then he asked for help.-In whatever you want- he answered smiling. He knew he wouldn't have to try too hard.She would get to him on her own.You wouldn't have to move a single finger.And that call was the beginning of everything -What do you want me to do for you? --Do you know any hospital where they do the gender test, safely? -Falcón took a few seconds to reply.If I asked him for something like that, he meant he was doubting that h
The members of the design department looked at each other and swallowed loudly.They had not yet decided who would give the papers to their boss.The reason.Simple.Silver was frowning painfully, and his face warned that he wanted no one around.-Take it yourself- one of the girls patted the back of one of the youngest and the boy only opened his eyes with trembling lips.He approached his boss cautiously.-Director- her voice came out unstable- here is the last analysis-Silver didn't look at him.He reached out, catching the document out of the air to open it and begin to review it.-Thank you- he replied coldly and t
"Speicer, Spanky, grab them," Zacarias's loud voice echoed throughout the yard followed by the barking of two dogs and the screeching of two girls.-I really don't know how you gave your dogs those names.You should be ashamed of yelling it all the time- Falcon passed by carrying a tray to the picnic table they were setting up at the chalet.-I don't want to hear that from you that you wanted to put Baner and Flapi on them- Zacarias complained going down the steps and receiving what his two huge and playful Golden Retrievers brought with them.They each let go of the hem of the two four-year-old girls' dresses and sat down next to them.-The only thing they got out of her
Silver was really shaking that day.His hands were so cold they were stiff.Because the reflection in front of the mirror was something really amazing.She in a white suit while they finished arranging the flowers of the veil.Because yes, that was their wedding day.And she still couldn't believe it.The sound of the door made her react and look over her shoulder.A short woman with a six-month-old belly huge for her size in a simple pastel pink satin suit came into the room."Erika," she smiled at her friend with a huge smile.-You think I would miss my best friend's wedding- she approached and stopped next to him- I'm your godmother, of course I woul
Silver took the hand offered by his alpha to get out of the car in front of the most expensive restaurant in town.Like when your alpha wants to show you that he has money and a lot.I would not criticize him, it was part of his dominant nature to be like that and more when they were courting.Because yes, Falcon was seriously courting her, and he also knew the intentions behind why he had brought her there.He knew him quite well and he was not exactly a sneaky alpha, much less his friend Zacarias who almost yelled at the whole house before leaving that morning.But she wasn't going to ruin his surprise.He was in a very good mood after wondering how Erika had done and Erika had communicated it saying that she had been doing great the whole journey.Zacarias turned out to be a hopeless lover after all and someone who
Zacarias had told her that he would take her to special places, but Erika had no idea where it would be.He didn't owe details even though he had a huge smile on his face.He had to admit that he liked the alpha to pay attention to him.But not like before.Zacarias was always attentive to women, no matter if it was a one-night stand or some date that lasted a week.He seduced both with his actions and with his words.In that he was efficient.That was why Erika had never demanded more of his attention.She feared that if she did, the alpha would put her aside, as he had done with some who had dared to ask for more than he gave them.He was an unpredictable alpha.You never knew how he was going to act and that was what scared him.Besides
Silver stood up after a slight sound he saw from outside the room.She sat up on the bed and pushed her hair back from her face.Beside him Erika slept peacefully.Seemingly carefree although Silver imagined she was tired of the latest events.After all, dealing with an alpha was no game.And less one like Zacarias.He carefully got out of bed and went through the bathroom before leaving.It was no surprise to find her back this time covered in her alpha inside the kitchen.He had been considerate given that they had visitors and it was frowned upon for an alpha to be exposing himself by having a mate.And one more like Silver.Although he missed the almost naked body of his partner only covered by a black boxer cooking in the mornings.So anyone would wake up in a good mood.
Silver shifted on the bed at the piercing sound next to him.He growled in his throat and snuggled closer against the strong chest in front of her.Still the sound didn't stop."Easy," Falcon's hand stroked her head and at last there was silence.Silver fell asleep again, breathing in the pheromones from his alpha.Falcon smiled and turned on the screen.Who the hell was calling at that time in the morning.It was their day off and after working all week they had just wanted to sleep.They hadn't even made love.They had only bathed when they went back to bed.But of course there was always someone who disturbed her tranquility.But when she saw Zacarias's name on the screen, her
If there was one thing that Erika knew very well, it was that she had no intention of going back to Nolan, so she had carefully prepared her plan from days before.Verifying that the alpha was not close, he left their cabin hiding in a small bag with the only thing he needed Zacarias's documents.He did not care about the content.Rather, he didn't want to know.Zacarias was the way he was but at least he didn't think he was up to something illegal.And more knowing Nolan.She walked down the hall with a brisk step and focused on her goal.He wouldn't deny that he was shaking.Her hands felt clammy and clammy and she was covered in a light layer of cold sweat.If he was scared a lot.When he had devised tha
Zacarias couldn't believe his eyes.In front of him was his little girl, no, his little ones because he already felt that those pair of balls that were growing inside her were also his.He couldn't stop his chest from beating but automatically nerves invaded him.-Sir, sir- the voice of one of the managers called him- You need to go to the track-"Shut up," Zacarias turned and growled at him.I was very moody at the time and in a mental dilemma.He had to focus on the most important thing that wasn't exactly his return trip.The woman paled more, kept her mouth shut and lowered her head.She was a simple beta doing her job, she had only come across an alpha with her problems a little out of hand
Zacarias's face, unlike what Erika expected, was one of doubt and then he became thoughtful."Omega?" She tilted her head and her hair to one side.-The same omega that pushed me down the stairs. Are you going to deny that you had nothing with her?If they even talked when you caught me- Erika wiped away her tears letting an uncomfortable feeling fill her.-Ohhh, that crazy woman- she pronounced- Well no, nothing happened with her.I admit that I let him approach me but I told him that I was engaged and would be a future father that I no longer like women who spread their legs to anyone.If you could see the face he made.It feels strange to reject a woman after all but it didn't feel bad- he smiled
