บททั้งหมดของ Alphas in Aquila: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Leda had acquired her history lessons in school as well as anyone else,but that didn’t mean all the questions about her world had been resolved.Details of the thousand-year war that had destroyed humanity had beendiscussed to exhaustion. Those who survived had been forever changed bythe biological and viral agents that were used without approval by all sides asthe world dissolved in war. But huge gaps existed in the fossil record,so it was impossible to know how far they had come from their ancestors.She had wanted to explore history at the College, perhaps become anacademic or a researcher and unearth the secrets that hadn’t withstood thegreat wars of the past. According to the archive records, the people of Earthpast had used nuclear energy not to power their world but to destroy it. Thatdestruction had forced civilization into the sky patterns and off of thelarge swathes of the planet too injured by fallout and radiation to beha

In a motion too fast to follow, the Alpha grabbed her around the waist and plucked her across his lap. He was so much huger than her that her entire physique fit across his thighs, with just her forearms and the lower part of her legs left swiveling. She battled against him but the halo of his arm might as well have been compelled by an iron.“I am going to whack you,” he informed her as if talking with something as commonplace as the climate.“I don't expect you to enjoy the grief, you little Beta, but the more you resist then the more punishment you will receive.” He said still holding her.I don’t want you to enjoy the pain. He could not mean it, she thought frantically. Is this what got the Alphas in the Aquila to blow their loads…physical misuse? She had anticipated a bruising rut from a giant Alpha, and a little pain was to follow that, but this was something different entirely.Still Panicking, Leda

Next, Leda scanned the archives, looking for information on Omegas dynamic. She had averted her mother’s sermons for years and, even after they passed away, she never bothered to prepare herself further. After her early heat cycle, she’d had no intention of ever living a life of an Omega so what reason could there be in knowing what that entailed. Omegas had invariably been very rare. She knew that only an Omega that could give birth to another one, regardless of the dynamic of her spouse.Clearly, there had been a few issues in the past of male Omegas but that was even rarer than an Alpha female, which rarely existed.But prevalent poverty in the lower levels had murdered the birthrate, vastly decreasing the number of any children born, but particularly Omegas. Even with that, fewer Omegas were birth to each passing year even when the total birthrate remained constant.. Different researchers had laid claim to the purposes for the decrease — pollutio

The file opened to a picture of the Leda’s face. She was lovely, but not the most beautiful that he had ever seen. Although, it was not her visual appeal that had him so caught, that had forced him to ask a favor of the Undersecretary and endure the man’s offensive fume in his office.It had been her scent. Not as full-blown as the irresistible pheromones contained in Omega lub, but softer as if it had been transmitted from afar on the wind. And that small hint, of something deeper and more genuine, kept him excited.It wasn't a secret that he had little patience for the bootlicking and status enthusiasm of government types. Unfortunately, he needed them almost as much as they desired him. It was government funds that made up the pile of dollars that his empire was presently sitting on.He had built a plant that supplied most of the air purifiers to the Aquila. The devices were all that kept the atmosphere breathable in a place that would have otherwise been a filthy wasteland

Leda did not believe in souls, or that they could be linked together in some metaphysical way. But pair-bonding ceremonies were common. The male would bite his mate, while friends and family watched, and then rut(fuck) her in front of the assembled crowd. Leda supposed the whole thing to be completely atrocious and disgusting. As far as she was concerned, the pair-bonding ceremony was just an alibi that Alphas used to make a public show out of claiming their mates. There was no such thing as a heart connection between two people.The door chimed, shaking Leda from her trance. She realized that she had been wiping the same area on the counter for the past minutes. She looked up to find Selene still eyeing her, expression smug. “Why don’t you take this one, honey? It looks like you could use the distraction.” said Selene.“Thanks,” Leda murmured. She wished to add for nothing but avoided the urge. Leda pushed off the counter, wiping her hands on the ap
