In the Bar

"I still can't believe he did something like this", Michelle said while taking a sip of his drink.

Whirling the wine in the glass, Luke just 'hummed' as a reply while giving a deep drowning stare to the glass as if he wasn't even listening to Michelle and was roaming in the world of his own thoughts.

With a little scuff, Michelle further continued, "I bet, that bastard will freak out once he will come to know that you are an omega and not a beta..."

"Stop saying it out aloud Michelle", Luke interrupted.

"Oh come on. Not like anyone knows you here. What are you afraid you,huh? Everyone here is just busy with themselves", Michelle kept his point, " I know being a dominant omega is a real big deal but you don't have to keep the guard on all the time".

In reply, Luke just stared at Michelle blankly as if he himself didn't know, why he was like this, but...

But deep down, not too deep not to be recalled, he knew the answer.He knew why he was always so alert, always on guard.

If hiding your identity would have been necessary to keep yourself safe, you would have also done this. Would have tried to keep yourself safe. Would have hidden your identity even if you would have known the fact that how 'special' you are because this 'speciality' might bring danger to you.

...Flashback...

It was the time when Luke was of 14 and was doing his middle schooling. It was school's annual medical camp day and the second genders of the students were to be determined that day.

As every common person would be excited for this event that is absolutely a big part of everyone's life, Luke was also, and was getting ready to go to school.

In this world, along with the gender male and female, sub genders or second genders also exists, that are the alphas, the betas and the omegas. Betas are the most common among them while the dominant omegas are very rare because they are produced only when two omegas mate. Even being a male, omegas can bear babies just like females . While Omegas can be recognised by beautiful famine body, alphas are marked as the strongest males and are known for masculinity. One's sub-gender can be determined at the age of about 14-15 years. Most of the people prefer to be an alpha as they rule the society.

Getting back to the story, as Luke was about to leave the house for the school, he heard some noises from his parents' room that caught his attention because the topic of their 'talks' was Luke.

"But what if he won't be an omega?!", Mrs. Astor, Luke's step-mom was yelling on someone who probably was no other than Luke's father.

"Darling believe me, his mother was a rare omega herself. I am sure, if not a dominant one, he surely would be a submissive omega atleast", Mr.Astor said assuring his wife.

"That better would be the reality or raising this piece of trash for all these years would go in vain", said Mrs.Astor annoyingly.

"Don't worry love. Once he will grow up, we will sell him for a huge amount of money. That omega is our golden egg laying hen, just bear with him for a few more years".

Hearing something like this was indeed a big shock for Luke. Even if he knew that his step-mother do not like him but he had not expected something as cruel as this from his father.

Although his father was not an omega but because his mother was a rare one, call it his luck, he was also an omega.

Trying to control his tears, clenching his school bag, Luke ran out of the house and did not go to school that day. Later, by the school's off time, he came back to school and told that he came out to be a beta and the written reports will be out in about a week. Afterwards, he went to some hospital with Michelle and got his gender checked and Dang! He came out to be an omega! And a dominant one! But Michelle somehow managed to get the fake reports and luckily, Luke's parents were convinced by the reports. Although they were very annoyed because it shredded their dreams of coating themselves with dollars but God knows, why they still let Luke live at their home.

...Flashback Ends...

"You have done so much to hide your identity", Michelle said while raising his hand, signalling the bartender for an another drink.

Luke 'hummed' again as a reply as if he wasn't interested in talking about this topic.

"Wasn't getting all these piercings and tattoos painful?", asked the curious Michelle.

"Hmm.."

"Hey! Are you evening listening to me?", Michelle gave Luke a shove, when he found him not paying very much of attention to his words.

Talking about the Michelle's question, Luke had got some piercings in ear, lips and eyebrow and also got some tattoos, basically to look a little less like an omega. Moreover he keeps on a kind of a bad boy look because it provides him more of a masculine look. He prevents talking with others and behaves coldly, rather than Michelle because he has been with him, before he found his sub-gender.

"Let's go back. It's getting late, we have college tomorrow", saying so, Luke got up from his seat.

"Hey stop! Now you are running away, leaving me here!", Michelle shouted from behind as he ran towards Luke after paying.

They left the bar, thinking that no one heard their conversation, but little did they know, that their each and every word had reached the ears of someone other than they two.

"Carlos, get me the information of the brunette haired boy who was sitting right beside me", said a woman who was probably in her 40s, dressed in a way that gave out a bossy kind of vibe with a smooch of elegance.

The guy with her, who seemed as some kind of manager or PA, bowed as signal of carrying out her order which tells us that the woman would must be having some high links.
