Omegas
Vanessa’s pov,
After a short while the room filled with other people. I saw 4 men and 6 other females, and they all came to me to introduce themselves. I wondered whether Tomasso instructed them to be decent to me or something because I was used to being ignored. I watched them from my bed for a while and was surprised by how confident they all looked. An omega is the lowest of the pack and normally there is a reason for it like weakness or sickness. But maybe the leading pack was so strong that even the omegas were strong wolves. On the bed next to me a woman with short red hair sat down. She introduced herself before as Lianna.
“We are going to eat soon after that go for a run, in wolf form while the sun goes down. Would you like to join?” she asked.
I held my breath and Spirit immediately howled with excitement, “Can we go? Can we go? Please say yes!” I looked at Lianna with big eyes because I had never been invited for a pack run before. All I could manage was a nod, but Lianna didn’t seem to care and just held out her hand to take me to the kitchen. In the kitchen, there was a big table now filled with ingredients to build your own tacos. I sat down next to Lianna and devoured the food. After my worst hunger was stilled, I listened to all of them talking and laughing. I was never allowed to eat with the pack, so this feeling was totally new to me. I had to admit that I enjoyed it.
After dinner, I helped with the dishes, and then it was time to head out to let our wolves take out some energy. Behind the mansion, there was a big forest and one by one everyone transformed and ran into the trees. I quickly let Spirit take the lead and full of energy she ran after the rest. Spirit followed all the different smells of the omegas and rushed by the trees. Her paws went faster and faster making the distance between her and the wolf in the front smaller. Her heartbeat quickened but it was a feeling she longed to feel. Spirit picked up the speed even more and rushed past the wolf in front which had auburn fur almost red. She ran further and further all the way onto a hill, at the end there was a cliff where she stopped. Panting she looked at the view from the cliff. Under the hill, there was a beautiful lake and right at that moment, the sun went down. The wolf with auburn fur walked next to the spirit and she instantly felt it was Lianna in wolf form. In her head, she heard a voice say, “Hi I am Ember. Lianna’s wolf.”
Spirit looked into her eyes surprised, “Why can I hear you in my head?” Ember seemed amused, “it is called a pack connection. Have you never experienced it before?” Spirit looked at the ground and responded embarrassed, “No, I have not.”
Ember looked at her with pity and kindness and Spirit put her nose high to the upcoming moon and howled. She howled long and hard thinking about all the things that had been denied to her. Ember followed her howl and the other omegas started howling one after one. Howling all together in harmony gave Spirit the feeling that for the first time she wasn’t alone.
After that, they all ran back to the mansion and when I turned back to my human form exhaustion fell over me. I dragged myself to my bed and quickly made myself comfortable. Lianna went into bed not much later and I couldn’t help asking, “Why are you all so nice to me?”
The lights went out, but I still heard Lianna reply, “A wolf pack can only function by unity, and it is as strong as its weakest member.”
I thought about those wise words for a while before sleep took over me. The next day I woke up at 5 with the other omegas and ate breakfast with them. I wondered what work I would be doing today but I wasn’t going with the other yet because Tomasso came in and asked for me. “Good morning, Vanessa, hope you slept well. I thought it would be best to give you some information before you go work with the rest.”
“I slept well thank you. And that sounds like a good idea,” I said. I followed him through the mansion and every room I saw was even more beautiful than the one before. At some point, we passed a door where it said, “Forbidden territory.”
“What is behind that door?” I asked Tomasso. I think I saw a shimmer of regret on his face when he looked at it but it was gone quickly so maybe I imagined it. He hesitated and then answered, “That is where the breeding wolves are kept. Alpha Don Lorenzo takes their safety very seriously so only a few are allowed in.” A wave of disgust went through my body, and I promised myself I would find a way to visit them to see if they were alright.
Eventually, we arrived at Tomasso’s office. It didn’t look as fancy as the rest of the mansion just simple and practical with wooden furniture and lots of books. Tomasso sat down behind his desk, and I sat down facing him. He gave me a paper with the family tree of the Romano pack on it. He started telling, “The Romano pack originally came from Italy but settled here many years ago. Nowadays the territory is as big as half of the USA. The other half is controlled by the Latin American packs. The Romano pack has provided jobs and business to all the Italian wolf packs in our territory. Legally we own casinos and restaurants where our people can work. But the biggest money flow comes from the business of making and selling drugs and tobacco. Besides that, we offer protection to human businesses in our territory. The making of the drugs and tobacco is done by the omegas of the pack whereas the rest of the pack focuses on delivery and protection. So first you will learn from the other omegas how the production side works and if you have good potential maybe you have a chance to work yourself up.”Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
I listened to Tomasso eagerly and saved all the information in my head. “What about other packs in the world?” I asked him. Tomasso laughed, “I like your eagerness for information but let’s focus on this pack first. I will tell you more when the time is right.”
I nodded and followed him out of the office to a basement where the omegas should be working. Tomasso stopped in front of a big iron door and said, “This is where I will leave you for now. Good luck.” I opened the door and walked in feeling full of ambition and fighting energy. I was going to work my ass off and show them that I had the potential to become something great!
