Chapter Text
"Get the fuck away from her!" I screamed, bearing my teeth and claws.
The alpha looked up and his eyes widened. I’m sure he could smell me before he saw me, but they’ve all learned to be afraid of seeing me come at them. He dropped Mi Mi and began to run. I didn’t bother looking to see if she was all right because I could smell relief in her cinnamon and apricot scent. I’ve spent years teaching myself to distinguish even the smallest changes in the way she smells. I took off at full speed to catch him. I have to admit he's fast, but I'm faster. I tackled him to the ground, turning our bodies so I could straddle him. I punched him in the head, once to stun him and another time to make sure he didn't get back up. Even though I only used some of my strength, he looked like he was about to pass out. His eyes fluttered and were clouded.
"Weak ass alpha!" I spat, getting off of him.
I extended my claws again and slashed him deeply on the left side of his face. He cried out in pain. I wiped the blood from my hands onto his jacket. I like to leave vertical scratches from alphas' hairlines to the corner of their mouths. It's like my calling card. It says this alpha's ass was kicked courtesy of Alphabet. Usually, their wounds heal without scarring, but I like it when they don't. I love it when they have to carry the shame of being beaten by me for the rest of their lives.
"Hey, Mi Mi?"
"Yeah?" She replied as she appeared next to me and put her head on my chest. She wasn’t harmed by this worthless alpha, just shaken up by the encounter.
"Want to finish him off?" Her eyes lit up at my offer and she nodded excitedly. "Go on then."
I smiled back at her. She is adorable when she's excited. I love doing anything I can to make her happy because she is my favorite person in the entire world. Mi Mi walked up to the semi-conscious alpha and lined her feet up with his head.
"Just like I showed you, sweetie."
She nodded and swiftly kicked him in the side of the head. He groaned loudly before he blacked out.
"Good girl! I knew you could do it."
She beamed at me and my world felt right. She jumped into my arms and I spun her around. Despite the fact that I often compliment Mi Mi because her omega craves praise, I really am so proud of her. I have been slowly trying to teach her to take care of herself. It hasn’t been easy. Omegas are taught to be submissive and obedient. We live in such a fucked up culture. If an alpha wants one of us, we basically have to give in to them. If we don't want to date, it doesn't matter. If we don't want to have sex, it doesn't matter. The only thing that matter is what the alphas want. I fight every day to make sure she doesn’t fall victim to that mindset. I shook my thoughts loose when I heard Mi Mi calling my name.
"What's up, sweetie?"
"I'm dizzy, Ji Ji! And his blood got on my shoes!"
I stopped spinning and leaned closer to her face. "Aww... Well, we'll have to get you cleaned up. If we can't clean it up, then I'll just have to buy you some new shoes." I smiled brightly when her eyes lit up. This little omega is my whole world.
She thanked me half a dozen times, giving me a kiss on the cheek. I chuckled and nuzzled her nose. The cloyingly sweet scent of apricots filled me, calming me down from the rush my wolf was feeling. She’s the only thing that can get me to chill out or stop fighting once I’ve started. The bell rang, bringing us back to reality. Mi Mi had wrapped her whole body around me as I spun her, so our classmates came out to see us in an intimate embrace.
"Get a room!" Sung Ji Ae screamed out jokingly. Mi Mi giggled and climbed off of me.
Ji Ae's twin brother called out to Mi Mi as they stopped in front of us. "Why are you with that freak when you could be with me?"
His smirk and wink made me sick. I thickened my scent and growled loudly enough for him to hear me. Usually, the orange blossom in my smell overpowers the balsam but, when I'm angry, the slightly bitter and woodsy balsamic undertones become pungent. Ji Ae's eyes widened as she cowered behind her brother. Mi Mi didn’t bother releasing calming pheromones because she knew that I might need to fight again if Ji Tae decided to press the issue.
"Back the fuck off, Ji Tae." My voice dropped half an octave as I made myself look as imposing as possible.
Other omegas around me walked away, except Mi Mi. She isn't afraid of me. Other alphas watched, but didn't gather around like they normally would. They knew better than to fuck with my fights. Usually, alphas would form a circle and instigate violence. Anytime they tried it with me, they all got hurt. Alphas are all lone wolves who like to watch people fight if they're not fighting themselves. Too bad they can't cooperate for shit. If they all teamed up on me, they could probably kill me. But I know that can't happen for a few different reasons. I’m Alphabet. They wouldn’t dare go against me. I heard Ji Tae start to walk towards me, but stopped when he saw the bloody alpha on the ground next to me.
"Just fuck off, Alphabet!" He growled at me, took Ji Ae's hand, and walked away.
Mi Mi grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the cafeteria. "That's two alphas starting shit in one day. You think they've synched their ruts like omegas synch their heats?" She cackled at her statement, making me laugh too.
"That's the last thing we need. Could you imagine the whole school filled with those disgusting hormonal meatheads? We would have to home school all of the omegas for almost a week! Wait, maybe that's not a bad thing. Hey, Mi Mi, how do we synch their ruts again?"
"Anything to get out of this hell, huh?" She said in between bites of her lunch.
"I'd like a break every now and then. It's not easy being Alphabet."
She rolled her eyes. "That's the dumbest name."
"I've started to like it, really. I love it when these alphas run from a guy named Alphabet. I mean, who the fuck is scared of someone named Alphabet?" I howled with laughter, a small tear forming in the corner of my eye.
Mi Mi smiled and rolled her eyes again. "Remember you're not just Alphabet. You're Ji Min, my Ji Ji."
"I know, sweetie. Even if I can't remember, I'll have you to remind me for the rest of my life."
"You're damn right!" She cuddled up to me and laid her head on my shoulder.
"I'm glad we love each other so much, Mi Mi."
"Yeah, me too. Being life mates would suck if we didn't."
