Hyunjin POV:

Darkness surrounds me. I can see nothing but I continue to run. I don’t know what I am running from, but I do know it’s something I should be afraid of. I continue to run until I fall. I fall for what feels like eternity until I hit the ground. My vision is obstructed by the darkness. I get up and through the darkness I can see what is in front of me. Though it is dark all around I can somehow clearly see the golden door with emerald and rubies engraved into it. Fear fills me as I feel the thing I am running from get closer. I have two options: open the door or face what I’m running from. I turn and open the door, as soon as I open the door I feel my eyes flutter shut and I die.

Sweat covered me as I awoke panting from the horrible nightmare that came at least twice a month. Although I do not know what it means I’ve asked myself countless times, I don’t want to tell my mother. She’s been burdened enough since my father, her mate died a few months ago. It was a terrible scene. Since a few hundred years ago people and werewolves have lived in peace. Some of them even get married, but there are people out there who believe that werewolves are monsters, while there are those who believe werewolves are only on the earth to serve a purpose once they have served their purpose they are to be gotten rid of. Thankfully most of those people went into hiding and werewolves and humans can live in peace. But once in a while they come out and when they do they kill and hurt, to strike fear into our hearts. My father was among those brave werewolves who died fighting those people, when they tried to attack our pack. He was an alpha one of the most respected alphas in our pack, while my mother is a beta. When I turned ten I found out my rank just as all werewolves do. I found out that I am an omega, I was sure my father would be disappointed, angry even. As most Alphas hope for an Alpha son or even a beta, omegas are the lowest in rank. They are treated terribly, used to bear children and then disposed of. Even worse I am a male omega, male omegas breed the strongest, healthiest pups. They’re pups will most likely be true bloods, which are even higher ranked than alphas themselves because of this it’s dangerous for them. True bloods are usually put at a risk of being captured by cults, who will use them against their own kind. If humans were to find out about a true blood they would most likely try and kill the whole pack before capturing the true blood pup. To keep his pack safe I expected my father to throw me out, disown me even. But when I told him the news he smiled so bright and hugged me. His words still ring in my ears when I’m upset about being an omega. “Hyunjin omegas’ are amazing. They may be low in rank but that’s just because people are afraid that they’ll rise to the top. So they tie them down, and you’re a male omega! One of the only few left at that. I’m so proud of you. But you need to take extra caution okay?” Ten year old me had nodded and smiled so bright. The memory will never fail to bring tears to my eyes.

“Hyunjin-ah!” My mother screamed from downstairs shaking me out of my thoughts. “Hyunjin-ah hurry up Feilx and Jisung are here already!” I sighed, as I got out of bed to get ready for school. Felix is an male omega just like me his family joined the pack four years ago when I was thirteen. I remember he had forgotten his scent blockers, which are extremely important for an unmated male omega. Their smell is considered so strong it can attract alphas’ miles away. Which will cause the Alpha to forcefully mark you, and then you’ll be mated there’s no going back from being mated. Felix had stood up and gone to the bathroom mid class, and since he sat next to me I could smell his scent. I immediately knew he was an omega no alpha had sweet smells. I quickly raised my hand, hid a few scent blockers in my back pocket and rushed into the bathroom. Where I was met with a crying Felix. I had bent down next to him and handed him the scent blockers. Felix had looked at me questioningly after taking the scent blockers, but then he had hugged me. When he pulled away he was smiling. “You’re an omega too!” Just like that our friendship had begun. I walked to the dresser after changing and applied lotion and my scent blockers. Jisung and I had always been friends. He was like my older brother. It was a mistake, him finding out about me being an omega; but I’m glad it happened ever since then he was overprotective about me around any alpha. When I introduced Jisung to Felix he had started to take care of him too. Making sure no alpha would bother us, even though no one knew we were omegas. He had even stayed back a year in school so that he could protect us. We were never afraid that Jisung would hurt us. He's insistent on waiting for his mate. He hasn’t even dated anyone not that the rest of us have either.

Finally, I stand in front of the mirror, making sure I haven't forgotten anything. “Hyunjin! I swear to god, get down here!” My mother screeched from downstairs. I rushed down the stairs almost stumbling down the steps. When I finally reached downstairs I was greeted by the same sight, as I was most mornings. My mother was in the kitchen, Felix and Jisung were laughing like maniacs and I was just standing there. I walked over to my mother, “Morning Eomma.” I kissed her cheek, and she hit me on the back of my head lightly. “What took you so long?! Your breakfast is going to get cold!” I smiled sheepishly before making my way to the table. My mother brought more plates and yelled at Felix and Jisung to come eat. Though they insisted they had already eaten. My mother yelled at them for lying telling them they need to gain, much more weight to look their age. I snickered lowly at the scene and continued to eat, when we finally escaped my mothers’ countless nagging, we started to walk to school. It was a bit chilly out but my oversized sweater and sweatpants. Block most of the wind. Ever since I found out I was an omega, I’ve hidden my body. It's more like a females’ body, my curves were more defined; no matter how much I tried to gain muscle and get my soft belly to go away it never worked. So like Felix I resorted to wearing oversized clothes, though I didn’t mind. I was never really confident with my body anyway, so having to hide it away seemed like the better option. Jisung and Felix continued to talk while I was lost in my own world as it was most mornings. Finally reaching school we waved each other goodbye and continued walking to our own classes. I expected school to go smoothly as it did most days, but halfway through the day during science. My scent blockers had started to act up. They had almost made it to the end of the day, but it seemed as though I had not applied many because it had started to wear off. Which turned many alphas’ heads’ towards me. Quickly raising my hand I rushed to my locker, many heads’ turned towards me in the hallway. Which most likely meant that my scent was starting to get stronger.

Finally reaching my locker I pulled out Jisungs’ sweater. I ran to the bathroom and exchanged the sweater I was already wearing with his. Jisung was always extra precautious so even though we insisted we didn’t need it he gave Felix and me his sweatshirts, heavily covered in his scent which blocked ours. For a situation like this I’m really thankful he did. His heavy scent blocked out my own. Finally the end of the day came, I walked outside of the prison called school. Felix and Jisung stood waiting for me
