You Are Mine, Omega

Allison P.O.V

"Stop staring at him." My best friend Teresa told me as she shook her head.

I averted my gaze from Ethan Iversen, who was chatting with his friends at the specific table in the right corner.

My eyes were always on him which he could never see.

He was the soon-to-be Alpha of our Moonlight Crown Pack and I was just an ordinary Omega.

I was sitting in the canteen of our school with Teresa. It was our break time so we came here to chit-chat.

I sighed and turned my head to Teresa.

"I was just-"

"Yeah yeah, you were looking around and your eyes suddenly fell on him." She said and chuckled. I smiled and looked away.

Teresa was my best friend. She knew everything about me.

"You are this pack's beta's daughter. He can't let you down." She let out.

I shook my head. "No, I want him to look at me as an ordinary girl, not as his father's beta's daughter."

"You are beautiful. He will love you back for sure. Otherwise, I will break his nec-"

"Ssshhh. He will listen to you." I pressed my hand over her mouth to stop her.

It was time for our next lesson to begin. We walked to the classroom.

It was a Brand Promotion class. The best part was that it was one of the few classes where seniors and juniors could sit together.

I was waiting outside with Teresa when I saw Ethan headed this way.

I gasped and waited for us to enter together, not knowing whether we would be able to sit together.

I was ready to enter the classroom when I felt a push from my right side and collided with Ethan.

He gripped my waist and pulled me up straight. His veiny hands and muscular arms were wrapped around me. I nearly passed out. His warmth completely enveloped me.

My attention was drawn to his fair forehead with a little fringe scattered, a sharp nose, and dark eyes.

"Are you okay?"

I could hear him. I realized I was staring at his attractive features. He was in his fourth year of our 'Moonlight University'.

In contrast, I was a first-year student. Everyone glanced at us as they came to a halt.

I took a step back after clearing my throat.

"Y-Yeah, thank you." I responded timidly.

He nodded and walked inside the classroom.

I could see other girls glaring at me. They were all madly in love with Ethan. He was the most handsome boy they had ever seen and cherry on the top, he was their future Alpha.

But I did not like Ethan due to his attractive looks or posture. I liked him since he once saved my life when I was in danger. Who knows what might have happened if he had not saved me?

"How was that?"

A whisper was heard. I twisted my head and softly punched Teresa's arm.

"Ouch! I was expecting a kiss on the cheek from you. But you are slamming into me!"

My best friend was attempting to matchmake me with Ethan, just as she had pushed me towards him moments ago.

"He will get angry. Teresa, don't do that again."

She sighed and rolled her eyes. "I am not sure how you are going to win his heart with such candor."

I laughed and locked her arm with mine. We walked inside the classroom. The class was completely crowded. I looked for a seat and saw a few vacant chairs. Unfortunately, they were not near Ethan.

We walked to our seats, which were rather far away from Ethan's.

The professor arrived and began our class.

"Dear students, today we will learn how to select the best sponsor for your product. You must choose the best backer for it."

I concentrated on the lesson. I paid close attention in every lesson. I wanted to do well in school and make my parents proud.

"Like Alpha Ethan, he is the face of our school. We are fortunate to have him here." The professor said.

Everyone, including me, was staring at Ethan.

He scowled and said, "Ethan"

The professor was perplexed by what he had just said.

"Y-Yes?"

"Call me Ethan."

"Yes, yes. It's a great honor." The professor grinned.

Everyone tried hard not to chuckle.

"Begin buttering! Everyone around here loves to butter him. Huh!" Teresa murmured.

After hearing her remarks, I burst out laughing. I saw Ethan concentrating on his book. But I might argue that his focus was not on the book and that he was thinking about something else.

He was a reserved person. We were familiar with each other. Not only was my father his father's beta, but he was also his father's closest buddy.

But Ethan had a past.

Ethan was not the son of our current Alpha, Neil Iversen. He was the son of Alpha Neil's brother, Evan Iversen.

However, he lost his parents when he was just five years old. Alpha Neil accepted him totally after that.

Everyone described Ethan as Alpha Neil's shadow. Alpha Neil wanted him to be the pack's next Alpha.

But there was something more.

Alpha Neil has a son as well. He and Ethan were the same age.

Everyone knew Alpha Neil and his son Ryan Iversen had a strained relationship.

Ryan was also someone I knew. I had not seen him since I was eleven years old. It had been almost eight years since his father had sent him abroad.

"Will you go tonight?"

I emerged from my thoughts. "Huh?" Teresa was the one who asked the question.

"Ryan Iversen is returning today. Seniors are giving him a welcoming party."

I scowled. "He is not even a student at our school."

"He will join our school," A girl in my front seat said to us.

"We observed that four pack fighters came to see the Dean today, and a professor told our boys that Ryan is our new transfer student."

"I see." I muttered.

Ryan was not the same as Ethan. He was the complete opposite of him. In our childhoods, I only witnessed him become furious at everyone.

"Will you accompany me?" Teresa asked.

"No."

"Consider it. Ethan is definitely going."

When I glanced at Ethan, I sighed. He was now focused on his phone.

After all the classes, Teresa dropped me off at home since my house was on her way.

I saw there was no one in my house. I dialed my mother's number.

"Mom?"

I said as soon as she received the call. "Where have you gone?"

"Are you back at home, honey? You must be starving. Enter the kitchen. I made you lunch before I came to the pack house."

"Pack house? What brought you there?"

"Ryan is returning today. So Luna Ella contacted me to ask if I could help her in cooking her son's favorite foods. You know how much Ryan used to like my food when he was a kid."

"Okay, mom."

I hung up the phone.

My mother adored both Ethan and Ryan. My mother was also friends with Luna Ella, therefore we were really close family friends. We went to every gathering and celebration together.

I went to my room and took a shower. Following that, I had a late lunch.

Teresa came to my house in the evening. I was dressed casually in blue jeans and a loose black shirt. My hair was pulled back into a high ponytail. I did not want to draw attention to myself.

"Let's go." I said to Teresa.

We hopped in her car and drove to the club where our seniors were throwing the party.

We walked inside the club. My attention was drawn to the smoke and the loud music. I had never been to a club before, so it was a whole new experience for me.

"Let's go out and have some drinks." Teresa remarked, pulling me along with her.

I saw that practically every popular student in our school had attended this party.

Suddenly, I saw Ethan conversing with someone.

"I am coming right away." I said to Teresa before walking up to Ethan.

We were not strangers; we were family friends.

I approached him and came to a halt behind him.

"Ethan"

He turned to face me. I smiled at him, but then I saw his ex-girlfriend Julie standing in front of him.

"Yes?" He asked.

I had no idea what to say to him or how to greet him.

"H-Hi."

He just nodded his head and turned around without replying. I took a step back, but I could hear the girl.

"You know her?"

"Hmm."

"Like she is someone who can be yo-"

"She is not my type."

I overheard his response. Did he know I was still standing behind him? How could he possibly say such a thing to others? I was not his type? Why?

I clenched my fists. My tears had made my eyes glossy.

Nothing was clearly visible to me. I saw a haze. I took a few steps back.

My back was suddenly crushed against a hard chest.

I turned back right away but could not see anything since I was in tears.

I blinked a few times, and my vision started to clear.

I saw a pair of black eyes staring at me.

My gaze was pulled to the facial features.

Black hair, a strong jawline, thick brows, and a fair and clean face.

I saw his eyes going down to my clothes before returning to my face.

Then I heard his deep, icy voice.

"Who are you?"

"Who are you?"

I came back to my senses and backed away from the boy.

"I-I..." I looked away and tried to find my words.

"From your looks, I can say you don't belong here."

I wiped away my tears. I glared at the boy because of his rude statement. My glare made him speechless.

I turned my head to glance at Ethan, who was still conversing with Julie. Then I walked past the boy who had just spoken rudely to me.

He could not possibly claim that I did not belong here.

What exactly did he mean? I could not come to the club because I was not wearing a short dress?

I was also irritated at Ethan. In truth, I was mostly upset with him. I had feelings for him for a long time. But he destroyed my heart without even speaking to me.

I went back to Teresa. She looked at my face carefully and asked,

"What happened?"

"Nothing."

"What nothing? Didn't Ethan break up with her two years ago? Why is he with her now? Or are they just talking about random things?"

"Something like that." I mumbled.

When we heard a boy's voice over the speakers, everyone started cheering for something.

We turned our attention to the dance floor, where a senior year student held a microphone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's meet the most eligible bachelor who drew everyone's attention with a single glance, whose lifestyle is the dream lifestyle for us boys, who returned today to his pack and his pack's people, who will join our school tomorrow to shake all the girls' hearts.

Please welcome Ryan Iversen."

Everyone cheered and applauded loudly.

I almost became deaf when the girls next to me started screaming.

'What's so good about this Ryan Iversen?' I thought.

But my eyes went wide when I saw who Ryan Iversen was.

"It's him!"

I muttered when I saw the boy who I had just bumped into a few minutes ago.

I heard other girls' voices.

"Oh my God! He is so handsome!"

"He is so hot! Look at his hairstyle! He indeed came from abroad with a dashing look and well-built body. Can't ignore his stunning face either."

"I thought only Ethan could be so handsome like this! But now I can say someone is more handsome than him!!!"

"Oh! Come on. Ethan is more handsome. Take a look at him. He will be our Alpha in the future. Ryan can't have the aura he has. And I heard Ryan is a playboy. He only likes to play. The two brothers are totally opposite from each other."

So much bickering was going on here and there among girls where boys seemed envious as they looked at Ryan. It might be because of his carefree lifestyle.

Teresa turned to me and spoke out,

"I can say, a new dumbo joined our school."

I looked at her and chuckled. "Why?"

"Look at this young man. Wasn't his brother enough to cause a drama? Now that he has joined, we can expect more girls to scream over both of them. I believe our students are watching too many school dramas. As a result, they are emulating it in order to experience such drama in real life."

I cast a peek toward Ryan, who had just opened the bottle of champagne. Everyone drew their glasses closer to him.

"One thing I must say," Teresa said.

"What?"

She whispered, "He is indeed more handsome than your Ethan."

I groaned and grabbed her wrist.

"What happened?"

"Can we leave now?"

"Please stay for a while. We just got here. At least for half an hour? Please?"

I could not say no to Teresa. She enjoyed attending parties. Just because I did not like it or was offended by Ethan did not mean I had to spoil Teresa's happy times.

I nodded, and she led me to the bar.

"Just ignore that jerk," Teresa murmured to me, motioning to Ethan.

We sat a bit away from Ethan. He appeared to be in a bad mood. I remembered his mood being low in the morning as well. Did he truly have a rough relationship with his brother?

Julie spoke something to him, and Ethan shifted his tool towards us.

I was surprised when he glanced at me. I could not look away from his deep, dark eyes.

He averted his gaze and returned his attention to Julie before shaking his head. Julie said something again and laughed.

"This girl must be up to something. She is clinging to Ethan like super glue. They broke up and haven't gotten back together after all these times. So, why now?" Teresa said.

"Yeah." I nodded as I did not have the answer either. I glanced at the waiter.

"What would you like to drink, Miss?"

"Water."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

"Okay."

Teresa requested a drink of beer, and the waiter gave me a glass of water. I did not enjoy drinking. It was not like my parents would chastise me for it, but I did not like it.

The loud music began to make people's heads spin. People started dancing as they had never danced before. There were many boys and girls drinking. Some of them began to make out as if it was the best place for it.

Teresa introduced me to two girls named Lily and Eliza. They seemed to be cheerful girls. Teresa encouraged me to join them in the dance, but I refused. I assured her she may go to the dance and that I would wait patiently for her return.

She was first concerned, but Lily persuaded her that I would be fine sitting there.

I could see Teresa dancing on the dance floor. At the party, she was having a fantastic time.

I grinned as I saw her smile and bounce to the music.

I started to become bored after a few minutes. When I took out my phone, I discovered five missed calls.

"Shit!"

I scolded myself when I saw the missed calls from my father's phone number.

Teresa, who was dancing, caught my eye. I did not bother her and went in search of a quiet place to call my father.

I proceeded to the far left side corner of the club. I could hear the music starting to fade as I stepped inside.

But my steps halted when I spotted a guy making out with a girl.

The boy's hands tightened around the girl's waist. His face was buried in her neck.

My phone's screen lit up, and a ringtone began to play.

As if his make-out session had been interrupted, the boy shifted his enraged gaze to my side.

In the dim light, I could see his face.

"YOU!"

"YOU!"

It was none other than Ryan Iversen. I felt disgusted. He had only recently returned to this pack and was already making out with girls!

He arched an eyebrow and replied,

"Yeah, it's me, and for your kind information, it's my party, baby."

I got angry when he addressed me as "Baby".

My phone kept ringing, so I ignored him and continued walking. I came to a stop a short distance away and received the call.

"Dad"

"Where are you, Allison?"

"W-Well Dad, I came to a party."

"A party? What party?"

My father's voice came out desperately. He always cared about me a lot. Since I was an Omega, he and my mother cared about my safety.

"My school's party. I came here with Teresa. So don't worry, Dad. She will drop me off at home."

"That's a relief. You were not receiving calls, so your mom got worried."

"Tell her that I will come back soon."

"Okay, take care and come back safely."

"Yes, Dad."

He hung up the call, and I sighed. I did not tell him that I was in a club. I was not a kid anymore. So they did not need to worry about me.

I turned around to go back to Teresa.

But the moment I turned, I gasped.

"Done talking?"

I glared at Ryan. "You almost scared me to death."

The left corner of his lips lifted slightly. "Well, most of the girls died on my handsome face, baby."

He winked at me and chuckled after seeing my stunned reaction.

He did not look like someone I could mess with. His black clothing gave him a dark aura.

I did not tell him who I was. He might not recognize me, just like I didn't when I first saw him.

I took a step to pass by his side, but he stopped me.

"Where are you going?"

"Let me go," I said with a cold tone.

"Tsk. What about the damage you caused?"

When I heard his words, I looked up at him. He was very tall. He was indeed handsome, but it did not grab my attention. He was not a good boy.

"What damage are you talking about?" I asked.

"You just ruined my sweet time with a beauty. Now who will pay the compensation?"

I was confused. What exactly was he talking about?

He took a step closer to me, and I was startled.

The buttons on his shirt were undone. Under the dim light from behind me, I could see his chest.

"Esto quod es"

It was written across the right side of his ribcage. It was almost six inches high, wrapping around the majority of his side, and it was hard to miss.

Before his body almost touched mine, I pushed his chest hard with my hands.

"Stay away from me."

I rushed out of the corner but bumped into another person.

'How come I keep bumping into people today?' I sighed and grumbled.

Unfortunately, it was Ethan. When he noticed me coming around the corner, he grimaced. When he peered behind me, his expression became solemn.

Ryan appeared around the corner as I turned my head. He smirked at Ethan when he spotted him.

I returned my gaze to Ethan.

"Excuse me."

I moved away from Ethan and reached the dance floor.

Teresa was nowhere to be found. I started to look for her.

To locate Teresa, I continued lightly pushing people on the dance floor.

A hand grabbed my hand and drew me away from the crowd.

"Here you are! Where were you? When I came back to the barside, I could not find you." Teresa said while huffing.

"Dad called me, so I went to take his call."

"I thought I lost you at the club," Teresa said and hugged me.

"Let's go back," I murmured.

She nodded at me, and we went out of the club.

I took a deep breath as the fresh air reached my face.

I felt smothered on the inside until I got out and felt alive.

Partying was definitely not my thing. Clubs were not my place. I was happy with a simple life. These people were not like me. Their lives were drastically different from mine.

We walked to Teresa's car and got in. Teresa started the car.

"Where were you, by the way? I looked for you in almost the whole club."

"I was in a corner."

"Oh. I didn't search the corners. My bad."

"Hmm." I glanced outside.

"Why is your mood off?"

"I met the most ridiculous man I have ever seen."

"Who?"

"Someone who only knows how to disturb girls."

I heard the sound of a chuckle. I turned my head toward Teresa.

"What?" I asked.

"You look irritated. Who made my bestie angry?"

"That Ryan Iversen." I muttered.

"WHAT?" She shouted.

"Hey, stop shouting. Focus on the road. I don't want to die."

"Allison, what did he do?"

"Nothing. I ruined his lovely time, so he asked for a substitute."

"What the hell!"

"Yeah, exactly. I pushed him hard before he could get close to me."

"That bastard!"

I exhaled when Teresa started to curse Ryan.

"Allison, stay away from Ryan. I got to know many things about him. He was a playboy at his last school. Everyone from the outside knows him, especially girls. He is very popular among girls. He does not date but only fu-"

"OKAY OKAY STOP IT."

I shouted and stopped her from telling me more.

"I don't want to hear those stupid things."

"Okay." Teresa shut her mouth and kept driving quietly.

We reached my home. I got out of the car. "Thanks, Teresa."

"I should not have asked you to go with me. I only made you feel bored."

"No, I enjoyed the moment with you. So thanks again. It was a new experience."

Teresa nodded and smiled, then she drove away.

I entered my house and saw my parents waiting for me.

We had dinner together, then I went to sleep.

The next morning, I woke up early.

After I had finished getting dressed for school, my mother insisted that I eat breakfast before leaving the house.

My father chuckled,

"What's the hurry?"

"Dad, I will be late."

"Tell them your father took your time, so you became late."

I shook my head. "Dad, no one knows that I am the beta's daughter."

"Why?"

"I don't want to grab any attention. They will start to treat me differently, which I don't want. Just like they treat Ethan."

My mother spoke out,

"Ryan is also going to join your school."

I nodded and kept eating.

"Luna Ella told me to tell you if you could show him around since he is new."

I paused and thought,

'Yeah, he is new and has started to make out with girls already.'

Suddenly, my father shook his head.

"No, he is not like Ethan. You can be friends with Ethan, but not Ryan. I don't want you to be around him, okay?"

I looked at my father with confused eyes, but then I realized that everyone knew about Ryan's personality. So it was good to be far away from him.

"Don't worry, Dad. I will stay away from him."

My mother did not say anything. We had breakfast silently after that.

I caught a bus to go to school. When I arrived at my school, I noticed that the girls were in a variety of moods. Some of them appeared pleased, while others were depressed.

I was strolling through the hallway. My gaze was drawn to Ethan. Julie was there with him. Their arms were locked, and they headed to a class.

'Did they patch up last night?' I wondered. I felt heartbroken.

I turned aside and went to the locker room. I unlocked my locker but was taken aback when someone slammed the door and stood behind me.

In shock, I turned around.

"What made you think I could not recognize you, Allison Clark?"
