Scarlet
"Hahaha… What happened? Couldn't get up?" I asked mockingly at the Omega who passed by before me, and I tripped. Yes, you heard me right. I intentionally tripped her and laughed at her with my friends.
When she got up, she asked, "What did I ever do to you?" The students looked our way and started to gather around us. Omega was teary and looked pitiful.
"I don't know what you are talking about," I replied, as pitiful as she sounded. My friends and I stop laughing and play along with her act.
"You tripped me," she said, crying. I wanted to laugh as loud as possible, seeing how much she tried to cry but couldn't. That's how she is and the other Omega who thought less of me.
"I don't understand what you are saying. Is it because everyone knew how bad I was, so you're doing this to me? You're accusing me of doing something I didn't and blaming me for your weakness."
"You!" my friend Alice said, pointing her finger at the Omega. "Don't act pitiful because that won't work," she added.
Alice is my best friend, along with her twin, Neri, the beta daughters. While others hate me for being the pack's bully, they love me like their family. Their brother, Jasper, is 20 years old and is now the pack's beta.
I am Scarlet Harris, 17 years old, soon to be 18, and the pack gamma's daughter. I have a little brother, Carlson, who will eventually succeed my father's title when he ages. He'll be 18 next year and is now doing his training as a gamma under my father's supervision. My father, Carl, who hated me, and it's not a secret to the entire Crimson Pack, is still the gamma.
Why did Dad hate me? Because he was thinking that I was not his daughter. My mother had a boyfriend before he found her as his mate. He had been hostile to me ever since I was young, and when my mother died, he showed me his true colors. He never beat me up, but he was always shouting at me, even if there were other pack members around.
I often heard omegas make fun of me, especially when I didn't get my wolf when I turned 16. I felt devastated and heartbroken that time, and I was looking forward to my father comforting me, but that didn't happen. He was so angry that he even announced to the pack that I was not his daughter but my Mom's lover. Since then, everyone has looked at me differently. Many didn't consider me their pack member. How much more is their gamma's daughter?
"What's going on here?" a voice behind us echoed in the corridor. We all looked at the owner and had our heads down. Actually, we didn't need to look. The newcomer's aura made it evident who he was.
"Alpha," everyone said, except me. I don't like him because he was always with his woman. He's not my mate, but I hate men who fuck women when they know they have their mate somewhere. But that doesn't mean that he's not fucking hot. Every she-wolf likes him. They wanted to be under his sheet.
Every time we see each other, something in me pulls me to him. But I always ignore that since I don't know what it is called. I'm scared of getting close to the opposite sex, especially when they are from this pack. Why? because I knew that they would only mock me for not having a wolf. They all want strong mates, especially our Alpha.
Alpha Xavier needs or even wants a strong Luna. Maybe it was the reason why that bitch Madison never left his side.
"Are you not going to answer?" he asked again, putting me back in a trance. He's very intimidating and authoritative, a true alpha. And no matter what we do, we couldn't help but submit to him. But because everyone thinks I'm the pack's black sheep, I had to live up to their expectations.
"Alpha, it's Scarlet; she tripped me," the Omega said, making me roll my eyes internally.
"Are you not going to say anything, Scarlet?" he asked, and I knew his eyes were on me as always. I noticed he always looked at me differently whenever we saw each other. It was so different that I didn't know whether it was good or bad. He's handsome, so I understand why women were so into him. Besides his face, his beautiful and masculine body could make every woman feel secure in his arms. And above all, he's the fierce and ruthless Alpha the entire region feared and looked up to.
"No, alpha," I replied in a low voice, and in my peripheral view, I saw the bitch omega smirking. She knew no one would believe me if I tried to defend myself. And since I deliberately tripped her, I think the best thing to do is not to say anything.
"In my office, with your father." I hated him and liked him at the same time. But this was also one of the reasons why I hated our Alpha. He always made me go to his office. He invited my father, even though he knew I would only receive mockery and scolding from Dad.
