The Hockey Alpha and His Secret Omega

LARA’S POV

I stood like a robot,  watching them in slow motion, as they fornicate like dogs. 

This is why he didn't answer my texts.

However, before either of them could notice me, I stumble away from the door like the handle burned me. Nausea and heartburn crawl up my throat and scald it with acid. The thought of the betrayal eating down to my soul like stab.. 

Being at this party suddenly disgusts me and I wish I never come here today.  So, I start wobbling toward the stairs, leaving could be the best option after all.

I confessed to Reis first, as I have developed feeling for him right from our middle school days. He agreed to my proposal, I gave him my first kiss and believed his words of "I also have feelings for you, but I don't know how to tell you"

 What a joke.

Tears  burn my eyes as I make my way down the stairs. How could he do this in a new year....

The party is now in full swing, everywhere rowdy with happiness of the new year but my mind was chaos.

I have really been foolish to think that Reis would date only me despite being the hottest guy at school. 

I got to the exit and set my hand on my purse to give the security my pass before leaving but my hands tremble, the purse fell to the ground. 

Will I really leave this place while the boy I love fuck another girl?

No. 

The urge to leave disappears and I pick the purse to go back in there and claim my man, however, just as I was about to set into the entrance of the building, somebody pushes me backward, and the back of my ankle catches on someone else's foot.

 There's no one to stop me from falling onto a table. I don't see what's on it, but apparently it's packed with food. My weight is the last straw. The table bends in, and suddenly everything crashes on me.

"Argh!"

Bread crumbles against my arms as I try to cover my face. Some sweet paste smears into my hair and the taste lands on my lips and I feel something cold against my skin.

Ice cream!

My face, hair, clothes...everything I'd tried to do to look nice for Reis is now covered in Ice cream.

My chest hurts so badly from the humiliation and the party lights added blur to my eyes because my Harry Potter doppelganger had fling away to some corner. 

"Are you okay?" 

"Did you need help?" I heard voices ask above me and I look up through my blurry sigh and I start seeing familiar shadows of my classmates hover around me.

We had chose to come to Reis's place for the new year celebration while school resumes next week. I had thought of just celebrating at home with Dad and Brian, but the thought of seeing Reis's home for the first time after months of our so called relationship made me come here after the little celebration at home.

I just made the biggest mistake of my life. Only if I hadn't came here, then I won't meet with this kind of humiliation. 

They all ask me if I need help, but none of the them offered thier hands. Hot strings of tears run down my cheeks. 

However through the crowd, I could still identify that particular shilouette as two  people saunter easily through the crowd to watch my spectacle.

It's Reis Shade, the cheater I gave my heart to, his arms around the girl he was in bed with, both dressed elegantly as if nothing had happen.

She leans on Reis's shoulder as he speaks. "Lara? What are you doing, you look like a mess!"

An invisible hammer banged on my head and immediately, headache stuck my head as I eyed him dangerously as if to ask, is this how you address your girlfriend when she's on the floor, covered in ice cream?

My eyes burn more as his fingers curl with the other girl's, she giggles happily like she'd won a lottery and I instantly arrive at the conclusion that I'm not only foolish, I had wasted my time with the wrong man. 

I don't answer him. Instead, I try to scramble up and flee from his place, because suffocation from the betrayal I'm witnessing feels as I'm being thrown into a fish pond.  But the icing is too slippery. My shoes slide against the floor without purchase, and I fall forward. My shoulder smacks against the ground, getting more covered in cake and ice cream and pain rents my body again.

Someone snorts, then a few people are laughing. When I look up, phone cameras stare at me like piercing eyes. Bile wells up in my mouth.

"Guys stop that" Reis begins. Through my bangs, I see he's talking to the others, trying get them to put their phones away. "She's our classmate too"

They all stare at him, "Hey, Reis. Don't tell me this... This is the outcast? That nerd with Harry Potter doppelganger goggles?

He nods, like he was disappointed to even see me like this. The girl  pulls him back close to her, "I have told you migrate to B class, now look at these leeches spoiling our fun"

Reis smiled at her brightly, "When school resumes next week, I'm definitely coming to B class"

A sob unwillingly chokes in my throat, right as I feel a hand curl around my bicep. No one knew that we're both from the same middle school and that we're dating, basically because he's the school star boy and I'm just a nerd, or basically an outcast that seems to.bw invincible to the whole class because I don't have any friends. 

"Okay, okay, c'mon. That's enough fun, guys," Reis fusses, with some people booing him playfully. "Hey, let's get you home, okay?"

His fingers dig into my arm,  the sensation taking me back to a dark place. My hands go numb, but I can only struggle to stand as he pulls me up. No one notices how roughly he's treating me...or maybe they don't care because he's everyone's crush. 

I know Reis does. The look on his face isn't unremorseful, it was guilt and panic packed because he knows that any word from me, then he's done for. 

I do his classworks and assignments, while I come the first position in the whole school, he comes third while someone takes the second position. 

My name being on the first position in the whole school seems to have became an imprint and that's why no one even know I existed, except Reis who used me, only to humiliate me like this?

I yank his hand away from mine when I'm finally balanced on my feet and my vision adjusted to the environment now. 

"Hey let me call my driver to...." He offered, his eyes not leaving mine but I rolled my eyes at him and stomp out of the place with tears running my eyes. 

I'm really invincible. Not even classmates know me despite being the top student, and  the hottest guy's girlfriend. 

Just some steps to the subway station, some instinct pulled me to the gate of the gigantic KINGS HOTEL.

I don't want to think, I let my legs lead until I stopped at the bar and grabbed the cup of tequila before the barman. 

I drowned the cup hurriedly, the acrid taste of the liquid burning my throat and I instantly feel like crying. 

The barman too the cup, but I snatched it back "Give me more!" I yell. 

"I have to see your ID card first" he demands. 

His words only made my anger take new heights as I shot him a glance, "Did I look invincible to you too?"

He frowned, and faced the other customers. I guess I'm really cursed to be invincible to everyone. 

Just as I was about to stand up from the table, a hand circled my waist from behind, I looked back urgently, but my vision couldn't comprehend the kaleidoscope of colors upon the dancefloor, all I could see was a very handsome guy standing behind me.

He looks so Reis... No. I shook my head and wiped my face, to see clearly. 

He leaned closer, "Did you need help?" 

The voice spreads some chills to my spine. The kind of chills that I have whenever Reis hugs me. 

I look up and clutched his tie, "Reis Shade, did you see me now?" 

He smirks, "Only a blind man won't see someone as curvy as you" 

I let my body lead me again and pulled him closer, his lips locked into mine.....

I don't want to care. Even if it's not Reis, so far he sees me for me, then I have no problem. 

Just like that, I met myself on a soft comfy bed, getting smooched by Reis...and perhaps not him.

But whoever it is, I don't want to know.
