The Lycan King's Omega Mate

Kemira-

My name is Kemira, and I’m a mess. At least, that is what everyone tells me. I’m almost twenty years old. I work at the pack house. Both my parents and my older brother have beta blood coursing through them. But I never got my wolf on my eighteenth birthday. My parents all but ignore me. My brother finds every chance to humiliate me when he is around his friends. I hate it here. I am waiting for the first opportunity to leave. Yet I am watched like a hawk. The only person who was ever nice to me was Luna Fiona. She was killed by rogues protecting my lack of a wolf. So the entire pack hates me for that reason.

“I’ll never understand why Luna gave her life for such a useless omega. I mean, she doesn’t even have a wolf. She should have died instead of Luna.” I’m in the bathrooms scrubbing them, and I hear Gemma and her followers outside talking. I hold my breath, trying not to move an inch. But I know they smell my scent. Wolves have a great sense of smell and sight.

“There you are! The alpha is looking for you, runt. You better hurry.” Gemma stands on my hand as I remain silent. Not giving in to the pain. If I show her, it gets to me. She loves it even more. She bends over and grips my hair. “Why don’t you just run away. Or end your life altogether. No one here wants you.”

“Gemma, where is she? My father is not to wait!” An angry Alpha Lev turns into the entrance to the women’s bathroom. He is stunning and even angry. His grey eyes and dark brown hair are just like his mom's. His chiseled jawline and large musculature. That is all his dad, Alpha Leopold. Gemma grinds her heel into my hand as I grimace in pain, and then she releases me.

“Yes, babe, I found her. Goofing off on chores.” Gemma lies. She has been dating Lev since forever. She plans to be Luna, but they are not mated. So she is waiting for him to claim her as his mate. I have had a crush on him my entire life. Especially with my brother being his best friend and future Beta. Yet, they all hate me because of losing Luna.

“Get in his office now!” he yells at me.

“Yes, Alpha.” I jump quickly, not making eye contact. Gemma trips me, and I fall to the floor. My hands are raw and bruised, but I am used to it.

“Such a clumsy waste of space.” She continues as she walks over to Lev and holds on to him. He pulls her close, and I hurry by them. I hear them all laughing as I rush to the Alpha’s office. It’s crazy because when we were kids, Alpha Lev and I were really good friends. When he would train with my brother, he always invited me along. Then Gemma transferred from her grandfather’s pack. The moment she saw him, she wanted him. No matter. I saw many evil things happen at her hands to other girls. But Lev seemed to fall for her even more. They were meant to be.

I make it quickly to Alpha Leopold’s office. I knock, awaiting his permission to enter. I find my parents in there as well as my brother. They all stare with hatred in their eyes at me. I am the embarrassment of the family. Both of my parents are of beta blood. My brother is a beta, and it’s been almost two years since my eighteenth birthday, and no wolf. Making me an omega. The lowest of the low. The omegas cook, clean, farm…all the manual labor.

Next, Alpha Lev and Gemma enter the room. I stand in the middle, wearing my tattered cleaning uniform. My hand-me-down shoes.

“Kemira, thank you for finding the time to grace us with your presence. It’s been brought to my attention that your birthday is coming up. If you haven’t found your mate, we will need to find some way for you to work off your debt.” He begins.

“Debt? What debt?” I speak, and he puts out his aura through gritted teeth. I flinch as if in pain. I feel nothing, though. His power doesn’t affect me, but I know if I tell anyone, they will make my life much worse.

“Yes, your debt for taking the life of my mate. For doing your evil work to trick my Luna into thinking you need help. Luckily, Gemma was there to tell us what happened. Otherwise, we would never know of your true evils.”

That has been the story. I lured Luna into the forest. She tried to save me, and I ran, leaving her to fight off four wolves. I told them that’s not what happened, but Gemma told them she saw it all. They took her word over mine. I’ve no clue because she has hated me so. But the entire pack believes her, and I am nothing but pure evil.

“But…” I begin, then I hear my father growl.

“Do not interrupt your Alpha. You are lucky he doesn’t put you in the cells!” My dad, Beta Baldwin, speaks with such anger. I look to my mother, whom I have the same stone white hair. The same golden-brown skin. She looks at me in disgust. I look to the floor, accepting whatever they say. I just know the first moment I get, I will run. There is nothing here for me. I have no wolf to comfort me. I am truly all alone.
