I was trying to remember the interview answers that I had memorized. The unnatural sounding words came through my mind as I knew corporate jargon had nothing to do with what I, the employee, wanted to achieve. I wanted to achieve so much and--"I'm very happy to welcome you to the team, Mrs. Spitz.""It's Miss." I correctly him softly."But, your paperwork says here firmly that you are married to an Alpha for the past five years." His finger taped the clipboard in confirmation.I bristled. "The recruiter said it would increase my chance of getting an interview if . . ."His voice deepened. "...you lied on the form. Ms. Spitz, do you know what I do to liars?"Well, I did have an annullment," I said in a panic. Why had I made that up? I could feel my fists clench into balls as I reminded myself that I needed this job. I needed to find a way in. I was determined that my status wouldn't hold me back."Well in that case, Miss Livia Spitz, welcome to the team. I am Dr. Manfred D

But, somewhere, my doubts still stirred. "Then? Sir, did I get the job? I am not sure by your actions. Your words say yes, but your body language says no.""Do you not understand? Let me spell it out for you, wait for the badge and then it will be real to your primal beta mind."A retort was on the tip of my tongue, but I nodded as he ushered me out.=//=I had finished another shift at the Italian restaurant when I finally checked my mailbox. I usually dreaded checking my mailbox as it was usually people asking me for money that I barely had to begin with. I could see the negative balance in my account that gave me so much anxiety.But when I took in a deep breath and then tried to unlock my mailbox. My key was stuck and then somehow as it jammed, I shoved my shoulder into it and my box opened showing me the id card had been on the side which had caused it to become stuck.I took out the id and looked at my own photograph. I didn't feel great as it wasn't the most flattering

The way he said specimen I shivered. What did he mean by that?The smaller beta male got to his feet and he finished chewing before putting his hand forwards gently. "It is a delight to meet another lovely beta female, Miss Spitz. It's wonderful to have your energy added to our team. I always think feminine should balance the masculine energies.""I couldn't agree more." I tried to smile to diffuse the tension between the who of them. I tried to look at the other artwork around the room, I was finally doing the job I had dreamed of for the last week."But why would there be a gender difference in research. If so wouldn't it make more sense for me to work under him?" I wondered, turning from Dr. Igarashi to the man who was claiming to be my mentor. "I know the documents were heavily censors so I assume that I have joined when we are going to be starting human trials? It seems quite a late stage in which someone should be joining a research team. I'm trying to make sense of th

I wasn't naiive though. I knew that these men could become monsters. No woman could be without the fear of seeing that aggression in the other gender when the species known as alpha. Their body size was imposing and looking up to them had already placed their position as primal to us. These were the ones commanding the legions as we fought against the darkness that threatened to engulf from extra terresterial threats. To fight back to keep our planet safe, our society needed dominance and aggression where the fighters would keep getting up even if there was no hope for survival. It wasn't something that we talked about in the news anymore, but the tariffs and the quiet rations--were something we all accepted but refused to speak up. It was always a part of a society that it was a requirement that there be a weaker sex and that was we."I am not one who is often seen with the most violent species. I hope that you will not see this as more weakness. But, sir, what do you mean t

"I'm sure you can understand the reasons for such an airtight NDA. We wouldn't want it getting out there, what our government is working on. Your entire discretion is advised or you will be sued into oblivion. You're signature was of utmost importance to me. But, now that the legalities are out of the way, we can move on to more pressing matters. I want to show you what I have been perfecting these past few months." Dr. Dawson decided onto the bottom floor. There was a hiss as the assistant beta males in hazmat suits stepped out of their decontamination zone and bowed before scurrying off. I felt awkward as I was left behind. Dr. Dawson raised his eyebrows to look at me and I came closer to him. "Come. Come on, this isn't a place to be getting lost. I really want you to be aware of this specimen. You know we have astronauts who were involved in the first phase of defending our planet before we had the invasion and the war. It's not really much left in his pique physical

He was utterly still. The others were all pacing around on all fours, beast-like, their eyes blank. He was slumped against one corner of his enclosure. His head was in shadow and I could tell that his breathing was even. I assumed he was sleeping, but as I got closer to the angled panels, I could see that there was blood oozing out from the soles of his feet. There was scar tissue there which looked like it had not been allowed to heal properly."Don't you care if he gets an infection?" I wondered, looking at the open wounds.Hearing my voice, the alpha's eyes opened as he moved slightly into the eyes. His eyes glowed with the ocean blue color as his eyes darted from Dr. Dawson to my scared eyes. He suddenly bared his teeth and growled low into the back of his throat, it was a warning sound that made me flinch, but I was aware so I didn't take the step behind Dr. Dawson like I dearly wanted to."It's good you have some standing as they try to establish their dominance often wi
