The Omegas Painful Decision

Best... Friends?

*Ararsi*

We pulled into the packhouse and I thanked Kyle for the ride. I just wanted to get inside and start my assignments before I got started on cleaning the Alphas office. He has spent alot of time in there of late. I don't know much, as they don't really tell omegas anything. But I know that it is important. Kyle has also been in there often. I'm sure it's because he will be taking over as Alpha soon. I rush into my room on the 1st floor and clear off my desk. I realize I didn't eat lunch today. "Great job Ararsi. You were so preoccupied you didn't eat anything." I moan to myself. I set up my books and head down to grab something off the buffet bar. The cooks always keep such a selection, and today I decided to grab some chicken and rice and a bottle of water. As I'm heading back to my room, I bump into Kyle. I look at him puzzled, as the Alphas generally don't come in to this part of the first floor. Our pack house has 5 floors, and Kyle's room is on the 5th floor with the Alpha, Luna, and sister Brynn. He gives me a smile and steadies me as a fall a bit. He towers over me with his 6'6" frame and blonde wavy hair. His brown eyes are staring at me, and I can see.. a hint of love in them? I back away a bit and smile. "I'm sorry Kyle. I wasn't paying attention. I was so preoccupied today I forgot to eat." he growled under his breath. "Ararsi you need to take care of yourself. Don't let things get in the way of that. I care about you too much to have to worry about that. Now, do you have enough to eat? Is that enough? I can get you more." I was taken back. Of course he cared about me. But he never seemed to care this much. "No no Kyle I'm fine! This is plenty. I won't let it happen again. I'm going to go to my room now. I'll see you upstairs I'm sure!" and with that I ran back to my room. "what a strange interaction.." I thought to myself. I sat down at my desk and started doing my assignments. I needed to get them done to get upstairs to the Alphas office.

*Kyle*

We pulled back into the packhouse and she thanked me for the ride. Her voice. The older she got, the sweeter it became. It had my wolf, Rambo, purring in content. I have to come clean with her. I have to tell her I found my mate. But I rejected her. I rejected her because I want Ararsi as my Luna. I could not imagine making another woman my Luna. I'm waiting for her 18th birthday, hoping maybe she is my second chance mate. I feel sparks, does she? When I look at her, it doesn't feel like she feels how I feel. But I know she cares about me, so maybe she would be ok being my chosen mate. I've never spoken to her about mates, but I know they're important to her. I find myself wandering towards her room on the first floor. I'm supposed to be on the 4th floor with my father for an Alpha meeting, but I can't stop smelling this intoxicating scent. Her scent fills my body and makes my wolf howl. Coffee and fresh brownies. My favorite dessert. And I would give anything to taste her. These thoughts are getting worse. I can't get her out of my head. I want to tell her. But I know I need to wait until she is 18. Maybe the Moon Goddess will bless me with her as my second chance mate. I'm deep in thought when I feel something bump into me. I realize it's her! She starts so fall but I grab her quickly using my Alpha speed. She smiles at me. "I'm sorry Kyle. I wasn't paying attention. I was so preoccupied today I forgot to eat." Rambo growls in my head and it escapes my lips. What has been going on inside her beautiful mind that she was so forgetful? "Ararsi you need to take care of yourself. Don't let things get in the way of that. I care about you too much to have to worry about that. Now, do you have enough to eat? Is that enough? I can get you more." She looked taken back by my sudden eagerness. But she smiled. "No no Kyle I'm fine! This is plenty. I won't let it happen again. I'm going to go to my room now. I'll see you upstairs I'm sure!" and with that she ran off towards her room. I inhaled the scent that was left where she was standing. "A few more months," I thought, "Just a few more months until I can tell her the truth and hope that she's my second chance or chosen mate." I made my way up to my father's office to being the Alpha meeting.
