Ana
The days passed and the contempt increased. Those men were perfect at what they did, in every training, handling weapons, simulations, even communicating in silence, in looks, less in noticing my presence.
It was as if I didn't exist, every order was ignored. I could see their weak points, even in those perfect movements, I wanted to help, but they didn't want me there
Every day, at eight o'clock sharp, I showed up at the gym, ready to give my instructions, maybe teach something new and every day, I was completely ignored.
“ If you don't give me an opening, I won't be able to help”
“ And what does a worm like you think you can do to help? Can't you see, we don't need you”
It wasn't the beta who answered me, it was one of those men I called omega, but his leader liked the answer, that smile on the side of his mouth told me that
I left the academy and went straight to the commander's room
The place was large, with a solid wooden table right in the middle of the room and a leather sofa against the wall, brown, in keeping with the decor of the place. On the table, just papers and a computer, the commander was there
“ Daddy”
“ No . . . Not here, you know that”
“ pardon me”
I lowered my head, recognizing my mistake and heard him breathing loudly, as if he regretted his answer.
“ My girl, come here”
He reached out his hand at the same moment and left the place, guiding me to the sofa. Of course the district commander knew what was going on
“ You are big, small, don't let anyone diminish you”
“ They don't listen to me”
“ They don't listen to anyone”
“ But they respect you, I saw”
“ Ana . . . Please, if you knew everything”
His face was sad, with his head down, there was something there, with those men, he just didn't tell me
“ They're shifters, aren't they?”
“ Yes, but you should never say it out loud”
“ What class?”
None of them had revealed themselves to me, I only imagined they were another species because of what I had already observed in training. His strength and skill was enormous, especially that leader
“ Maybe, if I know what they are, I can go along a path that they accept”
“ Ana . . .”
I was still trying to convince my father, but a soldier stopped me, a completely desperate one.
“ Sir, the general commander sent a message, said that the team must immediately place themselves under Nickolay's command and that he will know what to do, he will understand”
My father closed his eyes, unlike me, he also knew what was happening, he just didn't want to
“ Too soon. . .”
“ What do you mean by that?”
Calmly he turned to me, smiled as if in obligation and asked me not to ask questions. I was supposed to be the alpha, obey and nothing more, from that moment on, I was in the hands of the person who despised me the most and who went by the name Nickolay
• * *
“ You're really not going to tell me what's going on? Are you going to put me in charge of it? You know he hates me”
“ He doesn't hate you, daughter, if he doesn't know you. If Nickolay knew who you were, he would never . . .”
He stopped halfway, it was as if he realized he had said something he should never have repeated.
“ Who am I, daddy?”
He just looked at me, that's all, without saying a single word. I was packing my suitcase, with your help, at my accommodation. When he opened his mouth to answer me, a figure entered, without knocking. Your voice made the walls shake
“ Time to go”
Every hair on my body stood up. It was him, Nickolay
He just said the sentence, looked at me with hatred and left. My bread saw that as a message and remained silent, gave me a hug, took my suitcase and left, waiting for me to follow him.
“ Never argue, never ask. If he tells you to do something, just obey. Daughter, listen carefully, where are you going, you are not the alpha, just Ana. As soon as everything is resolved, I will send for you, just stay well, for the love of God, stay alive”
Alive? What did that mean?
A car was already waiting for me, in front of our accommodation, completely black, I couldn't see who the driver was. My father put my suitcase in the trunk, opened the door and I got in
One last look, one last silent plea and he closed the door. At the same moment, I heard a growl, I knew I was in the presence of shifters, but I didn't dare look, I just closed my eyes and said a silent prayer.
“Lord, help me”
