Bound to the Alpha King

The forest was so still that night, Enid could swear in her wolfish senses that something bad would happen. Her parents warned her to get home before 9:00 pm. It was already 11:40 p.m. She couldn't do anything but jog briskly to get there faster, the place she had gone to was far away. Her heartbeat was racing too anxiously, without quite knowing why. Being an omega late at night outside her house was an imminent danger. "This is what I get for paying attention to Tati," she thought. She decided to rest a bit under a leafy tree that gave a lot of protection as it was quite big. Her taupe fur was majestic and shone in the moonbeams. She tried to place herself once more, but as she did, she became aware of hurried footsteps heading in her direction. She was afraid, but at that very moment, she ran with all the strength that her legs gave her. She got to her house in less than ten minutes. She changed form to a human quickly in the garden. Her parents greeted her with worried faces. "Enid, honey. Thank God, you're okay!" said her mother, hugging her. "I am, but also scared... I felt that someone was following me" commented the young woman. "I think that at this time the nerves attack everyone. Don't do this to us again, Enid. You know that we seek your well-being", her father spoke as he also approached her. "Maybe I imagined it, but it felt so real" Enid continued talking. "What matters is that you are well", the mother tried to level the loads. "Yes, I think so…" she continued, knowing that there was something off about the aura. "Did you manage to help Tatiana?" wanted to know her father. "Yes, and her parents gave her an ultimatum." "Did they hear about her poor performance?" the woman was amazed. "That's right, but I helped her with what I could for tomorrow's exams." "You did well, honey" added the alpha. The girl's parents insisted on having dinner since she must have been hungry after traveling so far. Her best friend lived a long way from home. Both studied together in the same high school, and they were about to graduate. After dinner, she went to her room and took a shower, blew her hair, and proceeded to sleep, as she had a long day ahead of her. Once her eyes widened again at her alarm hours later, she turned it off. Still sleepy, she got ready to go to class. Her uniform consisted of a somewhat long gray skirt and an electric blue and black striped blazer since she did not like to be revealing. Many said that she looked like a nun dressed like that, but she didn’t care. The pack was a place that she loved very much, it made her feel packed. She demonstrated every day how superior she was in terms of her intellect. She walked to high school after picking up her breakfast at the kitchen counter. Her parents left earlier than her, leaving her a bag of food ready every day. On the way, she felt that great insecurity again, as if someone was watching her. She looked up and down the street before crossing. However, out of nowhere, a black car with tinted windows appeared in front of her. The blonde swallowed hard. Two men in suits got out of the car, ready for anything. She knew they had weapons. She freaked out, coming to think that they might be human. One of them grabbed her by the neck and pinned her body to the car, tying her hands behind her back with handcuffs. "Who are you?! What are you doing?!" she yelled. She was really scared at that moment, and even more because the men weren't talking to her. "You will obey the King" was what she heard one of them say. She did not understand anything about what was happening. "What do you want from me? Is it for money?!" she asked again in anguish. "Money has nothing to do here. You'd better shut up, you little creep" one of them yelled at him. They proceeded to cover her face with a black disguise and forced her into the car. As soon as this happened, something unexpected happened. A different car came up behind them and those in it shot the men to death, leaving the girl alone inside the car. Those who were in it were unknown to her. "Are you alright, miss? Did they do something to you?"  wanted to know a man's voice. She shook her head at both. He removed the cover and then she saw another man in a suit. "I'm sorry about what happened. These men have tried to defraud the King and take advantage of you." "Who are you?" Enid wanted to know, on the verge of tears. "We are the next alpha's special team. We need to talk to your parents." "What will you tell them?" "For now, it's better to take you home." "My parents aren't there" she spoke in a low tone. "We know. We'll wait until whatever time it is, it's dangerous for you to be alone, miss." "How do you know?". "We've been keeping an eye on your routine. I hope you don't mind. They've been direct orders from the crown”. "Why would they want to do that? Did I do something wrong?" Enid was on the verge of tears. She did not understand anything. "You'll know when your parents are home." Saying this, she was freed from the handcuffs and taken in the other car to her house. "This is very strange..." As the hours passed, Enid panicked, so she called her parents to be there as soon as possible. Both asked for permission from their jobs to be able to attend to that emergency. When the parents showed up at the house, Enid ran into their arms in tears. "What's going on here? What do they want from us?" wanted to know the alpha, father of the omega. "We are very sorry for all the inconvenience, but she needs to be kept safe." "You still haven't answered my question" replied the man, annoyed. "Enid has been chosen to be the wife of the next Alpha King. You will have a juicy reward for it." "Reward? What the hell are you talking about?" demanded to know her mother with her arms crossed. "Your daughter has been auctioned off" the man informed him. "Between who?!" the father yelled. "The Crown has won. They want your daughter." "You mean they sold my daughter?! What the hell?!" asked the father, fearful of the future of his little girl. The man agreed. "She's an omega, you know her fate. It's not necessary to repeat the rules of the pack, Sir”. Enid was now one more object, one more omega. She passed out, not being able to deal with the news.
