I glance to myself in my bedroom mirror, the bandages over my scent gland is turning a shade of blue due to the overwhelming scent that I'm locking inside myself.
I quickly shut all the windows and cover the crack in the door tightly, making sure it's scent proof.
I undo my bandages covering the gland, and the air explodes in a sweet scent of berries and sweets.
I quickly cover it again, but I make it even more scent proof than I had it before.
Betas are unable to tell the difference between the scent of an omega and a normal everyday scent. But today, my job comes directly from the Queen. She's an omega too, meaning that she'll know that I'm an omega immediately if she even catches so much as a whiff of my scent.
I was lucky to escape the forced marriage in the Asano Kingdom, but I doubt I'd be as lucky to escape a second time.
Since omegas are so rare, and alphas are only in the royal family, omegas are usually taken from their parents to force a marriage between the young royals and the omegas.
Luckily, my parents were assassins before they passed and they taught me how to fight, use a knife, and use a gun. So they basically taught me how to be an assassin, and I now work in the Akabane Kingdom.
I just finished my job and am now going to collect my reward.
I spray the room with a nicely scented spray and leave with my bag.
I dress in an all black jumpsuit, and my short baby blue hair bounces with each step.
I'm still nervous as I leave the inn and get on my horse, but I hide it all behind a blank expression, an expression that I mastered after all these years of killing my targets.
"Name and business?" The guard to the castle asks, and I look down on him with a frighteningly cold stare. He goes from bored to scared shitless.
"Nagisa Shiota. The queen requested me." He nods and let's me in. Quickly dismounting, the queen comes out with a warm smile.
"Ah, Shiota! It's good to see you, please come in and tell me about the job." She wraps her arm around my shoulder, and touches my scent gland, making me shiver. "Nagisa, dear.... tell me, why do you have a bandage covering your scent gland?" She asks me in a hushed voice, hurrying me inside to where her son and husband are. I shrug, trying to be nonchalant.
"The target you sent me after fought back and it's still sore." This goes for omegas, betas, and alphas, but scent glands are very sensitive, so it's kind of true because he punched me there. It still stings.
"Oh, I'm sorry." She moves her hand, but the two men in the room still seem suspicious. "Other than getting hurt, did it turn out as planned?" She asks as she motions me to sit on the couch in what Im guessing is one of the many living rooms.
The prince sits next to me with the king next to the queen. "Well, yes it did. Although, I saw a beta kidnapping an omega and I had to go off task for a bit so it took longer than expected." I'm sure they already- from the looks on their faces they most likely didn't.
"What? Why didn't you bring the omega here, then?!" The king yells, and I shake my head.
"Your majesty, I'm sure your parents were amazing people, but they didn't look at all the options when they sent you to be married to his majesty. Omegas are indeed rare, but not as rare as you'd think. Instead of being given to the crown, they're sold to the highest bidder. As an assassin, I see a lot of that." I take a sip of the tea handed to me and look away. That is true, and I feel so much pity for them.
I normally teach them methods to hide their scents, it's the least I can do besides rescuing them and sending them to loving families.
"I assure you, the omega is in hiding and is currently with a loving family that will take good care of her." I state with a pained look in my eyes before forcing myself into a blank stare.
"You seem very opinionated on this topic." I glance to the prince before looking away. His mischievous eyes seem to bore into my skull.
"Of course, your highness. Even assassins are able to show pity. What kind of monster wouldn't be opinionated about trafficking?" He frowns, but smirks after a moment.
"You're very interesting. Will you ever return to the castle?" I look straight at him and raise an eyebrow.
"Not unless you have a job for me. I don't have the money to visit more than needed. I travel the entire country to do my jobs, and I don't have time to stay in one place." He frowns with a sad sigh.
"Aw, and I was hoping you could stay as the head of our guard."
No way in hell can I stay around the royal family. My arm is going to turn purple if I stay any longer with how tight my bandages are!
"I don't think I'm qualified-"
"But you are, because I say so." The king interjects, and he looks down to my bandage covered scent gland. "That seems awfully tight, why don't we lossen it up a little-" I immediately panic and cover my scent gland.
Goddammit.... I fucked up...
"Oh? You seem very panicky for a beta?" I laugh nervously.
"It just hurts a lot and I don't want anyone really touching it. I should leave, now. I have a job to do down south-" The prince takes my hand and smirks.
"Why don't you take the job as head guard? You'd be paid much more and we can have a look at your quote-unquote 'wound'~." The prince teases, and I immediately know I'm trapped.
I look to her majesty but she only shakes her head with pity in her eyes. "Sorry sweety, but once he's got his eyes set on something, he doesn't let go."
I am so screwed...
"Fine. As long as I'm allowed to continue fighting." The king stands, along with the queen who gives me an apologetic smile.
"I'll go do the paperwork, then." The two of them leave, and I'm immediately pulled into a tight embrace against the couch.
"Tell me, who were you running from?"
