THE ALPHA'S POSSESSION (PREVIEW ONLY)

CHAPTER 2.2

"Maverick! You're finally here!" Andrew exclaimed in excitement and gladness upon seeing Maverick making his way towards them. "What took you so long, man? The party has already started, and the guys have been waiting for you!" He asked after Maverick had finally arrived in front of him.

"I had to settle some things," Maverick answered in his usual cold and nonchalant tone, completely oblivious to how excited Andrew is with his arrival.

"By settling some things... Do you mean settling your family, or your grandfather, to be more specific?" Andrew asked with one of his brows raised. Curiosity could also be heard in his voice as he asked that question.

But the expression on Andrew's face changed in an instant—his curiosity dissipating and nervousness took over—when Maverick's face darkened, an indication that he disliked the question that came out of Andrew's mouth.

"Mind your own business, Andrew," Maverick said in a colder tone, also accompanying it with his strong pheromones. And because Maverick is a dominant alpha, even the slightest smell of his pheromones would be enough to gather the attention of the people around him, especially the omegas.

Maverick knew the effect of his pheromones on others, yet he acted oblivious and continued to arrogantly pour out his pheromones, making the people around him, especially the omegas, feel uncomfortable.

Suddenly, the loud and wild crowd was turned into a dead one. The loud music was still playing, yet the people had stopped dancing and moving and just stared at the two dominant alphas—Maverick and Andrew, although the attention was more into Maverick.

The place was filled with tension. Everyone was on edge as they looked at the two alphas, especially on Maverick, who was still emitting pheromones.

"I... I'm sorry, Mav. I was out of line," said Andrew after a couple of minutes of just being struck silent, which surprised the people around them.

Since Andrew is popular in their college, everyone knows what kind of personality he has. And the Andrew they knew was not the kind of person who would apologize even if it was his fault. Which was why they were so shocked to hear an apology coming from the prideful and arrogant dominant alpha.

None of them had thought that they'd live to see that day!

"Let's not do that again, alright?" was Maverick's reply to Andrew, causing the crowd's attention to switch unto him. And when the crowd stared at Maverick, the shock they felt upon Andrew's apology vanished in an instant.

It's Maverick Garcia, the most popular and most desired alpha not just in their college but in their whole town, and he is also the eldest grandchild of the most powerful man in their town. Of course it's normal to apologize if you have offended him.

Andrew might be a dominant alpha and is also popular, but Maverick is in his own league that even any other rich and dominant alpha would willingly bow down to him.

So if dominant alphas could submit to him, what more the other genders, such as recessive alphas, the betas, and the lowest gender, the omegas? Even if they wanted to tell Maverick to stop emitting his pheromones because it's affecting them and making them feel uncomfortable, they couldn't. They couldn't say a thing because they already knew the blame would be put on them, resulting in them being called names for not being able to control themselves as if it was something they wanted to feel or happen. And so instead of complaining or asking Maverick to tone down his pheromones, the omegas present in the party chose to take their suppressants and depart.

But the little omega behind Andrew and Maverick did not do the same thing.

Rather than departing quietly, Ciel, with his head held high and no fear in his voice, spoke up in an irritated voice.

"How about you quit showing off your damned pheromones first, you arrogant bastard?"

A collective gasp from the crowd was immediately heard after that. In an instant, everyone turned their attention from Maverick to the brave and fearless little Omega.

Ciel felt the shocked stares of the people on him, but he did not pay them any attention. His eyes were only focused on the guy in front of him, who finally turned around to look at him after ignoring him and Raffy, who were literally just right in front of Andrew, as if they're mere dust that does not deserve even an ounce of attention and respect.

Ciel was already mad because of how Andrew treated Raffy, and his anger just intensified when Maverick arrived. Because how could you cut off a conversation of people and act as if you did nothing disrespectful, then proceed to do something even more outrageous that could put others in danger?
