Loving The Unloved (Original Story)

Chapter 5

After breakfast, Nicky escorted him to the other side of the house. Charlie was surprised by how big the place was. He passed by a few people cleaning, Nicky saying hello to them as they walked. "As I said before, you'll see plenty of betas, all half breeds.

A few full-blooded wolves patrolling around, but you'll be able to tell once they get close to you. Some just want to gain control of the way our master runs things and the underground works and they can do that if they get to you." Charlie frown. "Why do I matter?" He asked. He was a simple omega, nothing special.

"Because you will be near our Master and will be working closely with him. You will know a few things even I won't know. You're going to be our representation to us half breeds and full-blooded wolves under his care to the humans. You'll be like an equal to them and you'll be our voice."

Charlie felt a bit pressured. Again, why did his master choose him? Charlie sighed. He was ready to go to bed and call it a day. They continue to walk down the long hall till his senses heighten a bit by the smell of earthy musk when they arrive at a door.

"In this wing is where most of us sleep. Stay close to me, Charlie." Charlie nodded. Nicky opened the door and grab Charlie's arm. She hurriedly closed the door and they walked some more. The hall was full of doors on the left and paintings on the right wall. They were all so beautiful.

Painting of wolves howling at a full moon, of them running in packs and even a few in defensive positions. Nicky stopped at one. This one was a half breed, standing tall, teeth bared and ears back. His eyes held confidence and his body was hard.

"This was our previous omega half breed that was around before our master took over. You'll see him at the gathering." She said. "Were you around during his time here?" Charlie asked. Nicky shrugged. "I was recently adopted around his time and was train by other betas.

But this guy had respect from the Alphas and kept this place running when his master was away. There were rumors that he was once feared by rogue Alphas and other humans. So he and his master were needed elsewhere."

Charlie whimpered. "You think I can be like him?" Charlie asked. Nicky began to walk, Charlie looking at each past halfbreed Omega before him and each time getting more worried. "You don't need to be like them. You just need to get out of your shell and be yourself." Charlie nodded. He has work to do.

They enter a big ballroom full of Betas and Alphas. "First order of business, mingle with your people and get your face out there," Nicky said with a smile. "They're going to hate me." Charlie's tail was between his legs, whimpering a bit.

"Just trust your instincts. I'll be right next to you." Alright Charlie, just keep your head up and don't submit to anyone. You are important, Charlie thought. After a deep breath, Charlie walked in with fake confidence, Nicky following.

Many earthy scents tickled his nose, his inner wolf awaking. He unconsciously growled when some of them turn to him. "Well, Well, Well, fresh meat," Said a male. "He won't last long," Said a female. Charlie bared his teeth, growling at the people around him.

He doesn't like being watched and judged. Then just as Charlie and Nicky was nearing the middle of the room, there had to be one Alpha that had to be known. Charlie heard Nicky growl. "I was wondering when our Alpha was getting a new omega." Said by a male standing in front of Charlie.

The male was an Alpha thanks to his red eyes and scars on his chest. He wore a loose, unbuttoned shirt, inserting his dominance. Everyone gave him space as he walked forward, looking towards him for a hint that they can do what they want.

"That's Victor. Head Alpha and the one you have to watch out for. He'll be the one who would try to get close to you to take the position of our master." Nicky whispered to him. Victor chuckled, baring his fangs. "Now Nicole, I hope you aren't feeding this pup lies. He has a mind of his own."

Nicky kept a grip on his arm while a low growl came from her. Charlie held his head high. "You said new omega. There was a previous one our master had?" Victor stop next to him, shoulder to shoulder and lean over to smell Charlie's scent.

"You're not special omega. And he's not my master. But I will admit, he made better choices." Victor almost put his head closer to Charlie, Charlie taking in his scent, but Nicky growled. "Charlie, careful. He trying to get to know you and your scent. Don't let him get any closer."

Victor turned his head to Nicky, warning her to back off, but Nicky challenges him instead. Nicky's fangs showed and her eyes dilated. Her body crouched in a way and her dark brownish tail was up. "He is mine to watch over for our master, not so you can bond with him. He's not yours."

The circle started closing in around them, but Victor backed away, stopping them. He turned his eyes to me. "You won't last long with him omega, but you won't have to be on the streets if you come to me." Victor lifted Charlie's head with his fingers under his chin. Charlie wasn't going to lie, it was tempting.

But his faith was with Nicky, so he turned his head away from Victor. Victor hummed and walked away, the crowd dispersing. Charlie looked towards Nicky, seeing her calm down. "I was hoping he was patrolling outside than be in here.

The master always has him working outside, too nosy to work inside. Shame. He has potential." She said, shaking her head. "You're telling me. He makes my fur stand up." Said another voice. Nicky and Charlie turn towards the voice seeing a woman and a man walking towards them.

Nicky wasn't growling at them so Charlie thought they were safe. "That's Mark and Jackie. Mark is a beta and Jackie an Alpha. Jackie is a little bit nicer, but you still have to be on your toes. They can be manipulative." Charlie nodded. They chatted with them, welcoming Charlie to pack.

Charlie nodded and smiled, but his mind was elsewhere. There was another omega before his adoption. Before his arrival. Charlie wondered what drove the omega away and if he was going to have the same fate.
