Only Omega - Book 1. (Complete)

Chapter One.

The next morning was the Sunday prior to the last week of school and graduation. I was sleepy from the night before and both Bridget and Vicky were passed out cold.

Vicky was asleep on the guest bathroom floor, Bridget was lying on the kitchen counter when I got downstairs. The place looked mostly cleaned up apart from some empty beer bottles, a few kids here and there and the occasional broken lamp or picture frame.

I headed straight for the kitchen cabinet to grab myself an aspirin then grabbed a glass and filled it with water. Swallowing the pill, I chugged the glass of water and slammed it down onto the kitchen counter, startling Bridget from her sleep, causing her to fall off the table onto the floor.

"Okay I'm up, I'm up" she muttered with a groan as she pushed herself up off the floor. It was then that Vicky came barging into the room with a baseball bat in hand, clearly stunned by the loud thud of Bridget's fall.

"What is it, what's going on?" she demanded, glancing around nervously while I leaned my back against the kitchen counter, rubbing at my head to try and sooth the pounding headache from my hangover. I groaned.

"My head is killing me" Vicky lowered the bat, giving a sigh of relief. She glanced down at her bare feet and alcohol stained dress as she tried to remember the events that had unfolded the night before, however judging from the way she had furrowed her eyebrows up in confusion I figured that she couldn't.

"Tell me about it, is it just me or is the room spinning?" Bridget asked when she tried to stand up too fast and ended up falling back into the kitchen table while rubbing at the side of her head. Bridget's hair was a mess and her makeup was smeared, her lips were swollen and she reeked of Kyle.

"What happened last night?" Vicky asked, glancing from Bridget to me when she realized that Bridget might pass out at any second. I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to remember but all I got were blurs.

"I was dancing, Bridget went somewhere with Kyle and you were chugging down a bottle of Vodka or two" I said but then suddenly froze when I remembered something. Hayden. Vicky noticed my reaction and raised an eyebrow at me, asking.

"What, what's wrong?" I slowly looked up to meet the eyes of my two best friends as they looked at me both suspiciously and curiously. Gulping, I shook my head from side to side trying to clear it but all it did was make me dizzy.

"I found him" was all I said as I stared down at the polished marble flooring of the pack house kitchen. Vicky and Bridget shared a look then turned to me, seemingly dead serious only to erupted into excited squeals.

"Oh my gosh Rachel, why didn't you tell us? That's great, who is he?" they frantically asked, crowding around me as I took a few heavy breaths, trying to go back to when I first realized that he was my mate. In that moment I hadn't noticed it but thinking back, I had caught the faint scent of an Omega. Hayden was an Omega.

"You guys can't tell anyone that I found him, okay?" I said, glancing up at both of them, knowing all too well that if word got out to my parents that I was mated to an Omega that they'd have him killed, he wouldn't be worthy of being mated to an Alpha's daughter.

"What, why not?" Bridget asked, tilting her head to the side. She had turned eighteen in January and was mated to Kyle, a next in line tracker for our pack. Even though it wasn't a high rank it was still higher than an Omega and Bridget being the pack Doctor's daughter made it the perfect match so of course she wouldn't understand.

"Because he's an Omega" I breathed, causing Vicky's eyes to widen as she stumbled back against the kitchen counter with her hand shooting up to cover her mouth in shock.
