Officially My Omega || Jinkook ||

1 ~ Omega

"Congratulations it's a boy."

Twenty-three years ago, if Mrs. Kim had been given the chance to avoid giving birth again, she would have accepted it without an ounce of hesitation. She would have gladly made that decision in the blink of an eye. Five years ago, if her youngest son had not been officially declared an Omega on his 18th birthday, perhaps Kim Seokjin would not be treated the way he is now.

"Seokjin!"

Mr. Kim's voice boomed through the house, shouting Seokjin's name and sending shivers down Mrs. Kim's spine as she hurried towards her husband. She could hear the faint sound of running from the upper floors, signaling that her son was rushing down the hallway and down the stairs in response to his father's call.

Mrs. Kim quickened her pace from the kitchen, carefully balancing a tray of food meant for high tea as she sped towards the main hall. Her heart raced in sync with her hurried steps, and her growing unease was evident.

What was going to happen today?

"Dad, wha...agh"

Mrs. Kim arrived in the main hall just in time to witness her youngest son stumbling on the carpeted floor, holding his cheek. His normally soft white skin was already reddening, and a small trickle of blood dripped from his accidentally bitten lips. The tray she had been carrying fell from her grasp, clattering to the ground.

"Seokjin~ah!"

She called out to her son, rushing toward him as he crouched on the floor. Tears streamed down her cheeks, each drop a reflection of her anguish. Another scene of abuse unfolded before her eyes, another painful strike to Seokjin's already wounded heart.

Seokjin held his cheek, but no tears fell from his eyes. He ignored the pain of the slap and fixed his gaze on his father, who loomed over him with an intimidating presence. Despite his mother's efforts to soothe him from behind, enveloping him in a gentle embrace, Seokjin remained stoic, his eyes locked on his father's stern face.

"What now?"

He asked his father. In calmness and cold. In boldness and bravery. Eyes still boring deep towards the old man.

"Tell me, what is my fault now that you hit me again today?"

Seokjin slowly rose to his feet, gripping his mother's trembling arms for support. He sought the internal strength he desperately needed from her comforting presence, hoping it would provide him with the resilience to face the situation.

"How dare you talking back to me, omega?!"

Mr. Kim did not step back. He knew his son too well—far too well. He understood precisely how Seokjin would react. Kim Seokjin was no ordinary Omega.

Born as the only Omega in a family dominated by Alpha men, Seokjin had been branded a shame and disgrace to the Kim Clan from the moment he was born. The Kim family, a prestigious lineage with a long history of ruling over the Incheon area, was renowned across South Korea as one of the most powerful clans. When Seokjin, as the last heir, was born an Omega, the news was met with disdain by most family members. His birth was considered the most unfortunate event in the clan's history, so much so that he was not even registered in the family's official records.

Such was the typical treatment of an Omega man, and it had been Seokjin's reality since he turned 23. He was a child who had never felt his father's love, an Omega without recognition, and a member of the Kim family in name only, with no true meaning or pride associated with it.

Yet Kim Seokjin was different. Upon turning 18, painfully aware of his status as an Omega, he had prepared himself for the harsh reality of his life. Despite his father's mistreatment, Seokjin found solace in the understanding and love of his family. He was fortunate to have his brother, Kim Namjoon, a proud Alpha who stood as a beacon of support and encouragement.
