RYUICHI

I AM Okuda Ryuichi, twenty-six years old. Today, I got transferred to another company branch that sells high quality suppressants for Omegas. I was informed that my soon-to-be new boss was strict and that he hated slackers. Ang totoo niyan, I didn't expect too well.

Born as an Alpha, everyone had high hopes from me. Inaasahan nilang magiging magaling ako sa lahat. Ilang ulit ko nang naranasan na marami ang nagtangkang mapalapit sa akin dahil sa taglay kong kapasidad. What people didn't know is that I hated mingling too much; particularly with Omegas. Whenever I see an Omega in heat, it reminded me of a disgusting sight I've seen in my childhood.

"My name's Okuda Ryuichi. I'll be in your care from now on," magalang kong pagpapakilala sa aking sarili nang dumating na ako sa bago kong pagtatrabahuan.

"Welcome, Okuda!" Isang nagagalak naman na pagbati ang natanggap ko mula sa mga magiging katrabaho ko.

To be honest, I could do more than just be a lowly subordinate in the Sales Department. With my good family background and rank in society, I could be the CEO or owner of my very own company. But I chose this average way of living... to avoid parties that most Alphas enjoyed when they were in the mood to get wild.

Ang mga mayayamang Alpha na may mataas na uri at posisyon sa trabaho ay madalas dumalo sa mga isinasagawang temporary mating sessions. Isa itong ilegal na gawain at tanging mga pinakamaimpluwensiya lamang ang nakakaalam tungkol dito.

Dito, nagaganap ang mga kahalayang hindi mo aasahang maaaring mangyari. Bumibili sila ng mga Omega at ginagamit silang mga kasangkapan sa pagpaparaos ng kanilang mga libog. Ganitong uri rin ng trabaho ang kinasasadlakan ng karamihan sa mga Omega - lalo na ang mga walang mate - dahil wala rin naman silang maayos na edukasyon at karapatan sa lipunan.

Ayaw kong masaksihan ang marumi nilang mga gawain kaya mas pinili kong kumuha ng trabaho na madalas ay nababagay sa mga Beta at ilang Alpha na katamtaman lamang ang karangyaan.

"I am Shimada Kazuki, head manager of the Sales Department," biglang pakilala sa akin ng isang lalaking may katangkaran din at may kalakihan ang katawan. He didn't shake hands with me nor greeted me. Maputi ang kanyang balat at makinis. Base sa kanyang tindig, walang duda na isa siyang Alpha na kagaya ko.

"Okuda Ryuichi. Nice to meet you, Shimada-senpai," pormal kong baling sa kanya at tiningnan niya lang ako na para bang wala siyang balak na pahabain pa ang usapan namin.

Pagkatapos naming magkamayan - dahil na rin napilitan siya - ay tinalikuran na niya ako at bumalik sa kanyang puwesto at muling hinarap ang kanyang laptop. Kung opinyon ng ibang tao ang aking pagbabasehan, medyo bastos ang naging trato niya sa akin pero nagulat ako nang makitang tila wala na iyong epekto sa kanyang mga katrabaho.

「Totoo ba talagang sobra siyang strikto?」sa isip-isip ko at nakiramdam sa naging reaksiyon ng iba.

May ilan na nagbulungan at dali-daling bumalik sa kani-kanilang mga puwesto. May iba rin naman na binigyan ako ng tila naaawang tingin. Hinintay kong may magsabi sa akin kung ano iyong nangyari pero mukhang lahat sila ay takot sa kanilang kinikilalang boss.

Throwing that aside, nagpasya na lamang ako na puntahan ang magiging bago kong working desk at sinimulang ilapag ang mga gamit ko dito.

"Um... hello." Natigil ako sa pag-aayos ng mga gamit ko nang may biglang nagsalita sa bandang kaliwa ko. Napatingin ako sa nagmamay-ari ng medyo may kaliitan ang boses at nininerbyos siyang nangiti sa akin. "Hi. Ako si Moriya Hino. Pasensiya ka na sa boss namin, ah. Mailap talaga siya sa mga bagong empleyado pero mabait naman siya na boss," wika nito sa akin bago inayos ang suot niyang pabilog na salamin na makapal ang frame.

"It's okay," sabi ko na lang at nagpatuloy sa aking ginagawa.

"Isa nga pala akong Beta. Um... isa ka bang Alpha?" usisa nito.

"Why?" I asked in confusion. Did it even matter?

"W-wala lang. Malakas kasi ang dating ng aura mo eh," aniya tsaka nag-iwas ng tingin.

「Am I really that obvious? Do I spread so much dominance na kahit na umakto akong parang pangkaraniwang Alpha lamang ay nakakaramdam pa rin ng uneasiness ang mga nakakasalamuha ko,」I thought to myself.

I shrugged the thought off. Then suddenly, my eyes averted towards our head manager's direction. Mula dito sa kinauupuan ko ay kitang-kita ko siya. He was so focused on his work and didn't even notice my stare.

I didn't know why but this was the first time that I got so intrigued towards another Alpha. He must be quite dominant in sex, too. He looked too classy to be in here, in my own opinion. And he looked quite young, to boot. Must be from a very known family or he could also be related to this company's owner.

"Kung ako sa 'yo, huwag mong titigang masyado si Shimada-san. Sigurado akong napapansin ka niyan," biglang sita sa akin ni Moriya-san.

Awtomatiko naman akong nag-iwas ng tingin at napaisip. Why did a guy like him chose to work here? To me, he was the type of Alpha that could easily reach the top without having the trouble of enslaving himself as a mere sales manager.

「Is he, by any chance, had similar reasons like me?」I thought to myself again while staring at our boss.

"If that was the case, I might consider befriending him," I said to myself while smirking and I didn't even realize that I was doing that.

"Okuda-kun, here's your first assignment," ani Shimada-senpai sabay lapag ng ilang mga papeles sa desk ko. He wore an expressionless face as if he was a robot.

"What should I do with these?" tanong ko naman.

"Keep track of our sales for today and give me a report tonight bago ka umuwi. I won't accept delays," he instructed and went back to his seat.

「Tonight, you say?」medyo nag-aalinlangan kong wari sa isipan. Guess, I had no choice but to work my butt out.

The company that I used to work for was really successful. Clients were satisfied with the suppressants that we produced and distributed in drug stores. It's not just the Omegas that needed suppressants, but also Alphas.

When an Omega goes into heat, they release a special kind of pheromones that higly attracts any Alphas nearby. Nawawalan ng sense of reasoning ang kahit na sinong Alpha na naaamoy ang nasabing pheromones. And when this happens, an Omega's body craves for sex. They can either use sex toys to subdue the heat but it would take long. They will only calm down if an Alpha fucks them. And when I say Alpha, anyone would do. This was how it always worked.

The only way to stop an Omega's periodic heat is to become mates with an Alpha. Mating is done when an Alpha bites an Omega's nape during their heat sex. From then on, the Omega can no longer have sex with others aside from his Alpha mate while a mated Alpha can still have multiple mates if he wanted to but would no longer get affected by other Omegas' heat.

Pregnancy is likely to occur if an Omega gets penetrated during his or her heat. That's why they also take birth control pills because getting pregnant without a mate is risky for them.

That is what I know. And I have no plan on walking through the same paths as those idiots.

Mabilis na sumapit ang gabi. This is still my first day at work but here I am now having an overtime. I never would have thought that this branch was as busy as to my previous one!

"Fuck, I feel sleepy already," I cursed while typing the last bit of informations to my report. Sumasakit na ang mga mata ko and I could feel my body giving up. I should start to get used to this. I slightly took a glance at my wristwatch and even became frantic when I knew that it was nearly eleven in the evening. "Ah! Come to think of it, sinabi ko kay Shimada-senpai na iiwanan ko lang ang report ko dito. I wonder if he already went home," alala ko at napatingin sa paligid.

My co-workers told me na may sariling opisina ang boss. Doon umano siya lumalagi kapag napakarami niyang kailangang asikasuhin maliban ang i-monitor ang mga galaw namin. Nakalimutan ko kung saan banda iyon but I think it was beyond that thick wall behind Shimada-senpai's work desk.

「Should I just leave my report here or try to see if he's still on the other side?」I thought while looking from left to right to see if everybody was no longer here.

After finishing everything, I turned off my laptop and grabbed my report and headed towards the other side of our cubicle. I should make a good impression if I wanted him to acknowledge my skills. Besides, I partly hated his cocky attitude this morning so maybe giving him exactly what he asked me for won't hurt.

I found the door to his office. I instantly knew that it was his because of the signage that said: DO NOT DISTURB. Akmang kakatok na sana ako nang mapansin kong nakaawang ng kaunti ang pinto. When I leaned closer, I suddenly jolted back.

「This smell-!」It was faint but it was addictive enough to make me lose my balance in an instant. 「Is he having sex with an Omega in heat?!」

I started to feel nauseous when I began hearing soft moans from the inside. Kung kanina ay nasa mabuti akong kondisyon, now I'm having trouble controlling myself. My rut suddenly came! This was because I smelled an Omega's pheromone!

"What a bastard. Doing it in such a dangerous place," inis at dismayado kong saad at pinilit na lumayo ngunit inakit ako ng mabangong amoy. Kinakain nito ang buo kong sistema.

I ended up knocking the door open while breathing heavily, looking like a wild beast that was about to feast on his prey. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me but I was dumbfounded upon seeing my boss panting like a whore. He was lying all naked on the floor and all sorts of sex toys were scattered around him. Kasalukuyang may naka-insert na dildo vibrator ngayon sa kanyang likuran and it was oozing with too much love juice.

"What are you-?!" I could barely speak properly due to the rut and pleasant smell coming from this very room. Shimada-senpai was as shocked to see me but his heat was rather stronger than his rational thinking. He kept playing with the vibrator and even ejaculated in front of me. A huge sense of disgust overflowed inside me and I quickly covered my mouth to prevent myself from being controlled by his pheromones as I glared at him and snapped. "You're a fucking Omega?! How disgusting!"

His eyes squinted. He stared at me for some time before forcing himself to stand up even though he was still obviously weak from having an intense orgasm a while ago. He threw the vibrator aside as if nothing happened and went to his desk to get something. Nagkasalubong ang mga kilay ko sa kanyang ikinilos but I kept my guard on. He was still releasing such strong pheromones and I was already hard down there. I wouldn't want the risk of attacking this guy in front of me while I was in this state.

And I never knew there were Omegas like him who could deceive someone with their physical appearance! And here I thought that he was a fucking Alpha!

"You know... I don't give a fuck if you're an Alpha, Okuda-kun," biglang wika ni Shimada-senpai and it rang a bell in my ear. "I've worked so hard to have this job I have right now until you showed up. I won't let a merely low subordinate like you mess up my life."

"What are you trying to say?" naguguluhan kong tanong then he took a long pouch with him and pulled out a stack of dollar bills.

"Twenty thousand dollars for every session. Have sex with me and keep your mouth shut," was what he said without blinking.

「Not letting me off the hook, huh?」I thought with my teeth clenched. Gusto ko na lang matawa sa mga sandaling iyon pero higit sa lahat, gusto kong masuka.

I had no idea if it was the scent that was affecting my rational thinking but I was amazed but at the same time baffled by his words and raised an eyebrow. "And you think I would fall for that lousy trick? An Omega like you doesn't belong here."

"Oh, you have to. I am your boss, after all. I could fire you right here, right now," he said in an authorative voice.

「Fuck this Omega!」I cussed.

"I really hate the likes of you," nanggigigil kong saad.

Shimada-senpai scoffed. "As if Alphas are great," pabalang nitong bato sa akin. "You shitty assholes keep spouting nonsense about how filthy we are but aren't you just the same? Look at you," he then started mocking me with such a disgusted look on his face, "barely holding yourself back from tasting my wet ass. Even your cock is honest enough. In the end, you can't resist me."

"Die, you fucking bastard!" I cursed at him and almost strangled him with full force but my rut took hold of my being and strength. My body was yearning to screw this Omega until he couldn't keep with me anymore.

Nilapitan niya ako at iniabot sa akin ang pera. "You know you want me. Say it," panunulsol pa nito habang bumubulong sa akin.

I gritted my teeth in anger. Him being in heat, had so much advantage towards me right now. And I was damn aware that he was just using this opportunity to take control of me but even though it was against my will, something inside me lit up.

"I won't go easy on you," I warned before smirking at him.

He smirked back at me, "I know."

I maybe damned to have agreed to this fucking Omega's useless deal but I was rather interested to know why he was this confident. He acted as if he didn't experience any worse situations like those others. I would make sure to make him beg for me to fuck him until he can't cum anymore without my dick. Until then, I would let him have his way and when I'm fed up, I'll throw him aside.

I secretly balled my hands into a tight fist before thinking, 「I will never let myself be consumed by an Omega's charms. They are filthy beings, not worthy of being loved.」

All they fucking do is act like victims all the time. They'd tell you they didn't need any other Alpha besides you but then one day, they would suddenly disappear from your sight and leave you asking yourself what the fucking hell you did wrong. I never wanted to go through that hellish situation anymore. I'd do anything to prevent that from happening again... even it means risking my own life.

They're untrustworthy people.
