The Alpha King's Secret Babies

Larissa's POV

My eyes went up to the sky, and as the moon shone down on me, I couldn't stop smiling at myself.

This was it. The night I could finally be more than just an ordinary Omega in my pack

In our world, omegas were nobodies. We were nothing but slaves and helpers with no future.

No one even thought we could be assigned mates by the goddess. We were cursed to live the rest of our lives mateless and ridiculed until we grew old and died.

My parents had been lucky enough to find each other. Both omegas fell in love and had me, but my life was slowly torn apart until Peter came.

A knock on my door pulled me out of my reverie, and I turned away from the window to stare at the small wooden door in my house.

"Larissa, Peter is here to see you!" My mother called from the other side.

My cheeks heated up, and I quickly sat up on the bed. I let my long black hair flow to the side of my neck to show where he had left his mark from the previous night.

"I am up!" I called back, my voice filled with emotions.

Peter and I have been dating for a few months now. It was a miracle that the son of a beta could be mated to an omega like me, but it had happened.

I gave him my body the previous night, and he had left a love bite on my neck, promising to return tonight to present me to his family.

My heart sizzled with butterflies as warmth spread from my core, where we were so beautifully joined. I could still feel him moving in and out of me.

My wolf purred, both of us reliving the moment.

I was finally going to be elevated in the pack. Other wolves wouldn't just look at me and think of me as a lowly omega anymore. My mate was going to be the beta soon, which automatically raised my rank as well.

My wolf growled, excited at the prospect, and even better, tonight, after he had claimed us officially, we were going to make love under the moonlight.

A soft tap on the door pulled me out of my thoughts for the second time, and I jumped out of bed to open it.

As soon as the door flew open, the sweet scent of sandalwood and pine filled my nostrils, and my wolf melted as the mate bond burned around us.

"Hey," I whispered as my eyes fell into his hazel orbs.

"Larissa," he whispered in that soft voice that always swept me off my feet.

His fingers reached my cheeks, and he caressed the skin softly.

"You look beautiful," he said, and my cheeks burned again.

The same desire I had felt the night before when he took me washed over me, and my toes curled.

I stepped away from the door and beckoned to him to come in, but he shook his head slightly.

My brows pulled together as I returned to him. For the first time, I noticed the uneasiness in his eyes.

"Peter, what's wrong?" I asked him. My hands were already going to his face, but he held them and squeezed them gently.

"I don't want to do it here. Let's go somewhere else." He said.

My wolf made a flip in my head at his words. He wanted us to go to the forest already.

My core tightened, and I felt my nipples stand erect under the thin dress I was wearing.

"Sure. I'll just change then," I stuttered.

I went to my wardrobe and picked a huge jacket to drape over my bare shoulders. Then I joined him at the door once again.

He held my hand and led me down to the living area, where my mother sat knitting a sweater.

"Mum, we are going out. I'll be back soon!" I said, and she smiled, waving at us.

"Take care of her, Peter." She replied with a smile on her face.

Peter gave her a tight-lipped smile, and he pulled me along with him.

The night was filled with growls and howls from different pups who were also claiming their mates. Most were at the pack's square, while others had decided to have a private moment like us.

"Where are we going?" I asked as we walked further into the forest.

"It's a quiet spot just beyond the trees," he said.

I felt the sweat in his hands, and I swallowed the giggle that threatened to escape my lips. He was scared, just like I was.

Claiming a mate wasn't like having sex; it was so much deeper, and sex after that meant we would never be apart.

My wolf rolled in excitement as we got to the clearing.

Peter faced me, and I couldn't look into his eyes as my cheeks heated up in anticipation.

"Larissa, I am sorry about what I am about to do."

My wolf stopped rolling, and we snapped our eyes to his.

"What are you talking about?" I stuttered.

He dropped my hands and looked straight into my eyes with a look I have seen other higher-ranked wolves look at me with.

My heart was already trembling, but I held on to it.

"I have tried to make this work, Larissa, but it can't. You are an omega. You are weak. You are useless. I can't be with someone like you!"

Tears splattered down my cheeks, and my heart was about to explode.

"No. No. You don't-don't mean that." I whimpered, fighting back my sobs.

I moved closer to him and tried to hold him but he pushed me away.

"There is nothing we can do, Larissa. We can't keep forcing this-I can't keep pretending that this is fine! You are way below my rank, and that cannot work!" He yelled.

I couldn't imagine where he got these horrible words from. Peter was never like this. The man I had given my body to wasn't like this.

"Peter, please, we can talk about this!" I cried desperately, trying to hold on to him, but he roughly pushed me aside.

"There is nothing to talk about, Larissa! I am rejecting you!" He yelled, and I felt my heart shatter.

"I, Peter, son of the beta, reject you, Larissa, an ordinary Omega!"
