(Nikita's P.O.V.)
" Nikita! You need to know that you are a woman, and women are always going to be crushed under men. " I took another punch to the stomach and was pinned down by the male warrior who roared angrily at me.
"Don't think just because your mother is an alpha, you're different from other omegas! Not only are you an omega, but you're also a woman, and the weak will always be weak!"
He spat in my face and I snarled with anger, baring my sharp teeth. "You b*stard! I haven't lost yet!"
I tried to get up, but he slapped me again with his paw, causing searing pain and blood to trickle from my mouth.
No! I won't give up! I won't allow myself to lose in this test, and I refuse to be an omega forever! So I secretly registered for this test without my mother - Alpha Lucia's knowledge. But when I failed, I could imagine the fury in my mother's eyes. She would surely kill me mercilessly!
She would never be disappointed in me for being a woman, but when she found out that I was a low-ranking Omega, her despairing look was something I could never forget, and I never want to see it again.
Since then, I was kicked out of the alpha's mansion and was deprived of training. "Omegas only need to learn how to cook and keep the floor clean," my mother coldly said before ordering me to move to the omega's shed.
I hated her! But I still admired her as she was my direction and motivation. I need to prove to her that an Omega cannot always be an Omega! I can also contribute to protecting the pack, not just by relying on a mate.
I am sure that I will win!
I used all my strength to lift myself up and called for my wolf in my mind. When I successfully shifted again, I pounced on Gio while he was celebrating his victory.
"You b*tch!" Gio's pupils dilated as he stepped back, then suddenly charged towards me. I didn't expect him to react that fast, and I didn't have time to dodge. He slammed me into the training field's wall.
God wasn't on my side, and with a thud, I fell off the wall, feeling my ribs shatter. I turned into human form, and I... failed again.
I tried to bend my body to ease the pain, but I couldn't. I could only watch as they spat on me and insulted me with words.
"If it weren't for the rules, I would've killed you by now," Gio stood over me, looking at me like a piece of merchandise. "But you should be grateful that you're still a pretty corpse."
The other werewolves around laughed at me. "Gio, don't be so cruel. This poor omega is still dreaming of leading us. Don't shatter Nikita's beautiful dreams."
"Leading us? By giving those shameless rogues a blowjob with her pretty little mouth? Begging for strength in that way..."
"Ahahaha! Don't be ridiculous! But maybe we can suggest to sell her to another powerful Alpha, so that her beauty can have meaning, instead of adding unnecessary scars to her beautiful body like now, right?"
More insults hit me like stones, and I couldn't tell if the pain on my body was worse than the pain in my heart.
Tears streamed down my face silently. Why? I trained hard to avoid this kind of situation today. I believe that being an Alpha descendant is not a coincidence. It must be that my power has not been fully awakened!
But my unwillingness will only bring me more pain and humiliation, like today. As I was about to lose consciousness, Alpha Lucia's angry face appeared in front of me.
"Nikita! Are you challenging my authority?"
"Beta Poppy, take her to my room. She needs to receive punishment for breaking the rules!"
My consciousness became increasingly blurry, and finally, I fell into darkness.
I don't know how long it took, but Alpha Lucia's and Beta's voices appeared in my ears.
"Alpha Lucia, are you sure you want to do this?" Beta asked uncertainly.
"I am sure. She has proven her weakness many times, and marrying a powerful Alpha is the best protection for her, isn't it?"
What?! Who wants to get married? No! I won't let my mother sell me like a commodity to some arrogant Alpha jerk. All Alphas are arrogant jerks who never know how to respect women. They are proud of their strength and muscles, which make them have the capital to ignore women, especially when they know that their mate is an Omega. I am sure that they want not only a mark but also to angrily bite off their necks.
I am glad that I have not found my mate. Werewolves believe that this is the punishment of the moon goddess, but for me, it is a blessing! I cannot understand how two strangers can walk towards each other in awe and collapse in each other's arms after saying "mate".
Only a small number of werewolves have their souls and bonds bound together! They claim each other, and their souls are very compatible! But not all werewolves are so lucky! And I know I am definitely the unfortunate one.
My Omega blood proves all of this.
"No! I refuse!" I stood up and faced my mother angrily!
Alpha Lucia was obviously angrier, and her face became stiff. "Do you think you can refuse?"
