Page 14 of Knot Their Omega

As for Omegas, now that they know us Alphas are going to be forced to be desperate in choosing an Omega, the majority seem to get cockier by the season.

If it wasn’t for the government instilling these meets and forcing Omegas to attend—orface severe consequences—I’m positive every Omega would have said ‘fuck Alphas,’ found an island of their own, and lived on it, male-free. Heck, they would rather live with a bunch of bears than us.

Watch our race die.

It’s amusing but then again, a part of me does want an Omega.A part.The remaining percentage would rather take suppressants for the rest of my life, but fuck.

Those have dangerous side effects, and I don’t want to increase my chances of rut-blocker-related diseases. Imagine becoming incompetent in the bedroom because of these blocking capsules. Fuck. The world would never let it go.

“Even having these Alphas flaunt that they come to my gym isn’t strong enough to secure them a second date with an Omega these days,” Knox confesses. “The government is announcing on Monday the official Omega Alpha Population Report. Also wishes to discuss the Knot Their Omega movement.”

“The what?” Now that’s new. “Knot What Movement?”

“Knot Their Omega movement organized by a group of superior Omegas who are tired of the government’s bullshit,” Knox reveals.

“Tell me Velvet’s the leader.” Truthfully, that would have been cool. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was. She’s always been a woman who enjoys pushing everyone’s buttons, especially the government.

It’s one of the reasons why they can’t shut her haven down. She’sso powerful on the Omega scale of popularity, money, and real estate that going after her would be the stupidest way of starting a gender war in history.

“She’s not,” Knox chuckles. “She was tempted, but even she knows there are only so many buttons you can keep pressing before you’re wiped out of this world, nice and clean.”

Okay. That’s fair.

Even the government runs out of ‘fucks to give’ when money is on the line. All morals go out the door for the sake of financial benefit and popularity in the eyes of greedy men.

“So what does this movement entail?” I might as well get the facts. If these superior Omegas have a chance to implement whatever this movement is about, we’re going to have a problem.

Especially me and my brothers when we’ve yet to find an Omega.

“We’re aware the abuse of Omegas in Alpha packs has skyrocketed the last couple of years,” Knox points out something that’s not talked about enough.

The abuse. The forced marriages. The degrading shit some of these Omegas endure out of their Alpha’s expense and satisfaction—for the most part.

“With the Omegas becoming more aware of our population problem, they wish to reclaim a bit of power in this unbalanced dynamic.”

Don’t blame them.

“So that will encourage such?”

“If the government wants Omegas to continue these mandatory meets, the Omegas, in return, will be allowed to create a set of rules that will be legally binding by this movement, which, if agreed upon with the government, can become an active law.”

“A law?” I gasp in surprise because this is a big fucking deal. Omegas managed to push the government for a movement that favors them and is legally binding. “What big rich Omegas are encouraging this movement? Heck, they have to be seven-to-eight figures.”

“Money talks, bullshit listens,” Knox expresses with a smirk as he rolls his shoulders and proceeds to walk to the ledge of the balcony to outstretch his arms along the metal surface. “From the glimpse of the private broadcast, these Omegas’ identities are protected, meaning they got big-ass pockets. Even the Black Market is being hushed.”

He shrugs and enjoys another go at his cigarette.

“Either way, it looks like the Knot Their Omega law will give the Omega the power to decide on a temporary pack for three months before they can request a long-term commitment. After that request, if the Omega feels compatible with the chosen pack, they can affirm the pack legally and be bound by the law or step it up with marriage, which will reap new benefits for both Alphas and Omegas.”

“And these benefits include?”

I know marriage is sought between Omegas and Alphas because it brings a lot of advantages to Alphas in particular. With more lending money from banks, society advances in rank and power. Better opportunities.

You’re rewarded for being whole.

Omegas, however, don’t reap much of anything. Aside from having a pack to help with their Heat, there isn’t much being offered in return unless their Alphas pamper them like we’re genetically made to do.

“You already know the benefits for Alphas,” Knox notes and takes a look at me, anticipating my nod. “But for Omegas, it will be new. I didn’t get a chance to review everything before coming here, but it mostly surrounds independence. Opportunities to continue careers and positions the Omega carried out before meeting and choosing a pack. The privilege to go out alone, maintain or enroll in further education, drive better-branded cars that aren’t the basic Toyota Corolla, and be privileged tobetter public transportation options, including luxury Ubers or private drivers.”
