[Third-person narration]
I'm an ordinary alpha, but my family is anything but ordinary.
My first dad is rich, my second dad has power, my big brother has brawn, and my second brother has brains.
Me? I'm thoroughly average. Well... except that I'm good-looking?
I may be completely ordinary, but my best friend isn't!
He's the legendary child prodigy, a living legend since childhood, the kind of genius who could be directing the financial world with a computer in his arms over the internet at age three.
My best friend and I were born on the same day. Our families had our genes tested early on, and we each had a 90% chance of presenting as an alpha.
I was one of the 90%.
My best friend was one of the unlucky 10%.
He presented as an omega. I hugged a rabbit and cried for two hours that day. Nothing else, really. Alphas and omegas are different, and we couldn't run around and play together anymore.
Then the next day, he went into heat.
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I... did it with him.
And both our parents caught us in bed!
Once an omega is marked, they can only get through their heats with one alpha's pheromones for the rest of their life. There is a technology to remove a mark now, but it's not very reliable and can cause serious harm to the body. Since our families were well matched and we'd been close since childhood, we naturally got married.
A best friend is a best friend. He can't be my wife...
Even if my wife smells amazing, it's still a no.
In the third year of our dull, passionless marriage,
my best friend presented for a second time.
This time, he was an alpha.
Everyone happily declared the marriage between two alphas invalid.
My wife was gone just like that!!!
[Warnings]
Please, no extreme top- or bottom-purists. Just enjoy watching this couple fall in love.
