Omega's Heartbreak: Wolff College Omegas, #2

By Kellan Larkin

I had never fallen for a guy this hard in my life. I had had crushes, but this was different. The connection between Alpha and Omega was the real thing.

AJ's an Alpha wolf who's stuck with shitty friends and a case of anxiety. When he meets Dex at a speed dating event, the sparks fly and he thinks he's found his fated mate. With Dex, AJ feels like he can be the Alpha he's meant to be.

Trouble brews when AJ's homophobic friends show their true colors. Can AJ stand up to his friends and assert himself as an Alpha? And will Dex wait around for him to become the Alpha an Omega needs?

I sighed with frustration for the hundredth time. I didn't want to be here. I knew that Wolff College was a prestigious school and that getting a degree from here would open up doors, as my parents said, but I couldn't help but feel like I was wasting my time and their money by taking classes in obscure topics like 18th-century German history—a general education requirement.

What I really wanted to do was work with children, but unfortunately, Wolff College didn't have a school of education. I had to settle with getting an English degree, which my advisor suggested would help me get started as an elementary school teacher. The thought of going through all this schooling was loathsome, but deep down, I knew my parents were right. They just wanted me to have a good life, and having more education would definitely help me in the

long

run

.

So here I was, slogging away through my classes for four years. I tried to get some experience by working at the school's childcare center, which existed for the benefit of students who had children, but it wasn't as much as I would have liked.

My real dream was to have a huge family of my own. I loved the idea of having lots of little wolf pups running around my backyard, weaving around my feet, and laughing and playing around me. I loved their innocent expressions and how they regarded everything in the world with a fresh perspective. There was nothing like working with children to make you realize what life was really about.

But of course, before I could have a family, I had to find someone to start a family with, and I hadn't had much luck there. The thing about being an Omega is that it's not seemly to go pursuing Alphas. They find it emasculating to be pursued. What turns an Alpha on is the opportunity to chase after you. They want the thrill of not knowing if they're going to get you or not, and finally succeeding.

I tried my best to get the attention of some of the sexier Alphas on campus, but to no avail. I consulted with some of my friends and they didn't have any ideas to help me. They were humans, so they just told me I should ask someone out, but I couldn't do that. Not unless I wanted to date humans.

I could settle down with a human mate, but I couldn't have children with him because he wouldn't be able to impregnate me. The sex wouldn't be as good either, and that was important to me. There was no human experience like the Alpha-

Omega

bond

Hey, Dex, have you seen this? asked my friend, Jace, catching up with me as I walked out of my class.

What is it? I asked.

He showed me his cell phone. An email was open on the screen. "It's a speed dating event. I was thinking we could both go try it out. It's only for gay guys, so that’d make finding partners easier

for

us

."

I considered his offer. It would be really nice to scope out guys and not have to worry about whether they were straight or not, and maybe I could find a nice shifter guy. If not an Alpha, then at least

a

Beta

.

Sure, I said. "That looks interesting. When

is

it

?"

It's tonight, he said. In the campus center.

That's not a location I would find conducive to romance, I said. The campus center was where you went for student government meetings, yearbook photos, and all that jazz. It was an odd choice to have a speed dating event there.

Me neither, but it's worth a try. Want to get dinner and then go? asked Jace, still eager and optimistic.

Yeah, I said, following him to the cafeteria. "Let's

do

this

."

I had never been to a speed dating type of event, so my mind was racing as I went through the dinner line and got my food. How long would I have to talk to the other guys? What if I ran into someone I knew? Would it be awkward? Well, the only thing I could do was show up and see how

it

was

.

It turned out I had no idea what I was getting

myself

into

To their credit, the school had done a pretty good job of sexing up the campus center. They had turned the lights down and put up party decorations, like tinsel stars. There was a selection of tables that the
