★Nuel's POV★
Being a male omega was a death sentence, that much I already knew. A rarity. An omen.
An alpha's male omega? That was worse. Such an alpha would rather die than father a child like that. I had learned that the hard way and I reminded myself of it every single day in order to stay cautious, to keep my secret buried and never reveal who I truly was to anyone.
But again what was I doing here? I asked myself, shaking off the heavy thoughts that had begun to drown me again. My mind drifted back to the crowd earlier, to the murmurs, to the decree Alpha Noca had so proudly amended. The pompous alpha hadn't overturned it as people said he promised he would. No, he had only reacted to his own promise, twisting his words to his favor.
"If he survived," he'd said, "then there would be no death sentence for same-gendered wolves who are each other's mates and Nivaras."
