Silver Moon High School

Skylar Brown walked into the classroom, her books wrapped about her chest with her arms. She could feel the stares coming from everyone in the room. Not a single soul wouldn’t look at her, after all, she was an oddball, “the only Omega in Silver Moon High school”. But she didn’t mind the stares, she walked over to her desk which was at the darkest corner of the classroom, quite far from the rest of her classmates. She looked at her desk, and noticed the black spray paints on them. Reading the words sprayed on her table, tears began to cloud her eyes, she inhaled deeply, not wanting to make it obvious and placed her book on the desk. Just as she tried to sit down, she felt a very strong grip on her golden brown hair.

“Hey Skylar” a voice behind her greeted. Skylar shut her eyes in pain, as the perpetrator tightened it’s grip.

“Bianca please, not today” Skylar begged, as she tried to loosen the grip from her hair. But just as she tried to do this, Bianca dragged Skylar to the floor, still by pulling her hair. Skylar whimpered, but she tried to stand up despite the pain she felt. But just as she tried to stand, Bianca kicked her on the chest, the force sent her straight to the floor again and this time, she cried loudly.

“Bianca please stop this!” Skylar cried. Bianca chuckled, while everyone watched them. No one said a word or cared to stop the fight.

“You decided not to leave this school, I warned ya” Bianca said. She immediately proceeded to place her feet on Skylar’s chest, staining her white shirt.

“I guess you are not just a lowly omega, but a stubborn one at that’ Bianca remarked. And just in an instant, she flashed her claws. Skylar’s eyes widened in terror by the sight of Bianca’s long, pointy claws which looked eager to pierce through her flesh.

“I think I’m going to destroy that pretty little face of yours for a start” Bianca remarked again. Skylar at this point tried to stand, but the more she did, she sharper the pain from Bianca’s shoe pierced into her chest. But just before Bianca could sink her claws into Skylar’s face someone called out.

“Liam is here!” were the words this person spoke. And immediately, Bianca hid her claw behind her black skirt and took her foot off Skylar. Skylar watched Bianca’s  claw receded and she, tried getting on her feet immediately. Everyone in the class began to position themselves properly as Liam, accompanied by two other boys his age walked into the classroom. Their uniform seemed to be different from others, well tailored for tall but slim bodies. Liam’s well trimmed blond hair graced his perfectly shaped head, his silver colored eyes, thin lips and perfectly pointed nose made the other girls in class gush over him. When Bianca noticed any girl acting up, she glared at them, prompting them to stop their purring. She then smiled sweetly and walked up to Liam. Immediately Liam sighted her, he smiled and in no time, they were in each other’s arms. Just as Skylar decided to walk back to her desk, Bianca began to sob.

“Hey babe, what’s wrong?” Liam asked, as he tried scanning her face as though he would get an answer for it. Bianca turned, raised her slim fingers at the direction where Skylar was, limping back to her desk.

“That girl threatened to tear me to shreds. I don’t know what I did, I don’t know” Bianca narrated and immediately started sobbing again. Liam’s silver colored eyes flashed, as he turned his gaze to an already seated Skylar. He left Bianca and immediately charged at Skylar. Before the poor girl could lift her head, Liam dragged her by the shirt, suspending her in air.

“How dare you threaten my Bianca you lowlife?” Liam growled. Skylar could sight Bianca grinning from ear to ear from where she stood. She let out a tired sigh, before she turned her gaze back to Liam. She scanned his fiery face and the other complacent faces that filled the room. And in that instant, she lost any will whatsoever, no one and nowhere wanted her, at this point, death didn’t even seem to scare her besides, no one cared.

“Does it seem I would even try to walk on the same path with Bianca, let alone threaten her? Are you just a fool or you both are looking for any silly excuse to finish me off?” Skylar asked. Immediately, everyone in the room gasped, some began to mutter within themselves. Liam’s breathing began to get rapid, he tightened his grip on the collar of   Skylar’s shirt which began to choke her.

“You filthy thing, how dare you speak to me Liam Marwick that way? Have you forgotten your place as omega….?”

“And you as alpha? The answer is, I do know my place and keep to it, but no one else does the same. If my blood being drawn out of me would appease you and Bianca, please do take it. It’s tiring already!” Skylar interrupted. The murmuring became more intense and Liam raised his hand, claws out, ready to hit her. But just as he tried to, he couldn’t help but look into Skylar’s golden brown eyes. The tears that gathered in her eyes,  the pain and tiredness, he could see it all. Liam wasn’t the type to be moved by petty emotions but for some reasons he couldn’t fathom, he was lost in the stories her eyes told.

“Liam, it’s okay. Just let her off today” someone muttered. Liam turned his head a bit, and saw his friend’s hand on his shoulder. He let out a sigh, and released his grip, making Skylar hit the floor again. Liam just walked over to his desk without saying a word to anyone, even Bianca. While Skylar stood up and sat down on her seat, placing her head on her desk. Her whole body ached, especially her chest, she just lay there breathing heavily until she heard footsteps approaching. Just as Skylar lay on her desk, she noticed students stand to their feet. She knew what it meant and quickly did the same, regardless of how much her body ached.

“Good morning Mrs. Woods” the class chorused. Mrs. Woods elegantly walked to the front of the classroom and stood for about a minute, observing the students in front of her where she stood.

“You may all sit” she responded and everyone tried to take their seats. Skylar couldn’t sit down immediately due to her pain, and Mrs. Woods noticed her.

“And why do you look a mess on a Monday morning?” Mrs. Woods asked. Skylar swallowed hard before any words could leave her mouth,

“I-I-I fell” she stammered. Mrs. Woods scoffed immediately she heard Skylar’s answer.

“Falling doesn’t get you looking like a homeless wretch Miss Skylar” Mrs. Woods responded and instantly, the whole room roared with laughter. Skylar sunk her head, picking her fingernails as the laughter continued to ring. But in the crowd of hearty laughers, Liam stared at Skylar.

The bell had been rung, the school activities for the day were over. Skylar managed to hurry off without anyone noticing her, her steps fast paced to avoid any confrontation. She was able to safely make it to a small pond which was quite far from where every other person was, there was a small bench not far from the pond, so Skylar walked over to this bench and sat on it. She let out a deep sigh, for once, she could get some peace and quiet before the other students would be done with lunch and begin to head back to the dorm. She found a few pebbles beside her feet, and decided to throw them one after the other while she engaged her thoughts. A lot of events began to flood into her thoughts, how she got to be in this situation. She had been a servant of the Radcliff family, after her parents were killed. She had always dreamed of going to school, but of course her status as a servant never let her masters sign her a permit.

“Omegas have no business in a classroom” Mr. Radcliff
