Another task

The teacher had me send some books to her class. According to her, there will be a competition between the Alphas and Omegas in the school.

Thankfully, it was more of a book competition. I guess they are aware that should it be a competition to show our prowess, the Omegas will be disadvantaged—

I collided with someone. The force caused me to fall back. However, instead of feeling the familiar arms that always catch me, I fell on my damned arse.

"Shit!"

I glared up at the person who collided with me, only to find Storm grinning like a fool.

"Why? Can't an omega wedge his fall? Were you expecting me to catch you?" He pursed his lips.

"Go to hell!" I gritted under my teeth.

Though my arse hurts from the fall, there was no way in hell that I will allow him to know my pain.

"Oh, he's still feisty enough to shout?" He snickered.

I slowly rose from the ground and dusted my arse before I made to pick up the fallen books.

"Why do you even bother to help?" He placed his foot on the book I tried to pick up. "You Omegas are no match for us Alphas. When it comes to brains and brawns, we are capable."

I tugged on the book, but he matched hard on it.

"What's wrong with you?" I angrily faced him. "Do you think being an Alpha is an achievement? You guys are just bullies who exert your dominance on others because you are pathetic!" I pointed at him. "If you know what's best for you, you will avoid me!"

Storm scoffed. "You are quite interesting for an Omega. I've never seen one with as much fire as you."

"And you will never see." I folded my arms.

"Cocky, are we?" His lips quirked to a side. "I love your fire." He winked at me, "See you later, Omega."

He turned to leave, but at the last minute, he turned and kicked the books. "It will give you much to do now, sweetie." He laughed to himself as he slowly turned the corner.

"Cocky fool!" I clenched my fists.

How can someone be as arrogant as him?

Yet, I didn't allow him to bother me much. I turned and started picking the books. The teacher might be worried should I waste much time.

"Hurry, Brys! You have gotten another assignment!" Fan instantly appeared.

"What's it this time?" I glared at him as I tried to pack the books Storm kicked all over the place. "Don't tell me you want me to piss the stupid Alpha off, and get him to punch me?" I pursed my lips.

"No! That's not it. Some Betas bullied an Omega by throwing her into a ditch. She was lucky enough that she held on to a tree branch.

You need to save her, and—"

I dropped the books.

"Where is she?"

"Wait a minute, I'm not even through! You have to save her and fall into a ditch. Storm will pass there fifteen minutes later. You can call him, and he will save—"

"Where is the damned girl!" I growled at him. "Tell me, where is she?"

"At the back of the Alpha's hostel. The hole is close to the garden—"

I didn't wait for him to complete his words before I took off towards the Alphas' dorms. Though this never happened in the comic I read, there was no way I will allow an Omega to perish when I can help her.

I ran to the scene. And just like Fan said, a girl was hanging by a branch which seemed like it was going to break any moment.

"Help!"

She shrieked out.

"Hold on, I'm going to help you out of there." I lay on the ground and stretched my hand towards her. "Hold on to me. I will pull you out of there!"

"That's not how this is going to happen, Brys. You need to fall in there, in a bid to save her. Storm will be the one to save you! That should be the start of your love for him!" Fan shrieked.

"Love?"

I scoffed at his words.

Only a fool will like a person who bullies him without feeling an ounce of remorse.

Storm is a bully who should be killed!

"Hold on to me!" I ordered the scared girl. "I won't hurt you, okay?"

Her mouth shook a bit.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. I only want to save you, so give me your hand before it's too late."

She peered at me with her blue eyes which seemed to be filled with fear, before she gave me her right hand.

"Good."

I slowly dragged her out of the pit without falling in like Fan asked me to do.

"Thank you."

The girl's shoulders quivered from fear.

"You are safe now, okay?" I gently placed my hand on her back. "It's okay. They won't bully you any more. You are safe with me."

"Thank you." She sobbed. "Without you..." She trailed off as her body continued to shake.

"You are a fool! Why didn't you fall into the pit? You were supposed to be saved by Storm, but no! Now, you are going to get the punishment you so deserved for breaking the rules!" Fan shrieked.

"Rules—"

"My, my, my, who do we have here?"

At the sound of the unfamiliar voice, I turned to see five Alphas and three Betas. They stood not too far from us, with predatory smirks on their faces.

"Oh, my. Is he trying to act like a knight in shining armour?" A beta scoffed.

The girl shrieked.

And from her reactions, I can tell that they were the ones who bullied her.

"What do you guys want?" I rose from my sitting position and folded my arms.

"Oh, isn't he acting brash for an Omega?" One of the Alphas stepped forward. "You are too cute for an Omega." He gave me a once over, "I will let your actions and words slide if you will Just leave that Omega behind, and —"

"I will never do that! She's now under my care. If you dare to hurt her, I will send my wrath out on you!" I growled.

Though I was quite aware that there was no way I could defeat them should they come after me at once, I'm aware that backing down without a fight makes me a coward. And I'm no weakling. I won't allow others to bully me.

"Brys, you need to stop! You are digging a grave for yourself." Fan tried to warn me, but I tuned his words out.

"Seems like you want to be beaten, don't you?" The Beta next to the Alpha growled.

"Let's see who gets beaten," I smirked, sounding more confident than I felt.
