Chapter Text
For Kara Zor-El, that would be a morning like any other she had experienced in recent weeks. Her colleagues, Sam, Nia and Mxy were leaning on the sill of the office's large window, talking to each other and discussing the beauty of the factory workers working on the construction site in the building opposite.
They all worked at the electronic magazine AlphaVerse, a publication aimed at young alpha audiences and, at the moment, Kara was trying to concentrate on writing the article "How to survive the rut routine without a partner".
If her friends hadn't been there making so much noise, she wouldn't have had any difficulty focusing on the topic, after all, had extensive experience on the subject. Their heats used to be very solitary.
"That one over there thinks he's the alpha of alphas. See how he shows off lifting all that weight." said Mxy, observing a muscular guy who was lifting a beam alone.
"I just wanted a hot guy like that to help me with my next heat." Nia added, fanning herself exaggeratedly with her hand, pretending to be very hot.
"That brunette is new to the team. I had never seen her before, and I wouldn't forget a face as beautiful as hers." Sam commented, making the other two look in the same direction.
"You and your fetish for brunettes." Mxy mocked, provoking Sam.
"It's not a fetish, it's a preference."
"By Rao, could you guys please speak more quietly?" Kara evoked one of the wolf deities, starting to get irritated by her friends' futile conversation.
Mxy, Sam and Nia looked at each other and started laughing at the young alpha.
"Don't be grumpy, little alpha! You know that for us omegas, moments like this are a kind of reparation. Only at these times can we objectify alphas and treat them like a piece of meat in a shop window, the same way that they treat us. Don't take it personally.", argued Mxy, approaching Kara's table.
"Right, Mxy. I am the first to support such a just cause. However, I need to finish this article by noon and I would be very grateful if you would objectify alphas in a lower tone."
The omega smiled and walked around the table, bending down close to the blonde to look at the laptop screen, reading what she had already written there.
"How to survive the rut routine without a partner", he read the title aloud. "You're doing well!" mocked the alpha, squeezing her shoulders.
"If all of youcollaborated and didn't make so much noise, I would have already written a ten-page text. You know I don't lack experience."
"You're so inexperienced because you want to be." Sam joined the conversation. "In this room alone, there are three omegas who would love to help you with your routine. You just had to ask."
Kara felt her ears burn.
"Guys, shall we change the subject?" said Nia, looking from Kara to the other two peolple in the room. "Kara is always uncomfortable with these conversations."
"Sorry, Kar!" Sam said, feeling bad for embarrassing her friend.
Kara smirked.
"It's okay, Sam!"
As Nia and Sam turned their attention to the workers in the building opposite, Mxy leaned against the blonde's desk, crossing his arms.
"Hey, I know you don't like to talk about this, but I wanted to understand why you have so much aversion to your own status."
Kara took her eyes off the laptop screen and looked at her friend.
"In short, I grew up in foster care and I can guarantee that I never had a positive example of an alpha. It's difficult to like your own nature when it only brings back bad memories." She fell silent, looking away.
Mxy didn't know what to say. He had never dealt with alphas before who felt ashamed of being alphas. Generally, individuals who had this status were full of themselves, arrogant, and very dominant. Traits that the shy woman sitting in front of him didn't seem to possess. On the contrary, Kara has always been introspective and super discreet.
"The spoilsport woman boss has arrived." Sam's voice caught the Mxy attention who, quickly forgetting the conversation with Kara, pushed himself off the table, approaching the window again.
"Rao, help me, she's even more beautiful today!" He murmured with a voice filled with fascination.
"Yes, but what is beautiful is also unbearable. Whenever she appears, the fun ends, because the handsome guys stop showing off to us." Nia grumbled, looking at the woman in the center of the construction site.
She was an attractive brunette, wearing a navy blue pinstripe suit with a black silk shirt underneath. Since the woman appeared at the construction, the workers have become more motivated to work, stopping showing off to the three omegas who, about two weeks ago, were leaning over the windowsill of the building opposite to watch with visible excitement the daily lives of those workers, excited by the demonstration of strength and the with half-naked and sweaty bodies of the alphas.
"She will to send them to put on their shirts!" Sam prophesied.
In the next instant, that was exactly what happened. After the mysterious brunette said half a dozen words, all the alphas hurried to cover their upper bodies, blocking the view of their naked, muscular torsos.
“Sam and her damn mouth,” Nia grumbled.
"What a domineering woman, sir!" Mxy said, excited by the alpha brunette's demonstration of power over others at the work.
Overcome by her friends' cluelessness, Kara decided to step away from the table and take some time to see if the ideas for the article materialized in her head. She walked closer to the other three. The young alpha had never dedicated a second of her day to look at the workers in the building opposite, much less knew who this woman was who, sometimes, appeared at the construction site and interrupted the morning entertainment of her colleagues. However, as she got tired of looking at a blank screen without knowing what to write, she thought it would be better to join the three of them and understand why there was so much excitation, especially on Mxy's part, with the arrival of the mysterious woman at the construction site.
"Shit, now even I got excited, imagining this woman in bed." Sam commented, while Kara trying to see over their shoulders of the others.
"Don't you dare, I saw her first." said Mxy, pretending to rival Sam.
"Rao protect me, you are very stereotypical omegas." Nia was indignant. "In a little while, the two be cross the street and get down on all fours, begging the bossy girl over there to mount you guys."
Sam and Mxy laughed at their friend's comment and Kara blushed again. As much as she was used to her friends' foul-mouthed ways, she still felt shy about some of the comments they made.
"For me, the fun is over. I better go back to my job." Nia left one end of the window, returning to a table in the corner of the room. She was responsible for the gastronomy section of the electronic magazine and, secretly, cultivated the dream of having her own restaurant.
Kara took advantage and took her place at the window, finally being able to see the workers in the building opposite. She adjusted her glasses that had slid down her nose, trying to focus on the people better.
"I would be a obedient good wolf and let that bossy wolf woman mount me whenever she wanted!" Mxy stated without embarrassment.
Kara looked in the direction her eyes were and when she focused on the woman's figure, the young alpha felt her body shudder. Her mouth went dry and she felt a strange tingling in her stomach. The woman was very beautiful, indeed. She displayed an imposing posture and looked like a goddess occupying the center of the world.
"We all know you're a submissive puppy, Mxy! No need to spread it even further to the world." Sam smiled, also looking at the other brunette.
"What will her name be?" Mxy frowned.
Almost at the same moment, as if she felt she was being spied on, the woman turned her face, finding three pairs of eyes on her. Her gaze quickly became fierce. She crossed her arms in a hostile attitude and held each of the three's gaze.
Faced with that threatening look, Mxy and Sam were bewildered and took a step back, away from the window.
Even though she was also scared, Kara still managed to hold the brunette's gaze for a while longer, not wanting to succumb so quickly to the dominance of another alpha, however, realizing that this was typical alpha behavior, she felt embarrassed and, finally, gave in, moving away from the window and the strange and unexpected attraction for that unknown woman.
