By the end of class, the students are streaming out for lunch. Eren packs his bag and heads toward the cafeteria, his calm steps carrying him past the bustling hallways. When he arrives, he spots Yuna waiting for him, as usual. But today, something immediately catches his eye—Kael, the new transfer student, is at the center of attention.
Some students whisper about his poor family. Others snicker about him being a male omega. A few comment on his scholarship status. Eren watches carefully, noting the variety of expressions on the students' faces—mockery, admiration, pity, and even envy. Despite it all, he stays quiet, thinking to himself that it's none of his concern.
Kael grabs his lunch and quietly makes his way to a corner. But trouble isn't far behind. John and his gang of bullies notice him instantly. As soon as they approach, John signals one of his friends. The friend deliberately collides with Kael, sending his lunch crashing to the floor. Laughter eco across the cafeteria, loud and cruel.
John's voice cuts through the chaos. "Look at this fragile little omega! He's about to start crying. Omegas are always so delicate they need an alpha to look after them."
Many omegas glance at Kael, anger and frustration flashing across their faces, but what can they do? Alpha's are stronger, their presence overwhelming, their dominance impossible to resist.
From the second floor, Eren and Yuna watch the scene unfold. Yuna mutters, "John and his gang have gone too far. They're always picking on poor omegas and betas."
Eren shrugs, eyes calm. "It doesn't concern us. Just finish your lunch. Break is almost over."
Yuna rolls his eyes. "Eren, you're so cold. Don't you feel anything? He's such a cute omega…"
Eren simply ignores him.
Meanwhile, the bullying just pushed kael and shoved, his shoulders, arms, and legs blocked by John's gang. John laughs, his voice dripping with mockery. "Hahaha, pathetic! He can't even stand up properly."
Than John look kael up and down and suddenly John Without warning, he grabs Kael by the waist and pulls him into a tight hug. His voice is low, intense, and filled with dark desire. "If you make me happy tonight, I won't bully you… I'll even pay you for it."
The other bullies laugh at the audacity. One said , "Boss, after you, it's our turn," sticking his tongue out at Kael.
Kael's face pales. "Leave me alone! How dare you say that!"
John sneers. "Omegas from poor families like you only sell their bodies for money. No need to make such a fuss." Laughter echoes again, loud and merciless.
Even the other Alpha's in the cafeteria laugh, while some watch Kael with pity. Kael's eyes flash with fury, a storm building inside him.
When John moves to speak again, Kael snaps. He slaps John hard across the face. Silence falls instantly. The cafeteria freezes. Every student stares, shocked, as Kael and John lock eyes—one filled with anger , the other with disbelief.
