I spent half my day in the records room and didn’t get through a third of the information. There was so much information I’d never seen before or knew existed. The laws regarding Omegas changed almost weekly for a while after the attack. Some were good ideas, others were trash, and I’m glad they got thrown out. Then they started to develop the system we have today but instead of just placing them with a pack who met the criteria they had them apply. Omegas still had a choice in the matter but the packs that passed and didn’t have the money to stay in the game started to riot.

This was when they took choice out of the equation altogether. Now it was which pack was next in line. How much money did they donate? Who were they related to, and what benefit could they bring to the members of the CoF?

Of course, this wasn’t how it was written on paper but I could read between the lines. It wasn’t hard to see those that got favored or even moved up the line when they greased the wheels. As a member of the CoF I’m entitled to an Omega joining our pack, but the problem lies in the fact I can’t choose who the Omega was. They give out whichever Omega was ready to begin breeding. When they were collected at sixteen, when their designation appears, they are trained, educated, and prepared for a life to be pampered and produce offspring that will hopefully be Omegas.

If Cambrie went into the program, I had no idea if she’d be the one we’d be given or if it would be another eligible Omega. You’d think we’d be sending them out to packs as soon as they were ready but no, we have ten Omegas, according to the report, that can be paired with a pack but none of the applicants could entice Yoram’s attention with a bribe. Everything I learned about this whole situation was just asinine.

A knock sounded on my actual office door. After lunch I’d come up here to get some real work done. Even if I couldn’t deal with the major problems we still had day to day issues to deal with keeping the city running. “Come in,” I called.

There was only one person my secretary didn’t alert me to and it was the devil himself. Yoram opened the door and stepped in, closing it behind him. He was tall and slim with a head full of neatly styled white hair, with a full silver mustache. Every suit he wore was simple and classic with everything in its place and pressed with sharp seams. The only pop of color he had was his tie and pocket handkerchief which today was a bold fuchsia. His belt always matched his shoes which were shined so you could see your reflection.

The old Alpha had a backbone of steel and never once slouched or had a momentary lapse of bad posture. He was rigid in his appearance as he was crooked in his politics.
