Chapter 72 - 3.12 Altair Is His!
"Hey, have you heard of it?"
"Yeah, many people have been talking about it. Is that true? Our school will finally have a transfer student and a winged beastman at that?!"
"Yes, oh God, a few boys who played basketball after school caught sight of him. The wings are a real deal you know. And guess what, I even heard the hearsays that the transfer student has more beast signs on his body except for the wings!"
"Oh my God, just the wings are already unheard of and he has more? Who do you think he is? How could it be possible that we haven’t heard of him until today??!"
"Nah, no one knows about that. I heard that even the Principal went out of his office to welcome him. Sheesh, I really want to see what kind of beastman he is but Omegas like us won’t have any chance to bump into an Alpha like him, right?"
Oliver opened his locker and coincidentally heard some students gossiping nearby. Wings...? Who else would it be? They must be talking about Altair! Oliver’s heart skipped a beat and even though he had finished taking the notes he needed, he still stayed there to eavesdrop.
Altair...registered into his school? Why didn’t the Alpha say anything about it?
Their last encounter was in the Royal Palace four days ago. After Altair and his colleague Derek officially made a visit to the Palace, Emperor Bernard had kept them there for two more days in order to show them around. With the excuse that he wasn’t feeling well due to his first heat, Oliver seized the chance to take a leave of absence from school and accompanied Altair for those two days. Gradually, they got to know each other. Oliver learned that although Altair had a physique that would surely make him popular with Omegas, he had almost no experience at all regarding the sexual affairs of Alphas and Omegas. He also lived in a skyhouse a hundred thousand feets above ground. The breathtaking scenery, vast expanse of cotton-like clouds and majestic bursts of golden hour; Altair had promised to let him witness it all with his own eyes one day. Since then, Oliver couldn’t get the imagination out of his mind.
During the days they spent together, Altair had never told Oliver about his true identity and the Omega didn’t ask about it either. Somehow, Oliver got the impression that Altair knew he was aware of the fact, judging from how the Alpha could easily talk about his Eagle Alpha Father and Antelope Omega Father who only had each other for life because Eagles were monogamous animals. And as far as Oliver knew, the only Eagle-Antelope pair in the whole world was only the Emperor and Empress of Versatine Kingdom.
