Chapter 1
The Kirkland estate was a vast expanse of wealth and beauty, with lush emerald land stretching for acres on all sides surrounding the large mansion in the centre. The mansion itself stood proud and aged, having seen many generations of pure, thoroughbred Kirkland alphas. The current owner of the estate was one Arthur Kirkland, a strong, dignified alpha with all the reputation of his ancestors to uphold, and uphold it he did.
The Kirkland name was well-known throughout all of England, and a few European countries were also aware of Arthur's firm and ruthless business approach. The alpha would always get what he wanted, much to the distress of any pretty young omega Arthur would come across. The Kirklands had always thrived on their business of buying and selling omegas, who had become rarer compared to centuries ago, due to recessive omega genes and dominant alpha genes.
Arthur had upheld the family business and currently owned four omegas, all in their own chambers located in each wing of the mansion, kept separated from each other at all times. Each chamber had a small bedroom and an adjoining lounge for menial omega activities such as embroidery and painting, which doubled as a nursery for any alpha pups the omega may birth, as well as a small bathroom where omegas would make themselves nice and clean ready for their heat. Each chamber also had its own heat room, where omegas would spend the four-day duration of their heat. The room was soundproof and secure, meaning no one could easily break in as it was locked from the inside, and when one of Arthur's omegas went into heat, Arthur would spend the four days with them, mating to give the best chance of the omega conceiving. After the four-day period, the omega would be left alone while Arthur attended his other omegas in heat. It was a cycle, no two omegas were in heat at the same time as they were kept far apart, and to keep them on schedule, the pheromones of an omega in heat would be secreted to trigger the omega's own heat, to ensure the cycle remained consistent. This cycle was the routine of the omegas' lives until they could no longer bear pups, and then they would be taken to a Home for Dysfunctional Omegas, where Arthur would trade them for a new, younger omega to replace them.
Arthur never allowed himself to become emotionally involved when breeding with the omegas, as they were the tools of the business, nothing more. As far as the production line went, the pups would be raised by the omega and a designated beta nanny until they reached the age of four, which was when it would be apparent by their blossoming individual scents and mannerisms whether they were alpha, beta or omega. The betas would be sent to an orphanage, as the household had no use for them, and betas typically ended up as caregivers for omega pups as they were not affected by their scents as alphas were. The alpha pups would be raised by Arthur and the omega mother or father, using Arthur as their role model, and they would grow into strong, educated alpha pups. The omega pups, however, would be segregated immediately and raised by professional nannies to ensure that they were safe, protected and raised properly. The omega parent was only allowed to see their omega pups one afternoon a week, and if they were disobedient for any reason, that privilege would be taken away.
Once the pups reached ten years old, the Kirkland mansion would be the location of a special auction, by invitation only, where the heads of the most prestigious families would come and view the omegas Arthur had raised, and the highest bidder would sign the relevant contracts, gaining ownership of the omega pup. They would not be mated at ten years old, but certain families preferred to raise the omegas to their specific requirements, so they still had time to raise the omegas to their liking before they were mated. Omegas were incredibly expensive, but the Kirkland omegas were said to be the highest quality omegas because of their upbringing, so the Head alphas were more than prepared to pay the price.

Arthur Kirkland returned to his mansion after a long day of negotiating for the latest auction, which was set to go ahead in two weeks' time. He hated conversing with stubborn alphas who were only motivated by the thought of a tantalising young omega for their own pups to mate with. They always demanded the best, and they gave Arthur a list of requirements he had to make sure the young omegas met before the Head alphas committed to their purchase.
"Mr Kirkland, sir, welcome home." The Kirkland butler was a beta, and he had been with the Kirkland family since Arthur's father had been the Head alpha.
"How is Number Two doing?" Arthur asked directly, as he always referred to his omegas as One, Two, Three and Four; he did not bother with their names as it would be a step closer to getting attached. He knew his second omega was close to giving birth, and he was eager for it because when an omega was pregnant they were, in effect, out of action, so to speak. He would give her perhaps a week or so before inducing her heat again, he would waste no time.
"She has not been well, sir. We fear the pups may be lost if we do not induce the labour." The butler informed him, taking Arthur's hat and coat.
"Very well, tell the doctor to do whatever he can to save the pups. Even if it means losing the mother." Arthur sighed in frustration. Number Two had always been rather weak, and Arthur had only chosen her because she was a pretty thing, but he hated the hassle of searching for a new omega. It cost time and money; two things Arthur did not part with easily.
"I'll be in my study. Please inform me when the pups are born." Arthur instructed, heading down the corridor.
"Of course, sir." The butler inclined his head respectfully in acknowledgement, going to inform the doctor of Arthur's decision.
Arthur was never present for the birth of his pups, mainly because it was not a good idea for alphas to be in the delivery room. This was because when in labour, an omega's scent was very powerful and any alphas in close proximity would be so distracted and aroused by the scent that they could severely disrupt the birthing process. There had been a few cases some decades ago where alphas attempted to mate their omegas during labour, causing serious problems for both the pups and the birthing omega. But a second reason for his absence was that Arthur did not want to view himself as a father to the pups, or a mate to the omega. Omegas were his property, and the pups were his trade, and he refused to be emotionally involved with the process.
The hours passed slowly, and Number Two's scent was beginning to spread through the mansion, which would upset his other omegas if they caught it. Just as Arthur left his study, he heard the cries of another omega, Number Three, who had become upset by the birthing scents of pain and distress from Number Two. Arthur let out a groan, fighting his primal instinct to approach Number Two's wing, and instead he made his way to Number Three. The alpha in him was now craving attention from an omega and the scent of distress from Number Three was hard to ignore.
He climbed the stairs up to Number Three's wing, panting softly as he inhaled the scent. He knocked on the door, unlocking it and entering, all at once completely shrouded in the scent. Number Three was a young male omega, who was very nervous and flighty, and when he first came to the mansion, Arthur had had to spend every night with him, holding him and secreting a calming alpha scent to soothe his omega. Now he did the same, secreting a calming scent which the young omega picked up on, and he let out a soft whine. He was curled up in his bed but now he reached up for Arthur, seeking the comfort the alpha was offering.
"Don't be distressed, pet." Arthur murmured, an underlying growl in his voice as he approached the omega, climbing over him and inhaling the omega's sweet scent. The omega clung to him, letting Arthur enter him with no objection as he was seeking comfort, and Number Three let out a soft whine, nuzzling Arthur's neck and taking comfort in the alpha's strong scent, which was stronger now he was aroused. Arthur moved fast and hard, panting and groaning, feeling spurred on by the omega's mewls and whines. The omega's scent gradually lost its distress as they mated, successfully calming down until he gasped and tensed. Arthur swelled inside him and kept thrusting until he could no longer move, knotting inside the omega as he climaxed. The omega moaned and mewled in pain, as mating outside of heats was more painful due to the absence of self-lubrication, or slick.
It was a few moments before Arthur could move, but when was able to he pulled out, deciding to stay with the omega for the rest of the night. It was something he rarely did but he did not want to lose two omegas this night. He laid on the bed, and the omega nestled against his chest, inhaling his scent and he fell asleep quickly. Arthur stayed awake, wondering whether Number Two was going to survive the night.

It was around four in the morning when someone knocked on the door of Number Three's chambers, and Arthur let out a growl at first, as he had been dozing. Number three was awake next to him, staring at the door but the omega knew the knock was not for him, but for Arthur. The alpha sighed and made sure he was presentable, before going to the door and opening it.
"What is it?" Arthur growled, his voice gruff and his emerald eyes interrogative.
The doctor was stood there, looking solemn. "It is my deepest regret to inform you of your omega's passing, sir."
"What about the pups?" Arthur asked without missing a beat, keeping his priorities intact.
The doctor hesitated. "The pups…died with their omega mother, sir."
Arthur sighed and closed his eyes, his scent changing so much that Number Three quivered in his bed. The alpha growled and slammed his fist against the wall, denting the wallpaper as his scent was aggressive. The omega whimpered, and the doctor remained calm.
"For God's sake!" Arthur growled, bearing his canines in aggression, before taking a few breaths and closing his eyes, slowly regaining his composure and he cleared his throat, returning his gaze to the doctor. "My apologies, doctor. Thank you for doing what you could."
The doctor nodded. "She was a weak one, sir. I believe the pups were dead before she went into labour."
Arthur waved him away. "The details no longer matter. You may retire, doctor. Have a good night." He said cordially, watching as the doctor bid goodbye and retreated down the corridor.
The alpha sighed, leaving Number Three's chambers and locking the door behind him, making arrangements for the bodies to be disposed of, as no omega was buried in the grounds. He also gave instructions to the servants for the room to be completely cleaned and for the scent items to be placed in the room ready for the new omega whom Arthur would pick out in the morning. The scent items were blankets, pillows and a few cuddly toys that were drenched in Arthur's scent, designed to introduce the omega to their alpha's scent and to comfort them if they were anxious in their new chambers.
Arthur then retreated to his own quarters, getting ready to go to the Home for Dysfunctional Omegas to choose his new omega mate. The disappointment of losing an omega was irritating, but Arthur intended to replace her with a prettier, stronger omega who would be able to survive labour.
A/N: Helllooooooo everybody~ It is I, the notorious writer who never updates! (I'm sorry).
In truth, I have been very busy sorting out a load of stuff and when I have the time I don't have any inspiration to write. So when I do write something, OF COURSE it is a new story and not an update on stories I have already started. (I'm sorry again).
But aaaaanywaaaaay this is my first time writing something for Omegaverse, but I do love it~ Please let me know what you thought of this first chapter, in particular what do you think of Arthur's alpha character?
Don't worry, he does have feelings I promise!
Please review and give me your honest opinions, because thi is a new thing and I want to know how I did!
Love you all even if I don't update regularly. (I'm super duper sorry!).
