So, with the upcoming Wonder Woman movie that will include Steve Trevor (HELL YES!) I decided to try my hand at an Alpha/Omega verse.
Now, I've never written in this verse before, but I see Diana as the Alpha and Steve as an Omega…. In modern times, of course, because the thought of Steve growing old without Diana hurts me.
And I really want to write the other Justice League characters in as well.
If you like it, let me know in a review :)
Thank you :)
…..
"This isn't fair Mother…" cried out Diana as she raced after the Queen, "… I will always lack the necessary experience unless given the opportunity."
The Queen frowned at her, "Diana, you may resent my decisions, but there are evils in this world that I, as a Mother, am compelled to protect you from."
"I am an Alpha and a woman now! I no longer need you to protect me!"
Before the Queen could reply, there was a soft voice from the doorway. "If the Princess will not be participating in the contest, perhaps she would like to join me on guard duty." The speaker was a soft-spoken beta…. One of Hippolyta's favourites to become Diana's mate.
Nodding in agreement, Hippolyta frowned at Diana. "It appears as though you will be busy."
As the Queen strode away, Diana turned to growl at the young beta, prompting the other female to take a small step back. "What?!"
Without answering, Diana stormed away, desperately needing to get away from everything…. And the bewitching scent of the Omega in the other room.
…..
Hours later, Diana (dressed in her guard armour) found herself moping during guard duty… until she spotted a familiar figure heading down the steps below her.
"Alexa…"
She addressed the young omega, a known bookworm,
"… are you covering Persephone's guard duty?"
"I'm covering yours…" Alexa smiled at Diana softly, "… now go. The contest will begin shortly."
Placing a gentle hand on Alexa's shoulders, Diana returned the smile. "I appreciate the gesture, but that's the last place my Mother would want to see my face."
"Then perhaps you should hide it…." Alexa tapped the side of Diana's helmet, "…. Under a combat helmet."
Diana beamed at this, throwing her arms around Alexa and kissing her on the cheek. "You are my Heart Sister…" she whispered into her ear, before racing off towards the contest arena.
The young omega smiled, turning to enter the jail. Persephone frowned at her entrance, "Where is the Princess?"
Alexa simply shrugged, moving to a nearby bench to begin reading.
Persephone scowled, "Why does she not understand that her Mother know what it best for her?!"
"The heart wants what the heart wants, even that which is worse for it."
"You cannot be serious!" Persephone growled, "The Princess cannot be falling for a man! Even an omega one!"
"Why not?"
"…. Her Mother has promised her hand to another."
….
Steve winced as his guard's hand tightened on his shoulder, pulling him up so that he could be seen by the 'contestants'
"This contest…." Began the Queen, "… which determine, who among you should be our emissary to the outside world. Fight with honour!"
Trumpets sounded and the contest began. As the Queen took a step back, Steve glanced over at her. "This reminds me of my history classes you know…."
Silence.
Undeterred, Steve continued. "…. You know. How contests would be held and alphas would compete against one another to have the honour of marrying an omega and- "
"There will be no marriage!" the Queen bellowed, taking deep breaths to calm herself down, "They are competing for the chance to get you off of the Island. Nothing more."
Suitably chastised, Steve fell quiet watching as one warrior excelled at the javelin throw… then archery… then chariot racing (which Steve greatly enjoyed). This was followed on by sword fighting.
Watching from his seat in between Artemis and the Queen, Steve turned to the red-head. "So…. The Queen's kid? The Alpha?"
"Princess Diana."
"Yeah… so what's her deal?"
"Her deal…." Artemis side-eyed her, "… is that I will personally castrate and de-womb you if you come within five yards of her. You shall not seduce her."
Steve winced at this, "Wow…. You guys really have a problem with males. Especially ones… like me."
Silence once again.
….
From her position just outside of the jail cell, Artemis smiled at the cheering and whooping that could be clearly heard.
"Maybe the arrival of this man will bring forth a new era for the Amazons." She stated as she headed back inside.
Persephone shook her head, "And perhaps it will only bring about a return to darker times."
"That's fear talking sister. There's a quote in which I find the courage to face the unknown. 'As a rock on the seashore, he standeth firm, and the dashing of the waves disturbeth him not. In the instant- AH!"
She stopped as a sword made its way through her heart from the back, slowly pushing forwards.
"Yes, I know the quote well….it has aided me much in recent days. Shall I finish it?" asked Persephone, wrenching the sword out of Alexa's back and quickly moving to catch her. "'In the instant of danger, the courage of his heart sustaineth him and the steadiness of his mind beareth him out."
Slowly, she lowered Alexa to the ground. "Forgive me."
She strode to the lone cell in the jail, "…. It's as you said. The heart wants what the heart wants..." She opened the cell, smirking as Alexa' eyes widened in fear (though weak as she was), "… even that which is worse for it."
An Alpha male slowly walked out, pulling Persephone into a kiss. "A centuries long courtship finally culminated in a kiss."
He strode over to the dying Alexa and knelt by her, placing his hand over her mouth and nose to suffocate her. "I find my joys only tempered by the fact that Diana still lives. Still… our distraction has worked."
…..
Back in the contest arena, the last two competitors were being given silver bracelets, standing a few yards away from two archers.
"We have a tie which must be broken…" explained Artemis to Steve, "… she who is left standing after this final event, shall be the victor."
"Left standing?"
The archers drew back the string and fired a single arrow at the two opposite them. When they were deflected using the bracelets, two more archers stepped and two arrows per warrior were fired.
They were deflected again.
This time, there were three arrows aimed at each warrior, causing Steve to lean forwards in amazement.
This time, there was only one warrior left standing as she deflected all three arrows.
Queen Hippolyta stood up (along with Steve with a bit of encouragement by Artemis), beckoning for the winner to stride up the stairs to the main podium. "You have fought with honour and intelligence…." She began, "… the Gods go with you with the gifts I am about to bestow. As is the custom, our emissary will don the colours of the foreign nation, as a sign of respect and peace."
Ignoring Artemis's tightening grip, Steve glanced at the flag on the left arm of his uniform and grinned.
The Queen gestured to another cushion, "Amazon bracelets. Formed with shards of Zeus's shield, by Hephaestus himself." She then removed the Lasso from her side, "And finally, the Lasso of Truth, bequeathed to us by the Goddess Hestia, sent here by arrow from Mount Olympus…. Now reveal yourself warrior, so that we may fully honour you."
Slowly, the winner removed her helmet and got to her feet, only to reveal Princess Diana. There was silence for a few moments, before the Queen removed her tiara and placed it on Diana's head. "I have no doubt that you shall serve us well… my daughter."
Before Diana could reply, another Amazon came up to Artemis and whispered in her ear.
….
Everyone raced down to jail where Ares was kept, bursting into the building only to find Alexa dead on the ground. Diana raced forwards and fell to her knees by the body, a low mourning sound escaping as she mourned the death of her heart sister.
"Ares has escaped…." Muttered Artemis, "… my sister has failed in her duties to the Amazon."
As an Alpha female, Artemis had always felt protective of Alexa, who was her younger sibling. However, as they grew, they pair grew apart, with Artemis jumping into warrior training eagerly and Alexa preferring to read her days away.
"It is Persephone who has failed us…." Corrected the Queen, "… it seems daughter, that your journey will have a second purpose."
….
A couple of hours later, Steve waited in a courtyard, his guards still close by as a plane landed nearby ('an invisible plane' noted Steve in glee). At the top of the steps that led down into the courtyard, Diana arrived, dressed in the uniform that had been presented to her.
As she strode down the steps, Steve couldn't help but stare. The Alpha Princess was beautiful, her raven-black locks flowing in the wind, and her dark blue eyes twinkling with mischief. The uniform accentuated every curve of her body, and despite the damage he knew that she could do, this did nothing to dissuade his interest
"Wow…." He gasped, wincing when the guards and the Queen all tuned to glare at him.
Diana however, ignored him and smiled at her Mother. "I am ready Mother."
"Then go now. Follow the path of misery, of death and destruction and you will find Ares. May Gaia go with you. All of Themyscira, all of the world is depending on you."
Without another word, Diana took a hold of Steve and tugged him towards the Invisible Jet, encouraging him to enter the aircraft before they took off.
Down on the ground, Artemis scowled. "We should not have let her go."
"I don't see how we could have stopped her."
"…. I could have shot her in the leg. Not near a major artery of course."
"You are the soul of thoughtfulness Artemis..." The Queen chuckled
…
As the Jet shot through the night sky, the night-time lights of New York clearly visible in the distance, Steve leaned forwards in his seat.
"Welcome to New York Angel. I think you're going to like it."
