She balanced her legs restlessly. She played with her fingers. Hell, she even wanted to nibble on her nails, she was getting so nervous at the screaming on the other side of the door. Her sisters were with her, sitting next to her. The eldest, Lee, had her hand on her shoulder, while the youngest, May, gazed anguishly at the door. In a way, they were supporting her, even though they didn't know how to respond to the situation either.
"Everything will be ok. Keep a cool head."
Her parents were inside that blessed office. They could hear their mother's claims, "It's a mistake, it must be a mistake," along with explanations from the family's clinic.
The lineage of the Kanker family was one of the purest and strongest, for that they owned the city. This lineage consisted of Alpha children, fewer Betas, and that included those married to the family. It was just natural.
Marie and her sisters had that belief from an early age, acting haughtily and arrogant in front of other children at school, demonstrating superior strength that dominated others. They were unstoppable, and they were proud of it. But boy, did fate make a bad move on her.
Upon entering the age of 15, the year of her presentation as part of one of the castes had also arrived, in her case, as Alpha or Beta. Lee had had it the year before, having satisfactory results knowing she was an Alpha. Now it was Marie and May's turn. It was no surprise that the latter turned out to be a Beta, she was strong, yes, but she had no Alpha material. It was a different story with Marie; she was strong, brave, impulsive, and liked to do things her own way. She always thought she would be an Alpha, but the results she got were not what she expected.
"Please, we've already run the test twice, the result is the same: There can't be an error."
"In my family there are only Alphas and Betas!"
"Understand this; it can't just come from one side of the family. There are a lot of possibilities!"
"Are you saying it's my fault?"
The three adults left the office, finding the three teenagers waiting outside. The doctor just walked up to Marie, gently patting her blue-haired head and handing her her test result sheet.
"The medical tests are not wrong. Marie is what she is. You cannot deny it. Nobody is to blame here; everything is a matter of possibilities."
She noticed the look that could be described as disappointment from her parents, so she lowered her head in pity, clenching her fists, and biting her lip to contain the urge to cry.
She felt really bad, like the family's mistake; a disappointment, a mockery of her name. She wasn't an Alpha like she's always wanted, not even an intermediate Beta. She's but an inferior and insignificant Omega.
