Chereads / What Fate Has Brought / Chapter 6 - The Hunt Begins

Chapter 6 - The Hunt Begins

The funny thing about fate. It really waits for no one. It has a one-track mind and continues on its path ignoring destruction it may cause. I was never one to believe in fate or destiny. My choices made my path. That was until the events that started a few weeks after I got home from my visit.

"Boss, this was sent to your office directly. No return address." Gekka was waving a large brown envelope in my face. "This has to be the informant giving us what he promised to deliver."

"Are you just going to fling it around or open it?" My body was on edge the last few days and I knew I would be having to take a few days off for my rut starting today. "I am in no mood for games."

"You're no fun boss. Besides, it is a federal offence opening other people's mail. You want me to go to jail?" His fake shock had me growl. "Okay! Opening! You should start taking a few days off before your rut you know. Why let me have to deal with your anger beforehand?" He pulled out a single magazine.

"As soon as we are done here, I'm taking my time off. And would look at that, not what we expected. Is it another dirty omega magazine from the other group we are after?" He gave no reply and looked at the thing in his hands; all colour leaving his face. His reaction had me wonder what would shock my friend to this degree.

"Boss, the sale coming up is bigger than we expected. This is a sales flyer. You know, like they do for huge antique auctions or those fancy racehorses."

Without a second thought I grabbed the flyer from his hands. After flipping through the few pages, I came to one conclusion. This sale was focused on one male omega, with the others being available for the ones that fail his purchase. The pictures showed an omega in several different shots with different outfits and scenery. Not once was he looking at the camera but behind it or away from it. That meant he was making those expressions over something happening out of the cameras view. One picture that held me captivated was the last one. It was obviously taken from a phone, and had been photo shopped to look brighter, but the innocence in the scene captivated me. In the corner of a cage asleep was the same omega, curled up on himself. No bed or blanket. Just a small brown teddy bear in his arms.

"Gekka. How could this one go missing and no one report it?" I tossed the flyer back at him not even bothering to read it. "Male omegas are more than rare; they are almost unheard of."

"Look it has a small detail sheet for him." He went quiet while he read. "Boss, this guy might never have been stolen like our others." 

"What makes you think that?" He gave me the flyer and pointed to the information section I skipped over.

Name: None – Ready for your own to train

Age: 21

Gender Type: Dominate Omega - MALE

Bloodlines: Unknown

Heat Cycle: None Yet 

Fertility: Confirmed by doctors can produce – needs heat cycle to take

Training: None – He has been left pure for all training tastes – currently wears collars and chains without a fight - will follow on leash

Notes: Has been in our care since a pup and has medical documentation of pure status. Has been known to refuse orders and stand his ground, but with the correct motivation he will submit quickly. All methods known for him will be added to sales contracts. Could be big money earner with online live feeds even before proper training due to his rarity.

"This is disgusting. They are getting bold if they feel they can create a flyer. What makes this worse is it's an omega that has never known freedom from the looks of it." Standing up to leave I kept the flyer in hand to take home and investigate it from there.

Gekka immediately followed. "I can tell they used natural lighting, but the backgrounds do not match. We can't track them that way. The flyer also has nothing but the date for the sale in about two months' time. No location or website. For all we know that poor thing is in another country. I can see at least thirty other omegas on the list. All female, so like you stated, this guy is the focus." He leaned in a whispered. "This omega is so rare they chanced a huge sale for him. The auction will be worldwide, but you can bet the ones who have enough money to buy will be there in person to pick him up. If we can get the location, it would be our biggest bust yet."

"I'm taking four days off starting now. Email me if you get more information and I will do the same." We had already arrived in the carport walking towards my own car. "I'll do what I can from my place the next few days, but my gut tells me they are closer than we think, and that this sale would have happened right under our noses if not for our inside information."

"Yeah, I think the same. Don't work too hard during your rut. Have you found a helper this round?" Gekka was concerned as always, but it did not stop me from glaring daggers at him. "Don't give me that look. It is easier for you to have at least a Beta to ease symptoms."

"Get off my back Gekka." I watched him shake his head. "If I focus on locating the sale, it won't affect me."

"I pray you find yourself a mate soon. Yet, I pity that mate as well with how pent up you will be." He jumped away when I went to smack him.

"You are almost as bad as my mother." Slamming my car door, I left him in the car port laughing.

At home I did as I always have done with my ruts. All staff were sent home earlier, and the fridge supplied with easy snacks. I had already gathered a few snacks while I sat on my laptop trying to figure out more information on the male omegas. If…no…when our task was successful in rescuing him, we needed to know how to care for him. The problem was, there really was no information on them, even less on dominant ones.

The best site I found and added to favourites, I started to read again. There were no pictures due to the rarity of them but had lots of good information. My last day off I went back to that very site to see if I could see anything else.

Omegas and Types – Who they are and how to care for them.

Male Omegas

Submissive: The male submissive type is one of the easiest to take care of. Their personalities can be compared to that of young puppies. They have a lot of energy and most of it is trying to please the people around them. With their big eyes and personalities, they are general spoiled. They do well in environments surrounded by many people but do not do well alone. These types tend to be the first ones claimed once found by an Alpha. 

During their heats; which will happen regularly; unless they are claimed it will be with any Alpha willing to be there for them. Not unlike their female counter parts, the submissive Omega has no troubles becoming pregnant, in or out of heat. Precaution should be used with every encounter.

Dominant: These types are very rare. Only about three have ever been recorded. They are not as different from the submissive type when it comes to energy levels, however, they are not the type to try and please others. They do better in smaller groups around those they trust. Not completely a loner type. If they are secluded for any amount of time, they can become disassociated from socialization.

When it comes to the heat cycle of the dominant male Omega it has been recorded by the one known of unmarked, that it is nothing like that of a submissive. They only go into heat around an Alpha that has the right pheromones. It was recorded that the dominant omega can also become pregnant only with the one that marks them. However, from what has been documented before the study, use caution marking them. If the omega has not gone into heat with your pheromones, it is likely they will reject that marking and die.

The site did not have much more, and it concerned me that the male omega for sale will likely die if marked. The chance of finding a mate that is compatible with your pheromones is more than slim. Gekka has been trying, and he still thinks most do not smell right to him. Chuckling I think back to his last attempt and how he stated they smelled like a rubber factory to him. 

Leaning back into my couch I looked back at the flyer. The picture of him sleeping still drew me in. The bear he held looked new and it made me wonder if they were selling him before he shut down completely like what was suggested in my reading or was it because they were tired of waiting for his heat? Maybe I should try and contact the local omega doctor listed from that site.

Of course, the first person I call was Gekka. "Hey. I have been doing a little research and this omega is more than just rare. Males of his type have been documented less than a handful of times."

"No hello? How are ya? Just down to business. What if I was with someone boss?" Gekka tried to tease, and I stayed quiet. "Never mind then. I assume you're done your rut and ready to find out about the sale?"

"Yeah. I plan to contact a local Omega doctor from a site I investigated. A doctor Heil Frenson who specializes in studying omegas and had a few things about males." I looked back at the flyer in my hand. "He might be able to help us when we obtain the male omega in the sale."

"You are really set on catching them this round. Is it the fact we failed that last bust or are you curious on the merchandise?" Gekka chuckled.

"Of course, I'm furious on the last take down. I don't like to fail. Who they sell make no difference, but I did learn that male omegas have different care than we have supplied to the females. This doctor could set us up with the right facilities." Sitting forward I looked back at the website.

"Just a gut instinct, but make it seem like you are about to acquire one personally. Use what you can from the pictures to describe them." Gekka went quiet for a little. "If it is local, they should have a local doctor, right?"

Humming in thought, I turned my gaze back to his picture. "Yeah, I will do just that. I can sound like the rich Alpha on a hunt if needed."

He chuckled on the other end. "Just don't let your out inexperience through. Then again, that might work too."

"Let me call him up and see what we can find out. There are several black-market people that call themselves doctors as you know. This guy might not have a clue."

"Yeah, okay boss. Will I see you in the office tomorrow?"

"I'll be there. Later." Hanging up the phone I grabbed a drink of water before proceeding to my next call.
