Mrs Wintringham prepared for a grand wedding for her son and his fiancé. Anastasia and Edmond went on to have a very happy marriage. Anastasia had her own happily ever after with her love Edmond.
The end'
Bridgette
Are you kidding me?! That is the ending?! ****!
The phone went flying across the bed and landed with a dull thud.
Bridgette
I paid fucking 100 dollars for all those chapters for this?! **** YOU AUTHOR!
Fury bubbling in her veins, Bridgette tried to calm herself. Taking in deep breaths she reached for her phone and made sure she hadn't cracked it. She wasn't about to let her anger get the best of her, even though she did want to reach at the author through her screen to strangle them. A reader's rage was terrifying.
Bridgette
Shit! It's already 12.30pm I need to get to college tomorrow. I better sleep now and get over the anger.
Pulling the blanket over herself she slipped into a dreamless sleep.
Bridgette dragged herself up and staggered her way to the bathroom to freshen up. Eyes heavy with sleep she brushed her teeth. Sleep made her tamer, not yet fully ready to unleash the full capacity of her attitude. Bridgette dragged herself towards the coffee machine. One good shot of espresso always got her ready for the day to deal with all sorts of drama and nonsense. They didn't call her Sass queen Bridgette simply.
Bridgette
As mother always says 'Start the day with a good cup of coffee'.
Boarding the earliest bus, Bridgette went of to college. On the bus she sat and texted her best friend, Sophia. She knew Sophia was the only one able to handle her attitude and personality. She would be the only one who would patiently listen to Bridgette rant for hours and probably also share the same sentiments with her. She checked for new updates on the novel, but it seemed like the author was dead set on making that stupid ending the true ending.
Sophia
Bridgette!! Good morning darling!
Bridgette
Good morning Sophia.
Sophia
You look like you're ready to pop a vein any minute now. I'm guessing the book had you in a choke hold after all. How was it?
Bridgette
Don't even get me started. Anastasia somehow still manages to end up with Edmond even though he is that biggest walking red flag I have ever fucking seen.
Sophia
Ah yes, She does have a tendency to ignore all read flags, or maybe it's her rose-tinted glasses that always tamper with her reasoning lol. Ignorance is bliss they say often times.
Bridgette
It isn't ignorance any more Sophia. It's pure foolishness!
Sophia
I know this is going to irk you even more but "Not My Alpha" is getting a live action.
Bridgette
What why?! Why did they think we deserved this?
Sophia
Because the fans of this novel are very vocal about their love for it. It's like Twilight all over again, gives me shivers just thinking about it.
Sophia
We got a whole movie series of Twilight. And if we are unlucky enough then we will get a whole series of this too! Anyway, I have lecture with professor Stokes. She'll have my head if I'm late. I'll see you at lunch, and then we can talk about our trip we planned. Remember?
Bridgette
Yeah, I do. I'll see in lunch then.
This whole Conversation was because of a mainstream trash novel called "Not My Alpha". Like any of those trashy novels you'll find on literally every nook and cranny of the internet, this was one of them too. The difference? This book got the recognition it didn't deserve. It got so mainstream that it's now getting its own T.V series or movies, whichever they are unlucky enough to have.
Bridgette
*Bridgette enters the class and sits down to attend the lecture.*
The main character was Anastasia Conner. She was an Omega. Yeah! This was an omega-verse. Not that Omega-Verse is bad, but it sometimes can be a dumpster fire. She was born and brought up in an abusive household with her abusive Alpha mother and helpless Alpha father. After her father's death, Anastasia vowed to never fall for an Alpha. Fast-forward to her first year of college, She bumped into the bad boy of the academy.
Bridgette
'Why did Anastasia even fall for Edmond? He was a walking red flag! Christopher was better than him!'
She bumped into Edmond Wintringham, the hottest alpha and biggest playboy of the academy. Soon we meet Tiffany Quinn the classic Villainess of any romance novel. Then we get introduced to the second male who always fades into the background Christopher Patton. Then comes Edmond's best friend Raphael Barre who is also a playboy and supposedly in love with Anastasia's best friend Tracy.
Bridgette
'They played Christopher and Tiffany dirty!'
Raphael gives Edmond a bet to make Anastasia fall in love with him because she's so quirky as she didn't react to Edmond's (cringy) flirting. This bet was worth a million dollars. Yeah, they had money to waste so what? Soon Edmond falls in love with Anastasia, but Daisy who was Tiffany's sidekick hears about the bet and tells Tiffany. Tiffany tells Anastasia about it who for some reason has a heartbreak over it.
Bridgette
'It would have been better if Tiffany ended up with Anastasia.'
Add some dumb misunderstandings, jealousy, possessiveness, stalker behavior and Voilà! That's "Not My Alpha" in a nutshell. And that's only the first volume! There are 3 volumes in total!
Bridgette
'Honestly? I feel like this story was pure fan service. The author saw what made quick money and decided to type it down. But hats off to the author for being able to make it to the top with their 'hormonal teenage' writing style. Not everyone can make a living out of cringy writing.'
Sophia
I officially hate Stokes. She's on my Christmas hit list. But let's not talk about all that depressing stuff! Let's talk about our trip!
Sophia
I'm so excited! I can't wait to get to Hawaii! Also, I just hope that I don't get flight sickness. Remember the last time I puked on the person next to me? I sure to hope that doesn't happen again. I'll die of shame then. 🥲
Bridgette
You can always take anti nausea pills before the flight. Anyway I made a small list of what we will be doing once we reach Hawaii. Take a look.
Bridgette hands a small notepad to Sophia. As Sophia's eyes glide over the pages her face gradually brightens up and her eyes sparkle brighter than the sun with joy.
Sophia
OMG Briiiiiii!! This is perfect! You knew I can't plan for the life of mine, so you did it?? OMG what would I do without you?
Bridgette
Sitting in professor Stoke's remedial classes I assume.
Sophia
OMG yeah ewwww. I wouldn't be alive if I had to attend her classes. But anyway I'm so excited to got with you bestie!!
The next two weeks were uneventful as always. Attending the lectures were boring and the excitement for the vacation made Bridgette restless. Soon they were boarding the flights for Hawaii. Throughout the flight Bridgette noticed that her right eye was twitching. In her mother's culture, if one's right eye twitched then it was a bad premonition.
Bridgette
'I have a bad feeling about this. I guess I'm overthinking this again.'
Hawaii was a delightful place. The excitement bubbling away in Bridgette's veins tamped down all her bad gut feelings she was getting on the flight here. She forgot about it all and just focused on having the time of her life with Sophia.
Sophia
Bridgette let's go surfing now! The lifeguard said that the waves at this time of the month are the biggest!!
Bridgette
Let's go then! I love myself a good challenge!!
As the last day of vacation came, the excitement had boiled down as well. The reality of going back to the same old routine settled in. And the bad premonition was starting to make way too.
Sophia
Let's watch the firework show Bridgette! We will be leaving tomorrow so let's go! We can stop by the market before the show starts too!
Bridgette
Alright let's do that and also let's get some kind of trinket to remember the trip!
Looking around the market, Sophia's eyes caught a glimpse of something shiny. Over to the stall opened by a young man, she saw two hanging drop necklaces.
Sophia
OMG! Bridgette look at these best friend necklaces! We need to get them! They're the perfect things to remember this trip with!
Bridgette
You're right let's get them then!
Sophia
Excuse me sir how much for these necklaces?
The young man looked at the necklaces Sophia was pointing at and almost immediately his expression faltered.
Shopkeeper
That's on the house.
Sophia
Really! Then please pack them up!
Shopkeeper
Alright I guess..... Be careful though. There is a nasty rumor about those darned necklaces. They say it connects parallel universes. I don't know if it's true or not, but I'm a very superstitious person, so I hope you don't get in trouble.
Sophia
Please wrap them up.
The shopkeeper wraps up the necklaces and hands them to Sophia.
As they walk to the fireworks show, Sophia puts the necklace around Bridgette's neck.
Sophia
You look beautiful with this on Bridgette. You might get a beautiful girlfriend. Just don't forget me ok.
Bridgette
Stop saying nonsense. I'll never forget you. Bros before hoes.
The fireworks were truly magnificent. They rushed into the sky and burst into dazzling colors. They painted the sky with beautiful flowers, some blue or pink. But the most beautiful ones were the golden ones as they burst and made a golden waterfall in the sky. They illuminated the rather dark and cloudless sky.
Sophia
That was amazing. Hukkk...
Sophia
I need to puke Bri.
Bridgette
Alright! Uh...let's go towards the bush!
Running towards the bush, Sophia emptied her stomach out.
Sophia
Ahhhh! relief! Bridg.....
Erie silence was the only respone Bridgette had got.
Bridgette
Sophia?? Answer me please.
Bridgette walked behind the bush to find noone there. Cautiously she took another step but her foot didn't hit the ground. Bridgette slipped and fell into what looked like an endless hole.
Episode 2
People occasionally look back on their lives and regret not listening to their instincts. After everything is said and done, one regrets not acting on their gut instincts.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
I knew I should have trusted my instincts. Maybe then I wouldn't be stuck here! Aghh!
Bridgette was in a state of rage and agony at the moment. She slammed her balled fists into the mirror, but the person who looked back was the Protagonist of "Not My Alpha," Anastasia.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Why the **** did this have to happen to me?
Anastasia(Bridgette)
When was it? Was it the moment I decided to trash the author? Or was it the moment I had gone to Hawaii? Or maybe it was because of this damn necklace!
Bridgette grabbed the necklace and yanked it with all her might, but it wouldn't budge. She took a pair of cutters from the tool cabinet and attempted to gut the chain, but the cutters were bent, and the chain was still intact with no dent.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
I give up. I just can't seem to get rid of this necklace. Perhaps I should've listened to the shopkeeper. Poor Sophia, I wonder what might have happened to her.
Bridgette huddled on her bed and placed the bent cutters on the nightstand. She cupped her hands around her face and sighed into them. She was about to take a nap when she heard glass crashing on the floor and slurred yells.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Right I almost forgot about this nonsense. Ugh...
Bridgette peered through the door gap and saw her mother yelling and fighting with her father. Of course, her mother was always fighting and abusive for no apparent reason.
Mother
Why the **** did you even switch off the T.V?
Father
I'm asking you something and can you for God fucking sake not put the volume so high? Anastasia has sleeping issues because of you!
Mother
Well I don't care! Why don't you just put her in the hands of my sister? You loved her more than me didn't you!
Father
For the last time, I never loved your sister like that. This is the problem with you! You tend to assume everything before knowing anything. How are we to have a normal conversation if you fucking act like this all the time?
Mother
Alright since everything is my fault anyway then I'll just leave!
The door slammed shut with a loud bang, leaving only the sounds of sizzling in the kitchen and the ticking of the clock. Bridgette cautiously stepped outside and looked at Anastasia's father, who was almost visibly enraged. She knew he was kicking himself for marrying her because of his parents.
Father
Anastasia, baby you can come out now. She's gone. She won't hurt you for now.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Dad...... Don't be angry about her. You deserve so much better than that woman.
Father
........ You've grown up Anna. I'm sorry I couldn't give you a good family.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Does it matter? You gave all that you could and trust me that's more than enough. I guess I'm sad that we don't have a proper family, but I can't cry about that because... you have been the best father a girl could get.
Bridgette couldn't help but feel emotional when she heard this man in front of her say such things to her, whether it was because she missed her own father or because of Anastasia's own emotions. Anastasia's father had only served as a plot device in the novel, but she couldn't deny it any longer. He was just as alive as she was.
Father
Anastasia...... Whatever happens, just know that I will always love you. Whoever you choose to love, who you choose to be or what your second gender is I'll always support you. I just need you to remember that daddy is always here. Alright?
Anastasia(Bridgette)
I know that. I need you to know that I love you too.
Bending on his knees he hugged Bridgette. Bridgette found solace in the faint scent of cologne. The man reminded her of her father. Always ready to defend his daughter and always supportive in any situation.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Dad let's go out today. Forget about her and her antics. Let's have dinner in a classy restaurant and probably some ice cream later on.
Father
You're right let's go out! And yes let's have some ice cream. 3 scoops on chocolate cover cones.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Sounds like the perfect plan to me! 😊
Episode 3
Plot points. They are one of the most important things in a novel. Google describes them as "A moment in one's story that impacts the characters or the direction of the story in some way". In "Not My Alpha" there were a few important plot points in the very start of the story. One of them was the closet incident.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
'As I'm still like 15 years old I still have a good 4 years till college. That's when the story starts. But before that the closet incident.'
The closet incident was when Anastasia finally presented as an Omega. It was also the incident where she lost all trust in Alphas as a whole.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
'This all happened because of an obnoxious beta girl called Sarah. I'm forgetting the exact details but it should have something to do with her boyfriend.'
The door creaked open, and her father's head poked out through the opening. And yes, Bridgette now considered this man to be her father. Bridgette had developed a father-daughter relationship with the man in just a few months. It could have been her, or it could have been Anastasia's remaining emotions in the body Bridgette had stolen from her.
Father
Honey it's time for breakfast. I made your favorite!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
On my way dad. Just give a few minutes!
She scuttled down the stairs to the dining hall after tying her hair. The air in the dining hall was as cold as ice. The silence thick in the air, and Bridgette could feel it from the bottom of the stairs. She shrugged and dashed into the dining hall to hug her father.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Daddy!!
Father
There is my little angle!
Father
Did you sleep well last night? You didn't get nightmares, did you?
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Nope! I had the best sleep last night!
Mother
You're still alive, huh?
Anastasia(Bridgette)
........
Bridgette was aware of the wretched woman's presence in the dining hall but had chosen to ignore her. That was, until she heard her snide remark. Her tone was swamped with disgust and hostility, and her eyes looked at Bridgette as if she were an unwanted pest.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Guess you're still having that bad attitude.
Mother
You! Don't you dare talk back to me!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
I wasn't aware that answering a question was considered as talking back.
Mother
Good! Very good! Now she has the fucking guts to talk back to me! And it's all because you're spoiling her!
Father
No, it's not because I'm spoiling her. It's because I'm teaching her to stand up for herself. Somebody has to play the parent right? And if you're not ready for the job then I'm more than willing to do it for my daughter.
Mother
Good! Both of you are ganging up on me now! I'm going!
As the wretched woman left the house, the frigid and icy atmosphere gradually warmed up. Bridgette gave her father a beaming smile. He patted her head before presenting her with a platter of wonderful toast, eggs, pork and beans.
Father
You did well Anna. I'm proud of you!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Thanks daddy!
Bridgette had to stay at home alone when her father went to work because she was still on summer vacation. She sat in Anastasia's father's gorgeous attic, which he had decorated for her to use as a playroom. She messed around with her necklace. Scratching it with her fingernails to open it or attempting to retrieve the jewel in the center.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Is there noting I can do with this stupid necklace? Hmm? What's that? This gem..... Can I press this?
Anastasia(Bridgette)
What the...? Wait holy shit?!
The room was entirely bathed in a blinding glow. Bridgette quickly shut her eyes to avoid being blinded. She slowly opened her eyes to see what appeared to be a floating screen in front of her. It was clear and pale turquoise. A child-like robotic voice came from it when she thought it wasn't doing anything.
System 01225
Welcome dear host!!!! This humble system greets you!! I'm system 01225 which has the honor to accompany you through this story, so you can have a pleasant experience!!!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
What in the fucking world? What is this thing?!
System 01225
I'm getting some signals that you are confused. Well please ask any doubt and I will answer in the most simple, precise and understandable form possible!!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
I....uh....need a second....
System 01225
Sure as long as you need host!!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
'What is this floating computer screen? It called itself a system..... like systems from those transmigration stories?'
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Are you like one of those things from those transmigration stories?
System 01225
Yep!!! I am that system you're talking about! Albeit there are many other systems like me!!!
System 01225
It seems like it took me a little longer to activate, but thank you for pressing the button and opening me!! I'll help you in any way possible!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
OK so like what exactly are you?
System 01225
I am a system! It isn't really explainable, but I'm like a celestial being who can jump universes!
System 01225
Have you heard of the multi universe theory?
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Yeah......
System 01225
Well it exists!! All universes are interconnected. Every world is intertwined by something known as black threads! Every universe has one common thread that leads it back to the Supreme Universe!!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Supreme..... Universe?
System 01225
The universe you're from! Where Earth exists! Due to the big bang and the formation of you're universe, it became the catalyst to the formation of other universes! We celestial beings form the black threads to tie the universes to the Supreme universe!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Why do you need to do that? And how is this universe exactly like a book from earth?
System 01225
We create these books to keep sending energy to these worlds, so they can keep surviving. Some worlds have garnered so much energy they don't need the book counterparts to keep them alive! But this world is relatively new, so we still need the book.
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Why did you bring me here?
System 01225
The main character died due to mysterious reasons. If the main character dies the book will have no meaning and the world will end. Plus the moment you wore the necklace your energy was strong enough to be recognized as compatible with the world. In simple words, you are strong enough to save the world!!!!!!
Anastasia(Bridgette)
Save the world? This world?
Anastasia(Bridgette)
No way in hell.
System 01225
Great.... Wait what?
Anastasia(Bridgette)
I said I'm not saving this world.
