(in sering Julian, Beryl broke away from the count of students and approached him.
“What’s going on there?” þolian asked, studying the group around Lyra. His first worry had been that they were panping up against her, but the looks on their faces and Lara-
Beryl shook her head. “Hell no. 1 know how serious she is about the, and she would hate me it I did something like that. I’m kidding you not, she beat me Tala and squate. You can ask the teacher or everyone in here. I definitely wasn’t pulling my punches.”
“That’s impossible,” Julian said “She is just an Omega”
Peryd shrugged. “An Omega who has proven to be more than capable of keeping up with this bunch of elires from all over the kingdom. Don’t understimate her.”
Your Majesty,” the tracher who was in charge of the class, Frank, approaches the king, “It’s an honour to have you do a personal inspection of this class. We were just getting started.”
Ths it tive what I’m hearing about Miss Jenkins?* julun asked. “What is your assessment of her performance?”
“Miss Jenkins has surpassed my expectations,” Frank reported. “I thought I would have to make special considerations on account of her cank, but throughout my classes, she has shown that she is capable of competing with her classmates. The opponent for this test was Miss Beaver and despite the difference in their rank, Miss Jenkins came out the winner.
Julian’s eyes moved on to Lyra, who was watching him. As soon as their eyes met, she looked away and pretended to be absorbed with something rise. “That’s interesting,” he mumbled.
“It’s interesting indeed.” Beryl ageed. “Now that I think of it, maybe we don’t know the true strength of the gas since they have never been allowed to join training programs. Il Lyra’s case is anything to go by, I think many others like her could have untapped potential, Maybe it’s time we changed how things ran around here?
Julian lifted an eyebow at hn. “What are you supposting?”
“Lyra being able to deleat higher–ranked werewolves can be an encouragement for other Omegas to start training and build their strength,” she said any Omegas think they are incapable, and our laws have not helped prove otherwise. Would it not be a good thing if every Omega pot a chance to unearth their hidden potential? it would strengthen our packs and the kingdom in general.”
Thinking about it, Julian could agree that Beryl was right. As the lowest rank, nobody expected much from Omegas. They were not physically strong or powerful like other ranks, so they were excluded from ali important sectors in the kingdom
Omegas existed to serve others and were not allowed to pursue Omegas had gotten the opportunity to fit into other sectors.

Lyra joining the Royal Training Camp had been a fluke, but it was turning to be an eye opener. What it more Omegas joined such training programs? Could more of

you are right,” he told ery” cannot sit on such potential. He turned to the palace official who had followed him to the area. “Publish a royal decree requiring all packs to allow Omegas to join their training programs effective immediately.“.
À memur rose among the shocked students. Lyra could not believe her ears & royal decree was final and mandatory Any Alpha who disobeyed would face the wrath of the Lycan King himself, with a few words, Julian had changed such a huge part of Omegas‘ thed
“Yes, Your Majesty,” the palace official said, Jorting down on her tablet…
Julian’s–eyes found Lyra. This time, she did not look away. She was simply noo awed to be self conscious, “Also, I’m establishing a scholarship in Lyra Jenkind’s name to support Omegas who wish to pursue extensive training. Note that I’m also abolishing any and all laws that forbid Cunegas from attending schools everywhere in the kingdom h
“Yes, Your Majesty,” the official replied again
Lyra was not sure she was still breathing. A scholarship in her name? She never could have foreseen anything like that happening. But that was not what stole her breath, it was the thought of what such a scholarship would mean to her fellow Omegas. Most Omegas could not afford to attend school even if they were allowed. Such a scholarship would mean that povesty would not deny them the opportunity to study like others.
And abolishing the laws that kept Omegas from going to school. It all felt too good to be true. But fullian was the Lycan King, and had dected it. So, it would be, the really felt like she wan dreaming
Lyra blinked when Beryl appeared in front of her and took her hands. “Are you crying?” Bryland, a big smile on her face.
Lyra blinked again. “What?” She laughed. “Am 17” Maybe she was. She was so happy that she was having an out–of–body experience.
“WWII, it looks like you are about to,” Beryl said “Congratulations! You have changed history all by yourself.”
Lyra shook her head. “No, that was you. Thank you for suggesting that to the king. I can’t believe be agred”
“He did, and only because you proved that Omegas are capable of so much more than we ever imagined. You should be proud of yourself”
It was hard to imagine that she really was the reason for such a humongous change. She would be really grateful to Beryl. And to Julian. He clearly wasn’t as bad as he had come off in the beginning. U he really despised Omegas, he would never make such new laws in their favour.
“Yay!” Kanchentedelledly. “I told you, didn’t 171 sald you would change everything, and here you are doing it. Do you believe me now?n
For once, Lyta could not argue with Bar’s overthusian. This did feel like everything
There was a lot of prejudice and durimination spalnut Bregas, and that would not change overnight. In fact, the king’s new laws inight ing ease the animosity against them from other Tanks who thought Onegai did not deserve the same things as they did.
But despite all that. Eyra knew that the new laws could change everything. They were the first step in the right direction, and as time went by, they would hopefully become the norm
