Part 2…

Wade sits frozen behind the wheel, both hands gripping the edge of the seat. His clothes feel wrong against his skin, like they belong to someone else. The plastic ID lies face up in his lap, the government seals bright beneath the sterile lights of the garage. He stares at his classification card until the letters blur. Beta-S. Not Alpha. His breath catches. 

A small sound escapes him first, something weak and ugly that he would have been ashamed to hear from anyone else. He clamps a hand over his mouth, but it does nothing. The sob comes anyway. Then another. Then his whole body folds forward as if something inside him has finally snapped. He presses his forehead against the steering wheel.

“No,” he whispers.

It is not a protest. Not really. It is a prayer. No, because his mother is waiting at home with that soft, hopeful smile that her son is packing a minimum 8-inch cock like his father and brother, not a pathetic babydick. No, because his father has probably already told the supermarket staff that his son will be joining him soon. Wade squeezes his eyes shut. He has his father’s name. His father’s smile. His father’s broad hands. His father’s way of laughing too loudly when he wants everyone in the room to know he is not afraid.

He doesn’t have his father’s package; he is way smaller. His stomach twists so hard he almost gags. He looks down at himself, at the body he has lived in his whole life without ever thinking it could betray him completely. The body that had always been ordinary to him. Soft in places, yes. Not heroic. Not statuesque. But his.

The passenger door opened.

Wade jerked upright, wiping at his face too late.

A woman slid into the seat beside him as if the car belonged to her. She closed the door softly, adjusted the cuff of her black coat, and looked straight ahead through the windshield. She looked too composed for the parking garage, too clean for the exhaust-heavy air, too calm to be sitting beside a stranger who had been crying into his steering wheel.

Wade stared at her, panic flaring again. For a second, he thought about screaming, about reaching for the handle, about running back into the garage and pretending none of this was happening.

“Get out,” Wade managed.

“Shh“

His hand went to the door handle.

“If you open that door,” she said, “the camera above the payment machine will register panic movement, and the guard at the exit will ask why a Beta-S candidate is leaving in distress.”

Wade froze.

Her voice was quiet, cold enough to stop him anyway.

She was impossible to place in age—maybe thirty, maybe forty. Dark hair pinned neatly at the back of her neck, not a strand loose. A long gray coat despite the heat outside. Leather gloves—no jewelry except a thin silver ring on her thumb.

Everything about her looked expensive, controlled, deliberate.

She didn’t look at him when she spoke.

“Wade Harper. Twenty-two years old. North district. Father owns three supermarkets. Mother volunteered for the Alpha Family Initiative for eleven consecutive years.” Her tone stayed flat, clinical. “One younger brother. One younger sister. Academic performance above average. Psychological profile: compliant.”

Wade’s mouth went dry.

“Who are you?”

“Someone who can make sure your father never sees that card.”

His fingers closed around the Beta-S ID in his lap.

She noticed. Of course, she noticed.

“Don’t bother hiding it from me,” she said. “I saw the result before you did.”

Shame hit him so violently that he almost turned away. She looked at him as she saw him in the examination, and saw his tiny penis and how small he is.

“Did you watch?”

For the first time, something like irritation crossed her face.

“No. I read numbers—people who enjoy watching work upstairs.

Silence filled the car.

Then she leaned slightly closer, voice low and perfectly steady.

“If you want your family to see you as an Alpha,” she said, “then you do exactly what we say.”

Wade was silent, didn’t know how to react.

The woman reached into the inside pocket of her coat and removed a slim black case. She opened it across her knee. Inside was a card.

Wade saw his own face first.

Then his name.

Then the classification.

ALPHA.

The whole car seemed to tilt beneath him.

“That’s fake,” he whispered.

“At the moment, yes.”

“At the moment?”

She checked the time on a narrow silver watch.

“In two minutes, the central register will agree with it.”

Wade stared at her, heart hammering so hard it hurt.

“Why?”

She didn’t answer him.

She opened the door. Before stepping out, she paused.

“You go home. You smile. You let them celebrate. You jerk your little penis and make it happy. Tomorrow morning, you will come when I call.”

“And if I don’t?” Wade responded.

She finally looked at him.

“Then you always live as a pathetic beta and everybody you know laughs at your shrimp between your legs, She says, closing the door calmly, leaving. 

Wade did not move for a long time.

The garage stayed quiet around him, except for the distant hum of lights and the occasional rush of tires somewhere below. He sat with both cards in his lap, staring down at them as if one of them might vanish if he waited long enough.

One card told the truth about his small penis.

BETA-S.

The other card promised survival.

ALPHA.

Same face. Same name. Same birth date.

Two different lives.

His fingers hovered over the Alpha card, but he did not touch it at first. It felt dangerous, like something stolen from a temple. A thing he was not meant to hold. A thing that would burn him if he believed in it too quickly.

Then his phone buzzed.

Wade flinched.

A government notification glowed on the screen.

NSDP CLASSIFICATION UPDATE COMPLETE.
WADE HARPER: ALPHA-VERIFIED.
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR SOCIAL ALIGNMENT.

He stared until his vision blurred.

It was real.

Or real enough.

A laugh broke out of him, small and breathless. It sounded almost like relief. Almost like madness.

Then another notification appeared.

His mother.

Mom: We’re so proud of you already. Come home when you’re done. Your father is trying to act calm, but he keeps checking the window.

Wade’s throat closed.

For one second, he almost threw both cards out the window. Almost turned the car on and drove anywhere but home. North, south, out of the city, out of the system, out of his own name.

But there was nowhere to go.

The woman’s words returned to him.

You go home. You smile. You let them celebrate.

Wade wiped his face with both hands. His skin felt raw. His eyes burned. He pulled down the visor mirror and looked at himself.

Terrible.

He looked terrible.

Red eyes. Wet cheeks. Pale mouth. The face of someone who had been broken open and poorly stitched shut.

“No,” he whispered.

Not like this.

He could not walk into the house looking like grief. He could not hand his father an Alpha card, his hands shaking and his eyes swollen. He could not let his mother study his face too closely.

He took a few slow breaths. They scraped on the way in.

In.

Out.

Again.

He tucked the real card deep into the inside pocket of his jacket.

The fake one stayed in his hand.

No.

Not fake.

Not tonight.

Tonight, it was the only thing standing between him and ruin.

Wade started the car.

The engine sounded too loud in the garage. He drove carefully, both hands on the wheel, eyes fixed ahead. At the exit, the guard barely looked at him before the barrier lifted.

For a moment, Wade expected sirens.

None came.

The city opened around him, bright and clean under the afternoon sun. Screens on the sides of buildings flashed smiling faces and classification slogans. Men walked in groups, some laughing, some holding cards, some already wearing colored bands that marked their new status. Wade saw one young man lift his Alpha card above his head while his friends shouted and slapped his back.

Wade looked away.

The Alpha card on the passenger seat caught the light.

He hated it.

He needed it.

The drive home felt shorter than it should have. Too soon, he turned onto his street. The houses here were wide and bright, built for families with approved histories and clean records. Trim lawns. White fences. Security flowers blooming near every gate, their small camera eyes hidden among artificial petals.

His family home stood at the end of the street.

There were balloons tied to the porch.

Gold and white.

Wade slowed the car.

His stomach sank.

A banner hung above the front door.

PROUD OF OUR FUTURE ALPHA

For a second, he forgot how to breathe.

They had put it up before knowing about it.

Of course, they had.

Because they had never imagined another result.

His hands tightened around the wheel until his knuckles ached.

His father’s car was in the driveway. His mother’s too. His brother’s bike lay on the grass, abandoned in the careless way only happy people could abandon things. Through the front window, Wade saw movement. Figures passing. His mother is in her blue dress. His sister’s hair was swinging as she rushed across the room. His father was standing near the mantel, tall and solid, one hand in his pocket.

 

 

Waiting.

Wade parked.

He sat there.

Inside, someone noticed the car.

His little sister appeared at the window first. Her face lit up. She shouted something over her shoulder, then vanished.

Wade had seconds.

He picked up the Alpha card.

His hand shook.

He forced it still.

Then he opened the door and stepped out.

The front door flew open before he reached the porch.

His mother came out first.

“Wade!”

She ran to him and wrapped her arms around his neck so tightly he almost dropped the card. She smelled like vanilla soap, warm bread, and home. For one awful moment, Wade was eight years old again, hiding his face against her shoulder after a bad dream.

Only this time, he could not tell her what scared him.

“My big boy,” she whispered. “My beautiful boy.”

Wade closed his eyes.

He nearly broke right there.

“I’m back,” he said.

It was the safest thing he could think to say.

His mother pulled away just enough to look at him. Her eyes were wet already, proud before proof, happy before truth.

“Well?” she asked, voice trembling.

Behind her, his father stepped onto the porch.

Marcus Harper did not rush. He never rushed. He came forward with the steady confidence of a man who believed the world was built to hold his weight.

His gaze moved from Wade’s face to his hand and then his crotch.

“Show us,” he said.

The porch went quiet.

His brother appeared behind their father. His sister stood beside their mother, both hands pressed to her mouth.

Wade lifted the card.

For a heartbeat, nobody moved.

His father took it.

Wade watched his eyes scan the surface.

Name.

Seal.

Classification.

A slow smile spread across Marcus Harper’s face.

Not surprising.

Confirmation.

As if the card had done nothing but agree with him.

“Alpha 8,2 inches cock size,” his father said.

His mother made a soft sound and covered her mouth. His sister squealed.

Wade stood very still.

His father looked up from the card and gripped Wade’s shoulder.

Hard.

Proud.

Possessive.

“I knew it,” Marcus said. “I knew it, it’s genetics, son i mean the harpers always deliver a big package.”

Wade tried to smile.

His face obeyed badly.

His father did not notice. Or maybe he did and mistook it for emotion.

“Come here,” Marcus said.

Then he pulled Wade into an embrace.

That was worse than the shoulder.

His father’s arms were strong around him. Familiar. Warm. Wade had spent his whole life wanting this exact kind of approval from him. No lecture. No test. No distance. Just pride, simple and open.

And now that he had it, it felt like theft.

Marcus held him at arm’s length.

“You had us waiting,” he said, laughing. “Your mother nearly wore a path through the floor.”

“I’m sorry,” Wade said.

“Sorry?” His father laughed again. “You come home, Alpha, and apologize?”

Everyone laughed.

Wade laughed too, a second late.

His mother took the card from Marcus and kissed it.

Actually kissed it.

Wade felt something inside him twist.

“Oh, Wade,” she said. “I knew my son would be exactly who he was meant to be.”

The words hit him harder than the examination had.

Exactly who he was meant to be.

His sister hugged him next, bouncing on her toes.

“Everyone’s going to be so jealous,” she said. “Lina’s brother only got Beta-2, and her family acted like it was fine, but I could tell they were dying because of her brother having a small 5-inch penis.”

“Don’t say that,” their mother said automatically, but she was smiling too much to mean it.

Wade looked at his sister’s face. Bright. Proud. Innocent in the cruel way children could be when the world had taught them cruelty as common sense.

His brother stepped forward last.

He was eighteen, tall for his age, still growing into his shoulders. He looked at Wade as if Wade had returned from war, carrying a flag.

“Was it hard?” he asked.

Wade’s mouth went dry.

The white room flashed in his mind.

The lights.

The gloves.

The cold voice reads measurements like a sentence.

“No,” Wade said.

The lie came out easily.

Too easily.

His brother grinned.

“I knew it. Dad said, “Harper men don’t fail classification.”

Their father gave a pleased snort.

“That’s because Harper men know what they have.”

Wade looked down.

His real card felt heavy inside his jacket pocket, pressed against his ribs like a hidden wound.

His mother took his hand and pulled him inside.

The house exploded around him.

Music. Warm light. Food was spread across the dining table. Gold napkins. A cake with white frosting and the word ALPHA written across the top in careful letters. Wade stared at the cake.

His mother noticed.

“I know, I know,” she said, laughing through tears. “It’s silly. But I wanted today to feel special.”

“It is,” Wade said.

His voice sounded far away.

His father opened a bottle of sparkling wine. The cork popped, and his sister clapped. His brother took pictures. His mother kept touching Wade’s arm, his hair, his shoulder, as if she could not quite believe he was home, confirmed, and safe.

Safe.

That was the word everyone seemed to feel.

Everyone but Wade.

They gathered around the table. His father poured drinks, giving Wade the first glass.

“To my son,” Marcus said.

Wade’s fingers tightened around the stem.

His father raised his own glass.

“An Alpha, as expected.”

“As expected,” his brother echoed.

His mother cried openly then. His sister leaned into her side, smiling.

Everyone looked at Wade.

Waiting.

He lifted his glass.

The room blurred for a second.

“To family,” Wade said.

It was not what an Alpha would have said. He knew that immediately. His father might have said legacy. Strength. Blood. Future.

But his mother’s smile softened.

“To family,” she repeated.

They drank.

The wine tasted sharp, sweet, and wrong.

Dinner passed around him in fragments.

His father is talking about the supermarket.

“There’s room for you in management now. Real room. Not charity work. Not training. You’ll come in beside me.”

His mother is calling relatives.

“Yes, Alpha. Yes, verified. We’re so grateful.”

His brother is asking questions.

“What did the room look like? Were they strict? Did anyone cry? Are all of them women? Was she shocked by how big you were?”

His sister laughed at messages from friends.

“They’re already asking if you’re going to the recognition gala.”

Wade answered when he had to—smiled when someone looked—nodded when his father spoke. Every movement felt rehearsed by someone who had studied humans but never been one.

At one point, his father leaned close and lowered his voice.

“You see now?” Marcus said. “All that worrying you used to do. All that softness. None of it mattered. Blood corrected it.”

Wade’s fork stopped halfway to his mouth.

Blood corrected it.

His father clapped him gently on the back.

“Tomorrow, we start planning properly. Your future doesn’t wait.”

Wade nodded.

He could not speak.

Across the table, his mother was looking at him with such love that it hurt to meet her eyes.

She thought he was overwhelmed.

Maybe he was.

Just not in the way she believed.

After dinner, his sister insisted on taking a picture. Wade stood between his parents, facing the banner. His father held the Alpha card toward the camera. His mother wrapped an arm around Wade’s waist.

“Smile,” his sister said.

Wade smiled.

The flash went off.

For a moment, the bright white light erased everything.

Then the room returned.

The banner.

The cake.

The card.

The lie.

Hours later, when the celebration finally loosened its grip, Wade escaped upstairs.

He did not run. Running would have looked strange. He walked slowly, one hand sliding along the banister, while laughter continued below him.

His room was exactly as he had left it that morning.

Bed unmade.

Alarm clock on the desk.

Old posters on the wall.

A shirt was thrown over the chair.

The normality of it almost made him sick.

He closed the door and locked it.

Then he stood in the middle of the room, listening.

Downstairs, his family was still celebrating. His father’s voice rose above the others. Proud. Loud. Certain. His mother laughed at something. His brother said Wade’s name.

Wade crossed to the mirror.

The person looking back at him wore the same clothes, the same face, the same forced calm.

But something had split.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out the Alpha card.

The government seal gleamed.

WADE HARPER.
CLASSIFICATION: ALPHA.

Then, slowly, he reached into the inside pocket of his jacket.

The real card was warmer from being pressed against his body.

WADE HARPER.
CLASSIFICATION: BETA-S.

He held them side by side.

The same face stared back from both.

One was the truth.

One was the life everyone downstairs loved.

Wade’s phone buzzed.

He nearly dropped both cards.

Unknown number.

The message contained no greeting.

Tomorrow. 7:00. East service entrance. Come alone. Bring the Alpha card.

A second message arrived before he could breathe.

Do not tell your family. Do not search my name. Do not be late.

Wade stared at the screen.

His reflection stared back over it, pale and hollow-eyed.

Downstairs, his family cheered again. Someone must have cut another piece of cake. Someone must have said his name. Someone must have raised another toast to the man they thought he was.

Wade slipped the Beta-S card under his mattress.

Then he looked at the Alpha card one last time before placing it carefully on his desk.

A trophy.

A mask.

A leash.

Behind the locked door, Wade listened to his family celebrate his future.

In the silence of his room, he understood that it no longer belonged to him.
