Hi! This chapter will explain the world building in detail. I hope this will give you a better understanding of the story.
History:
There was a time were the world was just like ours, no alphas or omegas. Alphas were the first to be discovered and they changed how things worked. At first they were seen as a rare genetic mutation and people tried to experiment on them, but they couldn't do it for long, because the alphas were a lot stronger than them. Omegas developed to be a perfect match to the alphas. at the beginning omegas were heavily disliked, people thought they were defects for being so weak and submassive. That notion changed after alphas and omegas started to mate and a lots of babies were born, almost enough to fix the birth rates. People today only know abot the old world from history books and old movies, but some of them wish they could go back to a time where only straight or bisexual people could have biological children.

How people view same sex relationships:
Homophobia is very much present in society. There are anti-discrimination laws and people in general are more accepting, but there are still problems. The views on same sex relationships can be devided into three categories:
1) Accepting, ally: A lot of poeple fall under that category, but the aren't the majority. They are kind and respectful to others and some of them protects or fights for gay rights. People in this category don't care if the couple in question can have biological kids or not, they'll be supportive regardless. This group is also more likley to support omega rights as well.
2) Homophobic with exceptions: They are the majority. This group will mostly accept same sex relationships if they are fruitful. They might also accept the relationship in two other cases: a) at least one of the two is a 100% infertile (so biological kids were never an option for them) or b) one of the two is intersex (has a mix of sex charactesistics). The second one is less common. They are fine with the fact that two guys can have children. The more kids the couple has the better they will be treated. They usually won't support omega rights, they'd rather keep them home and make them have as many kids as possible. They also treat same sex couples that don't fit their criteria poorly.
3) Homophobic to everyone: A loud and annoying minority. They hate all gay people. This group is aginst gay rights and omega rights. They are the ones who want to go back to a time, when same sex couples couldn't have children. They see omegas as a curse and treat them horribly. Some of them are crazy enough to be happy about the high suicide rates or hate crimes.

Who can have kids together?
1. alpha male-alpha female
2. alpha male-beta female
3. alpha male-omega female
4. beta male-beta female
5. beta male-alpha female
6. beta male-omega female
7. omega male-omega female
Pregnancy:
Not everyone can get pregnant and some of the things during pregnancy can differ.
1. Alpha female: the chances of pregnancy are low, because of their high testosteron levels. Alpha females are more likley to have irregular periods. They might have high-risk pregnancys. Alpha males have the biggest chance to make them mothers, beta males have low chances. Might need c-sections.
2. Beta female: they are like the women in our world. They can get pregnant from alpha males or beta males. Irregular periods and problems with fertility are possible, but they are less common. Might need c-sections, but natural birth is more common.
3. Omega females: they have a high chance to get pregnant. They can mate with any male including omegas. They have menstruation cycles and heat cycles, which means the have increased fertility more often than anyone else. High-risk pragnancys are extremly rare. They don't need c-sections, unless it is an emergency.
4. Omega males: high fertility. They are the are the most fertile during their heat cycles. Their male parts are mostly infertile or have a low fertility, they can only impragnate omega females. Their testosteron levels are naturally lower, but they can still be a problem during pregnancy. Omega males need c-sections in all cases.
Everyone's scent changes during prenancy. Usually pregnant people feel more comfortable if they can smell their mate's scent.
* Alpha and beta males can't get pregnant . The chances of a beta male impragnating an omega are low.

Vocabulary:
Giving life: An expression usually used for omega males, because they have c-sections. It can also be used on anyone who had a c-section, but it might be seen as a negative in that context. The third use of the term is people who don't feel comfortable with saying they gave birth or simply prefer this instead.
Heat: An omega goes into heat every two months. This is the time when they have the highest chance of pregnancy. An omega in heat wants to repruduce and can't think of anything else, for this reason an omega in heat can't consent. Mates can sleep with eachoter during heat, if they agreed on it prior to the heat. The omegas scent is a lot stronger during their heat. It usually lasts 3-5 days (unless the omega concieves).
Rut: Alphas rut can be triggered by an omegas heat. The urge to procreate is stronger during rut. The alphas have more control over their ruts, but it can still cloud their judgement. The alphas scent is stronger during rut.
Suppressants: There are heat suppressants and rut suppressants. They can help the person to be able to think straight and it can also function as a pankiller for omegas in heat.

- Kids find out if they are an alpha, beta or an omega at 14. It can be earlier or later depending on when their pubertity starts.
- Alpha-omega pairs have mate bonds and marks. Beta-beta pairs get married instead
- Bonds are unbreakable for the most part, widows can find another mate
