Zoe and Anna blitzed through the qualifiers and got a spot in the main draw for doubles. Anna was only doing doubles and mixed doubles. Zoe could only do doubles. At least it was something to do here. Mitchel was watching the action from the stands. So was Molly. She was pregnant, so there was an excuse to not play. This was another grass court tournament. Anna did not mind. Reilly and Zoe were reliable partners. As long as she could keep the rally going, they would figure out a way to end it in their favor. This time was not any different. Throughout the week, they were going around the complex to fight in the right matches. Zoe and Anna managed to keep up their winning streak up to the final. The opponents were a pair of alpha females. They were pretty tough, but nothing that Anna could not handle. They won the doubles championship match 6-4, 6-3. Anna was pleased to see that the opponents were still at least 15 levels lower than Reilly and his siblings. Reid and Rhys defeated Evan and Reilly in the semifinals. In the finals, they beat Ronan and Mitchel too.
The girls did not qualify for mixed doubles. That meant it was just Reilly and Anna racking up points when they won the mixed doubles title. Zoe had won in doubles, so it was a boon to her. She would definitely be able to compete in the tournament coming up. Usually she played singles and doubles. Anna asked her if she would consider partnering temporarily with either Reid or Rhys. She chose Rhys because Reid was married to Molly. Zoe said that she did not want any drama. Anna took all that at face value. Ronan absolutely dominated each and every opponent that he was put against. When he won, it was a classic Idut brother sweep. For the first time, all of the spectators in the crowd cheered for them. The boys looked shocked. Boos had been what they had been used to. It was then that they began to cry. Finally, they all had what they had longed for. The same thing happened 2 weeks later in the Eswa Open. This was a rare carpet court. It took time getting used to it all, but they won handily enough. Their heats cut their celebration short. They stayed in their hotel.
Sightseeing in both countries was fun. Neither Usnos nor Eswa were metropolitan cities. Both still had their quaint charm. They could see plays and movies there. The museum was something that Rhys really enjoyed. It had art from the founding of the countries up until some modern and post modern art. The vibes of the country were much different. Ceclar really elevated omegas. None of them had to wear collars. It seemed like they could walk freely without a care in the world. It was the alphas that had to walk with a chip on their shoulder. They had a metal facemask that covered everything below the nose. It was to keep them from biting during a rut. The jagged tooth design on them showed what society thought of them; they were a massive danger. Still, there were alpha-omega couples. That was biology. It was the happy, cute omegas leading their taller, stronger alphas around. It was like a kid walking a pitbull. Anna was sure alphas in Keblya would be sick if they saw this. In Glondar, it was similar. Alphas were masked up. There were visible beta-omega couples.
