CHAPTER 2 : ( The sickness )

Aqua Louise

I left the dining room after what happened and buckled up myself in the confinement, of my room which is what I've always done, thankfully my room is sizeable enough not that it's big but it's comfortable for people like us who were considered as nothing, I was able to get this room all thanks to Alpha prince Zethro, thinking about it, today is not the first time he has helped me, sometimes he looked at me with pity and sometimes I can't just read his expression but I know that whatever it's I don't want to raise my hopes high by naming it love, because you know if you are an Omega you'll understand that you'd to be careful of what you wish for, the least you could wish is to be accepted and nothing else, so I don't dare raise my hope but then we all deserved to be loved.

None of us wanted to be weak and we cannot also question the moon goddess, because if you are to ask me everybody must not be the same but at the same time no one and I mean no one wishes to be born as an Omega. Tears trickled from my eyes as I wiped it off, tomorrow is the day that I'm finally going to meet my mate the day I have been waiting for, I have longed for this day my reasons were to show myself that I can love and be loved, for the fact no mate hates his or her mate, there is hope for me.

I stood up, the air in my room is suffocating me already I don't want to taint my thought with negativity so I stood up still in my red floral gown, it was one of my best dresses which I brought out at least I need good luck ahead of the ritual of the moon if my family can't give me there blessing, red colors are considered as blessings so I had nothing to worry about. I walk out to the frontage of the packhouse and lean against the railings. The morning breeze did justice by blowing my hair to different angles. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply if only I didn't have so much to worry about just if only everything is fine.

I smile and opened my eyes, here is one of the secluded areas in the packhouse, I admired the surrounding, I look around actually the side building has a window at the upper part which is the window to Alpha prince Zethro's room, I'm tempted to take a look but something in me was against it but like my stubborn and curious mind will not rest I turn my head to the side slowly I lift up my head but closed my eyes, when I'm sure I positioned my head well enough, I opened my eyes bit by bit only for me to come in contact with that cute and stunning hazel eyes that will not stop making my heartbeat, I can feel my heartbeat hammering and thump hard against my chest, he stood gloriously with his two hands clasped behind his back as he stares at me like we're in some kind of staring competition, remembering how he stood up for me earlier a blush crept up my face as I blush but then he was staring at me with mixed emotion that only him can decipher.

He was still there when his girlfriend appeared and kissed his cheeks, I wince as I felt a pin being stuck to my chest, I looked away not wanting to see the rest obviously his girlfriend is trying to get on my nerves it's not like I can stand up to her I'm nobody and sometimes I wonder why the Alpha had to be with her instead of finding his mate, he's supposed to already or maybe he won't want to I don't know. I hissed when I looked back and they were gone. I decided to take a stroll around the packhouse, I wasn't able to attend a school like others because I'm Omega we aren't given that privilege. My father might be one of the Council but to the world "I'm not and will never be his child" That is what he always says, so here I am in my own shell trying my best every day to crawl out but with only one hope ''Mate".

"Hey Silva" I wave when I bumped into the only friend I have and of course she's an Omega

"Where are you going?"

"Taking a walk, I feel suffocated"

"You should be happy tomorrow is the day we've been hoping for and you don't have to be sad," She said hugging me lovingly and I nod my head as she pats my back and caress my hair lovingly, she breaks the hug and smiled at me lovingly

"Let's walk together"

"Thanks" I muttered taking her hand,

"It feels good to be loved, only if we get to experience this feeling every day," I thought as a tear slipped down from my eyes, but then Silva halted her steps making me stop too. She cupped my face with her palms and wiped away my tears using her thumb.

''You're stronger than this, and I need you to remain strong okay?"

"Okay" I nodded my head forcing a smile

We took a walk round the packhouse and even outside. In other to make us happy Silva used the money she has and we went to the amusement pack and had fun. We even got some ice cream. it was already dawn when we came back I was already tired, Silva has left for her quarters while I returned to my room, I'm suddenly feeling sick I don't know why but I went to the bathroom pulled off my clothes and entered the shower, I stayed there for a longer time hoping I'd feel better but it worsened, I came out and wore my cloth, I went to the Kitchen and told Madam pecki how I'm feeling, well she secretly helps us Omegas though she's the head of the servant and also a true born not Omegas like us, she prepared a herbal tea for me which she promised I will be better by tomorrow well she said to me "You have to be okay child, nothing should spoil your day tomorrow" She said to me, I smile and thank her before returning to my room as I hugged the comfort of my bed and coiled myself in a bun before covering my whole body with the duvet, I tried to sleep but it's like my body is not responding to it at all, slowly I stood up from the bed and took hold of my baggy jacket as I wore it on my body, I wore my flip flop and open the door slowly.

As I walked towards the lonely hallway everywhere was quiet, I went to my favorite spot outside and sat down, the event of what happened here earlier today flashed my mind, and I balled my fist under my jacket, tempted to look up at the Alpha prince window but no! I resisted the urge, as anger surged through me I stood up angrily to walk out only to behold the Alpha prince as he stood and stared at me in his glorious manner, he stood tall in his black sweatpants and white shirt with his hands folded behind his back as he looks so ravishing, "Quit checking him out" My subconscious snapped at me and I withdrew my stare and looked away

"Are you okay?" He suddenly asks, making my head snap towards him.
