Liv's POV
"Liv...Liv" I heared a soft whisper call my name and I halted up from the bed in confusion. I didn't understand what was going up as I stood up on my feet and my eyes peered the unusual darkness that enveloped my room
"Who's that?" I asked in a whisper, my voice shaking a bit from the cold fear that consumed me.
"Don't you know who I am?" the voice questioned and I stepped back in fear.
"I don't want anything to do with you" I panicked, running towards a door which was open but before I could reach it, the door slammed shut on it's own and I gasped in fear as the curtains began to blow against each other.
"I'm your mother, Liv" the voice revealed. I was taken aback as tears began to form in my eyes. I couldn't believe what I just heared. I placed my hand on my chest, clenching on it tightly.
For some reason my chest was aching and with every deep breath I took, it became worse. I placed my hand on the wall for support.
"Mum" I muttered in a shaky voice and the tears which stunged my eyes flowed freely.
"Yes Liv it's me" the voice said and I shook my head in disapproval.
"No you aren't. You're just lieing to me, I'm sure you're aware of how much I miss my mum so you're trying to use my weakness against me" I declared, turning my body around.
My body slowly slipped to the floor and I drew my knees up to my chest, leaning my back on the edge of the bed as I began to rub my palms together. I shivered in fear.
"Please believe me Liv, I don't have much time. I need to tell you a secret that has been hidden from you" The voice divulged and I furrowed my eyebrow in confusion
"What are you talking about" I asked wiping the tears that had flowed down my cheeks.
"Look behind you" The invisible voice stated and with much hesistation, I closed my eyes and turned behind as I opened it slowly to see my mother in front of me.
My jaws dropped.
I began to sob uncontrollably. She casted a bright smile at me and spread open her arms as I raced towards her, pulling her in my embrace.
With my heart thumping fast, I hugged her tightly. It felt so surreal, almost too hard to believe "Mum it's really you. You have no idea how much I missed you" I cried out even though deep down I felt anger brewing inside of me.
After all she was the one who brought me into the world as an omega. She also left me at birth to deal with the stigma. I knew I shouldn't blame her, but what sort of a mother leaves her child and for so long too?
Tears flowed freely from her eyes to her cheek and she stroked my hair lovingly as I wondered if that was how a mother's touch felt, so soothing and comforting.
"I'm sorry my little girl but that was my fate. I didn't want to leave you. Everything was inscribed by destiny and there wasn't any way I could fight it" she replied almost as though she read me thoughts.
"I don't care about the past but now you're here with me, don't leave me" I pronounced as she slowly removed her hands from mine and I stared at her in bewilderment.
"I wish I could and I know you wouldn't be able to forgive me but I have limited time. I want you to know about your identity and for that you'll need to get the thought of being an omega out of your head" I squirmed as her voice echoed through the void.
"What are you talking about?".
"Your father was an Alpha," she blurted out
My jaw dropped.
She continued "Yes I am an omega and that's why everyone thinks you are an omega, but you are mixed with the blood of an alpha and an omega. That's why you have empathy and also fearless"
She revealed and I forced out a stifled laugh because I knew I was nothing like fearless. Emotional i could say yes to, but someone like me had lived in fear all her life.
"I don't know, but I can't bring myself to believe what you're saying but if your words are really true, who the hell is my father then?"
"You need to exercise patience Liv. You would meet him soon. He is not as far as you think he is but that is not the most important thing. There's something else I need to tell you"
"What do you have to say to me?".
"What I'm about to tell you is very important so you mustn't take it lightly for any reason. Luna Rebecca is trying to kill you".
I sighed not surprised, of course she was. Even the birds in the sky knew that by now.
"That's not new to me. She has tried to kill me once already" Or could I say multiple times? My life was indeed pathetic.
"Yes Liv, I'll admit she infact tried to kill you but you're forgetting she wasn't successful in her plan and we both know Rebecca is not a type to give up. She is going to try to kill you in the alliance party"
"What?"
"Yes Liv. Whatever I'm telling you right now is nothing but the truth. The alliance party is going to be a catastrophe and you should be close to Frank since he is the only that can protect you"
"What about the triplets. Can't they equally protect me? they are my mates" I inquired.
"Callum can. As well as Ryder, but Max__" she trailed off. "You need to stay away from him"
The mention of his name made my heart skip, but yet I was compelled to disagree. There I was being stupid again. I decided to let it be as a thought brushed through my mind.
"What about my father?. The least you can do is tell me his name"
"I can't give you an answer to your questions. It isn't the right time yet but whatever I've said to you, heed to it"
I noticed she was slowly moving backwards "Mum please you can't just leave me hanging. I have too many questions." I yelled out as she continued to step backwards.
"Take care of yourself Liv. I promise we will meet again"
Tears gathered in my eyes as a lump formed in my throat "Mum!" I called out shakily, stretching forth my hand as I moved closer to her in hastened steps but she didn't utter a word and she disappeared.
I slipped to the floor shakily. "Please don't leave me!" I cried out even though she had already left. "I miss you mum"
I jolted up from my sleep with beads of sweat formed on my forehead. I wiped it off as my eyes darted around. I couldn't find her. That was when I realised it was just a dream but deep down inside of me, I wished it was all true.
I wished she was there with me. I wished she was there all through out my childhood. Maybe I wouldn't have felt so neglected. Maybe I would have had a shoulder to cry on whenever I was treated like trash.
A mother's love was all I craved for but I guess it was never meant for me and I could never experience what would never be a part of me.
It was the night of the alliance party and I got alerted by someone knocking on the door. I stood up to my feet as mum's words resounded in my ears.
"You're father was an alpha. You're mixed with the blood of an alpha and omega" her voice reasonated in and I shook my head to ward off the feeling inside of me and the questions which occupied my mind, at least for now.
I opened the door and I saw the maids. It instantly clicked inside of my head that they were here in my room to dress me up for the alliance party.
"My lady may we come in?" Charlotte asked.
"Sure come in" I urged as they all stepped in, leaving Charlotte behind as she slammed the door shut behind her.
Without waiting for them to say a word to me. I sat down on the chair in my dressing mirror as I stared at my reflection. I was lost in thoughts and I didn't realize when they began to touch my face with a little bit of makeup and styled my hair.
I broke my knuckles as many thoughts crossed through my mind and I heaved out an uncomfortable loud sigh.
"Charlotte I want to ask you a question?" I voiced out.
"Yes my lady."
"What is the alliance party all about?" .
"It's about two packhouse coming together. The darkmoon pack alongside the darksky pack are joining heads with each other" Charlotte explained
Everything wasn't adding up. I instantly recalled how darksky tried to use me as a tool to get information about darkmoon in order to bring darkmoon pack down. So why the change of heart suddenly? why would they want to join hands with an enemy?
I also recalled Luna Rebecca and the Alpha of dark sky. How they were both planning. Was this what they really wanted?
And if at all this was what Luna Rebecca wanted. What did she stand to gain from it because she would never do anything without benefits?
The music from the halls made a cold shiver run down my spine. I remebered what my mother said about Luna Rebecca and I shuddered. She was going to try and kill me.
I thought of staying back and not going at all, but I knew the triplets would definitely come down to fetch me themselves.
But then again, I needed to know who my father was. Probably I might get to see him since I knew for a fact most alphas would be present.
But the question here was. How would I know who he was? I had never seen him before and I was so confused but I chose to clear my mind away from any doubts.
After some minutes I was finally ready to make my way down the hall for the alliance party. I was dressed in a blue flowing dress which was apparently a gift from the triplets.
I admired myself through the mirror and I knew the maids had really put their mind into decking me up and they did a wonderful job.
I stood up from the chair and walked towards the window, leaning the side of my arm against it as I stared through the window and at the party which was just starting.
I couldn't help the feeling of fear in my guts
I knew something bad was surely going to happen
