Chapter 1: Sunlit Sacrifice

Mellifluous:
A sound that is sweet and smooth, pleasing to hear.

Like the sweet sound of a child's laughter, knowing they're living in the prime of their life—the time no one really thinks about. But the soft and gentle memories of a much easier time all swarm your head when you feel like you're drowning in the sea of stress, all based on the primary reasoning of growing older.

The hot sun prickles the omega's silky fur as he dashes through the green forest, chasing the elegant butterfly before him. The beautifully colored wings flutter in the summer breeze, flying with all their might, trying to distance themselves from the defenseless little omega pup. Fresh green leaves float to the ground as the short-lived summer turns to autumn, the warm breeze shifting to chilly winds. The young pup continues his chase after the alluring, angelic creature, unaware of the changes, simply happy to feel the warm nurturing of the summer sun on his body. He enjoys the last blink of warmth before the forest turns to ice, relishing the lively sounds of birds chirping and deer grazing in the open grass before it all turns silent. He absorbs the moment, filling his innocent soul with happiness.

He dashes into a stunning open field overflowing with flowers of all colors, a vision resembling heaven on earth. The warm sun bathes the flowers in life as they sway gently in rhythm with the slight breeze. The small omega pup stops in his tracks, the butterfly long forgotten, mesmerized by the beautiful view shining in his eyes.

Gracefully, he closes his eyes, taking a deep breath of the fresh air filled with the delightful scent radiating off the flowers. A soft smile spreads across his lips as he carefully opens his eyes, gazing at the ravishing landscape.

"Hey there, darling," The soft, calming voice of his trusted mother makes the pup jump in delight.

"Hey, Mama," He answers, looking over at his mother, who gently sits down beside him. Her angelic white wolf form rests gracefully, her loving gaze fixed on her son.

There is nothing in this world she loves more than her son. He is the light of her life, the only thing keeping her alive. She had become pregnant with this bundle of joy at a young age, with a man she believed was the love of her life. But her pregnancy wasn't seen as much of a joy the moment the pup proved to be an omega. His strong scent radiated from her as early as two months into the pregnancy. She was seen as a shame to the pack, both for being pregnant out of wedlock and for carrying a "weakling" deemed useless and attention-seeking. She was banished from her pack by her lover the moment she stood up for her unborn child.

Omegas are adored by everyone in this world, yet the pack decided against the new addition, claiming he would crave too much attention and distract the other members from their duties. They feared the omega's presence would demand constant care and protection. So, the pack's alpha decreed she must either abort or abandon the child. But when she refused, he cast her out, severing the mating bond between them. This caused immense damage to her and her pup, leaving them both fragile. Still, she tries her hardest to provide for her son, staying strong despite their limited resources as rogues.

"Did you catch the butterfly?" She asks, nuzzling her snout into his fur.

"Oh no, the butt-fly," He whines, recalling his little hunt.

"It's butterfly, my darling boy," She chuckles.

"Yeah, butt-fly!" He exclaims happily, bouncing on his feet with a huge grin, not recognizing his mispronunciation.

"You're too cute," She says, licking his fur, making it puff up.

"Mamaaa, no do that!" He mumbles, pressing his head to the ground to escape her grooming.
