Mated Flower

Introduction

Authors Note:

Hello, thank you for choosing to read this now. I know it sounds odd but I can't get the idea out of my head. I will try to post consistently but no promises.

I have no beta currently so if you would like to be one message me. I just need someone to read it and tell me if there is anything major wrong with it. I can do most of the grammar myself.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions feel free to comment on them or message me.

This will be multi POVs so you are warned

Persephone's POV:

I woke the same way I do every day with my mother pounding on the door "Persephone it is time to wake the sun is out the birds are singing"

I then greeted her with a polite "good morning".

I was not a morning person that's for sure, and I no longer enjoyed the spring-like I did as a child and dread the summer, even more, the heat in the sun, the fields that were endlessly filled with life yet seemingly dead to me. I desired to change something new something different.

With the games approaching I at least had some hope of an escape from the endless cycle of flowers, fields, and sunshine.

I hoped I would find the one true match person that would love and cherish me and pull me away from my mother.

 Some would love to be the daughter of Demeter that is until they actually know what she's like. Overbearing and choking for someone that is supposed to be the embodiment of growth and life she stills the life of her daughter never allowing her to grow up to change.

It was April and thankfully the games were in 6 days. I hope I won't have to be returned to my mother.

As an Omega, I would get to go live with my Alpha maybe my Beta. I craved the freedom he would offer me. I pulled myself out of bed with thoughts of quickly getting back in bed and pretending like this was never happening to me.

To pretend that I didn't have to go work hours in the field because my mother deemed it necessary. I thought better, I got dressed in the same boring girly dresses my mother demanded me wear put on my shoes and padded my way down to get some breakfast.

Then to go do another long hard day full of nagging from my mother and pining for a future that was different.

While I was working all I could think of was what would happen when I find my mate will he kiss me? What if it's not a he?

Will they claim me right there and take my virginity on television?

Am I okay with that? As it does not sound that bad to me right now to be dominated in such a way to be claimed so publicly and openly. To be desired by someone. My underwear are wet just thinking about the possibility.

As if she knew what I was thinking my mother yelled at me from a couple of rows down "Persephone pay attention or I will ensure you never meet your mate."

"Yes, mother" I yell back

I try to focus, I really do but my mind keeps wandering to what will happen when I enter the arena. I know I do not want to mate anyone but my true mate that's for sure. But do I want to mate anyone at all?

I do know that I want to leave here to not be under my mother's control any longer.

What do I want in a mate?

I mean, I am not immune to the whole dark and brooding type but maybe I want someone who is sweet and caring.

As long as they are willing to rail me and cuddle me, I don't think I really care that much. Being easy on the eyes would defiantly be a plus though.

My omega though she wants to be cared for and given pups I don't know I feel about that though as I am not the biggest fan of children. Safe to say she is not too happy about that stance of mine.

My biggest fear though aside from not having a mate and heights is that I am mated to a mortal. Don't get me wrong mortals are great, but I just don't know if I would give up my immortality or just let them die. I do not want to deal with that though.

I feel a hand on my shoulder and know what my mother is about to say. She has been saying almost the same thing for weeks.

Ever since she realized how close the games were for me.

"Persephone you know that I could always hide you away for a bit you don't really need a mate you have me." she turns me to face her "and even if you do go I do urge you not to accept any bond even if they are your mate you will just end up hurt. Do you want that to be left alone but mated just pining for someone who does not actually love you?"

I know she is just trying to manipulate me but every time she brings it up I feel less and less enthused about going.

"I know that there is a possibility that I get hurt but I would rather try than not." I try to stay calm and level-headed before she decided to lock me away anyways.

"Okay, I will let you go this once next year though we will discuss it."

This one sentence brings me anxiety. Most beings do not meet their mate their first year some because their mate is younger some because they just do not smell each other because of the distance.

I smile though and nod anything to keep her off my back. I turn and continue planting the seeds one by one.

So I need to either find my mate or move far far away. Even if I do find my mate, I need to move far away so essentially indeed to bring everything I care about with me.

EndNote:

So for those who are not familiar with the Omegaverse, let me explain how I am using it.

There are designations each being has as well as being mortal or immortal (gods) and they are as follows:

Alpha:

Generally male

Generally mates with omegas

Is possessive of his mate and protective of them

Are capable of knotting omegas (if you do not know what that means look it up)

Go into ruts once a month. Syncs up with omegas heat after mating

Beta:

Most mortals are omegas

Generally mates within their designation

Acts kinda like normal people

Their mating is more like soulmates instead of primal instincts

Omega:

Generally mates with alphas

Is seen as vulnerable and made to care for their family

Wants pups (kids) most of the time

Goes into heats once a month unless medicated

As to how they identify their mates that is based on a couple of things. First, they must be in the arena. Why? Don't ask I don't know, I just need to move the story along. Once they are in the arena you can smell your mate. Essentially, they smell really good to you and your hindbrain is telling you to mate them. Your hindbrain is kinda like your instincts but with a personality.

I am also using a kind of Greek mythology. You do not really need any previous knowledge of it to understand but it may be helpful to know who is who. You do not need specific myths though just to know names and what they are in control of.
