Chapter "30"

Eren had never really seen Levi behave like that, but it didn't mean that he was against it, as long as no one got hurt. Darius and Pixis sat back in their chairs, stubbornly folding their arms.

"Right then, this meeting was originally called because the Princess Hitch pulled a hissy fit over not getting me and being slapped by my mate," Levi said. Hitch could not look anyone in the eye. She knew what she had done and she knew that she couldn't stop it. "So we are here to make things very clear. Even though you, Darius, understand the situation, I'm not too sure you are keen on it at the moment." Darius sighed and leaned forward.

"It's not that, Rivaille. I know we are harsh on our Omegas, but we need to show them who to obey," Darius said. Levi rolled his eyes, knowing that he changed the subject.

"Obey? Why must they obey us? Being Kings, we are already obeyed by the rest of our Kingdom, by why only Omegas? Why not Betas? They are weaker than us," Levi asked. Pixis sighed.

"Because that is tradition, Rivaille. I grow tired of this childness. We thought you were the type of person that wouldn't bother in this sort of nonsense," he said. Levi clicked his tongue and stood up.

"I understand that Darius and Eren already know this story, but let me fully explain what this tradition did to my mother," he said. Darius nodded and looked down. "Pixis, because of this tradition you speak of, my mother, a royal princess by blood, was cast away from the palace after my grandfather died. My uncle had no idea because she knew that she could not be heard. She died cursing the life the Alphas had forced her into. What was the term Omegas usually use...? Oh yes - 'All Alphas are the same'." The Queens looked at each other for a split second before turning to Eren. Eren smiled.

"As I grew up, I was once attacked by two Alphas that meant a lot to me. I killed them for it. Omegas aren't as weak as Alphas think. I don't think it is just me. Omegas are born to live the life of being sheltered and kept away from danger, meaning they are automatically weak. I wonder what would happen if the Omegas that are being born right now were treated as such and had the same treatment as Alphas and Betas. Do you think that we could stand side by side and not be looked down on?" Eren said. Levi looked a little surprised that Eren had told about his past, but accepted it. Pixis leaned forward.

"Omega are as they are because if we didn't keep them in line, they would probably rebel," he said. Eren frowned.

"They want to rebel because you treat them like this. So what's the real reason?" he asked. Pixis clicked his tongue.

"Eren, you need to understand that things weren't always like this. It is only in the last few decades that all of this spun out of control. There used to be a time where Omegas were protected, but people began to use them and it became a trend," he said. Levi huffed.

"Then why say tradition. If it is only a trend, then there are always people who think complete bullshit of it. It expected better from you two," Levi said. Darius sighed.

"It became tradition from our ancestors. We don't hurt our wives, Rivaille, we aren't that sick and anyone who does that should be banished, but it has become normal for them to follow orders. They are weak after all," he explained. Eren glared, before relaxing and leaned his head back.

"It's not that though, is it. If it was just to do with protection, then why talk to me in such a way that makes me think that I am nothing but a bitch. Even your own daughter isn't a bitch, Pixis, and you need to see that," Eren said, calmly. Hitch looked puzzled. "There are two reasons why this meeting is being held. The first is to clear up all the bullshit to do with Hitch and me. The second is to do with Omegas. I believe that Hitch is this way because Alphas, and maybe even Betas, have neglected her. She was never included in things. Darius, if I am correct you do not have a daughter of your own, right?" Eren questioned. Darius shook his head.
