The Era Of Old Beginnings

Chapter 8

It's been 5 days since the incident. I haven't left my room at all. Freia sleeps with me every night. One night I wasn't in the mood and well things got pretty heated and I haven't seen her since. I was actually beginning to feel lonely. Where was she? Why wasn't she here? Was she hunting again? Does hunting cool down her mind when she's mad? Either way I felt terribly sick. I didn't know what was wrong with me. So here I am just outside of the village puking my brains out. I hated being sick. Did I catch something?

I tensed as I felt a small tap on my shoulder making me look over only to see the black haired girl Freia's brother was talking to from before.

"Can I help you?" I ask weakly.

She just smiled as she gave me some strange green leaves. They looked like the ones Freia gave me the day I hurt my arm.

"Eat."

She said calmly as she gave me the leaves. Nodding my head I start to eat them which is when she put both her hands on my stomach and smiled.

"You need to eat more. You are with child. My sister will be very pleased by this news."

"You speak my language? Wait- did you just say I was with ch- child?" I could feel the color from my face drain as she nodded in confirmation.

"Wait. So your Freia's sister? How many siblings does she have?"

"I am her sister but in her eyes I am a mistake. Judah only sees me as family."

"Mistake? Judah? What do you mean?"

"Judah. My brother who you thought was fancying me. The mistake part. I'm not sure if your aware but I'm an omega. My entire family except for Judah has cast me aside. The only reason I'm still in this village is because of Judah."

I was even more confused.

"Omega? What do you mean by that?"

"Where did you come from again? I am surprised you haven't heard of the term Omega."

I was about to say something until she suddenly spoke nervously.

"I must leave."

She quickly left looking scared making my all the more confused. I had a lot of questions.

"Brianna."

I tensed at Freia's voice and when I turned to see her for the first time I couldn't help but glare at her and walk off. She left me alone. It's only right for me to do the same.

I suddenly felt Freia's hand grabb mine yanking me towards her.

"Let me go!"

"I- I am sorry for the loneliness I have caused you these past few days."

I stopped fighting her as I heard her speak my language for the first time.

"Y-You can speak my language now?"

"I can. It's why I have been gone for so long. My brother taught me. I'm- still learning though. I only learned words I found necessary."

"I see. Why did you have the need to learn my language? From what your brother told me you where not fond of learning a new language."

"This is true. Two things. One, I wanted to tell you I love you. Two, I wanted to ask you if you would like to travel with me for a few days?"

"Travel where?" Traveling sounds really nice right now. Maybe I can find a way back home.

"It's getting colder. You haven't been feeling well that much I could sense. We need to be somewhere warmer so I can help you get better."

"I'm not sick though."

She looked confused as I sighed heavily and sat down on the nearest stone.

"I have just learned that I am pregnant."

"Pregnant? What is this word you speak of?"

Right. Her sister used with child.

"I mean I'm with child. It's nothing but baby sickness." I tell her trying very hard to put it into her own words so that she will understand.

She beamed suddenly as she picked me up and spun me around taking me completely by surprise.

"Tonight we feast! I will hunt the largest beast in my lands! This is great news to be held!"

As she walked off I couldn't help but smile. Still I can't help but wonder what her sister had told me.

Sighing heavily I turn around only to see familiar purple eyes looking right at me.

"Indigo?"

"I'm sorry."

I suddenly felt a sharp pain hit the back of my head making me loose consciousness.

Did she just hit me?
