Her mother knew.

From the moment she realised she was pregnant.

She knew this child would be different.

Nothing abnormal showed during the pre natal checks so she was assured the child would be fine.

But this was not her first child. As a birthing slave, she knew well the trails of pregnancy and labour. and the pain of separation that would follow.

The day of the child's birth came as any other but all her fears came true as she saw the look of greed in the eyes of the birthing staff.

An omega! No!

Despite her fatigue of child birth she snatched the child back from those ruthless monsters and ran. She was a slave but due to her subservient behaviour she was not bound like so many. Her disobedience catching all off guard.

But meet moments later the calls of those giving chase were not far behind.

She ran to the edge of the property. The gap in the hedge still where she had spotted it. Inside a collection of objects carefully selected and placed. Magic was illegal but so was a free omega everything was worth the risk now.

She chanted words her mother once taught her. Light gathered around her and her child and then they vanished.
