The Promised Child.

The Past

I wouldn't normally ask such person questions as we have just met, but as tomorrow will be your first shift I feel we need to know. How much do you know about your families bloodline, Mia? "Im embarrassed to say nothing at all, I thought I was an omega wolf until i met Lyra a few hours ago. My mother and brothers died in a Rogue attack when I was 12, and they were Alpha wolves.

Or should I say the wolfs I thought were my family. Lyra also just told me they were not my real parents and that I was stolen as a baby. Im still in shock, to be honest. I dont even know if Mia is my real name. My whole life was a lie". She choked back a sob."Why kidnap me. I don't understand, im no one, nothing an Omega. My family didn't even like me."

Woah, hold on. Firstly, you are incredible. You are not, nor will never be nothing. What do you mean your family didn't even like you"I dont know Alpha Blake". I just guessed I wasn't good enough. Mia put her hands around her shoulders and curled her legs up and started rocking back and forth.

Blake frowned, then spoke softly. You have had a lot to take in for today. Would you like to take a walk around the grounds. I can show you where you will have your first shift.I find nature relax's me and Floyd, and it's almost 8pm. You slept most of the day.

Mia always loved nature and felt safe with Blake. He placed a jacket aroubd her shoulders taking her out the back door. Sge wasn't strong enough to meet the pack yet and even with her wolf now healing her physical injuries. She was very frail and had clearly trauma from her past.

Mia do you feel like you would like to talk to anyone to help you process anything you don't feel ready to share with me. We have some get councillors that really help. Thank you Alpha um yes that would be good. I think I need to. She brushed passed Parker on her other side and immediately flinched. She knew she wasnt in danger as she was with Blake. But it had always been her body's reaction. She found it hard to trust as even her family betrayed her.

Mias mind flashed back to an incident in her past. Her mind often replayed her memories, making her relive her past traumas. Her brothers often played mind tricks, making her think they were on her side or going to help her only to betray her for their own amusement or to their own individual needs to gain their fathers favour.

She was in the cellar as usual, sitting on her old cot rocking forward and backwards hugging her knees. It was past midnight, and she had finished all of her chores. Her brother Ivor had told her to come and eat some leftovers. He had managed to sneak from their dinner earlier that evening. He whispered to her in a gentle tone, reassuring her that the coast was clear and that he could no longer be part of her torment.He said how she was his little sister and reminded him of their mum before she passed and how it was the grief that blinded him. He played his part so well that she had even started to console him. Eventually, Mia went with him and started to eat hungrily. Ivor even went to warm some milk for her. He promised to help her escape and even got her an additional blanket. This went on for the next few days. Finally, he had stolen the keys to the back door to the house and had given her some money and helped her to make it outside. When she got outside, he raised the alarm, and her father had caught her, whipped her, starved her and increased her working hours, and stopped her from going outside for a month. Of course, he rewarded her brother. How could he be so cruel.

Mia Mia, wake up wake up. Please wake up. Mia opened her eyes and felt her nose dripping it was happening again. Every time she had a trauma flashback, her nose would bleed, and she would pass out. Blake gave her some tissues, pain, and concern evident in his face. Mate hurt, growled Floyd. Blake held her hand and called the nurse Violet back. She came rushing out and held some tissues to Mias nose. Then held her head up. The bleeding lasted only a few minutes, but this was not usual for wolfs. Their animal counterpart usually healed them almost instantly. This girl was getting more intriguing by the moment.

Do you want to sit for a while and get some fresh air. We can see the grounds tomorrow. Is it ok if I stay in your room with you tonight, on the sofa. Floyd needs to be close to Lyra. Sure I guess. Lyra cheered in her head. Mate cares for us.
