Chapter 2

Jason's POV

Nobody besides the people back at the foster home is aware of my psychic abilities.

Besides, I don't see it as an ability anymore. It's a curse. I have never been proud of possessing such power.

“Uhm…Sage Freya. That's your name right?” She nodded in response. “This isn't helping me at all.”

“Can you at least sit next to me?” She urged, trying to come closer to me.

I paused, trying to see whether trusting her was a really good idea.

“I think I'm better standing here.”

“Your power is a great thing, and I'm sure you don't know that.”

Why is she so bent on throwing so much value to this same power that I view as a curse?

“While I was at the foster home, my teachers told me that it would make me run mad.”

She smirked. “That's a huge lie, Jason.”

“I still don't trust you.”

“You don't need to trust me.”

“How did you know about my psychic ability?”

She paused as a soft grin spread across her face. “I can smell true power when I see one.”

“Look, I'm pretty sure you have the wrong guy.”

“I'm a Seeress,” she replied. “I'm never wrong.”

“This might be your first time.”

She stood up, making her way towards the door.

Then she stopped and turned towards me. “There's so much more to your power that you have no idea of.”

I sat on the edge of the bed, staring at her. “I don't want to get your hopes high.”

“I can help you develop into your full potential.”

She walked out through the door and shut it right behind her.

I leaned back on the bed, eyes glued to the ceiling as I pondered on the words she just told me.

Me…an Omega. I scoffed. She must be joking.

There's literally no way I can be of help to this pack.

They have themselves figured out, and there are tons of Betas here.

I literally sensed the energy that thrives within these walls. So there's definitely no way I'm going to become some…saviour or something.

Suddenly, my door was pushed open, and the Alpha walked in.

I swallowed hard, nearly choking under the aura he pulled right into the room.

I bowed my head slightly, making sure I avoided his piercing gaze.

He shut the door behind him, and then a sudden wind blew against my skin.

Goosebumps covered my entire body, and I just curled myself to the corner of the bed.

“Jason, right?” His baritone voice shook my nerves with trembling fear.

My limbs were visibly shaking, but I tried to force a nod.

He crossed his hands behind his back and leaned against a wall.

“There's no need for you to be scared.” His voice sounded really warm.

I lifted my eyes slowly and looked him in the eyes as utter shock was etched upon my face.

This wasn't the treatment I was expecting from an Alpha.

But I dare not question his actions. I know I want answers.

I know I'm very curious. But I can't let my curiosity put me into any further risks.

“I need you to feel free to change into the clothes in the wardrobe.”

I nodded, making sure I didn't utter a single word.

With that, he took his leave, shutting the door behind him.

I exhaled heavily, letting go of the air that seemed to have been choking me in my lungs.

That was a really intense moment for me, because it was just too hard for me to catch enough air.

Soon,darkness covered the night's sky, and insects could still be heard creeping from corners.

I kept turning from side to side, trying so hard to get myself to sleep.

But it seemed like it was going to be impossible for me to sleep.

That's the way I felt until my eyes shut.

Suddenly, I jerked from my sleep, heart racing with throbbing fear.

I just had a vision.

One of those many visions I always have while I'm asleep.

But this one seems shocking to me.

It's about Alpha Luther.

Something terrible might happen to him if I don't tell him this dream.

But I still can't go ahead and wake hom up tonight.

I remained on my bed, eyes glued to the ceiling as I waited for dawn.

Light slowly came, until it was finally the beginning of a bright new day.

I sat upright on the edge of the bed, heart thudding loudly against my chest as I thought about approaching Alpha Luther.

I stood to my feet, taking deep breaths as I kept placing one foot in front of the other until I got to the door.

But my limbs suddenly began to tremble so I returned back to the bed and laid back.

A few hours later, while I was buried deep in my thoughts of how to get over this burning desire to tell Alpha Luther about this vision, I heard a soft knock press against my door.

The door-knob turned, and the door creaked open as a maiden walked in.

“Alpha Luther has asked you to come down for breakfast.”

I jumped to my feet right away, braising myself as I went down the stairs to honour the invitation for breakfast.

I guess this is the best time to tell him about my dream.

I sat on the same spot reserved for me on the dining table, eyes darting away from him as I tried so hard to avoid that intimidating glare from his eyes.

I cleared my throat, pulling his attention towards me.

“Plea…please…I…I have something pressing I would love to tell you.” I stuttered.

It was so hard for me to get some control of my trembling fingers and sweaty face.

He nodded with no words coming out of his lips.

“You…you need to be very careful on your way out.”

His brows furrowed as he stared at me. “I don't understand.”

“Actually, I got a vision last night,” I replied. You were attacked on your way out today.”
