Chapter 3

The two omegas watched the robots building the factory with inhuman precision. Every piece of material used with the utmost efficiency, however back on the capital planet of the empire, which was named Erdime, their was an unspeakably dismal aura permeating the planet.

The reason was obviously the 'disappearance' of the omegas of two extremely powerful noble families. Security had been strictly enforced for many weeks now. The two powerful families knew that the two omegas must have escaped the planet, but they still hadn't found them after countless blockades and patrol sweeps. It was as if the two of them simply vanished into thin air. The families also knew they would have to end the strict checks on the planet sooner rather than later. Although the two families held considerable power, in the capital there were many other powerful families, including the royal family which have been bothered by these security measures.

The patriarchs in charge of the two families, as well as all the alphas with say in the family, that were currently present, were all meeting together to try and figure out what they were going to do to Arel and Sile.

"Shameless things, the both of them" said one alpha.

"Find them back, so they don't continue embarrassing us", said another.

"When they're caught back, find an alpha to marry them off to quickly, so they learn what an Omega should do", spoke one of the older alphas.

The two patriarchs listened silently. They both had no words. After they learned of the relationship their daughters had, they didn't believe it, but seeing their quick reactions,they had guessed that it must be true, and the time of this relationship was definitely not short.

Neither of the two patriarchs were stupid. Unlike some of the alphas that were speaking out with righteous indignation, they knew more about their daughters. Looking back at some of the suspicious points that they had glossed over, believing that they were just closer than normal, and even more so the various things the two had asked for or bought during the years,they both knew that the two omegas had been planning to escape for a long time.

Dabbling in investments, asking for some robots. They also had information collected in the past few weeks, detailing the purchase of building materials under false identities, as well as a small spacecraft that was kept ready and waiting at all times. They also found things that weren't included in the plan, those were much harder to find, and with some thought, the two patriarchs came to the conclusion that Arel and Sile had made multiple escape plans. Perhaps there was even a greater one that they hadn't found, which they had intended to use, not expecting to have to use an emergency plan.

The two patriarchs were both shocked at the depth of the girls scheming, as well as in awe of their ingenuity. Perhaps the intelligence they showed was just a fraction of their true capabilities. They wondered if the two even had plans in place, in case of being caught back, but if there were, they were very well hidden. All they knew was that they had robots, building materials and an unmarked spacecraft. They had probably fled to a lesser known area, which would be extremely difficult to find. After all, the universe is so vast, and the empire doesn't co trol all of it. However even if they haven't left the empire, there are countless star fields and solar systems that are uninhabited. Searching for the two would be like trying to find a needle at the bottom of the sea.

The two patriarchs that were stuck in their own thoughts came back to their senses when one of the younger alphas were talking.

"What do we do about the engagements for both of them?" he asked hesitantly.

There was silence in the room. The news had spread too quickly, and they couldn't contain it in time, so the other noble families would definitely be aware of it already. The two families that they had decided engagements with were both the direct lines of families of their status.

Arel was engaged to the grandson of the great duke. The Colt's had been awarded a dukedom centuries ago for their bravery and merits in battle. The grandson, Eric was only a century old and had already sat firmly in the position of major general of the first fleet that directly protected Erdime.

Sile's engagement partner was a marquis. She had been awarded the rank for her achievements in the field of biological research. Her current research was on the improvement of fundamental abilities, such as strength, stamina and speed.

Both alphas were young and talented, and it was quite difficult to get these engagements approved. Now that the word has spread, they all knew that these engagements would have to be cancelled. Their relationship has already spread to the powerful families, and no alpha would want an Omega that has been with another person. The only reason the two families haven't come to the door, is because they want to give them a chance to step down with some dignity. Of course it would cost them.

Arel's family was surnamed knight, and Sile's was surnamed Fang. The two families were both engaged in politics. There were many alphas in the family that held positions in the government. However these engagements were made to bring them a chance to acquaint themselves with the military officers, as well as give them access to highly sought after medicines and research.

Now those plans were probably done for. They thought about changing the omegas, but no alpha wants to be humiliated like that, and then given a replacement afterwards.

Knowing that it was pointless to stay any longer, the two families finished up the meeting and went back to their homes. The patriarchs would have to go out to the families and personally call off the engagements. Only with that level of sincerity would they be able to tide over the dissatisfaction. After all, it's fine to lose a friend, but it would be bad to gain an enemy.
