Would you die for your soulmate if you ever had to?
Felicia held her breath watching the toxic chemicals before her that were designed to burn her skin right off of her bones.
She could remember every single missing child case where the children never returned home. Boys and girls not unlike her and her older sister.
She knew the truth that never got out for these teens or older siblings.
They had done what society frowned upon: fell in love with their siblings and became mates.
Felicia knew that the government killed them for being 'defective.'
She'd known Amelia and her older brother, Matthew, known that they hadn't run away, so she and Lovi had chosen to though they hadn't gotten far before being caught.
Felicia had told Marcella no when she'd fallen for Felicia and Lovi as it really was for the best for her little sister to live normally.
Felicia's skin prickled as she watched her older sister be nudged back towards the chemicals boiling, angrily waiting for their next meal.
She couldn't help the switch that went off inside her, or her yell as she shoved the Alpha males holding her back off of her.
Felicia shoved the government hired Alphas off her sister before she fell only to hear Lovina's shattered scream above her.
"Run, run! Get away!" Feli shrieked in response to her sister's screams.
Lovina ran away, tears streaking down her face.
She could at least get the word out there to save other pairs of siblings.
Feli trembled as her skin screamed from the burn disintegrating her skin.
Feli brushed her hair back with trembling fingers, ignoring the way hair burnt and sizzled off at the touch.
Her own tears relieved some of the burning, but not nearly enough to completely erase the quickly returning to full force burn.
Felicia felt hot and sick to her bones as Lovi's frantic footsteps faded down the hall.
Feli took a deep breath then to not steady herself but to rather savor one of her last breaths.
The men above her stood like stationary guards as if she had spider like agility to climb smooth walls.
Feli closed her eyes, letting the heat consume and scar her.
The young Omega let her sacrifice sink in, relieved that her sister could at least live another day as her skin buzzed sharply in the harsh sting of pain and the heat made her feel like she was melting which wasn't far from the truth.
The last thoughts to swirl in her head were of her sister; she didn't regret any decision that led up to this point.
One last crunch of fire, and she was gone.
