Hi,

Currently the site two's contents accessed like this [site2.org...] I wanted it to be [site1.org...]

The usual method is to reverse proxy the requests to the image server.

You can do this most efficiently in httpd.conf, using the mod_proxy [httpd.apache.org] directives. If you don't have access to httpd.conf, then you can use the RewriteRule [httpd.apache.org] [P] flag (in mod_rewrite) to do it.
