Bound by a Hybrid and a Lycan

“Calm yourself, it's me.” Asterion's smooth voice washed away my fears, and I breathed a sigh of relief as he removed his hand from my mouth. I turned around and looked into his unnatural but beautiful purple eyes; they seemed so ethereal, like stars twinkling in the night.“It’s alright. I'm here.” His hand found its way to my cheek, and I closed my eyes, leaning into his touch.“I’ve missed you,” I said, rushing into his embrace and clinging to him.“I know, I'm sorry it's taken so long for us to meet. I had to take care of some last-minute tasks your father piled up for me,” he explained as he stroked my hair.We broke the hug, and he scanned me slowly, taking in the red lingerie that peeked out from under my robe. I sensed his purple eyes darken with desire, and a blush crept up my cheeks.“You look…” his voice trailed off as he licked his lips.“Beautiful?” I offered, shyly playing with the buttons on his shirt.“Ethereal is the right word.” He grinned and closed the gap between

Seraphina POVDarkness surrounded me from all corners. It was a void so deep and cold that it felt like I was sucked into a black hole or abyss. It was terrible. What made it even more frightening was the faces surrounding me and taunting me with their sneers and wicked laughters. The faces of Asterion and Tiffany.“Seraphina, you're worthless. You will never amount to anything in your life.” Asterion taunted with a malicious glint in his eyes.“You should just die, your existence is not needed on this earth. Die!” Tiffany sneeredI closed my ears with my hands, trying to down out the noises but their voice still reached me. Their faces twisted and contorted into horrible masks that haunted my consciousness even though I closed my eyes. “Leave me alone! Leave me alone!” I screamed as my heart pounded in my chest. Memories of their betrayal flooded my mind. Tiffany's remorseless attitude, Asterion's stoicism and his claws plunging into heart and killing me. It was as if I relived ever

Kaliyah's POV Fogs of memories swirled in my mind as I slipped in and out of consciousness. These memories, I knew they weren't mine at all; they were the memories of the body I was currently in. They forced themselves into my being, imprinting someone else's experiences into my core until I didn't know who I was anymore. The fragments of memories continued to sink in, and as the final fragment merged with me, a cold sensation overcame me. It was the memory of how the original owner of this body died, but that wasn't what made me shiver in horror. It was a pair of cold purple eyes that stared down at me, and his lips stretched in a devious smirk. Asterion. In the memory, he had killed her in the exact same fashion as he killed me—a claw to the heart. A sick feeling of déjà vu consumed me, and I felt myself screaming out in terror. This was way too coincidental. “Ughh.” Finally, I opened my eyes and blinked against the warm light that flooded my vision. “Lady Kaliyah!” I heard

Kovu POV*Shut up, Kyrax,* I snapped back at him as I walked down the corridor. *I don't want to hear it right now.**Try all you want, but you can't ignore it, Kovu. The bond will keep pulling you back to her. You'll only make things harder for yourself.*Both my Lycan and I couldn't seem to come to an agreement, and I wasn't in the mood for a lecture from him. He had never been like this—so annoying and uncooperative—so I blocked him out as best as I could.The mate bond was already a heavy burden, and the last thing I needed was Kyrax reminding me of it every five seconds.I reached my chambers in record time and flung the door open. I stepped inside and began to pace back and forth, trying to work off my frustrations.Before long, there was a knock on the door, and before I could respond, it swung open and Daphne stepped into the room. She wore a see-through gown that gave me a good view of her ample breasts and delightful curves. Her eyelids fluttered seductively, and she swayed

Kaliyah's POVKovu’s massive form hurtled toward me like a blazing comet, his claws stretching out and glinting wickedly under the light of the moon.Time seemed to slow down significantly as I watched the claws slashing toward my head. I barely had a moment to react, but in the nick of time, my instincts took over, fueled by the mana. I twisted my body just in time, the claws grazing past where my head had been only a fraction of a second earlier.Kovu crashed into the ground, and I rolled to the side, using the momentum to get back on my feet. We both stood up and locked eyes. All I could see in those eyes was burning hatred.*What is wrong with you? Why did you attack me?* I snapped at him through the mind link. I mean, who wouldn’t be mad when you just got your head nearly chopped off in a surprise attack?*Shut the hell up!* Kovu growled in response. *Why would you be out here parading yourself around?**Parading myself around? What kind of question is that? I’m not the one tryin
