Hybrid Luna Chapter 15
Neaera-I had no intention of letting the fight drag out. Even if I had to play my trump card, I was going to put Chloe in her place once and for all. It was a pity that she didn’t know who I was, but I knew who she was, and I remembered all the things she had done to me.Watching her strip out of her clothes, I did feel a little envious of her. Although I was part werewolf, I couldn’t connect with my wolf in the same way she could. I could connect to my wolf side, but I lacked the bond a werewolf has with their wolf after they undergo their first phase.While I had been human, I had dreamed of being a werewolf and being able to shift with the others. Every time I watched the pack go out for their pack runs, I had been left alone to observe from afar. Still, it was a dream I would never achieve since my vampire side prevented me from being able to fully connect.Being one-half of two worlds would always put me at odds. Some days I had even wished I was human, just so I could belong so
Hybrid Luna Chapter 16
Neaera-Over the next few days, I managed to avoid Stryker as much as possible. I could feel his eyes on me every time we were around each other but to my relief, he didn’t bother me. It was obvious that he was suspicious of me, which I hoped would go away as long as I didn’t let myself slip up again.There had been a few times he attempted small talk with me, but I managed to make up an excuse that I had something else to do. It wasn’t a complete lie, considering I have been busy trying to find a connection with all the vampire attacks. I have been here for nearly a week and still, there hasn’t been another attack.As bad as it sounded, I kind of wished they would attack. The longer I was here, the more I felt that my secret was going to be revealed. Keeping up with false pretenses for extended periods of time was difficult.It wasn’t just about hiding that I was a Hybrid, it was about hiding that I was once his adopted sister. I no longer viewed him as my brother, yet we did have a
Hybrid Luna Chapter 17
Neaera-With the grace that rivaled that of a vampire, I landed on the ground. Since I didn’t know what direction the vampires were coming from, nor how many, I didn’t have time to worry about revealing that I was a hybrid. Digging my toes in the wet soil beneath me, I pushed forward and started running as fast as I could.I knew Zach and the others could handle themselves, yet from the sound of things, I was going to need to use every ability that I possessed. Forcing all thoughts and feelings away, I allowed my bloodlust to take over. If I had any chance of finding the vampires before they found anyone in this pack, I needed to tap into my vampire side.Having come to terms that I was part vampire, regardless of whether I liked it or not, it was the only thing I had that gave me the upper hand. A burning desire to kill flowed through me. Dropping my mental block, I prepared myself to be bombarded with emotions.Concentrating solely on the emotions that I recognized from the bloodlus

Neaera- Looking into his eyes, I silently pleaded with him to not turn away from me just because I was a freak. I expected him to at least think about whether or not to save me, but to my astonishment, he pressed the inside of his wrist to my mouth. Fresh tears fell from my eyes as I widened my mouth and pierced his flesh with my fangs. The moment I tasted his blood in my mouth, my eyes widened in surprise. Unlike when I tasted Zach’s blood, I felt as if I was connecting with Stryker. It was like his blood was alive and sending light tingles through my body. With every tingle, I could feel myself becoming stronger as my body healed. With the extensiveness of my injuries, I was a little thrown off by how quickly it was working. There was something about his blood that was different. Drinking from Stryker felt more intimate as a feeling of pleasure took over me. It wasn’t sexual, but it did feel good as warmth spread across my body. I heard myself moan as more of his blood filled my

Neaera-His expression didn’t give anything away as he stared at me for a long moment. I didn’t fully understand why I was so anxious about his response, or if he would accept me. Hadn’t I been ready to be done with this mission so I could get as far away from here as possible?Now the idea of leaving again scared me more than anything. Coming face to face with the Vampire King had left me feeling uncertain about everything, including who I was. I would give anything to go back to who I was before meeting Dimitri.“How did this happen?” Stryker asked after a long silence.“I don’t know for sure. After I left here five years ago, I learned that I was a Hybrid. Zach found me while I was in the middle of transition and took me in to help and train me. I am a little different from other hybrids, but I don’t know why. All I do know is one of my parents was a werewolf, while the other a vampire.”“So, you are telling me that you were never a human?” He looked confused now, his eyes diverted
Hybrid Luna Chapter 20
Stryker-Looking between Zach and Nea, I couldn’t help but wonder if their relationship was more than friends. My eyes fell on Zach’s hand, which was holding onto Nea. Seeing another male touch my mate didn’t sit well with me.I couldn’t react to it though, especially since my relationship with her was rocky at best. Not to mention she didn’t know she was my mate. Then there was the fact that I still had to make up for our past.It was going to have to wait until later though because this wasn’t a conversation that Zach needed to be a part of. When he first showed up, I had nearly lost my temper with him. Not because he barged in without gaining permission, but because for the first time since Nea arrived, she had trusted me enough to tell me what was going on.Our conversation had been gaining ground until Zach interrupted us. I still had many more questions to ask, and I thought that we could come to terms with what happened five years ago. Needless to say, we barely scratched the
Hybrid Luna Chapter 21
Stryker-After walking Zach out, Nea turned to face me. “If you don’t mind, I would really like to just lie down. We can talk more later.”As much as I wanted to continue our conversation, the look on her face stopped me from asking her to sit with me a little longer. I just felt like I was so close to fixing the mistakes of our past and building a future with her, yet I was so far. Nodding my head, I agreed to talk with her later.Watching her walk up the stairs, I wanted to follow her and pull her into my arms and promise the world to her. Once she was no longer within my line of sight, I ran my fingers through my hair. Everything was a complete disaster right now and I still haven’t processed everything completely.I meant what I told both Nea and Zach, I didn’t care what she was. She could be a full-blooded vampire and I would still love her as I have always done. Gazing up the stairs, I let out a sigh before turning around to head out the door.Seeing my Beta heading this way, I

Neaera-“Absolutely not.” I looked between Stryker and Mathew in disbelief.They had just finished telling me about Stryker’s idea to relocate the pack until he felt the pack was ready to face the vampires again. He also voiced his thoughts about not doing it, but he wanted to hear my opinion on the matter. Mathew hadn’t said much, but he hadn’t tried talking Stryker out of it.“Even if we start training tonight, there is no telling when another attack will happen. I was just thinking it would buy us a little time to better prepare everyone.” Stryker explained.“Sure, if you want to get everyone killed then go ahead, move them.” I rolled my eyes at him, not bothering to hide my annoyance. “If you move them, they will be in more danger than if they remained here. At least here they know the territory and have the advantage here that they won’t have anywhere else.”Stryker, myself, and Mathew were currently sitting in the living room discussing what to do next. I asked Zach to come, but

Hybrid Luna Chapter 78: Epilogue
Neaera-Once everyone left, it was just Stryker and me, alone. I could feel his eyes on me, but he didn’t utter a word. Avoiding eye contact, I moved past him to go upstairs. It felt good to be back home and what I really wanted to do was take a long hot shower.Entering the bedroom I shared with Stryker, I went directly into the bathroom. I was about to close the door, but Stryker flattened his hand against the door, stopping it from closing. I guess I had been so focused on avoiding him, that I failed to notice he was following me.“Don’t think you are getting off the hook that easy. Things have settled down with everyone and everything else, but you and I still have something to discuss.” His deep voice sounded far too serious for my liking, almost causing me to cower in fear.“I know what you are going to say, and I am sorry. I won’t ever do what I did again.”“Do you know though? I don’t think you do. If you did, you wouldn’t have done it in the first place.”“I do.” I whispered,
Hybrid Luna Chapter 77
Neaera-Slowly I lowered Stryker to the ground, away from Dimitri’s corpse. Cradling him on my lap, I pressed my hand against the gaping hole in his chest. He was alive, but barely. With all the blood that was seeping out of his wound, I wasn’t sure for how long.I could hear his heartbeat getting slower with each beat. His werewolf healing wouldn’t be fast enough, and we were too far away from anyone to help. Tears welled up in my eyes. I was at a loss for what to do.“You can’t leave me.” I sobbed, not caring that I was full fledge crying right now. “I should have been faster.” I added with another sob.A smile spread over his face, and it looked serene. I wanted to yell at him for smiling, but I was only glad to be able to see his smile, even if it was going to be the last time. He opened his mouth to speak, but no sound came out.Leaning forward, I wondered if he had said something, but I hadn’t heard him. I swear if he says some snarky comment, I was going to yell at him. I felt
Hybrid Luna Chapter 76
Neaera-Dimitri went back and forth, each one gaining the upper hand and then losing it. If this kept up, I wasn’t sure how I would manage to keep going. I was throwing everything I had into trying to take him down.There needed to be a change and it needed to happen soon. With no other choice, I focused on blocking and dodging his attacks, so I could reach out to Leo. He hasn’t mentioned any weakness Dimitri has yet, so I doubt I would be able to get any new information.“Leo, please tell me you have something that will help me win against Dimitri.” I connected with him.It was still weird that I could connect with him, even though we were no longer in the same pack. When I decided to the Luna ceremony in Alaska, there had been so much going on that I spaced about losing my connection to Leo. To my surprise, I was still able to connect with him.The Alpha King mentioned that it was possible that even if he hadn’t been a part of the ceremony, our bond was strong enough to carry over.
Hybrid Luna Chapter 75
Neaera-“Why did you want me to meet you here?” I asked Dimitri, after a few seconds.I had no reason to respond to his last statement. I would much rather get down to the bottom of what had changed his mind about meeting with me to talk. I felt like he had alternative motives though, although, I did as well.“What? You don’t like this place? I thought it would add a bit of charm to our meeting.” He looked around with a look of nostalgia on his face.Narrowing my eyes at him, I tried to get a sense of what he was planning. He seemed far too calm and chill for someone who had made it clear that they wanted me to die. I wondered if Leo had gotten into his head at all.That was the only thing I could think of. Of all the hybrids Dimitri had in his possession, Leo was the best at mind games. I talked to Leo this morning, so I didn’t think I needed to worry about him. He hadn’t mentioned anything out of the ordinary.I was tempted to open my link to him, but to do that, I would need to let

Stryker-Now that everyone was gathered near the front entrance, the only one left was Neaera. Glancing at my watch, I frowned at the time. I thought she would have been the first one at the entrance, due to it taking a bit longer than normal to get everyone off.I attempted to link with her, but I felt her mental block in place. The only reason for her to do that is if she was trying to keep me or anyone from connecting with her. I knew instantly that she was either in danger or about to be.“Stubborn woman.” I growled, not realizing until it was too late that I had spoken out loud.“What is it?” Zach asked, who was standing next to me.“Nothing.” I said in a rush.Until I knew what was going on, I didn’t want to alarm anyone. If something was going on, it was probably better to keep it lowkey for now. Knowing her the way I did; she was probably doing this to protect everyone.That in itself was reason enough to not involve anyone. I just wish I knew where to start looking for her. S
Hybrid Luna Chapter 73
Neaera-“What do you want?” I bit off with venom in my voice.“That is no way to talk to your father.” Dimitri laughed and the way he said father seemed as if he had a challenging time choking that word out.“You have never been that to me and you never will. I will ask again, what do you want?”“I just figured we could have a little chat.” Dimitri sighed.“What do we have to talk about? I have heard everything I needed to hear from you.” I tried to keep my voice low just in case someone was walking by. I didn’t want anyone to overhear who I was talking to.“I haven’t told you about your mother or how you were conceived.”That got my attention and as much as I wished I didn’t want to know, I did. Since knowing I was adopted and finding out I was a hybrid, as well as who my father was, I have wanted to know. I still hadn’t heard from Zach whether his test results returned, but I suspected I was his niece.With everything going on, I haven’t had a chance to learn anything about my mothe
Hybrid Luna Chapter 72
Neaera-We spent another couple of days at the resort, enjoying our time while we could. Everything remained relatively calm. The Alpha King stayed just an extra day, but then he had to return to his duties. We didn’t have any more surprise attacks, which was a good thing.Things were starting to fall into place, which was great for everyone. Zach was becoming eager by the minute though. He mentioned how when everything was over, he planned to take a long vacation and spend some quality time with his mate.I didn’t blame him because he was overdue for it. I didn’t understand how he managed to stay away from his mate for so long. Since becoming Stryker’s mate, I couldn’t imagine spending so much time away from him.“Hey.” Speaking of Stryker, he popped his head around the corner, from the bathroom, where he was packing up our stuff while I packed our clothes.“You about done?” I asked, giving him a teasing smile.“I am, but I was going to see if you wanted to take a quick shower with m
Hybrid Luna Chapter 71
Neaera-“What brings you here?” I asked the Alpha King the moment we were seated in the living area of the room that Stryker and I shared.“I had hoped to get here in time before anything happened, but I am sorry I hadn’t been fast enough. I am glad that you are okay though. When I found out that Benson escaped, I decided to follow him to Alaska and deal with him personally.” He was looking at me as he spoke until his attention moved to Stryker.“I am not surprised that you were able to take him out on your own. It just goes to show that some were born to be true Alpha.” The Alpha King added.“I can’t really take the credit. Nea had the situation handled before I got there, I just finished the job.” Stryker turned to smile at me as he reached over and grabbed my hand. “She is the true leader in all of this.”Shaking my head, I rolled my eyes at the pride in his voice. I could give a poor man food and he would think I solved world hunger. I did like how he admired me, but I was embarra
Hybrid Luna Chapter 70
Neaera-It took two days to get everything ready for the ceremony. I was nervous, but I wasn’t at the same time. It was helpful that I had a large support system around me. To think that before everything changed five years ago, I only had my brother to depend on and a few others.Now, I have them and so much more. A part of me wished that Stryker’s parents could be here because I would have loved to show them the woman I have become. I knew they had loved me like their own daughter and for the first time since learning of their death, it hurt knowing that they weren’t here anymore.“Are you ready?” The Alpha King asked through the door.I was in the room I shared with Stryker, but he was already downstairs, making sure everything was ready. The Alpha King was stepping in to make the Luna Ceremony official since we were uniquely going about this. It made me think of a wedding ceremony, that I have seen in movies.I was wearing a white dress, minus the veil, with a tiara covered in dia
