A drink with Ward

I looked up from my desk with my reading glasses securely nestled on the bridge of my nose, while evaluating the new territory threat we had been warned about. It seemed this whole world was going up in a ball of shit and soon every human being alive would be clawing at the very existence of itself.
Groban stood in the doorway of my cabin looking at me in a familiar way I had seen him look at me so many times before as a small boy, each and every time that he had done something and was afraid of what I would do or say he would have that same look upon his face. The thing is there was never a thing that he could do to disappoint me, it just wasn’t in him to do so. I wished sometimes that he had indeed been my biological child with Marina, because as much as I loved my son Dax, he showed the characteristics of a narcissistic psychopath.
He enjoyed killing, and the brutality of this world excited him instead of causing him to flinch away

Hybrid The Gaia symbol
That night the brothers were all gathered together around the great fire for a meeting. I walked behind Groban and sat beside him on a tree stump around the warm fire. I didn’t look up but noticed a lot of unhappy eyes on me, Dax was the first to pass a remark. “Seriously Groban, now you have to bring her to our meetings too. This is strictly for brothers not vermin,” Glaring at him Groban smirked, “Dax, I would gladly leave her in my cabin but, for the life of me I can’t seem to figure out why you can’t stay away from my cabin all of a sudden,” Narrowing his eyes at Groban, Dax scoffed but said nothing. Ward entered the circle and took his place at the head of everyone else, he had two elders on his left and three on his right. Swallowing hard I clenched my jaw. I always kept my eyes down not to let on what I was, if I dared look up I would be dead where I sat, Dax and the brothers would kill me.

The next morning as I stood preparing breakfast there was a knock at the door, I instantly felt a lump in my throat as I gasped, I stared at the door as I clenched my jaw but I didn’t make any advances toward going to open it. Groban wasn’t here and he definitely wouldn’t be knocking anyways. Again there was a knock at the door, sighing I decided to slowly make my way over to it. Don’t be scared Laya, you are a white wolf, you are more terrifying than any human standing on the other side of that door, I kept telling myself. I took a deep breath before finally opening it. Somewhat surprised by who was on the other side my brows furrowed, I saw Ward standing right in front of me staring at me as he smiled softly and nodded at me, “Um- Groban isn’t here,” I said instantly looking down. I still felt terrible for the way I had spoken to him the last time that I had seen him, at the time I didn’t know why but soon after realizing that I was pregnant it all kind of

Groban was lying on the kitchen floor where he collapsed shortly after both ward and I had basically helped to carry him from the front door, my eyes had scanned outside briefly across the snow and there was blood splotches in a path in the white soft snow as he had stammered toward safety. He was covered in blood all over, his chest, his face, down his arms and legs. It looked like he had fought hard against whatever or whomever had attacked him. Ward had him on his back as he ripped at his shirt to see the extent of the damage, and I felt helpless in that moment as I gasped at the sight of all the blood the moment I saw his chest. I felt my body begin to tremble as I wrapped my hands around his one hand, I sobbed as I shushed him saying, “It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s going to be okay,” he groaned as he winced in pain and agony at the sudden contact of Ward as he inspected the wounds more closely, and a part of me wanted to smack Ward away, to stop him from hu

Groban POV When I came too I expected to see Lay right beside me, but she wasn’t. Instead I turned to see Ward sitting on a kitchen chair with his arms slung over his knees gingerly wiping at the dry blood against his hands with a cloth, clearly my dry blood, I thought as my brows furrowed. “How long have I been out?” I mumbled as I slowly sat up to inspect my chest, it had completely healed which wasn’t surprising I suppose. I was a shifter and not just any kind but a lycan prince, but still, the wounds had been so severe I wasn’t quite sure if my body would mean?” “You’re symbols Groban, they began glowing red and the moment Laya placed hers to yours, you’re whole body arched off the ground, you’re veins were glowing red as well and then you’re wounds knitted themselves together at such a speed, none of which I have ever witnessed on you before. Groban, you’re wounds should have killed you,” gulping I started looking around almost frantically

Groban POVI darted through the snow in the direction in the direction of where I knew Laya would have gone, my heart was beating hard in my chest. So many things running through my mind all at once as I kept pushing forward at a rapid pace, I knew I needed to get to her, stop her from going after Demetrius.She doesn’t know what she’s going up against, not even I had known the full extent of what Demetrius was capable of until earlier today.It had happened so fast that I hadn’t had time to prepare, because I had shifted that time in the woods with Laya, it’s been on the back of mind constantly that Dimitrius would be able to know of my existence and there for be able to track me down.And I had been right to be concerned, I had been correct in doing daily perimeter checks and looking for a threat. The problem was, I had never anticipated how calculated and well-orchestrated Demetrius would have been.

Laya POVI followed the trail to where it began in the snow, Groban’s bloody trail grew immensely the further I went. My eyes were completely zeroed in on what I saw in the snow, so much so that I didn’t focus on anything else besides his blood against the whiteness.Suddenly I felt a blow to my head as I hit the ground, bewildered I looked up and all around before finally focusing on an image before me. Swallowing hard I recognized the face I saw before me,“Demetrius,” I said sternly as I glared at him. Smirking he crossed his arms as he stared down at me,“The fact that you know who I am should not surprise me, but tell me little hybrid, how long before that thing growing in your belly comes to be?” I swallowed hard as I furrowed my brows, how did he know I was pregnant, I wasn’t even showing yet, I had a very tiny bump if any.“Wondering how I know huh, oh child, I wasn’t born
Last Updated : 2021-10-18Hybrid My wolf is stronger than the vampire
Laya POV Groban wasn’t talking to me, I could hear him pacing up and down in the cell next to me and I wondered whether or not he would eventually create a trench with the number of times I heard him marching, the velocity of his determination, and frustration was suffocating me with each and every stride. I sat back against the wall with my knees up to my chest, it must have been hours, I couldn’t be certain of time because it was darkened in here and the only source of light came from a few torches which hung on the walls leading toward the way I’m guessing was the only way in and out of this place. It was definitely very medieval that was for sure, and I couldn’t stop myself from wondering about everything that has happened from the moment Groban had taken me from tribe Taulantii… All he ever did was protect me from danger, and how did I repay him, by shoving us both into the most dangerous and perplexing situation ever. Groban was m

Hours had passed and still, no one had come to remove the human from my cell, I called him that now because I didn’t much care for his name. He was nothing more than a puppet to Demetrius and he had tried to seduce the vampire side of me which I hadn’t realized up until this moment, was actually incredibly strong.I didn’t know how we were going to be able to get out of here, but I knew that we had to. Demetrius held power over all things here and it seemed that his reign of dominance was way farther spread than we had ever anticipated it to be, with us stuck in here there was no telling what he would do to us, or try and force us to do.I still couldn’t believe that Demetrius had put a human in my cell who willingly wanted me to feed on him, the thought of it made me feel sick to my stomach.I sat huddled up in the corner of the metal bars where Groban had stuck his arms around to get to me, I hadn’t been able to see his face but j

Hybrid Epilogue
Groban POV "Son, she needs to shift in order to give birth. She's a white wolf and they can't give birth to their pups in their human form if she doesn't shift now she'll die." Crouched down over Laya's body I was wreathing with pain, her pain. It was like I could feel each contraction doubling up on itself as she screamed out in agony. Oh and yes, it seemed Ward was here too, he had gone looking for the Gaians soon after Laya and I had both disappeared. Expecting Demetrius to be behind our disappearance he had risked his life is going to see them because let's face it, they could have easily killed him. After seeing what Rainn was capable of with someone as powerful as Demetrius, a mere human wouldn't stand a chance. "Fuck, I can't take this pain it's embedding itself within my spine. How do we get her to shift if she's incoherent?" Because that's what she was, it was as if she was having an out-of-body experience. She wa
Hybrid A fight to the death
Groban POV The entire forest floor became silent the moment they entered the clearing, Lycans and Vampires alike stopped dead in their tracks as their eyes flew over in the direction of their alluring presence. Even Demetrius and Dagon broke away from one another as they stood staring at the ones dressed in dark cloaks, the moment they all came to a standstill they almost completely surrounded us as they all but completed a circle around us. I was still crouched down covering Laya with my body as I kept my eyes on them, they were big, really big. And they were armed with swords, bows, and arrows. I wondered who they were, what they were here for, the energy radiating off of them though held a kind of calm, peaceful aura that told me that they were definitely not part of Demetrius's wolves. And that's what they were, shifter wolves. Big ass shifter wolves whose eyes were fixed in one direction only- Demetrius.
Hybrid Emerging from the shadows
Groban POV I had to pretend that I was unconscious the entire time because I didn't know exactly what I was being dragged into, I knew by what I was hearing from the guards who were dragging me that I was meant to be sacrificed under something called the blood moon, that he intended on taking Laya, my Laya, as his mate once I was dead. From what I've picked up from listening in on Livia's venting when she assumed me unconscious, was that Demetrius couldn't take over as king until I was completely out of the picture, not really anyway. Because I was the rightful heir to the throne, as long as my father's blood still ran through my veins, Demetrius wouldn't be able to assume the position as king. So that's what all this was for then, getting me out of the way so that he can finally take the title. What I couldn't understand was why he would want Laya as his mate, and then it hit me- she's a white wolf hybrid, that must be why he would wan
Hybrid Till death us do part
Laya POV My legs felt as heavy as lead as I lagged behind the two guards leading the way in front of us, Jake walked slowly behind me with his head down the entire way, he didn't make any attempt to say a word to me and I knew why. He was protecting us, because to the guards and everyone else Jake was nothing more than a meat puppet, a snack for me when the thirst for human blood became too much, little did they know that Jake wasn't all that human anymore. I wasn't sure what he was actually becoming, the fact that he hadn't shifted into a wolf yet or begun thirsting for blood himself made me question everything I thought I knew about being a hybrid. I wanted nothing more than to break free and lose control, aim all of my aggression at the guards in front of me- but what would that help, when in actual fact it's Demetrius and Livia that I'm after. So on we go, each step feeling heavier than the previous one, knowing of what's to come instantly
Hybrid The evil, beyond
Groban POV I can't say for sure how long I've been kept down here in this place of torture, but I can say that time has completely meshed together for me as I drift in out of consciousness. What is the protocol with wolfsbane I wonder as I feel myself fade away again, I've become incredibly familiar with it in these times as I know exactly when I've been injected with it, besides the burning sensation that runs through my veins all the way to the core of my soul, the other thing that makes it stand out to me while I'm semi- unconscious is how it weakens me, how it weakens my wolf to such an extent that it's impossible for me to even open my eyes. The effects are like a serious drug to us shifters, one which would be completely harmless to humans but deadly to us if we happen to overdose on it. As I feel myself slowly lifting from the heavy effects of the wolfsbane I expect to be injected again because that's what's been h
Hybrid The slave of hope
Laya POV"I'm not wearing that thing, so you might as well leave."I spat the words at the timid-looking young girl standing before me a little too harshly, yet at that very moment, I didn't care less about hurting someone's feelings. This whole perplexed situation had spun right out of control, from the moment Demetrius captured us to right here and now.Did he actually think that I would marry him in that dress, that I would just go with whatever sadistic fuckery he has planned for tonight?I would rather die a thousand deaths than let him touch me in that way, ever."Please Miss Laya, she'll kill me if you don't allow me to clothe you in this dress..."My eyes narrowed at her words, the mere fact that that horrific woman would kill someone all because I refused to put on a dress, is all the proof I need that she is far too sick and twisted to be related to Groban, or Groban's mother for that matter.Smir
Hybrid Extermination or maybe?
Laya POV "Stop it, just stop patronizing me like I'm some child and you're the adult alright. I know what all of this means, how could I not. Groban is my mate, I have the children of Gaia's symbol branded against my hand like some goddam reminder that all of this is happening because instead of us going to find them like we were meant to, I ran... I tried to take on Demetrius all by myself in a moment of stupidity, I was so blind by the rage I felt when I saw Groban lying on that floor in our cabin, that I didn't think. And now he's going to pay the ultimate price for that, it's all my fault that he's about to die!" I cry out as I sink to my knees, sobbing bitterly as my hands cup my face shielding my eyes from what's to come as if it would help at all. If I had just listened to my dream back then, the one I had had about the thirteen tribes, the one where clearly Demetrius was the monster and villain of this story. Then maybe we wouldn't be in
Hybrid The blood moon sacrifice
Laya POVI'm unable to think straight anymore, instead, I feel like I'm being strangled to death by the sheer weight of what's to come.In less than a few hours Demetrius will kill Groban, the true heir to the Lycan throne, all so he can finally overthrow the true source of Lycan power and claim it all for himself.He wants to kill my mate and then claim me for himself, I feel like being sick as the onset of nausea swirls around my insides like a tornado of impending doom. Because I have this gnawing feeling scratching at the fear building deep within me, it's telling me that I don't have any real chance at saving Groban from Demetrius. I mean have you seen the beast, he's at least eight feet tall and built like a behemoth.All Jake can do is sit quietly and watch me, he hasn't said a word all day, instead he decided to let me be. Deep down inside I'm eternally grateful that he isn't lecturing me like he did last night, b
Hybrid Countdown to the blood moon
Laya POVTomorrow...It keeps running its race in my head over and over again, I feel like I can't even breathe at this moment anymore.If I was stronger I would be able to get out of here and save Groban, I would have broken down the door standing between us and freedom, and take on any guard standing in my way.But here I sit huddled up in a corner of the room holding onto my knees as they bunch up just under my chin like the scared and pathetic little hybrid girl I used to be, the same pathetic hybrid girl I still clearly am today.I'm so lost in the onset of what's to come tomorrow night, the blood moon, the moment in which Demetrius will kill Groban right in front of me. The moment he will claim me by force as he marks me as his, a Lycan monster so bloodthirsty for control and dominance over all shifters and humanity alike, how did this happen.I'm drowning in a situation beyond my capability of escape and I
