The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 178:Layla's death
Ren jerked awake at the loud clap of thunder. It shook the earth and the sky was lit brightly with lightening. It would rain soon. They needed to find a better place to rest for the night.Her eyes darted around the camp and fell on the space where Layla had been sleeping.The spot was empty. The blanket lay on the ground like she had flung them away from her.In panic, she flew off the ground and dashed towards Cade."Cade!",she screamed.Cade came awake instantly, his claws emerging to fight off whatever threat was around. He looked around the camp site but didn't feel the slightest sign of danger.His eyes fell on Ren and he hurried to meet her halfway. Caleb had woken up too and he wondered what was happening."Ren what is...""It's Layla! She's gone!",Ren screamed.Cade whipped around and his eyes fell on the blanket Layla had laid on to sleep. She wasn't there. "Where is she?",he yelled."I don't know",Ren shouted in a shaky voice. "I told you I had a bad feeling about this"Cal
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 179:Transformation
Riven held Layla's cold and lifeless body carefully as he hurried down the steps. The awakening would have to be done there in the cave because it would take days before they got back to the mansion. And it would be too late for Layla by then.Henrietta hurried after him as they rushed down the stairs. Flashes of lightening brightened the dark cave, as if the sky was furious over the death of Layla.Cade, Caleb and Ren followed behind silently with their heads hung low. They knew the punishment waiting for them would be severe.Henrietta raced towards the side of the mountain and spread her arms before her. She muttered a spell and her blue eyes gleamed for a moment before the earth began to tremble. Part of the earth broke out and emerged a few feet from the ground."Lay her on the altar Riven",she said hastily.Riven carefully lay Layla on top the altar Henrietta had conjured up and he knelt by it, holding her cold hands in his. She was so cold. So still."We must hurry",Henrietta
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 180:Henrietta's betrayal
At a point, Layla was slowly coming awake. Her eyelashes fluttered weakly as she struggled to open her eyes.Suddenly she felt a prick on her chest. The pain became unbearable as something sharp sliced into her heart. A silent cry escaped her lips as the pain intensified. She felt the warm rush of blood crawl down her chest. Slowly the pain faded as she healed up instantly.Her eyelids opened a crack, and she saw someone's hand. Then a flash of coloured hair. Then everything went dark as she lost consciousness....A month had gone past since Riven went missing and the ruling of the island was left in the care of Xerxes.Although Xerxes was a powerful ancient shifter who was respected by many of the shifters on the island, the alphas of the other packs demanded to see Riven.As the Supreme Alpha and Alpha King, Riven's presence was extremely important. The fact that he left for weeks without a word stirred up dissatisfaction from the other alphas and they began to see Riven as an un
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 181:Thirst for revenge
Centuries ago.During the reign of Alpha King Janus, Riven's father....Henrietta watched as her husband walked away from their home, leaving with the sorceress and the shifter. She had a bad premonition about their journey, and she wished she could go with them.But Emrys was too protective of her. She could do nothing except watch as he and the other travellers disappeared from sight.Sighing heavily, she closed the door.A day passed.Two days passed.An entire week went past, and Emrys didn't return.Henrietta became worried. Their journey was supposed to take about three days, four if they encountered any difficulty. It was more than a week and she began to fear the worse. Something must have happened to him. The bad feeling she felt the day he left made her restless and uncomfortable. A part of her wanted to leave the safety of their home and search for him.But she hesitated. She couldn't enter the realm where they were headed. She wasn't a wizard.She stayed a few more days,
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 182:Hate me for hurting you
Riven opened his eyes when he heard that soft voice he had been longing to hear. He looked down at Layla's face, his face a few inches from hers. It felt magical when Layla's eyelashes fluttered softly and then her eyes opened.Her eyes were no longer gray. They were a deep shade of red, beautiful and alluring.Layla blinked a few times to clear her blurred vision and adjust her eyes to the dimness of the room. She stared up at Riven and her lips lifted slightly in a pleased smile.Riven felt like his soul had just returned to his body and he had been given a second chance to live."I missed you Riven",she said softly again. The sound of her voice caressed his ears like the sweetest music. How long had he yearned to hear her voice?In a daze, Riven lifted his hand and touched her face in a loving caress, afraid that it was his imagination to see Layla awake. He was terrified that if he moved away from her or blinked, she would be back in her unconscious state, unable to talk like she
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 183:A sad love story
The next morning, Layla was feeling much better. Her neck still felt slightly sore because of the wound and also because she had been on bed for weeks. Annabelle helped her take a warm bath and the bandage on her neck was changed. The wound was almost closed now, but to everyone's surprise, it was totally different. Unlike the golden intricate designs that had taken form on her skin, this time the image of a golden lycan appeared beside it. It was unlike anything they had ever seen, and they knew without a doubt that it was Riven's beast. "I've never seen anything like it",Annabelle touched the mark slightly with awe. At the back of her mind, she thought back to a certain hybrid wolf whom she once fell in love with. Riftan must have marked his mate long ago, she thought.Her eyes refocused when she felt Layla's wet finger on her cheek."I'm fine darling",Annabelle smiled softly at her and gently washed Layla's body."Are you thinking of father?",Layla asked with a worried frown cre

"Andromeda fell in love with a lycan, but their love wasn't meant to be because she abused the powers she had",Layla continued. "She traveled to another era and that was where she met the lycan. Long story short, they fell in love with each other. But the Moon Goddess frowned at their relationship and told Andromeda to return to her own time. They couldn't be together because her presence in that realm would cause disaster for the realm"Layla swallowed before she continued. "Andromeda travelled back to her current time, but the lycan was dead in that era."Riven and the others all listened to her with rapt attention."Devastated at the death of the man she loved, Andromeda placed a curse on her lineage",Layla continued in a small voice. "She didn't want her kind to suffer the pain of falling in love with a lycan and not being able to be with him. So she placed a curse, that the next Time Sorceress would never cross paths with a lycan. And then she stored her powers in her Book Of Shad

The human realm, Kingdom Of Northville....The sun slowly rose from the eastern horizon and brightened the magnificent city of Northville, welcoming its citizens to a brand new day.At the edge of the kingdom, hidden among the wild flowers and surrounded by the forest of the willows was a fancy cottage.The front door of the cottage swung open and a white haired young woman stepped outside, holding a basket of grains."Kalista, don't forget to feed the chickens",a female voice called from within the cottage."Yes, mother",Kalista responded and twirled her way towards the metal cage behind the cottage. She hummed to herself along the way, holding up her dress and skipping lightly."Good morning, my little feathered friends",she smiled warmly as she got to the cage and crouched before it. The chickens squawked in anticipation for their morning meal, and Kalista carefully tipped the basket she held and poured out the grains into the feeder."Don't rush, there's enough for everyone",she

Six years later....Riven's mansion was filled with the sound of celebration and decorated with Christmas lights. Outside, it was blazing cold and snowing hard but inside the house, it was warm and cozy as a low fire burned in the chimney.There was a large Christmas tree in the middle of the living room, decorative lights twinkling like a thousand jewels. Beneath the tree, there were dozens of presents, boxes wrapped in fancy wrappings.It was Christmas.Six year old Xavier and Cade raced around the large living room, laughing happily as they were being chased my Clarissa, Caleb's three year old daughter.

Three years later....Riven sprinted through the large halls of his huge mansion, racing towards his room at the top floor with a woman behind him.She was a doctor, a shifter who didn't want to belong to any pack, and prefered to live on her own. She had volunteered to help Layla in her delivery for a handsome fee.She was just a young werewolf, only two hundred years old with no sign of her mate yet."Alpha slow down",she chuckled behind him as she rushed towards the room where the Luna was waiting. "We still have a few more hours before the baby comes""The contractions are getting unbearable",Riven said over his shoulder but didn't reduce his hurried steps. In a panicked mode, he sent a mind link to his mate.[My love, hold on. The doctor is on her way to you][Oh Riven, hurry. I'm so terrified], Layla's reply made the beast in him more frantic and he flew up the remaining flight of stairs.He shoved the door open and hurried to the side of the bed where Layla was.Layla was sitt
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 245:The End
Riven felt suddenly whole. He shut his eyes, forgetting everything else and focusing on the feeling of Layla's soft body close to him. His arms tightened around her, one hand reaching up to caress her hair. The scent of apples and roses, the scent he had grown so used to, flooded his senses and made him dizzy from relief. All of a sudden, everything seemed alright. All the years he had been wallowing in anguish and guilt sudden disappeared. It didn't matter anymore as long as his mate was in his arms."Layla",he whispered in her ear, burying his nose in the crook of her shoulder and breathing in her scent. The unique scent that belonged to only her. "Is it really you?""Yes, Riven",Layla whispered back to him, tears rolling down her cheeks when she answered him. "I came back to you, my love"The feeling was surreal and it still felt like a dream to him. Only the sparks of the mate bond and the softness of her body made him believe it was actual reality.He was really holding his ma

Xavier felt his breath bust out of his mouth. It was only then that he realized he had been holding it. Selene, the Moon Goddess was right in front of him?Without another word, he bowed his head to the ground, trembling from awe and immense respect. For the Moon Goddess herself to appear to him was something he couldn't fathom. He wasn't worth it. He wasn't worth to be in her presence.His lips trembled as he bowed his head repeatedly before Selene."Rise, Xavier",Selene continued in a soothing voice, the hint of an amused smile playing around her perfect lips.However, Xavier shook his head and remained on the ground before her."I know you're wondering why I have appeared to you",the Moon Goddess said. "You helped the lycanthropes defeat the war, even when you were part of the reason for the war in the first place"Xavier trembled from shame when he heard the goddess. He had indeed been a part of the cause. He had made a deal with the devil and deceived Layla just because he want
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 242:After the war
A week later...A week had flown by since the bloody battle with the devils and the demons of hell. The spot where the battle took place in Red River City was scorched and blackened badly and would forever be a reminder to people, both humans and supernatural creatures, of the day the devils almost took over the world.The desert creatures had exchanged polite words with Riven, congratulating each other for their victorious battle. And when the sultan tried to offer his condolences on Layla's death, Riven declined and wished them safely back to their realm.Left with nothing else to say, the sultan nodded respectfully to Riven and he disappeared with his surviving army. The surviving minotaurs returned to their realms while every other creature that had contributed to the victory of the war with the devils returned to their respective realms, leaving only the lycanthropes in Red River City.The City was in ruins. The dead bodies were piled in different sections and burned. The entire

Layla stepped out of the shield of energy into the burning red flames. She waved her hand and the shield thickened, keeping Riven and the other creatures within. The flames didn't harm her, as her magic was joined with the spirit beast.When Riven tried to hurry out after her, he felt his body bounce against the shield of energy. He was trapped within.His eyes widened as realization dawned on him."Layla",he called out to her through the shield. "Riven... it is time",Layla said in a sad tone. Tears slowly spilled down her eyes as she gazed lovingly at her mate. "I want to make this easy for you but I don't know how...""Please, my love. It can't end like this",Riven pleaded in a shaky voice. He didn't know when tears gathered in his eyes and spilled down his cheek. For the first time since he lost his sister, he cried. "Don't do this, please. Don't leave me. We can end this together"Layla felt her heart shatter all over again when she witnessed the way her mate begged her like his
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 240:Goodbye Riven, I love you
Hades let out a terrifying scream and stumbled backwards. Black smoke seeped out from the cracks on his face as Layla's blood burned him. He swiped at his face, his sharp claws ripping the skin apart as he struggled to wipe the blood away from his face. This same pain also visited the other six devils as they wailed eeriely, their faces melting off from the contact of Layla's blood."I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!",Hades bellowed at Layla in a fit of scorching rage. The devil had wanted Layla's blood to curse her with blood magic but in the end, Layla had beaten him at his own game.The spell the devil had placed over the lycanthropes and the remaining creatures was broken and they could move again. They succeeded in destroying the remaining demons and pushing the rest into the crater of flames.
