The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 50:She told me you were dead
Layla stared blankly at Annabelle after her confession. The words echoed dully in her muddled mind.'I am your mother'Was this a joke?, she asked herself. Was this woman trying to fool her by claiming to be her mother? As far as Layla knew, her mother was dead. Madame Parker had screamed it into her head all the years she spent as a slave. Countless times she was told, how she was born from rape and how she took her mother's life at birth. With the way Madame Parker engraved it in her, she had believed every word, cursing and blaming herself for killing her mother at birth.Could it have been a lie? Could it be that all these years, Madame Parker had been spurting lies? Could it be that her mother never died?But if Madame Parker had been lying all these years, and this beautiful woman before her was truly her mother, then why had she been abandoned? Why had she been left at the mercy of Madame Parker? A thousand and one question took root in her mind and flourished into more questio
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 51:I will never let you go
Riven stood by the window of his study room, staring at nothing in particular. He was deep in thought and obviously not in a good mood. Layla's tender voice resounded in his ears.'I killed myself'He fisted his hands in anger, thinking back to what Layla told him. If it hadn't been fate or the moon goddess being on his side, he would never have found his mate. Ever. She had taken her own life by jumping into the ocean, all to escape the cruelty she was subjected to.He understood now why she had such vicious whip marks marring her perfect body;and why she turned mute. Abusiveness from a very tender age was too severe for Layla and she had turned silent, having no one to help her.And Annabelle thought she could just come and take his mate away, and he would just agree? She was the cause of Layla's suffering. And despite the fact that she was Layla's mother and she gave Layla away so she would be safe, he would never let her take his mate away. He didn't buy the crap she was sprouting
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 52:Betrayed
The next few days in the mansion was extremely quiet and uneventful. Riven kept Layla company every passing second, never leaving her side and placing Cade in charge of all the meetings with the Ancient Shifters. He made it clear to everyone that he wouldn't tolerate being disturbed when he was with his mate. Even Annabelle wasn't left out.During these days of peace and quiet, Annabelle didn't get a chance to speak much with Layla. Each time she brought up the issue about taking Layla away to the human world, Riven would always shut her down, adamantly refusing to let Layla go with her. It annoyed her immensely, making her loath the mate bond between them. It made her remember a certain hybrid creature.If she didn't find a private moment with Layla, she wouldn't been able to give her the apple and carry out her plans. Call her selfish and unreasonable, but she kept assuring herself that she was doing it for her daughter's protection. Layla had to be hidden from the supernatural real
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 53:She's going to take my mate away
"I declare to you that a woman must not depend on the protection of her man, but must be taught to protect herself..." Susan B. Anthony...Tied in thick chains at the end of the ancient temple was a female dragon, looking enraged, jaw clenched hard and nostrils flaring. The chains restrained her with difficulty, despite the shackles around her wrist and ankles. The remains of a tattered dress clung to her body, hanging in loose pieces. Her dark hair, looking disheveled and matted, framed her round face and fell over her eyes that were currently glaring at the five figures standing before her.Riven stood with Cade and the ancient shifters in the temple, staring down at the female dragon shifter with an indifferent expression."The warriors found her hidden at the far end of the island",Ren said to him with her eyes trained on the chained creature. "What part?",Riven asked quietly."The part where the dragon shifters were banished to",Ren said and looked over to Riven. "She

Layla felt her consciousness slowly return to her. She tried to open her eyes but the lids felt so heavy that she gave up. Her body felt weak, boneless and weak. Behind her closed eyelids, she could feel the brightness of the sun on her face. She could hear the sound of the sea as the waves crashed against the shore. She heard the cheerful cries of birds and she finally felt her body lowered to the ground.Where was she? And where was Riven?Pieces of memories came back to her and she gasped in realization. Her mother did this to her. Her mother betrayed her."Mother...",she whispered.Annabelle looked down at her daughter and a painful look flashed across her eyes. She caressed Layla's cheek gently, hating what she was doing but doing it all the same."I'm sorry honey. But I have to do this",she said softly. "I'm doing this to protect you""Please don't...",Layla whispered and a tear drop slid down the corner of her eyes. "Don't take me away from Riven..."Annabelle turned away from

'And I need you. Not in ways to survive, but in the ways that make life worth living' JmStorm, PinterestRiven tore through the forest in blind speed, heading towards the shore. The more he ran, the more the mate bond he shared with Layla thinned out the more. He could barely feel her, and it made him go mad with worry and rage. The few precious moments he had shared with Layla began to flash through his mind.The day he saw her in the ocean, looking so pale and deathly. The time he showed her his wolf. The way she smiled, lighting up his soul like a thousand lit torches. The feeling of peace that came over him when she was in his arms. If Layla was taken from him, it would be the end of his immortal life because he couldn't live without her anymore.He arrived at the shores and shifted smoothly into his human form. The shores were empty. He was too late. Annabelle was gone with his mate.He wasn't about to give up though, not when it concerned Layla. He stared into the em
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 56:She's a Tribrid
Riven snapped his eyes open and looked towards Henrietta who was holding hands with him. Her plan had worked;they were able to link a mind connection with Layla even with the distance of the ocean. But the connection had lasted for while, making him unable to tell Layla what he had in mind."The link is gone",he said to Henrietta with a deep frown. Worry was etched into the fine lines of his face and he was on the verge of losing his mind. His blood red eyes looked maddening and furious and his temper was held back on a tight leash.Henrietta opened her eyes as Riven's hands left hers. Her face was sheet white with the amount of energy she had used in linking the mind connection."Did...you tell her...?",she asked breathlessly."I couldn't. The link snapped",Riven turned towards the raging ocean. "I have to go in",he said in an emotionless voice that had no room for argument."No Riven you can't...""Don't try to stop me Henrietta!",Riven snapped angrily. "If Annabelle takes my mate t
The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate 57:Abominable Creature
The atmosphere around the large dining hall was tense and thick with malice. Furious eyes were trained on Annabelle who stood with her head high at the end of the table. Her hands were clasped behind her, her damp hair trailing down her back and she had changed into dry clothes. She looked towards Layla who sat beside Riven at the head of the table and her heart felt heavier with sadness.Ever since Layla arrived at the dining hall beside Riven, she hadn't raised her head to look towards her. Annabelle didn't blame her;right now she was sure that she was the worst person to Layla.After coming back to the mansion, Riven had taken Layla straight to his room to change her wet clothes and dry her hair. No words were spoken between them. Layla just let him take care of her while she basked in the warmth of his embrace. Even when Henrietta tried to bring up a conversation about Layla being a Tribrid, Riven cut her short with a crisp order."Not now Henrietta"Now he sat at the head of the

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
