The Hybrid Luna 71
SHADOW “Where are they?” My heart pumped harder as Zack came back alone. “Um.” He swallowed hard. The moment he met me in the eye, I felt something went wrong. “What?” I yelled at Zack. My eyes burned. My chest felt about to explode, like something was clenching my heart. “I’m so sorry, Luna.” He dropped to his knees. “I failed.” “What happened, Zack? Where are they?” “After we left Claire’s house, I stayed to scout. I saw Aciano enter the house. I was reporting, sending them video footage, when the link suddenly cut off. I ran through the woods and found the car Lyon was driving totaled in the middle of the road, and they were nowhere to be found but traces of blood. I searched for them, their bodies, but their scents were lost. It was like someone just put a tree in the middle of the road, and they hit it. I’m so sorry, Luna.” “I can’t believe this is happening!” I screamed and threw my hands in the air. “This is Kain. He betrayed us. How did they know that Califf was going t
The Hybrid Luna 72
CALIFF My nose was healed, but Kain went overboard with the blood on my shirt, my face, and around the wrists. It took us a while to go to his rendezvous by foot, where he parked his car. “This cuff and collar?” “I altered them. It doesn’t have silver, but once we reached his compound, I had to keep it to maintain my cover and put you in a cage. And you have to play along with our charade. Don’t ever break the character.” I snorted. “What could go wrong, right?” “Silver hurts me, too, and gold, that’s why I had to use gloves.” “And what’s with the sunglasses?” “Protection from the cameras. My eyes flare.” “Yeah, right.” I nodded even though the plan was flawed, and there was a great chance Kain would turn against us. “You have to act and make this believable.” “Don’t worry. I got it covered. I was once an undercover for months, so I know how it works.” I looked at the woods. Lyon signaled to find a good spot to scout since he was one of the best I had. The concrete wall bec

SHADOW “Thank you, guys. I really appreciate your help.” “Anytime. And your mate is in trouble,” said Alpha Frye as he joined us with a few enforcers from his pack. “Luna, we got a bit of a situation here.” Kairo came, whispering, “The sheriff is outside the gate.” “Let me handle him,” Waylon said. “No. It’s okay.” I held his arm. “He knows me and Califf. Just give me a minute.” The gate opened, and the sheriff saw me. “Shadow Stone, why am I not surprised?” “What’s going on, Sheriff?” “An SUV registered to your husband is totaled in the middle of the road. There’s a trace of blood in it. Mind if I ask you some questions?” “A rogue member of our pack takes my husband. The missing elder. Do you remember him?” “Yeah, Aciano.” He nodded. “So, how do you know he’s not missing and that he’s involved in your husband’s kidnapping?” “It’s a long story, but I have a man inside, and I don’t think you can write it in your report, Sheriff, but if you wanna help, please come with me.” I

CALIFF Those motherfuckers. They made fun of me, laughing their asses off as one of the humans dumped fuel into the wood piles. The strong, pungent smell hit my nostrils, putting my wolf on edge. I could easily break the collar and chains, but not until the reinforcements arrived. I didn’t want to get shot with silver bullets or burn that would satisfy these bunch of assholes. But when I got the chance, I would be the first to rip their hearts out of their chests. “What are you looking at, dog?” The arrogant son of a bitch glared. He didn’t know what danger he was in, and they were about to get slaughtered. I didn’t realize I was glaring at him. My knuckles turned white, and my jaw locked tight until he nudged me with the muzzle of his hunting gun. “You should go home, kid.” These humans were young in their twenties. They should be working for their future, trying their luck in investments, getting laid, and enjoying parties, not hunting us with guns without thinking of getting k

SHADOW Target acquired. “You’re dead.” One breath out. “No. You are.” I froze. My breathing stuck in my lungs. My heart thundered. “Step away from your weapon. Don’t try to be a hero, bitch. One wrong move, I will not hesitate to kill you.” “How can I move away without moving?” I didn’t have to look. I knew he had a gun pointing at my head. “Don’t be a smartass. Move slowly.” “Okay.” I drew a deep breath, dragged myself away slowly from my weapon, and then raised my hands. “Get up. Get on your feet. Take off the other gun on your thigh and throw it away.” I did as he said. I already heard gunshots. The team managed to get inside the compound without triggering the traps. Casualties and wounded? I had no clue. I prayed everyone would make out alive, or it would be forever in my conscience and carry the pain for the rest of my life. “Walk.” He pushed me hard on my back. “Okay. You don’t have to push me.” I walked forward. My heart pumped so hard. My back tingled. I felt

CALIFF My claws retracted. I still felt the last contraction of Aciano’s heart in my grasp before I threw it out. “Get up, Waylon,” Shadow said as she helped him up. “Appreciate for holding up at the end of the bargain,” I told Kain, still in his cat form. He grumbled before he dashed outside the house. “Are you okay?” I squeezed Shadow’s shoulder. “And you, Dad?” “Yeah.” She looked at my naked body. “Sorry, my things were left where that asshole found me. Your clothes are there.” “It’s fine. I thought I almost lost you again.” I hugged her when my emotions became too much. She sighed in my arms. “I thought I was going to die.” “I’m so sorry, baby.” “Sorry for what? For keeping me in the dark about your plan.” She pulled and looked me in the eye, but I saw humor despite the fact we were still on the battleground. “Everything. Sorry for what I put you through.” She rubbed my arm, smiling sadly. “Go and check out the guys.” I went outside and saw the man who held Shadow hos

SHADOW “That was nice.” I bit my bottom lip the moment the elevator door shut after us. “The unending teasing or dinner?” “How about both?” Pushing Califf against the wall, I pressed my breasts against his chest, and I instantly felt the warmth, and he was hard everywhere. My nipples were hard and aching, and my toes curled. Unable to keep my hands to myself, I placed one hand on his chest and the other on his groin, making him chuckle. “You know how many times I thought of ripping this dress off your body?” He leaned into me and looked down at my cleavage through the deep plunge of my black dress. “You’re fucking hot, and giving me a constant hard-on all night was a bad bad idea.” It was a fair warning. His gray eyes glinted dangerously. He was right— he was all hardness. His erection was growing hard as I rubbed it through his pants. “Is that so?” “Baby, stop teasing me.” His breath brushed my face until a low growl rumbled in his chest. He slid his arm behind my bare back,

CALIFF “The boy is telling the truth.” Zack leaned against the opened window of the car. “I just dropped the medical supplies to their apartment. Two small bedrooms, not a good neighborhood.” “Is he here?” Zack tipped his head. “Yes. He’s working eight hours. Later, a dish-pig at the diner.” “Thank you.” “I’m thirsty.” Shadow had already got out of the car. “His mother was surprised, and she said thank you.” He pulled the door open for me. “She raised a good son and would do anything for his mother, even risking his life.” I got out and buttoned my suit. “What’s your plan with the boy?” He kept saying boy when August was an adult. “He’s twenty, Zack.” I entered the convenience store. “Well—” “Fill the tank, will you? And don’t worry, he’s human, and you’re a werewolf.” Zack just stared at me. I knew he had a special place in Shadow’s heart, and he might just scared of the undivided attention we were giving him. I looked around, and I didn’t find August. “He’s over there.

The Hybrid Luna Epilogue
CALIFF One year later “Are you okay in there?” I knocked on the bathroom door when my hearing couldn’t grasp Shadow. “Just a minute.” “Since when did we lock doors, baby?” A growl of frustration escaped her throat as the toilet flushed. “I said just a minute.” When the door unlocked, she was wearing a deep frown on her face. “I’m sorry, but I promised you a romantic getaway, and Zarah would be pissed if we wouldn’t be late when the portal appears.” A sigh rolled over her lips as she fixed her summer dress. “You’re fussing over your outfit? You can wear a shirt and shorts, baby. Look at me.” I gestured at my jeans and shirt, but I had a feeling she was upset over something. My life couldn’t be any more perfect. Our pack had been peaceful, and I had almost two hundred werewolves in my protection. My allies were everywhere. My relationships with lycan and witches were strong. Kain’s pack of werecats and I became friends. Shadow and I worked tirelessly to keep the peace and
The Hybrid Luna 85
SHADOW After eight months, Califf and I just moved into our new house. We finally got our own home and privacy, but of course, these guys were my family, and our home was always open for them. I watched Kindra and Duke’s twins rolling over the grass from the patio. Sometimes, I felt a pang of jealousy in my chest that one thing was missing in our lives— kids. Now, the pack had been peaceful for more months. I’d been ready to have kids of our own, but every time we planned, it got interrupted. “You will have your own. Just work hard on it.” I rolled my eyes at Raven. “Shut up, will you?” “A little prince and princess playing with their kids would be nice.” “I can’t hear you.” “Oh, our mate just arrived.” She was right. Califf just pulled off the driveway. August opened the door for him. “Take the car. I don’t need it, and I will use the SUV if I want to go out.” “Are you sure?” August asked. He gained some muscles and color on his cheeks. If I noticed it right, he became more

CALIFF Surprised, we stopped in the middle when Everlee yelped as Calder carried her and spun her around. “I think she just said yes.” I smiled as I looked at them. “I thought she said it already. She’s been wearing the ring for a week now.” “No, baby. She wore it but hasn’t said yes.” “Finally. I can’t wait to attend another wedding.” “Guys.” Kain caught our attention. “Hey. You’re leaving?” Shadow asked as she noticed Kain looked ready to sneak out. “Yeah. I have to catch my flight in the morning. Your father found a pack of werecats in Hawaii, but I’ll visit soon.” “What about your other job?” I was referring to his Obsidian duties. “I took a vacation.” “Well, don’t be a stranger. And take care, Kain.” *** We barely made it inside the bedroom. Considering she wore a lot of things like a corset and stockings, it took us minutes to get rid of her clothes before she was bare-naked before me. “Spread your legs apart,” I said, throwing the last sock on the floor. My ja

CALIFF “God, this is ridiculous. Is this really necessary? I’d rather wear an oversized suit than this.” It wouldn’t be Shadow without complaining of her beautiful floor-length white gown and silver-white hair in a halo braid. “Leave us,” I ordered the staff of five women, making her beautiful. She didn’t need them. Shadow was already gorgeous. “Yes. Your father said it is.” “I missed my hair.” She touched her locks, still complaining, turning silver-white when she became Lycan and hybrid again. Getting her wolf back was one of the highlights of the night, but even Zarah couldn’t explain the changes in Shadow’s hair color. “I like this more. You look like a goddess.” “You’re just saying that because you love me.” I groaned. “I love you, baby, but I swear you’re beautiful in this color. It pops out the color of your eyes. I’m pretty sure Raven would agree.” “I look like Elsa, Califf.” That one made me chuckle. “So you’re on team Anna?” “Shut up. You’re not funny.” “I like

SHADOW “Hey. Are you okay?” Califf wrapped the robe around me as I had just come back from the run. Duke and Kindra rushed to us. They were still wearing the shocked look on their faces. “What just happened?” She looked at me from head to toe. Then she touched my hair. “You get your hair colored while going for a run?” What do you mean?” I touched and checked my hair. I had the same reaction as her. “What’s going on with me?” I looked at Califf, then to Duke and Kindra. “I will call Zarah,” Califf said. “Let’s go to the pack house and get you cleaned up. “Guys.” I felt so bad for them. “I’m so sorry I ruined your party.” “Are you kidding me?” Duke was even happy and relieved. “If I’d known that the party is one way to get your wolf back, I should have thrown a party months ago.” “Yeah. The party is almost over anyway, and it was a blast.” Kindra hugged me. “I’m glad you’re fine. Go and get changed. I’ll see you soon.” “Thanks.” Califf and I left for the pack house. He hadn’t

SHADOW “Fuck.” He grunted out a curse as he held my hips steady, thrusting his rigid cock deep inside me. I mewled as I felt helpless above him, watching him devouring in his own desire. The familiar pleasure rippled through my core in fast urges. My inner muscles clamped around him, making him groan loudly. I rode his cock, preparing to come undone around him. My senses soared, overwhelmed by how much he made me feel so good. “Califf, don’t stop!” I threw my head back. My eyes popped open, staring at the ceiling as the intensity of my pleasure became too much. “Fucking good,” he said through gritted teeth as he sped up his plunge. Each thrust sent me to my own euphoria. One moment I was writhing in pleasure as his hands cupped my breasts, pinching my nipples, his hand traveling down my abdomen, his finger massaging my clit as he pumped faster and harder. My body shuddered in sweet surrender. “Look at me as you come.” His command was my undoing as he continued pounding. “Yes!

CALIFF “Hey. Where have you been?” I held her hand as she leaned down to kiss me. Most of our enforcers came to join me for breakfast, which was a fantastic morning. “I was with Zarah and Kain.” She took a seat to my left and rubbed Kindra’s growing baby bump. “How’re the babies?” “Healthy, and they make me eat a lot.” Kindra’s reply made me smile. “I can’t wait for this Saturday. I will help prepare the picnic.” “You don’t have to do that.” Kindra smiled shyly. “You have the whole pack you help you, Kindra, and I don’t take no for an answer.” “Thank you. And I invited Calder and Everlee.” “The more, the merrier.” Shadow squeezed her hand. “Don’t stress it out. Show us what you like, and we will make it possible.” After breakfast, Shadow went up while I checked the progress of the house. When I got back into our room, she was staring at the dirt on the sheet, which I didn’t even notice was there. “I sleepwalked, and I don’t remember how it happened.” “Are you sure?” I came
The Hybrid Luna 79
SHADOW I woke up from a vague dream of walking to the cliff. That was the only thing I remembered. I got up from bed only to see my feet were dirty with mud. I also saw traces of dirt on the sheets. My heart pounded. Did I sleepwalk? It was only four in the morning. I cleaned my feet and texted Zarah. She would hate me to disturb her sleep at this time, but it was a kind of emergency. While changing into jeans and a shirt, I checked Califf, but he was still sleeping. I got out of our room, and the portal was already there. “What the hell is wrong with all of you?” I was met by the mad bull Zarah. “All?” “Yeah.” She walked away from me. “Your father just left for a business meeting.” “You don’t even wanna know what’s the emergency.” I followed her to the kitchen. “I take it you would tell me,” she said as she filled the kettle with water. Then she put it over the fire. “I think I’m sick.” I opened her drawers to check if she had a silver cutlery. I wanted to test the theory I
