The Hybrid of Lost River Early Morning Coffee
CalypsoWaking up feeling the feeling of dread hit me in the chest as soon as my feet touch the ground. It is 4:45 in the morning, I had my father get me Letha's number, and I text her knowing she is probably still sleeping. So instead of waiting, I type out a message to her.Thinking about stopping by this morning, I cannot sleep. Letha: I cannot either; meet at your house in 30? See you there!Well, that was unexpected, but I feel better knowing that I get to talk to someone about all this craziness that is going on. I dress quickly because it will take around 15 minutes to get there. I could figure out how to get the coffee machine working in time for her to appear.I used my speed to my advantage and reached my house in record time. The light was already on, so I knew Letha beat me to it. I hope she knew me well enough to make coffee already this morning. Whom am I kidding? That woman was amazing; she made coffee, I have no doubt.I walk inside, admiring the space, even though i
The Hybrid of Lost River New Calypso
CalypsoReid sat in my house as he brought a compelled hair stylist to the cabin. When did I start thinking this house was mine? He looked confused but sat quietly and watched as my white blonde hair fell to the floor. My father was speaking to the coven, and he didn't want me to be alone, so he sent Reid to watch me. I told him I needed a haircut and no questions asked, and they showed up here. But, again, he sat silently, watching me closely for reasons I couldn't help but wonder what they were."So why are you cutting your hair?" He questioned, finally at least asking one of the many questions that I am sure were on his mind. One of his dark eyebrows raised as he asked the question; he was so handsome in a dashing way. I read way too many shirt-tearing romance novels growing up clearly.Rolling my eyes at him, I was not annoyed with him but with my situation. "I can't stand the person who cut it and want nothing that she has created on me," I say bitterly, feeling like a pathetic g
The Hybrid of Lost River Sobering up
AtlasI have been drunk for two days. Being no help to my entire pack, I was the Alpha for crying out loud, and I couldn't manage to care enough to lead. I was sleeping on the couch when suddenly I woke just now from Liam and Letha, who stuck me under the cold spray of the shower. I feel like my soul left my body when the water started pelting my body. I sat up like I was ODing, and someone stuck adrenalin in my heart.I shoot them a glare, "what the fuck?" I yell at them both, reaching for the faucet handle and struggling to get the damn thing turned off.Letha turns and looks at Liam, "I got it from here if you want to go. I will call you after." She says as she throws a towel at my head.She puts a set of clothes on the vanity and a cup of coffee on the tub's edge. "Finish that, get dressed, and we will have a sit-down talk.""I am a grown-ass man, Letha! Let me alone. I can handle it myself!" I shout at her, not wanting to admit that she is right. I was an alpha that needed to be
The Hybrid of Lost River Discovery of Witch Jewelry
CalypsoIt's my third day of vampire 101, as I started calling it. My father trained me in compulsion for the first two days, and I wasn't a fan at all. I vowed I would only use it in a life-or-death situation. I hated taking someone's free will away from them. It felt wrong. So today was my first day of training with Reid.I don't know why I was a little nervous and gitty. I was feeling weird about it. After he looked at me with heat in his eyes, other than Altas, nobody had ever looked at me like I was worth something. Although, I liked the feeling. Yes, Atlas was my mate, but it couldn't hurt to flirt a little and win some self-confidence. If anyone needed a confidence boost right now, it was me.I get outside the door to the cabin, and Reid is standing outside the door. He is standing basking in the sun wearing jogging sweatpants and shirtless. Nobody should be this attractive; I think I had to hold my drool just now from the visual. He smirks at me like he knows he is hot shit, a
The Hybrid of Lost River Wine and Weirdness
CalypsoI had been here for a week, and my father decided to have dinner with my father, the whole dynamic between us felt odd. I was optimistic, but at the same time, I couldn't put my finger on what felt off about the entire situation. Speaking to Reid on the whole matter, he would always quickly change the subject. I couldn't help but be slightly annoyed by the entire thing. The feeling I felt made me almost twitchy, and not having anyone to confide in made it worse.I quickly considered Reid, a friend. It might be foolish to do so. We spent most of our days in the late evening together. I knew he was on the council; I figured he would have more important things to do than to be training and babysitting me. At the same time, I felt this weird pull towards him, I wondered if he felt that same way about me, but I was too scared to bring it up.Many people weren't that nice to me in my lifetime, and I didn't want to scare one of the only ones I had off. Plus, the whole thing with Atla
The Hybrid of Lost River A Night of Firsts
CalypsoI don't think I will let my father make drinks for me ever again. I don't hate what I feel, but I wouldn't say I like it either. I am buzzed drunk, I think, all the while wishing I had eaten dinner instead of drinking. I sit up suddenly, remembering Reid was supposed to bring dinner over. "Did you bring dinner?" I yell, again forgetting that yelling doesn't need to be done. But I wasn't sure if they were outside or someplace else. Of course, I might have fallen asleep for a few minutes and didn't remember."And your back," Reid said, smiling at me from the end of the couch. "First time drinking vampire wine?" He questioned, tilting his head as he l approached me with heat in his eyes and a mixture of concern. He helped me into a sitting position pulling me up and kneeling before me. He stroked my face before saying, "Come on, little one, let's get you fed." Instead of helping me up to my feet, he scooped me up as if I weighed nothing and carried me into the kitchen. I began
The Hybrid of Lost River Sting of Betrayal
CalypsoHow is this happening? Somehow, I can now feel Reid's panic and could feel it seeping into my soul. Yet, despite my fear, I still felt compelled to comfort him. Confusion was apparent as he tried his best to regain his composure. The man pacing before me always had it together: years of living and training to expect the unexpected. "Reid, what is going on?" I exhale, not wanting to make him panic more and trying to redirect the focus."I do not know, honestly. I attempted to talk about virginity in the vampire world... however, you took matters into your own hands. It's supposed to create a need for closeness between two people for a while. I don't plan on being far from you, but I wanted you to know.""Yeah, I don't think that's what this is." I straddle his lap, seeing the bite I took out of him earlier was still there. I run my fingers down his neck before touching my finger to the wound. It was less fresh looking and looked more like a scar. "I didn't think you could scar?
The Hybrid of Lost River Doctor's Visit
AtlasCalypso has been gone for more than a week now. Still, I wasn't doing very well. I wasn't drunk anymore, so I called that a win. Discussions with Letha really helped me get my priorities straight. The appointment with the packs' midwife got pushed back because twins were born that day. Today was the day the appointment got moved to.I waited impatiently as Elsa fiddled with the ends of her blonde hair in the small clinic. The chairs were squeezing my sides too tightly, and it was uncomfortable. I have thought about jumping up and smashing the clock on the wall from the ticking. I was on edge today, and everything set me off. It didn't help that the woman next to me wasn't the woman I wanted to be here with.My wolf hated her completely, and I wasn't sure what to make of this. He had hated no one before, not like this rage he was causing me to feel. I felt myself grip the armrest super tight and could feel the wood give under my fingertips. Elsa takes her hand and tries to comfor

The Hybrid of Lost River New Allies
AtlasMy hands smack the table, and I barely hold back my temper. My wolf rises to the surface, and I hold him back. “Are you kidding me? There are protocols that need to be followed.” I stand up while looking down at Calypso and grab her hands in mine. “We need to go come back after the time of mourning is done and the new alpha ceremony has taken place.”“No!” her mother cries, not wanting us to leave when there is so much left to say. “You’re already here. A few hours will make no difference. I knew this would happen if we told you in the first place. What are the odds that the day you reach out, the day he dies?”I shake my head. The alpha in me is raging. “You know it’s not right, but I can’t help to think that it’s a little too coincidental that it transpired the way it did.” I sit back down and place my hand on Calypso’s leg, giving it a squeeze, hoping that it calms me down a bit. “What do you think happened? Someone in your pack?”Nicholi shakes his head, “No, we’re the only
The Hybrid of Lost River clearing the air
Calypso The overwhelming emotions that took over had me standing before my mother and brother, dumbfounded. I couldn’t seem to move, let alone breathe. So, I stand here just staring at them with my eyes wide. They step back at Atlas’ growl of protection for me. I could feel the love he was sending me in our bond, which settled me slightly. His chest rests against my back, which helps my body relax. “I’m sorry. For more things than you know.” I hesitate for a second before looking around. “Is there somewhere we can talk that’s a little less open?” “Yes. Come this way.” My brother leads my mother away with his arm around her shoulder. It seems like he wants to keep her in check, and I can’t decide his motivations. Did he want her to have a relationship with me? Or is he against this whole thing? Either way, I don’t want this conversation out in the open. There could be ears and people listening. I smile when I feel Atlas take my hand, interlacing our fingers together as we walk forward
The Hybrid of Lost River Reunions
AtlasAfter Reid left, we sat there in silence on the front deck. I repeated the words he said in my head. That there might be a way out of their bond. As I close my eyes, I lean back into my chair. I interlace my fingers behind my head and try not to overthink it. How much easier would our lives be without Reid in it? The pack would have a much easier time accepting Calypso.“I can practically hear your heavy thoughts from over here. No secrets anymore between us.” I cannot help but smile at how observant my mate is. She is perfect, and I want nothing to come between us.“I am trying to choose my words carefully,” I said as I looked up at her. She was leaning on her knees, her legs up on her chair. Her chin resting gracefully on her knees, holding her coffee with both hands. “I am learning from my past mistakes and poor judgment with my words. Here is the truth of it, though. I keep thinking about what he said about your bond.”She rolls her eyes and smiles at me. “I can’t lie; it’s
The Hybrid of Lost River Planning
CalypsoWhy was I so nervous? I held the power. Altas kept reminding me of that fact. However, right now, I feel like a small, rejected child. As I heard the car doors slam outside the cabin, I met them on the deck. When I get to the door, I pause before not wanting to appear too eager to go out.Once I hear them, I take the first step onto the deck and open the door. Reid was holding a bakery box, and Altas had two coffees in hand. Reid paused at seeing me, and I swear he looked nervous. Altas sidesteps him and sets the coffee down on the wood railing. He can tell I am nervous. I can feel him trying to reassure me through the bond.He pulls me forward into his muscular arms, and I inhale his scent, letting it calm me. I wrap my arms around his middle, and he doesn’t seem in a hurry to let me go. When he pulls back, he bends down and brings me in for a kiss, and I can feel him trying not to smile into the kiss.“Let’s go sit out here. The morning is beautiful.” I tell him and whisper
The Hybrid of Lost River Making Breakfast Plans
AtlasMy phone rings, and I untangle myself from Calypso, trying not to disturb her. I grab the phone and some sweatpants. Once I get out of the room, I answer the phone quietly. “Yeah?” Awkwardly putting my pants on one leg at a time while trying to make it out the door onto the deck.“Sent a team to tag and bag Garrett. They have him chained and waiting for interrogation. Do you want me to interrogate him first or let Calypso be a part of it?” Reid was a ball of energy and seemed a little out of his element now.I knew he wanted to get back in Calypso’s good graces. “What about the contract out on her?” Not letting him have even an inch of being impressed. His suffering was entertaining to me. I know it shouldn’t be, but it was. The human side of me was okay with sharing her with him. My Lycan side wanted to have all of her to myself.“It’s voided, but she still needs to lie low if someone hasn’t received the message. I want to meet up; let me explain things to her. I’ve done everyt
The Hybrid of Lost River Reap What You Sow.
ReidI light my beacon before I attract any more unwanted attention. I did not want to get the reputation of being a granny pervert. The sad truth was that I just needed a listening ear. It’s not like I can confess things to my father or anyone in my coven. They can use everything against you. Everything can make you look weak, and I wasn’t ready to lose the power I had gained.I follow the blue light to my destination, not paying much attention to everyone looking at me with curious eyes. A few vampires found solace with the witches, but mostly vampires; the trust was never there. The lycans, however, and witches found a balance with each other. Partly because they were both from nature, or that’s what I have been told.Rose and the rest of the elders established an arrangement many years ago. I help get rare ingredients for spells and slowly collect IOUs and spells to benefit me. Was it probably selfish and self-serving? Yes, but I didn’t care. Collecting debts and having influentia
The Hybrid of Lost River Spirit Animal
ReidI welcomed the pressure that left me when Calypso sealed her bond with Atlas relief. Which was then immediately followed up with dread at the thought of him taking her body. His teeth pierced her throat, marking her as his. The fear that he scored over my mark, the mark that wasn’t supposed even to be there, sent a chill down my spine.Like a child throwing a tantrum, I couldn’t control myself as I punched a hole in the wall. Was it childish? Yes, did I feel marginally better? Yes. Part of me wanted to find the first vampire to spread her legs for me. I wouldn’t have to go far, being in my position with the coven. One thing that a vampire loved more than a good tumble in the sheets was power. Both of which I could offer; I have plenty of repeat customers that would enjoy a phone call from me.I wanted to beg her for forgiveness, but yet another part wanted to hurt her. Not physically, of course, but emotionally, like she did to me. It felt like my soul was at war with itself. Sel
The Hybrid of Lost River Committed to the Bond
AtlasI felt so overwhelmed by Calypso; I never knew sex could be this good. Even though I haven’t even penetrated her yet. My cock was providing extra lubricant from the generous amounts of pre-cum collected. I kiss her as if I want to devour her, and I want to. It’s time she realized how good we can be together. In and out of the bedroom, I know I can at least show her what this side of us could be like. I run my cock up to circle her clit before returning and pressing just the tip inside her, getting the tip nice and wet. The more I teased her, the more slick produced between her thighs. Her back arching and moaning into my mouth was enough for me to want to cum. I hoped I wouldn’t embarrass myself. I needed to get her close to the edge and push her over before I found my release.“Altas!” Her nails dug into my lower back, trying to get me to sink deeper inside her. It was too bad I wasn’t ready to stop teasing her. “Please…”I pull myself back from her and look into her beautiful
The Hybrid of Lost River Just the Tip
CalypsoYou're in control. Go at whatever speed you want, and I will follow your lead. The words flitted inside my head quickly as Altas looked at me with tenderness. The tenderness that I was pretty sure that I didn’t deserve.I felt powerful being in charge of how far things go. However, I was unsure of myself. My knowledge of sex was minimal, given that the last and only time was with Reid. “I. I don’t exactly know what I’m doing.” I broke his intense eye contact, embarrassed by my inexperience. “Only done this one time, and it ended in disaster.”I felt his cock twitch at my admission, trapped behind the zipper of his jeans. Did my inexperience turn him on? “This is all about you. Find what you like, or tell me exactly what you want me to do.”A blush heated my cheeks at the thoughts that were happening currently in my head. “Tell me.” He placed his hand under my chin to raise my face to meet his gaze.“What if it’s something you don’t want to do?” I never wanted him to do somethi
