My 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

    Calypso1. Getting out the duct tape from my backpack, I quickly tape it around my shoe. The sole was beginning to fall off, causing it to flop and make me uncoordinated. I couldn't afford to get a new pair yet. They would have to hold out for a bit longer. The following five miles to the next homeless shelter are already annoying me. Bouncing around to different homeless shelters was getting more complicated. Humans tend to get suspicious of anything supernatural quite quickly. So I backpack up and down the country, trying to do the odd job here and there. You see, I was the outcast in the supernatural world. My mother was a lycan and, as an act of rebellion, decided to have a passing fling with my father, a vampire. Pretty sure my father must have had a death wish. Considering one bite from my mother and it would have been game over. She didn't know that her heat would be approaching the next day. She was equally as surprised when I came into the world being what I was. She was

    Calypso2.Two hours later, I was promptly escorted to a town car. A tall blonde lycan was the one escorting me, I couldn't see his eyes due to sunglasses, but he had a well-defined scar that ran from his left eyebrow, and then below, he was dressed in a suit as he walked beside me. As he opened the door, I turned to tell him thanks as he jabbed a needle into my neck. He cradled me against him as my legs gave out before whispering nothing personal into my ear. The last thought that enters my mind before oblivion takes me is that I will make them all pay. I don't often give in to my dark nature, but at this moment, being out of control of my body twice in one day was almost too much for me to bear.Trying to open my eyes, my eyelids feel like they are being weighted down. The room starts to spin as I try and sit up. "Shh, it's okay your safe." A soft voice tells me while gently pushing me back to lie down before putting a cool cloth over my eyes and forehead. I don't know why, but I w

  • The Hybrid of Lost River   Lifestyle Change

    3.CalypsoAfter Letha leaves, I cannot rest until I explore the house. I couldn’t relax, not knowing my surroundings, using my unnaturally fast speed to my advantage speeding from room to room. There were three bedrooms, including the master. Two guest rooms were on the upper level, including a jack and Jill bathroom.The living room and kitchen were an open concept. A large tv was on the wall, an oversized sectional couch sat in the living room, and a half bath was between the living room and the massive white granite island, which was probably big enough to seat eight. I couldn’t imagine having dinner parties worrying about the extra seating. The lower cabinets were a dark mahogany color, and the uppers were a bright white. The white made me not want to touch anything in order not to tarnish anything. With that thought, I ran into the master bathroom. It had a wet room! The huge tiled walk-in shower also had a large claw foot tub sitting inside.Letha put soaps, razors, lotions, s

  • The Hybrid of Lost River   Running with the Alpha

    Atlas 4. I step out of the lodge and look at everyone gathered. I hoped I would make an announcement soon welcoming Calypso to the pack. With Letha's reassurance, everyone in the pack seemed to be tolerating the idea of her. I am the alpha, though; what I say goes. It helps, though, when you have a love for your people. I didn't want to be like Rupert, the leader of Pebblebrook, which is why I couldn't allow him to have Calypso back. If he wanted her back into his pack, there must be a good reason. Thankfully Liam had an in at the RHA and let us know about Pebblebrook's interest in Calypso. It wasn't for love. You send your six-year-old granddaughter out into the world or to be killed. You don't have affection for her. There is something about her that he figured out or wants. This is why I had our man inside take her to the car to tranquilize her. I wanted the doctor to run tests on her while she slept. This was good since the blood banks refused to let her have any blood. Luckily

    5CalypsoI wake up feeling warm and content. I first realized that I was sleeping with my head on the ground. Nothing new there; as I move and stretch, I am aware of muscular arms wrapped around my waist.That’s new; thoughts of what transpired began to enter my mind in flashes. Then, finally, I slowly rolled to see the man my wolf claimed was her mate. Which in turn meant he was my mate as well.I turn over and take a look at the man holding me close. All I knew was his wolf was black and beautiful, and he had very muscular forearms. Not to mention I was enjoying the warmth and feeling of contentment I felt while his arms were locked around me. I needed to face the music and figure out what would come next.When I looked, he looked at me with piercing green eyes, eyes I swear I had seen before. His dark hair was almost black, just like his wolf, and was long, going slightly past his shoulders. His cheekbones were high. You could tell that even with his beard. I couldn’t help but rea

  • The Hybrid of Lost River   Luna?

    CalypsoI never knew what I was missing until I ran with another wolf. My wolf was content never to return to stay in the wild with Altas forever. The logical part of me knew it was not an option. He has obligations back at the pack, and I will, too, at some point. I secretly wish he wasn't the alpha, but knowing that is a very selfish wish, I will have to learn to adapt at some point. Unsure if I want those responsibilities that come with mating the alpha. I was just used to caring for myself and wasn't very good at doing that. Okay, I was terrible at it. However, right now, I was living in the moment of being chased by a large black wolf. Feeling him nip at me and play on the way back will forever be my life's top moments. Soon I found the trail to follow back to the cabin. I didn't transform until I was on the porch and ready to walk in the door. I had very few neighbors, if any, but I still wasn't prepared to face the music until necessary. Avoiding until ready was my plan; too

  • The Hybrid of Lost River   Books and DNA

    Atlas I have been reading book after book of prophecies, trying to find what I was looking for. I couldn't for the life of me remember if it was a white lycan or different colored eyes. Still, something sparked the idea in my wolf's mind, and I was not going fast enough looking for him because he was completely annoyed with me being here instead of with Calypso. A mating bond solidifies her in his mind for the pack, but the rest of our pack will need more. So I could only look at prophecies and cross my fingers for the doctor's report. I loved being the alpha of this pack, and I was terrified of them losing faith in me because of Calypso. I know that my wolf would not let me not choose her. I don't see how anyone could reject their mate. My brain and every fiber of myself was aching to return to her. To at least see her and be in her presence. Poor Liam had been at this all night looking through texts. He was snoozing on the couch in the library. I was letting him have a break befo

  • The Hybrid of Lost River   Group Meeting.

    Calypso I have been reading for a while with a well-stocked supply of snacks from Letha. I understand the mate bond and pack life better. I need to learn about vampire life, but since I am with a pack, that's a little more important. Once I am welcomed into the pack, I can hear and understand the other lycans around me. I cannot imagine how overwhelming that will be for my wolf. She has been so alone for so long. I think I will have to baby step this whole pack life thing. I hope that Atlas will understand. I also hope that the pack won't be offended. It's such a delicate balance. I want to make a good impression, but it will be tricky until she gets used to running with wolves. I hope Atlas is open to my suggestions that I must run past him tonight. The mate bond was a whole different beast. Atlas and I can feel each other's emotions and communicate through thought in both lycan and human forms. The whole thing felt unnatural, and I wonder if that is because of my vampire side o

    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.

    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

    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

    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
