The Hybrid Chapter 17: Surprise
Ciaran stepped out of the shower, steam filled the room. He tried to rub the left over tension knotting the muscles at the back of his neck that the shower had no affect on. He had a bad feeling twisting his gut after that phone call with Alpha Mike. It would seem there are more packs against them than willing to help. He grabbed a dry hand towel and wiped off a small area of his mirror to get rid of his five o'clock shadow. A soft knock interrupted him half way through causing him to cut his cheek when he jumped. "Shit." He cursed quietly. "Who is it?" He yelled towards the door. "Runa. Are you busy?" Her voice was muffled through the door, though the soft sweetness in her tone had a lasting effect on him. He opened the door to get a blast of air filled with her scent. He inhaled deeply, closing his eyes as he enjoyed the aroma. His eyes shot open when she cleared her throat. She was shielding her eyes from him, when he looked down he knew why and a grin sprea
The Hybrid Chapter 18: Enemies And Allies
Runa quickly dressed after she ran up the stairs causing a few females to scream in surprise at the huge wolf nearly barreling into them. As she came out of Ciaran's room, the hall was vacant. She strained her ears, trying desperately to hear anything. Everything was silent, eeriely so. She slowly made her way down to the foyer. Still, no one in sight. She made her way to Ciaran's office. Her nose picked up on several scents just behind the oak door. Pressing her ear against it, she could hear whispering."I got word from a friend I made on my travels. The Grey Mountain Pack I do believe, then again I could be wrong. I don't keep up with the pack's names and borders. I was surprised to hear that a hybrid was not only in a pack but possibly the mate to the alpha! Now I find out not only is it true, but you are also a hybrid. So, I've decided to help a fellow hybrid out. You're welcome." Sarcasm laced those two little words. Vicky was making it harder and harder to trust or e
The Hybrid Chapter 19: Bad News
Ciaran watched as Runa's skin slowly knitted it's self back together. The wound at her neck almost completely healed while her chest and abdomen had barely begun, the flow of blood had ceased however. As soon as he had gotten her onto a clean bed he had scored his wrist to let his blood flow past her lips, hoping his blood would speed her healing. She had just been wheeled in from surgery and looked horrible. IV tubes ran from morphine bags and bags of O negative to her well toned arms. Her hair and skin pale in comparison to her healthy glow. The endotracheal tube that had been stuck down her throat was working properly to aid her labored breathing, however. Zane had certainly done a number on her mid-section, nearly spilling her organs. If she had not killed him, Ciaran would have, only he would have made it torture. "Alpha?" The pack doctor cleared her throat."What." He grumbled aggressively then cleared his throat, ran a shaky hand over his tir

Thank you for your support and time for reading my story.}Time seemed to pass slowly, waiting for another battle to present its self, though life still moved forward. The snow thickened and the temperature dropped further as the days became shorter. The female's in the pack were kinder toward Runa with each day, though she was unsure of their reasons behind the new found acceptance. Sympathy or gratitude, which ever the case may be, she was grateful she no longer had to deal with their dirty stares. She was able to convince Ciaran that Tristan posed no threat to the pack and was released from the jail cell he occupied for a week. Ciaran was still unsure, however, and had someone shadow his every move. Alpha Mike's pack had submitted to Ciaran with his death, though they remained in southern Ohio. Jake was appointed as the overseer of the territory until more p
The Hybrid Chapter 21: Theories
"Ok, around about how many people are we going to be cooking for?" Sascha asked as she bounced the toddler sitting in her lap."An army." Runa replied with a grin. "There is maybe a hundred and sixty, hundred and seventy people in my old pack and, what, three hundred here?""Three-seventy five, actually." "So yeah an army." Runa giggled again and made a funny face at the little girl playing peak-a-boo around the back of the stool Sascha sat in, absently rubbing her belly. "We certainly have our work cut out for us, don't we?" Sascha smiled, as she rubbed her nose to the toddler's in her lap. "Yep." Runa popped the 'p'. "Wonderful thing we have these two little rascals to help taste test everything." Sascha said and the children's faces lite up with excitement. "I want first bite!" the little girl behind the chair piped up, raising her arm as far in the air as she could reach. With a smile on her face, sadness filled Runa's heart. She was al
The Hybrid Chapter 22: Disgrace And Acceptance
"Why do I feel like we're going to become lab rats for out own pack?" Runa asked after she and Ciaran stepped out of the shower after their little scare before the ritual. "Let's hope it does not end as badly as you make it sound." He was pulling a white button down shirt around his shoulders to lay flat over his white slacks, while she slipped into a golden red gown with a slit that revealed her hip if she stood just right."Is there anything else I can wear? I feel just a little bit exposed." She fiddled with the plunging neckline of her dress trying to close the gap as much she could with little success around her bust."I think you look gorgeous." He stepped up behind her, the buttons on his shirt forgotten as the two halves fell open around her while his hands found themselves at her waist and he pressed his lips tenderly to her neck."I never did like these ceremonial traditions. To formal for me." She confessed."Me neither but think of it this way,
The Hybrid Chapter 23: A Turning Point
Early the next morning, around three a.m., Runa woke from her nightmare of the night she mutilated her best friend. Images of teeth ripping open flesh and tearing away bones still painted her mind in vivid color. Suddenly the days events flooded back to her, Jackie was on her mind. "I have to go to her! I have to explain what happened." Runa was in hysterics as she bolted upright in the bed, startling Ciaran out of his slumber. "What is it?" He said, sleepily. "I have to go talk to Ms. Jackie. She has to know what happened." Runa replied as she jumped out of the bed. "Give her time. You don't need to stress your self this way. There is always another day to talk to her. She's part of our pack now. Besides, it's three o'clock in the morning." Ciaran reached for her, trying to hold her close. She pushed him away."You don't understand! She was the mother I wished for myself. The mother I didn't have. And I killed her only child. The only family she ha
The Hybrid Chapter 24: Look To The Future
Ciaran ducked, dodged, and leaped over fallen bodies, both wolf and vampire, as he slew his own victims in his search for the true prize. The one they were all looking for to end this war. The Queen. He could hear the thunder of her wing beats. Could sense her deadly presence, but not her exact location. He continued to shred through the pale and blood red of the undead. Soon he realized the vampires were not alone.Alpha Tobias and his pack sounded their war cry with a deep long howl as they arrived upon the scene. The one eyed alpha was running head on towards Ciaran. His blonde wolf collided with Ciaran's pure white beast. Guttural growls erupted as teeth gnashed and powerful paws slashed at each other. Tobias locked his jaws around Ciaran's shoulder and shook viciously, dislocating it from its socket. Ciaran ignored the pain in his shoulder as he twisted out of his jaws and snapped his own around the back of Tobias's neck, over his spine. Ciaran jerked straight as he st

She knew she was being watched, yet even with her heightened eyesight, she could not spot the suspect who had her flesh on fire. The thought of going out to investigate has never really scared her before, yet this time things were different.

Facing the inner battle head-on, she decided to check things out to be sure things were fine."I'm stepping outside for a minute. I'll be right back." She told her husband as she wal
The Hybrid Epilogue
A year and a half later.So much has changed in the pack in the previous year. Runa had really stepped into her roll as Luna. She broke ground on a new playground for the children. She had drawn out plans to build onto the hospital to make room for better equipment and technology so more tests could be run with sooner results. Runa would not let Ciaran know, but she had been quite concerned about her health lately and was growing curious to know more about her hybrid blood. Ruby had informed her on what medical machinery would surrender understandable results, and she would leave a note on Ciaran's desk. She and Ciaran had another scare, no to long ago. They almost did not make it. If not for Ruby's extensive knowledge about modern medicine, they both would have died just from a walk through the woods around the territory. They had had a run in with some hunters, she had been shot five times and he was shot seven. The blood loss they both sustained was critical. So, Runa and Ruby h
The Hybrid Chapter 26: Is this finally over?
The pack heard the roar and raced through the yard when no one could find the Alpha or Luna. Everyone followed the sound of battle and found their leaders out numbered twenty to one. Jackie was the first to shift and jump in the fight as she saw Runa take a heavy blow to the head from a vampire who had picked up a fallen tree limb to use as a bat. It did not take the rest of the pack long before they were all shifting to save their Alpha and Luna. Hisses and growls filled the night and silenced the crickets and critters. Tristan let out another monstrous roar before jumping into the night sky, vanishing though not completely. The sound of his wings helped to pinpoint his location. Though with so many fighting on the ground, it was still quite a challenge. Runa regained her senses just in the knick of time to dodge another swing of the makeshift bat. Her eyes caught sight of a wing flap as Tristan crossed the moon's glowing surface, he planned to dive into the fight. Tristan tucked
The Hybrid Chapter 25: Not Out Of The Woods Yet
The following day was hard on the pack as a whole, having lost many good members of the pack. Family and friends gathered around the funeral pier, each holding a candle stick. As each person walked up to pay their last respects to the dead, Ciaran and Runa stood tall in front of everyone. "We've lost many in our battle. Each one a valued member of the Blood Moon pack. May the moon goddess shine your path into the eternal light at her side in the heavens." Ciaran's voice was husky with emotion as he raised his hands towards the rest of the pack members. "If anyone wishes to say anything about our bravely fallen brothers and sisters please step forward and speak now." No one stepped forward. Every pack member was either holding someone else or being held themselves. Grief, loss, two emotions not so easily to work through even for those who have lost so many. Empathy was shown to many around the clearing, as was love and loyalty. "Families of the fallen, please
