Bella“On your knees.” The guard grabs me by my copper hair, forcing me down. My knees hit the gravel. The sharp edges quickly dig into my skin.Looking to my left, I see my two older sisters lined up next to me. They had their eyes on the ground. Whimpering and crying as the Alpha stepped towards us.His deep green eyes roamed up and down the three of us, settling on me. I refused to look away, staring at the man who had caused me so much pain.“Lower your eyes.” He growls at me. When I refused, the guard smacks the back of my head down. I refused to keep it down. If I was going to die, I wanted to stare my killer in the face. After all, that’s what I made my victims do.I wanted to see the Alpha’s face when he swung his axe. I wanted my face to haunt my father for the rest of his shitty life.I wasn’t like my sisters. I didn’t yet have my Wolf, but I also had no fear. Death didn’t scare me and my father definitely didn’t.Ignoring me, my father moves to my eldest sister Grace. He

BellaThe dark haired man gives me thirty minutes to sort myself out. He hands me a plate of food. “You need all the energy you can get to make it through tonight.”The dark haired man walks me through the crowds. A mixture of cheers and boos come from the Humans, Wolves and Lycans. The dark haired man pushes me into the boxing ring before I had a chance to ask a question“Good Luck.” He nods to someone behind me.I turn to see a man standing opposite me. Shorts barely skim his hips. His toned body seemed to have the females gushing over him. He is easily over six feet tall and well built. Compared to my small five foot frame, he was massive. He was a Lycan.Size never scared me. He was going to die.“A little girl, you want me to fight a little girl?” He shouts out to the crowd. There is a unanimous cheer. “Then let’s give the crowd what they want.”He takes a step towards me, pulling his arm back, ready to throw a fist at my face. Annoyance flashes through his dark blue eyes as I ea

AidenShe isn’t quite with it as I carry her from the truck into my building. Her body continues to spasm a little as she lays in my arms.There are a few Hybrids that stick their heads out of their rooms. No one says anything and they quickly close their doors again. Recognising that I was frustrated.Bella’s head rolls back over my arm. Her body spasms a few more times before it stills. Whatever Dom had done to her, he had fucked her right over.Settling her on the large bed. Her copper hair fans out on the pillow. Her eyes follow me as I move around, but she keeps her mouth shut. Even when I place a glass of water next to the bed, she says nothing, remaining still, except for the odd jerk.“I just need to grab a few things, stay here, you will be safe.”Heading down to the ground floor. I grab what I can from the main kitchen. The girl was thin, weak and must be starving. It was my duty as a soon to be King to make sure all of our kind were fit and well.Opening the door to my room

BellaI didn’t want to be here. He kept firing question after question. Trying to find a way in. He wouldn’t let me leave either. One minute he was telling me that I had no choice but to stand in front of the King. The next he said he would decide.When I asked him why, he told me that I would likely have to testify. To ensure Dom gets the death penalty.Aiden sets a plate of food in front of me. Though he didn’t seem annoyed when I didn’t touch it. A smile crept over his face as I sniffed it first. For all I know, it could be laced with wolfsbane.“You have to eat something.”“Not hungry.”“I can hear your stomach growling from here.” He grins at me. Which just made me more determined to annoy him. He would have to accept that I didn’t want or need his help at some point.“I said I’m not hungry.”I kept my distance as much as I could. Not allowing him to get close enough to put his hands on me. “What about your mother?” The question came from nowhere. He watches me from his desk. Hi

AidenShe saunters off to the bathroom as I settle down at my desk. Picking up the phone, I call my father.“About time, Aiden!” He snaps down the line. “Now why is Leighton here with Dom while you are nowhere to be seen?”“Dad, chill. I brought one of the fighters back to my place for the night. And before you jump to any conclusions, no I did not sleep with her.”Technically I did, but it wasn’t like I fucked her.“I assume you are bringing her today.”“We will be up sometime this afternoon. She isn’t awake yet.” I lie to him “Just don’t let Dom off this time. We can’t have him buying minors to fight.”Bella had been more than right when she said my father had been taking it easy. It was one of the things that kept me up last night. I had replayed our conversation. But the only thing I could focus on was what she had said about my father and how he no longer appeared to care.“You don’t need to tell me what to do, Aiden. I am your father.”“But you have been taking it easy. The othe

BellaAiden keeps his eyes on the road. His jaw clenching and unclenching. He probably had a million questions. And yet, he kept his mouth shut. So much for him hating the silence.I don’t even know why I wanted him to see the scars. I just felt like he should know. I wanted him to know.“Your father did that to you?” He mutters after a few miles.I nod my head.He pulls the car off to the side, bringing us to a stop.“Why? Did you do something?”I stare into his strange grey eyes. I wish I knew what he was thinking. He was just so hard to read.“My father made me what I am.”“That includes beating you so much that you are scarred for life?”I shrug my shoulders at him. It was all I had ever known. The beatings were to make me stronger. The burns, to help me learn to withstand pain. Everything he did was to make me more resilient. To make me something that he couldn’t be. He had led me to believe it. He convinced me that I wanted it. Grace lost it when she found out a month ago. It

AidenI watch her as her eyes follow my father. Her brow creases into a frown.“Are you okay?”She nods her head and looks at my mother. “Could I use the bathroom?”“Sure, it’s just down the hall on the left.”I was going to follow her. As much as I was certain she wouldn’t try anything stupid, there was still a chance but my mother grabs hold of me.“She doesn’t know, does she?”“I don’t know what you are talking about.”“You’re her mate, Aiden. She is your mate.”“You don’t know what you are talking about.”“I am your mother. There is only one person that you have looked at like that. And there hasn’t been another one since Ivy. Why haven’t you told her?”“Because she’s not ready.”“You mean you’re not.”Maybe my mum was right. It has taken me years to get over Ivy’s death. She had sacrificed herself for me. Even though it had been years, I still wasn’t ready to accept another mate so easily.“You should tell your father. Before it’s too late.”“What does that mean?”She looks away

Bella“Will you just stop talking!” I snap. I was sick of the questions. Sick of him trying to make me out to be a victim.“I'm trying to help.”“I don’t need help!”“Your father really did a number on you, didn’t he?”He ignores my growling as he approaches me.“What did he tell you? That you couldn’t be friends with others? That everyone was an enemy? Because if you believe that your entire life, your life is going to be pretty shit.”He pulls off his shirt and tosses it into the laundry basket. He was going to hit me, just like my father did.My father did the same thing when he punished me. The shirt would come off and then he would pull the belt from his jeans. The difference was Aiden was not my father.“GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!” I scream at him. “I am not your punch bag and if you try to touch me, I will claw your eyes out.”His eyes narrow and then widen in confusion, he looks down at his torso. “I’m just changing my shirt.”He pauses to look at me and silently crosses to th

The Hybrids Fated Mate Epilogue
Bella It was a strange few days, watching Aiden put plans in place. I knew where we were going, he had made that clear and I couldn’t wait. I had never felt more at peace than when we were in the forest and I couldn't wait to show the boys. “That’s all my stuff packed.” Katie whispers as she drops one last box into the back of Leightons van. I had barely seen her smile recently, unless it was a front she was putting on for Flynn. But a natural smile just didn’t seem to exist anymore. I hoped she would get past her mothers death. “You don’t have to come.” I say for the hundredth time. “Yes I do. Leighton says that he won’t leave me, but he won’t leave you either. nd you are the closest thing I have to family besides Flynn." There was a strange tone in her voice. One that I hadn’t heard from her before. “Are you mad?” “No…I just….” She tucks her blonde hair behind her ears and scans the grounds looking for someone. “Leighton’s inside with Aiden. If that’s who you are looking for
The Hybrids Fated Mate One Hundred and Twenty One.
Aiden“Well she has to be wrong?!” Leighton shoves his hands in his pockets, completely unfathomed by what I had told him.“Why would she kill herself? Why would she tell me all that if she is lying and then stop her own heart? what would be the point?”“Guilt,” he shrugs his shoulders. “She knew you wouldn’t let her get away alive.”I groan and lean back in my chair, resting my hands behind my head as I stare up at the ceiling.“Bella’s with Katie?”He nods at me. “They are trying to decide on the best way to tell Flynn. Chances are, he already knows.” He studies me. “This is a good thing. The problem dealt with itself. You should be happy. But you’re not, are you?”“No.”“He’s a pup, what harm can he do?”“He won’t be a pup for long. You know as well as I do, he will be fully grown by the time his first birthday comes around. And I can’t help wondering if Eden was right.”“It’s not the first time we have been screwed over by a witch that has been spouting off a load of crap.” Leight
The Hybrids Fated Mate One Hundred and Twenty.
AidenI was grateful for the change of pace, standing guard of my own packhouse. The peace and quiet gave me time to think, to put a plan in place. To decide what’s best for my family.It was dark outside, and the clouds above us were thick. Unusually, you couldn’t see many stars. A storm was brewing, I could smell it in the air.I look at the other Hybrids, Wolves and Lycans that are standing guard. All giving up their own time to either protect my home or theirs. No one moves, everyone is as still as a statue, alert and prepared.I knew Eden was coming back. I knew this storm that was brewing above us was not a natural storm. And everyone else did too. That’s why the chatter had stopped and that’s why everyone is so alert. She was trying to mess with our senses.“You should go inside.” Rhys whispers next to me. “You are the King, and you and I both know she will target you.”“I have to do this.” I mutter back.“What about Bella and your son?”“I’m doing this for them.”He nods his h

BellaThe Omega leaves me with the three boys. While Connor and Cayden were messing around trying to bounce on the bed, Flynn just stares out the window, his small hand coiled up in the curtain.Stepping next to him, his eyes don’t leave the window. I assumed he was looking for his mother.‘You don’t need to be scared.’ I link him, knowing it was the only way to talk to him.‘I’m not.’ His small voice answers me back‘Why didn’t you tell everyone that you were still seeing your mum?’ I was curious. If it hadn’t been for Cayden, we would never have known.He wrinkles up his nose. ‘Is she in trouble?’‘She is.’I watch his shoulders drop a little and his eyes flicker up to me. ‘Katie says we shouldn’t lie.’‘Your sister is very smart.’ I smileA small smile appears on his lips. ‘She’s the best. She looks after me.'I couldn’t agree more. She was a good friend too.‘Do you know where your mum is?’ I ask calmly, hoping that if he knew, he would tell me but I didn't want to push him, he wa
The Hybrids Fated Mate One Hundred and Eighteen.
AidenI was trying to keep my mate focussed. But I couldn’t help but be curious about the shifter's words. Had Bella really been born as a pup? Creedance hadn’t said anything when we had interrogated him, but then he had never said that Bella was a twin either.Looking around the room, blood was sprayed all up the walls and across the carpet. The shifters decapitated body discarded on the floor. Leighton was holding Katie against his chest, running his fingers through her blood stained blonde hair, muttering reassuring words but his eyes were on me. I knew why. Being born in pup form was extremely rare, there had only ever been a handful of recordings in history. And all were female, and all with a power unlike anyone else's. They just needed to learn to tap into it. If it was true about Bella, she was more powerful than we realised.Everything was starting to fall into place. The size of her Wolf, the delayed first shift, her need to protect the vulnerable, and why Selene was so des

Bella“Christian. Christian is fucking dead. I ripped him and his Rogues apart.” I spit“Yes, I remember it well.” She smiles. “You really are something else. He said you were special and yet I was always sceptical until I saw you that day. And what a magnificent Wolf you are, wasting no time to shred him to pieces. I was livid and yet mesmerised. You really could have provided him with a brilliant child.” she laughs, wiping her chin and spitting more blood on the floor.“You watched?” I mutter, wondering where she had been.“Like I said, I was fascinated.”“So how do you plan on carrying out Christian’s work? All those women got away. And do you really expect me to let you leave, alive?”“Did they get away?” Cassie mocks as she leans her back against the wall, smiling to herself. So much had gone on that I hadn’t even had a chance to find any of the women that Aiden and Leighton helped to escape. I had no idea about their children, I had no idea about any of them. They had been taken
The Hybrids Fated Mate One Hundred and Sixteen.
Bella“Is he serious? Is he really expecting us to believe that he hasn’t done something to my Dad?”I watch Katie pace. Her arms swinging frantically at her sides, her hands are clenched into tight balls. I knew Katie, she was never angry, emotional yes, frantic sometimes, but angry is not something I usually see. If I hadn’t dragged her out of the lounge, I was certain she would have attacked someone. I wondered if it was what Aiden saw when he looked at me sometimes.“You are right.” I mutter. “Something doesn’t seem right.”“So you agree?” She stops and stares at meSlowly, I nod my head. Eli’s words, his denial, something just seemed off.“You should tell them. Flynn, Connor and Cayden are all down there with him.”“And so is Aiden and Leighton. Trust me, he is not getting anywhere near the boys.”She starts pacing again and I try to hold in the laugh. It was funny, we all did it when we were frustrated, like it was drummed into us how to react when we were overwhelmed.“He said
The Hybrids Fated Mate One Hundred and Fifteen
Leighton“What do you mean you can’t tell us?” Katie ask as I push bookcases in front of the windows.“Is it Aiden?” Bella queries.I turned around to look at them. Katie had her arms folded across her chest while Bella stood with her hands on her hips. Both of them glaring at me.“Aiden is fine. I’ve been ordered to not let you out of the room and to ensure you are all protected.”"You know I can shift, right?" Bell mutters, rolling her eyes“But why?” Katie frowns at me. Feeling all her emotions was still taking a lot of getting used too. Yes I’ve always been able to scent changes in peoples moods, but feeling them when your mate can be an emotional wreck was hard.“Yes, I know you can shift Bella. They were Aiden’s orders. I don’t know any more than what he has told me. He said he would talk to us when he gets back.”“Back from where? Leighton you are being very secretive!” Bella scowls at me.“I’ve told you everything I know. Aiden is with Rhys, he isn’t alone. You know as well as
The Hybrids Fated Mate One Hundred and Fourteen.
AidenI knew Bella would be losing all sense of being calm, I just had to hope that Leighton and Katie could keep her in the house. That Leighton would use his Beta skills to stop her from coming after me.Guards surrounded the pack house while others were already searching houses, looking for Eli.Katie had said that Leighton could still scent Eden. That she had tried covering her scent but had been watching them as they talked.Sniffing the air, I can’t scent her, not immediately. I look around at the guards who are watching me with interest. Some of them were Hybrids, they would be able to scent her too, but they were holding their places as ordered.“Rhys!”I call him forward seeing as he was watching me the most. He jogs towards me, a wide smile on his face. The guards that had been stood either side of him take a step toward each other, covering the gap that Rhys had left.“Yes Alpha.”“Have there been any sightings of either of them?”“The Witch,” He whispers, “is watching at a
