BellaI watch from the window as they leave. They drive off without even looking up to see if I’m watching. I knew what they would find. I knew that Aiden would pick up the scents in my old bedroom and he would know that things had been a lot worse than what I had let on. The scarred back was nothing.An hour goes by before I check the door. I was surprised it wasn’t locked. But we had made a deal. I could at least stay here until there was news.Heading back to the window, I pull the chair over and make myself comfortable. Watching the people on the street below.The knock interrupts my thoughts. Halle doesn’t wait for permission to come in. She swans in, her raven hair fanned out over her shoulders.“Are you okay?” She beams at me.“Fine.”“Do you want to grab something to eat?”“No.”“Is that all you ever say? One word answers?”I flash my golden eyes in her direction and don’t say anything.“Geez, I’m just trying to be nice.” She folds her arms across her chest and pouts.Rolling

Trigger warning: Talk of past sexual abuse and suicideAidenI knew what to expect when she had nightmares, but nothing could prepare me for this. She had tried to kill my sister. But it was like she was in some kind of trance, trapped in a dream while she was awake.Why the hell had they been in bed together?If we hadn’t made it back when we did, Halle would likely be dead.Leighton glares at me as I try to reassure Bella. Bella keeps asking me what is wrong with her. It was obvious what it was, it was past trauma, but she wasn’t ready to hear that. Or ready to accept it.“Take Halle downstairs, make sure she is alright.” I snap as Halle rubs her throat and Leighton continues to glare at me.Bella starts pacing as I let go of her. She takes the same steps, back and forth along the carpet. Not quite making eye contact with me as she frowns.“Bella, you need to talk to me!” I demand as I grab her shoulders.She looks into my eyes. “I didn’t know.”“Nightmares?”She slowly bobs her he

BellaMore than forty eight hours had passed since I tried strangling Halle. Aiden didn’t mention it again.We hadn’t talked about my father either. It seemed that my confirmation of what my father had done to me was too much for him to handle.He left in the early morning only to return late evening to lay next to me and sleep. Leighton was put in charge of me instead. He didn’t speak either. He would mostly sit at the laptop, typing or reading.He wouldn’t look at me either. But maybe that was a good thing.I stick to my usual spot by the window and spot Aiden’s vehicle pulling up.“He’s back.” I mutterLeighton doesn’t speak. He closes the laptop and walks out of the room.A few moments later, he is standing outside with Aiden. Deep in conversation. Leighton gets in his van and drives off.Where was he going? Where had Aiden been?Aiden appears. His grey eyes settle on me. I knew he regretted saving me.“Have you eaten?”It was the same routine.I shake my head.“You need to eat!”

Bella“What did you say?” I mutter in disbeliefShe stares with wide grey eyes, “Shit, you didn’t know!”“How am I supposed to know that? I’m seventeen. I don’t even have my Wolf. How do you know that? I’m not even supposed to have a mate.”“Leighton told me.”“Leighton?”“I thought you knew. You spend the whole day and night in his room. It made sense after Leighton told me the news. I thought you guys would be doing stuff.”“You are wrong! I’m a Creedance. We don’t have mates.”She shrugs her shoulders at me and mumbles something about how it was obvious.“Obvious? Is Aiden going around telling everyone that we are mates?”“Noooo. Just Leighton and then Leighton told me because I kept asking questions.”“Why didn’t Aiden say anything to me?”“Because you keep spouting the stuff about being cursed. That you won’t have a mate and all that. How do you think he feels?”“You’re screwing with me, aren’t you? Some kind of game, to try and prevent me from running.”She shakes her head.“Thi

AidenShe rakes her fingers through her copper hair as she climbs the stairs in front of me. Bella was annoyed with me. She lets out growls of frustration trying to put her anger into words. Halle was swearing at me through mind link too.“I wasn’t doing anything wrong!” Bella snaps as she reaches my door.“I don’t want to hear it.”She spins around to glare at me. “Halle pulled me into her room.”“I have already told you once, you need to stay away from my sister.”“She knows I’m sorry for trying to strangle her.” She folds her arms across her chest. Her golden eyes narrow as she glares at me, blocking my bedroom door. “She knows I wasn’t in the right frame of mind. That it was a mistake!”“I don’t care. You stay clear of her. That’s an order.”“You are not my Alpha.” Her eyes are almost slits as she continues to hold her spot in front of the door. “I don’t have to listen to you.”“You’re right. I’m not. So first thing tomorrow, I will drop you off at my parents house. Maybe you will

BellaTurning eighteen sucks. It was just a reminder of what I did to my own mother and how another shitty year had gone by.Every second that passed, his scent grew stronger. It was rich and warm like chocolate. The kind humans make at christmas. He had told me that mates had their own personal scent, but this was not what I was expecting.I stare at him as his grey eyes go to the clock on his desk. He couldn’t deny it. He could reject me, but he couldn’t deny it.His grey eyes come back to me as it hits him. Today was my birthday. The day I finally turned eighteen.“Why didn’t you tell me?” He mutters through clenched teeth. “Why didn’t you tell me your eighteenth was so close?”“Does it really matter?”“Yes.”“Why? You’re the one who has been pretending a bond between us doesn’t exist. Everything that comes out of your mouth is some sort of lie.”“It’s just….”I start laughing. My laugh grows until I’m almost hysterical. Tears run down my face as my stomach cramps from the insanit

Aiden“Are you serious?” She stares at me. Her golden orbs narrow as her arms cross over her chest.“I’m tired, you’re tired.”“I’m fine thanks, I’ve been longer without sleep. You can leave, go, get the whore back.”She was so angry with me, but she said it herself, she didn’t want to be mated. Why was she mad?“Fine!” I mutter, making my way to the door. She steps out of my path. I turn around and face her. “It wasn’t my plan. None of this was my plan. I can’t help it”She scowls and turns away. “And it’s not like we can even talk about it, is it? Because you shut down, giving me the silent treatment!”Her golden eyes flash back to me. Pure anger, I could feel it. Was she going to attack me again?Her hands ball up into fists. “Get out!”I hover for a moment. If she lets me get close enough, I could make her feel better.I take a step towards her and she snarls at me. I didn’t care. Her body stiffens up as I grab her wrists. Her golden eyes widened. It wasn’t her usual instincts.

BellaSmacking him in the chest, I scowl. “What the hell do you think you are doing?”His grey eyes roam my face. A flash of disappointment and a little annoyance.“Isn’t it what you wanted? Isn’t that why you are so mad with me, because I kissed another?”“No. The only thing I want is to kill my father.” I snapMy stomach twisted itself as I stared at him. The longer I looked, the more it felt like I couldn’t breathe, but not in a bad way. His warm chocolate scent was rich and enticing, swirling around me. Somehow, it was dragging me in. Making me think things that I shouldn’t.“I promised you that you could. That’s not going to change.”“When?” I mutter, tearing my eyes from his. I wasn’t used to this feeling. I had been trained to never let something get the better of my senses. But his scent was warm, intoxicating. It was clouding my brain.I had to get away from him so I could think.“I need the bathroom.” I mumble, refusing to look at him.Rising to my feet, he tells me that he

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

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

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

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
