The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 156: Strained promises
RaelynnI paced back and forth across the small confines of my room, the weight of everything crushing me like an anvil on my chest. My mind raced with thoughts of how to avoid the inevitable. Tomorrow, they would demand my blood again. The twisted ritual. The pain. I shivered at the thought of being strapped down, my veins tapped like some sort of resource to be extracted. The last time had been unbearable, and the mere idea of it happening again made bile rise in my throat."What the hell am I supposed to do, Alison?" I asked, my voice quivering with frustration. My footsteps grew faster, more erratic. The familiar scent of herbs and incense in my room did little to calm me down this time. Alison was perched on the edge of my bed, watching me with a concerned expression. Her usually calm demeanor was shaken too; I could see it in the way her fingers twitched with uncertainty. She had always been the rock I could lean on, but even she was beginning to feel the pressure."Rae, you
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 157: Unspoken sounds
RaelynnThe early morning sun bathed the corridors of the facility in a soft golden light as I and Alison made our way to the rec room. The quiet murmur of conversation echoed off the walls, mixing with the occasional shuffle of interns moving between tasks. I glanced at Alison, who seemed unusually energetic for someone who hadn't had their coffee yet.“You’re way too chipper for this early,” I teased.Alison smirked. “I live for the mornings. Gives me time to gather my wits before the madness starts. Unlike you, Miss Night Owl.”I rolled my eyes, but a smile tugged at my lips. The moment we step into the rec room, I can feel the hum of tension in the air. Alison and I exchange glances, and we both zero in on a group of interns huddled around something posted on the wall. There’s a faint buzz of excitement and dread weaving through their low murmurs. Curiosity pulls us in, and we stride over.“What’s going on?” Alison asks, stepping closer to the crowd. Her voice is light, but ther
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 158: The Castle of Light
RaelynnAs Reuben’s lips pressed softly against mine, my entire body stiffened. I wasn’t prepared for this. The warmth of the moment, the softness of the fireflies dancing around us, the perfect setting…it all felt wrong. Everything in me screamed to pull away.Without hesitation, I broke the kiss, stepping back, my breath ragged. Reuben, clearly confused, tried to move closer, his hands gently reaching for me again. "Raelynn, I…" he began, but I immediately raised my hand to stop him, my palm creating a wall between us.“I can’t,” I whispered, shaking my head.His brow furrowed in concern. “Why? Raelynn, what’s wrong?”I stepped back further, shaking my head more vigorously now. “I just can’t. Please, don’t.”The words felt heavy on my tongue, and I turned away from him, unable to face the confusion and hurt that I knew was written all over his face. My mind raced with thoughts that collided like cars in a pileup, none of them making sense. I thought about my life, my mark, Lorenz
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 159: Lost in Shadows
RaelynnMy eyes flutter open, the blurriness fading as I try to focus on where I am. The world around me feels foreign, unfamiliar. I blink rapidly, my mind sluggish and hazy. The last thing I remember is… what? My thoughts scramble, reaching for some sort of memory, but nothing comes. My heart begins to race as I realize I can’t recall the last thing that happened to me.I push myself up into a sitting position, my head heavy and spinning slightly. Where am I? A soft rustling reaches my ears, and I glance around, scanning my surroundings. The sight that greets me is one I don’t expect.I’m in the woods.Trees tower over me, their branches swaying gently with the wind. Leaves scatter across the ground, crunching beneath my hands as I steady myself. Birds chirp somewhere in the distance, and the faint scent of earth and pine fills my nose. I blink, shaking my head. Why am I here? How did I end up in the middle of the woods?I try to recall any sort of memory, something that would ex
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 160: Racing against time
Alpha LorenzoFor three long days, I’ve known where Raelynn is. But something…some inexplicable force, has kept me from reaching her. The knowledge of her whereabouts burns in the back of my mind like a curse, always present but just out of reach. Every time I’ve tried to head toward the D.S.I.R., something comes up. Pack issues, council matters, unexpected visitors… it’s as if the universe itself is conspiring to keep me from her. But today, today is different.Nothing will stop me from seeing my mate.I pull on my clothes with the urgency of a man on fire, the fabric barely brushing my skin before I’m reaching for my keys and rushing out the door. My mind is a mess, thoughts jumbled and chaotic, all of them focused on Raelynn. I don’t even remember locking the front door as I hop into my car and start the engine. The rumble of the engine is drowned out by the pounding of my heart as I speed down the road.I drive in silence, my grip on the steering wheel so tight my knuckles ach
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 161: The Darkening
Alpha LorenzoThe door to Raelynn’s room was already ajar as I burst inside, my heart pounding in my chest. I could sense something was terribly wrong. The air was thick with an unnatural tension, and every instinct I had screamed at me to protect her.And then I saw her.A woman was crouched over Raelynn’s unconscious body, dragging her across the floor as if she were nothing more than a sack of potatoes. My mate…my beautiful, strong mate…was limp and helpless, her body a marionette in the hands of this stranger. Fury shot through me, white-hot and uncontrollable. My wolf snarled within me, desperate to tear this intruder apart.The woman…a doctor by the looks of her, dressed in a white coat…seemed oblivious to my presence. She heaved Raelynn’s body onto the bed with little regard for her comfort, and I watched in horror as she pulled out a syringe, plunging it into Raelynn’s arm. Blood flowed into the tube as the woman filled the syringe.For a moment, all I could see was red.In
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 162: Darkness of Sleep
Alpha LorenzoAs I hung up the phone with Conan, a deep breath escaped my chest. Every nerve in my body felt taut, ready to snap at any second. Valentine had dared to target Raelynn, and the rage that simmered beneath my skin had only been held back by the fragile rhythm of her heartbeat. It was that steady thrum, that faint rise and fall of her chest, that kept me from giving in to the primal urge to rip apart anything that stood between me and her safety.When I pushed open the door and reentered the room, I immediately noticed Alison slumped over in a chair by Raelynn’s bedside. Her body had leaned dangerously far to the side, and if I hadn’t caught her just in time, she would’ve toppled over. She jerked awake, her eyes blinking rapidly as she tried to shake off the exhaustion that weighed her down.“Alison,” I murmured gently, straightening her in the chair. “You need to get some rest.”She shook her head stubbornly, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand. “I’m fine. I’ll st
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 163: Face what came next
RaelynnThe night was endless.I could feel the wind tearing at my fur, every nerve in my body screaming for me to stop, to breathe, but I couldn’t. I couldn’t afford to. I was running for my life. My paws slammed against the earth in rapid succession, the sounds of the forest blurring into a cacophony of rushing trees, snapping branches, and the thudding of my own heartbeat. Behind me, they were closing in…the scent of blood and danger sharp in the air, drawing nearer with every breath I took.The darkness around me twisted and pulsed, alive with shadows that seemed to stretch out claws toward me. It felt like the world was collapsing, shrinking, funneling me toward some unknown end. I didn’t know who was chasing me, only that they wanted me dead.I darted left, narrowly avoiding a sharp dip in the ground. My wolf instincts were in full control, guiding me through the treacherous terrain. But even as I ran, something felt wrong. The ground beneath my paws was slick and wet, more l

The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Epilogue
RaelynnThe sun shone through the thick velvet curtains of our room and illuminated everything with a warm, golden light. The warmth of it kissed my skin, reminding me that this was no dream...this was my reality.A reality that only a few years ago, seemed like a world impossible to conceive, completely shattered into pieces that I would never be able to pick up. Yet here I am, so much stronger and smarter and more at peace than I have ever been in my life.As I lay in bed, listening to the soft rustling of the leaves outside and the distant chirping of birds welcoming the new day, I couldn’t help but reflect on how far I’ve come. The memories of my past, once sharp and painful, now seemed like faded shadows in the back of my mind.The pain of loss and betrayal, the paralyzing fear that I experienced during those days of darkness seemed like a dream…a nightmare that I had finally woken up from.My life had changed so much since those days. I thought of the darkness that had so nearly
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 204: The consequences
Alpha LorenzoI wait outside the door to the dungeon the cold stone walls closing in around me. My hear beats faster the rage just below the surface.I need to do this. For Raelynn. For my pack. For all those who have been tormented by the life of valentine and his warped disciples.The door squeaks and I enter the somewhat dark hallway. It is damp and musty in there, with the drip of water bouncing off the walls.The guards nod their heads to me, with a very serious look on their faces. They know why I’m here. They know what I’m about to do.Valentine's cell is all the way at the end of the dungeon, away from all the others. I would have wanted him alone, removed from the rest of his nasty little gang. The man deserves no comfort, no company. Not after everything he’s done.I stand before his cell holding the cold iron bars. Valentine sits in there, perched on a little bench with his hands cuffed together in front of him.The look of pride and arrogance is no longer there, but instea
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 203: Raelynn is safe
Alpha LorenzoWe step outside of the building and the heat from the fire engulfs us, and at that moment, I feel Raelynn's body drop from my arms. She's out of breath, out of energy, and I pick her up and carry her the remainder of the way.“Conan, take care of Valentine and his scientists, I shout over my shoulder as we make our way to the waiting SUVs. “Round them all up. No one gets away.”Conan nods, his expression grim. “You got it, Alpha. We’ll make sure they pay for what they’ve done.”I nod, my focus on Raelynn as I lay her gently in the back seat of one of the SUVs. She’s unconscious, her breathing shallow, and I feel a surge of panic. I can’t lose her. Not now.“Go! I shout to the driver, and the SUV speeds away from the burning building, the flames reflected in the rearview mirror. I cradle Raelynn in my arms, my heart beating hard against my chest.“We’re almost there, I whisper, brushing a strand of hair from her face. “Just hold on a little longer, love. You’re going to b
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 202: Resurgence
Alpha LorenzoSo I pound my fist on the aluminum door as hard as I can, and I keep pounding and the door starts to cave in. Every hit vibrates up my arm, but I bite down on my tongue and continue. Raelynn is on the other side. I can feel her presence through our bond, faint but unmistakable.My entire body is on fire from the exertion, beads of sweat drip from my face into my eyes, but I will not give up. I can’t. Not when I’m this close. The dent in the door is minor, almost unnoticeable, but it is there. So I put all of my strength, and my anger, and my hopelessness into one last punch and I hope that it is.Then, without warning, a rush of warmth washes over the door. I yank my hand back, startled. The metal is red hot and I have to back up so I don't get burnt.I stare in disbelief as fire dances around the border of the door and the metal contorts and melts like some unseen force is wrenching it asunder.“What the hell…” I mutter, my eyes wide. This isn’t just fire; it’s somethin
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 201: The escape
RaelynnI’ ve been planning this for weeks. The smallest mistakes could cost me everything, so I’ve waited, watching, studying every guard’s routine. I’ve observed their movements, noted their shifts, even the way they carry themselves when they think no one is looking.One guard, in particular, caught my eye…small, unassuming, always on edge as if the very walls were closing in on him. I could see it in his eyes, the fear, the sweat above his brow whenever he was around me. And that made him my target.Well, this morning he was on walking post by my cell and I just knew it was time. He did not even realize how easily he was being played with.The shadows that had been my friends in darkness reached out to take his thoughts, pushing his focus away. A ripple of my fingers and the shadows told him of distant cares and his mind floated just enough for me to move.I moved silently, my fingers deft and quick, slipping into his pocket as he turned away. The cold metal of the key against my
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 200: The hunt
Alpha LorenzoI can't remember the last time I was this tense. The past few months have been a nightmare, each day worse than the one before. I can barely sleep, my thoughts constantly consumed by Raelynn. My mate. My Luna. She’s out there, somewhere, suffering God knows what, and it’s my fault. I let her down, failed to protect her. And now, I’m desperate. Desperate to make things right, to find her, to bring her home. I’ve spent every waking moment planning, strategizing, preparing for this. There’s no room for error. Not this time.We’re in the war room, a dimly lit space in the pack house that’s become our headquarters for this mission. Conan, Alison, Ashley, and I are huddled around a large table, a detailed map of the Dawn Scientific Institute for Research spread out before us. The DSIR is an imposing fortress, heavily guarded, and getting in won’t be easy. But we have no choice. Raelynn is in there. I can feel it in my bones. “Alright,” I say, my voice steady but hard. “We

The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 198: Shadows of revenge
RaelynnDarkness. It has been my constant companion for what feels like an eternity. My sense of time in this cold, damp cell is lost, days and nights running together in one continuous void of nothingness.I have no idea how long it’s been since I was tossed into this hell, since I was deprived of my dignity and my wolf. I don’t even know if it matters anymore. This place, this emptiness, it consumes you.I resemble now and again when the guards bring out their needles I test myself to see if I can remember what I was like before all this. I try to remember what it felt like to be free, to be whole.But those memories are as fragments of a dream. They are so beautiful and so elusive, and they dissolve before I can catch them. I have nothing but the pain to grasp on to. It’s the only thing that feels real anymore.I roll over on the cold floor and the chains that bind my wrists and ankles rattle. My body hurts in places I never knew I had.They don't feed me very much. Enough to keep
The Supreme Alpha’s Hybrid Mate Chapter 197: The frantic search
Alpha LorenzoIt's been a week since Alexis was incarcerated and I discovered the truth. A full week of searching and scouring every inch of our territory, and then some. The feeling of desperation claws at my insides, a gnawing ache that won’t go away no matter how many leads we chase, no matter how many faces I growl at in frustration. Every day without her feels like an eternity, every moment a fresh wound reopening. Max is restless, prowling just beneath the surface, ready to break free and tear apart anyone who gets in my way.I shouldn’t be here, pacing in my study with my phone clenched in my hand. I should be out there, tracking her down myself. But even alphas have duties, responsibilities, and meetings they can’t avoid. Today, it’s the damn council meeting, and if I don’t show up, there’ll be more questions than I’m prepared to answer. I need to keep up appearances. I need to make them believe everything is fine, that my world isn’t shattering around me piece by piece.“E
