The lost hybrid 299
I am not quite prepared for what is greeting me on the other side of the door. Instead of just walking through the door, I bust the entire thing down and walk right in. Simonetta jumps up but my eyes are not drawn to her. They are drawn to Hazel who is sitting on the ground as if she collapsed. Her hands are over her ears and she has tears streaming down her face. What have they been doing to her?"What the h*** do you think you are doing!" I yell at them.I forget to keep ahold of my power and hear my voice boom out much louder than I had planned. The ground begins shaking some more as I wait for them to begin explaining to me what they are doing to Hazel. Hazel has always been strong and free at heart. I hate seeing her on the ground trembling over some relationship that they have no right to judge her on."We have found out that Hazel has been having relations with a werewolf. Not just any werewolf but a teenager at that. These abominations are going to have to stop. Today!" Simone

It takes far too long to get Hazel to calm down enough to talk to me coherently. She cries silently for a when I tried to talk to her. Eventually, I am able to talk to her without her crying or breaking down right away. Seeing her like this makes me angry. To destroy someone's spirit this way is beyond wrong. There is no reason to do this to anybody."Hazel, hun, what happened? I don't like seeing you this way. I am so sorry I was not here when they decided to go on the attack. They were bound to do it eventually, they just needed a reason. They were not supposed to hurt you though. They were supposed to come after me. Only me." I tell her while rubbing her back.I am so upset by the situation that I am almost in tears myself. Not sad tears but angry tears. It really irks me that they would be willing to hurt an innocent, young witch just to get back at me. Not all of them were against me but not a single one tried to stop what was happening until Safiya finally snapped.That catalyst

As soon as I give him the go ahead, Dante rushes over to check on me and even Hazel. He has heard me speak of her often enough to know that she means something to me. Hazel was slightly taken aback by the Alpha of the pack coming to check on her. Still, she takes it in stride as she finishes calming down. I create another bed for her in one of the spare rooms so that she can sleep up here and away from everyone for a couple of nights. I even went so far as to add her specific signature to the door so she will not need me to get in.Once she settles herself in her temporary room, Dante and I find ourselves alone. It has been such a stressful day that I do not even know how to unwind from it. My witches were attacked in their own home. That is not something that can be taken lightly. They might be the Council but I am not going to allow this to happen again.I walk up to him and just collapse in his arms. He winds his arms around me as I bury my face into his chest. This is not how I ex

How can my father possibly be alive after all of these years? There is no way that he would not come to find me after everything that happened. He would have made sure that I was okay all of these years and felt loved. Everything would have been so different!"Laina, are you okay? I know that this is quite the bombshell but I could never tell you before." Elle says to me sounding panicked.Shifting my eyes to her, I look at her anew. How could she know this all of this time and never say anything to me before now? If she knew that he was alive then why did she not help him find me? Is he hurt? What could possibly keep him from me?"He can't be alive." I say softly. I am close to tears but there is no way that I am going to let her see them now. "Why do you say that? Do you really think that I would lie to you about something like that?" She asks me incredulously."Of course I have to believe that you would lie to me about that. If not then you have been lying to me all along about hi

"Get out of my room. I will talk to you some more tomorrow. I need some space for now." I tell Elle angrily.WIthout another word, she backs out of my room with her hands up. She must be able to tell just how upset I am with her right now. That is not just some small secret to keep. That is something major. "Are you alright?" Dante asks me."I feel like you have been saying that a lot today." I joke halfheartedly."Yes, well, you have had one heck of a day. For a minute there I was not sure that you were even going to respond." He says sounding extremely concerned.He grabs one of my hands again and begins to rub the back of it with his thumb. I slowly start to relax as I focus on the feeling of his finger drawing circles on my had. No matter how bad or crazy my day is, he somehow always finds a way to calm me down. Even if it is just by rubbing the back of my hand."For a moment I did not think I could respond. My mind went blank. It was impossible for me to think or even focus on w

I ended up crying myself to sleep for the first time as an adult. I alternated between being excited about the possibility of seeing my father and unable to wait to go get him, to being terrified that no matter what he will not remember me, to crying again because my entire day was just too much. I have prided myself on keeping my cool up since being mated to Dante but today was just too much. Finally, I have reached my breaking point.Now, I am trying to figure out how to go down to breakfast and face the Council again. I am not quite sure that I am ready to see Simonetta's face again. It will be interesting to hear if anything else happened after I brought Hazel up here. I just happen to know that with everything that happened last night, I am a little surprised that the house is even still standing."You are not really going to let them get to you are you? You are better than all of them. It is not like you really need their approval." Dante says to me when he looks at my face.My

Even though the Council members were quiet during breakfast, there is no way that it could last all day. I am honestly a little shocked when we finish breakfast and nobody has said a word. What could be keeping them so quiet? I know that they have plenty to say.I do not have to wait long to hear them start bringing up last night though. As I walk out of the dining area, Safiya rushes up to me. "Laina, the Council wishes to speak to you." She tells me simply before walking towards their quarters once again.Does that mean that she considers herself a part of the Council still? It seemed like she was drifiting away from it but maybe they do not have any other options to fill her spot? I believe that she said that only family members can take a role on the Council but there has to be some type of fail safe in case something like this happens. Might as well get this over with I guess. I already proved to them and myself that there is not much they can do to harm me. Thanks to the Moon

Safiya is looking more and more please as I continue on with my tirade. I knew that she did not agree with what she was saying. I am going to have to find out how they made her say those things. She was definitely on my side last night. "This is not how things are going to go anymore. You might run this Coven but we are above all of the Covens. You are going to take this punishment as nobody is above punishment from us. Not even Safiya here." Simonetta says with a smirk.She must be getting some of her snarkiness back finally. Good, I was starting to think that this was going to be a boring meeting. It is no fun when they do not fight back. It was almost too easy."I will agree to your punishments when you can prove that it is something that the Moon Goddess wishes. She is the only authority that I see. The rest of you are just some witches that were born into a role that has lost its way. This Council was not created to lord over all of the witch Covens. It was made to keep them all
