All Chapters of The Accidental Hybrid and The Betrothed: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

"Gold?" Selene touches the prison bars holding the dragon. "It's a dragon's weakness. Quite a mystery. They are obsessed with the thing, and it can weaken them." Veronica muses. "Open the cell." She parks at the cell guard. The guard scoffs, "We don't allow her kind down here. However, if she wants to offer dinner..." The guard's nostrils lift into the air, inhaling Selene's scent. "You would do well to keep your hands off Lord Jones's promised!" Veronica warns. The guard looks incredulous. "Yes, he is mated to a wolf. A witch-wolf hybrid, if we are specific. Now allow us to pass." The guard hangs his head and opens the cell door. Huddled in the corner is a large male with a strange aura. He glares at the females. "Vampires." he snarls at Veronica. His eyes shift to Selene and then fall to her slight bump. "A pregnant wolf." The dragon shifter stands, hobbling towards Selene. " You are about four months along if my senses are correct." He kneels at her feet, sniffing

"When do we set out?" This is the only question Diana asks when Selene catches her up on what Drogo told her. "We? Diana, you're the Luna!" Selene protests. "Matias and your pack need you!"  "And so does my sis-in-law. Matias nor dad will ever agree to help you! "Selene can't help but appreciate Diana's anger for her sake. Other than Heather, Selene had never had female companionship. Diana was turning into one of her best friends. "You're right. But I think Liam and Toby will be on board..." "How can you be so naive, Selene?" Diana cuts her off. "They are Beta and Delta of the pack! They are just as possessive and dominating as Mathias. You are the prophecy, and it's your right to fight!" Diana looked like she was on the cusp of a tangent but held back for Selene's sake. "Alright, Di, you convin

"We need to go!" Selene hisses into the sitting room. Drogo had healed within the hour, and Diana enlisted the help of Veronica. It hadn't been easy to distract Mathias, Liam, and Toby. Still, between Diana and Selene, they were able to get them away from the pack land. Veronica waited by the door, the keys to a large black SUV in hand. Drogo walks out the door, climbing into the back of the car while Selene sits in the front. Veronica pulls out of the driveway, the guards not stoping the vampire from exiting the gate. "That was easy," Selene commented as the car pulled onto the road. "Ai. Imagine because they already knew I was here." Veronica replies. "Are you sure you're ready for this lass? Do you have all your magic sorted?" Selene leans her head back on the headrest. She had a couple of magic lessons with Maddie the last several weeks, but her practice had gone by the wayside since Jones dragg

"I brought you here with my magic. It is an illusion." Selene watches Luke's eyes for any reaction. "Also, side note: I'm the Queen of Thorne Castle. Not sure if I still will be after today. He will likely kick me out.""No, he will likely lock you in his room for years." Veronica barks out a laugh. She turns to Luke " Drogo, one of the dragons, brought us. When we found you, you were lost to bloodlust. Or so I thought before this lass proved me wrong." "Thank you for your loyalty to Selene. But, unfortunately, your services will no longer be needed since I have claimed her." Luke smiles affectionately at his mate and fingers his mark on her delicate neck. However, as the minutes tick by, concern begins to grow: Jones' mark is still prominent on Selene's skin. "Why isn't Jones mark disappearing?""Well..you see." Selene's fingers hand with the hairs on Luke's neck. " When Nora marked you, and you gave up your mate claim, the goddesses granted another mate who turned ou

When Toby discovered Selene had gone to rescue Luke, he lost himself to his worry. The mate he had been waiting for 26 years had put herself in danger, and the Delta could do nothing to protect her. While his brother, Liam, threatened to turn their mate's behind red, Toby shifted to his wolf and spent the day running. That evening he returned to the packhouse to a very irate vampire alpha threatening to take Selene from the pack and lock her in the dungeons."Touch her and die vampire!" Liam snarls. Selene's family and Jones met in Matias's office to discuss Selene and Diana's impromptu rescue mission.Jones gruffly laughs. "I'd like to see you try, mutt. You lot could not keep her safe! She is a target, yet she has free will here, able to come and go as she pleases! I'm willing to do what none of you are willing to: lock her in a cell and throw away the key until the pup is born and that which is dead!""I won't allow it! Selene is my sister and a member of this pack!
