All Chapters of The Hybrid's Hunted Mate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Tori's POV“Hey what is it?” Hanzo quickly kneels down beside me. I instinctively push myself beneath him terrified of wolves being nearby. My heart pounds and I whimper hearing them howl again, all the hair on my body begins to stand on end.“You were chased into that trap, how old are you?” Hanzo’s tone turns to anger. His dark green eyes begin to glow making me whimper becoming a little afraid of him.‘It’s ok answer him, he won’t hurt us. His wolf won’t let him,’ Reika urges me to tell Hanzo what he wants to know. “I just turned 18, they want me for their Alpha,” I whine while looking down and away feeling ashamed that I was chased into that trap after running for so long.“Hey, you’re safe here,” his warm hand gently touches the bottom of my jaw, I gasp at the warm tingling sensation. “I will explain, for now come up here where you’ll be safe and I’ll take care of these wolves.” Hanzo suggests, cautiously he picks me up, pulls me close, then begins to carry me upstairs towards th

Hanzo's POV‘Mate is still nervous, Reika says she afraid still,’ Valko watches me untangle Tori’s fiery red hair. ‘I can’t make her tell me,’ I growl at Valko not wanting to overstep with my already nervous mate.“Shit I’m sorry, I wasn’t growling at you. Valko won’t shut up, he’s worried about you,” I apologize when I notice Tori trembling. I gently touch her shoulder causing her to flinch, my heart sink as I apologize again, “I’m so sorry.”“It’s not just you, I’m sorry I scare so easily. I’m not afraid of you, before I had no idea why, now I think it’s because you’re my mate. Reika keeps telling me you would never hurt me and that you and Valko will do anything to protect us.” Tori looks back at me over her shoulder, I nod while brushing my thumb across her jaw.“Reika is right, Valko and I will protect you no matter what. You don’t have to apologize for being scared it’s clear you’ve been through quite a bit. Please know you can tell me anything and it won’t change how I feel abo

Tori's POV“Here,” Hanzo pulls me through the door to a very large deck. He turns me to show me the house is on the lake. Looking out on the deck I see a large pergola covering what appears to be a bed that rests against the house sitting across from a wraparound couch with a fire pit in the middle.“This is amazing, what else is here?” I ask, looking down at my hand in Hanzo’s. It takes a lot for me not to pull away as my hand sweats from anxiety building deep in my stomach. “I’ve got some ducks and geese for eggs and meat,” Hanzo answers and points towards the side of the house.“It’s amazing,” I walk to the edge of the deck to see it is built over the water. ‘We should go swim,’ Reika suggests as I nod, looking out at the inviting lake. ‘It does look nice,’ I agree with my wolf then look up at Hanzo wondering if he would swim with me or watch.“I like it, it’s simple and there is also a garden,” he smiles and watches me as I let go of his hand and take off the tank top and boxers.

Tori's POV“What do you need?” Hanzo asks after a few minutes of me staring off into space. “I don’t know,” I answer, feeling relieved that I do have him in my corner.“If you think of anything, tell me,” he reassures, I smile down at him enjoying how much he calms me. “I will, how did you get your scars?” I ask hesitantly I trace my fingers down the scar on his hip.“Pack fight,” Hanzo answers, pulling me over him where we are now sitting up against the headboard. “Really?” I ask watching him in concern as I try to get comfortable in his lap despite feeling uneasy.“Yeah it was intense,” Hanzo answers. “How did that happen?” I question, nervous to push him too far.“I got myself into trouble,” he admits. ‘Leave it Tori, it’s a bad memory,’ Reika growls at me, already more protective of our mate than I expected. “I can only imagine the trouble you get yourself into,” I tease making light of Hanzo’s reluctance to talk about what happened.“How old are you?” I change the subject then cl

Tori's POVAfter going for a hunt and relaxing out on the deck in the morning, Hanzo takes me to a local store to buy clothes. The first place Hanzo takes me is to the shoe department so I am able to walk around and shop the store. Once he found a pair of fitting flip flops, he leaves me on my own, while he pays for the pair I’m wearing.I walk around looking at shoes, finding a pair of boots that have a zipper and small heal. After finding the proper size I sit down and try them on, I notice someone watching me. I pull my sandal off and a different woman approaches me startling me a little.“Can I help you?” I question, uncomfortable with having someone so close. “Sorry to startle you, here you need socks to try on shoes, they have these to use,” the woman hands me a weird sock made out of a thin stretchy material.“It’s why she’s staring,” she admits pointing to the other woman as I put the sock on. “Thank you,” I smile then look up and begin to struggle pulling the boot on. “You’re
