Hybrid Aria 1-4

Ryker POV

Leaving I had this nagging feeling I shouldn’t leave her alone with them. Her wolf had more control over her then I thought. Reminding me of my aunt Lily’s wolf Layla. She used to be able to force the shift too before Lily reigned her in. I could tell Reika was warming up to me, especially with the fact she doesn’t jump everytime I come too close, or shy away from me. Her wolf however is something else entirely. I could almost feel her wolf when it was on the surface, her scent changing slightly and becoming stronger. Brax has been trying to communicate with her but failing.

At first I thought it was because we haven’t marked her, because she was a mutation but now I am not so sure. It is almost like pushing on a barrier, one her wolf put up, blocking Brax from her. Driving to work I pull up in the underground carpark. Zane is waiting for me as I pull into the parking space.

“What are you doing here?’

“Come to give you warning Alpha ” He says, turning his head in submission and baring his neck to me. I press my lips in a line knowing whatever it is, he is about to say I won’t like.

“Your parents know about your mate, I swear I said nothing” He says. I growl frustrated. Great just what I need my parents meddling in my relationship with a wolf, I am still not sure I can keep.

“That’s not all” He says and my eyes snap to him. Zane steps back and I know he can see my wolf peering at him.

“Your parents are coming down in a couple of days to meet her”

“How did they find out?”

“Arial” He states. I should have known better than to trust her not to open her big mouth. Mum knows I won’t travel around with she-wolves; she must have figured it out when Arial told her I was seen with another woman.

“We will deal with it later, I have a meeting” I tell him.

“Want me to attend?” He asks and I shrug. Zane follows me to the lift and up to my office.

“Who are you meeting with?” He asks.

“A rogue named Tim, I have alerted the northside to allow him in” I tell him and he nods. Zane knows better than to question me, I wait in my office. Tim is meeting me at 10 AM. As the time draws nearer though I start to feel anxious. When he is half an hour late, I decided to ring him. The phone rang out.

I look at the clock.

“You sure he was meeting you at 10” Zane asks looking at his watch. I nod.

“He is supposed to have information on the humans, heping the hunters” I tell him and he nods.

“Maybe he has been captured, it’s nearly 11” Zane says.

“I will give him half an hour more,” I tell Zane.

“I will contact the border patrol to see if they have seen him yet” I nod, also trying his number again. The phone doesn’t even ring like it was turned off, Elias specifically told him to keep it charged and on when he gave it to him for me.

Zane walks back into my office, alarm on his face.

“They said they haven’t seen him, that no one has requested to cross the borders. I don’t think your rogue is coming Alpha”

Pulling my phone from my pocket, I call Elias. He answers after a couple of rings.

“Hey Ryker” He answers.

“Has Tim left yet?” I ask him and the phone goes silent.

“What do you mean?” he asks.

“Tim was meant to meet me here today, didn’t he tell you”

“He said the meeting was yesterday, he left yesterday morning, haven’t you seen him”

“No, it is today, he should be staying with you”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Ah Alpha, Tim was quite adamant that he had to see you yesterday after he heard from the humans, he should have reached your pack last night” I hang up, what was this rogue up to, but more importantly where was he, he hasn’t stepped over the border I would have been alerted, does that mean the humans got to him before he could inform me of their plans?

“What do you want to do, Alpha?” Zana asks and I look at my father’s best friend.

“Alert patrols to remain alert, I have a feeling something has happened to him, tighten security. I need to go home and check on my brothers and mate” I tell him getting up and walking out. Instead of waiting for the lift I take the stairs racing down them. Brax pressing against my skin, and I could feel he was on edge. Something felt wrong, yet no one had noticed anything out of the ordinary or I would have been alerted.

Getting in the car, I start the engine tearing out of the parking lot so fast, the car scrubs out as I pull onto the road heading home. Pressing my foot on the pedal harder when I leave the city limits. I was halfway home when I heard my brother’s voice flit through my head, panicked.

“Ryker, Reika” He mindlinks before the mindlink drops. Pain radiating down my limbs as I feel my brothers drop, feel searing pain through my body making me pull over. Reika my brother said and I knew that she did something, I should have known better than to trust her with them.

I could feel my brothers growing weaker as I tried to mindlink them, get something from them as I jumped from my car shifting before tearing through the forest racing home. I feel my brothers growing weaker before feeling nothing from them, my blood boiling with intense rage. I was going to fucking kill her.
