Hybrid Aria 1-4

“Reika” I tell her and she reaches forward, grabbing my hand from my side and shaking it. I stare at our hands and she gives them a soft squeeze.

“You’re his aunty?” I ask, a little shocked, she looked younger than him.

“Yep, so you’re related to Kade?” She asks, sitting down at the table. Ryker nudges me toward the table and I sit down in the chair next to her.

“I think so?” I ask looking at Ryker who nods.

“You do have a similar scent, not the same but slightly similar to my mate” She says. I stared at her confused.

“My husband is Kades son, but he isn’t like you. My husband is a werewolf, not a hybrid. So I am guessing you are a product of either him directly after he figured out how to trigger the hybrid gene, or you’re a mutation like me” I didn’t understand what she meant.

“You might have to explain in simpler terms lil” Ryker says, patting her shoulder.

“Okay, so basically my husband is your brother, or half brother. He was born full werewolf, Kade didn’t figure out how to awaken the hybrid gene till after he produced my husband. You are a hybrid, so I am assuming you were born or made after he figured out the gene, how old is she?” Lily asks, looking at Ryker.

“Not 100% sure but we think around 22 to 25” He says and I nod.

“So you didn’t know kade then?” She asks.

“Humans impregnated the wolves apparently” Ryker answers.

“I met him though I can’t remember when, my wolf would know” I told her but I still couldn’t feel her.

“That must have been around the time we went to war with him” I heard her whisper to Ryker who nodded.

“Why can’t I feel my wolf?” I ask looking at Ryker, suddenly feeling unsettled within myself like a piece of me was missing, a huge piece of me missing making me uneasy. He rubs my arms, sparks flying everywhere. My body surprisingly relaxes under his touch and I lean against him before realising what I was doing, my eyes snapping open to his Aunty staring at me, a small smile on her lips.

“You’re supposed to feel like that, I get this is new to you in a way, but your mate won’t hurt you”

“He cut off my toes” I blurted out at her words. She looks at him appalled.

“You left that part out of the conversation” She says to him glaring at him.

“They grew back and I apologised” He says, making me look at him.

“Besides, her wolf said we are even after Reika killed me” He says with a shrug.

“When did you speak to my wolf? And I never killed you” I tell him.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“You did, took out my entire pack along with me when you drained me. As for your wolf the reason you can’t feel her is because I gave you a sedative”

“You drugged me?” I ask and I feel myself hyperventilate. He drugged me, he took my wolf.

“I am trying to help you” He whispers next to my ear.

“He isn’t lying, your wolf is like mine, has full reign when you don’t, it’s just a precaution for now. He hasn’t hurt your wolf. I promise he won’t hurt you. You may not trust him but you can trust me” She says, grabbing my hand.

“Well I need to head back to the hotel, but I will come over tomorrow with Damien and the kids” The woman says standing up, rubbing my cheek with her hand.

“Damien?” I ask, wondering why that name sounds familiar to me.

“Yes my mate, and your half brother, you can meet your niece and nephews too” She says.

“You have pups?” I ask excitedly and she nods.

“They aren’t really pups anymore but yes, I have kids” Ryker gives her a hug before walking off with her while I sit at the table. I hear the front door close before hearing footsteps coming back toward me.

“Are you hungry?’ He asks, coming over to me. He rubs his hands up my arms.

“Why do you keep touching me?” I ask, shrugging him off.

“Sorry, I don’t mean to, your scent is stronger now I have marked you, the pull to you is stronger” He admits and I feel a strange feeling hit me.

“You want to touch me?” I ask confused,

“Yes, but I won’t if you don’t want me to” He says kneeling in front of me. Did I want him to touch me? I know I wanted to touch him earlier but now I felt all over the place. Like a war was raging in my head. He laughs, and I look at him and realise that was the first time I had actually heard him laugh, he looked younger.

“I will make you something to eat, while you decide if you want me to touch me or not” He says with a chuckle. Wait he could hear me, can he stop himself from hearing my thoughts.

“Yes I can, but I find it quite entertaining?” He says grabbing something from the pantry.

“Well can you try not to, it’s awkward, especially when I can’t hear you”

“I can only hear you when you’re close, so I will try to block you out” He says.

“Why are you being nice?” I ask, worried it was some trick.

“Because I was wrong, I see that now. I never should have hurt you Reika. And I won’t again, I promise” he says and my stomach does a little flip.

“You won’t hurt me?” I ask.

“No, I never should have in the first place. Besides I think Tyson may cut my throat in my sleep if I tried” He says.

“Damn straight I would” Says Tyson overhearing our conversation as he comes into the kitchen.

“What are you making?” Tyson asks him,

“Not sure, trying to find something she might eat” Ryker tells him as he pulls more stuff from the pantry. Tyson walks over and grabs a box down.

“She will eat that” He says before showing me the box. It was that macaroni stuff. Ryker looks at me and I nod. He opens the box, pouring it in a saucepan.

“Have you given her more yet?” Tyson asks him, making me look at him.
