The Alpha's Hybrid Mate

by C Davis

  “Trust me, he is.” He growled in my ear, holding me protectively in his arms. “He’s not going to touch you. Ever.”

  He pulled me tighter as he growled out the words. I felt something spark inside of me. I couldn’t explain it, but he answered for me.

  “The bond is getting stronger.” He told me running his hand up and down my back. I felt my body tingling, making me gasp in shock. “You can feel it, yes?”

  Yes. I feel it and it’s making my body heat up. “Yes.”

  Placing his lips on my neck, I hear him groan. “I can sense it. Your body heat is rising.”

  He removed his lips from my neck and looked deep in my eyes.

  “This is where I’ll put my mark.” He ran his fingers over the very spot he just kissed.

  I felt a wave of confidence take over me. “Then, mark me.”

  “Are you sure, Nat?”

  “Mark me.”

  His teeth elongated and grazed my neck as if he’s giving me one last chance to back out. I nodded and his teeth sunk in my neck shooting pain in my body. My screams echoed through the house echoing off the walls. It hurt, but at the same time, it pleased me. My screams began to turn into moans. His teeth went deeper until he finally withdrew them and looked at me smiling with blood on his lips.

  “You’re mine now.” He said right as I felt my eyes closing, falling into the darkness.

  I touched my mark as I looked in the mirror. I was only out for an hour and when I asked him why it happened, he responded with everyone is different. I applied the last touches to my lipstick when I felt a presence behind me.

  “Staring is rude you know,” I told my brother, as he stared a hole in my back.

  “Did you two…?”

  I cut him off as my face blushed in embarrassment.

  “No! Just marked me.” I blurted out as my face blushed even more.

  “Okay. When it happens, I don’t want to be here. I couldn’t even bear the thought. Just gross. My sister and my best friend. Never mind.”

  I know it’s hard for him knowing that his beta and sister were soon going to be having sex. He hated the fact but allowed it. “I just came to tell you that Lana was looking for you. She said something about needing your help with something.” I nodded and he left me standing there wondering what she would need to talk to me about.

  I walked in and found her pacing back and forth upset about something.

  “I don’t know what to do!” She cried, pulling her hair in frustration. “What’s wrong?”

  She frowned and sank on the bed pulling her legs to her chest.

  “I-I think…” She struggled to find the words, but couldn’t. “You can’t tell anyone. Please, don’t tell your brother. I think I might be pregnant.”

  CHAPTER 14

  Lana

  I watched him as he barked orders out to his warriors and goodness, did it turn me on. The way he commanded them as his muscles flexed through his shirt made me wet in my panties and made me want him to take me over his desk. He continued barking orders and stopped mid-sentence and sniffed the air with red eyes finding mine. “Everyone out!”

  His wolf hasn’t taken over completely but wanted to come out and play. He swiveled his chair to face me and patted his leg motioning for me to sit. I could feel how wet my panties were and it only got wetter when he wanted me to straddle him.

  I lowered my body and rested my legs on each side of his making him growl. I could feel his hardness through his pants as I pressed my panties against his pants. His mouth found my lips and gripped my waist possessively as I moaned in his mouth. Our tongues curled together in perfect motion. He’s been hot, but not like this before.

  “You’re killing me!” Jaxson groaned, kissing down my neck.

  The way he claimed my body at this moment made me feel like my skin was on fire. I liked it too. What started in his chair at his desk immediately changed to us down to barely anything on his sofa.

  “Jaxson. I want you so bad.” I purred in his ear.

  I slipped my hand past the waistband of his boxers and gripped his cock as I rubbed the tip.

  He hissed out through his teeth. “Please, baby.”

  I loved it when he was at my mercy. It made me feel powerful having this fearless leader under my control. I pumped him, and he grunted with every jerk as I continued to pump him. I stood up and locked the door and unclipped my bra letting it hit the floor. Then I turned around, and slowly lowered my panties bending over giving a perfect view of my ass. I didn’t have time to respond because he swiped everything off his desk, and had me bent over it thrusting inside me.

  “Is this what you wanted, baby? For me to fuck you just like this?”

  “Yes!”

  His thrust became more fierce, and sloppier as he sucked on my neck.

  “Jaxson, oh god!”

  His fingers dug in my hips forcing him deeper and harder.

  I heard a knock at the door, but that didn’t stop him. He fucked me so hard I thought the desk was going to break.

  “Go away! I’m busy!” He screamed out as he twitched, and released his seed deep inside of me.

  “Shit! I’m coming!” He collapsed as he came down from his high and kissed my neck.

  “I love you so much. Now tell me were you going to tell me you thought you might be carrying my baby?”

  Did he know?

  He knelt and kissed my stomach. “I saw the pregnancy test package.”

  As we got dressed, another knock at the door startled us. “Just give me a damn minute!”

  I pulled his face down to meet my lips. “Jax, be nice.”

  I walked to the door unlocked it and opened it up to see Cole smirking. “I’ll bring you lunch baby. Maybe even something sweet.” I smiled innocently twirling a strand of my hair, but Jaxson knew better.

  I wasn’t innocent.

  I was being naughty.

  The day drug on painfully slow, and so I went to take his lunch to him early. I wished I hadn’t though. I heard Jaxson on the phone and he sounded angry. “I told you to find him. He couldn’t have gotten far!”

  Who the hell is he talking about?

  I shoved the door open and crossed my arms over my chest full of anger.

  “I have to go.” He tells me.

  His phone dropped from his hand and fell to the floor.

  “Who didn’t get far?”

  His face paled, and sweat began to bead on his forehead. “Lorenzo, he knows where you are.”

  Panic set in, and my body shook in fear. No. How the hell did he find me? I’ve only left the house once and that was to go have dinner at Jaxson’s parent's house.

  “Lana! Look at me, baby!”

  I pulled my hair pacing back and forth scared out of my mind. My vision blurred and felt dizzy. Everything around me spun, and then darkness came.

  I tried to open my eyes, but couldn’t. I tried to sit up, but there was a force holding me down. I was completely helpless and it seemed like the more I tried to fight I became weaker. I could hear everyone around me and tried to answer them. They couldn’t hear my cries as I tried to tell them I’m here.

  Jaxson was begging me. “Baby, wake up! I need to see those beautiful 'eyes again.”

  I’m right here, Jax.

  “Please baby, come back to me!”

  I wanted to scream out to him. I could hear him cursing the pack doctor and then pounding his fist on the wall.

  ***

  Jaxson

  My finger brushes the hair from her face as she laid limp on my bed. It’s been three torturous days and she still hasn’t woke up.

  Please baby, be okay.

  “Alpha, when her wolf decides it’s safe for her to wake up, she will. Her wolf is protecting the baby.”

  Did I do this to her?

  Was I too rough when I had her bent over my desk?

  “Jaxson. She’ll be okay.” My sister tried to make me feel better. It didn’t. “She’s been through worse.”

&nbs
p; The thought of that made me want to track him down and kill him with my bare hands. How dare he hurt her! I think it’s time to visit my dear brother.

  Duke raised his head and looked at me in disgust. “I should be the one looking at you like that, traitor.”

  He smirked at me and growled out thrashing against the chains trying to get free. “Are you going to tell me why you’re here?”

  “I can assume that you’re down here because he’s figured out where his precious mate Lana is hiding.”

  I drug the blade across his torso, but never screamed. He’d always loved pain, even when we were kids. “You think that’s going to break me, brother? I know what would break you.” I waited for him to elaborate. “I watched Lorenzo torture her every day, and you know what?”

  He broke out in laughter.

  “I got off on it every day.”

  I grabbed the knife and stabbed him in the leg.

  “Fuck!” He screamed out in pain as I twisted it digging it even deeper. “You won’t kill me. You need me.”

  It was my turn to grin. I grabbed the gun that had the silver bullets inside and pointed it straight to his forehead. “I wouldn’t be so sure about that.”

  He visibly gulped as I pulled the trigger and the bullet pierced his head and his head swung back. I watched as he fell limp taking his last breath. Cole stood in front of me with bruised hands and a bloody face.

  What did he do now?

  “Lucas fucking knew she was my mate, but still went after her!” I snapped my head up.

  “What? So, he lied to me? To us?” He nodded in confirmation that Lucas was indeed a liar, and a dirty dog.

  “Lucas escaped along with Lorenzo. I’ve got the best warriors on it right now.”

  I nodded not wanting to let my anger out. Not before I go see Lana. She still hasn’t woken up yet, so it’s making me worry for her.

  What if she never wakes up?

  No, Jaxson.

  Don’t think like that.

  I walked up to the door and turned the knob when the doctor cleared her throat.

  “She’s awake, but we have a problem. Somehow, she doesn’t remember being here. Her last memory is after Natalia found her badly beaten in the ditch.”

  What?

  “That’s impossible!”

  I ignored her and ran inside as she slept soundly. I breathed out a sigh of relief. She still had two heartbeats which meant the baby was okay. I had a big problem though. My mate doesn’t even remember me and the worst part was she didn’t remember we were mates. I was going to have to start all over with her for now.

  Was this my punishment for killing my brother?

  Her eyes fluttered open and spoke those three words I was dreading to hear. The words that were going to break me in two.

  “Who are you?”

  I broke on the inside. “I’m Alpha Jaxson of the Crimson Peak pack.”

  What am I supposed to tell her?

  “My sister found you on the edge of the territory passed out.”

  It wasn’t a complete lie, but it wasn’t exactly the truth either. I just hope she won’t be too upset when she finds out the truth.

  She narrowed her eyes at me. “I appreciate that you helped me, but I have to be going now.”

  “No! I mean not until the doctor has cleared you. I would hate for you to pass out again.” She glared at me then blew out a frustrated breath.

  “Fine.”

  CHAPTER 15

  Jaxson

  I felt my heart break into a million pieces when my mate didn’t even know who I was. My insides were burning and ripping me in half when she asked me who I was. I wanted to grab her by the shoulders and shake her until she remembered me. I wanted to kiss her lips and claim her all over again. I so badly wanted to do so many things, but I knew it wouldn’t be happening.

  She rolled back over and her breathing slowed down. She had her back to me as she softly snored. Cole has been trying to talk to me along with my sister, but I’ve shut them out. All I want right now is for my Lana to remember.

  “Jaxson.” Cole tried to talk to me again.

  I need space from everyone so I can get my wolf under control. There’s no telling what he would do if he became angry. I don’t want to hurt anyone, but if they don’t stop bothering me I will explode. It’s just a matter of time until he breaks free.

  “Jaxson, talk to us.”

  There’s that annoying fucking voice again. My beta may be my best friend, but I’ll still kick his ass if he doesn’t stop with the shit.

  “Jaxson!”

  I felt nothing but rage when a hand clamped down on my shoulder.

  “Don’t fucking touch me!” My eyes glowered and my chest heaved. I was barely holding on by a string. A thin one. I closed my eyes and felt my canines poking my bottom lip. My bones ached and my skin was on fire.

  Fuck, I can’t be shifting here.

  Fight it, Jaxson.

  I opened my eyes and tried to fight my wolf, but it only got worse with each breath. He clawed his way through my flesh to the surface. Cole backed away knowing that I had no control over it and slowly walked back to the door. I bolted out the door just in time to hear my bones cracking and shifting into my wolf. He was craving his mate and there was nothing I could do to calm him. The only thing that would calm him would be the scent and touch of our mate.

  He led me to the middle of the forest to the clearing. My paws padded on the wet grass through the rain and a bolt of lightning flashed as thunder echoed around me.

  The wind blew through my fur as I skidded to a stop. My wolf led me to Tara’s grave. I haven’t been back here since the day I buried her. I couldn’t even bring myself to come back here. It hurt too much.

  Why did he lead me here?

  I could hear him whispering to me as if he was in pain. My body started to relax and my fur disappeared as I transformed back to my human form. I was left completely naked on the cold ground.

  I rolled into a ball and shivered from the rain pouring down on me. Is there something he was trying to tell me? My mind was all kinds of fucked-up. There had to be a reason he took the time to bring me out here.

  Think, Jaxson…think.

  There has to be some sort of clue I’m missing. I studied the headstone trying to look for something only I had no idea what I would be searching for.

  “Jaxson.” A soft melodic voice calls out to me.

  “No…You’re not real.” My voice cracked as she stood behind the stone.

  “Jax, I called out to your wolf because there are some things you need to know.” Tara knelt reaching her hand out to me.

  I had to be going crazy right now if I thought I was seeing my dead wife. “You must make sure Lana remembers because if she doesn’t all hell will break loose. The war between the witches and the wolves will break out.” Her body vanished before I could say anything else.

  A war will break out if she doesn’t remember me?

  Had I just seen Tara, or was it a rage-induced hallucination?

  “I’ve been looking all over for you.” Cole breathes out catching his breath and hands me a pair of shorts. “What are you doing way out here?”

  “I don’t know,” I whispered looking at the headstone as I took the shorts from him. I stood up pulling the shorts past my hips letting them hang low on me. I wasn’t sure how I needed to answer him about seeing Tara.

  “She was here.”

  “Who?”

  “Tara… I saw her.”

  I didn’t believe in ghosts, but I know what I saw. I saw the ghost of her and she was sent here to warn me. Lana had to remember or else war would break out. I had to make sure it never happened and if I had to make Lana fall in love with me all over again I would. Maybe then her memories would come back to her.

  I would make her fall in love with me again.

  It’s just going to take some time.

  “But she’s dead.” He widened his eyes in shock.

  “I know.”<
br />
  It’s been a few days since Lana woke up and she’s been demanding to let her leave. Over my dead body. She’s not leaving and that’s final. She’s not going to leave only to be found by Lorenzo while she’s carrying my baby.

  Does she even know she’s pregnant?

  I paced back and forth in the office thinking of how I was going to tell Lana she was carrying my child. Cole approached me rubbing the back of his neck. “Lana told your sister that she was planning to sneak out tonight.”

  I froze and snapped my head up. “We’ll see about that.”

  If she thinks she’s going to succeed, she must be out of her mind. I stood in behind the tree and waited for her to attempt to escape from here. She looked around watching for anyone to spot her. She’s going to get a surprise when she winds up in my arms.

  She made her way to the forest and quietly stepped closer. She went past the tree and I wrapped my arms around her preventing her from moving. I leaned down to take in her scent and she screamed out. “Let me go!”

  It felt so good to have my mate in my arms again.

  “Quit squirming.”

  I licked her mark. I could smell the arousal radiating off her. She moaned out when I sucked her skin. She may not remember us being mates, but she can’t resist the pull.

  “Stop it! I don’t even know you.” I’ve been away from my mate for far too long. I licked up to her ear and nibbled on the shell of her ear.

  “You’re coming back with me. We need to have a little chat.”

  I had Cole guarding the outside of my office so she couldn’t try to escape. I can’t risk her getting away.

  “You have amnesia.” I peered at her through a pained expression. “You don’t remember me, but I’m your mate.”

  I paused not knowing if I should tell her about carrying my child.

  She narrowed her eyes and glared at me. I know I shouldn’t be getting turned on by her being angry with me, but I can’t help it.

  “Is that all?” She crossed her arms over her chest pushing her breasts up.

  “You’re pregnant…with my child.” She gasped as she brought her hand to her mouth.

  I knew she didn’t remember me, and that’s what hurts the most. She stood up and tried to run to the door, but I trapped her to the wall.
