The Alpha's Hybrid Mate
Page 12
My father was a good friend to Jaxson’s father and then he just threw him away like yesterday's trash. He was supposed to be his beta, not James.
“You may go now.” He curtly nodded and quickly left.
I had to hire another maid since I killed my last one. This one is just as scared of me as the last one was. Good. She has every reason to be frightened of me. I preferred it that way. After all, I had a reputation to keep.
Loading up the camera feeds, I grinned knowing that I would soon be able to take step two. Everything from here on out would be a piece of cake. The hardest part was getting all the cameras into each room without anyone noticing. I was going to be able to watch their every step and know exactly when I could slip in and take her.
Before the next full moon, I would have drained her powers and made her like me. A vampire. She would become my slave and tend to my every need. She was going to be my little slut. Just like I trained her to be, and Jaxson’s child would be raised as if it were mine. He would grow up to think he was the enemy and hate him.
It would be the perfect revenge on him and his father. A father who desperately wanted his son’s love, but never got it. It would be his undoing. It would break Jaxson’s father knowing there wasn’t a damn thing he could do to make it right. The alpha would be broken from losing his mate leaving him vulnerable for anyone to attack.
Bringing the glass to my lips, I smiled knowing that I would be the one who attacked Jaxson and take complete control over his entire pack. I would be the one he bowed to when he begged for his life.
As long as this guy I got working for me stayed loyal, I would succeed. If he proved to be loyal, I might spare him his life. Who knows, I might even make him my new beta.
CHAPTER 23
Lana
I yawned as I woke up from my nap and smiled to myself. Sighing out, I looked at Gabriel still sleeping soundly. His dark curls clung to his forehead as his chest slowly rose and fell. An eerie feeling washed over me all of a sudden. It was a feeling you get when it feels like you’re being watched. Shaking my head, I pushed those thoughts away. It must be my witchy powers acting up again.
Yep.
That’s the reason.
I stepped into the bathroom and glanced in the mirror from the side. My stomach was starting to swell revealing a small bump. I felt a pair of arms wrap around me from behind and place a kiss on my neck. Jaxson pressed his chest to my back. “Have a good sleep?”
“Yes, but I missed feeling you pressed up against my ass.” I purred as my pregnancy hormones kicked in. In the past few weeks, I’ve been extremely horny. Most women craved food, but not me. I mean sure I’ve craved certain foods, but nothing feeds my hunger as much as his cock does.
I need it.
My wolf craves it.
“As much as I would love nothing more than fuck you, I can’t right now. My father’s witch is going to be here within the hour, and I have to discuss some things with him.” He ran his tongue over his mark and kissed it. My back arched when tingling ran through my body making me want him to take me right here on the sink.
He groaned when I pushed my ass back teasing his wolf. Jaxson was having a hard time breathing and keeping his wolf under control. His eyes flashed red making him close his eyes searching for a calming sensation. When he finally opened them back up, he was back to his normal self.
He laced his fingers with mine as we stepped out of the bathroom and led me to the bed. He gently pushed me down, and licked his lips when I looked up to him in lust. Unlacing our fingers, he leaned down with our faces inches apart. “You are such a little tease.”
My breath hitched in my throat when he kissed me, and sucked on my bottom lip. His arms were propped on each side of my head as his lips landed back on me. He was making my wolf crazy with excitement. He reached over and traced my cheek as he pulled away. “Take care of our little boys.”
“Don’t you mean little girl and boy.” I smiled coyly, rubbing my belly.
He shook his head, chuckling to me. “It’s going to be a boy.”
Before I could get another word in, he had already left the room. I sighed knowing it would be better if it were a boy. If we had a daughter, he would definitely keep the unmated wolves away when she got older. I would cross that bridge if I ever had to. A voice makes me turn with wide eyes. “Da Da.”
I scooped him up in my arms with tears streaming down my face. “Let’s go tell daddy.”
I ran downstairs and went straight to his office only to find it empty. I looked around and nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary. I wanted to tell him the good news. Gabriel bounced squealing in my arms. “Da Da.”
“Oh my god, he’s talking!” Gisselle gushed, taking him from my arms.
Gisselle had been taken and has been recovering. She was healed on the outside, but I knew that on the inside she was still hurting. I knew what that felt like to be damaged and not know how to cope. Lorenzo tried to bend me into submission, but I never folded. My wolf wouldn’t let me and for that, I’m grateful for.
“Jaxson will be back. He had some things to do with his father.”
I followed her down the hallway towards the kitchen when all of a sudden I could hear voices whispering. It was happening to me again. The voices were chanting louder as I braced myself against the wall. Jaxson’s mother was at my side in an instant worried for me. “What’s happening?
Shaking my head, I stopped her from coming any closer. “Please, I don’t want to hurt anyone.”
I could feel the energy surging through my body as my eyes glowered. It’s never been this strong before and I can’t understand why. It has to be someone doing this to me. I closed my eyes and tried to focus on something to calm me down. I opened my eyes back up to find I wasn’t in the house anymore. I was in a forest somewhere I’d never been.
A woman around my age slightly resembling me stood before me smiling. “Lana, I don’t have much time.”
“Who are you?” I was confused.
“It’s me, Tara. Your sister. I need you to take my magic so Lorenzo can’t find it.” She took my hand and I could feel the energy from her enter my body. My body shook and then all I saw was darkness.
When I woke back up, I was in a bed and a worried Jaxson was hovering over me.
“Are you hurt?” I shook my head, and then I remembered my vision.
“Jaxson. I saw her.”
“Saw who?”
“Tara.”
***
Jaxson
Her words rang over in my head as Tara’s name slipped from her lips.
“Tara is dead.”
“I know, but I know what I saw.” She argued.
Laying down next to her, I pulled her body close to me. I needed to feel her on me to keep my wolf calm. She looked up at me and I knew then her hormones were taking over her body. She ran her fingers through my hair and whispered. “Where were you?”
“Father and I went to make sure his witch made it here safely. Right now I don’t want to talk about that.”
She unbuttoned my pants and slid the zipper down painfully slowly. I could feel the vibrations through my pants making me grow hard. Taking my cock in her hands, she pumped me hard. “Tell me what you want.”
“I want you to ride me.” I panted leaning on the headboard. I scanned her body and smirked as I slid down my pants to my thighs. Pumping myself, I wiggled it at her. “Come sit on me, baby.”
She straddled me, and I slid it inside her. She rolled her hips; moaning in my ear as I thrust deeper inside her. She gripped the headboard giving me the chance to take a nipple in my mouth. I swirled my tongue around it as she bounced up and down on me. “Jaxson!”
Gripping her hips, I guided her up and down. I released her nipple and growled as she continued to ride me nice and hard. “You feel so good.”
We were both panting and moaning as the bed creaked with each thrust. I’m sure whoever was in the house probably hated us right now. We weren’t bei
ng quiet, and I didn’t want to. I wanted every male in the pack to know who she belonged to. I could feel her body tense up and squeeze my cock, making me thrust even harder as her hips worked me over. “Here it comes, baby.”
“Fuck me harder!” She ordered me, as she came around me just as I felt the jets of hot cum shoot deep inside of her. She collapsed on my chest still breathing hard.
“I’m loving these hormones.” I pecked her lips as she looked up.
A knock at the door broke us from our daze. I could hear my father’s voice through the door. “If you’re done, then meet me in the office. The witch needs to see Lana.”
When we entered my office, a slim woman with shoulder-length hair stood there next to my father. “My name is Lucinda, and you must be Lana.”
Lana nodded, and shook her hand. “Now, let’s get a handle on these powers of yours.”
Now that the witch has arrived to help Lana; I can finally focus on hunting down Lorenzo and dragging him back here to torture him. His death wasn’t going to be a quick one; because of what he did to that woman he drained, and left lying dead at the border. I kissed Lana and whispered. “I’ll be back.”
Stepping out of the room, my father followed me to my bedroom. I turned to him, turning up the music to drown out our voices. “We have a traitor among us.”
He cocked his head to the side. “What?”
“I said we have a traitor, and I know exactly who it is.” I knew the bastard had been conspiring against me ever since the incident and was planning his revenge.
“Who is it?” He clenched his jaw.
“I think you know the answer to that. It makes sense as to how they got mother so easily, and knew exactly who James’ daughter was.”
CHAPTER 24
Lana
Lucinda smiled as we took a seat on the sofa. “I think I know what's happening to your powers. Your child is a part wolf and part witch. He or she is the one making your powers go haywire.”
“So, how do I control them?” I asked as she held out a necklace. I took it from her and looked at the amber gem in the middle of the gold plate.
“This is spelled to keep the little one from overwhelming your powers and spiraling out of control. After you have your baby, I can start training you.”
Placing it around my neck, I felt a surge of energy flow through my body. I stood up and stumbled forward as the necklace worked its magic. I started to fall forward and began to lean forward. Jaxson ran to me and caught me before I could hit the floor. “Easy, love.”
My body always melted when I was in his arms. That was the mate bond becoming stronger. “Jax, where were you?”
He clenched his jaw and rubbed my swollen belly. “Just business.”
I knew it wasn't just business from the way his jaw tightened. I could feel the anger radiating from him. “What is it, Jax?”
“Not here.” He whispered, brushing his lips against me.
Cole walked in, and whispered in Jaxson's ear. I couldn't hear what he said, but whatever it was must be bad. Jaxson's eyes glowered red and his canines began to protrude. I cupped his face and whispered. “Calm down, Jaxson.”
He closed his eyes and started to shake. His wolf was in complete control now. I should be afraid of him, but for some reason, I knew he wouldn't hurt me. Cole tried to pull me away only to get shoved to the wall gasping for air. “Don't fucking touch her!”
“Jaxson, don't hurt him. He wasn't trying to harm me.”
Lucinda stepped up beside me and nudged me by the elbow. “Let's get you something to eat while they work it out.”
I reluctantly followed her out leaving the two men currently at each other's throat. “Jaxson will be fine.”
“It's not Jaxson I'm worried about.” I didn't want him to kill Cole.

Jaxson
“Did you have to be so rough?” Cole hissed through clenched teeth.
“Yes, you touched my mate,” I told him as he adjusted his shirt.
“Well, are you going to tell me why we just made a scene, so you could get me alone to talk?”
“I know who the traitor is. Have you noticed that Lucas has been sneaking off lately?”
“Do you think he killed the girl?”
“No, but I think he knows who did. He's been feeding Lorenzo information.”
“Fuck, please tell me it's not true. How could he do that to us; after everything we've done for him?”
I smirked to myself knowing that I've got him chained up in the basement. “He's not going anywhere. My father caught him about to go after Lucinda. He was going to knock her out and kill her. He heard his thoughts.”
“Fucking bastard.” Now it was his turn to be angry at the situation.
“I was going to torture him but decided to let you have the honors.”
I knew that he wanted to payback Lucas for trying to touch my sister. They were mates, and if another werewolf touches someone else's woman, there was hell to pay. Lucas is dumber than I originally thought. Not only did he touch another man's mate, but he also touched his Alpha's sister. Either way, he was going to suffer dearly. Nobody touches Natalia and lives to tell about it, the only one allowed to touch her would be Cole.
Only because they were destined to be together.
I led Cole down the stairs, and pulled a chair up to him. "I'm not here to torture you this time. That's what he's here for."
Cole cracks his neck rolling his head side to side. “I've been waiting on this ever since you touched what belongs to me.”
Lucas threw his head back and laughed in his face. “You think killing me is going to stop Lorenzo from getting to Lana?”
I leaned forward curling my lips into a smirk. “Who said anything about killing you? Well, not yet anyway.”
I watched and grinned when Cole began his assault on his body. Cole was a sadistic mother fucker when he got angry. I guess that's why we're best friends. Two of a kind. Even though all the blows Cole was giving him, the cocky bastard still laughed in his face. “Lorenzo enjoyed draining James' daughter of her blood. She was such a champ taking his cock down her throat.”
“Cole, step aside,” His daughter was never a whore like the other sluts in my pack.
I scooted closer and leaned forward. “I'm going to make sure you suffer an agonizing death. Just like she did.”
I grabbed a hold of his head and smashed it to the cement wall. His smile slowly faded as his eyes closed. “Cole, go get cleaned up and go rest up. We're going to need all the strength to take Lorenzo and his minions down.”
I pulled my shirt over my head and unbuttoned my jeans, dragging the zipper down. I kicked off my shoes and slid off my pants. Lana laid on my bed sleeping with a hand over her belly. The sight made my cock spring to life.
I pressed my face to her stomach and whispered. “I'm going to protect you, son, you and your mother.”
She popped an eye open and threaded her fingers through my hair. “Who said it was going to be a boy? It might be a girl.”
“Lana,” I whispered breathlessly. “I want you so fucking bad. You have no idea what you do to my cock. It craves your pussy, and right now it has a hunger for it.”
I traced her mark sending chills down her back. Good, now I know it's not just me that feels it. She crashed her mouth down on mine and dominated my tongue. Fuck me, is she trying to kill me? If this is what dying felt like, I would gladly die over and over.
“Are you going to stare all day, or are you going to fuck me, Alpha?” She teased my wolf trying to get a rise out of him.
“Oh sweetheart, I'm going to fuck you like you never been fucked before. When I'm done with you, everyone in this territory will know who you belong to.”
CHAPTER 25
Jaxson
Everything seemed to happen in a blur over the last few weeks. Lorenzo was nowhere to be found and I had Lucas downstairs torturing each day in hopes for a location. He knew where Lorenzo was, he just wasn’t saying where. I
t was Lucas…he was the traitor in my pack. He caused my mate pain, and was responsible for the kidnapping of my mother. I was preparing my pack to take down the man responsible for hurting my mate. It made my wolf angry to know he put his hands on her. Not only was Lorenzo going to have to face me, but he was also going to have to face my father too.
“Jaxson,” Lana placed her hand on my chest. “I think you need to calm down.”
I squeezed my eyes shut and took a breath to calm myself. “I can’t help it…he hurt you, and my mother.”
“Hey look at me, I’m still here safe and sound.” She cupped my face to force me to look down at her.
“I’m going to protect you, Gabriel, and the little one growing inside you. I don’t know what I’d do if I ever lost you.”
“You’re not going to lose anyone…especially not me.” She assured me.
The war was just starting, and I had a feeling there would be casualties…hopefully, I wasn’t one of them.
“Jaxson, he’s ready to talk,” Cole said from the other side of the door.
“Go, I’ll be fine.” She said kissing my lips.
“Try and get some rest, my little mate.”
I stepped out leaving the room and faced Cole. He frowned and looked away from me, making me narrow my eyes. Whatever he found out wasn’t good.
“Tell me,” I growled.
“It’s bad, oh god, I don’t even know where to begin. Lorenzo and the witches are coming together. The war between the witches and werewolves…it’s already happening. Jaxson, I think it’s time to call him.”
“I know.” I sighed.
I didn’t want to call him, but now I have no choice. I was going to have to call the man who all werewolves hated. He was the king to all vampires…brutal and ruthless. I hated to have to call him here, but if it kept my family safe…I would do it. Because if they were looking to take out the werewolves, the vampires would be next.
“Call him, arrange a meeting. Tell him it’s important I speak to him.”
“What are we going to do with Lucas?” He asked.
