Hybrid Aria 1-4

Unknown POV

Betrayal, that’s all this will ever be viewed as, I knew the risk, knew what I was leaving behind. But I couldn’t let him die. Couldn’t lose my mate, not even for the pack. He would hate me for what I am about to do. Hate that I betrayed the pack like this. Lily is my best friend and I never would have done this to her. But I can’t live without him. Live without my mate. I knew something was seriously wrong when he didn’t return from border patrol. Then getting home to a note on the door written in my mate’s blood.

Knew instantly, he has never been more than five minutes late home, always eager to get back to me. He was going to hate me for this. But at least he will be alive. I can live with him hating me. I can’t live with him dead.

Pulling the car over at the meeting place, I get out. Hoping to even just catch a glimpse of him. When the black SUV pulled into the parking lot. I watched three rogues file out of the car. Searching the park we met at. When they deemed it safe, one of them seized my arm roughly. The decaying scent of rogues filling my nose and I hold my breath to stop from retching.

The back door opens and a man I had only ever seen once steps out. His eyes glint in sunlight and I can see the evil that lurks behind those endless pools of red. Sniffing the air, I can’t catch his scent, like he doesn’t exist, except I know he does as he is standing right in front of me. He is well dressed and his hair is longer than what it is in the photo’s in the conference room. Dark and just sitting above his shoulders, stubble on his face and a strong jaw and has a striking resemblance of Alpha Damien. I had heard the rumours that the Alpha may be the son of Kade; I didn’t want to believe he was any relation to this monster. Seeing him standing here, I could see the similarities.

“I see you got my message little one” He says, stepping closer and gripping my face. His fingers digging into my cheeks as his eyes search my face, I can see his fangs protruding under his top lip.

“Where is my mate?” I try to ask around the tight grip he has on my face.

“You don’t get to ask the questions, you will just have to take my word he is alive. But I am sure you already know that through the bond you share” He says letting my face go.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“The question I have for you is, what are you willing to do to get him back?”

I felt bile rise in my throat, my stomach turning at what I was about to say. We have it instilled in us from a young age that your pack is everything, live by the hierarchy to protect and serve. This was going against everything I was taught, everything I believed.

“Anything” I gasp, the words feeling like poison on my tongue leaving a foul taste in my mouth.

“Good, because I have a task for you. My son killed his mother, killed my mate, and now I want you to return the favour. We have been watching. I have eyes everywhere, I know they are watching the borders closely, I know they are planning something. The blood Moon Pack has arrived. Little did they know this was the plan all along”

“You want me to kill Lily?” I ask.

“Yes, that is exactly what I want you to do. And for it to work you must not let her know, not let her realise she has died”

“I don’t understand. How would she know? She will be dead”

“You will understand, just make it quick and clean. She trusts you, you can get close to her” Kade tells me and I nod. Lily trusts me and I would trust my life in her hands, which just makes knowing what I am about to do all that more awful.

“Why are you doing this?” I dare to ask and am surprised when he answers.

“Twelve years ago I created the ultimate predator, I found a way to replicate immortality, and it lies within her blood. I want to watch Aria be destroyed by the one person she raised, I want to show her that the Hybrid queen can fall, and show her Lily’s wolf was never broken; she just needed to be awoken. Needed to meet her full potential. Twelve years, I waited. Twelve years I was tortured by her father and twelve years without my mate and my son. Now I am going to get my revenge by taking the one thing he tried to keep hidden. Abel should have killed me when he had the chance, because now he is going to know what it feels like to lose his daughter. He took her from me, killed my daughter, took everything from me and now I am going to take everything he holds dear from him. I will not lose another child because of his family”

“But why, Lily? She had nothing to with any of this, she was a child” I ask, enraged that everything always comes back to Abel, comes back to a war we were never part of. Now we were just the collateral damage.

“If you want your mate back you will do as I ask, and once all this is over I will give you your mate and you will be free to leave”

“And If I fail?” He chuckles darkly.

“I will post him to you in pieces” My stomach drops somewhere cold and dark and I feel my heart caught in my throat.

“Kill Lily, then get out of there. Aria won’t be a match for her”

“What do you mean?” I ask, Aria is the most powerful Lycan hybrid in the world, a direct descendant of the moon goddess herself.

“Because Lily is not only a pure hybrid, she has a wolf, the one thing Aria doesn’t have. But her blood is just as pure, and Aria will never see it coming. Even if she does, Aria won’t be able to kill her little sister, the sister she raised that is more like a daughter to her. The only thing they ever got right about Lily. Is that she is more unhinged than me, that Layla is truly the biggest monster anyone has ever seen and Lily will never be able to stop her. I made sure that bond was severed the day I forced her shift, Lily has been right all these years not to let her out. Layla will be her ultimate downfall, ” He says before opening the rear door and climbing in. He opens the window and the rogues hop back in the car.

“You have three days, three days and I will mail you a piece of your mate, I will do that every day until the task is done. So if I were you I would work quickly, before there is nothing left of him” He says before I watch the tinted window slide back up. I watch as he pulls out of the park and leaves before collapsing. The air leaving my lungs suddenly and I can’t breathe. I have to kill her, kill my best friend. I have to betray both Packs, betray what I believe.

Moon Goddess, please forgive me.
