Can't believe the Moon goddess my own great great great grandmother would curse her own grandson to a life of misery. Blessings are what they say mates are, mine are a curse. Before I knew how badly mates could destroy you, tear apart your soul, I craved mine. Craved finding my other half, now I know better. Mate’s are a distraction one I couldn’t afford, yet here I am still searching for my little white wolf knowing I will be damned when I finally catch her, that I will once again have to tear off another piece of my soul when I am forced to kill this one too.

Mate’s are no blessing and the Moon Goddess, well I have given up on her, my mother is a pure hybrid a direct descendant of the Moon goddess herself,making her the hybrid Queen until she handed her title to me stepping down, now I am the cursed Alpha king. My father was a werewolf so the only good thing I got out of my mother being a hybrid was being the ultimate predator, luckily I was also blessed with a wolf. My twin sisters were like my mother, just hybrid's, no wolf's no shifting, my younger brothers were like me though, tends to run in the female side the hybrid genes. I only craved blood in wolf form, my sisters craved it all the time.

My family were the only hybrids except for the mutations made by Kade a crazy scientist who was hellbent on revenge for a feud that had nothing to with us only my grandfather but that didn’t stop for trying to destroy us, he used my grandfathers blood to become immortal we thought after finally killing the bastard everything was going to be fine. Well until I found my first mate, she was a hunter and what a disaster that was. I was blinded by the mate bond and she was using me to get to my pack, my family so knowing that it ended in her death.
I won't stand for betrayal and having to kill her destroyed me. Yet now my grandmother has decided to fiddle with the Fates again and give me another dud for a mate. A second chance mate and this one has been eluding me for months now.

Alpha King's Mate （Book 4 Hybrid Aria）

She still didn't move a muscle, her eyes trained on the cell she was kept prisoner in.

"What's wrong?" Tyson mind links me, stuck behind me on the steps with Ace.

"Just give her a sec" I mindlink back. She was frozen completely rooted to the spot unmoving.

"I am right behind you, no one will touch you with me here, you won't be locked back up" I tell her, leaning down and running my nose down her cheek. Heart rate slows but she still doesn't let go of my arm around her chest where I grabbed her.

My father comes out of one of the cells at the back and she finally takes a breath of air regaining herself and stepping forward and letting me off the stairs and Tyson and Ace walk down as well.

"Ryker?" My father asks, staring in disbelief, that I would bring her back here.

"You're safe with us" I tell her, kissing her ear and she lets go of my arm. Tyson wanders off and I see Reika walk off out of the corner of my eye.
