Hybrid Aria 1-4

I skip another 3 hours when I see people rushing into her room before five men hold her down, blood coating the floor and her round stomach moving violently.

She was screaming and crying and I watched horrified as they cut the baby from her with no sedatives, no pain relief just cut her stomach open and reached in pulling the baby free, my mate seeing the baby seems confused like she didn’t understand how the baby got in her before suddenly holding her arms out wanting the child. They refused her and sedated her.

My mate passes out and they walk out taking the baby. She slowly healed and eventually she woke up looking around the room confused, she touched her belly before looking in the mirror and I saw her wolf come forward punching and headbutting the glass. Screaming for her pup.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

I skip hours of her hitting and kicking the glass, her entire body bloody from hitting the glass when eventually the door opens and Estella walks in with the baby bundled up. My mate freezes staring before sniffing the air. Estella gives her the baby and my mate sits down with the baby on the bed. Estella watches the baby in my. mates arm that seems to settle before lifting her shirt and putting my mate’s boob in the baby’s mouth.

My mates looks up with tears running down her cheeks before looking at the baby in her arms while she feeds it.

Once she finished feeding her she then curled up with the baby in her arms falling asleep. Estella leaves the room.

“Ryker?” My father says walking into the lab made me jump, I didn’t even hear him come in too absorbed in what I was watching. I look up staring at him. My back cracked loudly from the movement and I felt stiff and my body ached all over. Brax left a while ago, unable to hear our mates screams, unable to watch the things she suffered through.

“Son it’s time to go home, you have been here for more than 24 hours staring at that screen” my father says. It’s been 24 hours?

“Son?” He says again touching my shoulder.

“You should go home to your mate, Tyson keeps sedating her but she has been asking when you will return” . Just at the mention of her I remember my mate despite watching her on a screen for hours, the fact that she was at home alive despite everything she endured broke me.

Something snapping and breaking painfully within me. Everything I did to her, hitting me like a tonne of bricks and suddenly I couldn’t breathe, I broke down. I don’t even remember the last time I cried but I know I was young. I didn’t even cry when I killed Danika, but knowing what she endured by my hands and by them suddenly crushed me.

I broke down, coming apart at the seams and I grabbed him, hugging him. I just wanted him to take it away. Take away the pain like he did when I was a boy, making everything alright because I couldn’t fix this, I couldn’t save her from them, couldn’t save her from me.

“I know son, I know” he says, hugging me tight while I drenched him with my pathetic crying. I must have looked so weak but I didn’t care, I just couldn’t stop.

I don’t know how long I was sobbing like a baby, but eventually the tears stopped and I pulled away suddenly embarrassed. My father grabs my face, sensing my embarrassment. Jacob in the cells behind me averted his gaze, but I knew he had seen what was on the screen, knew he felt bad for me forcing him to chain her up in the cells back home.

“Everyone breaks, but now you need to go home and be there for your mate”

“But how? How do I tell her Lucy is dead, that her child is dead and how do I face her after what I have done”

“Trust in the mate bond, Tyson said she is becoming restless, she is scared, Ryker. She has no wolf and no connection to anything and right now her only connection is sitting here in front of the screen when you should be at home with her” he says.

“I haven’t finished them” I tell him.

“Take them and watch them another time if you need to, but it’s time to go home” he tells me. I nod getting up. I jam everything in the box.

“What about him?” My father asks glaring at the vile man in the cell. I look at Jacob.

“Keep him alive” he nods.

“You’re not going to kill him?” My father asks, shocked.

“No but I know Amanda will” I tell him and he nods. My stomach growls hungrily.

“Damien is upstairs waiting for you, make sure you get something to eat and I will go get Jacob and Mathias something, Drake should be back soon. He can take over here till you figure out what you want to do” my father tells me. I nod, tucking the box under my arm and walking toward the stairs. My eyes felt like sandpaper as I climbed the stairs.

Walking outside I see Damian leaning on his mustang, a smoke between his fingers. He passes me the packet and I take one out lighting it. “You okay?” He asks, taking the box from me and placing it on the back seat. I say nothing and just hop in his car.

We drove in silence for a bit before stopping at McDonalds only to then jump back on the road. I eventually fell asleep and woke to Damien shaking my shoulder.
