Hybrid Aria 1-4

Waking up my head was pounding, like someone stepped on it.

“Wakey wakey!” Ryker says his voice drilling into my skull.

“Not so loud” I tell him. Why does my head hurt? I hear him laugh.

“Consequences of drinking” he says.

Ryker pulls on my arms trying to get me up.

“No let me sleep” I tell him, wanting to hide under the blanket till this headache leaves.

“Feed on me and it will go away” he says, tugging on my arms again.

“Come on up you haven’t fed in awhile so get up” he says and I groan though the mention of blood had my gums tingling. I sit up feeling the sharp points digging into my bottom lip. I rub my eyes and he sits on the bed tapping his lap. I sluggishly move before standing only to be yanked onto his lap facing him.

He kisses me and I pull away from him, my mouth feeling ridiculously dry and I could still taste orange juice on my tongue.

I rest my head on his shoulder, a little reluctant to feed on him. It had been days and my hunger was a little insatiable now that he mentioned it.

“Reika you need blood, just do it already” he says, his tone sounding a little angry. When I don’t move he drags his nail across his neck where his mark is and I shiver at the sound of his skin tearing.

“Reika!” He says and before running his thumb down his neck before pressing it to my lips, his thumb forcing its way into my mouth. He brushes his thumb over my tongue, his blood touching my tongue so addictively sweet making mouth water and a growl to escape my lips. I sink my fangs into him and he jumps before rubbing my back.

“Good girl” he says and I feel my bloodlust take over, hunger like never before making me wonder when the last time I fed actually was. Amanda came forward worriedly.

“Reika stop” she says but I couldn’t, my vision turning red.

“Reika!” Amanda screams in my head in panic. I feel her force control and I don’t resist letting her take over knowing I couldn’t control it. My fangs leave his neck and he grabs my face. His eyes slightly glazed over and I felt Amanda withdraw, giving me back control.

“Ryker?” I ask in panic when I see him sway slightly.

“I’m fine, just give me a sec” he says leaning against me.

I run my fingers through his hair.

“Geez what got into you, he was telling you to stop!” Amanda snaps at me yet I didn’t hear him, couldn’t over my own desire to feed.

Ryker seems to regather himself.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“I’m fine Amanda, lay off her” Ryker says making me look at him.

“You heard her?” He nods before pecking my lips softly.

“Yes Brax can hear her too now since last night” he says.

“Yeah, I finally figured out how to drop the barrier blocking us,” Amanda says.

“Probably helped that you were drunk” she says. I smile knowing they could hear us and us them now.

“I’m sorry” I tell him.

“Not your fault, I forget you need blood too” he says, kissing me, and sucking my bottom lip in his mouth. I kiss him back and he groans gripping my hips.

When we hear the door downstairs burst open before hearing kids rush into the house.

“Everyone alive,” I hear Aria Ryker’s mother sing out from downstairs. Ryker looks to the bedroom before looking at me.

“Kids are here, how’s your headache?”

“Gone now” I tell him hopping off his lap. I race to the bathroom and have the quickest shower brushing my teeth before getting changed. When I came back to the room, Ryker was gone and the bedroom door was left open. I walk downstairs and can hear talking and laughing and a lot of mumbles.

Arial was face done on the table and looked like shit, Lana was sipping on a blood bag while making breakfast with Aria and Ryker I couldn’t see.

“He is with the kids out back on the swings” Aria says nodding toward the glass sliding door.

Hearing a noise behind me, I see Tyson walk out, sniffing the air before gagging and rushing out the back and hanging his head over the railing and puking.

“That’s what you get you little shit for stealing the other bottle” Arial calls after him lifting her head from the table.

“You look fine” she says before sniffing the air, “you fed on Ryker” she says wiggling her eyebrows at me.

“Leave her alone” Aria scolds her daughter.

“What I was just saying,” Arial says.

“Kids are out back if you want to see them” Lana says and I nod.

“Did they find the other facility yet?” I ask Aria.

“No but they know we are looking for it, Drake sent scouts out last night but we are thinking they might be underground. We have checked everywhere else that’s big enough to hold that many kids and go unnoticed but can’t even pick up a scent anywhere” she says.

“We will find them Reika, these things just take time” Lana adds. I nod, not liking that I have to wait, but what other choice did we have?

Walking out the back, I see Ryker pushing the two girls on the swing. So I am assuming one must be Arial’s daughter Macey.

Titus Lana’s son was on the slippery dip calling out for Ryker to watch him go down the slide.

“Wait buddy” I hear Ryker call out to him but he doesn’t listen instead jumping and plonking on his butt. Ryker managed to grab him before he slid straight off the end alarmingly fast.

“The little one only” Ryker tells him, chucking the boy over his shoulder and going back to the swings. Titus climbs on his shoulder and holds his hair as he walks back to the girls.

“He will be a good father one day” Aria says walking out behind me. I nod at her words and she hands me a cup.

I sniff it to find it is coffee. Tyson was laying on the ground on his back looking very green next to the stairs leading down to the grass.
