Mated To An Hybrid

“Oh my gosh, Brian this house is beautiful!”, Serah gushed.

They had landed in Paris an hour ago and the thirty minute drive from the airport to their new home was one of the most beautiful rides Serah had ever experienced.

“I know, I bought it last month specifically for our use”, Brian smiled.

“Wait, you’ve planned this all along?”, Serah asked.

“Yes, it’s a surprise and now, the building is ours”, Brian grinned.

He led her inside, switching on the bright neon lights that bathed the whole living room in a dark blue glow.

“Oh Brian, this is amazing”, Serah said.

She wrapped her hands around him, giving him a deep kiss. She poured her gratitude and emotions into that kiss, conveying how greatful she was. She could hardly believe how the Moon goddess had chosen her to be his mate when she knew how most girls struggled to get his attention.

“Now, where do you want to try out first?”, Brian grinned.

“As much as I’d love to continue that with you, I have to call my parents. They haven’t called in like a week now and I’m starting to get worried”, Serah sighed.

She made her way towards a large couch. She slumped on it, pulling her shoes which were feeling very uncomfortable.

Brian walked towards her, crouching beside her to massage her feets which had gotten swollen a bit.

“When last did you hear from them?”, he asked.

Serah did a mental calculation in her head and discovered that it was a really long time. She wondered what was happening and she said a silent prayer for their protection.

“About a week ago. They usually call once every three days but now, this is taking too long”, she said.

“Don’t worry my love, I’ll send one of my boys to check up on them. Maybe they’re cut off from reception that’s why they haven’t called”, Brian said.

He hated to see her worried, it broke his heart whenever her face showed any signs of fear or anxiety. For the rest of his life, he wanted to keep her safe without any fear whatsoever.

“Thank you, that’s a relief”, Serah smiled.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“You’re welcome mate. Now, can we continue from where we stopped”, Brian grinned.

“Well yes, but we need to eat first”, Serah laughed.

Quick as a lightening, she got off the chair, running towards the kitchen. Brian didn’t know how she knew where it was bit he was glad because right at that moment, his stomach rumbled, announcing that it was in need of food.

Brian shed his inner jacket, loosening his tie. He had every intention of cooking with his mate, it would be a proper bonding time for them and he didn’t want to waste it on a tight shirt.

When he got to the kitchen, he was surprised to see that she had already shed her old clothes for a much shorter gown. Her legs were on full display as he walked towards her.

“Are you trying to seduce me mate?”, he growled.

“Call it seduction or what not, all I know is that I’m much more comfortable in these”, Serah smiled.

She moved towards him, brushing a hand over his shoulders not so innocently. Brian gripped her hands, preparing to pull her closer but she was faster as she moved quickly before he could act.

“Seducing and teasing me, Serah you know that doesn’t sit well with me”, Brian said.

“I know”, Serah simply said.

“Wait, how did you even change to these clothes, I never saw you go upstairs?”, Brian said.

“That’s the power of magic, I really don’t need to break a sweat if I need to get changed”, Serah said, proudly.

“That’s a nice trait you have there, now I’m jealous”, Brian huffed.

“Don’t be”, Serah laughed.

“What are we having for dinner?”.

Brian walked towards the huge refrigerator that stood at a corner of the huge kitchen, he pulled out a can of beer, downing the contents at a go.

“Spaghetti and meatballs, I know you love it that’s why I’m making it”, Serah smiled.

“You know just what I want. My mother used to make it a lot when she was alive”, Brian said.

Serah could tell that he was sad especially as he spoke about his mother, he greatly missed her and she wished she had the power to bring her back.

“You never really talk about her. I’m sorry for what happened to her”, Serah said.

She moved closer to him, gripping his large hands in a gentle squeeze. She could see the rage of emotions going through his eyes.

Brian leaned his head on her shoulder, taking comfort from her. Anytime he remembered his mother and especially how she died, there was a hollow feeling in his chest. No wolf or even human deserved to die the way she did.

“She was killed by some rogue wolves. She was actually dragged to death”, Brian said.

He took a swig from the can of beer. Serah gripped the can, setting it down gently. She knew that if he continued like this, he would end up in a stupor.

“Oh my gosh, that’s horrible”, Serah gasped.

She knew she died but didn’t know this was how she died. It was horrible what they did to her, a Luna shouldn’t be subjected to something like this.

“Did you ever get the person who did this?”, she asked quietly.

“No… I didn’t. They absconded before I could get there. My father would have gotten them but he was too weak to fight. He was poisoned with a dart that rendered him powerless to stop them”, Brian said.

“Brian, look at me”, Serah said.

He looked up, Serah’s heart broke when she discovered that there were unshed tears in his eyes, this was hard for him to talk about and she was glad he opened up to her something she knew was difficult to do.

“I promise, we’ll find who did that to your mother. It might take sometime but I promise you, we will and when we do, we’ll make them pay”, Serah vowed.

“Thank you”, Brian rasped.

“You don’t need to thank me, I’m your mate, I’m bound to you. Whatever happens to you happens to me. Your pain is my pain Brian and so is your happiness”, Serah said.

Right at that moment, Brian knew that whoever crossed his mate would be signing their death warrant. He would also do everything with in his power to protect the woman he loved.

“Serah, this means a whole lot. Thank you”, Brian said.

“We’ll do this together. Cheers to us kicking butts”, she laughed.

“Cheers”, Brian smiled.
