Vampires, Werewolves, and Hybrids (A Novella)

[ 12 ]

We spun around and saw a pale boy with dyed red hair. He looked at us with a pissed off expression.

I smelled the air around us and the vampire's scent was back. This boy was the vampire. Well damn, he wasn't unattractive; pale skin, glowing blue eyes, short dyed red hair, and an earring in his left ear.

"I asked you a question," He said with an aggravated tone.

"Oh, um, sorry. I just smelled your scent and wanted to know who you were, that's all," I said.

"Dash Lincoln." He answered. "I'm also a member of the Vampire Council and the Vampire King."

"You're the Vampire King?" Kaden asked.

"That's what I just said, isn't it?" Dash said and Kaden gave him a glare. "And who are you two?"

"I'm Snowelle Valerie, but I prefer Snow." I said.

"And I'm Kaden Jones,"

"You're the Snowelle Valerie and the Kaden Jones? You two are the most talked about in both the vampire and werewolf worlds. You're famous," Dash said.

We were famous? How is that so? "How the hell are we famous?" I asked.

Dash shrugged. "You just are. I think it's because of where you turned down the Werewolf King's offer and that Kaden here is the only known hybrid in decades."

"Decades?" Kaden asked. "No wonder every vampire and werewolf want me dead."

"It's not just that, Kaden," Dash said.

"What else is it?"

"It's been decades since they've seen a hybrid and they're not clear on if you want to kill them all or create more hybrids. They're afraid you're trying to make a new generation of only hybrids."

"I don't want to do that. I don't want to hurt them. I wasn't always a hybrid, I was a human half vampire before one of Snow's friends who's a werewolf bit and turned me into a hybrid."
"Who was the werewolf?" Dash asked.

"Oliver Lockhart," I answered him. "I've known him for a while."

"Don't trust that asshole, Snowelle," He said, eyes full of hate.

"Why?" I asked, confused.

"He's a liar. He only helped you to find out where you were so he could tell Cole, the Werewolf King," Dash groaned. "Shit, shit, shit."

"What's wrong?" Kaden asked.

"Oliver knows where you are now and he's going to tell Cole if he hasn't already. We all need to leave Nevada. Now."

"Wait..." I said, "Before we go on the run again, tell me how you know Oliver and his...methods."

"Because..." Dash sighed. "Oliver's my brother."

What?! Now that I looked at Dash, I could see that he resembled Oliver in a way.

"Okay, I believe you," I said.

"Good. Now c'mon, we have to leave before there's a war between the vampires and werewolves again."

So this was our life now? Running from the wolves and their king? If it kept Kaden alive, I wouldn't give a shit about how we stayed existing. I would die for Kaden and I knew he would do the same for me.

Forever and always.

THE END.

FOR NOW...
