Storms POV

_________________

I left the couch and went to the bathroom. I felt like screaming 'What do you want from me?'. Why had the sea gods gone against me? Why do I have to hold this secret? Why couldn't it be anyone else? All off these questions overwhelmed me. I felt as if I was swimming in questions, and sinking from the lack of answers.

A faint knock stopped my quiet sobbing. I opened the door and saw my mate. It took all of my strength not to run into his welcoming arms. He stared at me finally breaking the silence, "Come here" he opened his arms. I shook my head, "Storm, you can't hide yourself from me forever.

My mouth felt like I had eaten cotton. A small blush found its way to my cheeks. I looked down trying to avoid eye contact. A chuckle filled in the silence of the small condo. "What do you want from me?" I asked him, his chuckle faded like the amused look in his eyes. "I don't want anything. I just want to know what it takes to have your heart" his response surprised me.

"For starters I have to actually know you" I snapped, I can't let him have me in the palm of his hand I need to be at a distance from him. If he has me at the palm of his hand I would tell him anything, even the one thing I swore to the sea gods to keep. My destiny. I am meant to make a hybrid child, half mermaid half werewolf. The last hybrid was made five century's ago, it nearly wiped out supernatural kind. It was a hybrid between a vampire and werewolf, the most destructive of the night creatures. Ever since everyone despised hybrids, killing them off to be sure all supernatural creatures never were harmed by them again.

I breathed in a huge breath of Nick's scent. I listened to the lapping of the waves. The rhythm almost hypnotizing to my kind, I had a sudden urge to eat salt. I slipped past Nick who was engulfed in his own thoughts. I walked to the kitchen which was right next to the small living room and looked for salt. I heard a small shuffle of feet and a voice filled the kitchen "What are you looking for?". "Salt" I snapped and kept looking around. Nick walked to a cabinet and slowly opened it handing me the salt. "Thanks" I mumble while putting about half of the salt shaker into my hand and eating it.

"What are you?" Nick asked me, it sounded rood but i didn't take offence. If a random girl walked into my kitchen eating half of my salt I would ask that too. I sighed, " How about I show you". I wanted to show him because I needed an excuse for getting out of this place. Nick just nodded and followed me out the door, I just noticed I had my bikini on when Nick growled. "You are not going out like that". I came to a sudden stop, who was he to boss me around? "Listen. You have no right to control me I do what I want I come and go as I please. If I want to wear a bikini in public I will got that? Good!" I snarled at him. I never took others telling me what to do or teaching me whats right and whats wrong very well. I just hate the idea of not being in charge, of not being in control. I guess I would fit a luna perfectly. I shook those thoughts off, if you are going to keep your race safe you are not going to be a luna, that requires a child. And my child will require destruction.

I started to walk out of the door when I was pulled back meeting Nick's black as night eyes,that looked full of anger and in those pools of black was also sadness. I wanted to fix it but I knew i had to stay as far away from acting like a mate as possible. I needed to keep from having a hybrid. "I will not be disrespected by my own mate. And I will not let you walk around in your undergarments in front of other men!" he argued. "Fine!" I screamed. I grabbed a see through shirt and walked out the door before he could say anything. God I can already tell he is stubborn, it is kind of cute though. Wait. Did I really just think that? This stupid mate thing is getting to me, slowly, but it is. I can think about it, but I won't say or do anything a respectful mate would. I have to do this, so if I have a child they won't get killed. I also didn't want to have a child who, if they become evil, can easily kill a supernatural race. Wait I won't have a child at all, I sighed and continued across the sand.

The gentle crash of the waves calmed my thoughts. The smell of fish made its way towards me. I had the sudden desire of salt again, stupid fin folk cravings. Nick looked at me, "How is this going to answer my question?". I rolled my eyes " This is how" I stated before walking waist deep into the water. The skin on my legs bulged to form scales and my legs wound together going all the way down to my feet. The scales changed from my skin color to their normal state, a very light pink light green and blue. I went under water and stayed under before Nick could notice my tail, he had to notice my hair automatically change. I took in a big breathe of water. I watched Nick's legs come into the water, he obviously noticed that normal people, even supernatural beings, can't hold their breath that long.

I giggled letting bubbles come from my mouth. I looked up to where Nick was, he wasn't there anymore. A foot hit the end of my tail, I shrieked in pain and came above water to see a smiling Nick. "Gotcha' he winked, that ass. "Of course you would hurt your own mate" I said with a puckered lip. His eyes went black with lust and I laughed. "That's not funny I almost marked you right here" he growled. I looked him square in the eye "You wouldn't". "Oh but I would" he said with a small smirk. I grabbed his hand, "You asked for this" I whispered in his ear. Holding onto his hand tight I swam to a small sand island in the middle of Coral Beach within ten seconds. I commanded my tail to become legs again, I let go of Nick's hand my scales melted leaving human skin my feet transformed and my tail broke in half. My hair went back to normal.

"I don't think I will ever get over that" he stated. "Good" I shrugged. "Why are we here?" he asked. "To have some fun" I paused for a dramatic effect "I am pulling a prank". I waved bye to Nick and blasted off through the water after shifting. Now I have time to myself to think and get myself together, and remember we can't be together. The mother of a hybrid is hated by all, even their mate that helped make it. I have to stay away. When I got to shore I went into Nick's condo and pulled myself together when an immense pain hit my back. I fell to the couch screeching.
