The Hybrid Mate

Chapter 4

"It means you need to reject me and chose a new mate." I say to the crowded room. Everyone's heads snap to look at me but I ignore them all and continue to stare into the eyes of my mate. Gabriel raises from his chair and attempts to make his way towards me. "You must reject me." I repeat in a flat tone with no room for negotiation stopping him in his advancement. 

I hear gasps from my mother and Uncle A while Luna Lucy has a look of relief on her face. The two of us have a rough history that she has never been able to get over. I wouldn't be shocked if she had tried to turn Gabriel away from me already. 

Gabriel shakes his head. "I won't. I won't do it." The inner Alpha in him coming through in his stubbornness. "You are my moon blessed and I will not throw that gift away when I just found you." He starts to make his way towards me again before I stab him where it hurts most, his pride. 

"If you will not reject me, then you leave me no choice than to reject you leaving your wolf weakened." I tell him never losing eye contact with him. The hurt, pain, and shock fill his sea blue eyes that look like the sea on a rainy day. Everyone, including Lucy, is shocked with my statement. 

Lucy jumps up from the couch and grabs Gabriel's arm trying to get him to look at her. "Do as she says." Her eyes jump to mine allowing me to avoid Gabriel's. "Reject this piece of unnatural hybrid trash and we can find you a more suitable Luna." With those words out chaos broke in the room. Claire looked ready to slap Lucy while Mia had started to make her way towards her only to be stopped by Toby who growled lowly at Lucy. Dad looked ready to fight someone while mom was the only one with the balls and the ability to stand right in front of Lucy. 

"What did you say about my pup?" She demanded glaring at her Luna. 

Lucy released Gabriel's arm, who was looking at his mother in shock, and turned to my mother. With a smirk on her face she says, "Oh I'm sorry, I meant to say that your disgusting daughter is not worthy of my first born son and future Alpha." 

Mom looked ready to snap but her words hit me first. Next thing I know Lucy's neck is in my hand which is dangling her in the air. I feel the energy rush into me as release the words I have been trying to deny. 

"I am Clarabelle Johnson, first born to Beta Micheal Johnson of the Blackwood pack, head warrior of the Fae Queen, adoptive daughter of said Queen and future Queen of all the Fae." I say holding Lucy's neck. "If I wasn't merciful I would snap your neck for such accusations against me dear Lucy." I release her into a heap on the ground before turning towards everyone in the room. 

Everyone is frozen in their spots in shock, minus Mia. Mia is down on her knee with her head bent down bowing to me. "Mia please rise. We have places to be." I command before leaving the room with her hot on my tail.

****

"Belle! Come back here bitch!" Mia yells at me down the hall. I stop but don't turn towards her. 

"How can I help you today Mia?" I ask. 

"What the hell just happened? And you are not allowed to bullshit me right now understand."

I turn towards her. "Let's go to the room. Too many ears." She nods as we head back to our rooms. However, once we get into mine we don't stop until we reach the closet. Once inside the small walk in I find the loose board on the ground and pull it up allowing a small person, or us, to slip into a panic like room with a computer system set up with monitors and plenty of previsions. Taking the chair in front of the computer I turn it to look at Mia who is still standing. 

"What is going on?" Mia begs me to answer. 

"Mazeikeen contacted me." 

Mia's eyes widen. "Why in gods name would Maze contact you? That witch hates you for the fact that you have the Queen's favor."
