His Hybrid Mate | COMPLETED

Everybody stayed silent for at least five minutes, not knowing what to say. Grayson and Caleb shifted back into their human form, and Tyler gave them each a pair of shorts.

Melissa and I were standing together, trying to figure out what to say.

"Grayson–..." I started but he cut me off.

"What are you?" Grayson asked me with a hurt look in his face.

"I'm a hybrid. My mother was Alyssa Jones, daughter of Alpha Jason Jones, and my father was a vampire," I explained, softly.

"And you didn't think to let us know that you are a hybrid?" Allison asked, hurt.

"I was trying to protect you all. I moved here to escape from rogues who were trying to kill me. I didn't tell you guys because I was scared that you will get hurt."

"Is that why you were going to leave town?" Grayson asked, bitterly.

"I was leaving town because Carson. He is my half brother, and he wants me dead. I don't know why, but he does."

They all looked at each other as they talked through their mind links.

"Did you turn Caleb into a wolf?" Zoey asked me, calmly, as she tapped her finger on her leg.

I shook my head,"No."

"Did you kill that girl?" Allison asked, keeping her eyes on me.

"I think I did, but it wasn't my fault–" I started, and Allison cut me off.

"That girl had a family! Did you know she was pregnant?! How could you just kill her?!" Allison yelled at me, taking multiple steps towards me.

She was pregnant?

I took two lives. Neither of them will live to graduate highschool, get married, etc. I took that away from them. I took away their lives.

"Allison, it wasn't her fault," Julian said, walking between us.

Allison's eyes widen as she looked between me and Julian. Then it clicked in her mind.

"You knew?!" Isabelle asked Julian, standing beside Allison.

"Isabelle, it's not what think. When Caleb was in wolf form, he almost killed me. Brooklyn saved me, and in doing so, she got bite by him. She told me not to say anything, and she would explain herself. She did, and I helped her with her bite," Julian explained, frantically.

"I'm your mate! Why wouldn't you tell me?" Isabelle asked, trying to keep her voice at bay, but I could see her holding her tears back.

"I made him promise me. Please don't be mad at him. It's not his fault. I made him stay quiet, and for that, I'm sorry," I apologized, stepping in front of Julian.

"What exactly happen last night?" Grayson asked me. I could sense he was mad, but he was trying to cover it up.

"Adrian is a vampire. He works for Carson, and he used something to make me shift. I had no control over anything. He created a diversion for you guys so y'all wouldn't come looking for me for a few minutes," I explained, before adding,"I woke up in the woods this morning with blood all over me."
