Mated To An Hybrid

The next day, Brian made his way to the palace. He needed to see how his father was faring especially with his failing eyesight. The meeting with Wilfred was slated for seven p. m that evening and Brian was not ready for it. Nevertheless, he planned to face him squarely like the Alpha he was.

“Son, is that you”, Alpha Fredrick said.

Brian met him in the large living room where he was sorting out a pack of cards. Brian couldn’t understand how he was able to do this since his sight wasn’t all that good. He smiled as he picked up some cards that had fallen to the ground, setting them gingerly on the table.

“Yes father, I’m here. I stopped by to see how you’re doing this morning before I go into the office”, Brian said.

“Well, your jolly old man is alive and well. I think my eyesight is coming back gradually”, he grinned.

“Well, I’m happy to hear that. Dad, there’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you”.

Ever since he discovered that Serah was his mate, he had been wanting to tell his father. It wouldn’t do him good if he kept that bit of information away from him.

“I’ve found my mate dad”, he said.

For several minutes, Alpha Frederick remained quiet. Brian could tell that he was thinking about what he had just said but he didn’t quite understand why he took so long to respond.

“In all my years, I never thought I would see this day. The day my son would finally find his mate”, he rasped.

“I’m glad to dad. At least, it helps knowing that someone would help me in the running of the organization”, Brian smiled.

“Now, who is she? I want to meet her”.

Brian told him all about Serah and as he spoke, he missed her terribly. It was just last night he saw her but yet, he wished she was here with him.

“Hmm a witch and a werewolf… An hybrid. Son, are you sure she’s really your mate?”, Alpha Fredrick said.

“With every fiber of my being dad. I’m sure”, Brian said.

“I see. Well, you know that you can’t mess with an hybrid and I hear that she comes from a very strong family so you have to be careful on how you deal with her”.

Brian knew what he said was true but he hated to think that every one thought he was making a mistake by being her mate. Serah was harmless, he had spent enough time with her to know that.

“I know father and I intend on being careful. She’s a really nice girl when you get to know her”, he said.

“I know and that’s why I’m okay with her being your mate, the Moon goddess can never lead us astray”.

“I agree father. We’ll come visit as soon as we can, anytime soon Dad”.

“I’ll be counting on that. How is business and the office?”.

Brian had a mind to tell him about all his troubles with Wilfred but he waved that thought away. He didn’t want to cause unnecessary panic in his father’s mind considering how frail he looked.

“Everything’s going on fine Dad”, he simply said.

“That’s good to hear. If you need anything, you just let me know okay?”.

“I will dad, thank you”.

An hour later, Brian left the palace. Carlos, his driver who also doubled as a body guard sped through the highway, heading to his office.

“Boss, I just received an information”, he said.

Brian looked up from his iPad that was resting on his hands. From his tone, he could tell that Carlos was serious.

“What’s the gist?”, he said calmly.

“An unidentified male was seen lurking around your mate’s apartment. We’ve stationed in more agents to safeguard the area. As of now, we’re waiting for further information concerning this”.

Brian sat in fear as he mulled over Carlo’s words. He had never felt this much fear in his life before. He vividly remembered the last time he felt this fear was when his mother was kidnapped a year before her death.

“Turn around, take me to Serah’s house”, he thundered.

“Sir, there’s nothing to fear. The whole apartment is surrounded and even as we speak, the intruder might have gotten away”.

“I wasn’t asking for any explanations Carlos, turn the damn car around”, Brian seethed.

“Yes boss”.

Some minutes later, Carlos pulled into the driveway of Serah’s house. Brian dashed out of the car, heading towards the front door. True to his words, Brian could see security agents who wore plain clothes patrolling the area.

He walked towards her front door, banging it with all the strength he had. Serah opened almost immediately and when she saw Brian, she smiled. Her smile was short-lived though when she saw the worry in his eyes.

“Brian, what’s the matter?”, she said.

She ushered him in with worry in her eyes. Brian gripped her waist, pulling her to him. Serah could tell that he was beyond worried especially with the way his body was tensed up.

“I… Never mind, I’m just glad you’re okay”, he said, breathing in her intoxicating scent.

“Brian, you’re giving me a fright. What’s the problem?”, Serah said.

“I just heard some frightening things but it’s okay now that you’re in my arms”.

Serah remained quiet, stroking his dark brown hair that had grown into a shoulder length. She needed to remind him to get a cut. Though she loved the new length, she preferred the shorter length of his hair.

“I’m okay Brian why wouldn’t I be. I’m as safe as the president especially with all the security agents breathing down my neck. And don’t think I haven’t noticed them, they’re not so inconspicuous as they intend to”, she laughed.

Her laughter was like magic to his ears as he breathed in her scent. He was beyond relieved as he held her in his hands.

“That reminds me, my father would like to see you”, Brian said.

“Alpha Frederick? Really?”, Serah said.

“Yep, just call it an introduction of mates”, he laughed.

“That would be an honour. I’ll be ready whenever you are”, she smiled.

“That’s great. I’ll come pick you up this weekend, how’s that?”, Brian said.

“That’s okay. But please, you’re running late. It’s best you get to work”, Serah laughed, pushing him lightly.

Brian laughed as his mate escorted him out of the house. When they got to the car, he kissed her with everything he had right in front of his numerous staffs.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Laters baby”, he said before the car went off in a screech.
