Hybrid of the Forbidden

V. Pair of Threats

The shadow moved so we could see him. He was a handsome, tall and muscular man with dark hair. He wore a black long sleeve shirt that hugged his well-built chest and jeans. He looked like us, just a vampire. Then I saw his eyes. His blood dark red eyes, it sent a shiver down my spine: he fed off of humans. He also wasn't alone, a small girl followed him, she was short and had the same eyes as the male and a red pixie haircut. "I'm Eros and this is my little sister Qira. We mean no harm to you, but we are here to warn you, Janeane Harris."

I stiffen and let out a low warning hissed, "How do you know my name?"

A small smile formed on his lips, "I can read minds like you, Sweetheart," He told me.

“Right, and I’m assuming you can fly too.”

He narrowed his eyes and I rose an eyebrow, challenging him. “They don’t know, do they?”

Fuck. My eyes widen, “Don’t.”

I balled my fists as he revealed my secret, "What else haven’t you told us?" Abby hissed.

“It’s nothing, Abby."Vincent walked towards them, "We should talk somewhere else. Robin, we will discuss the treaty furthermore on a separate occasion."

"They intruded our land, I need to know what's going on, " he said.

"Your life, mutt." The girl, Qira, said, only making him growl.

"Let's go." I said as I scanned Eros' head, but he blocked me with a smirk.‘He really is like me,’ I thought, ‘He can read people’s minds….but how?’By the time we all got to the house, Abby had begun to ambush me with questions.

"Why haven't you told us about this? When were you planning to? How does it work? Is it like my ability? What can you hear? Can you hear everyone's thoughts? Every thought? Why aren't you answering me?"

"Shut up," I told her.

Vincent let out a sigh, “Why haven’t you told us?” Why did you keep it a secret?”

"I found out a week or so after my rebirth a-and, I wasn't planning to tell you because of this exact situation. I don't know how to works or if it's like your ability, Abigail. Yes, I can hear everything, but I always tune it out. It is too much all at once and it drives me insane. I can’t have a moment of silence because every second I am invaded by thoughts. I lost the privacy of my own head and I didn’t want you guys to know because of that. I would always have someone trying to tell me something. At least by keeping it on the low, I gave you a sense of privacy. I can’t always hear everything. Most times I don’t. And I can't hear wolves for some reason. Any more questions or are you going to shut up?" I said, rubbing my temples as their minds were going wild with instances and memories of our conversations.

Kenneth looked at me, ‘You can hear me? Can’t you?’

I nod at him, “Yeah, I can.”

“I am sorry you had to deal with that, Jane, I just wished you would have told us sooner." She muttered.

Vincent turned and looked at the pair od strangers. He would deal with me later, "You said you came to warn my daughter, warn aganist who? " Vincent asked as we all stood in the kitchen.

Well let me start from the beginning.Royalty is something all the creatures have, Witches have-" Eros gestured Abby to say it.

"Grand Witches." She said, confused as to why this Eros character was making a show of things.

"Werewolves have?"

"A King Alpha." Robin said as he walked in wearing shorts and a T-shirt.

"Well, Vampires have a monarchy, The Moroi Coven. " Qira said."Around 135 years ago, King Velaro, found out about a romance between a witch and a werewolf. He immediately captured them and took them to his castle."Eros said."Our older sister, Zetrova was the Monarch's lover, therefore at his side when the two were brought in for their execution. We were also there, we were like his personal assistants due to our gifts, they are rare in a way." Qira paused and Eros took over.

"Like Janeane, my gift is mind reading, and my sisters is able to read auras. She can see the links between people and health and so on." He said," As the execution took place in the throne room, the witch managed to cast a spell on a kife and killed the Monarch. Zetrova became the new Monarch and killed them herself in a wild rage. But before the witch died she told me something telepathically. How she knew about my gift is still a mystery to me."

"She knew Zetrova would go mad, the death of her husband would be too much. She would want their heads. The message gave us hope since the war would destroy many." Qira said. "You see, the werewolf was the only child of the King Alpha, and so when he died- "

"So did the werewolf gene. " Robin gasped.

"Exactly, which started a war in the Supernatural world like no other. And to make matters worse, the witch was a sister to the Grand Witch. Witch coven joined the battle in Siberia."

"So what does that have to do with us?" I asked.

"The witch's name was Rosemary Olivia Harris, and the werewolf's was George Trevor Blackwood. " Qira stated. My eyes widen, everything starting to piece together.

"A month before the witch was captured, they had a baby girl. Janeane Harris." Eros stated, "but until a week ago, we thought you were dead, that you had died in the Bell Tower accident in 1890. But when our personal witch casted a fortune spell, you appeared and stopped Zetrova from completely destroying your family lineage in the future, so now she will hunt you down in order to prevent her downfall."

"How do you know about the accident? "I asked.

"My sister was willing to torture you for the death of her lover. The message your mom gave me led me to you and we . . .w-we couldn't do that to you. We protected you as long as we could until a guard found us on top of the church that day. We fought, and the tower fell. We helped find you, and we took you to the hospital. . . But that's all we could have done." Qira said softly.

"So why are you here now? To finish what you started? " Ken growled.

"No, we want you to kill Zetrova. " Eros said.

"What?!?"I asked.

"She has killed more than half of the wolf population, a quarter of the vampire and witch. She kills humans without mercy and has almost killed us. " Qira cried, "She may have been born our sister, but she is just a monster now."

"Even if we agree, how would we kill her?" Abby asked. "If she is the monarch-"

"Well a half breed, like you, can kill her entire guard army, I doubt a Tribrid can't kill her," Eros said.

"A what?"

"Well technically you're a hybrid, a child of the spirits and the moon turned vampire. " He said looking at me, "You're the hybrid of the forbidden.

"No, not happening. " I hissed, stepping back.

"Janeane, she killed your parents. " Abby pointed out.

"And I won't let her kill my new family," I say. "If my mother was a powerful witch, who did Zetrova manage to kill her?"

"To keep you safe," Eros said.

I took an unnecessary breath. "None of this makes any sense," I muttered. "If it comes to it, I'll do what I will have to do. "

Eros nodded and my family looked in approval.

"But when?"Abby asked.

"It will take around a month for her to get ready for battle." Eros said, "They've lost their only advantage."

Vincent sighed and nodded, "Eros, we will help as much as we can. You're welcomed to say here."

Eros smiled, "Thank you Vincent, and I'm sorry for t-the....overwhelming amount of news, I didn't mean it in a harmful way." He said, glancing in my direction.

I scowled, "Yeah, thanks a lot for that."

"Jane." Sara scolded.

Eros smirked,'You have quite a temper.' He said telepathically.

My eyes widen,'Great, now I have literally no privacy.'

"No, actually, blocking is quite an easy trick."

The others scowled, "What?!"

Qira smirked, "They were talking. Telepathically." She said, looking at us amused, "That's odd." Qira mumbled and trailing off as she took a step towards Robin.

"What?" He asked uncomfortably.

"There is a bond stronger than natural here, " she said and she eyed him carefully.

"Qiranna. It's not your business. " Eros warned.

"It's a mating bond between Robin and you , Jane. " She gasped, finally getting it. Robin froze.

"The f**k?" Kenneth asked

"Shit." Qira ducked her head and stepped behind her brother's broad shoulder

"Forgive my sister, she is forever an immature child." Eros scolded though there was discomfort in his thoughts

Suddenly, Kenneth began to roar with laughter and all I did was not try to rip his arm off.

"What's so funny? " I asked through my teeth.

"You couldn't even get a mate within your own species. " he roared and Abby began to snicker.

"For the record, neither did you. " I shot back and watched Abby hissed.

"Shut up." She said.

"Or what?"I said.

"Girls take it outside. " Sara warned as Abby stalked towards me. She lunged and I dodged her.

Abby chanted a fire projectile and I suddenly made an air bubble trappings her in, "Holly mother of-'

My perplexed family gasped, Eros on the contrary was calm.

Abby's expression changed too, ranging from jealousy to bewilderment. In my defense, I have observed Abby do her spells and use them on me whenever we argue or fight, and we fight often.

I set her down and went inside her mind to see what other spells she had when suddenly I hit the wrong button. Abigail's knees buckled and she held her head. I stepped way immediately. She got up and glared at me.

Now I've done it.

"AB, I'm sorry, I didn't mean any-"

"Deconecea Inconsienia." She chanted.

Then everything went black, I could still hear everything and sense my surroundings .It was just my inability to move that was odd. My visions was blurred, but my eyes managed to close as I fell off my feet. Someone caught me just before I hit my head on the ground.

"What the hell did you do?" Ken gasped.

"She isn't dead." Robin said in relief, then I realized it was him who caught me.

"How are you so sure?" Sara asked.

"If she is his mate, them the moment she died he would have felt it. Werewolves have a bond like that." Vincent said camly.

"What was that, AB?" Ken asked again.

"I don't know what it was. " she murmured.

"You ripped her conscience off her body, it''s an usual spell and most of the time harmless." Qira said as she examined me and place a hand a on my forehand.

"How long will she be unconscious? " Robin asked as he lifted me up from the ground and to a sofa.

"It depends on how strong the witch and the effected one is. " Eros said.

Then Qira said, "So I'd say-" I shot up and hit my forehead with Robin's.

About a second."She finished off.

"Oh, god you're okay." Abby came said as she hugged me tightly,"Grassi, oh I'm sorry Jane."

"I'm fine Abigail. Sorry Robin. "I apologize for hitting him.

"I'm good." He said as he creased my cheek."Well, I'm glad you're fine." His hear shot up and he looked out the window. "I have to get going. I'll see you at school?"I nodded,"Bye, Robin." I said softly and disappointed he had to leave.

"Bye, Jane. Good night." He said and nodded his head before he walked out followed by a glow of gold light.

A few minutes later Kenneth chuckled, "He's whipped."

I hissed, "Oh, shut up, won't you."

"Defensive much?" Abby asked.

"Abigail callate porfavor!" I snapped.

She smiled, "Oh, she's really mad if I got her to speak Spanish."

I glared at her, "The fact that I just found out who my parents were, who killed my parents and who wants to kill me has me on a bit of an edge, Abigail."

Vincent shook his head,"Jane, you're missing the point. You're a hybrid. Who knows what you can do."

I shook my head, my science driven part of me not willing to appreciate this fact,"I've kept my gift under the wraps long enough, and the moment I slip danger comes. I'd rather not find out what I can do." I say and went up the stairs, The others following soon after showing Eros and Qira their guests rooms.

I tried to go to sleep, but it couldn't find me. I turned restlessly and laid awake thinking of all the things that happened.

I rencountered a girl I saved way back when.

We made a treaty with a werewolf pack.

I found out what happened to my real parents.

My mom was a witch, my dad was a werewolf and I'm a hybrid turned vampire.

I know someone wants to kill me because of what I am.

I met the reason why I almost died in 1890.

I have a witch and a werewolf side.

My wolf side is an Alphas mate.

And my life is turning upside-down.
