The Tribrid's Mate

Chapter 2: Their First Night Together!

James' POV:

Well, last night was very unexpected for me. I had gone to Alpha Kent’s daughter’s birthday party as requested by Alpha Kent. He only requested me to come because we are close in age supposedly. I am nineteen years old and she’s turned sixteen years old. I’ve never ever, for once in my life, thought that his only child and daughter, Hopelynn would be my mate. But, once I saw her and smelled the air, I knew then she was mine and only mine forever. Well, she will be mine after I fought with her current boyfriend at the time, Henry. He’s not happy with the thought of her not being his. I ended up punching him and broke his nose. He was foolish enough to pick a fight with me, an Alpha and he’s just a regular wolf. Henry ended up threatening both Hopelynn and me. After all the drama caused with Henry, I asked my mate to dance the night away with me. She said yes and that was exactly what we did until the party was over and she was ready to go to bed.

Once the party was over, Hopelynn did not want me to leave. She wanted to spend the night in my arms, talking and getting to me while I got to know her. She begged her father, Alpha Kent to let me spend the night in her room with her. Alpha Kent said yes, knowing he can’t say no to his daughter and he asked for assurance that no funny business would happen. I reassured him a few times; Hopelynn was a little embarrassed because her cheeks turned even rosier than they normally are. I took that as our sign as our sign to getaway, but I waited for her to move. It took her a few moments, but she gave her father a hug and a kiss as she bid him goodnight. After telling him goodnight, she held out her hand for me to take it.

I took her hand and she spun me around and we ascended the stairs of their house up to her room. We were halfway from her bedroom when she turned around, cupped my face, and brought my lips to hers. It was a shock at first but once I got over my shock from the kiss, I started to move my lips in sync with hers. She then made the noise that just made me very hard while she opened her mouth, allowing me to dart my tongue into it. I placed my hands on her hips and pulled her close to me so that she could feel how attracted I was to her. When she was as close as she could get, she threw her arms around my neck and placed her hands in my hair, making me give out a groan of my own. After a few mind-blowing minutes of making out with her, I had to break away from the kiss in order to take a deep breath and I wanted to ask her a question. Plus, if we didn’t wouldn’t have pulled apart, we would’ve done something she would regret. As we pulled apart, our breaths were very raspy.

“What was that for, Hopelynn?” I asked completely clueless.

“That was me saying ‘Thank you’ for defending me against Henry. I already feel grateful to have you as my mate and I have a feeling we will be good together. But, of course, we would be good together otherwise the Moon Goddess would’ve never paired us together as mates. You seem so much better than Henry. Also, just to let you know, I am still a virgin. I know some males like their females to be virgin until their first time together. I had been trying to do my best to save myself for you, my mate. Henry was always pressuring me to have s*x with him and he insisted that I was his mate. I am not his mate, I am yours! I never gave into him because I knew he wasn’t my mate and that it would be wrong of me to do so. I was never really attracted to him. I have no idea what I was doing with him or why I began to date him in the first place. I am telling you this in hopes that there will never be any secrets between us.” She replied. Wow! I really don’t know what to think about what she had just said, but I am grateful that she had saved herself for me. It will make our first time even more special than what I was already planning. It made me happy to know that! I was also really aggravated that Henry was always pressuring her to have s*x with him, like when a girl says no it means exactly that. No!

“Well, there will never ever be any secrets between us and I will never pressure you into having s*x with me. I will wait until you are ready and sure that you actually want it to happen then. I really appreciate you telling me all that you did, even though you didn’t have to. I would still accept you as my mate no matter what.” I fired right back at her.

“I know that I didn’t have to, but I wanted to because I wanted to and you deserve to know.” She says sweetly. Then she smiles. I just look at her and place my lips on hers for one moment. Just a peck. Nothing more.

After she said that, she spun around and we walked up the rest of the way to her room. Then she opened up her door, ran and then jumped onto what looked like a comfy queen-sized bed. She got herself situated comfortably and after she got done with that, I walked over and got into the bed myself. She was too far away from me, so I pulled her closer to me, with her permission, of course! I immediately began to relax, knowing that my mate was in my arms. I loved how she felt in my arms. She made me feel complete and happy. Before this moment, the whole night felt like a really good dream or a teaser of the future. The really good dream or the teaser of the future became reality once I pulled her into my arms. After a while of silence, other than our breathing, I decided to speak.

“So, I know your father and obviously you, but is it just the two of you? Or where is the rest of your family?” I asked what seemed like a good question to start off our conversation in the first step to getting to know each other. I was doing what she wanted to do.

“My biological mother died shortly after giving birth to my twin and I. She was killed during a rogue attack. My father tried to save her but he was too late. My twin, Isaiah Lane was only alive for an hour and a half after birth. He had a hole in his heart, it was too big to repair. Everyone had said that my brother was a “fighter from conception on.” My father was devastated to lose the love of his life and his son, his only son by blood. It took him awhile for him to properly grieve. He waited until I was two before he decided to look for a chosen mate. He used to say that I needed a mother figure and he couldn’t bear the thought that I would grow up without knowing my mother. Then he met Karina, my mom. Her mate was attacked when she was preparing herself for the coming months when she was going to give birth to my brother, Brayden and the rest is history. Brayden and I may not share any blood, but he’s my brother and there’s no denying that I had helped raise him to be the young man that he is becoming. I love it that I have him, otherwise, I would’ve had a very sad childhood. He has even helped me stay happy through the sad and dark times. He had my back and I have his. You may have not met Brayden tonight because he’s shy and may have met his mate, but you will get to meet him tomorrow. You will also get to meet my mom then too. Ok, Sounds good?” She pauses, just long enough for me to nod my head. “Well, since you asked about my family, tell me about your family.” Ok, this should get interesting, not doubt! Here goes nothing!

“Well, I am the middle child of nine. I am part of a blended family too. My father died a little after I was born because of your grandfather, your mother’s father and his wicked ways. He had arranged a marriage that would be between my father and your mother. Your mother was a hot commodity for just about every Alpha in a 250 mile vicinity. My father waited until a few minutes after I was born to reject my mother. That is how heartless he was. Cared about no one except himself. He knew about the Alpha King and his plan to force his daughter into a marriage with a suitable Alpha of the Alpha King’s choosing. My father was willingly and chosen to be that suitable Alpha. He and the Alpha King had it all set up and then like three days before the wedding was supposed to take place when she (your mother) had enough of the bullshit from your grandfather and my father. She fled from the castle and onto your father’s territory. She was infuriated. She didn’t even know that her mate was your father. She didn’t even have her wolf yet. She didn’t know until later that day. Your mother was half-werewolf and half-vampire. She was the first Hybrid of her kind. Your father is half-werewolf and half-sorcerer. He is the first Hybrid of his kind. Them being mated and having you makes you, the first ever Tribrid. You are one-third vampire, one-third werewolf, and one-third sorceress.” I continued on for her.

“Wait, what do you mean my mother didn’t know my father was her mate and that she didn’t have her wolf yet?” She asked. Her curiosity showing.

“Your mother was just like a human with sorceress powers until my father and your father went at it. Your mother had your grandfather and his wife and their three sons killed. Plus, all who was on the palace grounds. Your father almost died until your mother came out challenging my father to a fight to the death. My father was not going to take it and so your mother took it to her advantage that she could basically kill his ass and no one would miss him. So, she fought him and then tore him to shreds. He died on his way back to my territory. Too much loss of blood. The first time I heard this story, I was surprised and angered towards your family but then I put myself into your father’s shoes. I would want to fight for my mate too. It would just be instinct to me to do so.” I answered.

“So, what happened to your mother?” she asked midway before getting a yawn to interrupt.

“I will tell you more tomorrow, but for now, go to sleep. You need your rest. You have had a very long day and I bet you are exhausted.” I say.

“Ok! But I will hold you to that!” She says very sleepily. I just smiled and fell asleep to the sounds of her quiet snores.
