The Rogue King & His Lune (The Hybrid Series) Book 14

Chapter 16: Hard Decisions Part 2

Esmerelda

I enjoyed the dinner and the intimate time with my mates; I wanted to make amends with Jerrod, and this was the perfect opportunity to do so, as I had hurt him deeply. I always messed up with them, and it's because I was afraid to give them all of me, the part of me that wants to avenge Roman, and I didn't want to let him go. After all, I made a promise to keep his name alive and give my son an empire in his name, and I knew what I had done to Jerrod was bad, making him have s*x with that girl ruin us, as he had never looked me in the eye since it happened. We had been distant, and I found that Geoff was also pulling away from me, "Maybe I should let everything go and be with them completely," I thought, but it was too late now; I was in too deep. I looked at them once we had settled in and watched them slowly drifting off to sleep; I loved them both very much, and I wondered what my life would have been like if I had never met Roman back in Bearmore.

I was asleep between my mates, feeling contented, feeding from both of them, and their blood was tasty. I promised Jerrod a child, so tonight was the best way for him to impregnate me, and I hope he did. I got up to go to the bathroom when my phone vibrated, and I took it, seeing a message from my head witch, who told me to get out because they were coming for me. I looked at my mates, knowing that I would see them at a later time, and hopefully, they would understand. I went into the bathroom and quickly put my clothes on when I saw her open a portal, and I left. I watched from a distance as Michael and his men entered the hotel, and I just left my mates and my children. They will understand when I am stronger and return to take out my enemies; I trust Geoffrey to keep the Kingdom in line until I return.

I was back at my hideout, and I was told my pack house had been raided as well, but my kids were safe; they weren't there, and I found it odd. I decided to lie low until the new moon, when I would be immortal; my informant had already told me that the book was in Aidan's vault and only the Supremes could enter, and I was furious. Lucille, my witch, said, "Aidan's blood runs through his kids and brother, maybe we could get his blood instead," and I decided maybe we should target Andrew to get his blood. My plan may be diverted for now, but it will be back on track soon, and I walked out into the forest, trying to contact my wolf, who had been dormant since I changed into a hybrid. She didn't want it, and she was angry when I took Jerrod as a lover, hurting our mate, so she went dormant; today, I needed her to come forward so we could sync together and be stronger to protect the men I love.

I knew they were probably arrested, or maybe they got out; I would know in due time, and I looked at the stars, and I felt a pain in my chest, and I screamed in pain. They were killing my mates, and I was furious; I started to change into my wolf, and it was painful; the sorrow she was feeling, and I howled in pain at the moon. It has happened again; they took my mates away from me, and this time, I will take something away from them. I want the fish boy dead; he was the only one who was vulnerable, and this will bring Drax, that son-of-b***h, to his knees. I wanted James dead; I was going after the kids who are not immortal and taking them out, my most loyal men were at this hideout, and I was ready for war, I walked back to the camp, and they saw my blood-red eyes, my vampire was on edge, hungry and we wanted revenge.

Geoffrey

I got the link from Drax that Michael was on his way up, and I told him, "Jerrod is with me," and he said, "Good, now keep him there." I felt Jerrod roll over, knowing he was awake now, and rested his head on my chest; I pushed him off, and he looked at me, saying, "Still playing hard to get," and leaned in, kissing my cheek. He started running his hand down my chest straight to my semi-hard c**k wrapping his hand around it, slightly stroking it, trying to get me harder. I asked him, "What made you think I want to f**k you again?" He then kissed me and said, "I am attracted to you, Geoff, I am jealous when you ignore me for her," and I smiled, "Really now, I didn't realize you love my c**k in your ass so much," and he smiled asking, "Where is our mate?" I said, "Probably in the bathroom," he sucked my n****e and wouldn't you believe my c**k did get harder, then I heard the door bust open and Jerrod went to take his knife off the table before a dart hit his neck knocking him out.

Michael walked up to me and said, "Drink this, it would make her think we killed you," and I asked, "What about the kids?" He said, "They are back at the Palace, and I said, "Wait, she has a traitor there, if I go there she will know," and he said, "f**k," linking someone. He said, "Tell Rex to take over, we have to make it look like you were killed, and we have her kids, she will come for us, and we will be waiting." I looked at Jerrod and asked, "What about him?" Michael curiously asked, "Do you mean your lover?" I saw him smirk at me, and I said, "Not funny, he changed on me," and Drax teleported, biting into Jerrod and reading everything. Drax looked at me and said, "He loves you," looking at me, and I was confused, saying, "But I am not gay, no offense to you, my lord, but I don't bat for your team."

I watched him and Michael mind-linking with each other, and then looked at me laughing; I asked, "What is so funny?" Drax looked at me and said, "If your d**k is hard, you bat for my team, you are lucky that I am a mated man," he was laughing so hard until he composed himself saying, "Don't worry, you are not my type, I still have standards," winking at me, and I was furious. Then they all burst out laughing and I said aggressively, "Give me the damn potion." I drank the potion and I felt the bond break, I almost passed out, but Drax touched my forehead, and the pain went away, he said, "You don't need to reject her, I broke the bond, Jerrod's bond is broken as well and by the way, he is your second chance mate," before he teleported, and I asked shockingly, "Wait what?" It barely had time to register what he said before we were being ushered to Michael's van in disguise.

Jerrod was over Allan's shoulder and dropped in front of me; I looked at him as he was unconscious, and I was worried, but I couldn't process what Drax had confirmed. We reached our hideout, and Jerrod was placed in a room until he had recovered; Rex had taken over as the temporary Rogue King, and the council, who were in on the plan once Ty visited them, let it play out until they had captured Esmi. My kids were there in Frogger Forest, and I went over to see them; the Renegade team got them out, and I watched my babies sleep, knowing I would have to tell them that their mother would not be coming back. I took a shower and I went to Jerrod's room, I looked at him and rubbed my hand on his face, feeling a slight tingling of our bond, and I pulled back. It all made sense why he was feeling the way he did and why we were drawn to each other, and I tried fighting it. I was furious, I thought about my past and my lost fiancé and unborn pup, I folded my hands in anger, and thought, how could the goddess mate me to a man?

Rex

I watched the palace loyalist get arrested, and Alpha Storm was leading the arrests; Ty popped in to ensure everything was going as planned. He gave me temporary power as king so no one would defy my orders in retaliation; my brother was already working with the council on getting the paperwork ready for Geoff. Dr. Masters, who was formerly known as Nurse Peggy, was going to be the royal head doctor at the palace. Peggy was hoping to have Geoff back when I told her, "He isn't going to make you Queen," but she still loved him, looked at me and smiled, holding onto an old promise he made. But I knew better and would let him break the news to her himself when the time was right. I was willing to mate her if she would have me, but I wouldn't force her, and help her with going over the hospital flies of whom to keep and transfer the others.
