Chapter 12

VANESSA

“Are there anymore dead lovers coming to life? New mates? Because I can’t catch a damn break” I don’t know what’s gotten into me, but it came out which wasn’t how royals spoke. Damn new age got me speaking their way.

“You know what I am no longer hungry, everyone enjoys”

"My Que—"

“I said everyone sit down and eat” everyone didn’t question me again as they sat down. Yet their eyes never left mine. I walked away and headed for the outside. Why does it feel like when everything settles down, a new bump in the road begins?

“My Queen can I speak with you for a second?” An elder woman approached me. She genuinely looks concerned, but my heart was aching.

“I know you have many questions but there is someone who can help guide your heart in its direction. You will learn the curse of the hybrid.” She rose from the dead and I sensed a witch on her.

“What curse do you speak of which?” Her eyes darted to her naked body. Oh, right clothes and children yup.

“Beta, I need you to find some clothes for everyone. These people don’t know any better of how every life “I don’t know as I was a beginner learning, as you see I’ve aged. We’re human and we age. But there is an elder that will be able to help you. She drifted in a different direction when we all rose.”

“After we get you settled, I demand you help me find her” she can’t just drop a bomb on me and expect me to figure it out.

“My Queen you have more control of your powers then I, that’s why you oversaw the breeds. Just bead East and you will pick up her sent”

It didn’t take me long to take my clothes off and dart off to the woods. I ran and ran as far as I could. I sniffed the air and tried to smell into the directions. Being immortal was a curse, but your rejected mate, forced mate, and second chance mate were in one building and I didn’t understand why. But to know that is what the world is cursing me with... I am ripping through the woods, weaving in and out of the trees. Sniffing the air for any trace of her.

Eventually my vampire sense came on, where breathing didn't exist anymore. The power of the hybrid is being able to switch certain traits off. But with doing that, my vision became worse. Not long after I slammed into something hard... Someone. Someone.

I trailed up and looked at the enormous wolf in front of me. He had very pale, red eyes. I shifted into my wolf form.

"Oh, for the love of the moon god, please tell me you aren't another mate. If I have one more, I swear I am going to fucking explode of orgasms" The guy look at me really confused. It walked closer to me, inhaling my scent. And I just knew that once again, a fucking mate!!! I walked back from it. I couldn't do it.

"It is nearly impossible for a person to have this many mates, Moon God. Father, can you stop already? It's not funny. It's sad and heartbreaking. The man shifted his eyes to me. When I noticed the dark red eyes started glowing. Now I am observing him. I took multiple laps around him.

"Holy shit you're a damn vampire too." He smirked in amusement.

“We don’t have mates, I'm Afraid. We don’t procreate with other vampires. We have all kinds of fun, but we don’t love forever. The witch you speak of is just a few miles north. She’s waiting for you, my queen.” He still held that smirk on his face, and I am unsure of the reason for it. I couldn't respond as I was lost in his lusting eyes. I stepped back slowly, before shifting and heading north.

My nose was picking up all kinds of scents. I am sensing more and more people coming from the dead. A blast of light stops me and throws me to a tree. I blacked out for a second, as my head hit the tree. As I finally gained my vision back. I notice a lady standing in front of me. The witch.

"It took you long enough to find me hybrid." I shifted back into my human form to be able to get closer to the witch. She had tan skin, black hair, dark red eyes.

"I need to know the curse of the hybrid, what is that about which?" She paced back and forth, snapping fire between her fingers.

"You come to me, insult me, and expect me to give you answers" She paced back, and forth once again. manipulating the weather, like she owns this place. I lifted my hand and deactivated her powers for a short period.

"Answer now, I have no problem making sure, Mortal." She finally took that smirk off her face, it showed rage. I am tired of these people coming back from the dead and testing me like they don't know what I am capable of.

Wait...

That's it. I am being tested once again by my father. Got dammit!!

"The curse of the hybrid makes you immortal. You will outlive any creature. You were made to procreate the immortals. You are the key to each breed Vanessa" She walked closer to me and grabbed my hand.

"What do you mean? I was made to be a human incubator?" She made circles in my hands, and I allowed her too.

"In the years coming, you will be tested by creatures that will test your ability to protect. But as you are one of the kinds. The gods of each creature brought you back, to breed. You are too creating leaders for each."

I stepped back surprised at what she was saying. So, I had no purpose other than to create more hybrids. More creatures.

"Is this why I have multiple mates? I will never not just love?"

I felt my face drop. This isn't the life I want. Is wanting to be loved so hard to want. But now I am brought by my father to breed to create more of myself. Making others immortal.

"Why is it I have more wolf mates?" She looked at me concerned.

"Because the werewolf breed is becoming extinct. A lot of the mates are becoming infertile coming back, as the recent events have happened. A pup has not been born in 100 years. It is dying. So, with different mates, that means more bloodlines." I started pacing back and forth. I lifted my hand granting her powers back. So, I am the key to every supernatural existence. I will never settle down either. It doesn't make sense.

"Can you help me reach the wolf god?" She now is looking irritated that I've used all my wishes or some sort.

"You think the wolf god or any of the gods want anything to do with you. They know they will have to answer some hard questions" She scuffed, gathering some belongings.

"I asked as a courtesy, now I am telling you. You don't realize that I control every supernatural character here. Because no one has ever had the guts to try to fight me. They won't, knowing they will lose. I keep the calm, and even for the greedy ass witches. You don't cast unless I say something" The witch took a moment to think, because she knew I was right.

"You're right, but if I do this. I ask for spell control. You don't control what I do. We are allies, yet I don't belong to you anymore."

"Fine, I will cost you your freedom. In return if I ever need help you don't say no without a valid argument." Her smirk now returns to her face. She came over and reached for my hand and pulled out the blade from her satchel. I know by making this promise, she can always go rogue. She cut the blade on hand and returned to cut her own.

As we shook hands concealing the deal. She raised her hands and started chanting a spell.

"Join me, it'll take more than just me to open up the portal."

We both began to recite the spell that opened the gates to the gods. My father wasn't my real father, but in the eyes of the wolves I was. I was the only thing that linked them, as their bloodline died with them.

Suddenly everything started shaking, the white portal wasn't opening. Instead a burst of light that pushed us all back shine in front of us. The white light was blinding us like no other. All the gods have appeared in front of us. My father looked nervous because it's harder when we are family. I stood up; steam radiating off me.

"Did you know my destiny all along?" They all looked in embarrassment. But they eventually started nodding. I feel the tears clouding up in my eyes.

"Was I ever abandoned? Or was I created by magic? You all have been lying as I have been nothing but loyal. It's time for the truth."

The siren goddess walked over too, she took my hands in her, and sighed.

"My sweet child, we have not been truthful to you, but I will now. You were created by the magic of each of us. You carry all our DNA. We gave you a little power of all of us. However, you were an abandoned human, whose parents left you in the woods to die. No basket, just naked and dirt." The tears were getting heavier and heavier.

The mood god stepped forward. "You were not made by magic, but you were gifted amazing powers to protect the kind that took you in. Not the kind who abandoned you. My daughter, you were a gift that made our family whole. But now it's time for you to give back, and make sure the population doesn't die. The Siren, The Vampire, and Pure Wolfs do not exist anymore.

"You can love as much as possible, but you will always be the fertile one. You will bear more than one pup. More than one Siren or witch or Vampire. You are the key for us not dying out. We ask that you please use this to your advantage. But that's the reason for your existing" I was in heavy tears, I don't think I cried as much as I did now. My father wrapped me up in his arms, as my body was going limp from the pain I felt in my stomach.

"My child I didn't want to cause you harm, but you have a gift and you will be wasting it on pettiness. We love you child."

He had taken a step back and joined the others. Another flash of light had come out. They were gone.

The witch took the chance to take off, so now it is just me naked. Alone crying.

A few branches cracked. I shot my head around as many others came from the trees. All the breeds shot around to watch my meltdown. King Alias, Alec, the vampire, other and other fucking mates. I didn't want to do it, but I know I was the mother bee.

I stood up and brushed myself off.

"We will have a meeting to find out who will impregnate me first" I shifted into my wolf and darted off. I need to be out of there first. But if that was my calling, then it had to be fulfilled. Happiness will never happen.
