MY HYBRID MATE

"Sera, I am not the one to repeat my words. So you better say yes in front of the whole kingdom when I ask you to mark me," Damien said, glaring at me. "Never," I spat. "I will never mark you, you fucking hybrid," I said with all the anger inside me. "Then you leave me no choice," he said as his eye color shifted from hazel to a deep crimson red. His vampire side had taken over. He took a step closer, and my heart started pounding in my chest. I knew exactly what was going to happen next. This time, it was his vampire side. Last time, it was his wolf. Each time I resisted him, he hurt me, made me regret it. And now I knew he was going to compel me, force the answer he wanted out of me. I quickly shut my eyes tightly so he couldn't use his power against me. There was no point in running, I was already injured, already weak. A cold, dark laugh filled the room, sending a shiver down my spine. "My, my, look how afraid you are, my Sera," he mocked. I could feel him getting closer, his presence suffocating. Suddenly, he yanked my hair back, hard. I screamed in pain, but I refused to open my eyes. "Be my good girl and open your eyes, Seraphina," he commanded, his voice low and dangerous.

"Never," I growled in defiance. I couldn't believe the Moon Goddess had mated me to this monster. I despised him. Every inch of my soul hated him. "Give me all the pain you want, but I will never obey you," I spat, my voice filled with hatred. He chuckled darkly. "Then, as you wish," he murmured.

I barely had time to process his words before sharp pain pierced my neck. His fangs sank into my flesh with full force, tearing through my skin. I let out a blood-curdling scream as agony burned through me. My eyes snapped open involuntarily, locking onto his, and in that moment, I realized I had made a terrible mistake.

He pulled away from my neck, his lips stained with my blood. His crimson eyes bore into mine, victorious. Fuck. Now, it was going to end badly.

Meet Seraphina Ashford. A coldhearted, deadly killer of supernatural species. On the surface, she is a ruthless, emotionless assassin who hunts werewolves and vampires at night, eliminating them without hesitation. But beneath that hardened exterior lies a kindhearted girl, one who has suffered far too much. No one knows her true self. No one sees past the persona she wears like armour. She used to be a wolf. But now, she is a human. A fragile being, stripped of her once-powerful nature. By day, she hides in plain sight, living a normal life as a high school teacher, blending into the human world as if she belongs. But by night, she becomes something else entirely, a force of vengeance, a silent shadow that strikes down those who threaten her kind. Her hatred for wolves and vampires runs deep, carved into her soul by the horrors of her past.

She has dedicated her life to hunting them, wiping them from existence. But what happens when fate plays a cruel joke on her? What happens when she finds out that she is mated to the most dangerous creature of them all? It was supposed to be a simple school trip. She was taking her students into the forest for an educational excursion, nothing out of the ordinary. But fate had other plans. That day, deep in the heart of the forest, Seraphina's world came crashing down. That was the day she met him.

Meet Damien Alexander Blackwood. Alpha of the Blood Eclipse Pack. The most feared pack in existence. A pack known for their brutality, for their merciless slaughter of anyone who stood in their way. They were killers. Destroyers. Damien was their leader. A ruthless, powerful Alpha who ruled with an iron fist, a man who did not know the meaning of mercy. His name alone sent fear coursing through the veins of those who heard it. To challenge him was to invite death. To betray him was to suffer.

His pack treated their mates as nothing more than possessions, tools to be used and discarded. They did not believe in love. They only see them children making machines. And Damien? He was worse than all of them combined. Because he was not just a wolf. He was a hybrid.

A deadly combination of vampire and wolf, a creature unlike any other. Unstoppable. Unforgiving. And now, he had found his mate. But there was one problem. She did not want him. She despised him. She wanted him dead. But Damien did not accept rejection. And he was not about to let his mate escape him. She was his.

And he would make sure she never forgot it.
