The Alpha's Accidental Mate

Marisol's POV

The press conference was scheduled for Tuesday morning at a convention center in Denver neutral territory, far from any major supernatural settlements.

"They'll eat you alive," Vera warned, helping me prepare. "These reporters have been waiting a week. They're going to ask everything."

"Agent Chen promised controlled questions only," I said, adjusting my blouse. My hands wouldn't stop shaking.

"Reporters don't follow rules." She handed me note cards. "Stick to the script. Don't let them provoke you."

Kael entered, uncomfortable in a suit. "The twins are ready. Dr. Rhodes has them in the holding room."

"How are they?"

"Calm. Too calm. Like they understand what's happening." He loosened his tie. "I hate putting them on display."

"We don't have a choice."

Agent Chen met us backstage. "Keep it brief. Statement about the twins being normal children. I discuss supernatural-human cooperation. Five pre-screened questions. Done."

    Marisol's POVDmitri moved faster than anything I'd ever seen.One moment he was across the courtyard. The next, he was in front of us, reaching for Luna.Kael intercepted, slamming into him mid-shift. They crashed through a wall."Mama!" Aurora's flames erupted, creating a wall of fire between us and Dmitri's forces."Good girl," I said, pulling both twins behind me. "Luna, can you reach Yuki and the others?"*Already did. They're moving. But Kenji is scared. His power is making a storm.*Dark clouds formed overhead. Thunder rumbled."Tell him the storm can help us. Let it come."The battle raged. Kael's pack fought The Architect's enhanced hybrids, but we were outnumbered. These weren't normal soldiers—they were previous generation hybrids like Katarina, trained from birth for combat.Vera appeared, firing specialized weapons. "The tunnels are compromised! They knew about them!""Your spy," Katarina said. "They gave The Architect your complete layout."Dmitri emerged from rubble, Ka

  • The Alpha's Accidental Mate   Chapter Thirty-Eight: Growing Pains

    Marisol's POVSix months after the Tokyo extraction, our compound had transformed into something between a sanctuary and a small village.Dr. Yuki Tanaka and her twins occupied the east wing. Two more families had joined Dr. Camila Santos with her daughter Ana, and the Hoffmans from Germany with their son Erik, a teleporter."We're running out of space," Vera said during our security briefing. "And resources.""Marion's working on expansion funding," Kael said.I looked at the monitor showing the children's play area. Luna and Aurora, now eighteen months old but looking and acting like five-year-olds, were teaching Kenji and Hiro basic telekinesis. Ana made impossible shapes appear. Erik kept disappearing and reappearing."They're getting stronger," Dr. Rhodes said. "Luna's telepathy now reaches a mile radius. Aurora can generate flames hot enough to melt steel.""What about the children still with The Architect?" I asked."Seraphine hasn't allowed any visits," Morrigan said. "She kee

  • The Alpha's Accidental Mate   Chapter Thirty-Seven: First Birthday

    Marisol's POVLuna's and Aurora's first birthday fell on a crisp autumn morning. According to the calendar, they were one year old. According to their development, they were closer to four."Mama, can we have cake?" Luna asked in full sentences."Yes, sweetheart. Auntie Vera is making you both a special cake.""With fire?" Aurora asked hopefully, small flames dancing on her fingertips."No fire on the cake, Aurora."Aurora pouted but extinguished the flames. Both girls wore matching dresses Luna in silver, Aurora in gold.The celebration was small. Just pack members and the core coalition."They're beautiful," Marion said. "And terrifying. Luna just moved six toys simultaneously while having a conversation.""By age two, they might have the mental capacity of a ten-year-old," I said.Kael appeared with wrapped presents. The girls tore into them excitedly."Books!" Luna exclaimed.Aurora got fireproof gloves. She immediately generated flames in them, watching as they didn't burn."Now

    Marisol's POV"That's impossible," I breathed. "Dr. Rhodes is back at the compound with Luna and Aurora."The woman's smile widened. "Is she? Are you certain?"My blood turned to ice. Through the connection Luna had given me, I reached out desperately. For a terrifying moment nothing. Then I felt them, faint but present. Safe. The real Dr. Rhodes was with them."A duplicate," Morrigan said. "Or a shapeshifter. That's not Imani.""Very good," the fake Rhodes said, her form shimmering. The features melted away, revealing someone else a pale woman with silver hair and eyes that held centuries. "I'm Seraphine. The real architect of this program.""You're The Architect?" Kael demanded, moving protectively in front of me."One of them. There are seven of us, actually. A council that's been guiding supernatural evolution for millennia." She gestured to the cribs. "These children are our greatest achievement.""They're not achievements," I said. "They're babies you stole.""We liberated them

  • The Alpha's Accidental Mate   Chapter Thirty-Four: First Contact

    Marisol's POVThe first family to respond was from Japan.Dr. Yuki Tanaka appeared on our video call at 3 AM, looking exhausted. Behind her, I could see two cribs and hear soft cooing."Mrs. Blackwood, Alpha Blackwood," she said in perfect English. "Thank you for reaching out. I didn't know who to trust until I saw your message.""Call me Marisol. How are your sons?""Overwhelming." Yuki managed a tired smile. "They're three days old and already showing abilities I can't explain. Yesterday, Kenji made all the lights flicker. Today, Hiro made it snow inside our bedroom. In Tokyo. In summer.""Weather manipulation," Morrigan said, appearing beside us. "Extremely rare. Your sons are remarkable."Yuki's expression shifted to fear. "That's what the other woman said. The one who contacted me yesterday. She told me my boys were special, that she could help. But something felt wrong.""Did she give a name?" Kael asked."No. Just said she represented an organization that helps hybrid families.

  • The Alpha's Accidental Mate   Chapter Thirty-Three: Restoration

    Marisol's POVThe light was blinding.I shielded my eyes as it poured from Luna into Kael, wrapping around them both like liquid silver. Aurora began glowing too, her light gold and warm, reaching toward her father and sister."What's happening?" I shouted over the sound like wind chimes and thunder combined."She's restoring the bond," Morrigan said, awe in her voice. "Luna is rebuilding what was destroyed. I've never seen anything like it."Kael gasped, his knees buckling. He sank to the floor, still holding Luna. Aurora climbed out of her crib climbed, which she'd never done before and pressed her hand against his leg.Through the bond, I felt him. Not fully, but a thin thread reconnecting us. And through it came a flood of emotion.Confusion. Pain. Recognition."Marisol," he breathed, and this time my name held meaning. "I remember. God, I remember everything."The light faded. Luna settled against his chest, exhausted. Aurora climbed into his lap, and both girls fell asleep.Kael
