Jade Pinkerton's pov

“She's a vampire but doesn't know it,” Nikolai whispered harshly in my ear and I glanced at him and said, “I know! We have to help her.”

Following after my mom I cared little about the rooms we hurried past as I focused only on her.

I had missed her more than I had realized.

Stopping in the sitting room she turned sideways and gestured for us to have a seat.

“Where's my step-dad?” I inquired and she lowered her eyes as she sat.

“There was an incident on the cruise that happened, and we decided to end our relationship, but that's not important, Jade, ” she responded harshly, giving me pause.

Sitting I looked at her with concern etched on my brow.

“Please tell me what is going on,” I pleaded to her.

Inhaling deeply her teary blue eyes met mine.

“Your father was the head of an organization that hunted monsters. He was special, and since you were his offspring, I wanted to keep you safe after his death. You see, you are like him and a real hunter;

    Jade Pinkerton's pov A couple of months later~ Standing awkwardly with an axe in my hand, I gauged the distance to the target covered in snow, then released it. It tore through the frigid air, then buried itself in the bullseye, giving me a smile. Rubbing my baby bump I winked at Nikolai and waddled toward him to see how I'd done. “You're improving greatly, but your balance will change after the pup is born, so you'll need to adjust your stance,” he said softly, and I nodded. “I am well aware, dearest,” I replied with a grin. “I really don't want to be an Alpha, Jade but winning against Jamison is personal for me.” “I know, but I'm going to win either way, so technically I will be the Alpha,” I told him confidently with a smirk, then wrinkled my nose at the stab of pain in my lower back that had crept up once again. I had tried to ignore it all morning but it was becoming more persistent. Eyeing me critically Nikolai asked me if I was getting contractions. Screwing my face I

    Jade Pinkerton's pov “Wait up!” I shouted as disappointment filled me at the sight of him walking away. “I should have stayed as he requested,” I murmured sullenly. “Yes, you certainly should have,” Senay stated, causing my shoulders to droop as I followed Nikolai through the trees. “I don't know why he is so pissy at me. He failed to disclose that he was related to Jake and now Jamison,” I snapped and closed my mouth seeing him waiting up ahead for me. I lowered my eyes from his stern ones studying me as I neared him. “You're angry with me because you left the house when I asked nicely for you to stay?” He questioned, and I side-eyed him, then shook my head slowly. “No, but I am sorry for killing your brother and getting challenged by the other one. I wouldn't have done any of that had I known they were your relatives.” Peeking up at him I was confused by seeing the grin playing on his face. “Please don't call them my brothers. I don't and will never call them family…You, T

    Jade Pinkerton's pov Just as I was about to turn and sprint away I was yanked back by a handful of my hair and hissed. Jamison turned me around to face him. I spat in his face, then narrowed my eyes, seeing the anger ignite within his irises. “Release me! I want nothing to do with you, “ I growled. “Perhaps you don't but I have something I wish from you,” he said in a rough, deeply accented timber. Eyeing him strangely, I shook my head and yanked away from his hold, leaving him with a handful of my dark hair strands. “I'm not interested,” I growled sourly then tore off in the direction of Nikolai's home. The persistent ass was hot on my heels, I glanced up at the tree branches above my head that I was passing. Then, spying a low-hanging one, I jumped up quickly onto it. Running carefully across its length, I went to another branch, then another, and heard Jamison cursing below. “I'm going to shoot you, female! Come down here!” “Fat chance,” I murmured as I slowly eased my w

  • The Hybrid's Captive   Chapter 47

    Jade Pinkerton's pov The following morning I woke to an empty bed. My stomach sank as my eyes focused on my nightstand to see a long-stemmed red rose and a handwritten letter addressed to me. “Did he leave to get the twin,” I muttered sourly as I reached to grab the note. My eyebrow cocked at his lovely penmanship as I read the note. “Dearest, I will return after I have dealt with the threat. Sorry, I didn't bring you; it wasn't done out of disrespect, but because I didn't want you or our pup to be harmed. Much love, Nikolai.” Studying the swirls of the letters and the ink I swallowed uncomfortably. “Did he write this with ink and quill? How old is he?” I questioned in exasperation. “Nikolai is aged and accustomed to the older generation,” Senay responded with cynicism. “Well, he's amazing in bed for an old geezer,” I chirped as I climbed off the bed and stumbled into the bathroom to shower. As I washed, I debated on whether I should go after him, but my Lycan was

    Jade Pinkerton's pov “Let me get Monica, I want her to stand with me,” I murmured, causing Nikolai to chuckle. “Bring Thomas as well since all four of us are tying the knot. It will be a dual wedding.” Smiling at him I shoved down the bitterness I was feeling over Sofia. After squeezing his hand, I called out for my bestie and her mate, but then glanced at him when Asher came to his side. “Are you sure they want to get married?” Nodding Asher smirked, “Their child needs its father's surname.” My eyes widened briefly as my insides bubbled with excitement, and when Monica sauntered up to me, I burst into laughter. “We are pregnant!” She grinned and looked at me nervously. Nearing my ear she asked how I knew. “Asher told me,” I chirped excitedly and she pouted. “I haven't told Thomas yet.” Asher tilted his head toward Thomas as he laughed, “I believe he knows now.” Monica and I turned to see Thomas's face light up with happiness as he rushed forward to greet my best friend.

    Jade Pinkerton's pov Thankfully, Thomas went to Nikolai's office to contact the Beta of Jake's pack and told me to relax in the living room. “You shouldn't be stressing yourself in your condition. The Beta will come quickly,” he sighed softly. Thanking him, I allowed Monica, Jesse, and Sofia to escort me out of the foyer and into the large living room. An hour later, I was sitting in the living room across from the Beta of the White Mountain wolf pack. His name was Trent Graves and he was a kind fellow. I carefully listened to what he was telling me. His guards were collecting the Alpha's body to return to the pack for burial and I would glance over at them as he spoke. “I can take care of the pack issues until you decide what you plan for us,” he said softly and I eyed him curiously. “I want you to know that I have no ill intentions for you or the pack members. I will be blunt with you,” I explained, exhaling deeply. “I was a human before all of this, and I have little to
