Betrayed By My Mate - Hybrids Sorrow Novels & Stories

Not wanting to place all their hopes on the curse alone, they also bewitched Matthias into thinking another woman was his mate. When Alessia could recognize Matthias as her true mate, he was already under the thrall of this other woman, and Alessia’s pain from the constant betrayal of her mate bond caused her to end up taking her own life, instead of being forced to live with the pain indefinitely. When Matthias felt the pain of his true mate’s death, it broke him out of the thrall of the woman who had enchanted him, but by this time, it was already too late. Alessia was gone, and he too, in the shame of his ultimate betrayal, took his own life.

There was a strong connection between the two of them. Annette had never thought that Kyle would betray her. She wondered, 'Would Kyle have done it if he'd known how much it would hurt me?' She shook her head, trying to clear her mind. Yet she failed. She couldn't get rid of the scene she just ran into. It stuck in her mind. Annette figured that she needed to get drunk and numb herself. She walked into a bar in a daze. Teachers from the werewolf university wouldn’t come here, and no one would judge her as a Hybrid or a Rogue.

The pain from the betrayal stabbed me again in the heart, causing me to feel more pain; this time around, it hurts more than Freya's stab. It felt more painful knowing that my downfall came from the very person I loved most, the person I gave my heart to. I trusted him more than anyone in my life; I gave up everything I had: my mother's last wish, my chance of becoming the Luna of my pack, my chance of leading my people. And all I got in return was humiliation, he ganged up with my step-sister and plotted my downfall.

“I’m done, Cain. I am so fucking done. If I could walk out of this pack right now and never come back, I would.” “All this because we don’t want you tattooing a vampire?” “No,” I laugh bitterly. “All this is because I’ve always been an outsider. Mother hates me. I’m being forced to marry Kai and let him claim me. I’m not even allowed to do the one thing I actually love anymore. I’m not allowed to find my mate.” “Witch hybrids don’t have mates.” “Yeah… of course.” My voice cracks. “Sorry. I forgot. I’m not allowed to find someone I love and marry them either.”

"Whatever they buried, it's waking up in you. That's why your wolf wouldn't rise for that weak prick Sveinn. It was waiting for real blood." I swallowed hard. "And you? You want the real blood or just the leverage?" He turned the horse around a sharp bend. The trail dropped into a narrow valley. "Both. But mostly I want you alive long enough to figure out what the fuck you are. Dead mates don't do me any good." Mates... The word still felt like a slap. I opened my mouth to tell him exactly where he could shove that bond when hoofbeats pounded up from behind. Matthías pulled alongside, face tight.

But he stopped me, holding my cheek as his eyes bore into mine. “Do not ever think that. You are mine, omega or not, and we are equals,” he enunciated every word as if to erase the thoughts plaguing me. I was stunned by the intensity of his confession. He leaned his forehead against mine, shutting those intense grey orbs and sighing. “The man I thought was my mate died yesterday, and now you're here, London,” I whispered, shaking my head. “I feel like I've betrayed him,” I choked on a sob, and his gaze softened considerably, the pad of his thumb softly grazing my cheek as he stared at me like I was his whole world. What I did to deserve this man will always remain a mystery to me.

Katherine's tone sounded genuine, but it couldn't erase years of rejection after William severed his mate bond with my mother. My wolf Cora curled into a tight ball inside me, trembling with suppressed grief. The ice cream incident surfaced with painful clarity. I couldn't have been more than eight years old, attending a territory gathering with both sides of my fractured family. "Look what Grandmother brought for you girls!" Evelyn had announced, holding two special moonlight ice creams that glowed with subtle blue light. When a passing beta server accidentally bumped into Evelyn, one cone became scraped and stained with dirt. "I want the clean one!" Olivia had immediately demanded, snatchi

“Until everything I believed was ripped from me. Until I was taken. Raped. Bitten by one of your kind.” Some people shifted in their seats. I saw them. “I didn’t want to become a Neotide. I sure as hell didn’t ask to be your Luna. But fate had different plans. The Moon Goddess had different plans.” I paused, catching Dylan’s eyes again. They’d softened—just slightly. But the storm was still there, burning in them. “She gave me a mate. A powerful, fearless Alpha. One who doesn’t love easily, but who loves me. Fully.” I swallowed. “But this... this moment... isn’t about him. It’s about *me*.”

His scent felt more like a trigger right now, it felt like a balm and I have no clue why but the tears wouldn’t stop even when I feel so safe and at ease with him. The tears just wouldn’t stop. The safety in his embrace was overwhelming, clashing with the danger my mind still couldn’t let go of. I hate myself. “Ohh.” I winced in pain, my heart raced as the matebond pulsed between us, stronger than ever and I felt like it was a signal, a sign that the mate bond was trying to help me get rid of this trauma.

And when it was all over, she left me with a gift. Helen cursed me. I stood abruptly, chair legs screeching against the floor. I walked to the window and stared out at the training grounds below. Wolves moved in strong, neat patterns. “Helen’s curse was legit,” I said. “We checked.” Kye’s voice softened. “But what if something has changed? You have a mate now.” “It didn’t change anything,” I snapped, even as something in my chest caved in. “I couldn’t let her carry the curse for me. That would make me selfish.” I swallowed hard, looking away. “I didn’t deserve her. I never did.”
