“Jump?” Derek asked me, and I nodded.

“I can control air, remember?” I told him.

“It doesn’t mean you won’t die if you hit the ground.” He told me, rolling his eyes.

“I didn’t before.” I told him with a smirk.

“But Mason, since we are waiting, you can always collect.” I told him, playing with my bottom lip with my teeth. Just then, the man came back.

“It’s all clear, my queen.” He called out, and Mason groaned.

“You are so mean. And you will pay.” Mason growled in my ear, making my panties wet.

“You can spank me later. Come on.” I told him, opening a portal to the library. As soon as the portal closed, Mason pinned me up against a wall.

“You are such a tease, baby.” His voice was husky, and I was so turned on.

“Not that I’m not enjoying this, but this building could collapse,” Derek said, while Mason held my stare.

“You don’t want me falling through the floor again,” I told him.

“Fine, but as soon as we get home, that ass is red.” He growled.

“Is that before or after you fuck my mouth?” I whispered, licking up his neck. I kissed his cheek before I moved past him.

“Fuck, baby.” Mason groaned. Derek was smirking at me.

“Don’t you worry, I’ll be getting you as well.” I told him. I opened the door and if I hadn’t been paying attention, I would have fallen down the hole again.

“This is where you fell?” Derek asked behind me, and I nodded.

“Yep.” I said, popping the p. I took my backpack off and pulled out a flashlight. Without Tundra, it was harder to see in the dark.

I repositioned the backpack before turning the flashlight on. It looked never ending as I stared down into the black hole.

“Are you sure it’s only three stories?” I asked Mason.

“That’s what Liam told me. And I jumped it after you left yesterday.” Mason answered.

“Okay, I can do this.” I said, more to myself.

“Babygirl, I can jump with you.” Derek said, but before I could answer him, I jumped.

The ground came a lot faster than I expected. I hit the ground, dust and dirt went flying around me.

“Baby, what the hell?” Mason panted out after he landed beside me. Derek landed on the other side of me.

“I’m fine. You both okay?” I asked them.

“Besides the heart attack you gave me, I’m fine.” Mason answered.

“Oh, I’m sure you’re okay, big guy.” I told him, turning to look at him.

“How about no more jumping off of things?” He said, and I shrugged.

“But where’s the fun in that?” I asked him and he sighed.

“Babygirl, please?” Derek said.

“Fine. You both are impossible.” I told them, walking around the room we landed in.

Shining the flashlight around the room, there were carvings in the stone walls. I walked over to one side of the room. I ran my hand over the images. The entire room lit up, starting from where my hand touched the wall.

The room was breathtaking as I looked around the brightly lit walls. The wall depicted images of the Great War. You could see that the hybrids were not as out numbered as I thought. Walking around the room, I saw a picture of a massive white dragon. They were in battle with a woman.

“Derek, has there ever been a white dragon?” I asked him. Both of them were walking around the room.

“Only in legend. It’s said that white dragons were water and ice. Now the stories are just told to scare kids, to keep them from lakes and rivers.” Derek explained.

“So, white dragons must have been hybrids,” I said out loud.

“Baby, what are you thinking?” Mason asked me, stepping up beside me.

“Look at the numbers. They did not outnumber hybrids. And if they had half the power that I have, then they would have won. Why did they run? And who is this dragon and why are they in battle with this woman?” I explained.

“The dragon is beautiful. They say a white dragon shimmers like a white opal. And they are supposed to be more powerful than our dragon’s breath.” Derek said, stepping to the other side of me.

“Have there only been dragons with dragon’s breath?” I asked him.

“That’s all I’ve even seen. Everything else is just legends. Nothing proven.” Derek answered.

We stood there, staring at the walls, trying to make sense of everything we were seeing. I wasn’t the first hybrid. There were more of us. They ran after the war. Where did they go? My mind was racing until a familiar voice called out.

“This way, Ashlyn.” My magic lit up a hallway I never noticed before.

“I think I need to go this way.” I told them, walking towards the hallway.

“Baby, this could be a trap.” Mason said, grabbing my arm.

“I’m a hybrid. Whoever is looking for me doesn’t want to hurt me.” I told him, looking at him. I could feel his worry through the bond.

“We can’t lose you again.” He whispered, pulling me into his arms.

“If I don’t do this, it’s not just me you’ll have to worry about. I need to protect James and all our future babies. This is bigger than us. And as much as I would love to be selfish and walk away. I could never live with myself.” I told him, wrapping my arms around his neck. Derek came up behind me, wrapping his arms around me. He rested his head on my shoulder.

“Damn, backpack.” He grumbled, making me giggle.

“I love you both with everything I have, but I need to do this,” I told them.

“I trust you, babygirl.” Derek mumbled, kissing my cheek. I was staring into Mason’s eyes, pleading with him to understand.

“Lead the way, baby.” Mason finally said. I stood up on my tippy toes so I could kiss him.

“Thank you.” I breathed out.

I turned to face the hallway, feeling nervous that I was actually doing this. Taking a deep breath, I walked towards the hallway. Stepping through the doorway, I noticed the hallway opened to a valley. How did we get back outside?

“Baby?” Mason called out. I turned around to see that they couldn’t step down the hallway.

“Babygirl, something is blocking us,” Derek called out. I walked back over to them, raising my hands. I could feel the magic protecting this place.

“I think it’s because neither of you are hybrids. I think this is a sanctuary,” I told them.

“Baby, I don’t like this. We can’t get to you.” Mason said, frustrated.

“I’ll be quick. Just give me 10 minutes.” I told them.

“And then what? How can we come get you?” Mason yelled out.

“I promise I’ll be back. I love you both.” I told them, moving away from them. As I entered the unknown, I took off down the hallway, hoping I had made the right decision.

More Hybrids

Ashlyn

Exiting the hallway, I stopped in my tracks. This place was a valley, surrounded by never ending mountains. What is this place? I wondered as I looked around. Everything looked like it was dying. The trees were all brown with the needles falling off. The grass was yellow and crunching under my feet as I walked. I shivered, my body temperature dropped.

Shit, I have to hurry. I only have ten minutes to figure out what this place is and get back to my mates. I promised them and I can’t break that promise. Rushing around, I tried to take in as much as I could before I had to head back.

I came upon a lake, with a broken dock leading out to the middle. There seemed to be a young child sitting at the end of the dock, with their feet splashing in the water. I made my way down the dock, slowly, trying not to fall through the broken and cracked boards. When I got closer, I noticed the child was a girl about ten in age.

“Are you here to kill me?” She asked, not turning to look at me.

“Why would you think that?” I asked her, moving closer to her. She had dirty blonde hair and her clothes had seen better days. She must have been cold with what she was wearing.

“My mom said that someone was going to be coming to either help us or kill us. I just assumed kill.” She shrugged.

“Do you mind if I come and sit with you?” I asked her and she moved over for me to sit beside her. Taking off my backpack, I sat down beside her, crossing my legs so I wouldn’t get my boots wet.

“My name’s Ashlyn. Are you hungry?” I asked her.

“I’m Gabby. And I am, but I shouldn’t take anything from you. I have nothing to give,” She answered. My heart broke for her as I watched her looking at the water. I dug through my backpack until I found the granola bars I packed. I pulled two out and handed one of them to Gabby.

“It’s my treat.” I told her. She looked at me and then at the bar. She hesitated, but finally took the bar.

Gabby ripped the package open and took a bite before inhaling the rest of the bar. I could tell that she had eaten much in the last bit. She was sickly skinny.

“Thank you.” She said, handing back the empty wrapper. I handed her the other one I had pulled out.

“I can’t take that. You need to eat.” She said, shaking her head.
