The Hybrid Prophecy

Chapter Sixteen

(Ruby’s point of view, 22 years ago)

   ‘Mate should me here any minute, I can smell him’ Rana mind links me while jumping around my head, I am just as excited as her but I wish that she would calm down a bit. She is giving me a headache,

   “when should you mate be here?” my mother asks me, she is just as excited as I am for my mate to turn up. I kept looking out of the window waiting for his car to pull up, I have not spoken to my mate scene the day of the royal’s couples wedding. I hear a car and I quickly look out of the widow but the car does not stop, where is he? I want my mate to come, I look down at the floor trying to hold back my tear. I do not even know why I am almost crying, he said he will be here and he will, the sound of someone knocking at the door makes me look up. Before I could get up my dad opened the front door,

   “hello, can I help you?” my father asks the person at the door, I tried to look out of the window to get a glimpse at the person at the door but I could not see them.

   “Hello sir, I am Henry Duquette, I am you daughter’s mate” I hear Henry say and I ran for the door. Before my dad could say anything or stop me I ran into Henry’s arms, I buried my head into his chest and took I deep breath it, oh how I missed his scent. Henry hugged me back and put his nose into my hair and took a deep breath it. I did not want to let go of him but I heard my father clear his throat, when I heard it, I pulled away from my mate and stood at the side of him. I tried to hide my blush from my parents and my mate,

   “nice to meet you Henry, I am Judy Ruby’s mother” my mother said while pulling out of my arms and into a hug, Henry let out a light chuckle.

   “Nice to meet you Judy” Henry said as he hugged my mother back,

   “I am John Ruby’s father” my father said in a serious tone as he held his hand out. Henry stook my father’s hand, I could see that my dad was squeezing Henry’s hand a little too hard but Henry did not show any sign of being in pain. I was so happy that my mate and my parents are getting along, I could not ask for more.

   “I am going to show Henry his room” I said while grabbing Henry’s hand and heading towards the door,

   “no marking while your father and I are in the house” my mother called with a laugh and I practically ran up the stair away from my parents. I quickly opened the door to Henry’s knew room and pushed him in and closed and locked the door behind us. Henry turned and faced me but before he could say or do anything I jump at him wrapping my arms around his neck and slamming my lips to his. At first I was the only one kissing but then Henry join started to join in, the kiss started to get more heated as I feel his hands travel over my body. A shiver runs through me as he runs his fingers down the centre of my back, while still kissing me he moves his lips from mine and leaves a trail of kissing to my neck. Henry kissing me where his mark will rest and small moan of pleasure leaves my mouth, my legs shake at the idea that he is going to mark me, Rana was howling in my head at the idea of her mate marking us and letting the world know that we are his. I hear Henry growl as his wolf starts to take over, it seems that his wolfs wants to mark me just as much as I want him to mark me. Before he could mark though Henry pushes me away,

   “I am sorry Ruby but I cannot mark you, not right now at less” he says while turning away from me. I started to feel upset but as the tears started to fall, I started to get angry,

   “No I am your mate, you should want to mark me, why do you not want to mark me?” I demand while pushing Henry so he turns and looks at me. At first he does not turn so I push him again but he refuses to look at me. I start to hit him because he was making me so mad,

   “why do you not want to mark me?” I shout at him as I hit him with my fist on the head, this made him turn to me finally.

   “because you are not the mate I was meant to have” he shouts with so much anger in his voice, I could not believe what I was hearing, how could my own mate say that?

   “Fine then if I am not the mate you I Ruby and my wolf Rana reject you Henry and your wolf” I shout at him. As soon as the words leave my mouth I struggle to stand but I do not show it, I watch as Henry falls to the floor from the pain but I do not let anything show on my face. I hear my mother and father running up the stairs and into the room,

   “Ruby what happened?” my mother asks running over to check me first but when she sees Henry on the floor holding his chest she runs to see if he is hurt.

   “Do not bother helping him mum” I say with no emotion in my voice, my mother looks at me confused.

   “Ruby your mate is in pain you have to help him” my father says to me but I just laugh at what he says.

   “You will not think that when I tell you what he just said and that I am the reason that he is in pain” I say while laughing at my father, both my mother and father look at me like I have lost my mind.

   “Stop laughing and explain what you mean” my father shouts at me making me stop laughing,

   “ok father, that s**t my so-called mate just said that I am not the mate that he should have, so I sorted that problem and rejected the fucker” I shout at them with tears rolling down my face. Once my father heard what I had to say he started to beat the s**t, my mother runs to me and pulls me in for a hug. The last time I see is my father dragging Henry out of the room,

   “do not worry baby girl, your father is taking your ex-mate to the alpha, he will be punished for hurting you” my mother says as she kisses my head repeatedly, still set me off and I cried all the tears I was trying to hold back. All I could think as how I thought I had found the love of my life but now I no it was the devil in disguise.

   ‘how could mate do this to us? He is meant to love us’ Rana whimpered at me through our mind link, I could feel her pain as well as my own.

   ‘Do not worry Rana, you have me and we will choose our mate now and live a happy life’ I mind link her and I feel her smile back at me, I do not need him, I will have a happy life without that piece of s**t.
