What Is Happening Here?

Jasmine POV

"Could it be???", I thought to myself.. We have waited for a Tribrid for centuries. Many centuries ago, an Elf Oracle prophesized that Tribird will help bring the balance to our species and to the world. Her prophecy was confusing. She spoke of the balance – of the Three and initially we were confused thinking she was talking about First Dragon, Thalia and Lord Alwyin. To this day the prophecy was not clear – if it was three people, or Triibrid itself. However, what I was sure of, is that there was a very strong possibility that Dragana was one. I needed Samuel to look into this. He was the head of the Slavic coven now, he will know how to help. This was extremely sensitive, but if true I thought wistfully….we had lost all hope.. and now, the hope was possible again. All because Dzana found her mate. I always knew her child will be special, I could sense it and have foreseen it– however, even I was cautious about the possibility. We initially assumed her child will either be a witch or werew
olf or perhaps a hybrid of both. Never in the million years did I think that the Lycan side too will be included into fold. However, with Dragana, I could clearly sense her Lycan self. Calypso knew too – she was the one who alerted me first. Even her scent was trifold Yet, something was not adding up. She said she had denounced her werewolf side, which only meant that her werewolf had already come forth. But she never shifted to my knowledge. “We do not know much about her father” Calypso reminded me. This was true. Dzana was very scared that the Coven will reject them, reject her union with were, and reject or murder her child. Some of the covens were only focused on pure bloods and did not approve of mixing with other beings. Some went further and murdered their own who would mate outside the witch blood. Some of the Lycans were like that too – that bitch calling herself a Lycan Queen, Rowena, was the worst! Her desire to obliterate all mixed beings was something scary, very primal and raw, bordering on obsession. I swear the only good thing that ever came from her was Cassius. And then of course, there was my dear brother, Khor, or as he was now known, a Dark Lord Khor.

I knew he was coming for her. After all, Dragana was his granddaughter, but I suspected that he too was more focused on prophecy then anything else. His timing was curious to say the least. Our world was under some type of attack – things have shifted and I could sense the change. I knew that even Frist Dragon’s forces were attacked. We all knew something different was happening. Khor had to have sensed it too. An extremely powerful witch and lethal Lycan, his strength was legendary and I knew he used dark magic too. I am not sure if he knew that Dragana was with Alpha King all this time, but those two dead wolves in the morgue told me that he now did.

I thought back to our family, my real blood family, when there was seven of us and our parents. Centuries have passed, but the pain of losing them was still fresh somehow. As was my connection to Khor – no matter how far away we were, no matter what he did – we never severed our bond. Khor has been on a mission of revenge all his life– an extremely ruthless and merciless creature, what would he want with her? And why now? “He senses what we sense”, Calyposo was retorting. “His Lycan Ganar has been reaching out to me, trying to see what we knew” she said. Ganar was the only creature of same strength as Calypso – and he was as blood lusty as she.

Truth be told, I was doing Roman a favor – Dragana would be much safer with us. Had Khor found her here, he would kill Roman and burn his pack to the ground, and take Dragana with him. I was still in time I thought thanking the Goddess for the fact that I got here first.

Caught in my thoughts I kept thinking of Roman’s strange situation, his reaction and obvious attraction and possessiveness over Dragana. He should have been able to let her go; he found his mate after all. However, that too bothered me.  Why did she run? Even if his mate sensed the scent of others on him, she would have still come to him – mate bond is undeniable, she would not be able to resist the pull. She would want to rip his head off for cheating on her, but she would not run away. Unless..

Thoughts were running all over my mind. I could sense the energetic shield Dzana placed on Alpha King, I was however unsure of its purpose. Next thing I knew, I sensed Dragana’s fear and heard her scream, even though I was on the other side of the pack house – suites and rooms reserved for guests. I ran quickly to her room only to smell Roman inside. What was he doing here, NOW???? “Stay with me tonight”, I heard her say to him and while I was debating if I should interrupt, I heard him purr and lull her into sleep. I opened door gently, trying not to wake her, wanting to ask him to leave. However, they were both asleep – still dressed but asleep soundly in each other’s arms. What is happening here???!!!!!
