The Hybrid's Second Chance

Fu.cked up my life

Chapter 3

Tywin’s pov

Star was the most beautiful woman I had ever laid eyes on, and I was so happy when we completed our bond and she moved to my home. She was well brought up, classy, smart, and strong. Everything you could want from a future lady of the kingdom. She was also close to the royal family, which was another plus, as I knew that I could rely on her royal connections when I took over from my parents to help me get preferential treatment.

I am a very jealous man, so I hated the way other men looked at her, she was quite stunning, and I also felt inadequate because I knew that she was more powerful than I was as I only had the earth element, and it didn’t help that even my parents would go on about how perfect she was which didn't help any. I felt like they were more proud of her as their child than they were of me.

I knew it was a bit irrational to get her to hide the fact she had two powers and to criticise her clothes when she always dressed respectability, but it was like I couldn’t help myself. I knew it was wrong, but the words always left my mouth before I could stop them. I was sick of the way everyone paid more attention to her than they did me, I mean, I loved how jealous they were, but I knew they were thinking how did he get a mate like her.

So when her sister Joy turned up at my work claiming that she was cheating on me, a part of me believed that she was not as perfect as she seemed and that she deserved the way I had insulted her during our time together.

I couldn’t understand why her sister would lie about something like that, even if they weren’t close. They are part wolf, so they are usually fiercely loyal and protective about family.

I felt like sh.it the first time I hit her, I could see she wanted to rip me apart, but her wolf loved me too much to let her. I absolved myself of my guilt by thinking she deserved everything I threw at her for being disloyal to me.

I did question Joy about the whole betrayal pain, but she explained that she didn’t get a wolf, so she never felt it either when her mate betrayed the bond before he rejected her. It made sense that only those with a beast could feel it, and I didn’t think to question it at all, and to be totally honest, I never paid as much attention in class as I should have.

Joy tried flirting with me almost as soon as she told me about what her sister was up to behind my back, but I didn’t go there. At first, that is.

I didn’t want to be as bad as her. But after being told over and over again that Joy had seen her getting intimate with that Clark, I started to want to get my own back on her and make her feel the pain that I was.

I finally succumbed to her advances, and when Star confronted me about cheating on the bond, I lost it and hit her again. I was feeling so guilty about it that I needed to blame her for us finding ourselves here with our relationship in tatters. She was the first one to betray us, and this was just revenge, and I was damned if she would make me out to be the guilty party.

I didn’t even find Joy that attractive. To be honest, she wasn’t a patch on her sister, and the s*x wasn’t nearly as good. Joy wasn’t as tight as Star, and there was no tingling from the bond either, so I was left unsatisfied by the whole experience. Now I had already done it. There was no point in stopping now, and I did get a sick pleasure knowing Star couldn’t enjoy cheating on me when she was in pain. I was glad as well that I didn’t have to pay for her mistakes and was saved from the betrayal pains with not being a shifter.

When she came to me last night and said that she was pregnant with my child, I lost it completely. The pain of what she had done hit me hard. I already knew it must be the bas.tard of that a.sshole Clark, and I completely lost the plot, being even more viscous than normal towards her. Star finally fought back, I guess Sapphire had had enough and didn’t care if I got hurt as long as her bas.tard pup was protected, which stung that she cared more about this bas.tard child than about her own mate.

I felt like sh.it, it was bad enough that she was screwing her so-called friend, but to get pregnant to him broke me completely. So I found myself letting Joy into our home the next day as I was in desperate need of comfort. I told her what had happened, and she said I needed to renounce the child when I rejected her so she couldn't make me responsible for a child who was not mine.

I still didn’t want to lose Star, but I was not sure that there was any way forward now. She knew I wanted kids, and she gave that right to someone else. I would not be bringing up someone else’s child, so she better hope for her sake that the a.sshole will stick by her or she is going to find herself as a single mother.

I had never slept with Joy in our home before. No matter how upset I was at Star, I still tried to respect our home together. Now that last piece of hope was gone. I didn’t see the point in not screwing Joy on our living room sofa, almost hoping that she would catch us and feel the pain I am feeling.

When she stormed in and soaked us with her water element, I was surprised to see how smug Joy looked as she slowly covered herself with a throw. I could tell that Sapphire was itching to get out and kill us both as her eyes turned black.

When she rejected me I had decided that I wasn’t going to fight for her, she just wasn’t worth it, so following Joy’s advice, I made sure that the bas.tard had no links with me when the bond was severed. What happened next shocked me to the core.

It couldn’t be true, Joy wouldn’t have lied to me, there is no way her friend is gay, and that I wasn’t feeling her cheating because she hadn’t done it. I had treated her like hell these past months, and I wouldn't have wished my actions towards my worst enemy. I mean, I had by no means been perfect before, but lately, I had treated her horrendously.

I tried to chase her when I got back to myself and threw on some boxers, but she was already driving away, and she wasn’t going to stop and talk to me now. I was furious when I went back to the house, and Joy was still sitting there wrapped in nothing but a throw.

I was ready to attack her for ruining my relationship when she shouted “I’m pregnant with your child” that shocked me to the core, and I stopped. I had already hit one pregnant woman, and I wasn’t going to be stupid enough to do it again and risk what is possibly my child. I have already lost one, and if this bi.tch is pregnant, I definitely have no chance of getting my mate and child back.

“Stay the hell away from me from now on. Once you are far enough along, we will get a dna test, and then, if it is mine, then I will support it. I don’t particularly believe you right now after the number of lies you have told. What the hell Joy, what could she have possibly done to deserve you treating her like this. I wonder what your mother and father will think when they find out about this. You have destroyed your own family. Get out before I do something we both will regret” I shout coldly at her.

She tries to whine and beg to stay and promises to be a better mate to me than her sister. She finally throws on some clothes if you can call them that when she realises that I will happily throw her out in just the throw she has draped over her. The neighbours have had enough of a show as it it.

My parents are going to kill me they love Star, and the last thing I needed was to lose my mate in a scandal when I am a future lord. When the other Lords hear of this, they will have a field day. Those pri.cks always looked down their noses at me and felt like I wasn’t good enough for her, and I have managed to prove them right

The only thing that is making me feel slightly better about this is by blaming Joy for the destruction of my bond. But even I know I should have trusted my mate and spoken to her before believing any sh.it someone else said about her.

I shower and change, wanting that sl.uts smell off of me. A wolves sense of smell is much more powerful than ours, and the last thing I want is her to smell her sister on me when I try to win her back. I get showered and dressed much quicker than I ever have and run around to her friends house.

I am still kind of hoping that she lied about him being gay so I can still justify my actions, but the cold dread that I am feeling right now is saying I have fu.cked up my life beyond repair. The second Clark opens the door and sees me, he knocks me on my a.ss.

“Babe who’s at the door” I hear a male shout out as he walks closer. “Oh is this Stars sh.itty mate? Good hit, I could freeze the a.sshole or even better castrate him” the guy says, and I can tell he is a wizard. He could easily cause me harm with just a few muttered words and by the looks of things he really wants to. I almost want him to after I spot their matching marks and know for definite that Joy lied about everything.

“Please just let me speak to her and try and explain. Joy tricked me” I say, losing all of my pride and begging.

“You can’t she has gone, and no, I don’t know where she is. She just told me what had happened and that she would be leaving here for good. Do her and yourself a favour and leave her the hell alone” he says, full of rage.

“I can’t, I love her” I say pitifully.

“What you feel is not love or you wouldn’t have destroyed my friend, the kindest, most loving person I know. You make me sick. If you show up at my door again, I will give Perseus free reign on your a.ss” he says before slamming the door in my face.

I go home and call my mum, I know it won’t be long before the gossip gets to her, an ever so friendly and helpful citizen who wants to earn brownie points by keeping her informed of my fu.ck up. The conversation didn’t go well, to say the least.

She berated me for my treatment of the one person I was supposed to protect with my life. Then she went on to lecture me about how stupid I am and how I don’t even understand the basics about mates, and even a 10 year old knows about betrayal of the bond.

She almost went apoplectic when she found out it was Joy who was involved, she never liked my mates sister. She was always happy I got the good one and not the harpy as she put it. When she found out that not only was Star pregnant and I had given away my rights, but, Joy, was also pregnant, and it could very well be mine.

She told me she wants nothing to do with me, and it would be a miracle if my father still passes down the lordship to me or if the royals would allow it given their close relationship with Star. The Queen of the fae Starla is her godmother, and she is even named after her.

She also told me if I wanted to ever have them in my life I would for once do the right thing and mark Joy if she is indeed carrying my child as the pup shouldn’t have to suffer for our mistakes and she would be damned if she loses another grandchild because of me. My life is fu.cked and I may end up stuck with the bi.tch who helped it implode on me.
