The Gamma's Hybrid Mate

Chapter 3 - A Rogue?

Alex’s Point of view

It’s real? the whole f*****g thing is actually real?  I felt my jaw drop, how could this be?

Over the past 6 months my dreams had continued to get more and more out there.

The scenes weren’t much different but they were so much clearer.  They’d also started whispering things to me whilst a was dreaming. And sometimes even when I was awake!  The whole thing was freaking me out so much I thought my head was going to explode!

About a month ago I’d made the decision to see if I could find out where the horrific scenes in my brain were taking place.  They were so real I couldn’t help but wonder if it was actually going to happen. That’s how genuine it all felt to me.  When I told my newest foster family that I was thinking of going traveling, they were only too happy to let me go.  They even gave me some money to fund the trip.  I'd made the rest myself bussing tables.

I’d started getting flashes of road names, bus routes and the words that went with these dreams. “Follow me”.  It was as terrifying as it was enlightening.  It had taken me a month, but finally here I was.  

When the guy in front of me, who was even better looking than the security guy, said he only had one kid I was extatic.  It wasn’t real, there were always twins in my dreams.  So one child no problem.  But then my good mood had come crashing down around me.  His brother had twins!! 

I started to feel incredibly unwell.  This was definitely the right place according to ‘the voice’ so whatever was going to happen, and I still wasn’t 100% I could tell the future, would happen here.

I realised that hot guy was stood staring at me,  waiting for me to say something else.. but what could I say? You and your family are in danger of being eaten by Werewolves, or maybe vampires?  so a voice in my head has told me to come here to try and help?  Yeah probably not going to go down well with Mr pantie dropping fantastic here.

“What do you mean, it’s real?” The guy in front of me was becoming impatient.  I could see the muscle in his jaw working over time and his hands were clenched into fists.  I really didn’t want to make him angry, he looked very scary.

“Well?” He barked when I still didn’t answer.

I broke out into a cold sweat!  I’d not actually thought much about what I’d do when I finally got here.  I guess I just thought maybe he’d be expecting me.  What a moron!!  I started to laugh at myself.  This whole thing was taking over my life and, with the total the lack of sleep I was having, I think I’d started to become paranoid and delusional.  Maybe I needed to see a Doctor again. My laughing got louder and higher the more I pondered my own sanity.  I didn't sound much like myself, I was cackling like some sort of demented Witch!

The guy in front of me took an enormous step back from me, his top lip curled over his teeth.  He started to look at me with disgust.  But I also saw fear in his amazing blue eyes.

“Alright little girl, play time is over” he said in a cold voice “Elliot, I think this, individual,” the way he said that word sounded like he despised me and I had no idea why. “may have gotten herself lost, please escort her away from the territory and back to the main road.”

Territory? That got my attention.

“Why'd you call this place territory, what do you do here?”  I asked

“Jeez, what is this 20 random questions?” He spat at me “Once again sweetheart it’s none of your business.  Now piss off will you!”

He turned his back towards me and headed off back the way he came.  Elliot was looking at me rather warily as he approached me.

An almighty roar stopped all three of us in our tracks.  

“What the f**k was that” I screamed at them in terror.

“It’s a rogue” Elliot said looking a little panicked, "and it sounds pretty close Alpha!"

“A rogue what?” I said in a voice that sounded like I was about to wet myself in fear.

“A bear?” Hot man replied.  Although it sounded like he was asking more than telling me.  I was pretty sure he was just as concerned as I was but he started staring off into space.  What the hell did he think he was playing at? 

“Then we probably don’t have time for daydreaming.  Shift your arse!!”

He refocused and looked down at me “You’ll need to come back with me.”  He said unhappily and grabbed my wrist.  I tried to protest but he started pulling me along the gravel path.  

“Come on we need to hurry!”  

“But what about the security guy? He’ll get eaten”

Hot guy actually laughed at me.  “It’s NOT funny”

“Listen Darling, Elliot is trained in the hunting of bears, plus he’s got some mates that are going to join him.  Everything is going to be fine.  Now, take your own advice and move your arse!”
