Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1 Herbs

I work at a local coffee shop that we sell herbal coffee that the towns folk love and every weekend I take a walk into the woods in search of some new herbs. As I walk by a cluster of flowers and a butterfly flies across my path toward a nice patch of green flower herbs that some people get confused to think they are weeds. I bend over to pick some off the ground from the roots and I tuck them into my bag. If I steam these in a nice cup of coffee it can heal fevers and alleviate pain in some cases.

I hear a bell from the town and realize I haven't opened the shop and I hurry over the river and make it across to my shop just in time. Our shop also has healing potions and plenty of passerby tend to stop by for their medical supplies.

I see Emekino who stops by our shop occasionally to buy medicine for her arthritis. I turn and smile warmly at her as she drinks some herbal coffee.

"You know I come here to watch you work- your herbal coffee and herbal remedies are amazing and cure almost any ailments" she commented as I put the new herbal grass into a new jar

"Well since your here I might as well make you some new herbal tea now to sooth your arthritis" I take out a brown tea bag from a cabinet and poor hot water inside a mug before letting the small packet float inside the mug and mix it with a teaspoon.

"The way you move in the kitchen is so graceful and your body is beautiful- my you, your grandparents would be thrilled to see you working now in the family kitchen---" she gets up wobbly and leaves the shop as I finish making the tea and I can't stop her so I leave the tea in the fridge. I notice a shadow looking over my table as I set another cup in front of a customer. The shadow follows me until I get behind the counter. I turn to greet the person but my breath hitches and I stare at the three guys standing there. One guy has blue hair that covers his right eye and he's dressed in a white suit with a cross down the front. The second guy has white hair cropped on top and shaved in the back like the army soldiers have in our country and he's wearing a black suit with a white bow tie. The last guy has an eye patch and one blue eye, black hair, and a black suit. I notice they all have business suits that should not be from around here. The guy with the blue hair smirks at me "You work here?"

I nod

He points at the menu on the wall behind him "That menu Is not that long"

I turn and I do feel like the menu only has little on it with the best order being our chicken rings and buffalo chicken wings order with french fries.

The guy with white hair is silent while the black haired guy sighs dramatically "Are we done yet because we got a few errands to run on our way to Miresen."

The man that intimidated me smirks again "How much do they pay you for this job anyway?"

"Well it depends on how long I work, the most I get paid is $10 dollars an hour" I say

The white haired boy laughs hard "I couldn't even by my mansion with that much money" the customers start to vacate the shop as the three men laugh with him.

I tap my foot as they continue their banter and the boy with blue hair steps forward "My name is Hunter Mateo"

Then the black haired guy holds his hand out to me "And my name is Kodiak Mateo"

The white haired guy crosses his arms as he stares at our exchange and nods.

Hunter points to the white haired guy "That silent guy is---" the white haired guy cuts him off

"Noone important" he stares at me with disgust

Hunter looks at Kodiak and they smile as Hunter turns to me "Would you want to be paid triple what you get paid here?"

Triple it's basically $30 bucks an hour which catches but I have to take care of this shop for my family.

"This shop means everything to me so I can't really leave it here" I wave towards the door

"You guys aren't buying or ordering so you should just go" I say

The white haired guy scoffs "You should care for your customers with more caution"

I frown "Fine I'll take the job offer"

The black haired guy claps his hands together "Great! You can call us when your dressed and ready to go"

I look down at my shirt and leggings and see no stains

"I'm good right now if you want to take me"

The white haired guy leaves first and then Kodiak while Hunter stays beside the counter as I tidy up the sides and lay the herbs back in their proper spots along the wall.

Hunter watches and then points to a bottle labeled Miracle Herb "What does that herb do?"

I take it down and read it "Poison Remedy"

He laughs "When did you make that?"

I didn't want to say the truth because then he would be curious as to what my business is with the outside cartel that deals with herbs and medical stuff is.

"I used weeds and lilacs from the nearby forest" I step around the counter and Hunter follows me out the door

A limo waits for us near the curb where I spot Kodiak in the driver's seat and the white haired guy is in the passenger side. Hunter slides open the door for me and I slide in. As he slides next to me his thigh brushes against my hand. He turns and offers me a drink of his water bottle.

"Where are we going?" I ask them

Kodiak speaks up "We are heading to the eastern province where my company is located. This job your gonna have involves being close by to help out"

The white haired guy snickers "Close is a bit different for you to call it that, Kodiak"

Kodiak speaks with a bit of anger "If you have a better idea let me know, Asher"

Asher. What an odd name for a boy who's cold and a bit harsh.

Asher scowls "I told you not to say my name in front of a girl like that"

Hunter smirks "And that is how you ruin a albinos day"

Asher almost jumps out of his seat but Kodiak holds his arm out "Hunter don't add wood to the fire"

Hunter turns to me "How old are you, Athena?"

I didn't think he would ask that kind of question to me but I tell him anyway "I'll be 17 next week"

"So your still young, have you had sex with any guys yet?" Kodiak throws Asher a dead glare as he asks me this.

I smile at Asher "No I haven't, Mr Hot Head"

Asher glances at me and I glare at him

Hunter pats me on my back "He'll warm up to you soon just not now"

A while later we arrive at a huge white mansion with bushes up front and a large arch in the front where it leads to a bright orange brown door. Hunter opens the door and grabs my legs and I slide across the seat giggling.

He smirks "You like me or what?"

I shake my head "Not a chance, Sir"

He lifted me up from the seat and I yelped

"Put her down, Hunter. She can walk herself you don't need to be her boyfriend in front of us" Asher shoots him a glare as we approach the door.

Hunter sets me down and I feel him slap my ass "Ow!"

I hit him in the chest and he smiles as we enter the mansion and I gape. Chandeliers hang from the ceiling and there's a large staircase leading to a second floor.

Hunter takes my hand "I'll show you to your room"

I look to see Asher following behind us but Kodiak is fixing his suit up and hanging up a coat. We make it to a door with a number labeled on it.

"This is your room until further notice" Hunter opens it

There's a window that leads to a balcony and a large bed with a canopy. The room also has a bathroom and a closet that opens to a walk in. I hear the door close and Hunter stands beside me.

"Do you like it?" he asks

I nod

"Good because you'll be here for awhile" Asher says

I walk over to the closet and when I open it I notice it's already filled with dresses and one dress even has a note. I carefully take the note and read it where Hunter and Asher can't see it.

Melissa- They are not safe, they are not what they say they are. If your reading this the next note is under the bed. Hunter is a werewolf.

Hunter comes up beside me and I crumple the note and drop it. His arms rest on my shoulders and he messaged them. I moan

"Your tense, how come?" he mumbles

I arch against his hands as he rubs my shoulders harder "I really don't want you to touch me"

Hunter looks over at Asher and Asher leaves the room while mumbling

The door clicks shut and Hunters whole body vibrates and I jump back while in place of Hunter is a large brown wolf the size of two wolves put together.

"HUNTER?!" I gasp

A second later, the door bangs open and Kodiak stands there with Asher by him and they stare at Hunter. The wolf sits in front of me and sniffs my hand and I reach out. His snout rubs against my hand and I pet his fur. Kodiak sighs.

"He is a werewolf?" I ask while looking at Kodiak

"Yes he's a werewolf and I'm a vampire" Kodiak says just as the wolf becomes human and Hunter is full on naked. I cover my eyes as he puts his clothes back on and Kodiak gets closer to me. Asher closes the door and all of the guys are silent.

"Come here, Athena" Kodiak beckons me

I step over to him and Hunter slaps my ass

"Don't slap my ass, idiot!" I yell at him

Kodiak smiles

Asher keeps his arms crossed where he's seated in an armchair near the end of the bed.

Hunter grabs my hand and pulls me toward him and he pushes me on the bed. I twist and Kodiak pushes me back on the bed.

"What are you guys doing?!" I gasp as Hunter holds my arms to the side

Kodiak puts his hand under my chin "I need to take some blood from you okay?" I shake my head

"Not happening"

Hunter growls deep in his throat "You have no choice"

Kodiak frowns at me and then takes my chin and turns my head to the side.

He leans over me and his nose brushes against my neck.

His mouth opens against my neck and I feel his fangs but I twist in Hunters grip.

"Let me go!" I scream

Kodiak grabs my neck and his fangs pierce my neck. I gasp in pain and Hunter releases his grip on my hands and I moan against Kodiak. He moves on top of me and Hunter sniffs my neck as Kodiak moves over my chest. He slips my shirt off and Hunter takes my pants off.

Kodiak looks at me "Can we trust you?"

I take this moment to push at Kodiak "Let me go and then I'll trust you" I feel Hunter wrap something around my ankles and I can't move them. Ropes!

"We need a gestational carrier to have our kids" Kodiak says

They need me for babies?!

I gasp as he ropes my hands to the bedpost and I am stuck.

"We brought you home with us for a reason" He says

Hunter groans as my leggings come off and everything else.

"Let me go this instant!" I scream

Asher is in the chair staring at us and he swallows

"We need her on our good side, Kodiak" he gets up and pushes Kodiak to the wall and he throws Hunter on the floor.

Asher glides his hands up my arms and unties the ropes.

Kodiak goes to stop him but Asher growls and both the other guys stand down.

Asher mops his white hair to the side and his hands roll down my hips. I don't want to move for some reason and he rolls his pants down.

"That's not fair, Asher" mumbles Hunter

Kodiak nods from the corner but Asher lowers himself onto me

As he enters me slowly I gasp. Red spots appear in my vision and he goes deeper. He holds me by my throat and pushes past my g spot. I gasp

He groans and then freezes inside me. I can't let him finish or else....

He lets out a groan and releases his seed inside me.

"Asher" I gasp

He shifts until he's deep within me and he lets his mouth roll near my ear "Say my name again"

"Asher" I moan

Kodiak shifts in the corner "This isn't right, your not even the oldest here so your sperm won't be strong enough, Asher"

Hunter laughs "I thought he'd share but I guess we've gotta learn patience"

Asher stills inside me and I push at him "Asher let me go, please"

He smiles "One second" and he dumps more seed inside me

He leaves me and I sigh in relief "Thank God"

He turns back to me "I am not a vampire"

"So your a werewolf?" I shiver from the cold and wrap the sheets around my legs

"No, I'm both" he says

I lurch up from the bed "What does that mean?!"

Hunter walks over "He's a hybrid and he has a harder time controlling his hybrid self"

Kodiak then hands me some clothes "We will take you to our nurse. She'll check to see if you can bare our children"

"I am not getting pregnant with your babies!" I yell

Hunter laughs "Like you even have a choice"

Kodiak glares at Hunter and looks back at me "We like you, we want you, and we need a woman in our life"

Asher whispers "I'm sorry if I was a bit hard"

I kind of feel bad for these guys so maybe I should go easy on them.

"It's alright I feel fine right now but I just hope I don't get pregnant so soon because I am only 16 which is way too young"

Hunter gapes "I thought that humans mate at age 15"

I frown "Who told you that?"

Kodiak groans in frustration "Hunters just dumb, Asher doesn't know about what a Virgin is"

Asher sits down next to me and lowers his head "I'm not a bad man, I just get very greedy"

I roll until I'm sitting straight "I feel weird"

My stomach feels like it is being pinched from inside

"It's a different type of seed in a hybrids body that attaches itself to a woman's insides and grows until it's a fetus" Kodiak says

"Does that mean I'm gonna be pregnant?!" I cry

"Yes" Hunter smirks and this time he crawl on top of me

"No, let me go you ass holes!" I struggle as he pushes me down on the bed and pushes the blankets off of me

I feel him push against me and enter me and it's alot more painful than when Asher did it and I scream loudly

"Hold her arms down, Kodiak" Hunter says as he pushes deeper inside me

Kodiak pushes my arms down and Asher holds my legs apart as Hunter pulses inside of me.

After what seems like 5 minutes he leaves me and Kodiak switches spots with Hunter

"Kodiak don't do this please" I plead

He sighs "We have no other choice but to do this"

Asher rubs my legs and I shiver as Kodiak parts my sore thighs and enters me but compared to the other guys he's a lot gentler. He pushes in and then out and does this for awhile before I feel pain envelope my lower body and he pinches my sides. Warmth rolls down me in waves and he caresses my shoulders and then he slams back into me and I scream.

He pushes in and out and then he slides a different direction inside me and something snaps inside me and I gasp. Kodiak grunts and leaves me there panting as the pain overwhelms me and I pass out.
