The Alpha King's Tribrid Mate novel Chapter 26

Nicolette's POV

The weight of his knee caused the bed to give in as he cautiously climbed into my bed. My breath hitched as his hand crept onto my waist.

The tingling sensation made my wolf beam. I could hear his heart racing as he continued when I didn't stop him.

"I can go back if you're uncomfortable," he said to me. I thought about my answer and threw my blanket over his body and moved towards his warmth.

My demon always dominated my wolf when it comes to body temperature. It is always a pain to be so cold during the winters. His body radiated heat which kept me from shivering.

His scent filled my senses as my face presses against his body. His hand was tightly wrapped around waist and slightly held me against him. I felt comfortable in this position. I felt safe. I let out a breath as I let myself fall asleep again.

"Again," she said. I groan as the candle in front of me had burned into a mush of wax again. I peeled it off of the grass and threw it into the pile of melted candles.

My mother grabbed another one from a pile she has and put it in front of me. I let out a grown as I fall on to my back in the grass. Blood had started to come out of my mouth as I over used my powers.

"Why do I have to master elemental magic? I'm not an elemental witch and it's causing me to bleed," I said sitting up and looking up at her. She crosses her arms and puts her weight onto her right foot.

"Nicolette what witch are you? Use this as an advantage. Let's say you're trapped and people thing you are a normal witch then you use elemental magic. Elemental witches are becoming scarce it will catch your enemies off guard," she lectured me.

"And if I pass out? Then it's no use. I've passed out 3 times today. I can feel it draining my energy every time I melt another candle till it's useless," I contradict. Her face read that she was unimpressed.

"We master fire then air then water then earth until you won't be able to pass out. You will learn to control how much energy you use," she said pointing at the candle.

The warm embrace around me was still there when I had woken up from sleep. There was no sunlight peaking through the windows. I could hear Malcom's snoring which told me he was sleeping.

She died before I could even master the control of fire. I know how to use my elemental magic it just comes out in burst. No control it just happens.

I took a deep breath of his scent and lean against his sturdy chest. My head moved up and down as he breathed. He stared to move and I held my breath. He grunted as he moved deeper into the pillow and held me closer against his body. His snores stopped and his breathing became lighter and more controlled.

"Are you hungry?" He says. I look at him and his brown eyes seemed to pierce through the darkness. I shake my head and put my head back down and sigh. "I think you should eat since you magic drained your powers."

"I'm too comfortable to get up right now," I mumble into his chest. Malcom shifted a little which caused the covers to be pulled off of my body slightly. A chill went down my spine as the cold was let under the blanket.
