Chapter 41- Ari
Waking the following morning, I find the bed empty. I roll out of bed and still enjoy the slight ache between my legs. Damn, I love it when he fucks me rough like that. I like some gentle, sweet, and romantic, but fuck do I like it rough and dirty. Searching the small cabin, I don’t see Zane. My guess is he is either off on coven business or getting something. Shrugging my shoulders, I decide to shower. I’m okay with him not being around at the moment. I want some time to process the whirlwind of emotions that are swirling around inside of me.The warm water washes away the grime from the mission. I clean my face and body before I scrub the hair products out of my hair. I let the warm water soothe me as I try to slowly process last night. My showdown with Sage didn’t go great, although telling her off and calling her out on her bullshit did feel pretty damn good. Still, it hurt to know I

Chapter 42-Ari
That’s a lot to digest. I’m immortal, but that doesn't mean I’m invincible. I'm still not sure how I feel about living forever or for a long time. I guess it can’t be too horrible. I’ll get to see my kids and grandkids grow up, maybe even my great-grandkids if we want. Then there’s Zane being able to let me talk to my dead parents. Yeah, that’s not something I’m ready for, but maybe one day it would be nice. I never thought much about closure with them, thinking it would never be a thing with them being dead. I just accepted that sometimes we don't get the proper closure we need. The heir thing doesn’t bother me. I do want kids at some point. I like the idea of being a mom, and Zane would be a good dad. He would be protective, maybe overprotective. Still, the thought of Zane holding our baby, loving me while I’m pregnant, and us raising our

Chapter 43- Ari
Waking, I find strong arms wrapped around me. My back is to Zane’s Chest. I wonder if he is cold because he’s the son of Death or because he died? He’s not ice cold but cool. I like it as I’m generally on the warmer side. I’ll want his cold body against mine when I’m pregnant. I can only imagine the hot flashes I will have to endure. Why is pregnancy on my mind so much lately? How did I go from barely thinking about it to it constantly popping in my head? “Pet, I can feel your mind swarming. It’s far too early for that.” Zane groans, annoyed that I woke him from his precious sleep. “Hey, don’t whine at me about it being too early. You are the one who kept us up late after the movie with two rounds of sex with lots of foreplay in between.” I say, smacking his arms so I can get up

Chapter 44- Ari
Mags moves stuff off a round wooden table tossing the things on the table into the clutter of the rest of the house. Zane sighs, annoyed, and I see Zane roll his eyes for the first time ever. Oh, the next time he tells me not to roll my eyes, I will remind him of this moment. Zane glares at me, meaning he read my mind and didn’t like my smartass comment. Zane waves his hands, causing the shadows to clean the table off, and sets three matching wooden chairs around the table that I didn’t even know were there. In fairness, they probably were there, but the clutter hid them. Zane sits in one of the chairs. Mags raises an eyebrow at him. “What? If we waited for you, it would be a century before you were done.” Zane comments, crossing his arms across his chest as he leans back into the chair. Zane pissy is definitely not fun. I thought I had bad moods, but no, Zane wins this one.&n

Chapter 45- Zane
My mind is blank at first. Then I come to a scene of a little blonde girl in a simple cream colored dress. She must be about ten or so. This must be Sasha. It’s strange to be in someone else’s memories as an observer. It’s like watching a movie while watching it be filmed. It’s strange, and I’m not sure I can compare it to anything else. It must be even weirder for Ari.  I watch little Sasha go to an altar in her village, where she places offerings to the Five. She prays to them, asking for her village to be protected, for her family to be healthy, and for the happiness of her village. It’s pure, sweet, and innocent. The scene shifts to an older Sasha who is in a clearing. To the right is her village. To the left, it’s a crazy wild forest with dangerous looking mountains.  Sasha places white candles in a circle in the center of the clearing. She pra

Chapter 46- Zane
Everything goes black again before I feel myself wake from the spell. Fuck, that was crazy to watch. I look over at Ari, who slowly sits up. “Are you okay, Pet?” I know she’s not, but I have to ask. Ari shakes her head. “That was hard. Her death was so painful. She was blessed and then cursed. What a mess,” She sighs deeply. She looks into my eyes. “I’m the savior. How the hell am I supposed to unite lycans and werewolves? Does that mean there are more lycans than everyone thinks? How does Sage fit into this mess?” “It will be alright. We will start looking into Sasha’s descendants. Maybe Sage and you fit into the puzzle that way? Fate likes to do shit like that, so it wouldn't surprise me. Even if that’s not it, we will figure it out. My guess is there are more lycans. I just don&rsq

Chapter 47- Ari
We’ve been back in the coven’s realm for about a week now. It was easier to get back into the swing of things here than I thought it would be. I had come to miss the creepy realm. It still weirds me out, but it’s home. I’m safe here. Best of all, I'm accepted here. Zane has already started making arrangements for us to get an apartment. I’m not sure if it’s something that is built and added to the mansion or if it’s already built. I don’t know, but I don’t care because we get our own place either way. While coming back was easier, I'm struggling to process stuff. I’m overly moody and irritable. My anxiety is sky high so much, so my appetite has been all wonky. Certain foods make me want to barf my guts up. It’s weird, but the smell or sight of eggs suddenly makes me want to hurl. I’ve been a little nauseous but not throwing up, t

Chapter 48- Ari
Zane and I head to see the coven doctor. I didn’t realize there was a medical wing in the mansion, but it is fucking huge. It’s five stories high and must be the size of a block in a major city. I feel like the damn thing just gets bigger every time I see it. It probably does because fucking magic.  It makes sense there would be a medical wing. I still have so much to see and learn about this mansion, but also this realm. As strange as this realm is, it has grown on me. I didn’t think I’d ever get used to living here, but I have. I still prefer the human realm, but I know I’m not necessarily safe there. At least here, I know I’m safe. Plus, our family is here. Making our way through the maze that is the coven manor, we end up in the healing wing. It looks like a mini hospital floor. There are hospital beds divided by curtains, a few rooms with sliding doors, a

Chapter 49-Sage
Liam and I are meeting with the boss today. I hope she isn’t a total bitch today. Our boss is a bitch, but she is the one who is going to make the realm belong to only the supernaturals. The humans are weak and take up too much space. They fear us and would have every supernatural killed if they could. They are worthless beings that serve no purpose. Not even the vampires have use for them anymore, well, the ones that are left, that is. Humans convinced supernaturals to help them hunt vampires, saying they were a danger to their race. Once I kill Ari and break the curses on my people, we will be strong enough to help the boss achieve her goal of a humanless world. As Liam parks the car outside the cute cottage, I notice Ghost pull up on his crotch rocket. That idiot, I can’t believe Zane pulled a fast one on him. Ari and Zane fucked up the plan badly. Those humans were supposed to die. It

Chapter 50- Sage
Mags sits at a chair around the table in the dining area. Ghost leans against the wall near us while Liam and I take seats at the table. “Looks like you finally cleaned up around here.” Ghost comments. “I didn’t do shit. It was Zane.” “Wait, Zane was here? Why the hell would Zane be here?” I question. “Zane is my son, if you fools must know. He needed my help with something for Ari. I couldn’t turn him down, or else he would get suspicious. I’m the only one who is interrogating today. So you three fucked up pretty hard, it seems. How did that happen?” Mags inquires, taking a drag off her cigarette. “It was Zane who stopped me. It was like he knew what we were planning. I don&r
