บททั้งหมดของ The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Eighteen is a special birthday for many. My eighteenth birthday is special for different reasons than one would think. Eighteen signifies adulthood, but I’m not so sure adulthood is important to an immortal. It’s not even that I have all the time in the world to grow up. Ever since I started going on missions with my dad at fourteen, I’ve grown up. When you learn to reap souls, and one of your grandfathers is Death, well, you grow up on faster. That doesn’t mean I didn't have a childhood. My parents are amazing. They did everything to help keep me little for as long as possible. I’m close with my parents. Actually, I’m close with my whole family. Even my annoying little brother, Kai, and I are close. I love my family, but I’m also looking forward to independence. That’s what turning eighteen means for me. The deal I have with my parents is that I can finally go to the human realm on my own. I’m going to travel and explore. They want me to enjoy life a little bit before I start going

Walking out of our bathroom, I find Zane relaxing in bed. He’s dressed in his black dress pants and a black button-down shirt. His arms rest behind his head with his eyes closed. I know he wanted to relax a bit before Everly’s birthday party. I can’t believe my baby girl is eighteen today. I feel like I just had her. Kai isn’t far behind his sister. In a few years, he, too, will be leaving to explore the human realm. I sigh, putting my hand on my belly. Here we go again, I think as I walk towards Zane. Climbing onto the bed, I settle myself next to him. He peeks his eyes open at me. “What’s wrong, Pet.” He asks, wrapping his one arm around me and pulling me closer to him. I can always count on Zane. He’s the best damn soulmate I could have ever asked for. I don't even care that he’s my master anymore. Crazy to think that I fought him so hard on our relationship at one point in time. Zane has proven to me time and time again that he loves me. He’s helped me grow as a person and has e

My alarm going off on my phone wakes me from the peaceful sleep I was in. Ugh, I hate mornings, but today is a special day. Today I leave the coven’s realm on my own. Today I start my adventure, and with that exciting thought, I hop out of bed as excitement burns in my veins. I quickly get dressed in black skinny jeans, a dark purple peasant-style top, and my black combat boots. I have on my necklace that my Mom gave me. I’m in love with all my wonderful and thoughtful gifts from my family. My grandparents give me my own grimoire to start filling with my own spells, potions, and notes. I’ve packed it along with everything else. I happily bounce to the kitchen, where my parents are preparing breakfast for the four of us. “Morning!” I greet my parents in a cheerful tone as I head to the coffee maker to pour myself a cup of coffee. “Morning, Little Nightmare.” My parents greet me in unison. “Ugh, how are you three so cheerful in the morning?” Kai grumbles, walking into the kitchen.

Everly Shaodws is an interesting girl. She’s a lycan, but I sense there is more to her than meets the eye. She’s incredibly beautiful with her unique hair color and swirling grey eyes. She’s about a head and a half shorter than me. Everly has clearly captured my brother's attention, and how could she not with her beauty. Levi has a thing for supernatural girls. His current conquest and current star is Mina. She’s a witch, and I don’t trust her. I mainly don’t trust her because she is obsessed with Levi and how he can skyrocket her to fame. She’s using him, and I have no doubt he is using her. I wouldn't be surprised if they are working together to capture the spirits that come here for peace, only to be imprisoned. I have no proof, of course, but I’m working on gathering it. My father, Erik Octavian, told spirits to come here to listen to the music back when this place was still an opera house. He knew the music would soothe their weary souls. My father was special. He spent his li

I’m sitting in my office going over the academy's finances and paying the bills. I hate doing the grunt work, but I don’t trust anyone else with this. Especially don’t trust my brother. He’s a freak of nature who should have never been born. His filthy father stole my mother’s innocence. He seduced her and impregnated her with a freak show. No matter, soon I will have the problem rectified. “How fucking dare you give my part to that lycan bitch!” Mina storms into my office, screaming at me like a fucking banshee. “Calm down, Mina. I have my reasons. One, I didn’t want you doing a song with my brother. Two, I think the lycan and my brother have a thing for each other, and if they do, then pushing them together might work to my advantage. I’ve waited years to find my brother's fucking weakness, and now I might have just found it in the pretty little lycan girl. Besides, there is something more than meets the eye with Everly.” “Are you attracted to her?”“Mina, you know you are the on
