Hayle Coven Novels Chapter 312: Sebastian's Aid
I was so excited I found myself vibrating with a mix of thrill and fear as Sebastian handed Uncle Frank over to Anastasia and strode through the entry of the house on his way to the Council chamber. It was quite late, or early depending on your undead status, and I knew we were running out of night time. Not that it seemed to stop Sebastian or even slow him down.And I thought Sunny was scary when she was pissed. He'd retained enough of his angel- of-death power his deadly allure still remained. Doors opened, sleepy witches looking out only to be snared by his energy and drawn forward. Even the Enforcers who rushed out to stop him appeared suddenly awestruck the moment they entered his sphere of influence. They followed him in a line, like the fabled rats behind the Pied Piper, pulled by the call of his vampire magic. I felt it too, though I was no longer compelled to obey it and wondered about the refreshed bite inside me the virus had awakened.Later. So much later. I had Mom to sa
Hayle Coven Novels Chapter 313: Loss Of A Friend
I ignored the Enforcers. Blocked out Quaid's cold, angry words to them. Felt myself guided into the front seat of the family van. Accepted the hands belting me in. Held myself rigid and still, telling myself as long as I kept everything together things would be fine, just fine, Alison would be...Fine.But she wasn't fine. Not from the aching energy of Galleytrot's power, the subtle hum of him like a gathering rainstorm. Not from the gentle way Quaid held my hand after he climbed behind the wheel and slammed the door, closing the Enforcers and the world off from the rest of us. Not from the roughness of Sassy's tongue as he leaped into my lap and bathed my cheek in kisses before turning, balanced on my legs, looking out the window, my little sister crying softly in the back seat.No. This was wrong, couldn't be right, couldn't be happening.Was. Not.The drive took forever and no time at all. How did we arrive so quickly at the edge of the lake when it seemed like time didn't move
Hayle Coven Novels Chapter 314: Tears Of The Coven
We didn't move, not one of us, not even when the alarms drew close, when the firefighters arrived, the police. Usually the intrusion of normals would make us flee. But we couldn't leave them, not one of us.We were finally forced back by normals who thought this was some ordinary fire. But I knew better. Had felt a fire like this one before, knew it was fed by magic outside my own, by sorcery.Someone set it to kill the Vegas. For what they knew. I screamed inside my head at myself. They wanted to talk to me. I knew it was important. And I let them down. Would they be alive now if I'd found the time, made the time, stopped for one moment and gave them the attention they'd asked for?How much guilt could one girl survive, exactly? Because it appeared I'd signed up to find out.Who has done this? The twins found my mind, their rage making their mental voices quiver.I don't know. I let the whole coven feel my shame. But Martin and Louisa were silenced, I have no doubt of that.Quai
Hayle Coven Novels Chapter 315: Trial
The shower was hot, the steam filling the entire room by the time I stepped out. My skin was tight, but I at least felt clean at last.On the outside.Mom's clothes were a shroud, wrapping me in her protection, as though I could don her skin and shed my own. Her reflection stared back at me, the scent of her all around me, keeping my head straight, my priorities in order.My mother. She was the only one who mattered today.The rest would have to wait.Meira's eyes were red-rimmed, her skin deeper crimson than usual. I sat with her for a bit, more guilt joining the pain I already felt that I'd left my sister out. I'd let Sassy deal with her when we arrived home, stumbled off to the shower and the retreat from reality it offered, the quiet and stillness of Mom's room, Mom's memory.But now I needed to be with my sister, if only for a few minutes."I'm sorry about Alison." Meira sniffled, wiping her nose with the corner of her sleeve in the warm sunlight of the kitchen. I handed he
Hayle Coven Novels Chapter 316: Their Side Of The Story
Today's bound to be hard, Gram sent. You'll be hearing only their side of the story. Try to keep your temper. There was a hint of amusement fueled by satisfaction in her mental voice. But oh wouldn't I love to see you burn them all to the ground?Don't tempt me. I ground my teeth together as the annoying little man gestured like he was ten feet tall at the Enforcers near the main door. The big wooden portal unsealed and Mom was marched inside. Her eyes found me the moment she passed through and though she hid it well I knew then someone filled her in on what happened. Either that or the walls the Council had built around her to keep her from contacting anyone with her power were simply nothing compared to the bond of the coven.I was betting on a combination of both.The secretary read his nasty little list of accusations all over again. This time I listened closely to all of them, though I knew the final one was the only one that mattered."Miriam Hayle," he said, "you stand accus
Hayle Coven Novels Chapter 317: Day Two
Morning light woke me, burning my crusted eyes, making me groan. I rolled sideways, snuggling closer to the warm body next to me, feeling Quaid stretch and sigh as his face turned toward me in sleep, breath on my forehead.I clutched at the front of his T-shirt, memories returning in a wash of sadness. I felt him wake as I cried again, wetting the fabric under my cheek, his hand gently, ever so gently, stroking my hair over and over again."You're still here." It wasn't fair of me to say, I knew that, but part of my fear was waking to find him gone again. He tensed beneath me as if I'd poked a wound he'd thought healed."I am." He hugged me then, lips pressed to my skin as his words whispered in my ear. "And from now on, and for as long as you need me, I always will be here."I wanted to believe him. Chose to.Another hot shower, this time shorter, but necessary. I joined the others for breakfast, choked down some oatmeal and toast only after Charlotte stood over me with a spatula
Hayle Coven Novels Chapter 318: Dad To The Rescue
That was my cue. I stood and gestured at the Enforcers near the entrance. "Open the door."Batsheva glared at me, but the two black-robed witches obeyed without even hesitating. The seal retreated, the wooden portal swinging open. Batsheva's magic climbed around it as she fought to keep control. Quaid entered first, Dad's statue floating behind him. I joined my power to his, bringing Dad's effigy forward to stand front and center, right in the Council's faces.Even better? I placed it right in the path of a sunbeam. The light caught the facets of his effigy and turned it into a sparkling star."Behold," I said, letting my magic boost my volume, "the Demon Lord."Dad didn't need my help. I felt him hovering there, waiting for my signal. And, right on time, he seized the moment and tore open the veil, stepping though into his statue.More gasps. You'd think they'd never seen a demon before, the way he flooded the diamond with life, red tinted skin not reverting to human tone. Instea
Hayle Coven Novels Chapter 319: Vampire Virus
I was still standing there, staring at the glowing light, when the door behind me opened. I spun, tucking the box behind my back, as Charlotte strode in, fury snapping in her wolf eyes."You're free to go," she said with a snarl."I thought I had to stay in custody?" It was a real relief to know I could escape the room."Evidently not everyone was under the same rules," she said, her accent worse as her temper flared. "What is true for one must be true for all. When I spotted Odette and Benita Santos talking in the hall I told the Enforcers either make them return to their rooms or rescind the ridiculous order. The Enforcers weren't exactly all that willing to listen to reason.""Okay." I found myself grinning at her savage expression. "Obviously the first suggestion didn't go over. Mind telling me what you did to make them listen to the second?Charlotte's eyes tightened, her entire body wound like an animal ready to attack. "I didn't do anything," she said in a growl as her eyes
