That's it this is the end of Raven's series. I do plan to continue the rewrite. Starting September 1st the rewrite will be released by episode. Check out my social media for updates.
“Raven, Pentu, look at me… focus on me, what do you feel? You’re the Goddess of Death, you will always feel death and their souls when they move through the veil, focus, what do you feel?” Mummo grabs the sides of my face and makes me look into her dark eyes that show endless wisdom and time.‘Raven get in there!’ Ruby screams in my head, trying to pull me into the fire to find our pups.“I feel… I feel Jacoby’s death, I feel Thane is on the edge… I can’t feel anything else, Mummo they’re in there. Phoenix, Gunnar, and Roan are in there with Ares and Kitty,” I nearly scream, feeling so much panic coursing through me as I try to focus all my energy on the burning structure in front of me.‘They can’t last forever! Raven, move, the fire won’t burn you, our pups need you!’ Ruby orders, trying to force me to move and walk straight into the fire.“I have to get in there,” I cry while forcing myself from Mummo’s grip, not exactly sure what to do or how, but I need to find my pups.‘I will p
“You did dis!” Phoenix points to Valery and Michelle as I stand behind her looking, watching Michelle’s reaction of shock and confusion while Valery looks afraid.“You twied to kill Alpha Queen Raben and my Gunnar!” Phoenix’s scream is full of rage as her hair begins to rise like she is floating in water. I look down and shake my head unable to believe what I am seeing; the ground beneath her feet is scorched.“I…” Valery tries to speak when Phoenix raises her hand and clenches her fist, silencing Valery, who looks around to everyone for help.“No lies! All you speak is lies! You only eber hurt Raben, you hewlped habe her hurt and bwamed it on Michelle!” Phoenix raises her fist making Valery rise until she’s hovering just inches off the ground, unable to move.Michelle’s eyes widen in horror as I watch Thane slowly limp his way to her and pull her into his arms. She whimpers as she can’t take her eyes away from her twin who has done nothing but betray her family.“You, your mate worke
“Where are they?” I frantically look around as a whimper escapes me, feeling the strongest urge to hold my pups and never let them go.“Right here, I have them right here for you,” Dad’s voice comes from behind Embry, making my mates move apart.“Thank the Goddess,” I sob, rushing to grab my pups from him, pulling Roan and Gunnar into my chest feeling like they can’t get close enough.“They’re perfectly fine, Phoenix protected them well,” my father’s voice softens as he does his best to reassure me, watching my mates holding our pups and me.“I’m so sorry this happened, I know it is because of Dagon’s fear of me. If Phoenix hadn’t been with our pups they’d be gone,” I cry into Jonathan’s shoulder as my body shudders in exhaustion. My mate pulls me deep into his arms, holding the three of us close using the bond to the help soothe my frayed nerves.“Shhh, you have no reason to be sorry Rakas. None of this is your fault,” Jonathan speaks softly, rocking me in his comforting embrace. I f
“I…” “Don’t think about it Bunny, I know you’re feeling lost and overwhelmed about everything. Let your mind rest for now and let us wash you,” Osric stops me from letting my thoughts run wild, and I nod knowing he is right.“Thank you, I love you,” I softly speak while wrapping my arms around his broad muscular shoulders after he pulls my chemise off, leaving me naked in front of him. I take in a deep breath, closing my eyes letting his warmth seep into my body as I let my body instinctively mold around his hard muscles.“I love you too, we’re going to be ok,” Osric whispers against my neck, he presses his lips to my shoulder while soothing me with the trail of tingles his hand leaves behind, as he rubs my back.“And I love both of you too,” I softly speak after stepping out of Osric’s warm embrace. I step into the hot shower where Jonathan and Embry are standing back-to-back, bracing themselves against the shower walls letting the water flow over them beneath the flow from two showe
My allies, friends, family, and I, sit around a meeting table as we wait for Mum to lay Phoenix down.“Osric, help Mum,” Embry raises an eye brow and scolds our mate, making me giggle watching Mum come into the office carrying a tray of tea.“Did she go down easy?” Ares questions, getting up he is quick to help Mum pass out the tea, she smiles at him and nods.“Right away, Phoenix adores that boy, she curled up around Gunnar and Roan and passed right out, she’s exhausted,” Mum answers while patting Benjamin’s back, as she passes behind him.“She should be, the amount of energy she must have exhausted was incredible,” Benjamin chuckles, then shakes his head, and stares down at the table in disbelief. We look up, when tension begins to grow, as Thane and Michelle enter the room to stand guard behind Ryder and Liliana.“She used an enormous amount of energy, I haven’t seen a witch with magic like hers in centuries,” Mum admits, with a slight bit of worry coming though in her voice. She s
“Back to the matter at hand, Mummo or Mum, do Phoenix’s abilities pose any threat to us?” I ask, shifting over to Embry’s warm lap and pull his arms around me, needing to feel his body against mine. Relaxing into his arms I am reminded of the comfort he gave me after my mother’s death.“She’s a very powerful threat to her enemies, but she’ll ever be a threat to us so long as no one betrays Raven, or Gunnar. Her bond to him is very strong, and she knows these packs are her family, she’ll do anything to protect that,” Mummo answers, after taking a sip of her tea, and I nod in understanding. It makes sense Gunnar would be Phoenix’s biggest trigger since she knows he’s her mate, her instinct to protect him is very strong.“What if she loses control?” Ares asks nervously, he holds Benjamin’s hand between his and rests his chin on their clasped hands with his elbows resting on the table.“Her magic is different to a Lycan Alpha, she won’t lose control in the same way. Yes, she can get overw
“Everything ok?” Freya’s voice is laced with concern and I nod with a slight shrug knowing things aren’t ok, but they will be eventually. “She’s afraid of hurting them and being rejected and having to go back to being a rogue,” I answer while sitting in Jonathan’s lap.“She’s had a rough life, hasn’t she?” Freya whimpers a little before taking a deep breath, as Liliana holds her hand hoping to calm her mate.“She has, but she’ll be ok. Ares and Benjamin are exactly what she needs,” I reassure with a slight smile, I’m glad to see the concern she has for her niece.“She seems to fit in perfectly with them. I can’t imagine having that kind of power, let alone being afraid of it,” Freya looks over at Liliana who has a grim expression as she nods to me knowing that’s how most of my upbringing has been.“Phoenix has had it hard, but it will get easier than I had it in some ways because she has people who know about her abilities and can help her learn. I always grew up scared because no one
Osric’s POV “Did you sleep?” Embry sits up against the headboard and yawns as I glance out the window to see the sun beginning to rise. “No,” I shake my head and take a deep breath as I watch Raven sleep protectively curled up around Gunnar and Roan, who are sleeping on my chest. I have spent the entire night stuck in my head watching them, afraid to close my eyes thinking I will wake up to find out they’re gone and this is just a dream. “You need to sleep,” Embry stretches making me smirk seeing the thick muscles on his arms flex, he runs his fingers through his brilliant red hair brushing it out of his face and blushes noticing my gaze. “I know, I just couldn’t stop watching them… we almost lost everything,” I do my best to remain calm despite how angry I really feel that my family is in danger again. What kills me the most about the whole situation with Dagon being alive, somehow, after I killed him. Somehow, this motherfucker came back to not only haunt me, but he is now hell
