The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Epilogue- Ever
It’s been seven years since Sebastian and I officially started our lives together. We say our life together started when I pulled him out of the crystal ball. We have two adorable kids. Our son Rex is five, and our daughter Harlyn is three. They are unique kiddos, given their abilities. Sebastian and I love them dearly, and of course, my parents are thrilled to be grandparents. Sebastian and I have been helping Death with the underworld. It’s been an interesting ride working in the underworld. Death managed to build a bridge between his realm and the coven’s realm. Cerberus guards the bridge to make sure no unwanted visitors try to enter the underworld. So far, no one has had the balls to test Cerberus. Cas has been a big part of our little family. The kids love him. Sebastian and I have our own apartment across the way from my parents' place. Kai is now running the coven with his soulmate by his side. Rupert has found his familiar, and they are living a good life together. He’s in
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 1- Everly
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
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 2- Everly
Nothing about my family would be considered normal. Nothing about the realm I live in would be considered normal either. Yet, we are probably one of the most functioning and loving families one could meet. My parents love and support Kai and me. We are close to each other, and I love my family. I feel safe and happy when I’m around them. I’ve always felt loved by my parents, really my whole family. Even Death has my back. After all, Dad and his entire bloodline are the legacy of Death, so he has a vested interest in us.There is a knock on my door. “Come in,” I state, turning to my closet to grab some more clothes to pack. I have no idea what I will need, so I’m packing a little of everything. “Are you planning on packing your entire room?” Kai asks with a raised eyebrow as I come out of my closet with an arm full of random clothes. “Maybe. What’s it to you, Punk?” I ask, dropping the pile of clothes onto my bed. “Your room looks like a tornado hit it,” Kai states as he shuts the d

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
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 4- Everly
I look over myself in my full-length mirror before I leave my room to go meet my parents. They are walking me into the ballroom for my party. I’m not sure why there needs to be a grand entrance, something to do with coven traditions. I didn't pay attention when grandma started talking about it. I know I shouldn’t have tuned her out, but I really wasn’t in the mood for a lesson on coven traditions on balls. I didn’t have it in me to care that day. I know that’s horrible to say, but there are just some days I’m not in the mood to hear about the coven. I love my coven. I do. They are a fantastic community, but my whole life revolves around the coven. I’m part of the bloodline created to help run the coven and maintain the coven’s realm while maintaining its magic as well. I’ve spent so much time learning about the coven, its history, traditions, ceremonies, and its secrets. I’m happy to serve my coven. I’m proud to be my father’s daughter, the granddaughter of Death, but damn sometimes,
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 5-Everly
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.

The drive to the music academy will take a few hours. So, I enjoy the open road before I hit the city where the school is located. Cas is enjoying the wind and has his tongue sticking out. I’m enjoying the drive. It’s the first time I’ve driven on my own. Dad usually lets me drive when we go on missions together, but it’s nice to enjoy the ride by myself. My thoughts wander to what exactly Death meant about me meeting my soul mate and that he was unique like me. I’m assuming it means he’s a type of hybrid. I honestly wasn’t expecting to meet my soulmate any time soon. I know it will happen, but I’m not sure I’m ready for it to happen right away. Although, I have no idea when exactly on my journey I will meet my soulmate. It could be at the academy, or it could be after it. I’m only planning on being at the music academy for a few months. I’m there to figure out what’s going on and if it’s being haunted by a spirit. Yes, I’m also there for the music and to explore my hobby. If I’m ho
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 7- Sebastian
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

The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 32- Sebastian
My eyes flutter open. Ever pulled me out and saved me while I was able to save the other spirits that were trapped. I wasn’t able to shift. I tried the second I was out, but as I feared, I was stuck in phantom form for too long. I have no idea how long I was in there, but it was long enough for me to have trouble shifting back to human form. They got salt and forced me to shift, but when they did, I passed out. I can assume being trapped in the crystal ball weakened me to some extent. While I was able to use my skills and practice my skills, I’m sure it drained me to do it. It was worth it, though, because I was able to help the other spirits. Looking around, I realize I’m in Everly’s room, and that’s when I realize the weight that is on my arm. I find Ever curled up next to me, sleeping on my arm, which explains why it’s numb. I’m lying on my back, so I roll to my side and pull her body closer to me. There is nothing better than when she is in my arms. I’ve missed her, and I never
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 31-Ever
I wake up in my bed. I guess my parents put me in my bed after all. I’m dreading going to Death, but I know I have to do it. I can’t put it off any longer. I know he has the answer, and while I still fear what he might think, I can’t let fear get to me. Dad insists Death won’t see my mission as a failure. Maybe I am the only one who sees it as such. I wonder if Sebastian feels the same way I do? I hope Sebastian doesn’t hate me for not being able to protect him, which is a new fear I just thought of. Great. As if I need my anxiety to give me more reasons to not want to do this. Rolling out of bed I decide to procrastinate. I said I would go see Death today. I never said it would be right when I woke up. So, I take a shower. I do stink from training yesterday, and I want to feel fresh for whatever I’m about to face. Plus, a shower will perk me up. Feeling fresh and renewed is always good for the soul. I pop on the shower and let it warm up. I decide to use the shadows to quickly cha

I’m losing my mind in this prison world of the crystal ball. There is no sense of time here. No change of day or night. The sky stays the same blood red color. I don’t know if two days or an entire year have passed. There’s no way to tell, and it’s driving me insane not knowing. Not only that but I’ve never been stuck in my phantom form for this long before. I’ve only been in it for a few days, tops. I fear that I might struggle to get back to my human form if I can get back to it all. That’s the problem with any type of shifter. If they are stuck in their counterpart too long, they get stuck in animal form or whatever their other form is. I’m not technically defined as a shifter because I’m a hybrid, but the rules that apply to shifters tend to apply to me as well. The one good thing is that I have managed to find the other spirits. It took some time to find them and get them to trust me. Most of them were confused and scared. There are hundreds of them trapped here. I can save t
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 29- Ever
It’s been about a month since Sebastian got trapped in the cursed crystal ball. I still have nothing. All my research has led me nowhere. Even with Mom’s help, I’ve got nothing. Not to mention Sebastian is a hybrid, and most normal rules don’t apply to hybrids. We are unique, and the rules usually need to be bent for us. So, even if I find something doesn’t mean it would work, or I’d have to find a way to make it work for Sebastian. To add to the complications, he’s also the only hybrid of his kind. I’m beyond frustrated. It’s starting to look like going to Death is my only real option. I’m still not sure I can face the embracement of my failure yet. I need to, though, if I want to save my soulmate. I’m still spiraling and pushing myself past my limits. Kai kindly tried to remind me that I need to not push myself, but I can’t help it. The training and research are the only things keeping me sane, or at least that’s how it feels. Besides feeling like a failure, I realized my gut w
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 28- Zane
Everything is a diaster. I know it’s temporary, but that doesn’t change the fact that a shit storm has hit. Cade is fucking mess. Dad and I tried talking to him about letting me take over for him, so he could get himself together, but that stubborn asshole wouldn't step down. He was being difficult, and of course, right as he’s throwing a tantrum like a toddler, I get a message from Everly that she needs me. I knew it was serious, and I tried to leave right away, but Cade started beating Dad. I’ve never seen Cade be violent towards anyone he cares about or really be violent in general. Cade always prided himself on being a goody two shoes. He’s never killed anyone, and while he is powerful, he’s never been skilled with combat. His combat skills are very basic, and no one ever trusted him in the field by himself. On the other hand, Rupert is very good with his combat and is skilled. I could have left Blaine. I know he could handle himself, but I didn’t want to risk it. He’s older and
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 27- Ever
It’s been a few weeks since Sebastian got trapped in the crystal ball. The damn thing is sitting on my nightstand, and I practically take it everywhere with me in determination to save him. Guilt, hate, and depression have all crept in over the last few weeks. I hate that I couldn’t protect him long enough. That I couldn’t hold Stella off from transforming. She and I have been at odds because I blame her. If she hadn’t forced the transformation, Sebastian would still be here. I know Stella feels guilty like I do, and I know it’s not totally her fault. However, I need someone else to blame other than myself. Okay, technically, Stella is a part of me, and so blaming her is still blaming myself, but whatever that’s semantics that I’m in no mood for. I’m not mad or upset with Dad, even though I know he feels guilty for not showing up on time. Apparently, he and Grandpa were trying to get Cade out of his ass. They were talking to him about giving up leadership to Dad since Uncle Cade
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 26- Sebastian
I hated that I fell right into Levi’s trap. That asshole wanted me to transform. Ever protected me, but I hated that I couldn’t help her. I couldn’t fight alongside her. I was stuck being protected by her shadows while she struggled. I knew she was strong, and I could watch her through the shadows as she dodged Levi. She is skilled, but I could tell Levi was provoking Stella. Ever was trying to get Mina to break her cast, but the damn bitch wouldn’t give up. She held on longer than either of us thought as the cast was destroying her body. Mina would have rather died than dropped the cast. Levi was doing everything he could to distract Ever from her cast, but her resolve was stronger. However, the physical attacks were provoking Stella to shift. Ever did her best to control Stella, but in the end, Stella won and shifted, which caused Ever to drop her shadow barrier. The Moment the crystal ball's red light touched me, I knew it was over. Zane showed up at the last minute, so I at lea
The Coven of the Crow and Shadows: Ghost Opera Chapter 25- Ever
Things went so much better than expected with visiting Death. I can’t believe he wants us to help him run the underworld. Well, help Dad run the underworld. It’s no secret that Death has been grooming Dad to take over for him. Dad’s been resistant to the idea of fully taking over for Death. Secretly Dad enjoys running the underworld. He might not have liked it at first, but he likes it now. I think the reason he doesn’t want to fully take over full time is he would have to live there, and there is no way Mom would ever be comfortable in the underworld. Maybe there is a solution to that problem. After all, Dad can teleport using the shadows, but there has to be an easier way. Hopefully, Dad figures it out because I’m not raising my family in the underworld. Working there is one thing, but living there is something else entirely. That’s all in the future. Right now, we are saying goodbye to my family before we head back to the academy. Sebastian and I are eager to get this mission ov
