Chapter 37- Zane
Last Updated:
2022-04-23 03:53:10The time to meet with Ghost has come. Ari goes to the restroom to deal with her nervous bladder from drinking. I chuckle at her as she dances in the line, irritated that it’s not moving fast enough. I debate about fucking with her and telling her I’ll just put the shadows around her so she can pee in a cup. Somehow, I don’t think she will go for me fucking with her right now. Besides, I don't want to piss her off right before a mission. I know for a fact that if I were to mess with her like that, her rebellious side would come out. While I like poking that side, right now is not that moment.
After Ari is done with the restroom, we head to the loft. I give the bouncer guarding the stairs my name. He nods his head at us after checking his list. We head up the black stairs to the loft. There is a bar along the back wall. Sharp black leather chairs and couches are spread around wi

“No, they never play nice, but it’s been worse lately. They demand that supernaturals be segregated because we are too dangerous to live among them anymore. Well, I’m happy to teach them exactly how dangerous we can be. How’s your drink treating you, sweetheart?”“Good, it tastes like strawberries and the sunset.” She giggles at herself. Well, at least she can act high or act like the drugs and alcohol affect her.“Good, sweetheart, I’ll keep them coming all night. You let me know if you want more Sparkle.” Ghost winks at Ari, and she smiles at him. Ghost definitely wants her intoxicated. “Soon, you should be able to enjoy the show.” Ghost comments.Unfortunately, I know what show he is talking about, but I’ll stop it. Ar

Zane kisses me deeply as his tongue invades my mouth and entwines with mine. I melt at his touch and kisses. I can’t help it. The man knows how to get me a needy mess for him without trying. While my mind wants to fight this moment and get answers now, my heart and body are telling my mind to fuck off because I know Zane is about to fuck me like he owns my ass, and he does. I’ve been waiting all night for this knowing my alpha male would feel the need to remind me that he owns me. It makes for good sex, and right now, I’ll take good sex over my messy emotions. I want to forget the fucking world right now.“I didn’t like you touching Ghost.” He growls lowly as he breaks our kiss. He grabs a fist full of my hair to pull my head back, exposing my neck.“I didn’t like touching him. I feel dirty because of

The satisfying soreness between my legs reminds me of the great ending to our night. I know tomorrow will bring some things that might be hard to process. I’m ready for them, but right now, I want to bask in a great first mission we had. I have to admit Zane did not disappoint, and watching him in action was badass and slightly terrifying. The aura that comes from him is strong, but if there is even a sliver of truth to Ghost's statement, then Zane’s aura makes sense. I honestly don’t know the full details of Zane’s powers and abilities. I just know he’s slightly different from everyone else in his coven. All I know is that I’m glad I’m someone Zane loves because I would not want to be his enemy.When Zane was threatening Ghost, I saw darkness in him. Not an evil darkness, but a darkness that was like nothing I had ever seen on someone. It scared me, and yet

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

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

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

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

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

Everyone is gathered in the dining hall of the coven to celebrate Blaine as he is officially retiring today, and Cade is now the official leader of the Coven. Ever is a little over two now and a clever little thing. She’s also adorable, and everyone fawns over her. She absolutely loves the attention. Watching Ever bob and weave around people as she makes her way over to me. She runs into my arms, and I scoop her up. She looks so much like Ari with the same hair and facial features, but she has my dark gray eyes. Ever’s light wavy hair bounces as we make our way over to Ari, who is rubbing her growing belly. Ari and I got smart and started using some magical protection till we were ready for baby number two. Blair is standing next to Ari, also rubbing her baby bump.

Just as Sage is getting ready to come at me again, shadows move around me. I whip my head behind me to see Zane and Cade have arrived. Cade is already assisting Blair. Zane comes to my side as his shadows have Sage backing away toward Liam. Liam is now mostly healed, which would typically concern me, but Zane is here. Now the real games can begin. “Sorry, I’m late, Pet. I see you held your own just fine.” Zane states, taking out his war scythe. Zane has the shadows go around Sage and Liam, confusing them. I know how confusing the shadows can be. They overwhelm your senses, and for a werewolf, that’s torture. Zane controls the shadows, so he usually makes them friendly towards me unless it’s training. Right now, the shadows are definitely not being friendly towards Sage and Liam. I know the play

Zane was a force that unexpectedly came into my life, turning it upside down. Zane taking me away was the radical force that woke me up. He saw into my core, into my soul, and woke me from the numb, cold sleep I had put myself in to survive. I didn’t even know that I was without certain things till he came into my life. Zane is the only person to love me in this world. I don’t believe my own parents loved me, making me wonder if I was worthy of love. Then Zane came along and showed me my worth.Today I’m going to prove my worth by completing my destiny quest given to me by the Five. Then I’m going to go home with my soulmate and cuddle our adorable baby girl while surrounded by our family. First time to take a bitch down once and for all. Guess I should tap into my unresolved pain and turn it into a weapon.“You came,&r

Blair and I head to my old pack territory. It’s strange to be heading back there. I honestly thought when I left with Zane. I’d never be back. At first, that saddened me, but as I realized how shitty my life was with my pack, I was glad at the thought of never coming back. It figures Sage would lure me here. The old cemetery is considered haunted by the pack. Over the years, the stories grew crazier and wilder. I could never figure out why people thought it was haunted or cursed. Knowing the truth, the tales make sense. The cemetery's ground is indeed soaked in the blood of lycans and werewolves, the beginning of a curse that created not only one supernatural race but also a hybrid race. No doubt it’s haunted to some degree.Facing Sage for a final time and knowing I have to kill her is emotional. Despite Sage not being my friend, she was still my friend. I shouldn’t care abou

Mags opens the door, her usual cigarette puffing its pungent smell into my face. “My boy, you made it.” She says in her deep scraggly voice. Fate was not kind to her when it came to aging. She pissed him off badly. Generally, you’ve done and gone pissed off Fate if you age poorly. It’s not always the case, but it is a lot of the time. Sometimes he’s a petty asshole, which is why I’ll stay on his good side.“Yeah, you said you had information. I’m here for the information, not you, Mags.” I spit at her as I shove past her.As suspected, Mags has attempted to use a charm amplified by a spell. I can see the engravings of spell markings on the floor. I hear Mags shut the door. Seconds later, she is in front of me. “You were always an ungrateful child.”

After we gather ourselves, we finish off our shower by actually showering. Drying off, we both get dressed. Unfortunately, we can’t go in workout gear. We have to appear normal. I’m dressed in my black jeans and a black v-neck t-shirt paired with my black trench coat and black boots. My war scythe and gun are on my hip. I’ve loaded the gun with Iron bullets. Cade will have his pistol filled with silver bullets.Ari is wearing torn-up gray skinny jeans and a black tank top. Over the tank, she has a loose mesh punk sweater that hangs off her shoulders slightly and her black combat boots. Ari has on her choker. I love that she seldom takes it off and wears it everywhere. My Pet loves to show off that she belongs to me.Zara comes back with Ever, and we spend some time with her. Cade and Blair join us as it gets closer for us to leave.

Sure enough, in three days, we both get our texts bright in the morning as our Little Nightmare is waking from sleeping a solid four hours. I’m not sure why she slept for so long, but I’m not questioning it. We desperately need sleep. I read over the text from Mags.Hey, son. I’m sure your father and the rest of the Five have put you in charge of figuring out who is causing issues with the humans. I have some information that you will be interested in. Come to my cottage around seven tonight.I scrub my hand down my face. As much as I’m looking forward to one final fuck you to Mags and ending her miserable ass existence. I’m not looking forward to having to separate from Ari. I know she can handle her side of things till I get there, but I can’t help it. I love her so damn much I can’t stand the thought o

The sound of a fussy baby wakes me from my deep slumber. The overwhelming groggy feeling of being woken too soon overtakes me as I rub my eyes. I sit up in bed to find Ari standing, rocking Ever back and forth. Ari is so lost in soothing our daughter I don’t think she has even noticed I’m awake. Ari is a natural at being a mother, which doesn’t surprise me, but seems to surprise her. Sometimes Ari is entirely too hard on herself and doesn’t give herself credit for how amazing she is.Everly is a few weeks old and has been keeping us busy. Ari and I do our best to balance getting up so we both can get some sleep, training in, and eat. I never knew a newborn baby could be so demanding at odd hours of the night. Ever is that baby who is up all damn night and sleeps all damn day. Ari has been desperately trying to fix Ever’s sleep schedule. Ari’s patience is wearing th

Hard to believe I’m days away from popping. My stomach is stretched far too much, my back aches, the fake contractions have me freaking out, and my feet are like balloons. I’m ready for the Little Nightmare to come out. The nickname Little Nightmare seems to be sticking. It’s slightly fitting as her father is a demigod of death and her mothers is a lycan. These are definitely two things that would give normal people nightmares, and Everly is a combination of those things. We decided to call her Ever as a cute nickname and Little Nightmare as her nickname for when she is driving us crazy.Our apartment is finally ready and just in time too. Zane and I are hosting a little get together with our family tonight to celebrate our new addition to the family. Shortly after Everly is born, we will have to finish our missions. Everything has been on pause with my pregnancy. Even Fate seems to
