Chapter 55- Zane
Arriving back at home, Ari is sound asleep. Deciding it’s best not to wake her and let her rest, I head to see Blaine. I know he’s in his office. Zara is busy ensuring our apartment is done before the baby gets here. Cade and Blair are trying to help out in the field for a bit since Ari, and I aren’t able to do any missions at the moment. I think Zara is secretly hoping Blair comes back pregnant like Ari did.
I still can’t believe we forgot about protection. I can’t even blame Ari even if I wanted to. She was a virgin lost in the experience of discovering her sexual desires. However, I am the one who should have thought ahead more. I let my desires cloud my thoughts. While having a child feels so sudden and almost misplaced in time, I’m thrilled to have a child. It’s hard to picture someone like me as a person who loves the idea of being a father.

After chatting a bit more with Blaine, I feel better. Blaine is a great person to talk to get things off your chest. His solutions to most of my issues were helpful. I know breaking the news to Ari won’t be easy, but I believe she can do this. I know she can. She’s strong, and Blaine's right. With any luck, it will come down to self-defense. It will ease Ari’s guilt if it’s self-defense. I don’t know how she will feel about the situation, but she has time to come to terms with it. She can’t leave this realm till our daughter is born. She has about three months, maybe more, because I know she isn’t going to want to leave our baby right away.Despite what Ari may think about herself, she has excellent maternal instincts and instincts in general. She will be a loving and caring mother. Zara, I’m sure, will give her pointers and advice just like I’m s

Finding out I have to kill Sage has been a hard pill to swallow. I have a few months left of my pregnancy before I have to lore Sage onto sacred ground and kill her to unite lycans and werewolves. Out of all the scenarios I imagined how I would finish this destiny quest, killing Sage wasn’t one of them. While Sage and I are no longer friends, and I hold deep resentment towards her for how she used me, I still don’t want to kill her. Zane suggested I have Sasha take control for the actual killing part. It’s not a bad idea and one that I’m going to go with because it’s the only way I can even attempt to stomach what I have to do.Zara has been distracting me with setting up the nursery for our daughter.

After several hours of picking paint colors for the various rooms of our apartment, it’s dinner time. Zane and I primarily eat in the dining hall with everyone else. It’s our way of staying connected with the members of the coven. So many of them turn to Zane, Cade, and Blaine for advice, guidance, and help with various things.

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

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.

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

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.

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.”
