The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 44
Chapter 44 When Raphael marked me, it was as if he was just touching my face. I didn’t feel anything for him, I didn’t feel anything at all, really, except a slight tingling. Which was still there in the morning, and that is why I checked the mirror. That must be what happens when you are marked and there are no feelings there prior. The feelings take a little time to manifest. When Raziel marked me, it was as if every fiber of my being exploded into ecstasy! It was a feeling that I can't even explain. Something more, something deep down to my core. It felt like his mark ran straight through me, invading every inch of my soul. Like it touched my every nerve ending, every fiber of my entire being, linking me to him for eternity. I watched him step back after he was done and admire me. I had no idea what his mark actually looked like, but I was assuming it was similar to the crescent moon on his golden gate at his house. Raphael’s was the same as his silver gate, so I was just guessi

Chapter 45 Once morning came, my mind was reeling with my newfound abilities. I was going over all the practices in my head and I was ready to start the day training. I threw on a gold sports bra and black shorts with my gold combat boots. Then I headed to the bathroom and threw my hair into a high pony. Raziel, of course, was matching, with his black and gold suit. I loved that we always matched. It made me feel like we were actually a couple. I mean, we were actually a couple... but I don’t know, I just loved it. He pulled me into his arms and kissed me before we left, which made my mark explode with pleasure. It was literally everything I had to just walk out of this room with him, hand in hand, and all of our clothes intact. But I had other things on my mind as well. The Darkness. I hadn’t forgotten the meeting we had... or my dream, or whatever that was last night. I knew there would be a price, there had to be. But The Darkness was literally the only thing keeping me together

Chapter 46 (Raziel) I couldn’t help but worry about Rayne. Something was different about her ever since she lost her mate bond. There were times when she was perfectly fine. When she seemed normal, like her old self. Those were the times when nothing seemed different, and everything was ok. Then there were times when I could feel something, something dark. Like a darker energy trying to push its way through her. I didn’t know what it was. I had never encountered this before, but when making deals with The Shadows you never know what you will really get. I could only assume it had something to do with her losing her mate bond. That was my best guess, if I had to guess, of course. I tried my best to conceal my worry, but every time it threatened to take over, I could see it in her platinum eyes. She didn’t know, but they had black smoke looming in them when it was near. It flooded through her platinum orbs, slow and snake-like until it overwhelmed them. The sight always worried me.

Chapter 47 I waited until Raziel left for his Coven meeting and then I got up and got ready for the day. I had big plans today. Oh, trust me, I had huge plans, actually. I was careful to make sure Raziel didn’t notice anything different. I couldn’t have him asking me any questions. I always had trouble lying to him. It would just be better if I didn’t even have to. I did one last mirror check before I materialized to Alpha Drake. He was sitting, alone, in his office, mulling over some papers. He was wearing only a pair of red gym shorts without a shirt. His hair was messy as if he had been running his hand through it recently. I couldn’t help but notice his perfectly olive colored skin was reflecting every muscle that rippled down his chest and arms in the glow from his desk lamp. He had a glass of brandy on his desk, but it looked like he hadn't touched it. The ball of ice in the middle was halfway melted. He looked up at me and we locked eyes. He didn't move a muscle, but I could

Chapter 48 Within seconds, it was as if my entire body was consumed by The Darkness. I was suspended midair, surrounded by a whirlwind of dark smoke. I could feel The Darkness engulfing me in an extreme blast of icy warmth. I closed my eyes and just took in every ounce of the icy warmth, feeling it remove any remnant of the void I had once felt. This time the icy warmth didn't go away, it felt permanent. I was reeling with power as if it were a constant flow. The dark energy flowed so easily through my palms, and it felt as if anything I wanted, I could have. I felt like a Goddess... No, I was a Goddess. Suddenly, I felt the familiar pull away from The Darkness as Raziel was gently slapping my face to wake me up. “Rayne, Rayne, come on, wake up!” He said with panic in his voice. My eyes fluttered open slowly and I saw him gasp when he looked at me. I could see my reflection in his golden eyes. My eyes were completely black... I shook it off, and materialized up and into a standing

Chapter 49 (Raziel) My Coven meeting had just ended when I felt the familiar venomous mind link from Alpha Drake wash over me. Rayne apparently had him by the throat in his office, and he wasn't sure if he was going to come out alive this time. I materialized to them just in time to see Rayne about to rip Alpha Drake’s heart straight from his chest. "Rayne no!" I shouted, as I engulfed her in a green fireball and suspended her in the air. I was trying to wrap my head around what was happening when she suddenly threw both of her hands down and out to the sides and completely destroyed my fireball, releasing herself and landing gracefully in front of me on one knee. I was shocked. How in the hell did she do that?! She looked up at me and we locked eyes. If looks could kill, I would have been dead. I could see the smoke clouding in her eyes, which had a wave of fear rolling over me. This was so much more than I anticipated. I knew the time would come that we would have to face whatev

Chapter 50 (Rayne) After my breakdown Raziel and I went home. I was expecting him to drill me with a million questions about my newfound powers, my black eyes, or anything that had just happened. But to my surprise, he didn’t. I knew he wanted to know, and he wanted to ask. I think I was in such a fragile state that he figured it would be better to just let me talk when I was ready. I was thankful for this. The truth is, I was never going to be ready. How would I explain this? Oh sorry, I was so sad that The Darkness came to fill the void and I agreed to let it in knowing this was a bad idea? Oh, yea and Wynter hasn’t been present in my mind in at least a month, so I’m just, you know, dealing with this shit alone? I know, I know. I almost killed my Alpha, but The Darkness just makes me feel better, so that makes it ok, right? How do you even say that? I wouldn't even know where to begin. Plus, the fact that I had power superior to his... I know he was afraid. I just didn’t know h

Chapter 51 I found myself floating on top of a cloud of black smoke, just like I had before. This time was different though. I wasn’t me. I mean, I was me, but it was like I was someone else, and I was watching me. I looked like a dark Goddess. I was dressed in a long flowing black and silver dress, with slits on both sides up to mid-thigh. The top was sleeveless, but low cut, showing off my cleavage in an extremely flattering way. I had a crown on, that looked as if it were made from The Darkness itself. My silver hair was pin straight, how I always wear it. My makeup was on point, a dark smokey eye with a winged liner look, and black lipstick. I was holding a staff with a giant black obsidian ball on the end, which had black flames burning on it. I looked fucking enchanting. I looked powerful, magical, and equally terrifying. I was commanding an army of what looked like new Vampires... maybe it was the dead? I couldn’t really tell, but they were all lined up in rows. There were h

The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 61
Chapter 61 My entire pack was here! Roman came in behind me yelling surprise and blowing into one of those little horn things that make an obnoxious noise. You know, the ones with the streamers on the end. I couldn’t help but laugh at his childlike nature. I could smell the burgers and plethora of other grilled foods and looking towards the smell there were Wolves cooking. Even though I swear we had just eaten, I definitely wanted to eat whatever it was they were making. There was an open bar on the other side of the arena that I spotted, which I was definitely going to partake in, and the whole arena was decorated in gold decorations. I noticed that everyone there was wearing something gold. Some, more than others, but most were wearing an accent of gold, all matching my dress perfectly. Raziel really went out of his way to plan this, and I smiled at the thought. I could hear electronic dance music, my favorite genre, playing in the background and Wolves were out dancing on the da
The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 60
Chapter 60 When I woke up in the morning Raziel was not in bed, he wasn’t even home. That was strange... I’m turning 21 today, and for him to not be here when I woke up? He must be busy with whatever his surprise is. I jumped in the shower, and when I got out, I noticed an outfit picked out for me sitting on the chaise lounge at the foot of the bed. It was an extremely pretty gold dress, with a slit on one side up to my upper thigh. The top was backless with a higher neckline, and a strap that just went around my neck. It was glittery and gorgeous. I put my hair in beachy waves, as I knew Raziel liked it that way. It must be a brother thing. I thought, then laughed for thinking that and Wynter laughed too. “HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RAYNE!” She shouted. “Thank you!” I said. “I’m sorry about the mate bond... I know today would be a whole different type of day if things were a little different.” I said to her, surprised that I didn't feel the dull ache of the void when I talked about it. “I kn
The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 59
Chapter 59 I was exhausted. Dying, and then being reincarnated by The Shadows, really took its toll. I can tell you though, my mind was racing. I had Wynter back! Although I was still upset at Raphael, the hatred I was feeling before was gone. I couldn’t help but think The Darkness made it worse. Like it made everything seem like a bigger deal. Just the simple presence of The Darkness made the feelings of anger, grief, despair, and fury all worse, in order to get me to act on them... it worked, too. It was like they made my pain worse, so when I finally got relief, it almost felt like I would never get anything like that anywhere else again. Almost as if it forced me to use it as comfort, and tricked me into thinking that was the only way. I was lost in thought when Raziel took me into his arms. I felt a pulse of lightning run through my body. How did that happen? I no longer bore his beautiful crescent moon mark. Raphael had shattered it from my face using The Darkness. Raziel fel
The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 58
Chapter 58 (Rayne) I felt like I was floating. Strange... I thought. I swear I was just being hurtled through the ground, but this was a bit different. It was dark, pitch black. I was basically wandering around in the nothing. I could suddenly feel the icy chill to the bone of The Shadows, but I couldn't see or hear them. Was I dead? A pang of guilt flooded through me as I thought about Raziel, and all the pain I must have caused him. Even more so now, if I was dead. I couldn’t control The Darkness, but it was my own fault I let it in to begin with. I replayed the past few months in my mind and sighed out loud. I had been a complete and utter failure in so many ways. Allowing myself to be controlled by The Darkness, and even inviting it in... why the fuck would I do that? I felt so stupid for being so damn weak. I shivered and tried to rub my arms to keep them from getting any colder. It felt like The Shadows were surrounding me, but they were nowhere to be found. “Hello?” I said,
The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 57
Chapter 57 I watched in horror because I knew there was nothing I could do. Especially with The Darkness taking hold... they would literally be unstoppable together. Then, to my surprise, Rayne summoned her staff and slammed it into the ground, hard. It knocked me straight off my feet with a sound that was so loud it almost hurt my ears. It also sent Raphael flying across the arena away from her. Relief swept through me. “Good girl.” I said out loud, more to myself than anyone. Raphael came back and it looked like they were talking now. But then he turned our way, and I knew he was getting tired of the games. We locked eyes just as he sent two giant black fireballs hurtling our way. Alpha Drake dove out of the way and I materialized to the side, but Roman didn’t move. He was in shock, and there was no way I was getting to him in time. That’s when I saw Rayne materialize herself directly in front of him, taking the full brunt of both fireballs straight to her chest. My heart sank int
The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 56
Chapter 56 He didn’t even really have his bearings back before I threw both fans at him, hoping to connect with flesh once again. He materialized out of the way, but only a second too late as one of my fans sliced into his calf muscle. I smirked, and watched my fans act like boomerangs and fling right back into my hands. The Darkness healed him once more. Suddenly, to my surprise Raphael made a closed fist and flung my fans straight out of my hands and to him. He then hit them with a black fireball in midair, shattering them where he stood. This action sent blades and pieces of gold flying through the air. Now he was upping his game. It’s about goddamn time, I thought, as I slammed my hand downwards and produced a black bull whip that was covered in black flames. I flung the whip at Raphael, wrapping the end around his throat and yanking him down into the ground with one solid movement. I freed my whip from his neck with a hard jerk and went to hit him with another round, but he ro
The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 55
Chapter 55 As much as I didn’t want to see him, Raphael was honestly looking like a gorgeous dark God. I couldn't deny that I was attracted to him. It was impossible not to be. He had on a solid black suit with a silver suit vest and silver shoes. His dark hair was perfectly positioned on his head in a neat short cut. He never had a hair out of place. He had stubble on his chin, which made him look a little gruff. His silver eyes were solid black, as black as night. He was absolutely breathtaking in this form... but the second I saw him the rage just hit me. I also noticed a strange pull towards him, something that wasn’t there before. This was more of a sexual attraction, that was pissing me off and making my mark burn out of control. I could see that he was engulfed in The Darkness. It was writhing under his feet and flowing around him in waves, just like it had been when I let it in. But this time, it seemed as if my Darkness wanted to get to his Darkness. The pull was so strong
The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 54
Chapter 54 Alpha Drake was in his office talking to Roman. He looked up and I could see a brief flash of fear followed by worry, snake through his ocean blue eyes. My smile seemed to calm his mind though. “Hi Alpha!” I said excitedly. I ran up to him and threw my arms around him. He stood there for a minute in shock. I had never done anything like that before, especially not in front of another Wolf from the pack. I was a little worried what his reaction might be knowing he was a ruthless killer and all. But then he slowly wrapped me in a bear hug, calming my worries. My mark was burning out of control, which had me wondering if it knew people’s feelings for me. I wondered if it burned worse when they were in proximity as a warning, or if it just didn’t like Alpha Drake. I pulled away and locked eyes with Roman. I could see his face light up, but also a look of worry washed across it. “Rayne!” He said, then he grabbed me and threw me into a huge bear hug, causing the same type of r
The Reaver Chronicles: Raziel (Book 1) Chapter 53
Chapter 53 (Rayne) As crazy as it sounds, I was really missing my pack and pack life. The regularity of it all. The training and dealing with Alpha Drake, even. The past few months I’ve spent here with Raziel were amazing, there was no doubt about that. I have learned so much about myself and my powers. Plus, our relationship has been growing and getting better every day. I can’t deny that things have been wonderful. It’s so funny to me to see Raziel and not feel fear around him. I remember when he used to scare the ever-living shit out of me, and I feel like that wasn’t really that long ago. I had a brief flashback of him killing Eric and his fangs dripping with Eric's blood. I recalled seeing Eric's lifeless body on the floor. Then I heard the words he spoke to me. ‘No one may take your innocence but me.’ A shudder ran through me causing cold chills to run down my spine. I guess there was still a little fear, but not for my own life, at least. My overall experience here has been
