The Reaver Chronicles: The Keepers (Book 5) Chapter 33
Chapter 33So I decided to manipulate her even more. I had already ruined anything we ever could have had, which, in this realm wouldn't have been anything... At least not with Master Rowen around. So what would it hurt? In order to open Pandora’s Box, you need two sacrifices. We have to start the ritual on our side with a spell and the amulet, then Ambrosia has to be the one to finish it. She has to use her powers to kill both myself and my brother. It has to be her, and we were going to be the sacrifices. Once we were both dead, the Box would open and I would have my revenge by releasing pandemonium onto this world. I may not be here to see it, but I would go to The Otherside. Once Pandora’s Box was open, The Others would start working on a way to trick Ambrosia into opening the portal to The Otherside. In hindsight, that may not work, but I’m sure there is another way to open the portal and they would find out. Once that happened I would be back, and my plan would be complete. Th
The Reaver Chronicles: The Keepers (Book 5) Chapter 34
Chapter 34I turned and looked at everyone lined up, ready to give their very lives, or at least fight until they couldn't fight any longer, to stop us. But actually, unbeknownst to them, to help us open the Box. The guilt was rising in my chest. I can't believe I'm second guessing this. My eyes locked straight onto Ambrosia, even though I was trying to purposefully look anywhere else but her. I could see the sorrow in her eyes and I knew she had come to terms with what she was going to have to do. I could see her pain and I wanted nothing more than to take it from her. I could fly… I could just give up the amulet and go. I could stay, I could give her the amulet and beg her to send me home. Beg her to come with me. I tried to hide the emotion on my face but I couldn't. It was too strong. I was in utter turmoil and I know she could see it. She could read me like an open book, she always had been able to once I opened up to her. I knew this was no different. She could see exactly wha
The Reaver Chronicles: The Keepers (Book 5) Chapter 35
Chapter 35(Ambrosia) I looked up at Dominik, standing there in the clearing. He was alone and his wings were out, lying gently down his back. He must have just flown here. I admired the way his wings glinted in the sun and I had the sudden urge to touch them. I recalled how soft they felt in my fingers, and the memories came flooding back through my mind from my time within my Box. I saw the look of surprise on Dominik’s face when he realized what I was wearing. I saw him scan my outfit and I saw a hint of pain across his face. He missed home. I knew he did, because I did too. And he had lived there a lot longer than I had. It was hard not to miss that place. It was so beautiful, especially at night. Although terrifying, with the never ending waves of monsters. Still, it was beautiful, nonetheless. Nothing here compared to over there. It was almost like a feeling that you couldn’t shake, just a feeling of things being different. The magic flowed through tha

Chapter 36I took his chin in my hand and raised his head so we were locking eyes. I was crying, all of this was just too much. I couldn't bear the thought of killing him and I couldn't bear the thought of merging the realms. I refused to release anything from my Box onto this realm. This was my home too. I could tell my tears were bothering Dominik but I didn’t mean to cry, I was just so full of emotion. It always bothered him when I cried. "Brosia, why are you crying?" He asked me, and he reached up to wipe a tear from my cheek. I fought the urge to hit his hand away, but I thought it would have more meaning if I let him wipe it. So I did. “You guys don't have to die. You don't have to do this! Is revenge really that important that you have to pull this realm into pandemonium over it? Dom, you know what the creatures are that reside within my Box. You know what kind of havoc they will wreck on this realm if you release them. You can take the higher path. You can let the anger go."
The Reaver Chronicles: The Keepers (Book 5) Chapter 37
Chapter 37I walked over to Ramses who was on his knees with silent tears streaming down his face. Raziel was kneeling next to him and Raphael on the other side of him. None of them were saying anything, they were just being there, being present for him. I knelt down in front of my brother, my closest family member, my best friend, and put my hand on his shoulder. He looked up at me slowly and I could see the absolute agony etched onto his handsome face. We locked eyes and I could basically feel his pain. I knew this had nothing to do with Ambrosia and the Angels. I could see the unmistaken look of loss in his eyes and I knew this had everything to do with Katrina. “I’m so sorry brother.” Ramses said through his tears. I took him in my arms while he wept. “I’m so sorry… Andres said the only way to open the portal to The Otherside was to make sure that he stayed alive. I panicked, I didn’t realize they weren’t opening that portal at all. It was a trick, and I almost caused them to wi

Chapter 38She jumped when she saw me unexpectedly. “Rowen, holy shit, you scared the fuck out of me.” Jade cried, grasping at her chest. I just stood in her doorway with my arms crossed, leaning against her door. She saw my eyes and instantly walked over to me. “Oh, you need to feed?” She asked, while running her fingers down my chest. “I do, but this isn’t a social call. I’m kind of in the middle of something... But I will make it up to you.” I purred. She moved her hair and got closer to me. I pulled her in and sank my fangs into her neck greedily. I drank a little more than I should have, but I would, of course, heal her afterwards. She let her hands wander while I was drinking and normally I wouldn't have minded but my mind was elsewhere tonight. I wasn't even paying attention when she full on grabbed my package, and I didn’t even react. Once I was done drinking I healed her and made sure her blood was replenished. “Thank you, doll.” I said, but before I left she grabbed me and

Chapter 39“Go pick a movie, and I’ll make some popcorn.” Domink said, and he wandered into the kitchen. I headed over to the movie collection. I swear we had watched every single one, but I saw one behind a stack that looked like it had fallen down behind, and was extra dusty. I assumed it had been forgotten about hiding clear back there. I fished it out, successfully knocking over the stack in front of it in the process. I threw it to the side and fixed the stack and then I went to turn and grab the movie again but Dominik already had it in his hand. “A haunting in Connecticut? I didn’t even know we had this movie?” He said curiously. I grinned at him. “Well you're lucky you have a damn Human here to find it then, yea?” I said playfully. He just narrowed his eyes at me. “I would have found it, eventually.” He shot back, with a smile. “Sure you would have, sure…” I said, rolling my eyes and jumping up to head over to the couch. He put the movie in and took his seat next to me. I mo
The Reaver Chronicles: The Keepers (Book 5) Chapter 40
Chapter 40I exhaled a breath I didn’t realize I was holding as Azrael flew out of my line of sight. “Well that was a crisis averted.” I said out loud, to no one. I needed to go visit Hilda while I was here. Her house was the last stop I planned to make, and I guess I was at the end of my trip. I started heading towards her house. I knew that it would be a little of a walk, I was a bit far from it. I swear I hadn’t been here that long with Azrael. It was daytime when we arrived, but I saw that the sun had already set and the bioluminescence was starting to peek through. I just kept walking, and I watched as the land transformed into a spectacular sight. I watched as the trees changed, the colored grasses and mushroom patches appeared. I saw the last inkling of daylight disappear behind the horizon and looked in awe at my realm and its sheer beauty. Just the thought of leaving this place had my stomach in knots. I wanted to stay here, forever. I knew I couldn’t, I had a life, a lover
