Chapter 41

Chapter 41Ramses lived in New Orleans on a large property just outside the city. He was always drawn to this place due to the copious amounts of magic and magical beings that resided here. The Witches to be exact. Everyone knows there are Witches in New Orleans. As we pushed through Ramses’ Bronze front gate to his home, I took into account the similarities. His front gate was adorned with a large intricate sun. Very similar to each of ours adorning our mark. As we wandered inside following the main path to his front door, I could see many other paths going around to the backyard and off to the sides. It was very similar to my home and my brother's homes as well. It seems when Haven had us picking out our home layouts, we all agreed on a lot of things. I tried mind linking Ramses again as we approached his front door, but it was no use, I couldn’t reach him. Ramses' front door was a large solid bronze door with black accents. We knocked first and then with no answer we pushed the d

Chapter 42

Chapter 42“Raphael, Raphael?” Ramses said, but I could barely make out my name being called as I started to come to. I had a blazing headache which was the first thing I noticed. I went to rub my eyes, but my hands were chained to the wall above my head… This being the second thing I noticed. I looked straight across from me, and I could see Ramses in the adjacent cell. “Dude, you look like you got hit by a bus.” Ramses cackled. “Fuck you, dude… But I do feel like I got hit by one.” I replied, using all the strength I could muster. I tried to mind link Raziel and Rowen with no luck. It seems as if I was in the same situation as Ramses now. “Raziel and Rowen are here somewhere.” I told him. My voice was hoarse and barely above a whisper. “How did you get here?” I asked. “Brother… Look, a man can’t deny what he wants or who he wants. And Haven just…” He started to say, but he stopped when I narrowed my eyes at him. “Ok, ok, I came to check on her. We literally just left her sweet ass

Chapter 43

Chapter 43“How was your day?” She asked me, sitting down on the couch in the foyer. I walked over and sat down by her. “Would you really like to know?” I asked her, knowing that my day was… Eventful, if you could call it that. I wasn’t sure just how much she would be ok knowing. I mean, being held captive in an old Necromancer castle by Cryomancers that ended up being old friends, which could have ended so much worse, was hardly a normal day for a Human. “Of course I do, why wouldn’t I?” She asked. Well, I guess it was time to gauge how much she could handle. “Well, the day started out with Raziel informing me that Ramses was missing. No one could mind link him, that is a form of communication we share from our Wolf sides. When he can't be mind linked that means something was suppressing his magic. So, naturally, we thought he was in danger.” I said, while watching her expression and making sure she was handling it ok. She seemed to be, so I continued. “We searched his home and cam

Chapter 44

Chapter 44My coven meeting went well. I updated everyone on the possible alliance with the Cryomancers and let them know I would have more details later. Once the meeting was over, I spoke with Atreyu. “The Necromancers think we killed their leader. I'm sure they want revenge. They are toying with me. Keep an eye on things around the covens until we can be sure the threat is neutralized.” I warned him. I would do the same. Before I headed home, I made a stop to Jerome’s coven. His was the closest to my home, and I stopped by there often. I wanted to make sure he knew of the possible impending threat of the Necromancers. With his coven being so close to my home he was right in the line of fire.I stepped through the front gates of his coven, causing all of the coven members to stop and stand at attention as I walked by. I never stopped them when they did this. It was ritual to them, and how they were taught. Who was I to change that? I made my way through the town and to Jerome’s he

Chapter 45

Chapter 45The second Raphael locked his beautiful silver orbs onto mine I could tell he knew what happened. I could see the hurt flood through his eyes, followed by anger. And not just any anger… This was complete and utter fury. His facial expression never changed, but his eyes gave him away. “How was your coven business?” I asked him, even though that’s not what I wanted to say at all. I had no choice but to act like nothing had even happened. I knew he could tell I wasn’t able to say anything else. He didn't say anything, he just grabbed me and pulled me into his arms. The lightning and fire surged through me, calming me. I wanted to burst out in tears, but my body wouldn't let me. I just hugged him, and I couldn’t even hug him tightly because I couldn’t act like anything was different.He was running his fingers through my crazy curls, an intimate action that was calming me down. Even though I seemed fine on the outside I was screaming inside. “I am going to fucking kill every l

Chapter 46

Chapter 46“The west? What the hell is over there?” I questioned, while raising one eyebrow at River. “Absolutely nothing, and maybe that’s the point?” He said back. “So, they haven’t been lurking here? Sending the Risen? Nothing strange like that?” I asked. “Nope, and we have had patrols guarding the grounds as well, just in case they tried to come back. But so far, nothing.” River explained. “Thank you, old friend.” I said to River with a deep bow, then I grabbed Roxy’s hand and we headed out.The west was a better lead than anything else I had before. I mind linked Atreyu. “Send troops to the west and the surrounding areas. If they see a Necromancer, I want it alive and delivered to me personally. Once that is done, kill the rest. No exceptions.” I snarled. “Yes sir.” Atreyu retorted, and I closed the mind link. I wouldn’t stop until every last filthy one of them was fucking dead. After we left River’s castle, and I was confident my men were searching the west for the Necromancers

Chapter 47

Chapter 47Atreyu materialized in front of me in my kitchen where I was watching Roxy finish dishing up our lunch. “Are you hungry, Atreyu?” Roxy asked. “Oh no, thank you though I am just fine.” He said back to her. She set a plate in front of me, but I didn’t touch it right away. “I need to interrogate the Necromancer. I plan to spend quite a bit of time down there figuring out everything I possibly can. I will need you to stay with Roxy while I'm away. I don’t care what she wants to do or where she wants to go, I need you with her. Understood?” I snapped at Atreyu. “Yes sir.” He replied. “Once I finish my lunch, I will call for you. I plan to start the interrogation immediately.” I said. He nodded and then vanished. Roxy and I ate in silence. I was too busy brooding on what I was about to go do and I'm sure she was just as stressed. “You’re not going to hurt her, are you?” Roxy’s soft voice infiltrated my ears, snapping me from my thoughts of torture and violence. “Well, it depend

Chapter 48

Chapter 48I returned to Jerome’s headquarters. “Do not let any harm come to her. I will be back tomorrow to continue my interrogation.” I said, then I turned and walked out. I walked through his coven ignoring everyone who stopped to stand at attention. My mind was elsewhere. How was I going to get the information needed from this woman without giving her what she wanted? These were the thoughts invading my mind. If I didn’t have Roxy, I would have given her what she wanted in an instant to get the information I needed. But things are different now. Me and Roxy aren’t together, but things are getting quite serious. I wouldn’t want to hurt her. I had to figure out a way to make this work.Once I got home, Atreyu said Roxy was in the bedroom. I thanked him and sent him on his way. As soon as I walked into my bedroom, I laid eyes on Roxy. She was sprawled out on my chaise lounge in an extremely sexy position. She got up from the chaise lounge at the foot of my bed and sauntered towards

Chapter 49

Chapter 49 Once I woke up, I had hoped this was all a bad dream. I quickly realized it was as real as Raphael lying next to me. The first thing that happened when he woke up was I tried to tell him what happened, and what came out instead was. “Good morning.” With a warm smile. This was so fucking frustrating. It was like I wasn’t even me. Anytime I tried to talk about the man or what happened, my body did something completely different. After multiple times of trying to get any inkling of what happened last night out to Raphael throughout the morning, I realized that I would be taking these secrets straight to his grave. A thought that made my heart ache terribly. The pit in my stomach was growing by the minute. The longer I am here with him, the higher possibility that I would succeed in killing him. I had made up my mind… I was going to leave. Run far away from this place… As far as I possibly could. Anything to prevent this terrible future from unfolding. I honestly couldn’t im

Chapter 50

Chapter 50(Raphael)Roxy seemed strange this morning, different than usual and a lot quieter. I chalked it off to our encounter last night. That was the first time we had done anything sexual really, and I wondered if maybe it had been a little too much for her... I mean, she definitely didn’t complain. But why would she? She said it was incredible. I did bite her though, without warning… Yea, that might have been a little much for a Human to comprehend. But I couldn’t help it… It just kind of happened. I wanted to ask her about it but decided against it. I knew she wasn’t able to talk freely from being Risen, and that could have been bothering her too. I was frustrated because I hadn’t gotten anywhere with the fucking Necromancer during our last interaction and I really had hoped that she would have given me something, anything. I needed to find the remaining Necromancers so I could find a way to cure Roxy. They had to know a way to reverse this shit. Turn Roxy back to Human. Wit
