All Chapters of The Coven of the Crow and Shadows : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

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

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

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

We’ve been back in the coven’s realm for about a week now. It was easier to get back into the swing of things here than I thought it would be. I had come to miss the creepy realm. It still weirds me out, but it’s home. I’m safe here. Best of all, I'm accepted here. Zane has already started making arrangements for us to get an apartment. I’m not sure if it’s something that is built and added to the mansion or if it’s already built. I don’t know, but I don’t care because we get our own place either way. While coming back was easier, I'm struggling to process stuff. I’m overly moody and irritable. My anxiety is sky high so much, so my appetite has been all wonky. Certain foods make me want to barf my guts up. It’s weird, but the smell or sight of eggs suddenly makes me want to hurl. I’ve been a little nauseous but not throwing up, t

Liam and I are meeting with the boss today. I hope she isn’t a total bitch today. Our boss is a bitch, but she is the one who is going to make the realm belong to only the supernaturals. The humans are weak and take up too much space. They fear us and would have every supernatural killed if they could. They are worthless beings that serve no purpose. Not even the vampires have use for them anymore, well, the ones that are left, that is. Humans convinced supernaturals to help them hunt vampires, saying they were a danger to their race. Once I kill Ari and break the curses on my people, we will be strong enough to help the boss achieve her goal of a humanless world. As Liam parks the car outside the cute cottage, I notice Ghost pull up on his crotch rocket. That idiot, I can’t believe Zane pulled a fast one on him. Ari and Zane fucked up the plan badly. Those humans were supposed to die. It
