Cora's Point of View
The Wiccan shop didn't take long to get to but as we walked in the women behind the counter kept looking at us as they helped customers. Apparently the humans still like to dabble in magic even though they killed so many supernatural beings.
As we walked around waiting for the shop to become empty elder Rachel would randomly pick a book or object up. I followed the elder into a small dark room were i watched as elder Rachel picked up a very old book and open it. As I looked at the pages she was flipping through a women said, "can I help you?"
Both elder Rachel and I looked up. The women was beautiful. She was tall close to six foot, very slender and had bright red hair.
"I am looking for the owner of the shop," elder Rachel said.
The women smiled and said, "that would be me."
"Can we talk in private?"
"Of course. Follow me." The women began to walk away and we followed her. Elder Rachel kept the book in her hand. I looked over at the counter and the two women standing there watched us. I felt a shiver run down my spine and a bad feeling in my gut.
As we walked into a office down the hall from the shop the women sat down and signaled for us to do the same.
"My name is Lavinia. What can I do for you?"
I looked from Lavinia to elder Rachel. "My name is Rachel and I would like to know how you got your hands on this book?"
I looked at the women again and watched as she looked at the book. "Nice to meet you Rachel. That book like many of the others was saved during the great purge over one hundred years ago."
"Why would a book filled with magic be allowed to survive?" I asked knowing it could blow our cover.
Lavinia looked at me and said, "back when the purge first began those who supported the supernatural beings helped saved some of there treasures.
"Who was the original owner?" Rachel asked.
"A women known by the name of Maria. She was the head witch of her coven but you knew that already," Lavinia said.
"Why would you say that?"
"Because no one except a true witch can pick the book up. Now tell me Rachel and her friend should I consider you a friend or foe?"
"I would say friend. But what should I consider you?" Rachel said with an intense stare.
"Considering I help those understand magic i would say friend. What has brought you here?"
"I am elder Rachel former coven leader to the black shadow coven here on earth and I need the help of the last coven on earth."
"And former leader of black shadow coven what could you need help with?"
"Oh my goddess enough with the cat and mouse game," I yelled. "We are from Haven and need help. Either help us or we will leave."
I stood up and Rachel grabbed my hand. "Sit."
I sat back down and Rachel said, "like Cora said we need help in Haven and not just any help but the coven here on earth. Can you get me in contact with them?"
The women stood up and walked over to the painting of a herself on the wall and stared at it. "Why should the coven help those who abandoned them?"
"Each supernatural being was given a vision of where to go to get to Haven Lavinia. With the hunters on everyone's tails many were left behind. To many lives were lost because of mans fear. Any supernatural being left behind can come back with us but right now Haven is under attack."
"Attack from what?" She asked as she looked at Rachel with tears in her eyes.
"A dark witch has raised and is taking over Haven. If we do not do something Haven will no longer be a peaceful and safe place for those who need it."
"If Haven is so peaceful then why did she go dark?"
"Because my mate use to be her mate but she rejected him. He saved me and in doing so we became mates but she could not except that and went dark. She has captured my mate and harming those around her."
"Why can't you stop her?"
"Because she is my daughter," elder Rachel said with a sad and disappointed look on her face.
"I will speak to the coven but I can not guaranteethey will help you. You may go now and they will get ahold of you," Lavinia said as she walked over to the door and opened it.
Rachel stood up, placed the book on the desk and walked towards the door. I followed behind her. As we walked out of the room I said, "shouldn't we give them our information?"
"No. They will now have my energy signature and can find me."
"Oh"
Meanwhile in Haven Zack was screaming for Lenny and when she opened the door she said, "what is all this commotion for?"
Zack gave her a small smile and said, "I will become your mate but under one condition."
"And what is that?"
"You allow Cora and my unborn child to live."
Lenny stood there for a moment and then smiled. "Deal."
She approached Zack and he opened his arms. As he embraced her and then sealed the deal with a kiss he could feel his heart break and the disgust in his stomach but he would do anything for the women he loved and his unborn child.
