The Love Of An Alpha

Chapter 38- The Coven

Zoey's POV

I stood shocked and frozen on the sidewalk unable to move as all my energy was channeling into my racing mind. Tina was alive; he had confirmed that even if he didn't want too. A smile grew quickly across my face as hope coursed through me at the idea of being cured before the baby was born. I could be saved.

I woke up the morning with a smile for the first time in months. I rolled over and swallowed the pill Molly had given me. As I swallowed the small white tablet a nervous feeling washing over me as I pounded whether or not this was harming the baby. Though this baby was a surprise I knew that I could never do anything that would harm it. Thinking about this made me worried when suddenly a surge of nausea hit me, leaping from my bed barely making it to the bathroom in time I threw up into the toilet. After a minute or two had passed and I began to feel better I leant back onto my heels and rested my head on the wall. Morning Sickness had begun.

"Zoey?" Cindy's voice called from the other side of the door. "Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, just fine," I whispered. I wish Ethan was here, comforting and caring for me as I brought our child into the world. This unwelcome thought sprang into my mind, and a surge of sadness washed over me. We should be doing this together as husband and wife not miles apart and completely alone.

I stood up slowly and opened the door before slowly closing it behind me and making my way towards my suitcase. I quickly changed before making my way downstairs to the same place I encountered the man last night. Taking a deep breath, I drew on the dark power that laid within me in hopes of tracking the mystery man who had confronted me. Closing my eyes and consecrating I quickly felt the thick, slow-moving feeling of my magic liquefied inside my blood. Focusing all my attention on the man from last night, the details I can remember, his voice, the shape in the darkness. Suddenly my eyes though still closed, they a lit with colour as a bright orange trail appeared in my mind where I guessed the man from last night went. Hastily I opened my eyes as a grin spends across my face. Reaching into my back pocket, I clasped my phone and pulled it out, dialling Cindy's number. It rang twice before she picked up.

"Yellow." Her voice sang through the phone.

"Hey, I'm downstairs on the footpath. I have a lead on my Aunt. Meet down here." I rushed out.

"Be right down," She replied quickly. I hung up the phone and looked around to see if anyone was around. Confident that I was alone I hurriedly conjured a map.

"Appearist navagatist." The words rolled off my tongue quickly as they appeared in my mind. Shocked at my ability cast a spell I didn't even know I was only more shocked my the successful nature of it. A compass materialised in my hand, no exactly what I was intended but I watched amazed at the needled ticked and twitched finally setting on NE.

"Zoey. Hey." Cindy said from behind me scarily me slightly making me jump.

"You ready to go?" I said smiling as hope alit in me.

"Yeah of course. It is the reason we are here isn't it." I didn't reply just smiled as I quickly walked in the direction of the orange line in my memory as the compass and my tracking spell alined. We walked for nearly an hour before stopping at the edge of town, a vast meadow of green grass hugged the edge of the road.

"Once again why couldn't we have taken the car?" Cindy groaned.

"Because I am not sure how well my tracking spell would work in the car," I explained once again.

"Couldn't we have tried?" Cindy complained.

"Shh Cindy. I think we are here." I barked. The orange tracking spell and the compass but pointed towards the meadow.
