Divine Awakening Read online

Page 7


  Taking the Sinew in one hand, she placed the dark one in the same palm, the two stones touching. She closed her fist around them and squeezed. After she’d muttered a few words in Latin, multi-colored light shone from between her fingers. Then it stopped.

  When Hecate opened her hand, there was one larger stone in her palm. She slipped it from around the hounds’ necks and placed it around her own. “I guess you two would like to stay?”

  They nodded and said at the same time, “Yes, Mom. They kind of grew on us.”

  Hecate laughed. “Very well.” She faced the TV and talked to Noah. “The Dark Divine are no longer controlled by the Sinew, dark or otherwise. They are, however, under my protection, as is all magickin. They no longer need to keep hidden.”

  Noah offered a warm smile. “I will pass on the word.”

  Scanning the room, Hecate smiled. “Take care, my children.” Then she dematerialized.

  Desiree sank into the sofa. Her eyes drifted shut a moment before a warm hand cupped her cheek. Opening her lids, she met Lex’s stare. He raised his brows and said, “Let’s get Mathew and go home.”

  “Where is home?”

  “Your home in the Oceanway Coven.”

  Love filled her heart.

  No more running.

  No more lies.

  She was going home. With her son and mate.

  Framing Lex’s face in her hands, she kissed him, allowing her lips to linger on his longer than she’d intended. She pulled back to stare into his chocolate gaze with its rivers of red. “I love you.”

  Instantly, he lifted her off the couch and crushed his mouth to hers. “I love you, too.”

  “Let’s go home.”

  Note To from the author

  Thank you so much for reading and following The Divinities series. I hope you loved reading their stories as much as I did writing them. While Divine Awakening is the finale of the series, you haven’t seen the last of them or their families. I plan to write the stories of the witches and magickin of the Maxville Coven later in 2017, maybe early 2018.

  Thank each one of my readers, editors, admins, and friends for continuing to support me with words of encouragement and love. Without you, The Divinities, Ashwood Falls, and my other books would be possible. Lots of love to you all.

  Brightest Blessings,

  Lia Davis
