Chereads / Badass Witch / Chapter 61 - Phoenix

Chapter 61 - Phoenix

Eva POV

I was between Damon's arms. His one hand was under my head and the other hand was over my waist. He was still sleeping and I could hear his sweet breath running on my hairs reaching in my ear racing my hormones. I was all naked and so was he. This was exactly the morning I wanted. Between warm arms, feeling cozy and safe. This defines my ultimate happiness and I will be making a huge decision today. I turned around and I met those eyes. The eyes were open and contemplating over an issue. I took some time to understand that he was awake too so I simply asked,

"since when are you up?"

" I never slept", he said casually.

I knew what he was thinking all this time. I gently raised my head and met his lips to kiss him gently. He kissed me back and tightened his grip on my waist but he wasn't smiling. I wanted to see love in his eyes but there was no love just grief,

"you aren't happy", I said.

"I am the happiest man on this earth than you ever know", he replied.

He was clearly lying so I removed his hand from my waist and got up holding the sheet against my boobs. I got up and said looking at the wall angrily,

"you should atleast say something that matches your words"

I was about to get up when he held my hand and pulled me closer and held me tight. He looked deep in my eyes with expectations and an explanation that had no words. I know what he wanted but that won't make me happy. We had just started living a life and there was no end.

"Damon.... I want to be here with you and for that I have to leave this phoenix traits. I can't be the leader of the coven and the wife of a vampire plus a werewolf at the same time", I said explaining myself.

Actually that wasn't an explanation, it was a direct decision that messed his mind up more. He clearly didn't sleep the whole night so it was obvious for his mind to be in an unconscious state but I had a beautiful sleep and I was aware of what I want with a fresh mind in the morning. He got up this time and I didn't stop him. He wrapped his lower body with a towel and looked at me with disappointment. I got up from the bed too but I left myself naked. I stood up naked in front of him and he held his head as if he is so frustrated and irritated watching me like that but I was shameless to cover myself up.

"what is it Damon.... why don't you look at me as your wife?"

"because you are changed and you are not the same woman I loved. You were compassionate and had empathy back then but now..... could you please cover yourself?" He said.

"I am not changed" I protested.

"oh really, then let me remind what happened yesterday... I killed a teenager of your coven and you didn't even mention about it, instead you are grateful to me for what happened to her", Damon said.

He was right ofcource. We lost that girl and her father was crying helplessly. The entire coven is seeking revenge and I am here with a reason of being in love with this guy who had once burnt their houses to abduct me. I was speechless and had nothing to say. I just raised my brow and stated,

"I have made my decision" and I walked to the bathroom. I got fresh and then went towards the coven. Damon was in the living room when I left the house but he didn't say a word and neither did I. However, I was going to be abused and harassed by my own people soon so I will be needing some strength. I walked towards Damon and lifted his cheek. I kissed his lips swallowing them and then walked out.

When I reached there, the angry cold rage filled eyes were staring at me. They had expected me with a head in my hand but instead I was here with hickie on my neck.

" you are a cheater", the boyfriend cried loudly.

I had no words and nothing to out front as a proof of my innocence. I was completely guilty and agreed to everything they said.

" bring back Noman" I said.

I didn't hesitate and that's all that these people need.

" we will kill you after that" one of the witch popped out of the crowd to warn me.

" we will see about that later", I said.

I took a blade and cut my palm and dropped my blood in a bowl. I handed it to the coven and said them to move forward with the procedure. They will do the spell in a full moon day so that they can extract the huge power of moon. Till that I am the Phoenix but I can't live here. I said with my utmost grief,

" I am sorry for your loss but this will keep on going if I live here. Long time ago, teh entire coven was burnt to ashes including my parents because of me and now, people are losing their life because the devil is my husband and anyone who will dare to object me will be killed."

That sounded more like a warning but I had to say it. I finally said sorry, bowed my head in shame and walked out back to the villa....
