Stevie Rae pov
Everything in the world seemed to stand still, just me and my perfect rephaim. Just then, a silver glimmer glided across the crystal water, and we let go of our hands immediately before spinning round to meet the reflection. I recognised Nyx immediately, and i heard rephaim suck in a breath. Nyx smiled and when she spoke, her voice sounded like tinkling of bells. "My daughter, i am here to bring you pure happiness"...
Rephaim's pov
It was obvious who this woman was, it was the goddes whom's realm my father fell from, Nyx. I knew how much Stevie Rae adored her, by the way her lips curved up as soon as she saw her. When i heard Nyx's words, a part of me jumped. I wanted Stevie rae to be happy, for her happiness, is my happiness. But the goddess's next words stopped me still. "i am aware that your price to the Black bull was to be bound to the humanity of- " she turned to me and her eyes bored into mine "-this raven mocker"

I felt a lot of emotions as i listened to Nyx explain how to turn Rephaim human. "I will tell you how to change him, but it will be his choice to leave darkness for him to be able to change. You must also know that he may not be able to lose his wings, but you just need to let him feel and be humane as possible at midnight, let him be a average teenage boy."Nyx took my hands in hers and smiled "make the right choice daughter,i know how much he means to you." And then, surprising me, she took rephaim's hands and wrapped them around mine. "Love her," she said "always protect your high preistess, there is great dangers coming."
Rephaim's pov
"My father" was my simple reply. And with that i felt a jolt as my eyes blazed red again. My father had returned to this realm . My fingers tightened around Stevie Rae and i turned towards her. I felt her happiness through our imprint. "Zoey's back again Rephaim!" She hugged me so hard, until she pulled back suddenly.

The pain of the possibility that i couldn't be with Rephaim made me realised how much i really love him. His heart felt the same as he dropped my hand a whispered "we can't be together. This is the end. Goodbye." and with that he unfolded his wings, but i stopped him just in time and kissed his cheek. "We will find a way to be together" i assured both of us, "meet me here tomorrow at midnight." "Please." Then he turned away and flew away, leaving me confused and utterly heartbroken.
