Final Chapter (First Ending)

Numbly, she looked to the Raven Mocker.

"I have set you free. I cannot influence you any longer. You must choose which path to walk. Darkness or Light."

The Raven Mocker was filled with... nothing. He was still shocked from the broken imprint.

He didn't trust her anymore.

But he still loved her.

"Stevie Rae. If I choose Darkenss, what will happen?"

"Your wings will be restored, but at a price. To prove that you have chosen Darkness, you must kill me. With no regret."

"What about Light?"

"A miracle of love will occur, also for a price. You must kiss me."

"How do you know this?"

"Nyx came to me last night, before I tried to find you. She asked me to give you a chance at a different life."

"I cannot forget the pain you forced me to go through, Stevie Rae. I cannot forget that I love you either. I choose Light."

The Raven Mocker then rose and walked slowly to Stevie Rae. He then gently cupped her face in his hands and kissed her. He tried to put all of his love in that kiss to prove to Stevie Rae that he had chosen Light and that he truly loved her.

Behind them a voice said,"Rephaim, I am glad that you have chosen the Light. Please come here."

The Raven Mocker stood and walked over to the beautiful goddess of the night.

"You have chosen the path of love, for Stevie Rae. Therefore, I believe you have earned a transformation. I cannot make you fully human, but during the night you will walk the earth. During the day, you will have flight as a raven. Does the idea catch your interest?"

"Of course, Nyx. Thank you for giving me another chance."

"The first was blown by your father. You were only doing your duty as a son and following orders. Are you ready?"

"Yes."

Nyx began to chant an ancient spell then hugged Rephraim.

"My son, blessed be."

There was pain.

Not as much as the imprint breaking, but from his bones readjusting to his new human form.

And then it was over.

"Welcome to your new life. Now go to her."

He didn't have to.

Because she ran to him.

"I knew you would choose Light."

When she kissed him, it tasted like freedom.

Finally done! Sorry it took me so long, but I was having some problems.

Thanks to all of my fans :3

House of Night belongs to P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast, but the story line belongs to me.

If you didn't like this ending, don't worry. I've got another one in mind ;3
