Chapter: 8. A Different Type of hunger Kane's POVI move to the door of the punishment room and hold the handle to pull it open. For a second I pause due to the thought nagging at the back of my mind. What if Delilah is a warlock? What if the Ultima wants her as one of his many warlock sacrifices? A strange and unwelcome sensation seizes my heart. I don't want history to repeat itself. Delilah must comply with this investigation. It's for her own good or she might just lose her life. I pull the door open and go in search of Ezekiel, my beta. He's in the training room with three sentinels. They give a slight bow on seeing me and I dismiss them."General," Ezekiel calls to me.I waved him to the boxing ring for a practice match. We put on our gloves and step up to fight. I need to expel this negative energy, and fighting is the surest way I get to relax my mind. Ezekiel throws me a punch and I dodge. I send another one flying his way. He squats and attempts to deck me in the neck. I block his hand and push him off. "What'

Chapter: 7. Love is TortureKane"The more you keep pushing me to her, the more I'll resist. Yes, I dreamt about her but it means nothing. This mating will never happen. I have no business with petty emotions like love," I say inwardly to Alexander."So if I stop, you'll give it a rethink?" He persuaded."Nothing will ever change my mind.""Then do it for me. I want her wolf, Ashley. The mate bond serves to strengthen us."I close my eyes in frustration. Alexander has been bugging me on this issue for days now. I wish I could separate from him so he can have her as much as he wants. But he's a worthy ally in battle; I can't do away with him. Normally, we come to a compromise on disagreements, but this time I'm not changing my mind. A knock sounds on the door and Nora steps in with Delilah following behind. My eyes remain fixed on her as she stands behind Nora. "You may leave, Nora," I say without taking my gaze off Delilah. She looks better than before. Her silky black hair falls behind her back, arranged to

Chapter: 6. LongingDelilah's POVI wake up wanting more of his touch. This is what I've always longed for, this connection, this feeling, overwhelming, coursing through my body like an uncontrollable wave. Now all I can think of, is General Kane. I've lost all focus on everything else, including the sickness they say I have. Nora trips over a metal container on the floor, and it draws my attention back to her and Dr Rogers in the room. Just one night with him and now he's all I can think of. All my life, I thought I'd never meet my mate; I thought my wolf was gone. But she's here and he's here. It's like all my dreams came through in one single day. The mate bond heightens my senses and I'm aware of General Kane more than ever. It's strange because I've never thought of him in such a manner. I never even dreamed I would be this close to him, this connected. It frightens me to some extent. I mean, this is General Kane we're talking about, the executioner. He is unflinchingly ruthless, and how he touc

Chapter: 5. Healing touchKane's POV Either Delilah must be a virgin or she's incredibly weak to match my energy. Still, I kiss her. I kiss the hell out of her because I don't want her to die. Even if it means having sex with her, I will. She needs to be alive. I need to find out why she's immune to my powers, why the Ultima wants her dead, and what makes her so special. I hold up her face to mine to avoid our mouths slipping from each other. She is barely able to hold up her head but I give her the support she needs and kiss her slowly. Softly. I don't stop. With my other hand, I trace down her shoulders and hold her hand. It's freaking cold, like ice. I separate my lips from hers and look into her eyes. They trail down to my lips. "More..." the soft voice of her wolf calls to me again. I need to switch things up. I need to make her feel me as much as she can in this state. But how do you make love to an almost unconscious woman? My eyes immediately move down to her legs. The previous night sh

Chapter: 4. Kiss of life Kane's POV"My mate is wounded," Alexander says within me. Suddenly, all the strange feelings vanish from my body. Wounded? "Yes, wounded. She can barely speak right now. We need to help her."I withdraw from Delilah and she looks down in embarrassment. I need to do something to cover up for my awkward behaviour. "Since you aren't comfortable with me, Nora will deal with you tomorrow."Her eyebrows raise slightly in fear. This is not the effect I wanted on her. But it's better than having her think I'm sexually attracted to her. I'm not. And I strongly believe Alexander is confusing empathy for love. Love is something I've banished from my heart a long time ago. There is no love in this world, just survival and loyalty. I frown at her before turning around and leaving for my room. "You should go softly with her if you want her wolf to heal," Alexander says. "I would like to address this, Alexander. We have no time for unnecessary feelings okay? Don't let Delilah be a distractio

Chapter: 3. Touchy Kane's POV There's something strange about Delilah. She's not like the other wolves I've met. Why did my Alpha command not work on her? Is she under some sort of protection? I continue to pace about the monitor room, wondering at the new occurrence. No one except the Ultima and my stepbrother can withstand my Alpha commands. Something is definitely not right with Delilah. And the way she defied my orders - direct, and with so much audacity - it fuels my rage even more. I look down at the CCTV camera footage. There wasn't even the faintest glow in her eyes when I tried to compel her. "Xavier! Xavier!" I call out to one of the omegas working for me and he runs in. I want to test my powers on him but an omega is an easy target. "Call me Nora and my beta, Ezekiel."A few moments later, Nora and Ezekiel are standing in the room with me. I face Ezekiel who is unaware of what I'm about to do. I speak to him. "Leave the army quarters and stay in the pack house for tonight. Uh... Stamp
