Delilah's POV

I wake up to the soft breathing of General Kane on my neck. His arms are draped around my body and it's a bit hot being entangled with him. But I stay in his embrace a little longer, looking closely at his handsome face. This is the first time I'm seeing him this peaceful.

If only this moment could last forever, I would do anything to have that. But we're stuck in the human world and need to find a way out.

I carefully slip his hand away from my body and stand up from the bed. La

    Kane's POVNothing seems good about this place. I can't place my hand on it, but there's some sort of strange, magical signal I'm sensing from this bunker.I use the light from my phone to brighten my way as I walk further into the bunker. I tread carefully not letting myself get fooled by the strange ambience of the place.The tunnel leads straight ahead, boring with no signs of activity. The walls are made of black bricks, the same as the floor. I sense the magic getting stronger and I stop. This is warlock territory and a secret bunker at that. Of course, there will be boobytraps.I take out a gold necklace we had retrieved from Delilah the first time she came here. It was a purple amulet that dropped from her clothes when I grabbed her back in the woods the first day we met.I hold it out in front of me as some means of identification. If the magic senses warlock energy I believe it will disarm whatever attack that has been prepared.I walk further into the tunnel."This place is

  • Fated to the war general    71. Warlock Territory

    Kane's POVI make my way back to the Blood Moon pack as fast as I can. Knowing the type of person the Ultima is, I'm sure he has sent his soldiers to ambush me on the way. I travel across the kingdom and get to blood moon pack unscathed. On arriving, I head straight to the Alpha Quarters. Ezekiel is already at the entrance waiting for me. "Sir! The car is ready," He says, standing beside a black vehicle."I need to get something from my study first." Inside the house is quiet as I climb up to my study. There's a red leather-covered book in a box on one of my bookshelves. I retrieve it, dust it and take it with me to the car. On getting to the front passenger's seat, Ezekiel is already seated there waiting. "I'll need to go alone this time, Ezekiel." Initially, he frowns in response before agreeing and stepping out of the car. The driver leaves the car too and I take over his position behind the wheel. No one knows where I'm headed. And I want it that way. I can't let another pe

    Delilah's POVVivian quickly rushes to me and holds me as I'm about to land on the floor."Delilah, are you okay?" she asks in panic.I place my hand on my head, trying to stabilise myself. What the hell is this? Genevieve comes to me, looking as surprised as Vivian."I never expected your father to hex the book. Let me get you something to clear that up."She leaves and returns shortly with a green bottle in her hands. She puts it to my lips and the sour liquid pours into my mouth.The drink makes me want to throw up. She quickly removes the bottle from my lips and watches me silently. My eyes begin to clear gradually and Vivian gets me some water to drink."No, don't give her that yet, it will dilute the effect of the drug," Genevieve says, stopping her.In less than a minute, I regained full consciousness. "What was that?" I ask Genevieve."Some magicians cast spells on their belongings to prevent malicious people from having access to them.""But I'm not a malicious person," I cou

    Delilah's POVThe flesh on my palm is a dark shade of pink, coupled with the painfully burning feeling inside. Vivian stares at me like I've grown two heads. Her eyes grow wide in shock and her mouth hangs open. The fire from the burning wood has been extinguished and the smoke trails in the air. I open my mouth to speak but I'm hit with a sudden dizzy spell that sends me reeling backwards. Vivian quickly catches me and holds me in place. "Come on, let's go inside." She leads me to the bedroom and we retire for the night. The next morning, the sound of my room door opening wakes me up. Cecile walks in carrying a bag. "Good morning, Delilah. How are you feeling?" "Better," I reply, sitting up in bed. "Off to somewhere?" "Yes, I need to visit Denise before she starts to worry about us. It's getting hard to keep convincing your employer that you're still sick. She's asking to visit you in the hospital." I let out a tired sigh. "I'll just resign so she doesn't start looking into m

    Delilah's POVThe palms of my hands have become red from placing them near the burning wood. Vivian continues to mutter some strange words, standing in front of me but keeping her distance from the flames. My legs hurt from standing for too long. "It's too hot, Vivian," I complain, wanting to withdraw my hands. She quickly drags it back into place. "The powers of a warlock are deeply rooted in fire. Your soul burns with an eternal fury that not even the werewolf spirits can snuff out. So you need to believe it's still there," she encourages me.I look back down into the dancing flames. The red and orange glow of the fire cast it's shadow on my body as I stand too close to it.Sweat trickles down my face and my temperature continues to rise. I breathe out through my mouth just to expel some of the heat. Vivian touches my head with the back of her palm."Just keep on going you're almost there."My throat feels parched. "I need water," I tell Vivian, but she refuses to give me any to d

    Delilah's POVI walk around the room frantically. General Kane? Arrest? No, it can't be. I pace back and forth, my heart racing in my chest. How do I help him out when we're worlds apart?"Vivian? Let's go back to the oracle. Let's meet Genevieve. She should be able to send me to Avalon."Vivian continues holding onto the orb, trying to activate it. I call out to her but she doesn't respond."Vivian!" I call loudly and she turns to me, startled. Her eyes are widened and her breathing is heavy. She lowers her gaze and her eyes dart left and right like someone in deep thought.She looks up at me. "I think I have a solution but it's going to be quite dangerous."I quickly walk up to her and hold her hand in distress. "Anything, please. I just need him to be safe.""You'd have to go through the portal but I doubt you'd be able to survive it. The last person who tried ended up dead."My heart sinks. "Dead?" I say in a low voice.Her eyes crinkle with fear as she stares at me. I don't want
