8. A Different Type of hunger

last update Last Updated: 2025-09-12 03:11:26

Kane's POV

I 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.

  • Fated to the war general    16. Ecstasy

    DelilahFor a man of his status, I expected something rough, hard. But his kiss is light. At first, I'm thrown off guard, not expecting his actions. But as the seconds pass I try to get used to it. This is what I've always wanted. I don't want to make it awkward between us. General Kane pauses and looks into my eyes, searching for a reaction. His hands remain on my shoulder and I fear he would take them off. So I cover the gap between us and kiss him back. Thankfully, he doesn't resist, and our lips move together, sucking, licking, dancing to a sweet rhythm. One of his hands moves from my shoulder to my neck as he pulls me by the waist, closer to himself. His kiss becomes deeper, and I find it hard to keep up. He pulls my hair from behind, giving him more access to my neck as he moves lower. He trails hungry kisses down to my chest, stopping at the V-neck of my red shirt. He looks up into my eyes again, seeking consent, and I nod, agreeing to this, to everything he wants to do to

  • Fated to the war general    15. No Other Choice

    KaneI walk away from Delilah as quickly as I can. This isn't happening. I can't let myself lose. I made a decision and I must stick with it. Moving up the stairs leading to the main entrance of the Alpha Quarters, I call Nora on my phone. "Nora?" I say when she picks up. "Take Delilah to the training room. Ensure no one sees you." "Yes, sir," Nora replies and the line goes flat. I move straight to my room and lock the door behind me. My mind is bombarded with thoughts of Delilah's body and how soft it was when we touched. I shut my eyes, trying to dispel the thoughts, but it only gets worse. I pick up a bottle of whiskey and try to drown my thoughts in it. In a matter of minutes, I become tipsy and lose focus. I sit on my chair and let the wine take control. I don't trust myself to keep her out of my mind. Not when there's an evident mate bond between the two of us. Hours later when I wake up, I go to check on the status of things. It's already evening and Ezekiel has rounded u

  • Fated to the war general    14. Temptation

    KaneFor the past ten minutes, Delilah has been practising her kicks on the tree. The sun set an hour ago, and it's already dark down here in the woods. Delilah is skilled but lacks strength in her movements. With her current condition, any werewolf with minimal training can beat her in a fight. She's omega-level strong, or even less than that.I stand up from the tree stump I've been sitting on. "Let's call it a day."Delilah shakes her head. "No, I'm not satisfied with my training for today.""You can continue tomorrow. It's not safe for you to be out here at this hour." She stops and turns to me with an eye roll. "You don't have to stay here with me if you don't want to." "Considering the situation of things, you can't be out here on your own. Let's go inside."She lets out a sigh, finally agreeing as she follows me back to my quarters. Nora attends to her needs for the night while I handle issues regarding the pack's security. After calling for Ezekiel, I go in to get a shower

  • Fated to the war general    13. Training With The General

    DelilahShocked is an understatement to how I feel about meeting General Kane here. Immediately I see him underneath the water, I rise to the surface and swim to the shore.Initially, I thought I was going to have a private moment to think. But General Kane's presence has just ruined everything. Who am I kidding? He said this was his personal spot. It's bad that I also find it comfortable here. He lifts his head out of the water and looks at me with a frown. "I told you not to come here." Ignoring him, I continue putting on my clothes. Deep down, I wish I could disappear from his sight with the snap of my fingers. Before I can finish dressing, he pulls himself out of the pond. Beads of water roll down his chest onto his torso. For a second I can't help but stare at him.His sharp green eyes catch mine and I look away shyly. General Kane walks up to me and I feel like running away. What is this temptation? I never asked for this. He gets closer to me and I turn to walk away. He take

  • Fated to the war general    12. There Is A Problem

    KaneThe automated steel doors of the army quarters slide open as I approach them. Inside the conference room, Ezekiel is standing beside the huge monitor screen displaying a map of Avalon, our kingdom. "What's the status report?" I ask, walking over to him. "A hundred and fifty-three rogues have escaped the facility. Thirty of them attacked our pack last night and the rest are reported to be heading in our direction."I look closely at the map. A red sign outlining our borders continues to flash on the screen. It's a signal indicating a breach. "They're not so far anymore. Are there any curables among them?""They're all curables. From the look of things their attack was planned and not as a result of their degrading psych." I scoff. "Even with a distorted sense of reality they have succeeded in forming a union." "Their hatred for you proves to be a strong driving force." I give Ezekiel a knowing look and he shrugs. "The rogues we confiscated yesterday h started their treatment

  • Fated to the war general    11. It's Not You, It's Me

    DelilahI open my eyes to a dimly lit room. A throbbing pain courses through my head and I sit upright, holding it. Beside me, General Kane sits with his eyes closed. My eyes widen in alarm when I see him shirtless. His chest and abdominal muscles are well-toned, and I feel like running my fingers over them. Realising myself, I slowly move away from him and look around the room. Why are we here? And where is this place? General Kane opens his eyes and turns to me with a look of concern. "How are you feeling? Does your arm still hurt?"My arm? I look down at my left arm to see it tied with General Kane's shirt. I look up into his gaze again. "It hurts a little," I reply and ask, "What happened?""You turned into a warlock.""What? That has never occurred before.""I'm not sure this is the first time. But whatever it is we will figure it out. You don't have to worry."I shift my attention back to the room. Kane stands up and goes to check the monitors. I continue staring at him and
