LOGINDELILAH Six months later... “Vivian, we are going to be late if you don't come out of the shower!” The response I received was some warbled sound that echoed through the closed door. I rolled my eyes in exasperation before folding the rest of my jeans into my suitcase. Luckily, I had forced Vivian to pack the previous night, or else we would have been late today. It took me thirty minutes to finish packing all my stuff and then, Vivian stepped out of the bathroom. I barely turned around to see my friend standing in her birthday suit so I jerked back in surprise. “What the hell?” I gasped, clutching my chest. “Did you not see the towel in the bathroom?” Vivian gave me an unapologetic smirk before walking towards towards her clothes scattered all over the bed. “Yeah, I saw it,” she replied, pulling her shirt over her head. “But why would I need to be modest when we are just here?” I opened my mouth to reply when I picked up some sounds approaching down the hallway. I didn't ne
DELILAHJust when Caspian’s monstrous form was lunging toward me with his claws raised, something suddenly exploded across the platform. A massive black wolf slammed into him from the side with enough force to shake the ground. The impact sent both of them crashing away from me, rolling across the ground in a violent fight of teeth and claws.That was when I finally saw the wolf that saved me.The black wolf moved with brutal precision, snapping its jaws, forcing Caspian back with every strike. Even in this chaos, there was some familiarity that echoed through my very chest.My breath caught at the sight. “Viktor,” I whispered, disbelief crashing through me. Relief hit me so hard my knees almost gave out. Here he was, alive and strong, fighting for me and for all the lives in the Vyrclaw Pack.I thought he had abandoned me, but I was wrong. He came back for me again. He always did.My heart twisted violently as I watched him fight Caspian, their bodies colliding again and again. Vik
DELILAHAfter seven moons, it was finally the day of Caspian's mating ceremony. The whole town was buzzing with celebration. Laughter echoed through the streets as music played from every corner, people gathering in clusters to dance, talk, and enjoy the moment. Shop doors stayed closed, not because they had to, but because no one wanted to be inside when everything was happening out here. The air felt warm and alive, filled with excitement and a quiet sense that something important was about to unfold.But my skin had been ridden with goosebumps since the sun rose to the sky. The entire Moon Temple was now empty since I sent down the forest to celebrate with the rest of the pack. It was only time they were allowed to be so carefree, and I did not want restrict them. Even though every fibre of me protested against the decision. I let out a faint breath and adjusted the Head Priestess robes on my body. A part of me was a bit scared about the plans I made today, fearing that somethin
DELILAHI carried Vivian's unconscious body back to the Moon Temple in order to avoid any unwanted eyes. It was a great struggle at first, navigating through the forests before reaching my destination but I did not relent. We could not afford for any patrolling sentry to see us like this, or else we would alert Tessa and then our plans would be ruined. So, I weaved my way through pack territory, taking all the shortcuts I knew until I finally reached my destination. I had just summoned the last vestiges of my Moon magic to pull down the barrier so we could pass through when I saw someone leaning against a tree with his arms folded. It was Dvah.My eyes widened surprise when I saw him but he didn't even spare me a glance as he rushed to hold the person on my back. “What the fuck happened?” he growled, his voice rough with worry. “Why is she injured? Where the hell are you two coming from?”I opened my mouth to explain everything, but then I remembered that we were still outside the
DELILAHCaspian immediately shot up from his seat without hesitation, not caring about the loud screech it made across the floor when he closed the distance between us. As soon as he got in front of me, he lowered himself on one knee before grabbing my arm, checking to see if I was hurt."Delilah, are you alright?" he asked, his voice full of concern. I was too shaken up by the divination to the point that I didn't even know how to respond for three solid seconds. My mind kept replaying all the images I'd seen earlier, and suddenly everything made sense. The fact that I had just unknowingly acquired the answers I have been looking for all this time through a simple divination nearly made my knees buckle from a mix of relief and exhaustion."Delilah?"I snapped my head up to see the blatant concern in Caspian's eyes looking back at me. It had been so long since he looked at me like that, so it nearly softened me, making me spill secrets that I had no business telling him. But then my
DELIILAH Two days later, I didn't hear anything from Viktor that day. Vivian locked herself in her room ever since that night and refused to come out. I tried to go to the visit his royal quarters but the guards refused to let me in. So what the hell happened? Where had he gone to? I felt abandoned and confused, but all my efforts to decipher the situation were futile. If it wasn't for my powers currently being drained, I would have already used a tracking spell to find him. Leaning against my seat, I pinched my nose bridge to curb my insistent headache. My alpha's upcoming wedding was another pain to think about, especially since the days were quickly passing by. Deep down, I knew I had to leave the pack soon, but I didn't want to go without Viktor. A knock on the door suddenly tore my attention away. I lifted my head to glare at the door, as if willing the person at the other side to go away but she didn't. After two more hesitant knocks, I finally responded. “Come
DELILAH He wanted to know the secret behind my powers. For the first time since I arrived in his office, I was grateful for the sound of the fan blowing in the room, or else he would have surely heard the loud pounding in my chest. I couldn't even think of a lie which was wordse than not respondi
DELILAH What the hell was I thinking?I kissed him. I kissed Viktor Volkov, the Alpha King!After speaking those words, my chest was suddenly filled with regret. During these three years, I had never done one reckless thing as the Head Priestess, but today I had just exposed my deepest secret. I
VIKTORAfter the ladies filed out, the tension in the room multiplied by tenfold. It was funny sight really, watching Caspian lower his fuming gaze while trying to adopt some sense of decorum.I let the uncomfortable silence stretch a little longer just to watch him squirm. My wolf growled at the s
VIKTORThere was only one way to reach the Sacred Forest from the Vyrclaw Pack. The path behind the alpha's mansion. That was why Delilah and I had to wait until night time before we snuck around the pack lands. The security was tight, but it was nothing but child's play in my eyes after Kytiri g
