“Hey,” Delilah had called Rod multiple times at night but he never picked up. She then came up with the idea of calling him first thing in the morning as he might be asleep at night time.
Her heart was in constant fear of hurting Rod, obviously, that was bound to happen but she couldn't feel anything for him ever since she got back to this town.
So, instead of keep cheating on him, she thought it truly was the right decision to let him know.
“Hey, I saw your missed calls, missing me?” Rod sounded still asleep. She was so nervous that she didn’t want to waste a single minute or to delay this matter even more, but she couldn't just ditch him without even having a decent conversation with him.
"ehhh!" Delilah laughed awkwardly in response and then cleared her throat, "It seems like you just woke up." she tried to warm him up first before she says anything.
"Yeah, and the first thing I did was to call you back." He sweetly
"Ehm!" as they were waiting for their order to arrive, Delilah decided to talk to him."So, you spoke to Mallory last night?" she asked him and he didn't respond to her. It was weird how he was acting so different now.Dallin could hear her very clearly but he didn't want to listen to her, to talk to her. He was afraid he will fell in love with her again."Dallin!" She voiced again to get his attention, he finally gave up and turned his face to her."Ehh! I think you are not here," Delilah tried to smile to not sound too concerned and watched his face. The sadness of being ignored by Dallin after she had literally broken up with Rod sparkled through her eyes and Dallin lowered his face from her face. It was still hard for him to see her in pain."No! Sorry! What were you saying?" after seeing her in pain, which he thought she was probably acting, he still decided to be nice to her."I asked you about Mallory!" she continued to ask again beca
"F*** it! I'm coming." Dallin got up from his bed and shoved his phone in his trousers' pockets.It was already late and they had just gotten back home when everybody was asleep but he was all set to go on another drive that would lead him right into Delilah’s arms.Delilah thought it would be fine to respond to him in a bit while she cries in solitary and got herself together but what she didn't know was that Dallin had already been in the car, driving all the way to check up on her. He knew he would probably regret it later but he didn't care at that moment. He had to speak to her, he had to see if she was okay with his own eyes.Delilah came out of the bathroom and thought to respond to him.Delilah: it's just I don't why I feel so lonely, doomed.As she waited for him to respond to her, his text never came since he was too busy driving. Delilah dozed off after she had changed into her red nighty that could barely touch her thighs.
Dallin woke up in time and after getting ready for the office, he made sure to tell Mallory to call his number at a specific time."You want me to call you at 1 pm exact?" Mallory watched his face while he fixed his tie in the mirror."Yeah! Why? Is it too much to ask for?" Dallin raised his brow and stared at Mallory through her reflection in the mirror."No! Of course not. I'm just amazed that you want to hear my voice before the meeting." She felt good about herself when Dallin told her that he wanted to hear her voice before he steps in for the meeting."There is nothing to be amazed about, you are my girlfriend, soon-to-be fiancé, you deserve my attention." Dallin passed her a forced smile and then walked past her to leave for his office.That was a positive change in Dallin for Mallory, she was excited thinking this is how Dallin aimed to treat her after marriage.Dallin, who didn't care about Mallory, wanted to use her for his
Delilah had come back home after Dallin ditched on their plan to go and see Mallory. She hadn't forgotten the way he spoke to her when she asked him to let Mallory ask someone else for help. There was no way Mallory was too sick to not go to the hospital. If she could wait for Dallin to be done with his meeting, it meant she wasn't that sick."What's in your mind?" Monica, who had seen Delilah silently watching the scenery outside the cabin with a cup of coffee in her hand, sat down with her and asked very politely."It's just----ever since I broke up with Rod, life has been pretty upside down." Delilah didn't know what to think of Dallin's mood swings. At times, he would be extremely nice to her, and then he would push her away the next moment."Is it because you miss Rod? Or perhaps regret breaking up with him?" Monica wanted to understand what Delilah was feeling. She did find it weird that Delilah had only been here for months and already in love with a myst
"And what about your attitude?" Delilah couldn't hold back the hurt in her voice. She hadn't dated anyone for years until she finally met Rod and once Dallin came into her life a few months ago, she fell deeply in love with him but only to go through the pain of heartbreak slowly and slowly."What about it?" He asked her very coldly to piss her off even more."I don't think you have moved on from your ex," she whispered in low energy, hoping whatever he says next would make her feel a bit better, a bit lighter but that wasn't the case.He wasn't in the mood to entertain her and neither did he want to, he wanted her to fail in her plan."That's what I wanted to talk to you about." as he mumbled that part, he noticed Delilah making tight fists out of her hands, "Yes! When I saw her again, I did realize that I haven't moved on from her." He lied and that's when Delilah got up on her feet and rushed close to him to grab his collar while he remained seat
The next day was not so well for either Delilah or Dallin. But at the same time, things were going to be worse for Faith."Where are you lost?" Mallory asked Dallin, who hadn't left the dinner table even after everybody was done and had left for bed."I have got a few questions," he mumbled under his breath, not raising his eyes to look at Mallory. She had noticed the agitation in his behavior ever since he got back home from the office the other day."What kind of questions?" she slowly sat down again on the dinner table to listen to his concerns."How can one spot a hunter?" As Dallin questioned, Mallory's forehead formed a slight frown.She had no idea Dallin still remembered his hybrid side, otherwise, why would he ask that question?"Umm, depends." she gulped and then tried to steal her eyes from him. She was pretty sure that Dallin didn't remember Delilah then all of a sudden, his interest in hunters had confused her."How did w
After Delilah had reviewed a message from Rod, she called him back but he didn't pick up which caused fear in Delilah’s heart.She didn't want Rod to plan this journey and then get nothing out of me plus Delilah was a bit insecure to meet eyes with Rod. She feared everybody will laugh at Delilah for thinking Dallin was really serious about her.She woke up for the office and was still very concerned about Rod.Delilah: Rod?She nervously bit her nails while also dressed up for the office.Once she was ready for the office and had taken a cab, she finally got a message from Rod.Rod: don't try to persuade me, it's not going to work.Delilah bit her lower lip in frustration and shook her head.That was not a very good thing, if he came here it will be a disaster because once he will see that Dallin and Delilah had broken off, he will think that he has a chance with her now.As she reached her office, she rushed near he
"I swear I'm done with Rod and I'm not going to respond to him if it makes you uncomfortable, but you can't accept me to be okay with whatever you do around with Mallory." Delilah found him utterly sincere and that comforted her heart. She didn't want to act immaturely and blame him when she knew he had just misunderstood her."I---," Dallin froze once his brain began to work again. Why did he stream tears for her even when he knows she is a hunter?"It's just, you chose the wrong way to sort this issue out." Delilah still seemed pretty upset but at least she in her mind was at ease now that she knew he didn't use her or play her."I know, my jealousy got the best out of me." Dallin lowered his head and then secretly stared at her face. Why can't they be together? Why can't he hold her in his arms and call her his girl?"I will need some time to think about all of this." Delilah needed some time alone to understand everything happening in her life.
