Hey lovelies, I know updates have been slow these past few days. I have been super busy but now be ready for a bunch of chapters coming your way in the next two days ;) Thank you for reading and supporting me. It means a lot ^_^ Love you all, Hami <3
Delilah's POV:The next day, when I went down for breakfast, I saw Xee coming out of Katherine's room. He halted as he looked at me and our eyes met for a brief moment before I averted my gaze and strolled into the kitchen.Isabella was preparing the breakfast and I asked her if she needed any help. She denied with a polite smile and I turned around to find Xee standing behind me.He shoved his hands in his pockets and said in a low voice, "Now before you start overthinking, let me tell you why I was in there."I raised my eyebrow and interrupted him, "I don't remember asking you about anything."With that, I passed around him and headed to the dining table. I greeted Adeline and Luke and just like every other day, Xee pushed out a chair for me to sit beside him.I hated how the atmosphere always turned cold and gloomy for everyone whenever we were present in close proximity.Everyone would walk on the eggshells as if a bomb was going to explode at any moment. From his seat, Ragnor lo
Delilah's POV:Katherine remained silent for a long minute during which my breath was stuck in my lungs. She exchanged a gaze with Anderson and I saw an understanding passing between them.Anderson nodded his head, indicating for her to go on. Did that mean he too knew about it?Looking between me and Xee, Katherine slowly nodded her head, "Of course, I know." She raised her eyebrow, "Why won't I? You do remember that when I came here, my wolf was awake and out of hibernation period, right?"Beside me, Xee asked in a low voice, "So when did you know about it?"Katherine shrugged lightly, "As soon as I woke up after coming here. Aurora recognized you by your scent."Xee exhaled deeply, "I thought you couldn't recognize it because your wolf was weak and fragile."Katherine chuckled softly, "Yes, she is weak but not a fool."A thought nudged at the back of my mind and my eyes widened, "Is that why you were so afraid of Xee after coming here?"Another chuckle escaped her, "Unbelievable, I
Delilah's POV:Xee looked down at me with amusement in his eyes. He quivered his eyebrows as if to say what-are-you-doing?I simply shrugged my shoulder and turned back to Katherine. The corner of her lips curved up in an amusing smirk, "Oh, is someone being jealous?"I huffed out, "Now why would I be jealous? I have no reason to be jealous when he is already mine." I tightened my hold on Xee's arm.Gosh, what the hell was wrong with me? Why was I being so childish and making a fool of myself? From where exactly this jealousy had kicked in? Maybe it was because now Katherine had accepted and said aloud that Xee was his mate.She raised her eyebrow, "Yours? Are you sure about that, Delilah?"My eyes narrowed down menacingly as Akira came forward and let out a low growl, "What exactly are you insinuating here, Katherine?"She didn't seem bothered by my frustration. She only pouted and tapped her chin, "Well, I never heard you saying that you love him or that you two are together."I let
Delilah's POV:After a good cry session, I felt relaxed and refreshed. Weird, right? But it seemed like all the burdens, hidden feelings, and unspeakable words were out of me. I felt rejuvenated deep down in my soul.It felt like something had connected inside me. Connected between me and Xee.For once, I could really feel at peace. The fact that fate had brought his fated mate to him and even that couldn't deter him away from his feelings.Cupping my face, Xee placed a gentle kiss on my forehead and murmured, "You are the only one for me."Fresh tears streamed down my face and I hugged him tightly, refusing to ever let him go away from me.Yes, in the past, I had been foolish to push him away or allow any negative thoughts in my mind but not anymore. Things had changed now and I wasn't going to let any misunderstanding come between us from now on.Together, hands in hands, we walked back to the mansion. On the way, I said with a cheerful smile, "I promise to stop acting like a broody
Delilah's POV:That night I was lying on my stomach on the bed with a book of the old tales sprawled open in front of me. I was engrossed in an interesting story about a mating issue that led to a war between two packs when I heard the door creak open.I flew my head around to find Xee standing in the doorway. His words echoed in my mind. He had said me to wait till tonight to know what intense really means. True to his promise, the man was here to take my innocence away. My stomach somersaulted in giddiness and I couldn't wait for him to fulfill his promise.The wet locks shadowing his forehead told me that he had just showered. The man looked heavenly gorgeous in a blue T-shirt that hugged every muscle of his.I thud the book close and turned around on the bed. Shamelessly gawking him from head to toe, I smirked, "Someone is looking so hot..."I saw desire lingering in his gray pools and with a few quick strides, he reached the bed. The mattress dipped under his weight as he dug his
Trigger Warning: (The chapter includes the mention of rape scene)Delilah's POV:Xee tucked us in the sheets and hugged me from behind. He was rolling the strand of my hair around his finger and I was drawing tiny circles on his palm. The whole moment felt so peaceful. I felt like I was right where I belonged. I felt complete.While thinking, my mind went back to the events of the day.Xee kissed my shoulder and huddled me closer to himself, "What are you thinking about?""How did it feel?" I asked him.He mumbled in a melodious voice, "Are you talking about sex? Oh, it was the best. Out of the world, if you must ask me."I slapped his arm lightly, "I can see Addy's influence even in this category."Rolling my eyes, I asked him again, "I am talking about today. When you shifted during the day. When you realized that the curse was off."He mulled over my question for a long minute and then responded, "To put it simply, it felt like freedom. Today, I got to realize what freedom actually
Delilah's POV:Now that the curse was off, Xee joined me on a run the next morning. Even though the experience was new I already knew that I'd never get tired of it. And now, I was looking forward to these blissful moments every morning that were going to come ahead.Akira was beyond happy at the fact that Fang was no longer bound by a spell. It meant daily morning runs for both of them. More than us, I was glad for them.All the things seemed perfect now. Just a month ago, there was so much tension going on but now things were getting the way they were supposed to be. Simple and positive.After two hours of letting our wolves take the reins and enjoy their time together, we made our way back to the mansion. The pack members were still congratulating Xee for the curse being lifted but none of them questioned who her mate was because of whom the curse was off.I wondered whether it was out of respect that they decided to wait for their Alpha to announce the big news or they already sus
Delilah's POV:Donning his shirt, I tiptoed to my room which was right beside his, and put on a trouser. By the time, I got out, he was already there, waiting for me. Together, we climbed down the stairs and entered the dining area.Adeline looked at me and smirked evilly, "You look like you were fucked for the whole night."Luke nudged her by his elbow, "Did you forget to put on your mouth filter in the morning, babes?"Adeline looked at him with wide eyes, "What? I only said what was true. Go on, ask your Alpha whether he had kept her busy the whole night or not."Xee shook his head in amusement and pulled a seat out for me. Settling down, I asked, "Where is Katherine and Anderson?"Right then, we heard a cheerful, "Here we are."Turning around, I saw both of them walking in our direction. Once everyone was settled down, Isabella served breakfast and we ate in silence.After every little while, Xee would put food on my plate, and say, "Eat."Adeline snickered from her position, "Yea
