Two Weeks Later:
It was a grey skied weeks later, when Vlad had returned the night he flew out his hotel window he killed three innocent civilians. A married couple walking their dog with their sixteen year old, after that he had vanished and Dahmer checked him out the room. Dahmer and Flora were the cutest thing and the press were wondering who's his new lover interested and she was often seen wearing his jewelry.

As for Delilah and Christopher while she continued to heal, she slept in Christopher's bed in his loft, after going there after driving for hours with her brother. He didn't mind coming home to her after his morning jogs or street performances. They danced barefoot around till hours of the night, he loved seeing in his t-shirts and smiling, he also loved that her sheets smelled like her. When she slept he'll often stare at her rubbing his fingers in her hair. He almost didn't mind that they kissed now and then as the both considered each other as friends that just cared. Their grandmothers had been planning to take out Vlad he was almost ancient and very powerful, Stheino was the main weapon for this she was know for killing more people than both of her sisters and was a little slick in her own right.

Christopher keep the sword hidden until he was ready to give it to her, he know which had to be soon, he was getting comfortable in what he was suggested was their bubble. One day after they had takeout for lunch, he got in his black Cadillac and drove miles out of town to an open field.

The walked out far into the open Delilah were feet behind him, before he turned around and looked at telling to stop as he walked a far extra ahead, he had carried the sword in the box stilled wrapped.
" The Tribe of Benjamin was in the twelve tribes of Israel that God blessed, describe as a ravenous wolf and known for their ferocity in battle." He explained and he took the sword out the box and tossed it to her.
She did a short laugh, as he handed it to her,"What I'm supposed to do with this?" She said jokingly.
"I'm here to train you, I am your mentor."
"Yeah, in magic!." She yelled as he reached back inside the box and pulled out another sword.
"I said I'll teach you everything that's me, magic and how the Romans defeated their enemy they used a sword." He charged at her, she was surprised that he actually almost cut her with it and she was afraid knowing he was serious she wasn't like her brother she didn't fight in battle, but she knew how to use a sword Dahmer always taught her how to defend herself.

She surprised Christopher with how good she was with the sword the way she wield it. She was the first of any to actually make him sweat, and he was a man of many talents with a sword, and she was giving him a run for his money. It began to rain, at first it was light and the drizzle didn't bother, then following behind a loud roar of thunder, the rain was pouring and Delilah getting hard to see through her glasses, had cut a deep cut in his arm as he dropped his sword.
"I'm sorry." As she ran to his sword father he fall, grabbing his arm.
"I'm fine, in the car is a first aid kit."
They picked up their swords and went back to the car and Delilah bandaged him up, landing a kiss on his left cheek.

" I was impressed with you today."
"I know how to use a sword my brother use to be one of Vlad soldiers, he actually was his right hand." She stated glaring in his eyes, he looked away and stared at the sky as the sit in the car hearing the rain hit the windshield.
"Your brother told me you unlocked the curse."
"Yes, I did but I can control it, and I been with you for two weeks and haven't stoned you yet, or do I plan to."she said her vice almost begin to break.
"I know it's just if Vlad comes after you again that can't help." Chris said so concerningly.
"I'm stronger now with my fighting and magic and you just got me such a lovely sword, I'm no damsel he caught me off guard once but not again." Hearing her say that gave a sense of ease at mind.

They drove back to his loft and had pizza and salad for dinner, before Delilah had showered that night they danced as usual around being each other's entertainment this made them happy. When Christopher got out the shower that night, Delilah was fast asleep he climbed into bed beside her. Since she been staying at his place he has found himself holding her throughout the night it gave him comfort. They were heading towards a battle they didn't know they were preparing for, but everyday and minute counted.
