Fallen Wolf

Chapter 11 - Decisions

Chapter 11 - Decisions

Delilah snuggled in tighter. She was feeling all warm and fuzzy and didn’t want to leave. She tightened her arms around his back and snuggled in. suddenly her eyes pooped open and realized whom she was sleeping on and the warm and fuzzy feeling was his arms which were wrapped tight around her. She was literally twisted around him.

Delilah slowly moved her head back and looked up into Zach’s face. She was caught by the beauty. He looked so innocent and peaceful in his sleep. His usual harshness wasn’t present and the ever present frown was nowhere to be found. He looked beautiful. Involuntarily she lifted her hand and started tracing a line from his forehead when his silver eyes suddenly opened and stared right into hers.

Delilah immediately took her hand away and tried to move back. Zach’s arms tightened around her for a second and then he let her go.

Delilah stumbled back and righted herself as Zach got up after her. They both stood staring at each other for a second.

Zach spoke up “what happened last night doesn’t change anything and I don’t want you leaving the pack house without my permission. I can’t waste my time searching for you.”

“You don’t have to worry about wasting your time, I won’t leave till anywhere without saying something.” Delilah said trying to hide the hurt from her voice. Last night was beautiful and he made it sound like she was a burden to him.

Zach regretted the way he spoke to her. He wanted to apologize but he decided this was better. It’s better if she thought he was heartless. He hardened his heart and just stoically stared at her.

“Let’s leave.” Zach said and turned and started walking towards the pack house. Delilah silently followed him.

They both went their separate ways the minute they reached the pack house. Delilah went into the kitchen to get something to eat. She found a croissant and grabbed it and walked out. As she walked around the huge house she spotted Megan. She squealed happily and called out.

“Megan!!”

Megan turned and saw Delilah waving and walking toward her. Her face broke out in a huge smile and she walked forward.

They both reached each other and Megan pulled Delilah into a huge hug.

“I was so worried! I didn’t get to see you for two days!” Megan said moving back.

“Oh I’m sorry Megan. These two days have been crazy.” Delilah said

“Let’s go into the garden and talk there. There’s more privacy.” Megan said and pulled Delilah forward.

They reached the garden and Delilah stopped in wonder. It was beautiful, the entrance to the garden had a huge archway with beautiful lanterns hanging from it. The path through the archway had pretty daffodils on both the sides. They were white with a little yellow on the inside which made them look lovely. As the path ended, it opened into a huge verandah with paths leading through the flowers. And each of those paths ended at tiny benches which were inside a tiny hut roof. There were tiny bird houses with love birds and parrots. There were so many flowers they looked gorgeous.  There were beautiful pink dahlias, white hyacinths, orange lilies, pink roses, dark purple pansies, baby pink sweet peas. Delilah’s head was spinning looking around and around the garden.

“Come on Delilah!” Megan said and walked through one of the paths and occupied a bench. She motioned Delilah to sit down and turned towards her after she took a seat.

“About what happened two days ago, I’m really sorry. I didn’t think taking you out would put you in danger. If alph….I mean if Zach wasn’t there something would have happened to you.” Megan said

“You mean alpha Zach?” Delilah asked smiling.

Megan looked up shocked.

“Alpha? How do you know?” Megan asked completely taken aback.

“I know you all are werewolves. Zach shifted into his wolf form last night. It was beautiful!” Delilah said dreamily remembering the night.

“And you’re still here and not 1000 km away from this place?” Megan asked still shocked.

“Megan there is actually a bigger secret I was hiding. I’m a fallen angel so you guys being werewolves wasn’t a big deal. I knew you existed.” Delilah said

“Oh you’re a fallen…….what! You’re a fallen angel??” Megan asked jumping up and looking down at Delilah with her hands in the air.

“Umm…yes.” Delilah said feeling awkward.

“Oh my god. This is amazing Delilah! I can’t believe you’re a fallen angel. No wonder you’re so beautiful and have such an amazing smile that everyone falls for.” Megan said excitedly.

Delilah smiled at her. She felt free after telling her secret. She felt like a huge burden was lifted from her shoulders. Megan and Delilah sat there the whole day talking about werewolves and angels.

*****

Zach finished with his training and went into his room making sure Delilah wasn’t there and took a shower and changed into his clothes.

He sat down on his bed and pondered about what happened last night and was still in shock that he had slept the whole night with her in his arms. That was the most peaceful sleep he had had since his father died. Since then he couldn’t close his eyes without that day’s nightmare haunting him. But last night he was peaceful. He had woken up with something soft, warm and cuddly in his arm and he had felt like he was home. He never wanted to let go. But immediately after he woke up he realized that he shouldn’t have done that. He was not supposed to fall for her. She was a fallen angel.

Just then he remembered the prophecy “Beware you must Alpha. Dark blood will shed from the teeth of an enemy. He is a stranger to the sun but wants the light to your darkness. One may die the enemy or the fallen one. Beware Alpha."

One may die the enemy or the fallen one Zach thought again. The fallen one. Delilah is a fallen angel so she is the fallen one. And one may die the enemy or the fallen one. He can never let Delilah die.

Zach got up and started pacing. “No no Delilah cannot die.” He started muttering to himself.

“She is very important to my soul. If she dies there would be nothing left.” Zach said out loud in the empty room. Then Zach decided. This was the only way he could protect her. He mind linked Jason.

“Tomorrow I’m going to marry Delilah. Start the preparations for the ceremony.” And he closed the mind link.
