Chapter 70

I smile warmly as my friend recognizes me.

"Delilah, why are you here? Where’s Bronx?" I ask with a yawn and a big stretch.

She yawns too, stretching her long spindly arms, before she pushes her light brown hair out of her eyes.

Her French accent is thicker than usual as she wakes up, "He’s downstairs with everyone else completing the Santoro deal.Oh, except Musu.She’s in your living room doing research."

"Oh, okay," I nod with acceptance while the fog in my brain clears, "Wait, why does that mean you and Musu need to be here? Not that I mind."

"You have been asleep for a day and a half.The Alpha wanted someone keeping an eye on you at all times when he is not here.I volunteered this time.Musu and I have been taking turns."

"Musu is here too?"

This gives me an idea.I could really use a good chat with both of them about Leticia, but before that I want to spend time with my best friend.I have missed her so much.

Other than Bronx, I spent most of my time with Delilah.

She and I are both perfectly content with that.

Outside of the Coven's realm, where time operates much differently, she is only a year older than me.

If my conversion time conversion is right, I think she is over a thousand years old.

An old soul, like me.

For the sake of our relationship, I like to think she is twenty.

It makes it a little easier to connect with her than Lenora or Ashley, who are in their mid- twenties

I pull back the covers and pat on the bed so she will come lay down next to me like we do when James is on duty and Bronx is out of town on business.

We like to binge watch Chopped or baking competitions and eat junk food until we fall asleep in my bed.

We come up with our best menu ideas that way.
