Chapter 71

We sit and chat a little about our mates for a while until we finish the milkshakes and set the glasses aside.

"Alright ladies, I have some things I want to discuss with you, but I need your word that you will keep this between US," I say solemnly.

"Of course, Kas. You know you can trust me with anything," Delilah shakes her head, not understanding why I would question her loyalty.

"Kas, you can trust me. I keep plenty of secrets about my research from many people, even you sometimes," Musu takes my hand and looks me in the eye.

'Thank you ladies. This all stays with the three of US in this room. If we want to speak about it again, it is only between the three of US," I reaffirm my words.

They both look at me and nod. I tell them about my conversation with Leticia. Everything from my abilities, her abilities, and the various abilities of our sisters.

"Why do you want to keep this a secret?" Delilah asks, "It seems like information any of your sisters who are downstairs could easily provide or if they don’t know, they would want to."

'That’s the thing, that concerns me. I had a vision while I was sitting with Leticia. It was from the past. She said it was from the time of the War of 1812.1 gave her the silver knife she has been using to kill the Guardians. She said I was the one that ordered her to do it. She seems convinced that the Mavri Magea are the way we are to create balance among the Manae. It seems like being able to control all these abilities is going to be important."

"What does that have to do with the rest of the Manae?" she looks at me, confused.

"Delilah, if Leticia can perform magic, that means so can 1.1 need you to teach me, but we can't let anyone find out. What if my sisters see it as a threat? And can you imagine what Bronx would say if he found out? Leticia

is not okay in the head. It sounds like I would be the only one who could stop her if necessary," I sigh heavily, "Something I have done in the past has sent her down a dark path. I need to be prepared in case I need to defend myself against her or, Goddess forbid, stop her. If there is any way I can help save her soul, then I need to do that too.”

Delilah nods in understanding and holds my hand tightly, 'Til help you, Kas. Of course I'll help you."
