Kas's POV

 

| can feel the lump in my throat give way into tears as Delilah comes into the apartment. She sets down a leather bag that looks like an old time doctor's bag and takes my hands in hers.

 

“Kas, what happened?" she asks. Her face is fills with worry. Lenora is rubbing soothing circles on my back. :

 

“| had a vision, Delilah, it was awful," | begin to sob and collapse against her. Delilah wipes my tears with her sleeve as she shushes me, rocking me gently in her arms. Her movement makes me realize | flinched when Bronx tried to do the same thing just a few moments ago. Why did | do that? Was it because of the premonition? My heart aches thinking that | did that because of something Bronx didn't actually do. It was just in my head. -

 

| look around and realize he isn't in the room. “Bronx?” | look around, "Where did he go?” “| think he feels guilty for slapping you,” Lenora growls in annoyed tone. She has a hand on her hip taking a judgemental stance. “Slap me? Don't be ridiculous. Bronx would never hit me, Lenora," | defend my mate with a little growl. °

 

“Kas, | saw it. We all did.”

 

"| don't remember. | can't believe it would happen," | shake my head in denial.

 

“Okay, if you don't remember, that's probably for the best. How about you and Delilah sit down so you can tell her what your premonition was, Kas. I'll mind link my brother and see if | can get him back here,” Lenora reassures me, "Don't worry about him.”

 

| let Delilah lead me to the sofa while Lenora contacts Bronx.

 

“Alright, Luna lokaste. May I connect with your mind?" Delilah asks. She uses my formal title indicating she needs to have control over my mind.

 

“Yes, please, before the memory fades. | already feel like | am starting to forget the details of it,” | sniff away the last of my tears. “Alright. This will be easier if you close your eyes and concentrate on the vision. I'm going to recite an incantation. The more | speak, the less you will be aware of your surroundings. There is a possibility that you will feel like you're in that moment again. | know it will be scary, but | need you to let yourself relive it. You may see me as a ghost in your peripheral vision if you try to look around. This is normal. | will be observing details you may not be able to because of the traumatizing nature of the event,” she explains.
