Who am I Chapter Nine
Layla groaned as she pushed herself off the hard floor, she had accidental fallen asleep on. She looked around the room for her phone that was ringing. The light of her phone shined on her night table. She pulled herself up and moved slowly to the phone as her body was aching. She lifted the phone and answered the phone without even checking to see who called.“Hello.” Layla said with sleep still heavy in her voice.“Did I fake you?” Williams asked. A faint smile formed on Layla’s lips, she laid back on her bed and pulled the covers over her. She placed her phone next to her and place William on speaker.“Mmm.” Layla simple answered.“Did you have a late night? Why are you still asleep this late in the morning?” William asked, a bit of worry seeping out of his voice. Before Layla could answer another voice spoke.“Layla don’t tell me you have already party with the wolves? Are you sleeping off your hangover?” Eric’s said jokingly. Layla couldn’t help but let out a small laugh at the r

Layla and Aiden had spent most of the day together. He had help her bandage her burn wound and then after he showed her a bit more of their territory. At first it was a bit awkward between them, but the more they spoke to one another the less awkward it became. Aiden had learned that layla was a very sweet and kind of shy person with a bit of a dry humor, but he liked it and layla learned that Aiden seemed intimidating and cold, but he had a soft spot for everyone he loved, he also seemed a lot gentler than his exterior made him come forth. Layla hadn’t seen any of the other wolves through out the entire day, but she think Aiden had asked them to back off for today. She also only had dinner with Aiden at the end of the day. It was actual quit a nice day all in all.Layla sat in front of her new sketch pad and finished with the last details of her new drawing. She knew it was late and that she be trying to sleep, but she had a bigger urge to finish her current drawing. She buffed out t

Layla had been staying with the wolves for over a week now. She has had small changes occur to her as she got closer to the wolves. At first Aiden was able to hear her thought, but then soon she was able to hear his as well. As more days past she started to hear the rest of the packs and they could hear her. She still had the ability to hide her thoughts from the wolves by building up walls, but she couldn’t block off the wolves’ thoughts, no matter how hard she tried she could continually hear all the thoughts they had. It was apart of the reason she had gotten closer to the rest of the pack. Hearing someone’s personal thoughts that they wouldn’t share out loud, made you grasp a better understanding of a person. She quickly learned that Jackson was truly a straight-forward guy, but with that came an easy sense in trusting his word. He was a good and fair leader, who had a genuine care and worry for his pack. The twins Vin and Noah were two completed opposites. Vin was a laid back, kin

“Layla.” Aiden said as she moved her hand up from his chest to meet her other hand that was tangled up in his hair. His heartbeat speeding up once more.“I want more.” Layla said, no emotion or shame showing on her face. She pulled Aiden’s face closer to hers, but Aiden held back.“Layla.” He said once more and looked at her. Her eyes final broke from his lips and she looked at him.“Please, Aiden. I need this.” Layla said. The pain, desire, relief, anxiousness was all held in her eyes and before Aiden could even think of protesting, Layla pushed her lips against his. Aiden’s lips felt soft and warm. The more she felt them, the more she tasted them, the better they got. Layla’s hunger for him, grew even more. The more time past, the more layla wanted him. she felt like a predator trying to catch het prey. Her hands moved to his shoulders and pulled him closer. Aiden’s hand rested on her hips and he his grip got stronger when Layla stared moving her hips, she felt like she was on the p

It would be the second time that Layla would be visited her family, but this encounter was different form the first. She was happy, excited and over the moon to visit her family and now, now she was filled with anxiety and fear and confusion. She and Aiden had become great friends over the past few days, but now they have even gone further, and she didn’t even know how she felt about Aiden and there was still William too think about too. She had love him since she had met him and that never change not even when she was away from him for a year in Seattle.Thinks were complicated with William. When she first arrived at the Lancaster house, William was one of the first people that she trusted and liked and as she grew up, she always felt they were best friends. William was the first person that made Layla happy after she was sad, relief when she was anxious

This had gotten a lot harder for Layla as more time passed. Her body was preparing for the shift, but it was awful and most times unbearable. Her hearing and sight had been heightened to a whole new level. The next change was how she could Aiden’s thought and she could hear his and soon the rest of the packs. At first Layla felt like she would go crazy when hearing everyone’s voices in her head, but Aiden helped her to control them and how to make them quite down to the point where they were barely noticeable. The next thing she realized since it was unavoidable is how she felt in her skin. At some points she felt so irritated and captured that she literally wanted to pull her skin off. There where so many point throughout the days that she wanted to scream in frustration and nothing seemed to make the problem go away, the only thing that seemed to be a little bit of help is taking cold shoulders or running. It made Layla feel free when she run and she seemed to get faster each day, it
Who am I Chapter Fifteen
Aiden and Layla sat at the edge of the river. Layla was watching the stars and Aiden was watching her. He felt grateful towards her, she had taken care of him for the entire day. She brought him his food, fetched him water and kept him company. In these few days that he had spend with her, he realized what an amazing person she was. Layla was a kindhearted person, selfless and so caring towards others. Even when she was going through all the changes for the shift, she kept herself together and never took it out on any of the wolves even though any other person would, just so that they could realizes some energy and frustration, but Layla kept being kind towards everyone. She joked and laughed with the youngest and respected the older wolves. It was easy for Layla to become a part of the pack because she was such an easy person to like, even if she didn’t think so. Aiden admired Layla. The had gotten close to one another, not just from the bond that forced them too, but they made a ge
Who am I Chapter Sixteen
Layla felt like she couldn’t breathe. To say that she was in hell, was to place it lightly. She knew she had to be dead and that she was now in the fires of the afterlife, because there couldn’t be any other explanation to her pain. It was like nothing she hadn’t felt before. Her vision was either filled with darkness or bright unrecognizable shapes. Her body was burning hot and as stiff as a rock with her muscles all contracting at the same time. Wind on her skin felt like lashes from a whip and just the motion to take in a breath felt like swallowing broken glass. She wanted it to end, she needed it to end, but it seemed like there was no relief in sight.“We need to do something for her.” William said as he looked down at Layla. She was back at home, where she belonged, but something was terrible wrong. She had passed out once William saved her from Aiden, but when she woke up – that’s when the screams came. Layla was huddle into a ball. Her entire body was shacking and covered in

Who am I Final Chapter
Layla’s eyes opened, the world in front of her looking exactly the way she thought it would. A forest that was once filled with happy and loving memories now covered with a dark cloud of cold, hate and emptiness. Layla didn’t have to wonder where she was. She knew when she opened her eyes again, she would be in the land of the dead, it was her plan. Layla got up, her body moving on its own, the rage and anger motivating her to continue. Layla had lost all love and hope when she placed the knife to her throat, she knew even if she was doing the right thing it would mean that she would never see the people she longed most to see, she would never get to lay in her mother’s arm as she read Layla a story. She would never get to run and hide as her father changed her around the room. She would never get to make devious pranks with her brothers, she would never get to stay up all night and talk to her sister and worst of all she would never feel William’s hand against her cheek, his lips aga
Who am I Chapter Seven
Layla didn’t know how long she sat on the floor, her emotions draining her more and more with each passing second. It didn’t help her that she knew her entire family was at the other side of the fire gate, waiting for her, waiting to comfort her, waiting to ask questions, but the answers they wanted, she couldn’t give.Layla realized something when she was in the underworld with the Aducator and the information would only be save in her mind. She wanted to talk to William, she wanted to tell him everything and she wanted to hug him, hug him until the final moment, but she couldn’t, she knew now that the people she loved more than life itself, was also the people that could be used against her. The Aducator said it herself, she was dead in which ever form that comes in and she could use any form to hurt Layla, she could use William.Layla realized that there was no way to fight death in this world. And even if they did fight, her army and she would be fighting her family. Layla pulled

William grabbed onto Layla, the fear and the lifelessness in her eyes scaring him in a way he did not know was possible.“Don’t think for a second that that is the truth. There is nothing in this world that can force you from us, and even if there was, you know our family will tear it apart in a second to be back with you. I won’t ever leave you; do you hear me. There is nothing in this world that will keep me away from you.” William said, he voice full of promise.“You can’t know that.” Layla said, desperately wanting to believe him, but the ugly truth made it impossible.“I can and I do. I have loved you for years and for the first time I get to love you the way I always wanted, and nothing will take that away from me, my selfishness will not allow it. You do not have to believe me, because I’ll show you, I’ll prove to you that not even if death caught me again, will I let him take me from you.” William said. Each word he spoke, he believe in. He didn’t know it would be possible, bu
Who am I Chapter Twenty Five
Layla’s life had been different since she gave her speech. Her powers were unlocked, but her ability to use them effectively was not. When she was not training to access them, she was at the library with her family, reading up on everything they could find about Lobokuéra sy and once she would finally be done with that, she had to strategize with the wolves on how they are going to fight the shadow of death with little to no information. It was exhausting, but she kept going forward, not allowing herself to give in to her tiredness. She felt like she couldn’t rest, each moment she sat still or took a breath, it felt like something was luring behind her, waiting for her to close her eyes, just so he could strike at her. She felt the waiting of the war on her shoulders, she knew her responsibility and that’s what forced her to keep moving.“We should send out scouts, that way we can get more information on our enemy.” Vin said, but Nicholas was quick to cut off that idea.“Send the sco

Layla listened at all the men speak over one another, all giving their viewpoints and strategies for the war.“We shouldn’t wait, we should attack before they do!” An Alpha yelled out.“Do we even know who death is?” An alpha questioned him.“We should hide the Lobokuéra sy at one of the packs.” “We have never run from a fight, and we should start now.”“How bid is their army do we know.”“How can the Lobokuéra sy even fight with us? Does she have our strength, our speed?”“What about our territories? How should we keep them safe if we are all fighting someone else war?”“This war will affect us all.” The wolves shouted one after another. Layla knew all their questions were valid. Did she even know what she was about to face? But where could she find the answers. She didn’t even know what death looked like, in the other world it was just a black showed, so did it mean in this world it would look the same? She knew already that she had no answers and yet she had called everyone togeth
Who am I Chapter Twenty Three
Layla walked through the crowed of wolves, all of them staring at her and then staring at the bloodsuckers. All of them were ready for what ever was to come. Layla walked deeper and deeper into the crowed not knowing what she wanted, but she had this sense deep in her core, that told she would know when she saw it. She walked further down the line of people, meeting all their eyes at least once, just to rule them out. Layla felt on edge, knowing she needed to find, but not sure what and with each passing second her anxiousness rose. She turned and looked again, searching for her target, and finally they locked eyes. The eyes she wound were old and seemed to be blind. Layla took a step closer to her and another, the wolves all moving out of her way as she walked towards the old woman. The woman was clearly over the age of 80 or 90 and she was dressed in traditional tribe clothes. Layla stopped as she was arm-length away from the woman. The old woman stepped forward her hand reaching ou
Who am I Chapter: Twenty-Two
Layla’s hand moved down from William’s neck and onto his bare chest, finding a new resting place over his heart. William looked down at Layla, his hands stroking her hair as it did all through the night. He wished he could stop time, he wished that this moment could be their forever, Layla happily sleeping in his arms and him just embracing her warmth. Last night had been the best night he had ever experience in his hundred of years. He could still feel the light traces of her fingers running across his back and over his shoulders, he was surrounded by her being and the joy it gave him was twice as much as he had imagen. Just now, looking down at her as her chest slowly rose and fell was one of the most beautiful sights he had ever seen. William softly ran his finger over Layla’s, still, swollen lips. He never thought that a being as perfect as Layla could exist.Layla let out a heavy breath as she started to wake up. Her arm stretched out in front of her, and her chest slightly lifte

William watched, through the kitchen window, at his family as he stood outside. Layla was sitting on the kitchen counter, her arms around Breanna neck and Eric and Nicholas embracing on another on the far-left corner, while grace was making a dish. The kitchen was filled with their laughter as Eric told her one of his haunting-accident stories while she was gone. Layla’s face was bright wit glee and William couldn’t help but bath in her joy. Nathaniel walked towards William and stopped next to his side.“It feels like she home. Like everything is back to the way it should be.” William said and Nathaniel smiled as he also took in the joyousness scene.“It’s good to have her home.” Nathaniel said.“For a day. Then tomorrow she is supposed to prepare to fight a war? Every time it seems like she is coming home, something takes her away and the last thing that took her way, killed her Nathaniel.” William said, his voice heavy and ruff with tension and anger. Nathaniel also tensed as he rem

“Sit here, then I’ll go get you some water.” William spoke as he placed a blanket over Layla’s legs. She hadn’t realized that she was cold, but she looked at her arms and legs and saw goosebumps. She gave him a small smile and nodded, Grace came to sit next to her daughter as all the Lancaster’s and werewolves entered the room. Brea, Eric, and Nicholas stood behind Layla’s sofa and Nicholas stood next to his wife as the wolves stood across from them. They all stood in one perfect line. William came back with a glass of water. She thanked him and took a sip, she smiled as the taste of sugar hit her tongue. Ever since she was young and she had any injury of any sort, William would always offer her a glass of water with a bit of sugar in it. William stood next to Layla and placed his hand at the back of her neck, almost in a protective way, but the true reason he did it was to calm his nerves, he needed to feel her heartbeat, not just hear it.The wolves all stared at Layla as she tried
