All Chapters of The Draven's: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Nicolae's POV:Once back in my own room I quietly walk over to my bed and sit down on it. I look back over my shoulder at Layla who is sleeping soundly. I turn back and place my head in my hands as sadness grips at my soul.Layla's POV:I'm standing there in a beautiful gown with Nicolae smiling happily in front of me. There are many guests and people who congratulate us as we walk around what looks to be a courtyard. A familiar face suddenly appears before us."Congratulations NIcolae and Layla. I couldn't be happier for you two. As soon as you two are back in town we must get together for dinner." James says with a smile as he shakes Nicolae's hand."That sounds great doesn't it love." Nicolae says as he looks down at me with a smile."Yes it does." I reply with a smile as I look up at him.Soon James walks away leaving Nicolae and I standing there alone and I have a hard time wrapping my head around the scene before me. Was I ever

The door to the study suddenly swung up and Nicolae walked back to the desk that was piled with papers."I'm going to go play in my room." Lorie says with a wink and then swiftly leaves the study.I stand from my chair and slowly walk to Nicolae's desk."I can help you if you'd like?" I offer as he scans over a document in his hand."No it's alright. I'll be done soon enough." He says as he picks up another paper."Do you want me to leave so I won't disturb you?" I ask."Your fine Layla." He says with a chuckle.I slowly open my book and begin reading again as I walk back to my chair.Nicolae's POV:I casually glanced up at Layal who was now walking back and forth in front of the large windows and reading the spell book. She was holding the book delicately in one hand while fidgeting with the ring I had given her days ago. I silently watched her as she would recite a few words here and there casting power and energy spel

Layla's POV:"I don't like that Kevin guy." Victor says as I am on my way to my next class."That would make two of us." I reply."He seems to be pretty interested in you." He smirks.I stop and shoot him a death glare then continue walking."Are you going to follow me all day?" I ask as I near the doorway to my next lecture."I'm not following you. It just so happens that we share these two classes." He says with a grin as he holds out his arm gesturing for me to go in first.I roll my eyes and walk past him and quickly find a good seat."So what are you and my brother doing today?" He asks as he plops down in the seat next to me.I silently mull over what Nicolae and I had discussed the night before about finding out the truth. He's supposed to take me to the gravesites today. He is hoping I can channel my power to get a vision of the past and to unblock whatever force is keeping my memories from returning."The

Layla's POV:It's now past midnight and Nicolae still isn't home. I slowly get up from the couch and head upstairs. Just as I open my bedroom door I hear a familiar voice behind me."Layla?" Nicolae says softly.I turn to Nicolae and a wave of emotions rush over me again."Why are you still awake?" He asks gently."I was afraid you wouldn't come home." I replied as I looked down at the ground."As long as you are here I will always come home." He says as he walks towards me."Um, Nicolae." I begin to speak as he walks up in front of me."We...we need to talk." I say nervously."Ok." He replies.I motion for him to follow me and walk into my room closing the door behind us."What's wrong?" He asks as I sit down on my bed."I remember everything Nicolae." I say quickly as he sits next to be."That's good isn't it?" He replies as he takes my hand."Yes but...I remember it all. My life befo

Layla's POV:It's almost time for Nicolae and I to leave and I look myself over one last time in the mirror before slipping on my black heels. Just before I leave my room I take the small gold band off the chain and place the empty chain on my dresser then place the gold band on my finger. I smile at its familiar warmth and leave my room. I  slowly begin to descend the stairs when I see Nicolae waiting by the door as I walk steadily closer to him. His hair is pulled half up while the rest of his hair is down and straight. His handsome face looks stern but there is a softness to it that I've noticed. His black suit fits him well and my heart begins racing wildly in my chest the closer I get to him. Nicolae suddenly turns to look at me and I notice something in his eyes. Like he's just spotted his prey and he's going in for the kill.Nicolae's POV:I watch Layla as she descends the large staircase towards me. She is wearing a beautiful maroon colored halter n
