Chapter 79

LAYLA

A day passes without hearing anything from Alex. He said he would call, but he didn’t.

His cell was switched off. And Daphne can’t reach Levi through her mindlink.

Worry gnaws at my guts as I pace back and forth in the living room. Earlier, the warrior who is keeping an eye on Serafina and David reported that they didn’t appear suspicious.

But, I can’t help this strange feeling inside me. Something bad is about to happen and I won’t be able to stop it.

My happiness will be snatched away from me again and I won’t be able to do anything.

“Lulu. “Daphne sighs, coming in my way to stop me.

“I can’t shake off this feeling. “I murmur and shoot a glance towards Ayla who is drawing.

“Relax. They are on a mission. It’s possible that they had to cut off all connections so as to not appear suspicious.” She says but it doesn’t ease my worry.

“I can’t relax until I talk to him. “I run my fingers through my hair stiffly.

“Come on. Sit here. You are giving me a headache with all this back-and-forth movement. “She drags me to the couch and sits me on it.

I rub my nape, lowering my gaze to the floor. “You know where they went right?”

“Levi told me the location. And he told me it would take some for them to return. Didn’t Alpha tell you?” She sits on the floor close to my feet and looks up at me.

Alex was probably worried that I would come after him. “I squeeze my eyes shut. ” he was all secretive. And I understand. Last time, I scared him. ‘

“You scared all of us.” Daphne grabs my hand.

Mommy! ” Ayla calls me out before I can say anything else.

“Yes, Baby?”

“Look at my drawing.” She saunters over, handing me a sheet.

Tiredly, I glance at her drawing. My hands freeze, my breathes hitches and everything goes still as I stare at it.

“What is it, Baby?”

“I had a dream lasht night, Mommy. ” Ayla blinks innocently. “Daddy was fighting the monster and Mommy was there.”

For a small child, her drawing is clearer than I expected. She was not like this before.

She drew a whole scenario. In the left corner, I am standing in front of a rundown building, and in the right corner, two wolves are circling a man…

My eyes widen. His features resemble Cleodore’s face too much.

Dream?” My hands tremble.

“Yesh, Mommy. Do you like the drawing?” She looks at me expectantly.

This can’t be a coincidence. Maybe, she was dreaming about her Mommy and Daddy defeating Cleodore. But- – –

“Baby, who is this man?” I ask, pointing at the face that resembles that monster.

“I don’t know, Mommy. I shaw him in my dreams. ” She shrugs, snatching the drawing from my fingers.

Confusion reigns me in. Ayla runs back to the middle and lays down to start drawing again while I remain stuck there, watching her with a thoughtful look in my eyes.

“It was just a drawing. Why do you look so shocked? ” Daphne sighs.

“I don’t know. “I tell her honestly.

Alex told me that he is a Lycan. I had heard that Lycans get strange powers—powers that are not common for normal werewolves.

This can’t be a display of those powers, right? That doesn’t make sense.

“Daphne! “A familiar voice yells.

Daphne and I look at the newcomer only to find Serafina standing in the doorway. She is panting and struggling to speak.

“ Luna. ” She swallows, shifting her attention to me.

“What is it?” I ask, getting to my feet and standing in front of Ayla.

I don’t want this woman anywhere near her.

The warrior supposed to keep an eye on them, comes strolling inside behind her and stops at a safe distance. I shoot him a glance, silently asking him to stay there and he does.

“Luna. ” She approaches me hurriedly.

“Serafina.” Daphne comes in front of me, blocking her path. “what is it? You can tell me.”

She stops,

her

gaze switching between us two. “You know.”

“What?” I frown.

“Luna. “Tears start welling in Serafina’s eyes, surprising me. “I am sorry. Please, I am so sorry.”

My heart sinks. “What is it about?”

Serafina drops to her knees and slips forward. ” Please. I didn’t want to do any of this. I had no choice, Luna. I really had no choice.”

Mommy. “Ayla grips my dress from behind.

I grab her small hand, keeping her behind me and safe from the woman in front.

“Bad Auntie, Mommy.”She mumbles close to my leg and peeks around. “Tell her to leave, Mommy.

55%

There is so much fear in her voice that it breaks a part of my heart. I clench her hand tighter and watch as Serafina wipes her

tears.

I am sorry, Ayla. Auntie didn’t want to hurt you, Sweetie. ”

“What is it, Serafina?! Don’t twist the words. Just blurt it out.” Daphna questions stiffly.

“They took my niece. “Serafina sobs. “Back then, they took my niece and threatened us, Luna. I was forced to give up all the information about Ayla.

My jaw grits. The cat is out of the bag. There is no use beating around the bush anymore.

“You could have asked your Alpha for help. “I sneer.

“They would have hurt her before we got to that innocent Baby, Luna. My sister would have died without her child. She had her after trying for years.” She sniffles, bowing her head in shame.

So you pushed my Baby into danger to save one of yours? ” I hiss.

Mommy. Ayla whispers, grabbing my attention.

My heart turns cold as I realize she is still behind me, trembling and hiding.

“D.I shoot Daphne a glance.

She nods, understanding me and turning towards Ayla. “Little Sunshine, let’s go play inside. Mommy needs to talk to Auntie.”

My obedient baby instantly jumps into her arms and they both stroll away.

When they are gone from sight, I turn to Serafina. She’ is watching me and she is still crying. My heart is drowning and the sense of impending doom is increasing by the moment.

“They wouldn’t have hurt Alpha’s daughter until they got what they wanted.” She provides a useless excuse.

“Why are you doing this now?” I ask, walking closer to her.

“Luna. “Her voice turns into a nervous whisper.

My heart starts pounding in my chest. “Tell me! ”

“They know Alpha is coming, Luna. They have set a trap for him. Please. If something happens to Alpha, this pack wo survive. Please do something. Save him. “She cries out, freezing my world.

“A trap for him?” My voice sounds muffled in my ears.
