Lola’s POV
The next morning, I woke up with some kind of strange feeling rushing through me. My senses were heightened so much that I could hear even the faintest of sounds from the forest behind the house like the little noises made by the
insects in the forest.
“Do you feel it too, Jasmine?” I asked and she made a sound that seemed like a groan. “Can you try not to scream next time, please?“, She groaned again.“I think I have it worse because I’m your wolf side“.
“What do you think is happening?” I asked her in a whisper, I did not want to hurt her if I could avoid it. “If I knew, I wouldn’t be in so much pain. It’s a lot to get used to“, she murmured before she went silent.
She was right, it was a lot to take in. I could hear Adrian’s even breathing in his room. I could hear the clanking of plates and Rose’s gentle singing. I could hear the sound of the
newspaper that Jayden was fl*pping from the living room.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, hoping that it was a malfunction of my b*dy that will go once I open my eyes. I opened my eyes but it just got more overwhelming.
My phone suddenly rang and I had to cover my ears to reduce the shrill sound, even Jasmine growled a little in my head at the sudden sound.

I checked the phone and Lyla’s name was on the screen. I mentally prepared myself before picking up the call. “Hey Lola“, her loud voice came through the phone, making Jasmine growl again in my head. I resisted the urge to snarl at her and took a deep breath.
“Hey Lyla. Can you please lower your voice? I have a huge headache right now“, I partially lied to her. Well, I did not want to tell her what was going on with me without fully knowing what’s wrong with me.
“Oh, I see. I’m so sorry“, she whispered. “I wanted to invite you to a gathering that’s happening at the pack orphanage today but it seems you won’t be able to make it. I was thinking you could inspire them since well, since you told us about your background too“, she took a deep breath after that probably thinking she had offended me.
“You know you were supposed to tell me before making me volunteer for such a thing, right?” I asked her and she took a deep breath.
“I’m sorry, I was going to tell you because I just signed up for it the day Avianca turned 18 but then what happened happened and I wasn’t able to tell you again and then it is today and I did not want to turn them down and, can you please come for a little while?” She rushed out in her loud voice again and I groaned in pain. “Oh, I’m so sorry. It’s going to be a short event, I promise it won’t take long“, she whispered and I sighed.
“Fine, I’ll come but I’m not going to stay for long“, I said and she screamed in excitement. “Lylaaaaaaa“, I whined and she quickly apologized.

“The event is by 12pm, please be here by 11“, she pleaded. I checked the time and it was just 8 in the morning. “Fine, I’ll be there. You’re lucky I like you, Lyla“, I said as she blew me a k*ss. “I love you too, see ya“, and with that, the line went silent.
I flopped back on my bed and laid in a starfish position. I guess I have to go out today. I got up, brushed my teeth and washed my face before going downstairs to assist Rose.
Since the incident with Greg, Rose barely allows me to help her with anything in the house and if I ask her why, she’d just ignore so I stopped asking.
“Good morning, Rose”, I greeted as I entered the kitchen. The clanking of pans and her humming intensified my headache and I had to hold my head to steady myself.
Rose noticed it and ran towards me. “Hey, pumpkin. You okay?” She asked worriedly. I forgot to tell you guys that she’d been calling me pet names and treated me like her own. I wouldn’t be surprised if she asked me to call her ‘Mom‘.
“My senses are heightened this morning, it must have been due to the shock yesterday“, I replied in a faint voice before. giving her a smile. She did not look convinced but led me to the kitchen stools and sat me on one of them.
“You should eat and then lie down a bit more” she said, sorry evident in her eyes and I felt bad for being the one that made her have the look in her eyes.
“It’s fine really. I have to attend a gathering at the orphanage today and I promised Lyla that I’ll be there“, I told her with a tired smile. “I can have the whole meeting rescheduled if you’re feeling a bit under the weather”. I shook my head at her statement.

“No, please. I’m sure I’d be fine once I see my friends and have fun a bit“, I hoped I had somehow convinced her and sent a quick thanks to the moon when she did not argue any further.
I ate as much as I could, thanked Rose for the food and left for my room. I washed my hair and b*dy and got dressed in a cute top and blue jeans. I ran comb through my hair, applied l*pgloss and made my way to the venue after bidding Rose goodbye.
I made it to the venue just in time and saw the girls waiting expectantly. Lyla’s eyes lit up when she saw me and they dragged me over to our designated seat.
It was almost time for me to give my talk and my palms were sweaty and I was a bit jittery. My name was soon called and as I made my way towards the makeshift stage, Fay appeared in front of me with her minions.
Lyla was beside me in an instant. “What do you want, b*tch?” She snarled at Fay, who laughed humorlessly. “I do not have business with you, elf. I only have eyes for freak over here“, she said and her stupid minions laughed like it was the funniest thing in the world.
“What do you want?” I asked coolly. I wasn’t afraid of her, I just wanted her to be gone out of my sight. “So she speaks, the orphan speaks. I thought you were going to hide under the shadow of your friends forever but it looks like you’ve got some guts“, she said and i just looked at her. She was boring
- me.
“Is that all? I have children to talk to and your presence isn’t needed“, I told her and made my way towards the stage. “You really think you’re going to become Luna? Adrian will never

choose you, freak. An orphaned freak like you can never be great“, she said and I stopped in my tracks.
If she had said such a month ago, I’d have cowered and cried in a corner but not anymore. I turned towards her and she looked taken aback by the momentum before masking it.
“What did you just say?” I asked and she smirked before talking. “I said an orphaned freak like you can never be Luna because Adrian will never choose you“, she repeated.
“Hell no, she shouldn’t have“, Jasmine growled in my head and had taken over my b*dy before I could resist. I heard a few people around us gasp but my focus was on the b*tch in front of me.
Before I could comprehend what was going on, she had been flung to the other side of the room and everyone let out a collective gasp.
I took control of my b*dy back and Lyla was beside me in an instant. Before I could ask her what happened, I had been pulled into a world of darkness.
