My happiness could only last so long.
As I am watching my parents walk towards us. I notice something off with them both.
They are stumbling like they can't walk right.
Then as soon as my happiness came; it goes.
I watch my parents bodies crumble to the ground, I try to run for them but Jarod and Bentley block my path.
I try to get to them but am blocked by Bentley and Jarod.
"Let me see them! I need to see them, they need help."
"What have you people done? Do you know how dangerous it is to bring vampires back the living? Their bodies are literally melting from the inside out as their body temperature rises beyond the normal temperature of 59° degree temperature."
"If anything putting them out of their misery would be the best thing to do right now."
Bentley and Jarod both just look at me with pure regret. It was their idea to do this for me and they didn't have proper knowledge of what could happen if they didn't go about it the right way.
Both Jarod and Bentley then shift into their wolves from their clothes. The sound of ripping clothing and bones popping, cracking and shifting; fill the air as I just sit on the cold dew filled grass knowing what they are going to do. They both know its what needs to be done. I hear my mother weakly tell one of them to kill her. And I hear a snap in response. I then hear another. By now I am completely a sobbing mess. The warlock must have left to help with the bodies.
I suddenly feel a wet nose nudge my back.
"Is it to much to ask for you to kill me too?" I say purely wishing to just die.
I am then growled at by Jarod. I see his slightly bigger wolf crouch down in front of me.
"It wasn't your guys' fault. You just wanted to help me. But I just wanted to have them back. I have lived on my own thinking they were dead for years now. But then I have this opportunity to have them back. I- I just wanted to have a normal life. I never wanted any of this. And it seems they didn't either."
In response to my crying. Bentley rubs his huge head on me. Causing me to calm down a bit. But I'm still mentally fucked in the head right now.
Jarod's wolf is still just staring at me with a scowl on his face, mad at what I had just said. He's never seen me this weak before.
"Jarod stop looking at me like that your making me feel more weak then the two strongest beings out there. I'm the one being hunted. Why can't I just be done? Can I just give myself up? I cant take this shit anymore. Our kids are being babysat by a random stranger who's an Enchanseon as well. For all we know he's the next target."
I feel Bentley tense up then he slumps his head on me causing me to be partially crushed by his massive wolf head.
MIND LINK from Bentley.
"Layla, you're not weak. In fact for believing you were pure human for so long. There's no way. Any human would have quit running and just give up. It took me and my pack three weeks to capture you. But you didn't give up even after we captured you. You have the strongest will of any of us. Jarod and I. You aren't stronger physically. But mentally you are one of the strongest people I know. And sometimes being stronger mentally is a better thing then being stronger physically."
"No Bentley, stop trying to make things better. One of these days someone's going to capture me and I might be very hurt. I might as well get it over with before it actually happens." I say and teleport twenty five feet away. Only to feel my legs freeze up. Meaning one thing... Jarod.
I look up with tears in my eyes watching as Jarod's menacing wolf walks towards me.
"Why do you guys care so much? You are all in danger as long as I am around!" I scream.
I am suddenly picked up from behind by our other Shadow wolf, Carson.
"NOOO! I yell at the top of my lungs as I watch Bentley and Jarod's wolf follow as Carson carries me like I weigh no more then a piece of paper.
"I decide to give up trying to get free after awhile. Knowing he's a shadow wolf there's no way I'm getting away from him...But I decide to give him a run for his money."
I look about twenty feet in front of us and teleport there. I am about to run but time suddenly seems to slow down for me and everything turns very slow. Like that part in a movie where it shows the bullet being shot from a gun in slow motion.
"Layla. Stop... You can't escape a shadow wolf. Let alone two of us. So please woman up and make this easy on me. I'd rather not be killed by your brother and mate for letting you escape."
Sad thing is, I know he's right. If I did escape. Knowing my brother and mate. They would kill or badly injure him.
Time suddenly speeds up and I am in Carson's arms again.
"I'm sorry. I'm just mentally tired of this shitty life. I say looking up to Carson."
He's got a distant look on his face as does Jarod and Bentley as I'm looking at him. Then he suddenly snaps out of it.
"Yeah, I'm sorry too. But I have to do what they say. And as much as I don't want to do this I have too."
I'm confused for a bit until he takes rope out of his back pack and walks me over to Bentley's snow white wolf and lays me on his back, Bentley tries to mind link me but I block it out because I know whats coming.
Once I'm tied down. Carson comes to me and makes me look at him.
"Layla. You should sleep. We have a long trip back to the pack house and you need rest. You aren't sad right now. In fact you are very happy. You still think your parent's are dead from the night you first ran from the vampires killing them. You love Bentley and you look up to your big brother Jarod no matter how annoying they both can be and you are content with your life."
He then blows on my face and a fog like feeling enters my head as I become very tired and start to fade away into the land of sleep.
The last thing I hear is Carson saying sorry to me.
