Sophie reached out and took Rose's hand, her touch warm and reassuring. "We need to be cautious," she said gently. "We can't afford to let our guard down, not when the safety of everyone on this island is at stake."
Natalie nodded solemnly, her expression grave. "We'll keep a close eye on Layla," she said, determination shining in her eyes. "And if we discover anything suspicious, we'll confront her together."
As they sat together, their minds swirling with worry and doubt, a heavy silence settled over the shelter. They knew that their suspicions could tear their tight-knit community apart, but they also knew that they couldn't afford to ignore the signs of danger.
With a shared sense of determination, Sophie, Natalie, and Rose resolved to keep a watchful eye on Layla, to uncover the truth behind her newfound power and to protect their island home from whatever threats may come.
