…Lyla… it’s me, your wolf…”

I squinted in the darkness trying to push past it. The voice in my head was echoing loudly, the dark room was pressed against me and it felt like I was going to lose my mind.

“Lyla…“the voice said again… “You have to let me in. You’re in danger, without your powers there’s not much I can do. You have to look for a way to let me out. I’m trapped. Lyla…”

The room pressed tighter against me; I could feel the air getting stuffed out of my lungs as the voice in my head began to fade. I opened my mouth to ask it what I should do but the words hung in my throat and then….

Bright light… blinding bright light on my eyes. I blinked severally, hoping the glare would go away but it still hung above me, blinding my vision. I flung my arm over my face, groaning as I tried to shift from the light.

“Lyla…” I heard someone call out next to me. “Are you awake?”

“The lights…” I groaned, pressing my arms on my face. “The glare is killing me, turn it off.”

I heard a chair scuffle, before hurried movements. A second later, the lights had gone off. I sighed, slowly taking my arms from my face. When I finally opened my eyes, I saw Nathan smiling at me. He had a relieved expression on his face.

I let my eyes scan the room, noting with dismay that I was in the pack hospital. My body felt heavy as if I was carrying an invisible weight but I was alive at least I was sure of that. I closed my eyes, trying to refresh my brain and remember how I landed here again.

In a flash, every swept into my memory making me sight. I tried to sit up, wincing slightly as my sore muscles protested. “How long….?”

“Two days,” Nathan replied, leaning forward to tuck a strand of my hair behind my ears. “You’ve been unconscious, as if something else had happened but I’m glad you’re back.”

For some reason, I scanned the room, hoping maybe to see Ramsey. Nathan must have read my thoughts because he came to sit in the space next to me on the bed.

“Everyone has left pack to their packs of course thankfully no one was injured during the attack but it was all thanks to you, Lyla…” his voice lowered as he reached out to hold my “You’re the Moonsinger. Did you know that?”

I jerked my hands away from his hold, my face hardening instantly.
