Chapter 9...

Delilah POV...

In the past few days, I've been able to control my flickering eyes, i even tried to teach myself how to lock Denali out but she won't let me. There have been some new developments in me for example, just the other day, Connor's brother Asher took my cereal, my frosted flakes and not only took but finished it. Of course I got angry and stomped my way to his room by the time I got there I saw his eyes widen in fear i was confused as to why he was scared i mean he has seen pitch black eyes before so what makes mine different.

Wanting to know why he was scared i made my way over to his mirror and gasped in fear i know i'm not meant to be afraid of myself but this was an exception. My nails were longer, black with pointy edges, dark greenish veins were showing all over my neck, my wrists and my arms. I dropped to the ground and screamed more like a roar, i screamed cause i was monster, i screamed cause i'm not sure i could be controlled, i screamed cause i'd probably become some lab rat and lastly i screamed louder because i thought maybe knew that Connor would leave me if he knew what i was. He rushed in minutes later and immediately i inhaled his scent i calmed my nails were back to normal and my veins weren't popping out and looking hideous. He sat beside me and told me he needed to tell me something and at that moment while thinking about what he wanted to tell me i realized that all this happened cause of a box of cereal that i could always buy back some other time but the real question was why wasn't Connor terrified like his brother was.

Connor POV.....

We both were sitting in my room drowning in silence and it was killing me that way she was sitting right beside me looking at everything but my face so i decided to talk. "Lilah i really need to tell you so if you would please just look at me once so i can start even if it's side eyed." i said hoping she would at least take a tiny glimpse instead she said "You can still start talking without me looking at you Connor." I sighed in defeat and continued.

"I know what you are." I expected her to be shocked but instead she smiled slightly and said "Oh really what am i." "I'll explain to you only if you look at me." I couldn't stand looking at the back of her head any longer. "Fine." And then she turned around. "lilah it doesnt matter what you look like i love you no matter what." I said cupping her face and kissing the tip of her nose, then her head, then her cheeks. "Okay okay stoop." She said while giggling.

"OK so you're a Lycan, You're a shifter just like me but you my sugar plum are of a higher species much more powerful with more abilities." I was going to continue but she burst out laughing my brows furrowed in confusion. "Why are you laughing huh what's so funny about what I said." She tried to talk but what she was about to say only made her laugh harder. "Lilahh if you continue laughing i won't hesitate to start tickling you until you Pee." Immediately she heard pee she scrunched up her nose in disgust and stopped laughing.

"Really Connor Really it was all going well till you mentioned sugar plum." "What you don't like it?." I asked in confusion "No, Not at all you'll have to find some other pet name for me that isn't Sugar Plum." She said snorting at the end of her sentence. "Yeah yeah lets just continue. So I was saying that you have more powers and abilities but you have to find out what they would be and also learn to control them and control yourself." She nodded her head in understanding "with the help of a witch." Immediately i said that some other voice that wasn't mine or Lilah's spoke saying "And that would be me." We both jumped up startled and began to look for the person with the voice but we didn't see a soul. And then it spoke again

"Look down you morons." And we looked down and saw a little girl. lilah gasped and said "You're the girl i saw at the mall a few months ago and ever since I saw you I've been having dreams." "Yeah yeah I know I'm a witch, Conner and i will be helping to you I will help with your memories while Connor helps with your strength and Self Control." Lilah scoffed and said "if you're a witch then prove it." Still she raised her left hand and swung it really hard in the air to the left and i felt the impact on my cheek. "Ow what was that for." "Well I like Lilah more cause she treated me nicely the first time we met unlike you." "When have we ever oooh i remember you you're the annoying witch from the other night." "Yep that's me your one and only Avery."

Avery Pov

"Now Lilah the blood moon is tomorrow night." She looked at me in confusion. "What is a blood moon." I sighed this girl still has so much to learn. "The blood moon is a time when Werewolves, Vampires and even Lycans bloodlust grows stronger than usual so most are able to control and some go on a killing spree, you my dear are likely to go on a killing spree cause you haven't learned to control and I'm sure you don't want to wake up beside a pile of dead bodies so it's better we lock you in one of this pack's strongest dungeons for the whole night to prevent such a thing." She nodded her head in understanding and I'm glad she didn't go screaming cause I really thought what I said would terrify her but i had to say it that way.
