The Wolf In Me Chapter 29: Part 2 Saved by the healer

Lylah's POV



Nelly was by the window watching the dramatic fighting and sometimes I could hear her whisper
something and raise her hand.



"How's it going down there?" I asked startling her.



"Oh, you scared me there for a minute." She chuckled, taking two deep breaths. "Don't you need more
rest?" She asked smiling at me.



"I think I am doing quite well thanks to you. See? They also removed the ventilator so I can breathe on
my own."



I tried to stand up but my body almost collapsed on the floor. Luckily Nelly was fast enough to catch me
before I fell.



"Guess not enough to walk," I said giggling.





"That's ok. Keep resting. You are not fully healed yet as I said." She smiled as she moved my last leg
back under the bedsheet. "There."



She turned back to look outside. "One vamp at a time. I'm doing all I can to help," She explained.



I was quiet at first then I thought I should help her out. "Kiy, kiy e os ta a aley dea, te do belon to plenne
eah. No su no ligh wiy ki te awae, kiy te oe tat a wiut fath," I said repeating again and again.





"No Lylah, you are not ready yet," she said angrily, frowning at me.





I ignored her and carried on, trying to hold on as much as my body could. As soon as she figured out I
wouldn't stop chanting the spell, she hurried by my side, took my already open arms and she started to
chant with me. We kept at it until my body felt too weak to continue.



"I can't... I can't," I said breathlessly.







I knew I did all I could but I felt bad for not being able to help any more than I already have.



"You have done the best you could. It's fine. I can continue what you have started. Now rest".



I closed my eyes and rested my head on the pillow and was drifted into a dream of terror and fear.



My sister witch, Katherine and I were running in the deep forest both wearing a long white dress that
was all dirty with soil. We couldn't stop running. Something was chasing us but I couldn't look back as
that would mean that I would slow down and might get caught. It was dark and at times we almost
tripped into things.



"Run Lylah, run as fast as you can. It's right behind us."



I did as I was told and even though I was feeling breathless and my heart was beating out of my chest,
my legs didn't stop.



"What is chasing us? I want to know Kathy," I said looking forward, avoiding a tree.





"It's them again. Foul creatures."



Suddenly Kathrine was pulled back with a scream and like that she was gone.



"No, no, no, no, no, hell no, damn."



Tears were wetting my cheeks as I kept pushing myself further, hoping to find a place to hide into.
There it was. A large house right in front of me. I ran towards its door and noticed it was half open so I
wasted no time and rushed in and closed the door and locked it.





I heard a lot of thumping and scratching for a while, then it was all gone..so quiet now. I pushed myself
away from the door trying to catch my breath back as I started walking around the house. It was all
dark. With no light at all, I entered the first room which looked like it was the kitchen. I held both my
hands on the table looking down at it thinking about Katherine.





"Why her? Why is she gone?"





I started sobbing and talking to myself but the pain couldn't fade away. It was too late for her but not too
late for me. I was determined to survive and now I was looking up and out of the window when I saw it
staring at me with its yellow eyes.



With panic, I walked backwards hitting a blue vase which hit the ground and broke into a million pieces
making a loud sound. I wasted no time in finding a place to hide. I crouched between the bathtub and
the wall hoping that I chose the best spot.





Two yellow eyes entered the bathroom sniffing and growling low turning its head from left to right. It
moved further in and got closer to the bathtub. My heart was beating so fast that I could hear it clearly
without any effort. I had nowhere to go now. If it sees me, I'm done. Suddenly it managed to lock eyes
with mine from a small crack. Damn. I am dead. I closed my eyes and found myself back at the hospital
in bed with Nelly looking at me.



"Bad dream?" She asked stopping the chanting.



I nodded and sat down slowly on the bed.





"Can't sleep any more. I need to help."



I stood up and this time I felt stronger, not strong enough, but better. I slowly walked towards the
window next to Nelly and observed the situation quietly for a moment. I looked at her and held out my
hand.



We locked our fingers together and started to chant with our eyes closed. Suddenly we heard an
explosion coming from a few meters away that shocked us. We both looked towards its direction and
we saw a black cloud covering everyone outside.



"I don't understand. How did the vamps get hold of human weapons?" I thought.



"Not weapons. That is dark magic. It must be their witch. She is trying to distract the wolves or us. She
could sense our magic," Nelly said frowning.



With one look at each other, we understood that we must continue our chants to help keep the wolves
strong.



Luka's POV





We were on the winning side for now but I could see a bunch of us were dead, on the cold hard
ground. I couldn't bear to see them but I couldn't stop the fights. Like Lylah told me back at the
packhouse, I had to watch a few of us die, but in the end, we were to win. The good side always wins.



I growled as I watched three vamps coming for me. Starting from the smallest one of them, I leapt on
its chest and pushed my nails into his skin, ripping it off, revealing his rib cage and all. The second
vampire managed to scratch my face with its nails and drops of blood hit the corpse below me. The
vampire that attacked my face got hysterical as he saw blood and leapt over me, trying to reach for my
cheek to suck up my blood. I could feel his tongue getting closer and closer until it reached my wound.
One lick. It only took him one lick of my blood and his body started to burn. It squealed at the top of its
lungs until it dropped dead.





Everybody around us stared at the scene in front of them. I was also shocked by what happened but
now I realised that this was on my advantage. It must have been our Goddess's doing. The vampires
will cower at the scene of my blood, knowing what happened to their beloved friend. I smiled and
watched quietly for a while the horror in the vamp's faces, then I howled for everyone to move back to
our safe quarters. No vampire dared to move an inch and we all went safely back inside.







Everyone cheered and screamed with joy. Some alphas patted me on the back, offering their arms for
a good shake. I was thrilled, knowing that we managed to do great on the first day of fighting.



Mei came rushing towards me wearing a serious look on her face. My smile faded as she reached for
my hands to come closer.



"There... there is a path...." She said, breathing heavily for a good moment, not able to talk properly.



"Vampires coming in from it to the dungeons. The kids!" She could barely breathe.



"Calm down, calm down. Are you ok?" I checked every inch of her body as I watched her nod.
"Breathe, breathe, that's right" she was now getting her breathing back slowly.



"The kids are fine, but they are not safe there. We must find this secret path to the exit."



I nodded and asked two of the strongest alphas to join me in the search.





"What happened outside? The last vampires that entered looked like they have just seen a ghost and
ran as fast as they could from where they came."



She scrunched her forehead revealing a few wrinkles with her eyes wide open. I laughed knowing that
this was the main reason why our first fight ended in a positive note.



"Baby, they are scared of me. We have all just found out together that with just one drop of my blood,
they burn like they are in hell."





Mei looked at me with a surprise for a few seconds then smiled and laughed. We reached the entrance
of the dungeons. There was just one guard when I was sure I have sent two.



"Where is your partner?" I asked the one guard that was by the door with a serious tone.



"He was bitten and he had to do what he needed to do king alpha," he said, looking straight into my
eyes, holding his formality.





I closed my eyes knowing that there was one other victim that with courage and honour he did his duty.
I patted the guard on his shoulder looking down on the floor.





"I am so sorry. I know he was one of your pack. We will honour the dead when the fight is over," I
promised now looking at him.



"Thank you," the guard said nodding, then turned back to his guarding position with his chest held up
high.



Alpha Kaden and Alpha Jeremiah walked right behind Mei and myself as we searched throughout the
area to find the spot where the vampires were entering.
