It's been quite some time since I last updated, I'm sorry for that I had a busy week and I just couldn't really figure out when I had time to write.

Buttt because I've been busy not updating (again sorry) this will be quite a long chapter or at least I think it's quite long.

Anyways enough with all this typing before the A/N gets too long! Enjoy!!

I chose this song because of the title, it's not a part of the chapter.

Song: Layla ~ Eric Clapton.

It's been a week since I've woken up in the hospital. Everything has been absurdly hectic. We've been looking at the crime scene, hoping to find evidence.

But nothing suspicious came up.

You would think it would be easy with higher senses but it wasn't easy at all. If the wounds of Margret, Emma and Robert didn't tell us any different it would have looked like suicide.

But that wasn't the case.

How crazy and sick this may sound, there happened something good out of this fucked up situation.

The baby girl the murderer cut out of Margret's stomach was still alive.

Little Layla Avery.

My brother and Lily adopted her the day after they found Margret, Robert and Emma. They got her checked out and nothing happened to her, she had absolutely no injuries. The doctors even said that the killer knew what he was doing.

So there were 2 options.

The killer has a medical background.

Or...

The killer had done this before, many times.

I really hoped someone didn't make a hobby out of brutally killing people, cutting a baby out and leaving crazy messages on the wall. I wouldn't want anyone else to find their family like Asher did. Or that they have to deal with the emotional pain losing someone like that can cause.

Waking up must have meant I was 'healed' mentally. That I can now cope with the pain. As much as I would want to be able to say that

I couldn't.

Because sometimes I would forget for a second what happened the past 5 months and I'm happy for a bit. But then reality kicks in and hits me like a ton of bricks.

And if that happens it won't stop for a while. In just a week I've had it 3 nights. Memories come back in my sleep, like my mind tries to figure out what happened to them and why somebody would do that. When I'm awake I try not to think about it. 

I would wake up crying and the crying won't stop for quite some time. Thankfully Blake was always next to me, holding me and saying it would be okay and that the pain will fade away eventually.

But I know better than that. The pain won't ever fade or go away, I'll have to learn how to live with it.

Even when I hear their names or think of them I get this uneasy feeling in my throat, it's like I'm lacking oxygen on those moments. 

And of course there's a lot of crying.

But like I said, something good happened out of all this.

Layla was the worlds most perfect baby girl. She is adorable, never cries and smiles a lot, especially when we take pictures of her.

Our very own little model.

What I loved the most about her?

She was alive and healthy even after she was cut out of Margret's stomach.

"What are you smiling about?" Blake's laugh pulled me out of my thoughts.

I smile at him. "Just thinking about little Layla here." I tell him kissing Layla's head, who I had pressed upon my chest. She giggled when I gave her a kiss.

She always seems to laugh about everything.

The thing she laughs about the most?

The sound of a ticking on glass. Plastic is also funny but not as funny as glass for Some reason.

My family is absolutely crazy.

And I wouldn't want them to be anything else.

~

How could this happen?

Why didn't I smell anything weird?

Who would want to do this to her?

What if I lose her?

I was pulled out my thoughts by Blake who was hugging me, also crying. I could feel his concern through the bond.

"The docter said he wasn't sure if she would make it." He murmered in my neck. I could feel a tear fall in the crook of my neck.

"How did this happened, how didn't we notice?" I said crying, holding Blake close to me.

"I havo no idea Kate, I wish I knew."

"She's so young, she can't die already." I tell him, thinking back what happened just a few hours ago.

Flashback.

I had prepared Layla's bottle and was now testing it on my skin.

Good, not too hot.

I walked to the living room where Blake laid with Layla on his chest, both sleeping. I couldn't stop myself from thinking how sexy Blake looked with a child, it would be amazing it to have kids with Blake.

"Darling, how much I would love for that to happen, I think we should just wait for a few years, we're both still young." Blake opened his eyes. Shit he heard my thoughts...

"I agree but I couldn't help but notice how-" I paused, thinking of a good word that wouldn't grow his ego with a 1000 lightyears. "Adorable you looked with Layla."

"You weren't thinking that." He smirked. "But you know we can always practice baby making, a lot of it."

"Blake!" I shrieked. Layla made this cute little sound, suggesting she was now awake. I picked her up from Blake's chest, laying her in my arms.

I gave her her bottle and when she almost drank all of it I saw she was getting sleepy. Her eyes were slowly closing.

I did what I do every time I tuck her in, I wait untill she falls asleep in my arms.

I glanced at Blake. "You know, I never really wanted children, they just weren't my thing." I said, Blake looked at me with a surprised smirk.

"Then why would you want them now?"

"You know why." I laughed.

"Enlighten me."

"You of cour-" I tried saying but I stopped when Blake jumped up with a shocked expression and ran towards me. I looked down and saw that Layla looked like she was choking.

I jumped up and ran towards the door.

"We need to get to the pack house now!" I yelled, opening the door.

"Where is that?" Blake ran after me.

"Just down the street." I hellend over my shoulder and I starten running faster.

Honing we world get there in time.

End of Flashback.

Now we're here in the hospital, hoping nothing bad will happen.

One of our pack doctors who's specialized in baby's and young children walked out of the room in across from us.

I stood up. "Is there any news?"

"We had to flush her stomach, twice." He said seeming unsure about his next sentence. "It was full of the baby milk mixed with cocaine."

Me and Blake both gasped at that. How could there be cocaine in the baby milk?

"What if the killer who murdered Margret, Robert and Emma wanted to finish his job?" Starlett said.

"You also think a man did this?" I said surprised. I've been thinking that this whole week but it was just a feeling so I couldn't really do anything with it.

"Yeah I have this feeling about it."

"Me too."

"Do you have cocaine at your house?" The docter asked. Blake and I both growled threatening. The docter looked shocked and took a step back.

"You are saying we did this ourselves?!" Blake yelled angry. I grabbed his hand in the hope to relax both Blake and I.

I tried to stay as calm while saying. "Sir you really think we would kill an innocent child who is also a close family member?"

"No I'm just making sure, Luna and Alpha." He said politely looking at the ground.

"Luna?" I said surprised.

"Yeah you're Alpha Blake's mate, which makes you Luna."

"Can you just tell us if Layla is fine?" Blake growled lowly again. He became very close to Layla, they had this special bond that me and Layla also have.

Too bad she doesn't have that with Asher and Lily. They just can't seem to calm her down sometimes. That's why Blake and I spent a lot of time with her. Asher and Lily even said we should adopt her but Blake and I both agreed we were not old enough for such responsibilaty but that we did want to spent a lot of time with her.

"She is, she's asleep but not in serious danger anymore." The doctor said and walked back to the room he came from.

Blake and I both looked at each other, both very confused. I looked back at the doorframe the docter just walked through and when I heard a soft cry I started walking towards it.

I saw a nurse with Layla in her arms, trying to calm her but Layla wouldn't stop crying.

"Here give her to me she'll stop crying." I said walking to the nurse practically ripping Layla from her hold. Layla didn't stop crying.

But then she looked up with her big beautiful blue eyes and she immediately stopped crying. I held her close to my chest, her head resting on my shoulder.

Her heart was beating like crazy at first but now she was already getting much more calm.

"It always amazes me how you seem to calm her down." Blake said hugging me and Layla carefully, kissing Layla's head.

"When can she go ho-" Blake tried saying but a panicked Lily stormed in.

"What happened." She said with a shaky voice. Asher now also came in with a worried look planted on his face. They both loved Layla very much, but just didn't have that close connection like Blake and I had with her.

But Layla seemes to be okay with almost everyone.

"Layla can go home tomorrow but you all have to watch her carefully and throw that baby milk away." The docter told us sternly. I gave Layla to Lily, who immediately relaxed when she saw Layla safe in my arms.

"Let's go home, tomorrow is Jennifer's birthday so we need to rest." I said taking Blake's hand.

"What happened?" I heart Asher say before walking away.

~

We went to my house and agreed we should watch a movie together, to take our minds off of everything.

"Which movie do you want?" Blake asked from the couch. I was in the kitchen grabbing something to drink for the both of us. I grabbed a beer for Blake and for myself I took Sprite with Passoa in it, which is really my drink in the alcohol departement.

"Ehm I don't know, just choose something."

"Then it's going to be 'The Change Up'." He said laughing. I walked in the living room with our drinks.

"Thank god my favorite movie, how did you know?" I said giving his drink and taking a sip of my own.

"I just like that movie, always seems to make me laugh." He said with a smile. I heard the door open and Addison and Mark stormed in. Addison seemed stressed and Mark just fine. What's up with Addison?

"Mark what's wrong with Addi?"

"I have no idea." Mark said giving Addison a worried look.

Addison grabbed my hand. "We are going upstairs right now girl problems only you and Jenn can help me with."

We ran to Jennifer's room and opened the door, walking in.

"Jenn can you please com- oh my god I didn't need to see that! My poor eyes!" I shrieked, closing my eyes.

Addison also walked in. "What's wro- oh god... well this is awkward... Kathy couldn't you give me a warning?"

"Wasn't the 'my poor eyes' enough for you?"

"Guys go away we're busy!" Ethan yelled from the bed. Addison and I both ran away, back to my room.

In my room Addison looked around nervously.

"What are yo-" I tried saying but she cut me off.

"I'm fucked."

"Well congratulations to Mark."

"No not that way, I'm in a fucked up situation." She sighed. "At least that's what I'm thinking."

"Okay be a bit more specific."

"I am in trouble." She tells me nervously while she hopped on my bed. "I did something stupid and I don't know what to do about it and if Mark finds."

"Jeez just get to the point Addi!"

"I think I might be pregnant." She said looking at her hands.

Pregnant?

"Yeah you know the thing you become when you have sex with a guy." Starlett said sarcastically in my mind.

"I'm just surprised okay?!" I said and she put her walls up.

"What do you mean you might be pregnant, you don't know for sure?" I said, taking her hand that was nervous tapping on my bed.

"Yeah that's why I'm here, I kinda want to do this with you and Jennifer before I tell Mark." She said sadly. "What if he doesn't want a baby and leaves me because I'm just causing trouble." She starts crying.

"Mark would never leave you Addi, seriously that guy is so in love with you he would probably be happy when you tell him you're pregnant." I said assuring her. "Your age doesn't matter, you can do this no matter what and if you're pregnant you can always be home schooled, Jenn and I will join you then."

"Blake would probably love it for you to be home schooled, he hates it that Jake attends the same school as us even when you don't have feelings for him." Addison giggled.

"I'll mind-link Jennifer that she has to come here ASAP." I offer. Addison nods and I try to mind-link Jennifer but her walls are up.

Then I'll have to crawl in her mind.

I focus and after a few minutes I'm inside her mind.

"Jenn I hate that I had to crawl in your mind for this but Addison really needs us right now, more than you need an orgasm." I said in her mind, the last part laughing.

"What's wrong then?" She asked back, clearly confused.

"Just come here it's an emergency, otherwise I wouldn't talk to you this way."

"Okay I'll be there in 2 minutes."

"She said she would be here in a few minutes, so I suggest you start drinking a lot." I said to Addison. She walked towards my bathroom, probably to drink some water.

"Do you even have a pregnancy test?"

"In my bag, I took 5 I think when Mark wasn't paying attention." She said from the bathroom as Jennifer walked in.

"Okay what happened? Who's dying? Do I need to kill someone? She said with a serious face. Addison and I both started laughing at her seriousness.

Like Jennifer would ever kill someone or something.

I wanted to say what I thought out loud but Addison was faster than me.

"Jenny we all know you would never and I really mean never kill someone." She giggled from the bathroom. Even in shitty situations like this where we have to be serious we fail.

Addison got out of the bathroom and took the pregnancy tests herself, two of them.

"Let's get this thing over with." She said walking to the bathroom.

Jennifer looked at me with a shocked expression. "Wait she thinks she's pregnant?"

"Yep." I said popping the p.

"Well why are we still sitting here, we are in this together so I hope you need to pee because we're going to take a pregnancy test ourself, to support Addi." Jennifer said grabbing two pregnancy tests. She threw one at me and walked to another bathroom.

~

"I don't want to look." Addison said walking in with her eyes closed and with 2 pregnancy tests in her hand. She's been there for a long time, the tests probably already have a result. Jennifer and I still have to wait a minute.

"How long do we have to wait?" I asked looking at the stick.

"5 minutes, so we are almost there. Lay them on the towel over there and Addi don't look until we are all going to look, we're in this together." Jennifer said confident. We all did as she said and were now waiting with our eyes closed.

Suddenly we heard a click and shortly after that another one.

"Can we look now?" Addison said.

I opened my eyes. "Yes." And they both opened their eyes.

We all looked at each other before we looked at the ground.

When we looked down we all gasped.

There were 3 out of 4 pregnancy tests that came back positive.

Holy shit.

Unknown adorable baby as Layla Avery.
