Lila’s POV
I turned and saw that same she-wolf that was giving me an evil stare at the packhouse the morning that Enzo marked me.
She was staring at me like I was some villain. My heart fell into my stomach as she approached.
“What the hell do you think you are doing?” She asked again through her teeth.
She was wearing a pair of scrubs and holding a clipboard firmly in her manicured hands. Did she work at the hospital?
I stood to my feet, keeping my eyes locked on hers. She already didn’t like me, so I knew this conversation wasn’t going to go in my favor. The best I could do was take her attack with grace and be on my way.
“This is why Volana cannot be trusted. You cause harm wherever you go. It’s disgusting. Get away from that little girl,” she hissed, her eyes showing nothing but fury.
“Megan!!” A woman cried, running through the halls with the other little girl, Kenzi, running behind her.
“Mommy!” Megan cried as she stood to her feet and ran to her mother.
They finally reached one another, and the mother scooped her up into her arms and held her close.
“Oh, sweetheart. What happened?” Her mother breathed.
“I was running with Kenzi and I fell,” she cried. “I hurt my arm.”
She lifted her arm to show her mom, but there was nothing there. This caused Kenzi to gasp because she saw the blood and now there’s nothing. I could see the complete confusion on her face as she stared at Megan’s arm.
“Oh darling,” her mother breathed, kissing her arm gently. “I’m so sorry I wasn’t here.”
“You did this, didn’t you, Luna?” The she-wolf hissed, still staring directly at me. She said the word “Luna” like it was a bad taste on her tongue.
I narrowed my eyes at her, unsure of what she meant, but she got the mother’s attention, along with a few others who were wandering the halls. A collection of doctors and nurses were looking in our direction as well.
“You used your Volana powers to cause this little girl harm,” she continued to seethe, stepping closer to me. “If you weren’t here, things would have been fine.”
“I’m not sure I understand what you are saying, Nurse Felicity,” the mother said, peering over at the she-wolf.
Felicity was her name.
“This woman is our future Luna,” Felicity spat, folding her arms across her chest. “She’s also a Volana. We all know just how dangerous Volanas are. We heard the stories, and we know them to be true.”
I heard the murmurs from around me, everyone staring at me in horror.
“I heard it was a Volana that drove the previous Alpha crazy,” someone whispered.
“Is that really our future Luna? She’s so young.”
“Is she really dangerous?”
Felicity stepped closer to me, so she was only inches away.
“You have no business being in our pack. Regardless of where you go, whether you mean to or not, you will always cause harm.”
