The Fallen ➵Lahey

//In Which she is the poetry//

"We know about the Lunar eclipse so don't think that Kali is gonna sit around to level the playing field. She's coming, and my brothers coming with her." Ethan says but the only thing I can focus on is Peter Hale standing a few feet away from me.

My lungs start tightening and I start to lightly sweat. He smiles at me tauntingly and all I can do is shiver. He did this to me and he still gets to parade around like he did nothing wrong.

They say he's a bad guy yet they still let him in on everything and they tell him everything. Lydia must have seen him again before me because she seems to be taking this way better then I am.

"Good enough for me. Derek?"Peter speaks making me flinch at the power coming from his voice. I remember hearing it the night he attacked me and it haunted me for weeks, it still does. I still have nightmares of him.

"You want me to run?"Derek questions with monotone.

"No. I want you to stay and get slaughtered by an alpha with a psychotic foot fetish. Of course I want you to run, sprint, gallop, leap your way the hell out of this town" Peter says to Derek with a grim look.

"If you want to fight and die for something, that's fine with me, but do it for something meaningful"Cora says from behind Derek.

"How do you know I'm gonna lose?"Derek questions focusing directly on my sister and I. "We don't, but I bet they have an idea"Peter says making me look up as Lydia turns her head. All I eyes on us making me gulp in fear.

"Don't you, Layla?"Peter questions me making my eyes widen. This being his first attempt at talking to me. I feel a distaste for the way my name sounds when he says it. I start to shiver and Derek notices as he furrows his brows.

"Or maybe Lydia does"Peter says turning to her as he slowly walks towards us. I take a few steps back making him smile at the power he holds over me.

I've always told myself if I were to end up like one of those girls who is attacked on a show like on Law & Order, I would easily point out my attacker. I'd be able to face him and tell him all the pain he's caused me. I'd be able to look him in the face and tell him how much of a monster he is.

But I can't. When I look at Peter it's like staring into the heart of an immense darkness, how ironic. "I don't know anything"Lydia says. "But you feel something, don't you?"Peter asks as he's a mere inch away from Lydia and I.

"What do you feel?" Derek questions but I keep my mouth closed. I know what I'm feeling but if I speak, I'll only be giving into Peter. "I feel like...I'm standing in a graveyard"Lydia says pretty much summing it up. All looks turn to serious ones and all confidence Derek just had is down the drain.

"This is a dumb idea"I whisper to Lydia and Ethan as we wait for Kali and Aiden to arrive. Derek and Cora took off and as for Peter I could care less.

"Just stay cool. Actually let's do that twin bitch thing. It really pisses people off"she says making me roll my eyes. "The last thing we need to do is piss of a psychotic werewolf with an abnormal foot fetish"I say as the alarm starts blaring.

"Show time"I whisper as we line next to each other staring at the entrance of the loft. Kali walks in and kicks the alarm off the wall making me roll my eyes as she looks at us.

"Where is he?"she asks. Lydia snaps her fingers and speaks. "I think he said he was heading out to do some shopping, run a few errands, the usual-"Lydia stops to clear her throat as Kali comes closer.

"Werewolf afternoon"Lydia says casually making me laugh. "Maybe he'll buy you some nail clippers while he's there"I can't help but add. Lydia and I have this thing where if one of us is being a bitch then so does the other. We call it Twin Bitch Telepathy.
