~3 Months Later, The Week Before Layla's 17th Birthday~

Layla stretched and rolled over, slapping at her alarm clock. "Ugh." was all she could muster at 5 phone rang a few seconds later.

"Get up bitch! It's your birthday week and we are going to start celebration by skipping school and getting lit! I'll be there at 7 so get up!" Kai yelled into the phone.

"Jeez..Kai? You're too hyper and loud. Me wanna go back nighty night." Layla groaned.

"Get up or I'll come over and teabag everything in your bedroom. Including you. " Kai warned.

"I'm up! I'm up! I do not want to see your balls. Not again." Layla said, sitting up and crawling out of bed.

"Oh my gob I asked you to shave them ONCE and you'll never let it go." Kai said. "Go shower, smelly. Love you!"

"Once was enough. Love you, bye." Layla said, hanging up the phone and heading to her bathroom and turning the shower on.

An hour and 45 minutes later, Layla was showered, dressed, makeup on, and feeling great. She so needed a day off from everybody. She walked down to the kitchen to get some breakfast and saw Louise crying, grabbing her coat and purse.

"Lou, what's wrong?' Layla asked, rushing over to Louise.

"I've been let go." Louise whispered.

"What?! Why?" Layla asked.

"Your mother said my services would no longer be needed." Louise replied.

"That's not even right! I need you in my life!" Layla said.

"I've got to go. But I love you so much, baby girl. And I'm sorry." Louise hugged her tightly before walking out.

'The hell?' Layla thought, going room to room until she found her mom.

"You fired Louise?!" she yelled when she found her mother.

"She is no longer needed. Stefan has asked me to marry him and I said yes! We're moving." Bonnie said.

"Moving? I don't think so! You've finally fucking lost it!" Layla yelled again.

"You're not moving with us. I'm going to Russia with Stefan." Bonnie said.

"Christ, mom!" Layla screamed. "And I'm supposed to stay here? By myself?" Layla asked.

"No. I'm selling the house and the business. You're going to go to wherever the hell it is your biological Father is and he can do something for once." Bonnie said.

Layla was floored.

Her mother was selling everything and leaving. And she was being carted off to...wait. Her father? Someone she didn't know, never met, living who knows where?

Layla walked back upstairs, hearing the front door slam.

Layla had an idea.

If she was having to leave, she wasn't going empty handed. She dialed Kai on her phone.

"Get over here and bring some bags. Shit has hit the fan and this bitch isn't going quietly." Layla said, snapping the phone shut.

She started emptying jewelry boxes and drawers.

Paul walked into Jake's garage and grabbed the wooden stool and threw it thru the wall. He shook with anger and upset.

"Forest! Now! Before you-" Sam posted, but spoke a second too late.

Paul instantly phased into a wolf. He was snarling and growling. Sam, sensing danger, phased into his Alpha wolf, backing Paul into a corner Jake and Seth quickly shut the garage doors.

Sam and Paul stood growling at each other, snapping. Sam went for Paul's neck and turned his head and body until Paul was under him, in his back in the submissive form.

Jake and Seth watched them, knowing that they were communicating, finally. Sam paced around Paul in small circles until Paul finally phased back. Only when Sam was convinced that Paul wouldn't phase again did he himself phase.

Jake was the first to speak up. "What was that all about?" he asked

Sam took a deep breath. "Paul's dad said that Child Services of New York contacted him today. Paul, uh, has a half sister. And they're saying she has to move here." he said.

"What's so bad about that?" Seth asked.

"She's going to be 17 soon." Sam said.

"Oh. Oh shit." Jake said.

"He's already blaming her and her mother for his parents divorcing and his mother having beat the shit out of him before that." Sam whispered.

Paul screamed and punched the car Jake was working on, leaving a huge dent to the frame.

"Better watch him, Sam. You're the only one who can control him. He'll get around the girls and lose it. " Seth whispered.

Sam took off, staying on top of Paul wherever he went. When Paul's mood was unstable, he was unstable. Surely Paul had to know that even if the girl was a result of an affair that she couldn't be held accountable, right?

Layla and Kai zipped up the last of her bags, stowing them in the back of Layla's Escalade. Kai has found a stash of money hidden beneath Bonnie's bed and put every last dollar into a big purse for Layla. He'd also found bank statements for one of Bonnie's many accounts.

"I'll go talk to my dad. I'm sure what Bonnie is doing isn't legal. Plus, he knows some people who can empty the accounts and make it untraceable. For a small fee." Kai said.

"Seriously, millions of dollars, Kai. Tell them if they give me half, then you and that guy can split the rest." Layla said.

"Fucking sweet!" Kai said. He looked down. "I'm going to miss you. Call me every hour so I can update mom and dad and Louise. And then call me when you get there. Scope out any single hot guys and give my number out like candy." he added.

"You'll have so many guys calling you." Layla whispered, her eyes watering. "I miss you already. I'll be back in, like, a year.".

Kai smiled sadly, tears already falling. "Shut up, you're making me cry already. Can't I just keep you?" Kai whispered back, pulling Layla into a tight hug.

"I so wish. I don't want to go to...what was it called again?" Layla asked.

"Fuck Me, Washington." Kai said. "Which is translated into La Push Reservation."

"La Push." Layla signed. "Well...at least I get to meet my father and a half brother? They can't be any worse than my mother and Stefan, right?" Layla asked.

"I will come up there and gay the whole place up if they do!" Kai said.

Layla smiled and let out a small laugh.

She hugged Kai once more before getting into the Escalade and pulling out, setting her GPS for La Push Reservation in Washington. Her eyes went wide and she called Kai.

"It's over three thousand miles! 46 hours away!" Layla whined into the phone when Kai answered.

"Oh my Lort! If you drive 12 hours a day, it'll take you, like, 4 days to get there." Kai said.

"I know it's quicker to fly but I'm not leaving my stuff or my baby there." Layla said, taking about her Escalade.

"And don't even worry. What I'm not mailing to you overnight once you get there I'll sell. Bonnie won't have shit left!" Kai promised.

"How am I going to survive this year without you?" Layla asked, her voice breaking.

"Don't even do that to me." Kai said. "When you get there, look in the pink duffel bag. I left you a surprise. To help you get through."

"This is why you're the love of my after life." Layla said.

"Bitch, I better be." Kai said. "Love you, call me in an hour."

"Promise. Love you, bye."

Embry watched as Sam dogged Paul's every step. 'Heh, dogged.' Embry thought, chuckling to himself. He wanted to go into the garage when he saw Paul stomp in there and throw a stool through the wall, but thought better of it when he saw Paul phase uncontrollably and the garage doors quickly slam shut. Now that the coast was clear, Embry walked in and say across from Seth.

"Wanna tell me why Paul was throwing a hissy fit?" Embry asked.

"Oh, he has a half sister and for one reason or another, she's coming to live with him and Eric. We think he's got out in his mind that she's the reason his mother was a bitch and eventually left." Seth replied.

"That's intense. Where is she coming from?" he asked.

"New York. I caught some of Paul's thoughts. heard that and rich bitch. So I'm guessing her mother is loaded." Jake said.

"So why is she coming here? If they're that rich, couldn't get mother hire someone there to watch her?" Embry asked.

"The mom just, like, left with this guy who's maybe 20. To Russia!" Jake grinned.

"So she's coming here to this poor crap hole of a town? Riches to rags." Embry said.

"Yup. I bet Paul will make her so miserable she'll go back to New York the second she turns 18" Seth said.

"Probably." Jake said. "I wonder what she looks like."

"Paul with tits? Or Paul with a vagina?" Seth said, laughing.

"I've just lost my appetite." Jake said, pushing Seth off a stool.

"Hopefully she doesn't take anything after him." Embry said, grinning.
