Layla's Pov Dragging the marker down in a horizontal line I backed up to stare at the wall. Two thousand one hundred, ninety days. It was almost exactly six years since my parents have been gone, more like left me. I have no idea why I mark the days maybe I hope one day they'll come back. Being only twelve it was a natural instinct to want your parents only now I didn't, I was almost eighteen soon I could leave the pack for good. I never knew why they left except the obvious; me being a runt but, that was still no reason to abandon your child. Everyday there was a new surprise waiting for me whether it was from embarrassment or beatings. The latter was definitely their first choice trust me it was far from a surprise at this point. No matter who they were, someone would start the beat
