The men sneaked out of the school with Layla in the back seat.
The men turned out to be wizards.
Oh, heavens, how they hated mixed-bloods.
Not only was Layla a mixed-blood, but she was also a threat to their existence, possessing immense powers that could potentially destroy everything they stood for.
They drove for hours in silence.
Unknown to them, Layla had already woken up, but she remained completely silent.
She realized that her hands were tied behind her back. Since she was rendered helpless, she simply sat back and observed them.
She had already realized that she wasn't dealing with humans but creatures from the Underworld.
What she couldn't understand was why Betty had betrayed her.
Well, they weren't exactly close friends, but they weren't enemies either.
'Could she have been coerced?' she wondered.
Whenever the men looked back at her, Layla instinctively closed her eyes, pretending to still be unconscious.
