Chapter 40: The Birth of a Family
Plans were quickly made for the attack against Thundermoon. Layla was impressed how easy it was for Solomon to take command of the room and then of the plans. She spent the rest of the meeting watching the room, watching Solomon, and then watching Balthazar. She could see where her father lacked the authority to lead. Anthony clearly didn’t want to be in charge of anyone, he wanted the freedom to do whatever he pleased which was nothing at all.
It was a first hand learning experience sitting in and watching the men of the room plan for war. She had never been included in conversations like this before. It was much more interesting to plan a war than to plan a party. She didn’t want to miss a council meeting ever again. She saw a peek into the future and she liked what she saw. She was inspired to become the leader she always knew she could be.
