“Aww, she's so cute.." Aurora fawned as she knelt in front of Layla's child crib.“Your child is so pretty, Layla. I'm definitely stealing her away from you… “ Keisha teased as they all laughed joyfully. Layla smiled, a warm feeling of contentment settling over her. She had never felt happier than she did in this moment, surrounded by her friends and her new baby girl."Thank you, everyone," she said, looking around at her friends. "I couldn't have done this without all of you.""You're welcome, Layla," Keisha said. "And don't worry, we'll all be here to help you out with the baby."" She looks so much like Nolan. Baby Noelle..” Aurora read out the name that was printed on her pillow.She was just two days old and the palace had been filled with so much joy since the day Noelle was born.Everyone could see the Alpha smiling from ear to ear as he was in the best mood ever. Layla looked at the baby, who was fast asleep in her crib. She could see the resemblance to Nolan, with the bab
FIVE YEARS LATERLayla walked into her daughter's room to see her still sleeping. “Noelle dear" Layla called as she opened the curtains." Noelle get up. It's time for school.." she announced walking over to the bed. Noelle opened her eyes slowly, letting out a big yawn. "Mommy, I don't want to go to school," she yawned, her voice still groggy with sleep. "I want to stay here at home, good morning morning" She added slowly. Layla smiled, unable to resist Noelle's pleading eyes. "You know you have to go to school, sweetie," she said, trying to sound firm. "It's important for you to learn and grow."Noelle pouted. "But it's boring," she yawned again. “Come on sweetheart. Get up” Layla urged as she picked out Noelle's uniform from the closet.Five years had passed and her daughter had grown into a beautiful girl.She was smart and kind, above all very stubborn.She acted in her own will and hardly listened to anyone and got into trouble all the time.She was always up to one mischi
Layla and Nolan climbed down the stairs with Nolan in his arms. She was fully dressed for school.“Noelle, what took you so long?" Keisha's daughter, Kira asked the moment she saw Noelle.Noelle shrugged. "I was just taking my time," she said with a grin." How are you, Malcolm?” Layla asked Malcolm who was patiently waiting for the two girls." I'm good. Good morning.. “ he greeted." What about you Kira?” She smiled at Kira, who smiled back at her." I'm fine Aunt Layla.." she responded. “Noelle, you should get going. You're already late. You'll have your breakfast in school. I'll send words to your teacher.." Layla informed as Nolan dropped Noelle on the ground as she ran to join her friends. “Okay Mommy.." she replied.“Bye, dear. Have fun.." Layla waved, planting a kiss on her forehead.“I wish I would.." she uttered with sarcasm." I love you sweetheart" Layla threw a kiss at her.“I love you too.." she retorted with a firm face as their Nanny led all of them to the car.“Bye
Noelle ran happily to her parents' room and she opened the door, barging into the room.“Mommy!!" She squealed happily as she jumped in the bed. Layla was asleep. “Yes, dear…” Layla groaned her eyes stuttering. She just finished serving Noelle her lunch a few minutes ago and decided to have some rest. What on earth did she want again? Layla thought as she slowly sat up from the bed." Baby mommy needs to sleep.. “ she yawned as Noelle immediately sat in her lap, wrapping her little hands around her neck. " You know mommy is pregnant with a little brother, so I need maximum rest. What do you want? “ Layla asked knowing the only reason Noelle would come was because she wanted something from her.She was taking some lessons with her governess before Layla left her." I want to go the the park!” Noelle announced her face beaming with smiles and Layla groaned tiredly." Come on Elle. Not today..* she pointed out.“Please, Mommy. Take me to the park, you need and daddy.." she requested p
Layla was in great shock as she couldn't believe that someone would actually try to kidnap her daughter. It all happened so far and now Noelle is gone.It was like a nightmare come true. And now, her daughter was gone, and she had no idea where she was or what was happening to her. It was a parent's worst nightmare, and Layla felt like she was going to go crazy with worry.“Layla where were.." Nolan, who seemed to be waiting for her, asked the moment he saw her walk in.He couldn't find Layla and Noelle and they seemed to be taking long to arrive. She entered just when he was about to send out guards to look for them.Layla, who felt lifeless, fell into Nolan's arms as she didn't even know where to begin in telling him that his daughter was missing.“What happened to you and where the f*ck is Noelle?" He asked, alarmed as he couldn't shake off that foreboding feeling that something was wrong.“I… I… “ Layla began stammering as fresh tears flowed down from her eyes.“I seriously have
“I think you should talk to her yourself, she refused to eat anything," Keisha said to Nolan as they both stood by the door to Layla's room.It just marked 24 hours since Noelle was taken away from them.The whole pack was in turmoil as everyone was trying to find the little princess but it seemed like she just disappeared into thin air.Nolan has set out a huge cash prize for anyone who could provide for his child, while he did all he could to find her by searching the nook and cranny of the pack.Each time a guard came to give him reports, he hoped it was good news. “F*ck'' Nolan ran his hands through his hair as he exhaled sharply. He hadn't gotten sleep neither had he eaten, not that he was planning to, as he didn't mind starving as long as his little angel was brought back to him hale and hearty but the same couldn't be said for Layla. She was human and was also pregnant.“I'll talk to her.." Nolan voiced out.“Please do.." Keisha said as Nolan walked into the room. No one has
“Car…la.. you…” Layla stuttered short of words as she pointed at Carla who was standing in front of her. Alive. The last time she heard about her, was her death and a funeral was held for her.Then how come Carla was standing in front of her? Was Carla the one who took Noelle away? It couldn't be… But then Layla remembered that Carla was her only enemy in the past. The one that wanted her dead!!"Carla?" Layla called again, her voice barely above a whisper. "But... I thought... you were..."She trailed off, unable to finish the sentence. Everyone had always thought that Carla had died in a car accident, but now she was standing right in front of her. Layla felt like she was in a dream or a nightmare.“Carla.." Nolan called with uncertainty in his voice. He was going to kill her for real this time if she had something to do with the abduction of his daughter.“Hi, baby. Missed me?" She blew a kiss at Nolan who held a disgusted look on his face.“Enough of all this Carla!!!” Layla sna
“You must be joking.." Layla blurted out as she couldn't believe her ears.Carla had lost her mind, what she was requesting was totally out of it. There was no way Nolan was going to do that. "I'm serious, Layla," Carla said, her voice firm. "Nolan has to give me a child, and then you'll be free to leave with Noelle. It's the only way to protect everyone.""You can't be serious!" Layla said, shaking her head in disbelief. "Nolan would never agree to this. You're delusional."Carla's face turned dark, her eyes flashing with anger. "I'm not delusional, and I'm not going to give up until I get what I want. You'd be wise to cooperate, or things could get very ugly."" You must be silly Carla... “ Layla snapped in anger. “Do I seem like I'm joking with you?" Carla raised a brow at her and then she laughed. "Nolan is going to have sex with me.. “ she spelled out word by word for them to hear. “And then I'm going to get pregnant and bear his child.." she said proudly for them t
