Kayla's POV."I promise to keep you safe, Kayla... All you have to do is come with me." Alpha Reynolds urged me as he extended his hand towards me.I was left with nothing but shock and confusion. Who was I to go with? Who was I to take his hand?If I took Willson's hands, my job place would be an unbearable place to be in, and if I took Alpha Reynolds' hands, Willson would not only hate me, but he'd also wish never to see me.Caught in a state of confusion, both men stood before me, making the situation increasingly challenging. Their standing added an extra layer of discomfort, and I found myself disliking the entire scenario.I was still trying to get my head into the game, to think right, to think straight, when just then Adora came to my rescue."Come on, Airport Mommy... I want to have you stay with me!" She begged with her tender and soft voice, pulling me out of a trance.I looked behind Alpha Reynolds, and seeing her smile, I instantly felt enchanted and mesmerised by her ge
Kayla's POV. "Is he back already?" I thought to myself as my gaze shifted to the direction of the door the moment I heard the knock. I was positive Alpha Reynolds had left for the company, and hearing knocks on the door made it difficult for me to figure out what had happened. When the knock sounded again, I got out of bed and strolled over to the door without hesitation.Taking a deep breath, I reached for the door handle and opened it, wanting to ask Alpha Reynolds why he had returned so abruptly, but the moment I pulled it open, my heart fell and I couldn't help but freeze in my tracks. "Mrs. Becky!" My eyes opened widely as I looked at my stepmother, who was beaming viciously at me as she stood right in front of me. If there was anyone I was expecting to see, it was certainly not Mrs. Becky with her venomous gaze at me. "Are you that surprised to see me that you can't tell me to come in?" She asked, her voice as nasty as ever. She simply wasn't going to care about my health
Ava's POV. "I can't believe I was locked up solely because of her! Just because of that bitch!" My hand clenched as I murmured under my breath and paced about my room, as if I was down with an upset tummy. A lot of things were rushing through my mind, and all I wanted to do was kill and end Kayla, to show Kayla that I was the boss at the mansion and not her. Just then, memories of being attacked and dragged into my room by Beta Luke flooded back, and I couldn't help but feel irritated. "Fuck!! She must pay!" I screamed at the top of my lungs as I stomped my feet on the ground repeatedly like a child. I simply wanted to never see Kayla again, for her to vanish into thin air and never show her face to me again. At this point, I regretted not killing her back then, when the bargain was struck. I should've sent her away, but I didn't, and as it stood, it was begining to drive me nuts. "I have to stop this, no matter what! I just need to get out of this disaster I've created for mys
Reynolds' POV. "You know you can tell me anything right?" I held Kayla's hands and persuaded her to open up to me. I was aware that Ava's mother had not simply entered her room to meet her. Mrs. Becky was bound to despise Kayla as much as Ava did."I am sorry, Alpha Reynolds. I didn't mean to draw attention to myself, but believe me, Mrs. Becky was not here to cause any harm to me. She came here to see how I was doing!" She continued to lie to me, and I could see it in her eyes. When she lied, it was written all over her face, and her hands continued to shake, making it even more obvious. I wanted to embrace her at this time, kiss her on the lips, and wipe away the tears on her cheeks, but it was a forbidden affair because Ava was still in the mansion. If there was one thing I didn't want to do, it was to make life difficult for Kayla, and kissing her would undoubtedly cause problems. My phone buzzed again as I continued to stare at her, despite her attempts to avoid making eye
Kayla's POV.Three days later. "Don't tell me you want to take her with you, Reynolds! She can take a taxi or something!" Ava snapped the moment she noticed me walking right behind Alpha Reynolds, all dressed in work attire. Since she regained consciousness, she had continued to act unbearably and suffocating. I tried telling Alpha Reynolds I wanted to leave, but he wouldn't let me go. He'd always insist that Ava wouldn't hurt me, but I knew she was up to something. "Leave my way, Ava! You don't get to pick or decide what I do with my secretary!" Alpha Reynolds' strong voice echoed through the air as he stared at her."Are you pushing me away because of her? No, Alpha Reynolds, I will not allow you to go with her! She can certainly leave on her own!" Ava added and it made me realise that I shouldn't bother Alpha Reynolds with my own issues. I wasn't married to him, so it was best if I stayed in my lane and said nothing. "Ava, you keep daring me, and I'm letting this slip because
Kayla's POV. "I can stay with the others and …" I was about to make another suggestion when Alpha Reynolds' voice interrupted, leaving me astonished and gazing at him as if I had seen a ghost standing directly in front of me. "She will stay in my room tonight! Make the necessary preparations!" He declared without fully facing me. His words caused chills to race through my veins. I was astonished and couldn't help but blink several times in an attempt to quell my shock.Just then, he turned around fully and grabbed my hand, intending to drag me into the building, but my urgent instincts kicked in, and I understood I had to act swiftly if I wanted to avoid what was about to happen "I… I can't go with you, Alpha Reynolds!" I instantly stopped him, removing my hand from his already loosened grip on me."What did you just say?" He turned to face me again, his eyes still flaming with rage. "I…" I swallowed anxiously. I tried not to make eye contact with him at this point. "I can't go
Kayla's POV."You can't tempt the Alpha and expect to leave his sight that easily, Kayla…that's not how it is done with me!" His raspy voice murmured in my ears, making me feel intense and anxious. I swallowed uncomfortably, biting my bottom lips as I stared at the door in front of me. At this point, I wished I hadn't taken the bath, I wished I hadn't forgotten the towel, and, most importantly, that I had paid attention carefully enough to recognize when Alpha Reynolds entered the room. I was ashamed of myself at this moment, but his hands squeezing my boobs gave me no choice but to remain calm. I wanted more, and I couldn't let it go. I haven't felt this way in a long time; thrills kept pouring through my veins. My gaze was still locked on the door before me when Alpha Reynolds, with his one arm wrapped around my small waist, turned me to face him. Turning to face him, I couldn't help but feel a strong longing at the sight of his lips and handsome face. He was fucking gorgeous
Kayla's POV. "Alpha Reynolds!!!!" The unexpected knock on the door jolted Alpha Reynolds and me out of bed, causing us to snap our eyes open in shock and panic. It was still early in the morning, and we were attempting to get some rest despite the fact that we had been busy all night. It was time to rest, only to be interrupted by an unknown person at the door. Just then, I pulled the bedsheet and realised I was still nude and on the same bed as Alpha Reynolds. I rushed to my feet, a sensation of urgency rushing through my veins, wanting nothing more than to get clothed and not be caught. "Kayla, dress faster! We can't be caught!" Alpha Reynolds ordered calmly, but was bothered for a single second. I ignored his warning and tried to fit into my trouser, which was laying on the ground next to the bed. He wore his shirt and then his pants. It was not too difficult for him to do so. I'd already put on my bra and was about to put on my shirt when the knock came again, this time lo
