Chapter 40:

As Layla walked downstairs after Beatrice had dressed her as usual, and Lucius was there to greet her, a perfect plan formed in her head.

She sat down in her chair as soon as the food trays were delivered.

Although Layla wasn't touching any of the platters, Lucius helped himself to bread and egg sauce.

Lucius felt bad for what had happened between them the day before and he knew he should be apologizing but he decided against it.

He had never felt sorry over anything before, and he was not going to start doing it now.

His frustration went toward Jake. He wished he had seen Jake. He didn't deserve to live at all, and he would have killed him without even thinking about it.

Lucius blamed Darius for summoning the cops to finish a task that he could have completed on his own.

Layla let out a small cough and his eyes moved toward her at once and he was once again reminded that he had offended her the previous night.

"Layla, I hope you are doing fine?" He asked in an attempt to

    Chapter 41:"Thank you for coming,” Lucius said and shook the doctor. "It is my pleasure, so where is she now?" He inquired.“I have to instruct them to take her inside, I don’t understand why she is acting this way, I just hope everything is fine,” Lucius said.“Of course, everything will be fine there is no point panicking. Can I see her now?” the doctor asked."Sure you can, we took her upstairs," Lucius answered and he showed him the way to the room."There she is, doctor," Lucius said as they walked into the room.Layla was taken aback; she had no idea why he had phoned the doctor. She wasn't ill, so why was a doctor coming to see her?"What's happening here? How come the doctor is here? Why do you need to call a doctor when I'm not sick?” She asked, startled."Miss, I know you are not ill; I just need to talk to you for a moment. Please excuse us, Mr. Lucius,” the doctor replied before Lucius could think of an answer. "Sure, I will be waiting for you outside," he answered, and

    Chapter 42:After he and Darius agreed on what they were going to take out or maintain in the contract, Lucius went upstairs to check on her and immediately he entered Layla started taking off her clothes.“You don’t need to do this, put on your clothes you aren’t in your right sense now,” he growled.“I'm doing great, thank you. There is nothing wrong with me, and this is work. I believe there are established rules that I must abide by. Since you paid for my services, breaking my end of the deal would constitute fraud on my part,” she said and continued but Lucius stopped her."I insist, there is still time for our agreement to stand because right now, your health is more essential than any kind of agreement. Let's concentrate on that for now,” he remarked with serenity.Layla laughed inside because she had no idea how gentle Lucius could be and wished she would remain ill for the duration of her contract. "I feel bad because I feel I am thanking advantage of the situation, you are

    Chapter 43:Danah was listening to their conversation, she was startled when she heard Lucius coming but luckily for her, she was able to get away before he opened the door."What are you doing here?" He hissed."I came to check on My Lady as you have instructed," she answered, shivering in fear."You came to look..." He paused for a while. "Don't worry, just go inside," he added and then he walked away in anger.Her presence was beginning to annoy him, but he must maintain his composure for the time being."I am sorry sir," she murmured, as she watched him walk away. She quickly opened the door after knocking on it."Good afternoon, my lady," she said.“My lady! Do I have to correct you any more times? I want to be referred to as Layla,” she remarked.“I'm sorry, my... Layla,” she mumbled.“There is no need to apologize; after all, we are friends now,” Layla exclaimed as she gleefully drew nearer."Be free with me, I am sorry you had to go through all of that for my sake, but don't

    Chapter 44:"Close the door," Jake murmured to Alex.Alex walked in panting and breathing heavily, "I believe this is the last thing I will ever do for you," he said."I am sorry, but did you get what I asked for?" Jake asked looking at his hand to be sure he came with it.“Why are you being such a jerk, don't you care about me? I would not do this for you again, never again because if I am caught, I would be charged for being an accomplice, and I do not want to spend my youth in prison. And not for terrible reasons like helping you,” Alex hissed."You can not treat me this way; I am your friend. How are you going to expect me to survive without you?” Jake begged."You ought to have thought about that before committing your stupid act, now you want to drag everyone to your pit, no that can’t happen!" Alex retorted."I am sorry, but are you here with the money?” Jake insisted.Alex rolled his eyes in disgust.“All of my plight isn’t your business you are just after the money, anyways I

    Chapter 45:"How is she doing?" Darius asked Lucius as he descended the stairs."I'm not sure. Do you believe she will be alright? I feel...""You fret a lot about yourself, you should, in my opinion, relax. It's not as horrible as you imagine, and Layla is a strong lady; she will get through this,” Darius said. "Do you think so?" Lucius asked with worry on his face."I know so, she will be okay. I trust her to fight back.” Darius assured him, “It's just a tiny setback,” he reassured his brother again while guiding him to a seat by his hands."But when will it happen? I need her to myself. I need to hold her in my arms and feel her warmth. I need all of her,” Lucius said.“Do you know that your current style of thinking is improper? We need her to recuperate, and worrying about this now might delay her recovery. She currently needs the love, care, and attention," Darius recommended."Since you have other options, Darius, it is easier for you to say this. Because you have someone else

    Chapter 46:"What took you so long?" Jake asked Alex as he entered, swiftly picking up the pack that was with him.He eagerly opened the package of food and began chewing as much as he could, he only stopped and looked up when Alex said something."Jake, I wouldn't be returning here after tonight; my life and the lives of my family are in grave danger, the police are looking for you everywhere, and they're in my house right now. I can't give up my liberty for you. I can’t put my life at risk for you," he remarked in fear."I know you have been a good friend to me, you have stood by me in my difficult times, and this is one of the challenges one faces in life, but please do that to the end," he said."What should I do to the end?” Alex asked with a strong face, “We both understand that there is no point hiding because sooner or later you will be caught and if I am caught with you, I will be arrested along with you.

My name is Philip, and you may contact me if you need anything,” he added with a smile."You know what, I want you to treat me to your best lunch as a surprise. I want this lady right here to be impressed,” Lucius handed the menu back to him and smiled "I hope you can do that for me?” he asked still smiling.Layla slightly blushed.“Sure, don't worry about that sir, we will provide excellent service that will astound you,” Philip replied with a smile, bowed his head slightly, and left."I hope you enjoy this place?"

She stood from where she was sitting and slapped him."What was that used for?" He queried as he placed his hand on his cheek simultaneously."How could you get so stupid? What were you thinking? How could you even consider imposing yourself on a woman? How could you stand so low to this and now I am left with no choice but to clean up your mess," she angrily said raising her hand in anger.“We had a history,” he said trying to touch her, "and it is not as they have painted it. I was just trying to recoup my investment, I think you should understand.""Can you listen to yourself, how could you think of doing this to me? How could you?" She yelled at him."That's the issue; it's always been about you and your desires. I was never in the picture..."“What do you mean? Off

    Chapter 251:The moon cast an eerie glow over the ancient clearing where the Council of Wolves convened. Tall trees surrounded the clearing, their branches intertwining to create a natural canopy that shielded the area from prying eyes. It was where the Council held their meetings any time a member committed an offense.A hushed silence settled over the assembly as Rosa and Vanessa were escorted to the center, where a circle of powerful wolves awaited them.Magnus, from his seated position, fixed his penetrating gaze on the two culprits. "Rosa and Vanessa," he growled, his voice echoing through the clearing. "You stand accused of heinous crimes against the pack. Your actions have sown discord, mistrust, and fear among us. Explain yourselves."Rosa stepped forward with defiance in her eyes. "It was never my intention to cause any disharmony in the pack. All I have ever wanted was the unity of this pack. I never knew it would end up this way. It was all for the greater cause," she

"Dane, can we talk please?"Dane looked up, her eyes narrowing with a mixture of surprise and skepticism. "What do you want, Leo? There is nothing to talk about?" she stated and continued readingLeo took a deep breath, his gaze steady. "I want to apologize. I messed up, and I want to make things right. Sincerely I am sorry for everything I did, I should have done better."Dane scoffed, a defensive wall evident in her posture. "Apologize? Is that supposed to make everything okay? So you expect me to receive you with an open arm."Leo sat down across from her,

Lucius's heart sank, and Darius's grip tightened on the edge of the chair. They urged the doctor to speak, their words a symphony of anxiety."Please, tell us. How is Layla? How are the babies? Please say something, are they fine?" Lucius implored, his voice strained.The doctor took a deep breath, the weight of the news evident in his eyes. "I'm sorry.

The sterile white walls seemed to close in as minutes stretched into an agonizing eternity.Lucius was oblivious to his environment, not minding the activity going on in the hospital.The goal was Layla, nothing must happen to her. It was the second time she was facing this kind of situation and it was irresponsible on his own side.How could he not protect their supposed Luna as an Alpha that he was?Lucius couldn't shake the knot of worry in his stomach as he waited for any news about Layla. The theater doors loomed before him, a barrier between him and the answers he desperately sought.

Panic gripped Lucius's chest."Darius, something's not right. We need to get help," Lucius urged, rushing to Layla's side.Darius swiftly pulled out his phone and dialed the emergency number, his voice urgent as he described Layla's condition to the operator. Meanwhile, Leo crouched down next to Layla, gently trying to rouse her."Layla, come on. Wake up," Leo muttered, his voice filled with concern.“I should have known from the start,” Darius spat angrily.“What happened?” Lucius asked turning to Mary while attending to Layla at the same time.“I don’t know I just saw her lying there, I swear I don’t know,” Mary stated in fear.“Why the hell are they taking so much time?” Lucius yelled at Darius, ignoring Mary, “Can you call them again?” he urged.“I am trying to..."

He held up the letters, his voice steady but laced with suspicion. "What's the deal with these, Dane? They look a lot like the letters we've been getting from Jake."Dane's eyes widened, and she stuttered, "Leo, what are you doing going through my things?"Ignoring her defection. Leo pressed on. "Answer the question. Why do you have letters that mirror the ones from Jake? I need you to start talking now?""What letter?" Sh

The twins had always been a source of support, and today was no different.Rosa glanced at Layla, etching her features. "You sure you're okay, Layla? You've been coughing a lot lately. Maybe you should see a doctor. This pregnancy is very taking a toll on you.”Layla waved off the suggestion with a weak smile. "It's just a cold, Rosa, nothing to worry about. Besides, we have more pressing matters to discuss."Rosa leaned forward, her curiosity piqued. "The letters, right? But your health should be your greatest priority now.
