Thank you for reading Khai and Marie's short story. I hope you like it and are satisfied with the ending. Please leave me your reviews and gems.
Layla I exhale and inhale as we land. My boyfriend, Daniel, is excited to meet my family. We have been dating for six months and felt it was our natural step since I visited his parents last spring. Daniel is tall, intelligent, and good-looking. We met at the hospital where he works as an intern doctor. He takes my hand, and I smile at him as we leave his plane. We descend the stairs, and I immediately see Killian waiting before his car, looking devilishly handsome with his hand in his pocket. Time stopped as I took him in. He was 6'4 ft with a symmetrical, pleasing, sculptured face created perfectly by the gods —Killian was very attractive, and girls clung to him like bees on honey. I glanced at his chest and involuntarily swallowed. The thin shirt he wore was straining to cover his eight-pack. His intense, bright green eyes were on me, making me shudder. As we approached him, he glanced at our joined hands. He murmured something and glared at my boyfriend. However, Daniel was
We arrived at my parents' house, and everyone awaited me, standing before the entrance. I left the car instantly and hugged my mom. She held me tightly, and then I hugged my father. Even though they visited me every three months, I still missed them dearly. I exchanged pleasantries with them and held Daniel's hand, " Mom, Dad, this is my boyfriend Daniel, babe, these are my parents, Nalya and Rhegar Silvius," I said. They shook hands, and we went inside the house. I felt a smile on my lips. I was so happy to be home. " You two should freshen up, and we'll have lunch in thirty minutes," Mom said. " Okay, Mom," Daniel and I started to walk upstairs when I heard a growl from Killian. We both turned and stared at him. "Parents, are you letting them stay in the same room?" he gritted his teeth. My parents exchanged a glance. " I'm sure they stayed together in Paris," Mom shrugged. My father scowled, sending a glare towards Daniel. This time, my boyfriend whimpered under my fat
I was right to dread it because Killian had invited Elise, his ex-girlfriend and now friend. However, the look in her eyes showed that she still wanted him. Elise and I didn't like each other. I thought she was too much and too clingy towards Killian. " You shouldn't come," I murmured to Killian as we approached his convertible. " No, we want to," he grinned. Daniel had a list of things he wanted to do today: visit the museum, take a hot-air balloon ride, and visit the waterfalls. " Just let them come, love. The more the merrier," Daniel chimed. " Yes! Thank you for texting me, Killian. You've made me happy," Elise smiles from ear to ear. Yep, she was. I sat in the back with Daniel while Killian was in the passenger seat with Elise. The girl ran her mouth and talked about all the modeling jobs she got with Killian's help. I rolled my eyes every second she opened her mouth because she was that vain. We first visited all the historical sites before riding the hot air balloon
Daniel used his phone to find another restaurant for us. He was mad that I hadn't told him I was in love with Killian. Oh, goddess, if only he knew I was still in love with Killian, except this time, my feelings are more substantial. That's why I'm gripped to Daniel's side. Maybe if I focused on him, I wouldn't think about Killian. We had finished eating and walked home. I grabbed his hand, pleased he didn't revolt against my touch. Once we reached home, Daniel kissed me and went to his room. He held my arm and got on my tiptoes, kissing his lips. " I'm sorry," I said quietly. " It's alright, love," he murmurs against my mouth. I kissed his neck, and he smiled, grabbing my ass and lifting me. I wrapped my legs around his waist and kissed him again. He grins, eyeing me intently, his eyes dark with lust. He kissed my neck, and his hands touching my skin made me shiver. However, knowing that Killian was somewhere in this house, nothing felt right about being touched by him l
My eyes opened the following morning to feature like kisses on my shoulder, and I smiled, recalling what happened last night. Killian said he loved me! I turned around, and he kissed me deeply before I could open my mouth. I answered his kiss, and when we pulled away, I caressed his stubble, " So, it wasn't a dream," I murmur. " No, it wasn't," he smiled, kissing my cheek. I laid on my back, arm over face. " What is it, Layla?" he asked concerned. " I need to talk to Dan and our parents," I sighed. " We'll talk to them together," he said. I smiled slightly at him. I was a little nervous. I rolled off the bed and kissed him as I went to take a shower. When I left the shower ten minutes later, Killian wasn't there. I went to my closet, put on a dress and pumps, fixed my hair, and then went to Daniel's room. I knocked three times, but there was no answer. I pushed the door open and stepped in. " Daniel?" The bed was already made, and his things were gone from the closet. I
I, alpha Connor Tomson, reject you, Elara Silvius, as—" he stops, and a wicked smile forms on his full lips. I won't reject you. You'll carry around the bond and get to suffer with it. It is payback for what your mother did to my sister," he sneers. Am I imagining this? What the fuck is happening right now. I can't speak. I'm too shocked. The room is spinning, and my heart is pounding against my chest. I finally open my mouth to speak, " But why?" my voice is a whisper. " Didn't you fucking hear me?" Alpha Connor is annoyed now. " I- I did, but why are you rejecting me? We mated," I say, looking around his suite. Our clothes clattered on the floor. He took my virginity! He walks towards me coldly, his face stoic. I'm going crazy with perplexity. Yesterday was the mating ball in the pack, and unmated wolves from different packs came to my pack, the Autumn Moon, hoping to find a prospective bride or mate. I wasn't expecting to find mine, but I did. It was Alpha Connor. He was
Connor I've spent years plotting against the Silvius family for what they did to my sister. Alpha Rhaegar Silvius. The King of the werewolf race promised her marriage, but as soon as he found his mate, he rejected and humiliated her. He threw her in the dungeons, and later, his mate, the Queen, killed my sister. She didn't deserve what happened to her. Juliana was kind and only wanted love from a bastard who didn't deserve it. I was only a child when this happened, but I saw the destruction it caused us. They cut us off financially. We still had money, but barely. My mother was stricken with grief, and it got worse when my grandfather died, and I had to take over. I was pleased then because I wanted it, unlike my grandfather, who didn't want retribution. I needed it. I worked hard and did odd jobs, betrayed my kind just for money to keep my pack running. I plotted the death of the Silvius. However, it was hard. They are wealthy and influential. No one would dare go against them. So,
Elara "Baby! Kill that bitch, she almost killed me!" the woman who insulted me exclaims. Babe? They are in a relationship that stings, especially with how she holds him. Her arm is around her waist as she cries. Connor notices my eyes on the woman's arm around him, and he scoffs. A smirk on his lips. He holds her waist. "Connor, tell me you will punish this woman!" she cries, looking to him for assurance. He kisses her lips and cups her face. "Of course," He was fucking doing that TO HURT ME. I hide my feelings of hurt and keep my face neutral. "I, Elara Silvius, reject you, alpha Connor, as my mate and alpha," I say calmly. Collective gasps erupt from the crowd, and they begin speaking amongst themselves. I watch Connor swallow, and he clutches his jaw in anger. What did he expect? That I will stay after the bullshit he did? He holds his chest in discomfort, and a moment of silence goes by when he speaks. "I reject your rejection. You're my mate, and you'll stay here and pay f
