Layla

I wake up disoriented, suddenly remembering last nights events I sit up straight in bed. Looking over I see tall, dark and handsome Basil still sleeping.

I'm delighted I lost my virginity to him, when his friend approached us in the club and told us the club owner wanted to see us I didn't want to get involved, but I'm glad I did.

Basil caught my eye from the first moment I saw him, his black curly hair that became untamed as soon as I ran my hands through them, his light green eyes that were the same shade as the leaves of a flower blooming on a spring day. He had to be 6'4, a whole foot taller than my 5'4 frame. When he stripped in front of me I was gawking at his display of skin, his chest, his arms his whole body were corded in muscles, for a man his age he sure did keep his body in top shape. His chest and arms were covered in tattoos, skulls, demons, angels, roses and some scripture that I wasn't able to read, too entranced in the way he made my body reach euphoria that I could never achieve by myself or with anybody else.

I look back at him, my body starts getting excited remembering all the ways he touched me last night. Checking the time I see it's 5 in the morning, slowly removing his arm from across my chest. I start getting dressed, calling for a taxi I quickly exit his room and his home. Getting in the taxi I glance back, I'll always remember the night I lost my virginity to Basil, the best night of my life.

Arriving at the hotel, I enter the room me and Mackenzie are sharing. I see her passed out on the bed, snoring so loudly I'm sure the people next door can hear her.

"Mackenzie, wake up." I shake her, assuming she drank past her limits last night the only way to wake her is with cold water straight to the face. Walking in the bathroom I fill a cup full of water, coming back out I dump its contents in her face.

"What the fuck?!" She wakes up spluttering, her mascara runs down her face, her blonde hair is all over the place looking like a bird nest.

"Hurry up and pack, we have to be at the airport by 9." Even though we stayed for 1 week, it was the best week of my life. We have to be at the airport around 7 and it's already 15 minutes till 6.

"Alright, I shouldn't have drank so much. I have this pounding headache." She rubs her temples in circles.

"Anyways, did you get lucky last night?" She asked, the reason why we went to the club last night was to find someone to lose my virginity to. She didn't want me going back to Florida a virgin.

"I did." I said smiling.

"Ohhh, you lucky bitch, I didn't get shit last night."

"If you didn't drink so much you could've found a hot Greek to spend the night with." I told her.

"How was it? Was it big? Was it good?"

"It was the best, better than anything I've ever experienced and yes it's big." She screams in excitement.

"Yes! My best friend isn't a virgin anymore." Jumping up and down on the bed, she says it in a singsong voice.

"Hurry up and start packing we only have an hour till we have to check out."

We arrived at the airport at 7, we quickly check in and wait for our flight.

"I'm going to miss this place" Mackenzie said, staring at the beautiful view out the window.

"Me too." I tell her, because it's true. I'll miss this place and Basil too.

Basil

Waking up I check the time on my nightstand and see it's a bit past nine, I have never slept in past six another first for me.

Checking the spot next to me it's empty and cold. What the fuck?, I get up and put on some loose pants.

Going into my security room, I go through the cameras and see she left around five. I immediately call Andre.

"Andre, find out where Layla went."

"Yes, afentikó." I hang up.

Making my way downstairs I make myself a cup of coffee. She thinks she can run from me? Wherever she goes I will know. I will follow her until she's ready to be my wife. I will make sure that she will touch no other, that she will not look at another.

My phone rings bringing me out of my thoughts.

"Afentikó, they checked out of their hotel at 6 and left for the airport. Their flight left at 9." Fuck, it's past nine, she's not in Greece anymore.

"Have Apollo follow her and keep an eye out on her. I want reports everyday. What she eats for breakfast down to what she's wearing. katalavaíneis?" (You understand?) Apollo is one of my guys, I usually have him tail people that I'm suspicious about but I trust him to watch Layla and report everything back to me.

"Yes afentikó."

I toss my phone on the counter.

"Skatá!" (Shit) I yelled in frustration. I'm irritated that she left me, I'm not usually a light sleeper but being in her embrace I slept like a baby. Don't worry Layla I will be coming for you.
