Layla had always been drawn to Nolan but she never thought she'd act on it. He did not like her after all. But one night, everything changed. They found themselves alone together, and she couldn't resist the pull she felt towards him. From that night on, they began to hook up whenever they could. But as time went on, Layla started to develop feelings for Nolan that went beyond just physical attraction.As time went on, Layla struggled to reconcile her feelings for Nolan with the reality of their situation. She knew they couldn't be together as true mates. And she also knew that she couldn't continue to deny her feelings. So she did the only thing she could think of - she tried to distance herself from him. But every time she tried to stay away, she found herself drawn back to him. It was like a magnet, pulling her towards him no matter how hard she tried to resist.She felt maybe it was because of the mate bond between them.The more she thought about it, the more sense it made. She'
Nolan's and Xander's car arrived almost at the same time."We're here!" Xander announced happily as Layla alighted from the car along with Nolan.She stared at the open club which was buzzing with life. She shouldn't have come here. Layla immediately began to reject her decision, she felt quite uncomfortable.She rubbed her hands as she inhaled sharply, she was dressed in a simple blue jumpsuit."Come on in.." Xander invited as they all walked into the club. The music was loud and pulsing, and the lights were flashing in every direction. People were laughing and dancing, and the whole place was alive with energy. Layla was overwhelmed as she looked around. This was her first time visiting a club.She could tell this was no ordinary club, judging from the people she saw. They were all rich folks everywhere.Xander led them to a quiet corner and Nolan went to sit down immediately, he brought out a packet of cigarettes from his pockets which he began to descend on.Xander on the other ha
Nolan's eyes were fixed on Layla and Regan, a storm of emotions swirling within him. He felt a strange mixture of happiness and jealousy, a confusing combination that left him feeling unsettled. He watched as Layla laughed and danced, her face glowing with joy. He wanted to be the one to make her smile like that, to be the one to make her feel so carefree. But he also felt a pang of envy, seeing Regan so close to Layla. He knew he had no right to feel that way - after all, he was the one who had pushed Layla away.But then he allowed his anger to get the best of him as he stood up in a rage walking over to the dance floor.As Nolan approached, Layla felt a chill run down her spine. She turned and saw him, his expression dark and unreadable. Regan also noticed Nolan, and he let go of Layla's hand. "Nolan," she said, a hint of caution in her voice. "What's going on?" Nolan ignored Regan, his gaze fixed solely on Layla. "What do you think you're doing?" he asked, his tone sharp and a
Nolan's knuckles were turning white as he gripped the steering wheel, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. The speedometer was creeping higher and higher, and Layla could feel the car straining beneath them. She wanted to tell him to slow down, but she was too afraid to speak. The sound of the engine was deafening, and the world outside the car seemed to blur by in a dizzying rush. Layla closed her eyes, trying to block out the fear that was threatening to overwhelm her."Please stop this, Nolan.." she managed to say. He was a Lycan, she was human, and if they were to get into an accident, she would lose her life."Not another word from you Layla, I've warned you to start away from other men, but you wouldn't just listen would you?" He scoffed. The fact that she agreed to take the punishment for Regan, angered him the most. He would teach her never to dare him again.Layla's heart sank as she realized that Nolan was truly angry. She'd never seen him like this before, and it scared her. S
NOTICE: THERE'S GOING TO BE TORTURE IN THE NEXT FEW SCENES, PLEASE SKIP IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE COMFORTABLE WITH IT. XOXO AUTHOR.….."Please Nolan let me go..." She cried, throwing her hands in the air."you're only going to pay for your sins," he scoffed, taking her straight to his room.Layla's heart sank as he carried her into the room. She knew that whatever was about to happen, wasn't going to be good. She felt powerless and helpless like she was at his mercy."Nolan please don't.." Layla begged in agony. She was helpless.She didn't know what to do, what to say. She felt like she was trapped, with no way out. "I'm so sorry, I am." She felt a tear roll down her cheek, and she wiped it away. "Please forgive me."But he didn't listen to her as he threw her on the bed like some rag doll.Layla tried to move, to fight back, but she was no match for him. He held her down, his grip like iron. She felt a panic rising in her chest, and she tried to scream, but no sound came out. She
Layla couldn't step out of her room throughout that night, she was weak. She couldn't even move a finger.She had tried getting up from her bed but couldn't. Her whole body ached, and she felt a splitting headache as well.She also felt like her life was slowly slipping away.Layla's mind was consumed by fear, sadness, and confusion. She couldn't eat, she couldn't sleep, and she couldn't think straight. She felt like she was losing herself like she was being consumed by darkness. She knew she needed help, but she didn't know where to turn. She felt like she was alone in the world, and she was sinking deeper and deeper into despair.Throughout that night, Nolan didn't bother to check up on her. She was without food and water.And the next morning he just left without checking up on her.She had expected him to come, but he didn't. She never knew he was this heartless.She wanted to call for help but couldn't, her phone was probably in Nolan's car. If not she would have called either Au
"Stupid asshole!!" Carla cursed under her breath as she made her way out of the company. Not only was she completely ignored by Nolan, but she was also insulted by Xander and that was something she was not going to take."Please where can I find Layla, Layla Markos?" She heard someone ask and she stopped in her tracks.It wasn't the fact that someone was asking after Layla that pinned her interest, it was the surname.Layla just come to New York so whoever was that, knew Layla well enough to know her surname.She turned to see a lady dressed extravagantly with a lot of makeup on her face. Curiosity got the best of her as she approached the lady."Hi…" she waved at her."How can I help you?" Scarlet asked with a frown on her face."I'm Carla.." she introduced herself."So what do you want me to do about it?" Scarlet asked rudely and Carla clenched her fist.How dare the strange woman talk so rudely to her? She thought."I see you're looking for Layla?" She pointed out swallowing her
Layla was losing it, she started to feel dizzy and lightheaded. Her body ached, and she felt like she was going to pass out. She was so thirsty, and she could feel her strength waning. She knew she needed to get help, but she was too weak to move. Her stomach ached in pain, it grumbled out of hunger and her throat ached also.She started to feel hot and clammy, and her head was spinning. She tried to sit up, but she was too weak. She began to panic, her mind racing with thoughts of what might happen to her. She felt like she was slipping away like she was losing her grip on reality.She couldn't afford to lose her baby, so with the little strength she could muster, she slowly crawled out of the bed, straight to the ground as she tried to crawl to the door.She was trying to do so when she heard her name."Layla, Layla!!" It was Nolan's voice. The door sprang open and Nolan came into view as he breathed deeply. He was shocked to see Layla on the ground."Layla..." He uttered softly as
