The question hung in the air inevitably. Nadia didn’t speak because she already knew.

Layla closed her eyes slowly while her fingers curled into fists at her sides.

Everything had just changed now. The silence didn’t break but stretched in thick and suffocating,heavy enough to press against Layla’s chest until breathing itself felt like effort.

She still hadn’t turned around. Her back faced them while her hands hung stiffly at her sides, fingers curled slightly like she was holding onto somethi

  • Seven Minutes with my Ex's Uncle    Guilt and pain

    The car stopped right in front of the house with a sudden screech of tires.Its bright headlights poured through the open front door, lighting up the terrible scene inside.Layla was still kneeling on the floor, holding her mom’s hand tightly.Tears streamed down her face without stopping with her whole body shaking with fear and pain.She couldn’t stop crying. The silence after the gunshots felt heavier than anything she had ever known.A car door slammed shut and heavy footsteps rushed toward the house.“Layla!”It was Elias’s voice — loud, desperate, and full of panic.Layla didn’t look up right away.She was too scared and too broken but when the footsteps came closer, she slowly raised her head.Elias burst through the open door and the moment he stepped inside and saw the scene, he froze.His body went completely still as his eyes widened in shock as they landed on Layla’s mom lying face down in a pool of blood near the door.Blood everywhere.The terrible stillness.The smell o

  • Seven Minutes with my Ex's Uncle    Nightmare

    Layla stood in the kitchen, her hands still wet from washing the last plate.Her heart had been beating fast ever since Elias sent the message that he was on his way.The doorbell rang clearly through the house.Layla’s eyes widened. She quickly dried her hands on the towel and turned to her mom.“Mom, I think someone is at the door. Let me go see who’s at the door. Please.”Her mom gave her a gentle but firm look.She wiped her own hands slowly.“I already know who it is, sweetheart. Stay here. I will go welcome him myself. It’s better this way.”Layla forced a small fake smile on her face. She nodded even though she didn’t want to.“Okay, Mom.”Inside, her stomach felt tight. She wanted to run to the door, open it, and see Elias’s face first. She wanted to hold his hand for just one second before the hard talk started but she stayed in the kitchen like her mom asked.Her mom walked out of the kitchen toward the front door. Layla could hear her footsteps on the wooden floor.She stoo

  • Seven Minutes with my Ex's Uncle    A difficult start

    After dropping Layla off three blocks from her house, Elias sat in the back of the black car for a long minute.He watched her walk away until she disappeared behind the gate.His chest felt tight. He could still feel her body against his and still smell her on his skin.The memory made him smile, but it also made him more determined.“Home,” he told the driver quietly.The car moved smoothly through the city streets. Elias leaned his head back and closed his eyes.He needed to prepare. Tonight he was going to face Layla’s father.He was going to tell him the truth — that he loved his daughter, that he would protect her, and that nothing would stop him.When he reached his penthouse, the place felt too quiet and too big.Elias went straight to his bedroom and took a long, hot shower.He washed slowly, thinking about how he would speak to Layla's father tonight.After the shower, he dressed carefully.A clean dark shirt that fits perfectly, black pants, and simple but expensive shoes.

  • Seven Minutes with my Ex's Uncle    Everyone else's fault

    Liam sat on the cold metal bench in the small holding cell at the police station.The lights were too bright while the air smelled like old sweat and cleaning chemicals.His head pounded from all the alcohol he had drunk at the club with his shirt torn at the collar.His hands still shook a little.He kept banging on the bars with his palm.“Hey! You hear me? Call my dad! Ross Carter! He’ll fix this. Just call him!”The officer sitting at the desk nearby didn’t even look up at first.Liam raised his voice louder.“I said," Call my dad! Or my mom! This is bullshit. That girl was asking for it. I didn’t do anything wrong!”He stood up and kicked the bench. The loud clang echoed down the hallway.Other officers glanced over but stayed calm.They had seen drunk rich kids before.“Call them now!” Liam shouted again.His face was red as sweat ran down his neck.“I’m not staying here another minute. My family has money. You’ll regret this if you don’t call right now!”He kept making noise —

    Layla slipped through the side gate of her house, heart still beating fast from everything that happened with Elias.The cool air touched her face, but her body felt warm and soft inside.Her legs were a little shaky. Every step reminded her of how Elias had been deep inside her in that big luxurious resting room — the way he stretched her, the way he thrust hard, the thick warmth of his cum that still made her feel full.She smiled quietly to herself and touched her dress.She looked up at the windows.Chloe was already there, peeking out from Layla’s bedroom window.When Chloe saw her, she grinned wide, waved excitedly and disappeared from the window right away.Layla hurried inside through the side door and closed it softly. The house was quiet because her parents were not yet back.Only Chloe was there.Chloe might have covered for her the whole time. Chloe came running down the stairs, her socks sliding a little on the floor.She grabbed Layla’s arm and pulled her straight into

  • Seven Minutes with my Ex's Uncle    Sneaky smile

    Elias and Layla stepped out of the private resting room together.The big luxurious suite still smelled like them — sweat, sex, and the soft scent of Layla’s skin.The silk sheets on the huge bed were still messy and wrinkled as the air felt warm and heavy.Layla’s cheeks were still a little pink.Her new dress fit perfectly, well,thanks to Serena.She felt sore between her legs in the best way. Every step reminded her of how deep Elias had been inside her, how hard he had come, how his cum had filled her up.She squeezed her thighs together secretly and smiled to herself.Elias had changed into a fresh black shirt and pants.He looked calm on the outside again, like the powerful man everyone feared but his eyes were softer when he looked at Layla.He took her hand in his. Big, warm fingers wrapped around hers. They held hands tightly as they walked out of the resting room and into the main office.Layla felt it—the weight of that simple act—as they walked forward together, their step

    Layla froze completely. Her eyes widened as her heart slammed against her chest.Then came another knock.“Layla?” Her mother called.Layla’s breath hitched. Her grip tightened around the phone.She looked at the screen—At Elias while panic flooding her expression.“I—” she whispered.“Layla, are

    Dawn had already begun to bleed into the sky by the time Elias stepped out of Ross Holdings.The city was quiet in that strange, suspended way—where the night hadn’t fully let go, but the day was already claiming its space. Cool air,empty streets,a faint glow stretching across the horizon.Elias ad

    “Let’s begin,” he said.No one spoke immediately because no one wanted to be the first.Finally—One of the board members cleared his throat.“Mr. Carter… I think we should address the situation directly.”Ross nodded slightly.“Go ahead.”The man hesitated.Then said it.“Most of the shares… have

  • Seven Minutes with my Ex's Uncle    Quiet morning

    Morning came too quickly. Layla didn’t remember falling asleep.She only remembered staring at the ceiling… replaying everything… until her thoughts blurred into nothing.A soft weight landed on the bed.Then—A warm nose nudged her cheek.“Mm…” Layla stirred slightly, her brows pulling together.T
