The Contract She Belongs To Me
LaylaI sat across from Heather at a small cafe, just a few blocks away from work. I won't lie. There are hundreds of questions surging through my noggin, and it's making me go crazy-nervous. Why the hell was she here? What could she possibly want to talk to me about, and Why the hell now? Did she not make Danny and Zoey suffer enough by lying to them? She made him believe she was Zoet]y was his daughter, and then, just took off. It tore Danny apart, and I don't even want to imagine how it may have affected Zoey. She was so little but she still got so attached to Danny. To have been yanked away from him and taken away. God, it makes my heart ache for them."Ok. So? What did you want to talk about, Heather? Why are you here? And, how do you even know who I am? We have never met, other than the day you and Daniel announced you were getting married." I said, making her sit with a silent stare. She looked deadly mad, but I don't think she was as pissed off as I was now, nor how mad Dann
The Contract They Knew
LaylaI had no desire on going back to work, but I dragged myself anyway. “Control yourself, Layla. God- what am I going to do?” I couldn't keep myself together, no matter how hard I tried. I walked slower than usual, not wanting to do a thing. My damn tears kept pouring out, and people kept looking at me weirdly. ‘Yes, people- I'm crying.’ I rolled my eyes, not carrying what they were thinking. I mean, have they never seen a girl cry while walking back to work before? Come on now. The worse thing is, I think a damn paparazzi took pictures of Heather and me back at the cafe. I swear I saw flashes go off, but I could be wrong. Maybe it was just the sun reflecting off of cars passing by. I wiped my face as best as possible and took a deep breath, holding onto my stomach. “Everything is going to be fine, right baby? It has to be. Your sister is going nowhere. I promise if it's the last thing I do.” need to stay positive, I can't let anyone know what's going on, and give myself off by
The Contract Trials Emerging
Layla✨✨The Next day✨✨I was too overwhelmed, so Danny thought it was best for me to take the day off. I woke up extremely early today, unable to sleep, but I stayed in bed, feeling much more tired than usual. Danny had even gotten up extra early to fix breakfast f0r me and had Bryce help him feed Zoey.I dreaded getting out of bed feeling myself heavy. I did anyway soon as I was feeling pressure under my tongue. I knew what was coming as my chest felt heavy, making me sprint toward the bathroom feeling the morning sickness sneak up on me. I dreaded the vile rising in me, making my stomach and chest hurt as I continued to vomit. When I finally finished, I was left with a huge pulsing headache. I sat with my back against the sink cabinet, massaging my temple as the throbbing continued. Riley is usually around and checks on me, but today she left to take Logan to his pediatric appointment. Poor little one came crying last doctor visit after getting shots. He enjoyed a nice warm chamom
The Contract Your Jealousy Is Showing
Danny"Yes, I will be there. Don't let her out of your sight, I don't care what you have to do. Stop her if you must." I gave Bryce commands as I spoke with him on the phone. I have been swampy with work, and I was trying to finish a damn order for the restaurant online as I talked with Bryce at the same time. "Damn it," I grunted, realizing I had marked the wrong damn brand of the chocolate we use for Layla's favorite dessert in my restaurant. I closed my eyes, p9nching the curve of my nose in frustration. "Everything alright, boss?" Bryce anticipated asking. He knew I have been in an ominous mood lately. "No, I- I'm fine, Bryce. Do what I asked, I will be there soon as I can." I said, clicking the phone to end the call. I saw and made the directions on my order, clicked away, and then pressed send. I approved the order immediately, grabbed my keys and coat, placing on me as soon as I possibly could, and made my way out the door. "Jen, I'll be out of the office for a few hours. If
The Contract Don’t Mess With My Sanctuary
Layla"I hate to think you've replaced me with someone else in that office, because if that is the case, you are in deep trouble, sir," I say as I stand before Danny's office. I've held out of the office for almost a week, but I had had enough. I can't keep myself cooped up in that house while everyone is running around like a headless chicken in the office.I had come to work, just to find that my office was gone. In place stood a bigger, fancier office with a whole living room space, filled with plants, flowers, books and so much more. The office was pretty, in warm tones of grey, gold, and blush pink. It had a few black pieces here and there giving it the final touch. But there were workers still there, fixing the electrical from what it seemed.Danny sits in his office with a pile of papers, samples of fabric, and a cup of coffee. God knows what number of coffee cups that is. He can drink two whole kettles of coffee while consumed in his work. He stands, obviously surprised to see

It was one of the only things that could content his heart in the middle of all the troubles that had been laid out before him.

The Contract Trapped In Deception
Daniel"Gids. Hey, it's Daniel. I think you were right about who was helping him. I got Bryce to put a tracker on her car. If all works out, you may be able to catch him soon. Where can we meet to work out the rest of our plan?" I said, fearing the worst. A few days ago, I got a call from Gideon. If things were bad right now, things got even worse the moment I took that phone call. Trevor had somehow gotten out of prison thanks to some guards that were paid off. I'm not clear as of yet who paid them off, but it has to be someone who obviously wants to mess with me and Layla. But little did those guards know that they would lose, their job for doing such a thing. I know damn well Tasha doesn't have the money to pay them off, so someone else has to be working with them. But... Who?The guards are now under custody and awaiting trial. I'm sure they'll enjoy a little jail time. I promised Trevor that he'd rot in jail, and I am a man of my word. I don't care if I have to spend the rest
The Contract Trevor and the Truth
💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨Layla"What if they take her from me, Mom? I can't do this. I won't be able to withstand it. She's my baby. Mine, not hers. She hasn't even seen her since before this whole thing started. Who is she trying to fool? Why is she doing this to us?" I was a wreck. My stupid emotions just keep getting the best of me. Stupid hormones! I felt a tiny stir from the baby, making me hold my stomach as I cried in front of my mom. She held me, hugging me around my shoulders and cupping my head. "Oh, ladybug! Don't cry, baby. Everything will be just fine. You know Daniel far too well. He will never allow anything to happen to our little Zoey. Heather will not get away with this. Zoey will not leave us, sweetie. Please, don't cry." she tried to console me, but to no avail. The days feel so long, and I dread the minutes to pass. Danny left a while ago for the court hearing and I begged him to take me, but he refused. He wanted to deal with all of this on his own, but... What if
