Chapter 24
Laila
I woke up the next morning when the sun was brightly shining in my room. I stretched across my bed. And groaned. I felt pain everywhere. My neck, arms, legs, feet, and abdomen were hurting. Oh, maan. I grunted again. But the dancing was nice. I smiled to myself.
And then memories of yesterday barged into my mind like a running herd of crazy elephants. The firm grip on my hand when he pulled me through the crowd, his s*xy look, his body pressed against mine, his warm hands touching me, the way he licked my neck and brushed my lips... So many details were engraved in my mind and body. I covered my face with my palms. What the f*ck did I do yesterday? I groaned again. Stupid, stupid, stupid me. I shouldn't have danced with him. I shouldn't have drunk tequila with him. And I definitely shouldn't have hugged or kissed him on the cheek. F*ck. What was I thinking? I have been resisting him all this time and now look at me! Where am I taking this now?

Laila-Stay very still.James commanded slowly. Oh.My.God. My brain stopped working. Time stopped existing. He slowly started to lean toward my face. I know where this is going. He tilted his head slightly. I can’t even say the word in my head. His eyes kept on flickering from my eyes to my lips and back. My heart rate spiked. I saw him slowly get closer to my face and I felt butterflies erupt in my stomach. He seemed unsure. I innerly smirked. This cocky, rich, and super-handsome guy looked afraid. Afraid I would pull away any second. Have I beaten him up this badly that he has got scared of me? Hmm, I didn’t like that thought. I liked brave and dominant guys, not weak. Though he didn’t seem weak. The way he commanded me to stay still sent a shiver down my spine. Wah, just relax. I started to get tired of my own overthinking.I took a breath in and stopped breathing. He was super close to my face now and he parted his li

LailaMy Sunday was slow till noon. Until I got a phone call from my boss, telling me that there was some disaster and asking me to help out with another project whose deadline was tomorrow morning. After grumpily making a deal about the payment, I agreed to help out. So, for the next 3 hours, I typed and read as fast as I could. I still needed to get ready for that date. At 3 p.m. I started to get stressed. So I typed faster. I quickly reread and hit send button. Okay. 3.20 p.m. I have 40 minutes. I can pull this off.I didn't waste time and jumped in the shower. From such intense work, I got a headache. I hoped that a shower would clear my head. I put shampoo in my hair and washed it throughout. While I shaved, I started to think this was such an annoying beauty standard. Just 60 (or so) years ago, ladies didn't shave at all and no one said a thing. My spiteful self thought that it was even chauvinistic.But I was too big of a coward to go aga

JamesTrue to her words she was ready in less than 20 minutes. One of the longest and most torturing 20 minutes of my life may I add. I stood and raked my eyes over her. She wore a gray-blue knitted woolen dress with long sleeves that ended just above her knee. She wore a black and golden belt to accent her waist. She had a gold pendant around her neck. Again there was no cleavage, the dress even covered all the shoulders and chests. She already wore knee-length boots on heels. Her hair was let open as always. Her makeup was accenting her eyes and lips. I was mesmerized. She looked so beautiful. Yet again I was stunned how she pulled off being so d*mn sexy without revealing any flesh.- You look beautiful.I said with a cheeky smile. She smiled without her teeth.- Thanks. Sorry for the delay, but I'm ready now, so we can hit the road.She said and I chuckled.- Always the bossy one.I stated. She frowned.- No

James- What?!Laila asked in shock.- What?I asked back with a frown. What's wrong with diamonds? Did she like other stones better? Like crystals?- James!She said in that warning tone. What now?- How much does it cost?She asked almost with anger.- It was...The way she asked me made me wanna spill the beans.- Why? It doesn't matter. It was nothing.I said with a frown and shake of my head. I wasn't going to tell her. We were interrupted as the waitress brought our desserts. We had chocolate cakes. I murmured a quick "thank you".-You rich people!She scolded me the moment the waitress was gone.- I can’t accept it, James!She said defiantly.-Why not?I asked frustrated.-I feel… It makes me feel uncomfortable.She said with a frown and shake of her head.-Because those a

James-Mr. Montgomery, thank you for inviting me for the dinner. I appreciate it. Unfortunately, it has been a long day and I will take my leave now.What? She became completely formal and cold to me. I jumped up from my seat making my chair fall on the floor which startled some other customers that were sitting near us. I was speechless. What is going on? She nodded her head to me as a sign of respect and goodbye. Then she started to move towards the door.-No! Wait! Stop!I got my voice back and ran to her and grabbed her by her elbow to stop her. I turned her towards me. The electrical sparks that shot through my skin burned my body even more with desire but I had to get my head out of my d*ck. Literally. She looked at her arm where my hand was holding it and then slowly turned her gaze up to me. Her eyes said it all. She was angry and pissed and probably even livid. I could hear her voice in my head saying to me “How

JamesIt was Monday morning when I entered the kitchen fresh after shower. The morning training was the perfect way to release my frustration after the disastrous date. It was the second time in a few weeks that I scr*wed up things. Lucas noticed my sour mood as he was eating dirt again and again. He commented about me being upset a lot, but I just growled and kept on sparring. I remember how he danced with Laila and kicked his *ss badly. As we were cousins with Lucas, we were pretty evenly matched. Though he was the Beta of the pack, most of the time it was 50/50 who won the sparring matches. But today I was p*ssed and upset so I gave everything I got in the training. It did help. I felt I unwound most of the pent-up energy.As I entered the kitchen, my family was sitting around the breakfast table. I plotted down on the closest chair and huffed. All the heads turned to me and four pairs of eyes looked at me with several questions swirling in them. I

LailaWorking days ran by as I had a lot of things to do. There was a certain someone in the background of my thoughts, but I kept on ignoring and cutting his mental image. It usually helps, but he persistently stayed at the back of my mind. My thoughts just kept on drifting back to him. It was annoying for me. He was annoying me even when he was not around. Was he truly annoying me? My consciousness was digging for the truth. It doesn't matter. He was invading the space in my head. I wasn't an obsessive girl. My life didn't rotate around men. I enjoyed my life alone as well. I didn't need an intruder. So I distracted myself as much as I could.Though I usually check social media once a week at the weekends, I was a bit bored and sought distractions. As I checked my account, I saw a friend request. And what do you think? It was him again- James Montgomery. I scrunched my nose. I clicked on his profile picture. There he was in all his muscular glory in

James We were sitting in another vegetarian-friendly place I found online and waiting for our food to arrive. I looked at Laila with a satisfied smile. - So... A million reasons why Latvia is the best country in the world? I said, with a teasing smile. Her eyes widened. - Oh no! You found that? She hid her face in her palms. And then looked at me again. - Well, that's the ugly truth about my country. She said with a nod. - Did you understand it? She asked with curiosity. - Most of it yes, I did. I replied. - Did you have fun? She asked in a teasing manner. - Yes, I did. And many things I could relate with. People make similar failures here as well, so you are not the only ones. I winked at her. - Good to know. She said with a nod and soft smile. - I like to see that you are more laid back me. More playful. I said thoughtfully. - Well... As I said before thinking of myself as your cousin made me relax. She said with a nod. Oh no, did she put me in a platonic love co
