Все главы Second Chance Mate: Глава 51 - Глава 60

Layla’s POV It was all going to plan and I was elated that I had gotten up to this point.The hall was starting to get empty as people started leaving for the pack house, I was caught up with a few people I knew, Lunas of other packs, and all the others I couldn't refer to as my friends and I completely lost Ethan in the crowd. When I found my way around them, I searched for Ethan but I couldn't find him anywhere. Lowell came to me as I was about to walk out, I had to get fond of him because I had immediately noticed the closeness between him and Ethan. "Lowell, have you seen Ethan?" I asked as politely as I could. "Oh yes, he asked me to accompany you to the feast, he left while you were still busy with your friends." He replied in a plain tone. "Where is he? Did he have something urgent to do?" I asked curiously. His eyes flickered, and then he said, "Uhm...Yeah, he had some office work he had to go clear up before the feast started, he won't be long for sure." I nodded. "We

Ariah’s POV Just when I thought meeting Alpha James at the ballroom would be the worst thing to happen to me, there came Layla.What a bitch! I had to go change my outfit because I didn't want to go the rest of the night smelling like liquor. To be honest, I didn't want to go back there with everyone's eyes lingering on me, I became the center of attraction twice in ten minutes for opposite reasons. Lowell led me to a bathroom on the ground floor and left me with his suit as I rushed in. I washed my face and left the water running as I stared angrily at the mirror. I could have smacked the shit out of her if she wasn't who she was. "Ugh! This is so fucking annoying, I don't have another black dress!" I exclaimed as I brushed my face with my palms. Luckily I had no make-up on, if not, my face would have been a complete mess. "Then you can wear the white one," Leia said.There was a beautiful white dress in the wardrobe that I never thought I'd wear. "You said I was mourning, didn

Layla’s POVDid I spill the drink on her on purpose? Yes, it was completely intentional.Now, I regretted it though, she came back even better, even more daring and I could feel my blood just boiling like it was on a pressure cooker. I was very surprised by how Ethan reacted to the incident with Ariah, for I second there I thought he was going to lurch at me or something. That made me very suspicious, certainly, something must be going on between the both of them. Their relationship was certainly something more than what met the eyes. For a lot of reasons, that triggered my anger and curiosity even more, I flared up at Ethan. That was one thing I tried to control, my temper and the way words flew out of my mouth. My thoughts just couldn't leave Ariah, what was her position in the pack? She seemed to be someone very important, she showed up at the feast at my pack and now she was here. Although I hadn't caught sight of her at the coronation, she just had escaped my eyes then. If she

Ariah’s POVThe sun's rays penetrate through the windows and perched steadily on my eyebrows, jeering me out of the uneasy sleep with a sting in my eyelids. "Ugh!" I groaned, but there was worse to come for this very day than the annoying rays of the sun. I woke up with a sour taste in my mouth and my eyes were burning with laziness. What kind of a start to the day was this? I wasn't sure I had slept up to two hours, time had moved so fast, but in reality, I had slept for almost ten hours. I felt so exhausted and weak and what made it more dreadful was waking up to the realization that Layla was now Ethan's Luna. I clasped my head in my hands as my fingers ran through my hair, what a fucking occurrence! The day was going to be a miserable one, I could already see it. Let's just call it the first day of hell, the first out of many. By hell, I meant Layla's reign as queen, it was going to be chaotic and all those who had cheered for her would surely regret their actions. It wasn'

Ethan’s POV That feeling of waking up knowing that my relationship status had changed, I didn't like it one bit.I didn't know what it was that had made Layla gather all the maids in the pack house, but from the look on their faces, I knew Layla had been lying to me. They looked terrified and the look in Sally's eyes when she was chosen as Layla's maid was chilling, it was as if she had just been selected as a slaughtered sheep. Terror, her eyes had been filled with absolute terror, and that made my curiosity grow even more but I didn't question it yet. When it was just Layla and me, I turned and said, "You sure have a terrifying way of introducing yourself to people, those maids looked like they just came out of a horror movie that didn't sit well with them." She glared at me, "You don't have to worry about that, I'll get along with them just fine." She replied curtly. "Lycan packs aren't werewolf packs, Layla, you need to be careful of the way you treat those under you here,
