Gideon And Layla Novels & Stories

What a coincidence! “Yes. It was good you listened to mummy.” “Is Ariadne a bad lady?” He frowned. “No, she's not.” “Will mummy allow me to say hi another time?” He queried. “I wouldn't know that, but if you keep being a good boy she may.” I gave him hope. I wouldn't know why Layla had prevented him from greeting Ariadne. Could they have had a past together, or she wasn't just interested in being one of the paparazzi?

How dare they sit and watch while our kind slaughters one another? Smoothing his fingers down his neatly trimmed beard, Gideon smiled enthusiastically. He snapped at the warriors standing at our back, “Bring me the Alpha, Luna, and my whore of a daughter. As for the other three…” He hummed thoughtfully. “Well, I have no use for a truth teller, and with Kalix, I have no need for astral projection. Slit their throats. Oh, and the girl’s too. Shayla, right? Yes, kill all three of them.” “NO!” Jada screamed and begged as the warriors shoved her and Hakeem forward.

In my last life, I died three days after Layla Vale became a "savior." Even as she injected concentrated wolfsbane into my IV, she practiced her funeral face in front of a photograph of Seraphina Blackwood. "Once she's dead, I'll be remembered as her savior. Adrian will fall for me sooner or later. Rowan, why did you have to call the police and ruin everything?" I tried to pull the needle out, but my wrist was pinned to the bed. The Vales reminded me that they had taken me in from an orphanage, paid my tuition, and given me a home. So writing Layla's fraudulent interview copy, covering up the wolf-luring resin, and finally dying in her place were all debts I owed her. When I opened my eyes a

Reyes was still screaming when the door shut behind me, the sound swallowed fast by concrete and distance, and by the time I reached the top of the stairs, I couldn't hear him at all. ———— Layla’s POV I was in trouble. Not the kind of trouble that could be solved by signing another contract, lying to another person, or pretending I wasn’t terrified. This was worse. I was trapped inside the very house I had spent months planning to enter and somehow, the man I had sworn to destroy had decided I belonged in his bedroom. I sat on the edge of the armchair near the window, staring into the darkness outside. The Cross estate looked different at night.

He added and I knew it was over for me, Layla was gone for good. He received a phone call while I was trying to process the whole thing then his mood changed immediately. “Layla got attacked and Nelson got kidnapped.” “What??” TBC Oh no,what happened to Layla?

Leave it to them to keep her from spiraling completely when her thoughts threatened to run wild. Bas: He’s a man about to talk to his baby momma for the first time in eight years. Give the man a minute to breathe. Lai: You better not be rooting for Team Jackass. Bas: As always, I am rooting for Team Laya. She’s the real winner here. And technically, she’s getting her wish. The words hit harder than Laila expected, landing somewhere deep in her chest. Laya getting her wish—that was the only reason she’d agreed to any of this. The only reason she’d unlocked the door instead of bolting it shut and pretending the past couldn’t reach her.

Nathaniel stepped off. Hayley stood there in silence again. She scanned the group around him, her gaze lingering on Gideon. "You end up with that girl who borrowed a pad from me?" When Gideon heard that Hayley still remembered him and Shana from when they had fled together during the rescue at Ark One base, he froze for a second. Then, a smile broke across his face. "Yeah," he said. "We got married." "Congrats," Hayley said, patting his shoulder. "I'll send you a wedding gift later. Wish you both a happy marriage."

] [Can't you do this for me? I sent a bunch of text making Layla speechless. Finally, Layla relented. [Layla: Aghh! Fine! I'll show you my talent in cooking!] [Don't poison me.] [Layla: *crying emoji* I'll do my best.] I smiled in triumph. Layla was weak to guilt-tripping. I opened Kane's tab and saw his messages. [Kane: Who?] [Kane: Gab and Levi?] [Kane: You are not with them.]

“What do you mean?” Layla's smile grew wider. “I knew they were watching us, waiting for us to slip up. So, I staged the whole thing, the argument, the breakup, the departure. It was all a ruse.” She smiled. “I would never argue with you Alex. Neither will abandon you.” My mind reeled as I processed her words. I was glad she didn't abandon me. “And Julian and Sophia bought it? Those fools.” Layla nodded. “Hook, line, and sinker. They think I've given up on us, on our plans. But in reality, I've been gathering evidence, following their trail, and waiting for the perfect moment to strike.”

Scrutinized by judging eyes, I felt myself grow smaller with each step I took—and there was the overwhelming urge to hide away behind Gideon. “Oh, I do know you—the whole pack knows you.” “You are exactly just as they say you are, evil. Only a person so evil can take another woman’s—” She never did complete the words, but I knew exactly what she’d have said if Gideon hadn’t stopped her. After what felt like a lifetime, we got to the car, I placed Layla in the back seat, before sliding into the passenger seat. “What was that about?” I questioned the moment Gideon got in.
