(Layla's POV)


The next morning when I woke, I was in his bed lying on his chest while he slept peacefully. It was nice to wake up in someone's arms, especially his after we agreed to become one with another and date, no matter what our families thought of one another. We both deserved happiness, and he seemed like the right guy that I wanted to be with. In my eyes, he was perfect, he could have killed me the day he saw me, but he didn't. Instead, he warned me about the attack that was going to happen to the pack that his sister was planning.

I rubbed my eyes before sitting up in bed and I froze, seeing a woman sitting in the chair staring at us. She smirked.


"Well good morning." She said casually.


"Seb." I said, shaking him awake as I was scared, seeing this woman again frightened me.


He woke instantly before sitting up and getting annoyed to see her as he shot up from bed to stand in front of it.

"What are you doing here? You can't just come inside without knocking or asking permission! I told you I wanted no part in your nasty plan.." He barked at his sister, who sat there smiling at him.


"Oh come on, I was curious to why you didn't want in on the plan but now I see why.. Sleeping with the enemy? Really that's how low we are going to go little brother." Amy stood up from her chair and walking in front of him.


"She doesn't concern you or them.. This is your fight, not ours.. Come to the kitchen so we may talk." He glared down at her. He was tall compared to her, but she was still his elder sister. He looked at me once before walking out the room grabbing his shirt.


She smirked, looking at me one more time before leaving and the door was shut behind them, leaving me inside the room alone. I was nervous. Could I trust him.. He said he loved me. I actually said it back.. He did stand there and seemed to care for me.. My mind was spinning as I kept thinking of my brother and how upset he would be at me. I sighed before moving some to grab my phone. I turned it on, letting it load up before watching my phone buzz like crazy with missed calls and text messages from everyone. I groaned, lying down on the pillow, still watching the phone go off. Fifty missed calls from my brother and the pack over one hundred text messages from them as well.. How annoying. Though I couldn't get mad as they were just worried about me.. But I was mad at them and refused to give in.


Sebastian came back inside the room after some bit as I sat up worried. He gave a small smile before sitting down on the bed near me. "I am sorry about her.. She knows she isn't allowed here.. Don't worry, she just wanted to check on me is all.. I told her to knock next time." He told me, sighing as he held my hand, then noticed my phone.


"Ahh, seem's your having family issues to?" He asked, smirking.


"Yep and I am going to text my brother that I am fine and just want to be alone and away from the pack.. I don't trust them nor him and I want to live my life and not be trapped inside that house with them." I said, sighing as I started to text my brother a long message before pushing send and putting it back on silent, placing it on the night table.


"I don't blame you. Maybe when you're ready, I can meet him and show him I am not like them.. I actually care for you." He said, touching my cheek gently.


"My brother is hard-headed but hopefully, Mira talked some sense into him.." I laughed, leaning into his touch.


"We can only hope.. Though, I will apologize for my sister being here when you wake up.. Your heart was pounding and I never want you to be afraid like that again.." He whispered, leaning forward to place a kiss on my head.


"Well she did try and hurt me at the house.. So, of course, I am afraid of her.." I mumbled gently.


"I didn't know she attacked you at the house.." He whispered as his voice held anger.


I nodded my head.

"Her goal was Mira but I was bait I suppose."


He shook his head, standing up to look out the window annoyed. "I won't let her near you again, even if I have to break ties with her.. You're important to me just like she is, but I won't stand for her hurting someone I want to start a life with." he said.


I stood up from the bed and walked over, hugging him from the back as I smiled.

"Thank you, Sebastian, for caring for me.. For saving me that day from heartbreak.." I whispered into his back, tearing up.


He turned and held me in his arms before lifting my chin to stare at my eyes.

"Only an Idiot will be stupid enough to cheat on someone so perfect and pure.." He whispered leaning in for a kiss, which I accepted and kissed his lips gently.


"How did I get so lucky to have you in my life?" I giggled, staring up into his big blue eyes.


He winked at me as he picked me up and tossed me over his shoulder.

"I say a nice home-cooked meal and some movies will make us feel better about our shitty family issues." He laughed, walking out the room.


I laughed with a smile on my lips as I swatted at his butt playfully as he walked.

"I agree." I said as we walked to the kitchen. He set me down, and we began to cook together in the kitchen, trying to forget our family drama about wanting to kill one another.
