DRUNK
Layla yawned stepping out from her room ot was late at night about 3’OClock. She couldn’t get some sleep so she wanted to grab a glass of milk to help herself.
She was walking to the fridge when she heard a slight noise.
“Who’s there?” She mumbled to herself wondering if it was Maddox there but she remembered seeing Maddox a few minutes ago sleeping near her door side. Well Maddox seemed to act clingy to get these days, it seemed as if he really liked her a lot
“Then who’s it?” She asked herself curiously. She was sure Carla was inside sleeping, they both retired to bed at the same time.
Taking quiet steps towards the kitchen, she saw a male fighter standing by the counter dressed in all black.
“Nolan..” she called softly unsure if he was the one. But Nolan was the only person she knew who loved dressing in black coloured clothes as he he was mourning someone, she couldn’t even recollect if she’d ever seen him wearing colourful clothes. It was always black.
“Hmm” he responded turning to face her.
“It’s you..” Layla mumbled fixing her eyes on his. He had a cigarette hanging on his lips, which made him look hot and bad on some way.
But she never knew he smoked, this was the first time she was actually seeing him with a cigarette.
“Why are you still awake?” He questioned puffing out smoke from his mouth.
“I came to grab a cup of milk..” she replied running to the fridge as she collected the can of milk before reaching out for a glass cup.
“I never knew you smoked..” she uttered curiousity getting the best of her, she should have just taken her glass of milk and leave but she wanted to know more about him.
She really wanted to know more about Nolan’s life, she really knew nothing about him, asides from his name and status.
“You don’t know anything about me Layla..” he stated as he looked outside the window.
“True..” Layla mouthed nodding her head. It was as if he just read what was going on inside her head.
“Care for some..” he offered her the pack of cigarettes as Layla choked on the milk she was sipping slowly. Was he seriously offering her cigarettes?
“Care for what??” She exclaimed in horror.
“A smoke?” He confirmed with a mischievous glint in his eyes.
“No, I don’t smoke!” She bluntly refused.
“Suit yourself then..” he turned away from her as he looked outside the window.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“I can’t believe you’re offering a lady cigarettes, that’s improper..” she pointed out.
“I love badass ladies, they’re the best to hang around with..” he deadpanned as Layla’s smile fell.
What did he mean by he loved badass ladies, she was far from being a badass.
Layla wanted to protest but then she remembered that he didn’t like her one bit and they were just mere mates who met by coincidence and didn’t want each other.
“I hope you meet one someday..” she said sarcasm laced in her voice.
“I wish I could, but it seems I’m tied to you for eternity..” he said shrugging his shoulders.
“There’s really nothing we can do, is it?” He questioned as their eyes met.
“But some men sleep around when they…”
“I’m not just some men Layla..” he emphasized.
“I hate men who cheats!” He confessed. That was the main thing that drew him to get at the bar, when she says her boyfriend cheated on her with her sister.
“Wow!” Layla gasped eye wide.
“Believe it or not!” He voiced out drawing out smoke from his mouth.
“I may have a lot of bad qualities but I don’t sleep around with women. If I did, do you think I would touch you despite the fact I don’t want you?” He asked. He was a man with desires.
“Don’t expect me to be celibate either..” he chuckled and Layla understood where he was pointing at.
He only touched her because of the burning desire within him, nothing else. He only did that to fulfill his sexual urge.
“When are you returning to your pack finally?” She asked.
“In a few days..” came his reply.
“I wanted to ask for a favor ” Layla requested. She would be leaving very soon, so she felt the need to tell Aurora about everything that had been going on in her life lately.
“What favor?” She was always asking for favors.
“Since I’d be leaving soon, I don’t know if it’s okay if I tell auror yeah he bought us I just feel like she should know about this you know she’s my best friend you know and um…we literally share secrets with each other. So I feel kind of bad for hiding this from her. She would worry too much about me and I don’t want that so please can I ….” She begged hoping he’d accept her request. She felt guilty hiding the truth from Aurora.
“You know Layla you’re always asking for favors..” he smacked his lips as Layla looked down picking her nails nervously.
“Humans are not allowed to know about us..” he said afterwards and Layla’s anticipation died down.
“I know but she’s not going….”
“I’ll think about it..” he chimed in as Layla breathed out in relief.
“Thanks Nolan..” She appreciated as she walked over to the sink to rinse off the cup she used in having milk.
She noticed a shadow towering behind her and when she was about to turn, she felt a hold around her waist.
“What are you doing?” She asked the person who was no other than Nolan. His strong masculine scent wafted through her nostrils.
“What do you think I’m doing?” He grilled in a dry voice and she felt his breath at one side of her neck.
“You’re drunk!” She voiced out softly as she smelled alcohol on him. He’d been really acting strange lately.
“I’m not..” he responded.
“What do you want?” She asked, breathing nervously.
“I want to f*ck your brains out until you forget your own name..” his voice rang in her ears and Layla felt goosebumps on her skin.
Nolan was sure of one thing, her body was an intoxication to him. He yearned for her body just like that way his wolf yearned for Layla, its mate.
