Hiding the Alpha’s Baby (Layla and Alexander’s)

LAYLA

From behind the fallen wall, I observe the view. The shooting continues. My eyes flicker to the enemy side where I notice the familiar face.

Cleodore.

My heart misses a beat. He is rushing towards a car to escape this scene because Alex’s men are dominating the war.

Alex. He is getting away. ‘I scream but the voice only resonates inside my head.

‘I know, Layla.’ He grunts, surprisingly answering me.

Surprise flashes across my nerves. Did he just talk inside my head? Is this what it feels like to mind link?

Getting over the initial shock, I notice Alex shifting into a big black wolf and chasing down the racing black car. My heartbeat speeds up as I emerge from behind the rumble, ready to run behind him if necessary.

In the distance, before Cleodore’s car can turn right, several other cars block his path after rounding the curve.

Instantly, I recognize the cars. They belong to Theo’s Pack. He is here.

Confirming my doubt, Theo steps out as soon as the cars stop and block Cleodore’s path. With a screeching noise, Cleodore presses the brake.

It looks like a scene from a movie as they all surround Cleodore, closing on him from all sides.

Adrenaline pumps into my veins. The shooting around me stops as Levi overpowers the other men, kills the most, and makes the surrendering ones kneel on the ground.

Taking this chance, I make my way towards Alex. But he is already walking towards Cleodore’s car, just like Theo.

Pulling the door open, Theo grabs Cleodore’s collar and drags him out.

‘Little Bro. ” Cleodore chuckles.

“I am nothing to you. Dad disowned you and wants you dead for your crimes. ” Theo growls.

The anger on Theo’s face is palpable. I have not seen him like this before.

But-”

Before Cleodore can say anything more, Theo punches his face. The former man falls onto the ground, and Theo straddles him, delivering punch after punch.

Cleodore’s mad laughter fills the space, making everyone turn uncomfortably in their spots.

Alex shifts back to his human form, towering above the two brothers. His hands close around Theo’s shoulder as he drags him away from Cleodore.

I breathe a sigh of relief, wanting to shift too but seeing Alex naked has me thinking otherwise. It will be embarrassing to shift to my human form for the first time in front of so many men.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

I can’t wait to kill you.” Alex smirks, looming over Cleodore.

His laughter ceases. Now the threat is sinking in.

When you kill me, someone else will take my place quickly. This business will never end and this empire will never come down.” Cleodore scoffs.

But I am here to kill every one of you. After you, I will hunt down everyone who takes your place. I will keep at it until the last of you is dead.” Alex grabs Cleodore by the collar and lifts him.

You will never succeed, Alpha Alexander. ” Cleodore sneers.

But I will succeed in killing you.” Alex pushes him away and stretches his hand towards Levi who approaches slowly.

Levi hands Alex the gun and steps back. Alex takes off the safety and points the gun at Cleodore.

Wait! “Fear flashes across Cleodore’s face as he raises his arms in front of him. “I can give you information. You should keep me alive.

Information?” Alex tilts his head and smirks.

Yes, I can-

Before Cleodore can finish, a gunshot rings out in the air. I flinch and notice the gaping hole in Cleodore’s chest, right where his heart is.

“I have all the information, Cleodore. And what I don’t know, I will find out on my own. There is no way I will let you live after you dared to touch my daughter.” Another gunshot rings out in the air, turning everyone silent.

After that, Alex fires until there are no bullets left in the gun. My horrified eyes remain on Cleodore, whose body hits the ground, his eyes wide open in terror and blood making a pool around him.

As life slips away from his eyes, and his body, it feels like a bad chapter of my life is coming to an end. His death brings me a bitter relief, and a twisted sense of satisfaction gnaws at my guts.

He is gone. So many girls will be saved. He is not there to threaten my Baby again. All those thoughts make me halt in my place.

Unconsciously, my gaze is drawn to Theo’s face to see how he feels but there is only anger in his eyes and no pity, no pain. I sigh in relief.

For a while, everyone watches the scene, relishing the victory and the fact that an evil man has died.

Then, cheers erupt. This war is over and we are victorious. Warriors praise their Alpha and Beta, cementing their loyalty to them with their words.

In that moment of victory, Alex turns to me and comes rushing as he avoids the rest of the world.

My chest fills with pride and love as he holds me and my body starts to shift back.

Turn around everyone!” Alex commands.

The cheers die as everyone turns their back to us. Alex bends down and scoops me up in his arms before carrying me to his car where clothes await.

He hands me his T-shirt and takes the sweatpants for himself. His eyes remain on my face as he pulls it up his hips.

Slowly, he leans in and helps me wear his shirt. My limbs are shaking after the first experience with my wolf. It’s everything I didn’t imagine and have not come to terms with yet.

So, I snuggle into Alex when he leans close. His lips ghost my forehead before pressing a firm kiss on my temples.

Everything fine? He inquires in a soft voice.

Inod. “I just want to tell you something. “.

My voice comes out like a low whisper that is hardly audible.

E

What is it?” Alex asks, peering into my eyes deeply.

“–“I gather my courage and finally utter the words. “I love you, Alex. More than I have ever loved anyone else.

His eyes widen, his heart missing a beat under my palm. But he remains silent at the moment.

Ismile and repeat those words, firmer this time. “I love you, Alpha Alexander and I want you to mark me.
