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

Chapter 81



LAYLA

My cars continue to ring. I try to shake my head, make sense of things but I am slowly losing my mind.

All I can think about is him. His face, his voice, his warmth.

The fire grows, leaving the orangish hue covering everything. Clouds of smoke disperse into the night sky. Under the flying ashes, my heart is slowly coming to a halt.

Pain, like no other, grips my heart and blinds me to this world.

“No.” I try to scream, but all that comes out of my mouth is the whisper of a ghost.

“No, Alex. My Alex.

My world blackens. The memories continue to play before my eyes, his face morphing into a smile, then a glare, then a soft look.

“No–Please, don’t leave me. “I claw at the concrete, trying to pave my way to the debris that now covers the entrance.

Maybe, he is still alive. He can’t leave me like this. He should take me with him.

My nails start bleeding as they scratch against the road. The pain in my chest spreads to my limbs, leaving me immobile.

Something is itching under my skin, a force trying to break out of my muscles and claim my body. Finally, another scream tears from my throat.

My wounded arm starts to heal, and fur covers it. I don’t register the sudden shift. I can’t process what’s happening.

I just want Alex.

“Alex. “Tears stream down my eyes as I whisper his name on repeat, calling out to him and hoping he will listen.

“Luna. “Someone is shaking my shoulders.” Pull yourself together, Luna. Alpha is inside but you can’t go there.”

“N—No.” I croak. The building is just debris and ashes now.

It doesn’t look like anything inside it survived. But no. My Alex can’t die.

The fur trails up my neck. My bones crack under my muscles as blood drops down

my

nostrils.

As the foreign force takes over me, I find strength filling every pore of me.

“Layla. “A familiar voice whispers inside my head.

Then, I am running towards the rundown building. I will find my Alex. A growl leaves my mouth.

The world fades into a meaningless background. I just want him Or I will die with him.

“Luna! It’s collapsing! Don’t go there.”

I can’t wait to hear. I barge straight under the part of the building that’s falling. At the last moment, when the pillar keeping

the whole roof gives in,-1-look up and find everything lowering towards me at the speed of light.

A sense of peace washes over me. If I can’t have him, I will go with him. Wherever he is, I will be with him.

My eyes close, as I accept my fate. This life has never let me be happy. It’s better to end it here now, than to live on and regret not being able to save him for the rest of my life.

In what I consider my last moments, my mind is still filled with his thoughts. He made me happy, even if shortly, he did. I was genuinely happy and it felt like someone was there for me.

It felt like I could rest without fearing any pain. It felt like I could breathe without feeling the weight of abuse over my lungs. Even if for a few days, I was truly alive.

The creak grows closer.

Suddenly, sparks rush down my spine. I am pushed away from under the falling roof.

It happens fast. I find myself far away from the building. It collapses with an explosive sound, leaving ashes flying everywhere again.

The sparks intensity. I breathe, and forget how to repeat it.

“Layla. “His hands are touching my arms.

My-arms? Why do they feel so different, and fur-filled?

blink my eyes open. I am much shorter than the tall man standing in front of me.

It feels like I am dreaming. Maybe, I died and reunited with the one man I loved more than life.

“Layla. “His eyes scream worry as he runs his knuckles down my- – –

Everything in me freezes when my eyes focus on the nose—or more like the snout.

“It’s you.” Alex whispers in awe. “You are a white wolf.

My heart threatens to beat out of my chest as I move around. It feels weird. I feel like my legs are jelly and I don’t know how to walk anymore, but some other force is helping me adjust to this change.

However, I can’t focus on that. Alex is right in front of me.

I throw myself into his arms, not caring how my new face hits him in the chest. He groans, but still rubs my head as if petting a cute animal.

Tears continue to fall. I am still so shocked, unable to believe that so many things happened in mere moments.

But, he is alive.

That’s all that matters to me.

I try to speak but a howl comes out of my mouth instead.

Easy. “The voice whispers inside my head again. ” everything is new for us right now, so please be easy on yourself.”

The voice is sweet and wise. My heartbeat escalates some more.

Alex keeps petting my head, a look of amusement in his eyes.

“I knew you were strong. But you exceeded my expectations. With or without a wolf, you are a remarkable woman.” He whispers.

Relief fills me, and I find my muscles relaxing.

Out of nowhere, a few cars pull up behind Alex. My heart misses a beat as I step back and let him rise.

Instantly, several men step out of the car and start shooting at us My eyes widen, as Alex uses some extraordinary speed and pulls us both away from the scene and behind a fallen part of the building.

Men emerge from the other side. I recognize Levi in the lead and the warriors behind him. Both parties start shooting each other and in moments-

The place becomes a scene of a gang war.

“Stay here, Layla.” Alex orders and rushes away before I can stop him.
