Yesterday I fell asleep peacefully and securely in Xavier's arms. With the nice thought that we had finally completed the Mateband.In the morning I woke up to the wonderful sparks. So he stayed and didn't throw himself back into work. That put a smile on my face and my heart leapt.Yesterday evening I bought another shirt from Xavier. One of the reasons below was because I didn't expect him to be by my side in the morning. So I would have a piece of clothing on me that smelled wonderfully of him. Sure, the bed smelled like him too, but the shirt was a great bonus.My smile died as all the new sensations the completed mate band brought me hit me with a vengeance. I belonged to a new pack and the connection to my old pack was severed forever. It brought joy and sadness. It was hard to put that in a proper category.On the one hand, I was really happy to finally be in Xavier's pack. I could talk to him anytime. Even with Melody, that would no longer be a problem. Otherwise, I could con

When we left our room I was very excited. Anything could be planned. Since it was a surprise, I wasn't told anything. Unfortunately I didn't get any notification. But I didn't give up that easily and would pester Xavier until we reached our goal.Nonetheless, I was really looking forward to it. They certainly couldn't spoil my mood.Xavier took my hand and I jumped a little for joy. He laughed at that and when we got to the stairs I stopped hopping.I looked up at Xavier and asked, "What exactly is planned?" "Layla, you can ask me ten more times, but you won't get an answer." I sighed and looked ahead again. It was worth the try for me. It's a wonder he wasn't annoyed by my curiosity.8thAt the bottom of the stairs, Melody came around the corner. She beamed at us and Xavier immediately said: "Not a word." She nodded gravely and turned to me. So Melody was in on it.Thank you for being part of the pack, the Mindlink was now possible for me. So I asked Melody, "And what's the plan? We'

layla♤ Flashback ♤"Where is she?!"My father's loud and angry voice made all my hair stand on end. I knew now that he meant me.How did I know?I dared to address Mai in public today. My two sisters had forbidden me to do that. They didn't want to be seen with me since I was oh so uncool. Mai and Anastasia were too fond of claiming we had nothing to do with each other.That was completely idiotic, after all everyone knew that we were siblings. This made it clear to everyone that we had something to do with each other. Inevitably and not voluntarily, but that's the way it was.A glance at the clock told me that my father came home early. He usually came an hour later. However, I could have answered it myself without looking at the clock. I hadn't wanted to be at home in the evening when he came home.Mai had already said that there would be consequences for me. That meant she was pulling something by her hair and telling our father nonsense about me.Long story short. I was in troubl

Yesterday evening had been really nice. I had enjoyed the time with Xavier and this calm was pleasant. There was no hustle and bustle around us and it was just him and me. It was like a short vacation after all the madness. We badly needed that.In the morning, Xavier had a few calls to make and I didn't blame him. His job took up a lot of time and I could understand it.For me it was the perfect opportunity to bring my family up to date. Actually, I should have done this earlier.I was sitting on our bed with my phone in my hand. First thing I would do is call my mum. Otherwise she would certainly be angry, which I could understand.I dialed her number and waited for her to answer. I had a grin on my face, which of course was real. I couldn't wait to tell her about it.I let it ring until voicemail came. Good, she didn't answer. I had to postpone our conversation to another time. With a sigh, I hung up and checked my phone book.The grin was back on my face quickly when I thought abo

The weekend was over far too quickly. Before I knew it, we were back home.The drive home had gone well and it had been a really nice weekend. Thinking about it brought a smile to your face.When we got home we just got out of the car and Paul came out of the house. It was like he was waiting for us to come home. He probably really had.We all greeted each other and Paul pointed to the suitcases that Xavier had already taken out of the trunk. "Alpha, I'll be happy to take care of that."Say what you wanted, but servants could be handy and made just about anything easier."Thanks, but I'll do it." One thing was certain, I didn't have to carry a suitcase. The reason why I walked towards the house. As an aside, I contacted Melody in Mindlink: "Melody, I'm back."I looked forward to seeing her again. That's why I let her know right away.While it was a pity that the weekend was over, I was looking forward to being back home. When I came here I never thought I would ever end up like this.
