Chapter Twelve

Layla

I woke up and found myself feeling better. I didn't want to. I jist wanted to die. I didn't want to live in this life anymore.

I saw a not at my bedside

It was from Eldar

"Baby , I apologise for hurting you more.

I really hope that you forgive me.

I'm off to Los Angeles but I'll be back very soon.

I hope you forgive me by the time I come.

And remember that you're always going to be mine and I'm always going to make you happy.

          Eldar❤ 

I felt bad for how I was treating him. But he killed my kitten. Shamsiya was  an angel.

He killed her.

But my heart hurt when I remember how he looks like when I ignore him.

I think I'm being too hard on him. After all everything that happens , is bound to happen.

I got up from bed and took my bath and said my Salat. I walked slowly downstairs and saw the guys sitting down with their heads in their hands.

I just walked away. I was mad at them for telling Eldar that I run away.

But it wasn't their fault. It was the idiot that tried to kidnap me's fault .

I walked to the kitchen and decided to treat them with some of my specialties.

"Who's in for some homemade cookies and milkshake ?!" I yelled from the kitchen.

The next instant , they all run to the kitchen with happy faces.

They gave me a group hug.

"We're sorry Layla! For whatever happened to you " they apologised.

"Its alright. I'm over it " I said.

They helped me prepare the snacks and very soon , we made chips and hotdogs and other delicacies.

I just planned to make a few snacks for myself and the guys and have a movie night . But I ended up making a whole lot of snacks that even the maids could eat and get satisfied but still wouldn't finish.

We sat down to watch a horror movie called "Green Inferno" . I was not a bit scared. The guys were even surprised that I could watch such a movie.

Afer the movie, I commented

"This movie wasn't in the least scary at  all. It's a disgrace to all horror movies"

They all looked at me like I said the most stupid thing in the world.

I rolled my eyes at them and did the dishes.

They suddenly carried me away to the living room and turned on the TV to another scary movie

It made me gulp. I've never been scared of horror movies, until today.

This movie was called "Titanic" . It wasn't a scary movie but it made me cry.

I haven't cried over a movie, until today. It was scary for me because it was a love story that had a sad ending.

It made me think of Eldar. How was he doing ? Did he think I was still mad at him ? Was he worried ? Was he fucking around ?

I hated the mere thoughts of that.

I got up and left to my room. I sat in a corner and cried my heart out. I missed Eldar.

He was a jerk , but I missed him.

Was I falling for him ?

I didn't want to. I didn't want to be in love.

But thoughts of Eldar being with another person made me sad.

I don't know for how long , I stayed there but when I realised , I was in someone's arms.

It was Eldar ! He was back !

"Eldar !" I said happily.

I hugged him very tightly. I know he found that to be weird and so did I.  But I couldn't help myself.

"You're not mad at me ?" He asked.

I shook my head and smiled at him.

"I'm over it now. I missed you " I said as I hugged him once more.

I soumded weird in my own head, but I didn't mind.

He hugged me back and kissed me on the head.

"I missed you more " he said.

"How was your trip ?" I asked him.

"It was boring. I just wish that I don't get a call from that client again , if not , I'd be forced to kill him" he said as he sighed.

He looked tired.

"You're tired aren't you?" I asked

He nodded while rubbing his eyes.

"C'mon  , let's go to sleep " I said as I pulled him to my bed.

He looked surprised but he complied.

I lay him down on the left side of the bed and tucked him in , while I walked to the bathroom, to take my bath.

It was 11:00 pm but I still needed to take my bath.

I sat inside tge jacuzzi for close to 20 minutes before I finally got out and wrapped myself in my towel.

I was ready to go out of the bathroom , when Eldar entered into the bathroom.

He pulled me to him and kissed me on the lips passionately. I couldn't help but kiss him back. He pinned me to the wall and kissed me as his hands travelled round my body.

Luckily , he wasn't going to take it any further. He carried me to the bed and lay me down beside him.

"I love you girl " he whsipered in my ears.

Wow ! I was always wondering how that would sound. He had confessed his feelings for me.

"I love you too " I replied as I turned away from him.

I know he was hurtin' because of the way I responded.

I heard him sigh and wrap his arms round my waist.

I turned round to face him. He wasn't sleeping.

"Are you mad at me ?" I asked

"No ! How can I be mad at the love of my life ?" He asked.

He really meant it when he said he loved me ?

"Do you really love me ?" I asked him.

He looked at me with truthful eyes.

"I do. And I'll never stop loving you girl. Mark my words"

I smiled at him and dug my head into his chest and said

"I love you too Eldar "

I knew he believed me now. He kissed me on the head.

My first enemy was now the man I loved.

Was this right ?  Did he deserve me ? Did I deserve him ? Would we be happy?

I didn't want to spoil my mood now, with doubts.

I loved him and he loved me.

That's all that matters right ?

Eldar

My baby girl Layla , has finally returned my love. I needed to be more careful now when handling her.

Her heart was already broken . She needed an angel to pick her up and fix her.

But I wasn't an angel , I was a demon.

Would she be happy with me ?

She looked happy in my arms. I didn't want to hurt her .

Or anyone to hurt her , no matter what.

My father didn't know who Layla is , if he did , he could have her harmed or even worse.

I would be doomed if something happened to my baby girl.

She was too innocent. I sometimes, wished that I wasn't a Prince.  So that I could live a normal life and have her all to myself without any problems.

My father was a dangerous man. He wasn't as dangerous as me tho'.

But he knew that if he hurt my love , he would hurt me.

And Layla , is my only weakness now.

If ever she gets hurt or she dies , I will become the monster that I used to be , before I met her.

I loved her and was ready to risk all for her.

She was mine and only mine.
