Kian's POV "Intercept the car and bar it from passing," I spoke into my phone, and my Beta grunted his acknowledgement. I knew he was pissed, but I didn't care. I had to do this. I couldn't go back on my word. I watched from a distance as his men backed a lorry onto the road, feigning an innocent delay from an incompetent truck driver. My ploy worked and the driver of the grey car braked hard, the tires screeching to a stop. The guards moved instantly to help, annoyance flashing in their eyes as they talked with the truck driver. I strode forward towards the car, ignoring the incident that I had created, my eyes fixed on the car. Then the rear window slid down and my heart stopped. Layla Pearson sat inside and her beautiful, enraged gaze was focused entirely on me
