Filth

He feels dirtier than usual and wanted nothing more than to take a bath before heading home. But he is worried that Layla would find a way for him to stay. Although it has been roughly a week and a half since he started engaging in such actions with her, Rhys has made sure to return home.

The lights are out when he approaches the house. It's quite late already so she is most-likely fast asleep. That was fine, he doesn't want her to see him in this state.

If his legs weren't in this condition, he would have beat Layla to a pulp already for even uttering those vile words. How dare a woman like that blackmail him? That friendly advice she gave him about not leaving Lyn alone was a warning that she would get people to harm Lyn. 

If he were in full strength like before he would deal with Layla like he did that woman from the brothel in the port town before. He wouldn't bother with her at all.
