Layla_Everdeen

Leah is unknowingly dating a hitman. She's desperately in love with him and doesn't realise just how badly he treats her and neglects her.
Her close friends notice but Leah does not.

She bases her entire happiness on him before her entire life shatters when she catches him cheating on her with a hitwoman he works with.

She's heart-broken and continues working on the birthday party that her company is in charge of organizing when she meets her ex's boss.

Adonis 'Havocbringer' Kane is not someone people cross lightly. He's the youngest Mafia boss and hides his dealings behind his extremely wealthy and thriving family business. He's not one for parties and is known to go to any lengths to get what he wants. He has many enemies but no one dares engage him because of how quickly he's known to deal with 'problems'.

When Leah first sees him, there's an undeniable pull she feels toward him. He's strong, charismatic when needed and extremely possesive as their meetings become more frequent.

Leah doesn't want another relationship and doesn't trust him but it makes seeing her ex in the same premises for the next two months so much more bearable.

Dumped by a Hitman, pursued by his Boss

Leah nodded as she listened, offering no word in response to Tim's dialogue.

"And…" Tim swallowed hard. He was realising how out of tune Leah looked. Her pretty face looked rather unimpressed, and she looked like she did not believe a word coming out of Tim Leyland's mouth.

"A- And so," Tim continued, trying his best, "I was not in the best headspace like I said earlier… w- which may have caused me to look a l- little… unconcerned, Leah… In reality, I had a burning headache at the time… And work was a- also not going so great for me!"

Was this truly the girl he had dated for two whole years?

The girl who dropped everything to meet him when he called. The girl who blushed hard when he paid her even the tiniest compliment. The girl who was caring and sweet to him and trusted him more than anyone else in the world.

Surely, this was not that same girl.
