The Substitute Bride: Making Memories Of Us (Lois Stone)

"No! You're lying! You told me that you hate him! How could you go back to him? I don't believe it! I refuse to believe it!"

Lucas shouted at Ayla.She said that she was going back to Brian's side, and that from now on, she would be with him.

‘It's a lie! They're nothing but all lies!” Lucas refused to believe any of her words.

For such a long time, he had believed that the bond he made with Ayla over the past two years was enough to make her move on from her few months of marriage with Brian.

Besides, in those short-lived months, she was miserable. 

 "I'm not lying to you.I still love him.I can't bring myself to forget about him, so I've decided that I want to start over with him," she said sternly.

‘Perhaps this is enough to make him believe me! “she thought.  

Lucas held Ayla's hand, refusing to let her go.He pressed his lips against hers.He wanted her, all of her.He had thought that he could keep her by his side by making her believe that they had sex that night in Italy.

But the moment Brian reappeared in her life, she turned her back on Lucas.

The kiss felt painful to Ayla.

It wasn't a kiss born out of love, but of hatred.He hated her for wanting to leave him and for not reciprocating his love.

Then so be it! If hatred could eventually make him happy, it was a sacrifice she was willing to make.

Lucas leaned closer to Ayla's ear, and whispered, "Lala, you're mine.You can only be mine!"

If he would let her go after he enjoyed her body one last time, Ayla decided that she would just let him do it.

However, before he could proceed, the doorbell rang.  

"Lucas, that might be Miss Green."

Ayla pushed Lucas away.She didn't want to cause an even greater rift between him and Haley.

Remorsefully, Lucas ruffled his messy hair as he went to open the door.

However, the person at the door wasn't Haley, it was Brian! 

"What are you doing here?"

Lucas blocked the entryway of the door, preventing him from entering.His tone was unfriendly, because there was no need to be affable towards him.

They were rivals in love after all.
