Excerpt: Layla and Ammon in the Rain

This scene contains late-game spoilers for the rewrite of the Daughters of Fire and Rain and outpaces material in the original. I'm posting it though as a chemistry test between two of the new characters, Layla and Ammon.

I'm still in the plotting phase of the rewrite, so this scene may be removed from the final product. But if you want to see some enemies-to-lovers interactions, you can read to get a sneak peak at the characters of Ammon Long and Layla Emery-Park.

Layla wasn’t sure how long she’d been walking in the rain—or how far. All she did know was that it was dark, and the rain had only increased since she’d begun her walk. It pelted at her from above and sideways, and blurred the streetlights. She didn’t recognize what neighborhood she was in, or what part of Goldwater Harbor. 

Just that she was in some part of the endless labyrinth of suburbia, all alone. Her clothes were entirely soaked through, and she hated to think what shape her phone was in. 

But she couldn’t go home, even if she knew how to go back. Her mom. . . her mom would want nothing to do with her, with everything she’d confessed. Layla shut her eyes, even though it didn’t block out the memory of her mother yelling. 

“Everything I sacrificed and —just how stupid are you, Layla?”

Layla tried to swallow, but couldn’t. There was something lodged in her throat, but it wasn’t tangible. It was the grief, the disappointment—and the increasing suspicion that her mother had always been right. 

Layla had just gotten swept up in the story of becoming a dragon princess that she didn’t ask the right questions, that she’d ignored all of the red flags. 

Just how stupid are you, Layla?

Who could she even go to? Kira wanted nothing to do with her, and neither did Galileo. Agartha wasn’t safe anymore, not after the Executors had made themselves known. There was always Aideen. . . but Aideen had been Galileo’s friend long before Layla had ever entered the picture. 

And to set foot at Ansel’s house—that would be suicide now. 

That left Sabrina. But it would also put Sabrina in danger, to house Layla. She couldn’t defend herself against Paladins and Executors and all of the factions that had decided Layla was their enemy or prize. 

No, she didn’t want to bring that on her oldest friend. Or even ask for something like that, given she hadn’t been much of a friend lately. 

Before she could further contemplate where she even could go, however, she heard a car behind her. 

She turned to see the blinding headlights and darted just out of the road as the car slammed on the brakes. 

“Sorry!” She shouted at the driver, who was pretty much invisible in the darkness. 

But the car did not start up again like she’d expected. Instead, the driver’s door opened and a figure stepped out. 

Layla stepped back further and inhaled sharply. 

In a world of magic and political intrigue and supernatural dangers, she’d forgotten all about the all-too-mundane ones. 

She was a petite teenage girl, all alone in the middle of a rainy night in a neighborhood she didn’t know. Just after she’d pissed off nearly everyone she’d ever known or who’d ever loved her. 

This wasn’t good.

She raised her hands, remembering the spells that Magnus had taught her. The Paladins wouldn’t like her using her magic—but it wasn’t worth it to play by the Paladins’ rules anymore anyway. Playing by the rules had only gotten Llewellyn killed. 

The driver stepped into the light—and Layla recognized his face immediately. 

“Ammon.” There was some relief there—better the devil you know—but the same element of danger remained, and hung in the air. 

“Jesus Christ, Layla, do you have any idea who’s out here looking for you?” His voice was rough and low as he continued forward, to close the gap between them. 

Layla wasn’t sure whether to move back, to keep a distance between them, or to stand her ground. She was even less sure about what to say. So she said nothing, instead, locking her eyes into his. 

There had been a time when she might have even had a crush on him. Around the same time she’d liked Galileo. There definitely had been a time when she’d called him a friend. 

Just how stupid are you, Layla? Her cheeks and eyes burned, and it took a moment for her to realize that she was crying. The water was everywhere. 

Ammon frowned and he closed the gap between them. 

“What’s wrong, Layla?”

She shook her head and finally managed to step back. “No, no, you don’t get to pretend to be my friend anymore. I know what you really are.”

“And what am I?” 

“You’re part of the Executors.” She swiped at her tears, even though her face had been wet long before those had started. “You stole the relics, you pretended to be my friend to try to recruit me to your whole take-over-the-world cause, and you got my friend killed. And you’ve got my other friend working for you.”

Uncertainty flickered over his features. “It wasn’t my idea to let Llewellyn die, for what it’s worth.”

Layla bit her lip. She didn’t want it to be—but it was worth something. More than she wanted it to be, coming from him. “It does. Surprisingly. Thanks for that, I guess.”

An awkward silence filled the air between them, with only the wind and the rain and the faint tinny sound of the radio in Ammon’s car, the open door forgotten. 

He glanced over his shoulder as another car passed by, paying no mind to whatever was happening on the sidewalk. As Layla’s eyes returned to him, he grabbed her upper arms, pulling her close. 

“Let go of me, I’m not going to be a part of whatever Executor scheme you’ve been put up to—“

“Stop squirming, and listen,” he hissed, his voice going low again. He leaned forward, his ruby-tinted brown eyes almost hypnotizing in how large and intense they were. “I’m not the only Executor on the streets who’s looking for you—“

Layla froze. “How did they know?”

“Know what?”

“That I’d be out here.”

“Who do you think sent that letter to your mom?”

“Oh.” 

As if satisfied by how still she had gotten, he let go of her. “Look, I know you have no reason to trust me, Layla, but I’m not the bad guy here. Or at least, not right now. I don’t have much time to explain, but I promise you are safer coming with me than staying out here.”

  Layla looked around her—no other options were presenting themselves. She could turn and run. But what Ammon had said gave her pause. 

What else was out there, looking for her?

“Okay,” she finally said, looking back to him. “I really hope this isn’t a trap.”

“It isn’t a trap.” The corners of his mouth twitched with sarcastic sort of humor. 

“That’s exactly what you would say if this was a trap.” 

He snorted. “Just get in the car.”

My feelings on cry or better yet beg and the utter wasted potential for a psychological tragedy of the imbalance of relationships between noblemen and their mistresses

First off, if I was told I could only kill off one male lead, it'd be him

Lot of people rn especially on tik-tok probably would flame me for this with the "at least he loves Layla! He's so protective of her!"

"it's a dark romance! It won't be sunshine and rainbows you snowflake!"

"He just doesnt know how to express his emotions because he's so sheltered!"

No, just no, I don't care how "hot" he is, I don't care if he's your protective little bad boy. I don't care about his supposed character development, That's a straight up abuser who started off killing birds knowing it would damage to Layla to straight up assaulting her. (I don't know if that will stay in the webtoon, but it was in the novel) no character development can make me like a fucking rapist

Like how in the hell is Claudine considered worse than Mathhias, sure she isn't so peachy herself but goddammit to think of the fiance who if anything would be supported had she been the main protagonist, yes she's pretty demeaning, a bit shallow, and only views Matthias as the perfect Duke, but at least she's not going around mentally torturing a boy who can't do anything against her. I haven't gotten to her ending yet but from what I hear, it isn't a good one. She such a wasted opportunity since she is such a perfect example of a woman prepped and groomed to just be a Dukes wife would come out feeling that her worth only comes her husband.

Justice for Claudine, I just know there's a fanfic out there where you get with Riette, grow as your own person, and live a pleasant life.

You wanna know what really hurts me about this manhwa though? The fact that's it's so unintentionally accurate to how horrible it truly is to be a mistress in an era where women, especially women with no royal titles or status, were often treated by rich and powerful men. They would mostly have no right to say no to a man who decides he wants her, Layla romanticizing her abuse is not just heartbreaking but also unfortunately realistic as it's a coping mechanism for those who had endured nothing but abuse their whole life so they tend to shove their feelings in a box and pretend everything is okay (obviously this isn't the same for all victims of abuse, it's one of the many coping mechanisms people could develop)

In a lot of historical manhwa, there's usually the obligatory mistress character designed to be a dumb trashy bimbo to uplift the lead. Most of the time, the mistress in question is either a daughter of minor nobility that was chosen by a Emperor, crown prince, or Duke, or the mistress lived her life as a poor farm girl and in some situations lived a life where no one cared about her and was likely abused, the latter is often rare for these mistress characters since authors of those stories only want you sympathizing with the leads but in rare cases, the mistress did have a hard life but it ends up being undermined to further damage the mistress as torture/revenge porn or in Laylas case: used as an explanation to give a disturbing reason to why she ends up falling in love with Matthias which wouldn't be wrong if the story was written in a way that was a tragic one, not a romantic one.

you would think this kind of glamorouzation of abuse would only exist in the authors mindset and the degeneracy that is a junior high girls mind, but no, the ides that Layla is somehow the one in the wrong for her own abuse and reluctance of Matthias and there is even an Instagram post claiming she has BPD for being too "difficult" they sound like those 1950s doctors that find any reason to lobotomize a patient.

Laylas character does open the truths of what it's truly like to be practically owned by a nobleman, she's not like Rashta or Aisha from divorcing my tyrant husband where she's portrayed as a silly and cute strumpet with ulterior motives, she is genuinely upset but she can't do anything about it so all she can do is convince herself that Matthias loves her so she can keep her sanity, but where it goes wrong is that instead of portraying this as an unhealthy yet sole coping mechanism for an abusive relationship, the story just chalks it down to "silly Layla! You'll see that he's just misunderstood and you really do love him deep down!" Its frankly atrocious that the one time a story has a realistic pair of the typical women in this trope, the first wife who is classy and refined and the mistress who is young and free spirited ends ultimately destroyed yet again with a case black and white writting. One woman must be good and the other woman must be bad.

Frankly these characters are well written for the most part and until I realized I supposed to see Matthias as the love interest and not Kyle, I was fine with who Matthias was since he was presented more so as a villain, the art is also one of the prettiest cottagecore artstyles I've ever seen to the point where the 3D models look really good since it blends in perfectly, it's just sad that cry or better yet beg is a sick twisted tale equivalent to the average Colleen Hoover book.
