Talon’s POVI remember that day like it was yesterday. Naya and I were having a nice time, enjoying each other's company when suddenly we heard a loud bang. The sound was so loud that it could draw anyone’s attention. Before we could even react, the door of our house was broken down and a group of masked men stormed in. It was chaos as they started attacking us with weapons. I couldn't recognize any of the men since they were masked.Instinctively, I knew I had to protect Naya at all costs. I pushed her behind me and fought off the attackers as best as I could. They tried to attack her and I swiftly pushed one of them away. The battle was fierce and I couldn't fathom what was going on. Everything was happening too fast. How did they come to the house? What did they want from us? Why were they directly attacking Naya? Did they want her dead? I just couldn't stop thinking about the evil thoughts that were running through the head of the men. I wondered if they were sent to harm us and
Talon’s POVAfter the traumatic incident that Naya and I had experienced, I knew that she would be struggling to deal with her emotions. She cried herself to sleep, and I spent the night taking care of her and tending to her needs. I sat up for most of the night, watching her sleep and wondering what I felt in my heart. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but I knew that I cared deeply for her. I tried to figure out the reason why I cared so much about her, but I couldn't think of one. I just realized that I enjoyed seeing her happy. And, I was ready to keep making her happy. I knew that I just had to do my best to be there for her when she needed me. She definitely would be there for me if I needed her too. She was a nice person after all. I was glad that spending time with her made me to get to know her even more.As the sun began to rise, I decided to get some rest. I only slept for an hour or two before I woke up and decided to visit an old friend. I needed some time to clear
Talon’s POVI still couldn't believe that I had fallen in love with Naya. After I left her that morning, I decided to meet up with my old friend, Frederick. We spent the day catching up and reminiscing about old times. We had been good friends in the past. However, Frederick could tell that something was bothering me. He teased me about falling in love with Naya, but I denied it. I wasn't ready to admit my feelings just yet. I was still trying to come to terms with them myself. I told him that I would never love a woman after losing my mother, but he didn't press on it. And, I was saying the truth to him. After everything that my mum had done to me, I believed that I was never going to give another woman a chance in my life. My mum succeeded in messing up my head with thoughts that every woman was going to leave you someday. I tried my best not to believe her, but it was hard. After all, she left my dad and Nelson and I without ever looking back. I didn’t care for the fact that sh
Naya's POVAs we walked into Frederick's house, I was surprised to see that I knew him from the streets I stayed on when I was younger. He used to live on the same street with me then. We got to talk a few times at that time. But, we weren’t so fond of each other. Seeing him all of a sudden surprised me and it made me happy. I felt joy inside of me. I had wanted to associate with a few more people from the outside world, but it felt like all I had was just Talon and the inner me. It was a pleasant surprise, and we hugged each other tightly. It felt good to see someone who had known me for a long time, and who could share in our happiness.We were all sitting in the living room, chatting away, and I was getting along great with Frederick's wife. Talon seemed happy that I was comfortable and that I was enjoying myself. He had never seen me with any friends, or heard me calling anyone, so I could tell that he was happy that I was happy. He kept staring at me almost every time I looked
Naya's POVTalon was acting strange the whole day. He was constantly staring at me with a dreamy look in his eyes and he kept asking me if I needed anything. I couldn't help but wonder what was going on in his mind."Talon, what's wrong?" I asked, trying to get him to open up."Nothing's wrong, Naya. I just want to spoil you today," he replied with a smile."Talon, you don't have to do this. I'm happy just being with you," I said, feeling overwhelmed by his gestures."I know you are, but I want to do this for you. You deserve it," he said, looking at me with affection in his eyes.I couldn't help but feel a warm fuzzy feeling in my chest. I knew Talon cared for me deeply, but I never expected him to go to such lengths to make me happy. I never believed that he was going to ever tell me that he wanted to spoil me. I thought what we were having was just more like friendship. To me, I was just a flatmate to Talon. But, it seemed like there was more to it from his part. Even if he never
Naya’s POVTalon had gone out to buy breakfast, but I could barely stomach thinking about eating anything at all. Something had gone seriously wrong with my body; I had been sleeping a lot and throwing up, suggesting something other than simply stomach upset was at play here. I needed to know what was wrong with me. I was so sure that something was wrong with me. I was ready to try to check up on my health. I believed that it was the perfect time to do it. Talon might become alarmed, so to ease his worries I decided to go alone to the hospital. Just so he wouldn't worry too much I told him I was taking a walk around town instead so as not to alarm him further. After all I never wanted him to know what was wrong with me. He had constantly convinced me to do a checkup, but I never agreed. Letting him know that I finally accepted to go to the hospital wasn’t a good idea to me.As soon as I arrived at the hospital, I made an immediate beeline to the emergency department where they took
Talon's POVNaya had been sleeping for a while when we arrived at our hotel. I parked our things with the help of a maid and tried to be as quiet as possible. I didn't want to wake her up. We had had a long day and would soon travel, and she needed her rest. I didn’t have a problem with her constant weakness. All I wanted to figure out was her health status. I just wanted to be sure that she was alright. That was all that mattered to me. I was patiently waiting for her to get the mail and tell me what the heck was wrong with her. I wasn’t willing to let her go without knowing the main cause of her weakness and constant sleeps. Even if she didn’t want me to be a part of it, I still wanted to be part of it. I was ready to give her the best treatment and ensure that even if she left my house, she would be leaving in good health. So, I tried to monitor her health, but too bad, I couldn't tell what was wrong with her. My only option was to wait for the results that Naya was expecting.
Talon's POVThe next day when Naya was about to go out of bed, I stopped her. I didn’t want her to get up from bed since she seemed pale.“I’m not letting you out of this bed till you tell me the truth. Why were you crying yesterday? Or, did you think that I didn’t find out? I saw it all. I even tried to speak to you but you totally ignored me. I’m interested in knowing what made you react that way. You need to tell me everything. Don’t hide a thing from me,” I said.“I wasn’t hiding anything from you,” she said coldly.“There you go again. Why are you trying to lie to me? Do I seem that dumb to you? I saw everything you did. You just need to tell me the truth. What were you hiding from me the whole of last night? Why didn’t you want me to read the mail?”“It’s alright, Talon. You win! I’d tell you everything.”“Please, do.”“What I was hiding had to do with the hospital. I just wasn’t sure if I wanted you to see it just yet. But, since you’ve insisted to see it, I guess I’ll just let
