Water ran through Ryan's body washing away every single dirt from it, the water was lukewarm, not hot enough to completely wash away his sins but just warm enough to rinse off everything off. He closed his eyes savouring the warmth'Why don't you stop doing this Gabriel?'He questioned to himselfRyan took in a shaky breath and washed his hair, letting the water fall on his face making it sting."Well...there is only one way for me to end this, I have to kill Gabriel once and for all"He muttered angrily, grabbing a towel wiping his hair clean.'No, I can't...what will mum think?'He wondered"If Mom was here, what will she say?"He asked himself and took one last look at his reflection on the glass window before leaving the bathroom, taking a shower.When he finished, he stepped out wrapping the towel around his waist and dried his body thoroughlyHe sighted a pair of clothes on the bed, he took it carefully inspecting the blue shirt and black pants.They weren't fancy, simple and c

Minutes later, both Ryan and Aurora sat down to eat on the dinner table, both were eating quietly, except from Ryan's continuous chuckles and Aurora's giggles."So, you wanted to talk to me about something?"Ryan finally said breaking the silenceAurora raised an eyebrow at him, he noticed that she is nervous.Ryan cleared his throat uncomfortably and continued.."Is it important?"He asked but no reply"Umm...I..I don't know where to start"She said nervously scratching her wrist."Well, what's on your mind?"He replied with a small laugh."Uhh, Ryan you have to be chill about what I want to tell you"She replied.Ryan chuckled and shrugged."Well whatever, what did you want to tell me about?"he questionedAurora blushed and looked down at her food avoiding Ryan's gaze.Ryan narrowed his eyebrows confused by her actions.After a while, they finally locked gazes."When...when I brought you back to life few weeks ago....She paused avoiding his gaze again"Yeah?"Ryan whined waiting f

The next dayAurora woke up to bright sunlight pouring down on her face, she groaned softly stretching her arms above her head, her eyes opening slowly.She had slept peacefully until she noticed that something felt strange, she looked to her left and found out that Ryan wasn't there.Aurora sat up rubbing her eyes."Don't tell me he is still mad at me?"She muttered to herself.Aurora got dressed, quickly fixing her hair and put on some makeup. It took her 20 minutes since she was too sleepy to do much."Ryan?"She called but he was nowhere to be found, maybe he was downstairs getting food?She shrugged and headed downstairs, Ryan wasn't anywhere to be seen which made her worry.After making sure Ryan was nowhere near, Aurora started walking around her house, looking for him. "Ryan!!"She shouted "Ryan"No answer.Aurora sighed and went back upstairs, sitting on the bed thinking about everything that happened yesterday. She knew she fucked up.She knew she had crossed a line an

One week later...Keith walked down the road lost in thoughts, his eyes locked on the ground.His mind kept replaying what happened the previous day with his mother, making him cringe and cringe again and again."Shit."he cursed under his breath, he couldn't understand why his emotions were all over the place for the past week.He should've stayed strong and stay calm no matter what. Yet his emotions were all over the place, even more than before. After he got mad, he tried to control himself as it was clear to him that Marilyn was upset and he couldn't help but be annoyed by her sudden change in mood."I have to leave this town for now..... for good"He muttered walking faster, ignoring the people passing him.He walked straight down the village, until he finally reached a secluded spot. He leaned against the wall and crossed his arms, letting out a deep sigh."I hope Aurora is okay?"He whispered to himself"I know I'm being stupid, but I really hope she is alright"Keith muttered

Aurora stared at the soaked plates, washing and scrubbing them, putting them back into the cupboard and drying the dishes before cleaning them once more."Aurora!"She heard Ryan's voice calling out behind herShe turned around, putting the last plate on the rack "What's wrong?"she yelled back Immediately he saw Ryan running towards her with an excited expression, his green eyes sparkling brightly. He wrapped his arms around Aurora and hugged her tightly causing her to squeal, wrapping her arms around his shoulders"I knew it!!!"Ryan exclaimed"Knew what?"Aurora asked curiously"Oh my God!! Aurora!! you have no idea how happy I am"He yelled Aurora laughed and pushed him lightly away.She wiped off her sweat before asking"Did something happen, cause you are making such a big deal out of it""It is a big deal Aurora"He paused to take a deep breath"Aurora, you are pregnant!!"He added smiling widely.

Marilyn watched her ex-husband with sympathy, but there was nothing else she could do.Finally, Ava managed to pull herself together. She nodded her head slowly, resigned to the fact that it was too late for RyanMarilyn's eyes narrowed slightly as she observed Ava. She had never seen someone like this before.

Aurora flinched in horror, staring at the gushing blood from Keith's body, she looked at Ryan who just stared at the bloody body before turning to Ava with pure fearAurora screamed loudly, covering her mouth with one hand as she fell backwards"Keith!!!"Ava screamed trying desperately to break free from her chains, but they were tightGabriel kneeled next to Keith's body while Ryan watched helplessly, he watched as Ryan glared at him hard"So... let's just get this thing done with quickly, so we can go home. Right?"Gabriel said and laughed out loud."Oh my gosh, this is hilarious"Gabriel added.."Shit!! shit!!"Ava cursed trying hard again to break the chains, but she couldn't do soGabriel grabbed another gun that laid near to Keith and pointed it at Ryan.."Why don't we end this and for all you fucking bastards!!"Gabriel pulled the trigger and shot Ryan on the leg, which caused him to scream in pain, making Gabriel laugh again.."Ryan!!!!"Aurora screamed frantically trying to

Few minutes later...Ryan was already exhausted, bodies filled the room everywhere, blood and guts scattered around the place making it resemble a slaughterhouse.Ryan stood still panting heavily, covered with a thick layer of grime and sweat, and blood covering his body. He wiped it off his face and turned to face a Gabriel who was approaching him and smirked evilly at him."Wow, you actually killed them all? wow!!"He muttered moving closer to Ryan, kicking the dead bodies as he is doing so.Ryan glared at him gripping his sword, his expression showing no emotion, but inside he was boiling with anger and annoyance."Just get Keith, I... don't want to..."What?"Gabriel interrupted "You don't want to what?!! hurt me?"He added with a laugh"That's what you said years ago""Gabriel!! for the last time! release Keith...he has nothing to do with it...release him...or else I won't spare you this time Gabriel"Ryan warned"Oh come on now Ryan!!!

I guess so.."He said hesitantly"Me too..""You too?"Keith asked"Yeah, I think it's strange that we managed to meet up in these conditions.""Yeah...."Keith saidThe two fell silent. "Are you gonna find a way for us to get out of here"She asked Keith nodded slowly, still not convinced, even though he tried really hard not to think about what happened earlier."I'll try...."They were both silent for a while, staring at the floor, until finally Keith asked"Hey......."Hmm?"She hummed in acknowledgement"How are you holding up?""Better...."Ava replied, looking back at him"Can I ask you a question?""Sure!!""What about your family members, don't they know you are away or something?"Keith asked and heard

The next day.."Ryan, why do we have to leave immediately, can't we just wait for a few days?"Aurora asked worriedly staring at Ryan stuffing all his clothes into the traveling bag, preparing their bags for travel."No, I'm sorry babe, we need to leave now."Ryan sighed and placed the bag on the couch next to him"But.."Don't worry Aurora, I got this, just relax okay? you don't need to stress yourself for this"He kissed her forehead sweetly before grabbing his luggage"Are you sure you want to take these too? they look heavy and it would probably cause an accident"Aurora spoke concerned.Ryan smiled reassuringly at Aurora"Don't worry about them, I know what I'm doing alright?"He repliedImmediately he heard a knock and Ryan headed towards the doorHe opened it and saw Lucas standing there looking terrified"What happened?"Ryan asked staring at Lucas's worried face"I need to talk to you..."He paused and took a quick glance at Aurora"...in private"He finished drafting his att

The morning light filtered through the bedroom window, Aurora could see Ryan slowly waking up as well He yawned and stretched and Aurora giggled seeing him She moved and he quickly pulled her body closer, hugging her and nuzzling her neck "Morning Aurora"he murmured sleepily. Aurora hummed and leaned her head back into his shoulder before closing her eyes.She could feel his lips moving across her neck before a small peck made its way onto her bare skin.She giggled when she felt that familiar sensation on her skin"Morning"She responded softly, rubbing her hand against his arm. Ryan sighed and tightened his grip on Aurora for a moment before gently letting her go. He sat upright and looked down at her with a bright smile.He reached out his hands and helped Aurora sit up, then cupped her face and brought her into a warm kiss."How is my baby?"He asked patting her flat tummy gently, Aurora giggled and blushed slightly.
