Bianca's POVGabriel is bleeding! I looked at Damon, my entire body quaking in fear. Damon stood up and looked around, he saw someone in the dark. The person started running when he saw Damon, and Damon chased the person. I looked at Gabriel again, he smiled at me and fell on his knees. My heart stopped, my knees refused to move at all. Is this a dream or am I seeing something real? "GABRIEL! NO!" I screamed, seeing how much he is bleeding. "Bianca...." He called as I held him. "Don't talk Gabriel! Please you know better than this." I begged him, unable to stop the tears that fell from my eyes. What am I going to do? My heart felt like it was being torn to pieces. I feel like I'd die if anything happens to him. This is all my fault. "I am so sorry. I shouldn't have been close to you. This is happening all because of me." I cried. He shook his head, "Don't blame yourself Bianca. This was meant to happen anyways. I... can't watch you risk your life anymore." "You shouldn't have
Damon's POV I feel so sad and bad. I cannot believe that idiot will risk his life to save me. Why would he do such a risky thing in the first place? He should have just let me be shot. I thought he hated me and he was the one sending the death threats. I was too stupid to think about it. I did not realize that person was just trying to mess with us and I allowed myself to be used. But this means one thing, the culprit is closer to us than we imagine. I looked around for clues and got none. I am going to catch whoever it is that is doing this to us. I won't be merciful when I catch him, he's going to regret everything he did. Bianca probably hates me now. She won't even let me touch her anymore. Not only is she mad about the whole thing but she has been acting weird. We went to the station to give our statements. She has been refusing to let me near her. I don't know if she is doing this because of Gabriel or if she's doing this because she is scared of the culprit. "Why do you ke
Damon's POVI stared at her as she smiled. Anger building up inside me, and I was slowly losing every last ounce of patience I had. What is she doing here when I didn't call her? Why is she always in the places where bad things happen? "What are you doing here Aileen? Do you have something to do with what happened?" My voice was loud enough for people to hear. She looked around frantically, her face turning sour as she got scared that the police around might hear. "What are you doing Damon? You can't be accusing me of what I didn't do! You know I have nothing to do with this!" She yells at me. I scoffed, "Then what are you doing here? What did you say? She is trouble and you are not? No one even told the news yet so how did you know?"She looked around again, "Why don't we leave and talk elsewhere? I heard the culprit was after you. Staying here is not good for you either." I jerked my hands off her, "You have no right to tell me what to do Aileen. Not after everything you've don
Bianca's POV Am I doing too much right now? Is it too much for me to ask for his understanding when someone is lying in a coma because of us? I should say because of me. That culprit is doing this all because of me. I don't know what I will do if Damon eventually gets hurt too. I know he is unhappy with the way I am treating him right now, but I just have no choice. The only way everyone else can survive is this. I am so scared. I don't want anything to happen to Gabriel because of me. His condition is so critical that he is hardly going to make it. I adjusted my clothes, ready to go out and check on my patients. I suddenly received a call from my grandfather. I haven't been calling him much these days and he must be mad at me. But then I gasped, knowing he might be calling because of what happened. He must have heard too. "Hello, Grandpa," I said in a low voice. "What is going on over there? I need you to pack your bags and come home immediately! Don't stay there anymore!"
Bianca's POV"I want you." He blurted out,with a mock laugh. What the fuck is he saying? Should I just call security to throw him out since he thinks I am a joke? I wanted to say something to him, but he suddenly started laughing. "What's so funny? Am I funny?" I asked him with a straight face, sounding offended. He stopped laughing, straightening himself. "Sorry for laughing but I'm not actually laughing at you. I was just trying to cheer you up.""And why would you cheer me up?" I fired another question at him. He cleared his throat, probably too embarrassed because I don't find it funny. "I heard what happened and I thought you might be devastated. I just wanted to cheer you up.""Like I said, you and I are not exactly close for you to be doing things like that for me." He nodded, "But you're my friend's woman? Aren't you both together now? I am just trying to be friendly, don't take it the wrong way."For some reason, I keep getting mad at him. I don't want to see his face at
Bianca's POVWe ran all over the house trying to find him. It was strange enough that the nurses are not here and the workers too. I checked every open room and didn't find him there. I didn't see Damon behind me anymore so I got worried. I went to the living room to look for him. I bumped into Damon on my way out of the living room. I bumped my head on his chest and I almost fell backwards but he caught me. At this moment, my eyes shouldn't be going to his lips. Am I an idiot for wanting to kiss him now?"You should watch where you are going, sweetheart. What if you get hurt?" His voice brought me back from my fantasy. I quickly straightened myself, clearing my throat. "I was just too busy looking for your father. So, did you find him?"He nodded, "He's in the garden. He's just there for fresh air and he went with the nurse."I sighed in relief hearing that. "I was so worried. I didn't think of that. It's a good thing for him to go out."I walked past Damon and made my way to the g
Aileen's POV "Here's the new scarf you requested for ma'am." The shop attendant presented the scarf to me. I was too lost to hear her before. I can't stop thinking about the issue with Damon. I am buying new scarves because I need something to cover my bruises until they heal. It was already hard enough for me to leave home this morning. "Do you have any more designs? I don't like this one." I told them without taking another look at the scarf. I am too annoyed to even make a decision. Damon hurt me because of that bitch. I just can't let this go. I guess I won't be able to bring Damon back to his senses unless something damage happens to him. The attendant brought another scarf, she looked too stressed out. I am not the type to show mercy on people like her but I also happen to not have any strength to cause trouble right now. "Get me some more of this brand. I like it." I ordered her, facing the mirror back as I couldn't stop touching my neck. Someone suddenly popped beh
Damon's POVI went to check on my son since I don't know if I will get the chance to get closer to him. I don't want to be around him too much, so they won't use him as my weakness. I went to his school, where I have hired different security men to protect also. Not just for my son who is there but for all the innocent people there. I can't stop his education just because of someone I don't know. I am positive that I'll catch whoever it is soon enough. After having the meeting with the teachers and other school staff, I ensured everything was in place before going home. I didn't go home, of course, I went to Bianca's apartment. Mia came to open the door, it seemed like she was trying to cook. "You are welcome sir. Dion has been talking about you non-stop." She opened the door for me to get in. "Daddy!" He took little strides with a smile that lightened up my heart as he ran towards me. I carried him up and swirled him around. My heart felt light just looking at him. I have been
