Narrator’s POV— ( Past Life)
The car stopped in front of a hotel and Edward carried sleeping Clara in his arms into a small room booked for them. While carrying her inside Edward looked at the fragile woman in his arms, who was his wife and felt a sharp pain in his chest. This was the woman he has taken a vow to protect and cherish yet he was the cause of her current state.
It was almost eleven in the morning and Edward gently closed the door with his leg, after entering the room and carried Clara to the bed. He laid her gently on the bed. Clara’s face has turned so pale just in two days. Her eyes had dark circles around them and her face was marked with dry tears. Her hair was messy and a few strands were scattered all over her beautiful face. Edward despite trying hard couldn’t help but gently place his hand on her face and pushed back the hairs from her face. But on touching her skin, he frowned deeply! She was having temperature though it wa
Edward’s POV— ( Past Life)The look was killing me! She doesn’t even know that I am doing all this for saving her and giving her the life she deserves! She hates me now! She thinks that I am a person with no feelings and just for money I have played her. She thinks that everything we shared was an act. She believes that I never loved her!‘Oh Clara! It is not true! I fell in love with you the moment I looked into your deep ocean like eyes! I had drowned into your depth that very moment and despite trying hard, I couldn’t resurface! You just need to hold on a little longer baby!’ – I thought as I kept staring into her eyes. I promised through my eyes that I will never leave her unprotected! I love her and I will save her!But what was the strange promise in her eyes?I sat with her at the back while Jackson drove the car and Johny sat on the passenger seat. The whole way Clara just kept staring at me and didn&rsquo
Narrator’s POV— ( Past Life)Philip Highlander walked inside the room. Inside it was scarcely illuminated by a faint purple light. And in that faint light he could clearly see a beautiful delicate woman lying semi-conscious on the bed wearing a revealing blue gown. Her pale skin was even more white and involuntary sweet moans were coming out of her mouth which were pretty inviting!Philip recognised the woman even in the darkness! She is the same beauty who captured his heart during her eighteenth birthday party. She was no someone common at all! Her beauty was such rare that even if she was dressed in old rugs, she would look like a gorgeous delicate angel from heaven! She was like the lotus, who would look beautiful and fresh even if blossomed in mud! Clara Knight! Clara knight’s beauty was worth more than millions of stars in the dark sky that made the dark night look enchanting.Philip look in a deep breath as his dark gaze ro
Narrator’s POV— ( Past Life)After cutting the power off, Johny slowly made his way to the door of room number 306! In the darkness it took him sometime though! The plan was to enter into the room and help Mark (Edward) and save his wife! But Johny got delayed because a young girl and a middle aged man were making out in the meter room! They seemed like employees of the hotel. Johny had to wait! He couldn’t draw attention and had to finish his job quietly!‘BOOM! BOOM!’The loud sound of two bullets were clearly heard when Johny was already on the corridor to room number 306! But by the time Johny reached the room door, he saw a figure stumbling out of the room. With quick reflex Johny had taken out his gun and pointed at the person!He feared that something might have happened to Philip who maybe was trying to escape! Maybe he too had a firearm with him! Just at that moment the loud and ugly sound of the genera
Narrator’s POV— ( Past Life)“CLAAARAAAAAA!!”Edward sat up abruptly on the bed. His head was wet with several beads of sweat. He was panting and frantically looking around!“Mark! Mark! Don’t get up, please! You have to rest!” Johny was trying hard to make Edward lie down on the bed! It has been twenty eight days since the incident!Edward was shot with two bullets in the hotel. Uncle Frank was in his car but when he also heard the gunshots and then the chaos, he couldn’t sit back idly and has run to the room where Clara was being held. With the help of Uncle Frank, finally Johny could manage to bring Edward back to his senses somehow and dragged him and Clara into the car. They could start the car and run a few meters when another large van stopped blocking their path.Three men started to shoot at them. Johny has taken out his gun and getting off the car, he started firing taking shel
Narrator’s POV— ( Past Life)“Dr Moore? What happened to my sister? Is something serious?” Frank Day knocked once and without even waiting for the doctor to reply rushed in!He was extremely worried about his only sister Dorothy fox and his only nephew Edward! If something was not serious, Dr Moore would have never called Frank Day so urgently! If anything happened to his sister, he won’t be able to save Edward as well now that Clara wasn’t here!“Your Sister..”“Yes, My sister! How is she Dr Moore? Has something serious happened to her??” Frank Day was much healthier and tougher compared to his age but at that moment he was panting bending over the doctors desk!“Mrs Dorothy is completely fine Mr Day. Please have a seat and calm down. I have called you for a different reason!” Dr Moore said.Frank Day released a deep breath and stood relaxing f
Narrator’s POV— ( Past Life)The men were closing the entrance when all the three men moved close to them and circling them, they barked, “What is your business here?”The young and the old men looked up and furrowing his eyebrows, the young man replied rudely, “What do you mean by what is our business? Isn’t this a shop where dresses are made? Isn’t this open for customers?”“The men said in a similar voice narrowing their eyebrows, “Yes it is! But men are not allowed inside! This store is for women!”From behind they heard a dramatic frowning voice, “Huh! Nowadays men have become so shameless Marie! How openly they are following ladies. Let’s hurry back home! I think I have to go to the hospital.”The men looked back once at the ladies walking out of the shop and when the young man tried to move forward, they turned back and asked in a serious accusi
Clara’s POV— ( Past Life)Edward’s face was worth watching when I said that I was carrying our baby!“What did you say??” he pushed me back and asked tilting his head to look into my eyes, while his eyebrows were drawn and there was some confusion on his face. His expressions for a moment made me worry that he would be angry and not want a baby so soon! But anyhow I had to reply him!“I….I said…I am pregnant!” I mumbled looking down sadly. I held my breath for the blow to come! His face which was full of concern a moment ago was stoic with narrowed eyes. I knew he would say, that we can’t have baby so soon!“I am sorry…but..”“You are sorry?? Are you that stupid? Or don’t you love me??” he frowned as he looked with shock at my face!Was it such a great mistake that he won’t accept my apology even and call me a stupid? Did I purposely get
Clara’s POV— ( Past Life)“That night, we for the first time fell asleep in peace! Philip Highland has been asking about us in the adjacent town and Johnny and Uncle Frank had told us to lay low! Edward even didn’t go out to work anymore and always kept a watch!Since Edward had laid low for a long time, Johnny sent a messenger that night, stating that the men looking for us were leaving the same night and there would be no more danger! Meanwhile Mommy and Daddy were supposed to come the next day to visit us!I don’t know, why but that night when I was in my room along with Edward, I was continuously feeling uneasy, as if something was about to happen!! And I woke up to a very scary nightmare!!“Clara? Are you ok?” the man, my husband with beautiful green eyes said hovering over me. His bare chest was muscular and well-toned and on top of that he smelled so good. I sat on the bed sweating and panting with fear in
