Hazel POV

I walk down the corridor with tears threatening to spill. “Are you okay?”, I hear someone ask, and I just nod my head without even looking at the person that asked the question. I keep walking until I reach the stairs in the end of the corridor. I open the fire safety doors, and when it bangs behind me, I feel my entire body shaking. My chest is tight, and I sit on the stairs crying. My hands cover my face as I cry like a child that lost their favourite toy.

My phone starts ringing in my pocket, but I ignore it. I close my eyes take a deep breath, and focus on my breathing. I can’t believe my entire life revolved around Elliot’s father. They are the reason I had to hide. I had to lose all my friends and spend my life hiding and changing my name. I shake my head. I cover my face with my hands as my phone keeps ringing in my pocket.

Elliott is not his father. He probably doesn’t even know what his father did.

Why did she run? She should hear his side of the story.

    Elliot POV“I hate this place”, I say before we walk into the hospital. Hazel stops in front of me with her hands cradling my face, and she smiles.“You can wait here for me if you like”, She says, and I shake my head. No. I need to fucking grow a pair and follow my woman inside. I can’t just wait for her outside while she goes inside to get her mother. What would her mother think if I didn’t follow her daughter?I take a deep breath, and Hazel kisses me softly before she guides me inside. My hands start to sweat immediately, and she smiles at me, looking over her shoulder as she walks in front of me, holding my hand and guiding me through the sterile corridors.God, I fucking hate this smell. I hate these walls. Hazel walks inside when we reach the room, calling for her mother. Hazel lets go of my hands as she walks to his mother, and I feel like a fucking rich out of the water. I look around, and then my eyes meet the

    Hazel POV I open my eyes as soon as I hear the banging on the door. I blink a couple of times, trying to get the headache to stop. I put my foot on the floor and heard a clinking sound. Shit. I get up and rest a hand on the wall to support my weight while I walk down the corridor. I lean against the door to look through the magic eye, and I shake my head before I unlock the door and open it to find Elliot. His hair is messy, and his eyes are red. He looks worried and pissed. He walks inside and pulls me into an embrace. A tight one. I leave my arms hanging as he hugs me, kisses my cheeks, and then my lips. I pull away from him as he looks at me, frowning. “Why are you here? Why is your phone off?”, he asks, and I shrug, walking further into the house and towards my bedroom. I can feel him following me, and it’s like the warmth from his body is trying to find mine. I can smell his expensive aftershave. I flop ba

    Hazel POVI look out of the window to see the two men outside; they look massive, both dressed all in black and covered in tattoos. They have been following me around all day when I came to class. I roll my eyes as I watch Elliot walk past them towards the door. Shit. I look at the professor, trying to pay attention to what he is saying, but I can’t focus when all I can think is that Elliot is in the building. I keep looking at the door and at my watch, waiting for him to barge in, but it doesn’t happen. I frown as I look outside again through the window; he is not there, and neither are the two guys.“Hazel? Are we bothering you?”, the professor asks, and I look at him with wide eyes. I shake my head. “Ermm, no, sorry”, I whisper, looking down at my textbook and pretending to underline something. He nods and continues with class. I sure as hell can’t be dealing with this. I grab

    Hazel POVAfter dumb one and dumb two left me at home, I sat on the couch just looking at the black screen of the tv. I close my eyes as I place my feet on the coffee table and rest my head back. Images of Angel fighting the guys flash through my mind, and I shake my head standing up and walking to the bathroom. I think a shower will do me good.The steam fills up the bathroom as I stand under the hot water, falling down my back and resting my hands against the cold tile of the shower. I haven’t gotten a new phone since I smashed mine, and I haven’t spoken to Elliot since Christmas Day. Tomorrow is new years eve, and I am here, alone.I finish my shower and wrap a towel around my hair and one around my body before I walk to my bathroom and choose some leggings and an oversize t-shirt. I look at myself in the mirror, and I jump when I hear the landline phone ringing. I frown as I walk to t

    Hazel POV“Can I use your shower?”, he asks, and I nod, moving from the door as he walks slowly towards me. I show him to the bathroom, and he walks inside without closing the door. I can hear the water running and the steam leaving the bathroom while I sit on the couch, hugging my legs and waiting for Angel to come out.When he comes out, he just has a towel wrapped around his waist. His broad chest is naked, with water drops running down his body. I move my eyes away as I feel my cheeks burn. He has bruises all over his body and flinches when sitting next to me.“Hazel, I am sorry”, he says, and I nod, avoiding looking at him. This man is a temptation, I am not going to lie, the way he looks at me and the way he touches me makes me think that if I wasn’t so involved with Elliot, he would’ve been a great boyfriend. I shake my head, pushing away those thoughts, and I look him in

    Hazel POV“Please come home with me”, Elliot asks me as he pulls me closer to him in bed. We had the most magical night together. The way he touched me and made me feel special was incredible. We made love for the first time, and it wasn’t the all-consuming sex we usually have. It was soft and memorable. He took his time appreciating my body and kissing me from head to toe.“Elliot, we talked about this”, I say, and she closes his eyes, covering them with his arm while I rest my head on his chest. I can hear his fast-beating heart, and I smile as I move my hand up and down his naked stomach. I trail the hair that comes from his chest down to his cock, and I smile as he shivers.“I know we did, but I don’t want you here alone, and I definitely don’t want that bloke sniffing around you”, he says, and I can’t

    Elliot POV “Good morning”, I whisper, wrapping my arms tighter around Hazel’s body. Her body reacts to my touch, and she stiffens, burying her head deeper into her pillow. I frown, watching her as she pulls away from me. I take a deep breath and sit on the edge of the bed. I pass my hands through my hair and take a deep breath before standing up and walking to the window. I open the blinds, and New York City appears on the outside. The snow is falling, and I shake my head. I walk towards the bathroom and can see through my peripheral vision that Hazel has her eyes on my naked body. But she’s been behaving very odd lately. Since the argument in her house and the fantastic sex we had, she has been pushing me away. She keeps going to the hospital every day and then to class, and that’s about it. She is not talking to me properly and is definitely not behaving as usual. I open the shower door and turn the water on,

We walk into the house, and some people walk past us, people I have never seen before, but they all greet Elliot, and he knows all their names as he greets them one by one.“Killian in the office?” he asks one of the older men that walks past us.“Yes, and he is not in a good mood”, he says, and Elliot scoffs.“When is he?” he asks before pulling me towards the office. We walk up the stairs, and when we reach the double doors, we can hear his voice coming from the inside. He really is in a lousy mood. Whoever is on the other end of all that shouting, I feel bad for them. I wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of that.Elliot pinches the bridge of hi

He’s only nineteen, and he is already married. I tried to keep him out of trouble, but trouble found him. His high school sweetheart. He is a man, and he is extremely responsible; it’s not like he is an inconsequent teenager. I don’t even think he was ever a teenager. He was always serious and very responsible towards his siblings and us.“You’re welcome, son. Have you said goodbye to your mother?”, I ask, and he shakes his head. I know that this will be the hardest thing Hazel has ever gone through, watching her firstborn son leave the country to follow his wife’s dream.“Not yet. Eliana is talking to mom”, he says, and I nod. She is not a bad girl. She was always trouble, though, she was a re

    Elliot POV “Where are you?” I ask as soon as Hazel answers the phone. “We’re home; why?” she says, and I can tell she is chewing on something, and I take a deep breath. I am so grateful that none of my kids is involved in this life. They all just want to study and have nothing to do with it, and I am here for it. “I need you all to stay inside, and please, please don’t fight me on this one”, I say, and I can hear Hazel taking a deep breath on the other side. “I have another call”, she says before she puts me on hold and answers the other call. I swear to god, if it's Killian asking for her to go there, I am going to fucking lose it. “Babe, I got to go, Killian called. They were attacked”, she says, and I take a deep breath. “I asked you to sta

There’s another war brewing, and I don’t like this at all. We had peace for so long that now we are all on high alert.We’re going to a mafia meeting. Killian can’t attend as he has had a target on his back lately. Joseph is growing up to be a great man, he is in training, and Killian is giving him his everything.

    Killian POV“Kids, stop running”, I shout as my three kids with Ashley start running through the corridor towards Ashley’s office. Joseph, the oldest one, is now ten, and he is becoming as bubbly as his mother, and I absolutely love it. He says he wants to be just like her when he grows up, and I swear I am so proud of him.“Kate, slow down”, I say, and she ignores me as she runs after Joseph, that is holding her doll hostage. “Give it back”, she shouts at him, and he laughs and holds it high above her head. Kate is short like Ashley, while Joseph, well, he is tall. He is taller than a normal ten-year-old. He is the tallest in his class.“Daddy”, Kate complains as Jo, my youngest one, watches as her older siblings fight over a doll. Jo is a lot like me, quiet, she pays attention to everything, and her eyes scan e

    Hazel POV“Come on, and we have to go”, I shout at Elliot, that is coming out of the kitchen like nothing is going on. He looks at me with an eyebrow raised, and I can’t help but laugh. “Come on”, I say, grabbing his hand and pulling him out of the living room towards the door.“I need my shoes, Hazel”, He says, and I roll my eyes. Men… Why are they never prepared? Killian called me in full-on panic mode. The man kills people for a living, and he deals with criminals and terrorists all the time, but his wife goes into labour, and he becomes a fairy that doesn’t know what to do.“Where is the kid?” he asks, and I roll my eyes. Their older baby Joseph is a sweetheart.“He’s with the nanny. They had her on call”, I reply, and he nods, walking into our bedroom to get his shoes. H

    Hazel POV “That’s not possible”, I let out, and Elliot rests one hand on my knee. “My mother told me she had an affair with Elliot’s dad, and then she met my dad, and she went to live with him, got pregnant, and Ell’s dad lost it, he tried to kill her”, I let out and Killian nods. “Yes, that’s the official story, but no one told me. I saw them together. I saw your mother telling my father she was pregnant with his child. Elliot’s dad lost his shit when he found out his best friend slept with the woman he loved, but he couldn’t do anything against his father, but he could against his mother. Your mother was already pregnant when she moved in with your stepfather”, Killian says, and I shake my head. I stand up and start pacing around while Elliot watches me. Killian stands and walks to me. “I was pissed at you, I wanted you gone; you were a constant reminder that my father fucked over my mother”, he says, and I understand that. But… what? “You’re…” I st

    Hazel POV“How have you been?” Ashley asks as we sit on the couch. I smile, looking at her, I missed her, and I missed Everly.“I am okay, I think. I was shocked when I saw a woman in the kitchen this morning”, I let out, and Ash frowned, looking at me.“A woman? What woman?” she asks, and I realise I didn’t explain myself properly. “Is he fucking serious?” she says, standing up. I grab her arm, and she sits back down while I try to explain to her.“No, not like that, calm down”, I say, and she looks at me confused and takes a deep breath sitting back on the couch.“It’s the new housemaid”, I say, and she nods. I can see the stress leaving her face, and she smiles.“Oh, Michaela? I forgot that she was working

    Elliot POV“I am sorry”, Hazel whispers, and I shake my head. She shouldn’t apologise, ever. She has no reason to. I am the one that fucked up, and I am the one that put her in danger, I am the one to blame. I cradle her face between my hands and look into her eyes. Her hazel eyes are shiny from the tears, and they are puffy and red. I feel regret in the pit of my stomach.“Don’t you ever apologise? It was all me, all my fault. I should’ve kept you by my side like you wanted to. I will be the one apologising to you for the rest of our lives”, I let out. The feelings are eating me alive. I have never felt like this before. This is a new feeling, this is new, and I don’t like it.“How about we both stop apologising?” She asks, and I realise if we want to move on, we need to leave the past in the past and keep loving each other. We need to keep making each other happy and fight for our love, fight for us.

    Hazel POVI feel Elliot’s hands moving up and down my bare back. I open my eyes to see him staring at me. I blink a couple of times, trying to adjust my eyes to the light that invades our bedroom from the window. I groan as Elliot pulls away, standing up. I frown, watching him, missing his touch already. I support my body on my elbows and watch him walk past me and into the bathroom. I flop back down, smirking at the image of his bare ass. He has a fantastic ass. I can’t get tired of it, and it's covered in marks from my nails. Scratches. I close my eyes, hugging my pillow.“We need to get up”, Elliot says as he walks back into the room, I can hear the water in the bathroom and I close my eyes shaking my head.“No, I’m tired”, I say, but Elliot straddles me, sitting on my ass and leans down, kissing my neck.
