Kelly’s POVSeeing Emily on the hospital bed breaks my heart. She’s the friend and sister I found who helped me when I was struggling to survive and save myself. She made me realize that my life is important and made me see that I still have a chance. That no matter how hard I’ve been through, at the end of my path, there was light waiting to be touched.Almost a week ago, the argument between me, Matt, Pierce, and Connor and Diane Foster ended when the doctor announced Emily and Mason’s condition. In the end, Mason and Emily woke up but a huge problem arose, shocking me.Emily lost her memories and what’s worse is she was pregnant and lost her child in the accident. It was painful and so cruel. I didn’t know the whole story behind Emily’s life but I can say that she’s gone through a very hard time.“Please eat…” Matt begged as he tried to feed Emily.Emily looked at him with sharp eyes. “Who are you? Did my father send you? Huh?”Matt shook his head painfully. “No. Your father didn’t
Kelly’s POVI was sitting in front of Klay. Beside me was Pierce. We’re in our house and we called Klay here to talk about what we need to do. There was a series of deafening silence reigning us. There are so many things going on in my mind. I feel awkward. I was used to lashing out at Klay whenever I saw him and seeing him now, after everything, felt awkward.Pierce cleared his throat. “We need your help.”Pierce has always been ambitious and proud but he knows when to lower down his pride and that’s probably one of his traits that I like. He knows what to say and what to do at the right time especially now that he’s matured enough to understand every point of view of the story.Klay’s gaze remained on me for a few seconds before he turned to Pierce. “I’m willing to do anything.”“Connor Foster,” Pierce started as he sighed. “After everything that has happened. I know that he’ll plot something against Kelly.”Klay’s forehead creased. “Did you know who Connor Foster is? Aside from bei
Klay’s POVI was driving my car to go to the place where I can find Emily when one of my men called. I sent some of my people to guard Kelly from the dark. I know she wouldn't like it but I need to do this. I’ve been watching her for quite a while now. This is not only to keep her safe, but to keep me sane. I need information about what she's doing every day so I can sleep peacefully at night. To know that she’s happy and content was the only reason I have for watching her. I’m fine with that.[Sir, Miss Kelly was ambushed.]The loud screech of my car was the result of my sudden brake. I gritted my teeth and grabbed my phone from the dashboard.“What did you say?”[They were going home when someone shot their car’s tire. She’s safe, but her guards are still chasing the shooter.]I clenched my jaws and without thinking twice, I maneuvered the car and took a U-turn.It’s Kelly so no matter where I’m going or how important I’m going to do, I will always turn around and run back to her. I
Kelly’s POVPierce’s men are now evacuating all the employees in my dad and mom’s company. We’re just about to leave to help when one of the guards left to guard us fell on the floor, bleeding and lifeless. I gasped as I stared at his eyes that were still open. He got a gunshot wound on his forehead and my heart immediately raced in fear. I remember the night I was kidnapped when I was young. It was scary and... traumatizing.Pierce immediately grabbed my hand and dragged me towards the kitchen while the other guards were welcoming the newly arrived enemies with gunshots. What he did brought me back to reality.One of the guards gave Pierce a gun before he went out to help the others. I’m panicking and all I could think about is surviving this day without getting hurt or losing my baby or Pierce.“Where are we going?” I asked while I still could hear the loud gunshots echoing in the whole house.Pierce licked his bottom lip and opened the sliding door. “We need to escape.”He guided m
Klay’s POVI continued digging the soil until I found a casket. My eyes widened after I opened it and saw Emily inside. She’s pale and unconscious. No! No! Kelly will hate me more! She will never forgive me if she loses Emily.I carried Emily and laid her on the grass. I leaned and listened to her heartbeat. I cursed out loud and started giving her CPR.“Emily! Emily, open your fcking eyes!” I said gritting my teeth before I gave her air through her mouth. I did it constantly until I heard her coughing and gasping for air.I looked at her while panting. I swallowed hard and helped her sit. She looked at me while gasping for air and when our gazes met, her eyes immediately watered and she cried so hard as she lifted her arm and caressed my cheek.“Leo!” She sobbed.I clenched my jaws. Leo…I carried her in a bridal way before she could hug me. “I’ll bring you to the hospital.”I should bring her to the hospital even if people might recognize me as a wanted criminal.I gently put Emily
Kelly’s POVI held my breath for a while before I blew it roughly while sitting on the bed. The house was old but it had complete furniture. I was also amazed by how the mansion stayed beautiful in spite of the fact that no one’s taking care of it.“You should sleep now,” Pierce whispered as he sat beside me and held my hand. “I’ll look after you.”I nodded and slowly lay on the bed. He lay beside me, hugged my waist and started brushing my hair using his fingers.“I was so scared earlier,” I whispered. “I thought we'd lose each other.”He shook his head and kissed my hair. “No one’s losing anyone, Kelly.”I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I was almost dozing off when I heard Mason’s loud voice followed by a series of bangs on the door.“GET UP!”I got off the bed, following Pierce as he walked towards the door and opened it. I saw Mason knocking on another door and Matt went out of that room. He looked worried and miserable. I know he wants to save Emily, but he still needs to
Kelly’s POVI sucked my breath as I started panting. I sniffed and swallowed hard, realizing nothing pierce through my skin. I wasn’t shot. Who was shot?Tears rolled down my cheeks as I thought of one possible reason why there was no bullet that pierce through my skin. Slowly, with racing and aching heart, I turned around, praying that Pierce was safe. Hoping that he’s still unconscious.My lips parted as I cupped my mouth when I saw what happened behind me. Connor is lifeless while lying on the ground. He has a gunshot wound in between his eyes and…Klay was standing in front of me. I was facing his back and he’s slowly falling to his knees.“Klay!” I exclaimed and gasped as I caught him. He was heavy so we fell on the ground together.My lips parted again and trembled when he looked at me and coughed blood. The rain kept on pouring heavily as if comforting me. My eyes watered again as I stared at his face.“K-Klay…” My heart felt like it was being suffocated while looking at him.He
Kelly’s POVThe doctor assured me that the baby inside me is safe. When the doctor visited me, I asked her about the baby even if Pierce already told about it. Another doctor, a gyne, prescribed me vitamins and told me about the things I should do like exercise. After my heart to heart talk with Pierce, I fell asleep and woke up with a delicious scent of food. I saw Pierce preparing the food while standing in front of the bedside table.He glanced at me and smiled when he saw me looking. “You’re hungry?”I nodded and smiled back. “Yes.”He finished preparing the food and sat on the bed beside me. He helped me sit on the bed before he started feeding me. He was also feeding himself using the same spoon and I couldn’t help but stare at him.“Mom called,” Pierce said while we’re eating. “Snow’s enjoying her school. I guess we just have to let her finish her schooling there and just bring her here every summer.”I smiled and nodded at him. “That’s a good idea. It’s better for her to stay
