His Unfinished Love Story Laura’s Suspicions
Daniel’s POVThe neurology ward is quiet as I walk through, a stark contrast to the turmoil swirling inside me. I've just left Jessica's room, where she lies unconscious but stable. Her condition is a complex puzzle; despite some improvement, she's been oscillating between the ICU and the neuro ward. Surgical interventions are necessary, yet her increased risk of bleeding coupled with her father's insistence on waiting for Michael's return has left us in a medical stalemate.After leaving Jessica's ward, I make my way to Laura's office. The weight of the last few days hangs heavily on my shoulders, a physical manifestation of the relentless pursuit and the haunting fears over Emma's safety. Laura looks up as I enter, her expression shifting from focused to deeply concerned. She can read the exhaustion etched on my face, a clear sign that the situation is dire. "Any news about Emma?" she asks, her voice a mix of hope and dread.I settle into the chair opposite her desk, running a han

Daniel’s POV:As the plane's engines hum steadily beneath us, the world outside the window seems detached, a distant blur of clouds and sky. Beside me, Lily's small form is hunched, her sobs muffled by the plush seat. She clutches a stuffed bear, a barrier between her and the terrifying reality we're flying into. "Daddy, is Mommy like Sammy's parents now? Did she go to heaven?" Her voice trembles, laden with a fear no child should know.I tighten my grip on her hand, mustering a calm I'm far from feeling. "No, pumpkin, Mommy is very strong. She’s somewhere far away, and there are some very bad people keeping her from us. But remember, she’s a fighter. And I promise you, we’re going to bring her back home." The words are a vow, a lifeline I'm desperate to cling to myself.Lily looks up, her eyes glistening with a mix of hope and uncertainty. "Can we go get her now? Please, Daddy, I miss Mommy so much." Her plea knifes through me, and I pull her into a hug, her small body trembling agai

Emma’s POV Seated across from me in our new, less opulent prison, Michael slides a tray of food toward me, his gaze critical. "You don't look as hauntingly beautiful as when you were just bones," he quips, a cruel smile playing on his lips. "Eat." I resist the urge to throw the tray at him. "It's none of your business," I snap back, struggling to keep my voice steady. He laughs, a sound that chills my spine. "Everything about you is my business, Emma. Your body, your mind, they belong to me." The words are a knife twisting in my gut, but I hold back my tears. Numbness has been my shield, my armor in surviving these days that bleed into each other with excruciating sameness. Reminded of my aborted escape through drowning—the memory a sharp sting of shame—I reaffirm silently: Lily needs me. No matter how dark my world turns, she needs her mother. To avoid provoking Michael further, I begin eating the food reluctantly and decide to steer the conversation somewhere else, anywhere
Last Updated : 2024-08-12His Unfinished Love Story A Shield for Scarlet
Michael‘s POVAs I stand towering over Emma, her gaze locked on mine with a mix of fear and curiosity, she breaks the heavy silence. "I don’t understand," she whispers, her voice trembling. "Were there other reasons you approached me? I was new in the country... we didn’t even know each other."I smirk, remembering the first day I saw her clumsy attempt at navigating the admissions office, dropping her documents like breadcrumbs in a fairytale. "True, I didn’t know you then," I begin, watching her face for reactions. "You walked into that bar that night, and you might as well have been a lamb walking into a lion’s den. Jessica was coming back, and I needed a distraction. You were perfect."Her face contorts in confusion and pain. "You used me... as a shield for Scarlet?" she asks, her voice cracking."Exactly," I affirm, my tone laced with mockery. "You played your part well, unwittingly."Emma’s tears start to spill, her emotional armor cracking. "Was it worth it? Did Jessica take th
Last Updated : 2024-08-13His Unfinished Love Story All Pawns of a Game That Went too Far
Michael’s POV I stand in the kitchen, hurling the tray into the sink with more force than necessary, then storm out to the living room. My mind is in turmoil, swirling with memories and regrets. The confusion isn't just about today; it's about a past that keeps clawing back, a past marked by both care and cruelty. **Flashback to 8 months ago** The door to Scarlet’s apartment swings open. The moment I step inside, the irony of her situation hangs heavy in the air. "So, Michael, am I really safe, or do I need protection from you too?" she asks, her voice dripping with sarcasm. I try to reassure her, "You’ve always been safe with me. I’m here to protect you, not harm you." But my words sound hollow even to my own ears. Scarlet doesn't buy it. She pushes further, probing about my complicated feelings for Jessica. I admit reluctantly, "It’s... complicated," feeling the weight of my duplicity. Trying to shift the focus, I pull her close and kiss her. "I have to handle something u
Last Updated : 2024-08-14His Unfinished Love Story A Confession in Shadows
Michael‘s POV After reflecting on how Scarlet ended up dead, and fearing that Emma could share the same fate, guilt gnaws at me. I know I owe Emma an apology. It wasn’t just a strategic move—over the months, genuine feelings had developed inside me towards Emma. I really wanted her to be my woman. However, any strong, independent woman like Emma would refuse to share her man; Emma’s decision to leave was understandable. I knew it wasn’t her fault that everything had come to this. It was my indecisive nature that brought us here. If only I could choose between the 3 women that mattered in my life. Scarlet offered her unconditional love to me, while Jessica promised power and Emma brought peace into my life. I couldn’t choose one of them, I wanted all of them. Perhaps if I had been honest with Emma, she might have stood by me as a friend, if not a lover. Haunted by this realization, I wander to her room. The sound of water dripping from the bathroom suggests she's showering—a small

Emma‘s POVAfter Michael stops speaking, I stand still, my gaze fixed on the wall, wrestling with a storm of despair and revulsion. His touch, his words—they sear through me, reviving every bitter memory, every moment of degradation he’s inflicted upon me. Yet, I understand the game now more clearly than ever. Michael’s behavior is the epitome of sadistic pleasure. The more I resist, the more he thrives, fueling his twisted desires.Understanding this, I resolve to adopt a new strategy: I will become the submissive prisoner, the one with Stockholm syndrome. This isn’t about genuine submission but survival, a play to keep Lily safe by any means necessary.“Of course you’ve made mistakes, Michael,” I begin, my voice steady, measured. “But acknowledging them means there’s good in you. That’s what drew me to you initially, and why I fell for you.”His eyes search mine, skeptical of my sudden shift. “Do you really mean that? Would you give me another chance?”Navigating this treacherous co

Michael’s POVThe penthouse feels too pristine today, too quiet, as I lay out the final details of our escape to Norway. Emma's sitting across from me, her body language screaming reluctance but her voice barely above a whisper. "We're leaving next week," I announce, trying to mask my own unease with a tone of finality. "New identities, a whole new life.""How did you manage all that?" Her question is faint, but the fear in her eyes is loud and clear."I had some help... from Laura," I admit, watching her closely for her reaction."Laura? But she's my friend..." Emma's voice cracks, the betrayal etching deeper lines into her already strained face.I chuckle darkly, enjoying the control. "Everyone has their price, Emma. Laura's no different. She's looking out for her own interests."The conversation is cut short by a buzz from my phone. A message from Jessica, or so it claims, saying she knows about the poisoning and has proof. It's absurd. Jessica's supposed to be in a coma, yet here

His Unfinished Love Story Dear Reader
Writing "His Unfinished Love Story" was like talking to a friend for me. It came from a place where I was struggling with family stuff, and I didn't really have anyone to open up to—no best friends or unbiased family members. Counseling wasn't my thing, so I poured it all into this book instead. This story is a mix of real-life vibes and make-believe, exploring all kinds of love—whether it’s the love for a parent, a sibling, a friend, or even the complicated, sometimes obsessive kind. What I've realized is that no type of love is superior; they all just... are. And while love can push us to do crazy things, it's not a free pass to mess up and just expect forgiveness. That kind of forgiveness, the kind that really matters, comes from a higher place. I hope my book helps you sort out your own feelings, find some peace, or maybe even close a chapter that's been open too long. Thanks for diving into this journey with me. Here's to finding your peace, whatever that looks like.
His Unfinished Love Story The End
**David’d POV** I stand there, by Scarlet’s resting place, with the familiar weight of white roses in my hands—her favorite. It’s a clear morning, the cemetery dappled with sunlight, peaceful and introspective. As I place the flowers down, I can’t help but feel a blend of solace and sorrow, her diary's words echoing in my mind. “Scarlet,” I start, my voice steady despite the turmoil inside. “I’ve read every page you left behind. It’s like having a part of you still here with me, and I’m grateful for that. You always had a way of making the world a bit brighter, even in writing.” I pause, taking a breath as I look around, feeling her presence. “You know, Emma and Daniel are back together. After everything, they’ve found their way back to each other. You worried about them, I know. But they’re happy, truly. Daniel once told me that without her, he’d be lost... an unfinished love story. Well, they’ve got their happy ending now.” My voice falters as I touch the cold stone, a part o
His Unfinished Love Story Breakfast Chaos and Family Moments
**Daniel’s POV** This morning, I can barely stifle my laughter as Lily, almost six and full of sass, unleashes a spectacular tantrum over her cereal. She’s just found out we got married without her and took a sneaky honeymoon to Santorini. “You guys are the worst secret keepers ever!” she declares, pouting. I try to explain. “Sweetie, you had school, remember? And honestly, it was just a quick vow exchange—super boring, no big party or anything.” She’s not buying it. “But I could’ve skipped school! You think I wanted to do math instead of going to a beach?” Emma jumps in, grinning. “Trust me, you wouldn’t have enjoyed Santorini. We ended up talking to the police more than we swam!” “Yeah, you should thank us. It was a disaster!” I add, chuckling. Lily's not amused. She crosses her arms. “Next time, I’m coming. No more vacations without me.” Emma and I exchange a look, suppressing our laughter as we nod in surrender. “Deal,” we chorus. I hustle to get Lily ready for scho
His Unfinished Love Story Scarlet’s Farewell
**David’s POV**Here in my New York apartment, as the relentless city rain echoes my mood, I find myself repeatedly drawn to the old, worn pages of Scarlet’s diary. This morning, the echoes of last night's indulgence weigh heavy, a migraine pulsing in the background as I numb it with the usual analgesic. But the diary demands attention once again.I flip to the last entry, a letter penned for me, her "Bumblebee," written in a moment of profound solitude and clarity.---**Scarlet’s Letter to me:**My dear Bumblebee,As I write this, sitting in the quiet of my unwanted sanctuary, the light of hope is dim, nearly extinguished. Yet there's a strange peace in knowing you’re out there, free from the burden of me. These long years have granted me too much time for reflection, and a painful truth has emerged: I loved you, David. It was never just brotherly love or friendship; it was a calm, steady love that I mistook for mere companionship while I allowed myself to be consumed by Michael's t
His Unfinished Love Story A Santorini Situation
**Daniel’s POV** *At the police car* The first streaks of dawn had barely lit up the horizon when Emma and I, handcuffed in the back of a Greek police car, were driving towards the station. The situation was, admittedly, absurd, and Emma's reaction was equally dramatic. "Why, Daniel? Why is every crazy adventure with you ending up with the police?" Emma half-yelled, half-laughed, her annoyance fighting with amusement. "Oh, come on, love. We could charm our way out. I'll start praising their baklava and yoghurt—say it's all Greek, not Turkish!" I teased, trying to lighten the mood. "That's your plan? Really?" Emma was not amused. “Maybe I could add some sugarcoating to their weird alphabet, too?” I kept teasing. "We've been married less than a week, and you're already pushing for an annulment, huh?" "Technically, it'd be called an annulment, yes," I chuckled, winking at her. She lunged at me, stopped only by the seatbelt, while the police officer in the front warned
His Unfinished Love Story Second Honeymoon
**Daniel’s POV** Driving Emma straight to my apartment after the marriage ceremony, I can't help but tease her about the neatly arranged belongings all around. She looks around, her confusion melting into a surprised smile when I explain, "I’ve been planning this day with my lovely in-laws for 2 months now." "Why isn’t Lily here then?" she asks, a hint of worry in her tone. I can barely keep the grin off my face as I lean in, whispering the next surprise. "Because, my love, we’re jetting off for a week abroad for our honeymoon." Emma's eyes widen, a mix of excitement and concern dancing in them. "But I need to take annual leave from the hospital," she counters, her voice tinged with anxiety. I put on a sad face, playing up my disappointment. "How can you not trust me with my meticulously arranged plans?" I complain, only half-joking. Her gasp when I tell her everything's been handled is absolutely worth it. "And where exactly are we going?" she probes, curiosity overtaking
His Unfinished Love Story Next chapter
**Emma’s POV***A month later*The thrill of feeling like my old self was palpable as I walked through the familiar scenic route of “the plateau” of my high school. It felt like stepping back into a life I'd put on pause, now ready to play at full volume. My phone buzzed, breaking my reverie. It was Dr. Patel, my old boss, and the last person I expected to call me after the way I'd left things."Emma, I've got a proposition for you," Dr. Patel's voice was as brisk and businesslike as ever. "How would you feel about coming back as an endocrine fellow?""But... after everything?" I asked, my brow furrowing."Let's just say I've made some calls. Your record's clear and, frankly, we need you. Are you up for it?" There was a hopeful note in her voice that warmed me a little."Okay, what do I need to do?" My heart started to race with excitement."There’s the Subspecialty Equivalency Examination next month. Pass that, and I’ll talk to the CMO about getting you a spot," she explained."Coun
His Unfinished Love Story Yes, I Will
**Emma’s POV**The sunlight was already high in the sky by the time I managed to peel my eyes open. The room was silent, save for the distant hum of the city outside. I stretched lazily, enjoying the rare luxury of a slow morning, but the sound of the doorbell sliced through the tranquility. Puzzled, I slid out of bed and shuffled toward the sound, my thoughts still tangled in the threads of sleep.Peeking around the corner, I saw Daniel chatting with my mom in hushed tones, the only word I could hear was “passport.” His back was to me, but I could tell by the way he was gesturing that he was excited about something."What's going on?" I asked, rubbing my eyes as I approached.Daniel turned with a start, a sheepish grin spreading across his face. "Morning, sleepyhead! Just sorting out some paperwork with your mom. Nothing to worry about," he winked, a twinkle in his eye.My mom, ever the conspirator, gave me a knowing look but kept her lips sealed. "Why don't you get ready, dear? Dani
His Unfinished Love Story I’m Home
**Emma’s POV**As the wheels of the plane touch down in Istanbul, a wave of nostalgia and relief washes over me. The familiar scent of the sea mingled with the bustling city life fills my lungs, grounding me. "I'm home," I whisper to myself, my heart swelling with a peace I haven't felt in months.The airport is bustling as always, but my focus narrows to the figures of my parents in the distance. As we make our way through the crowd, I spot Lily breaking free from my mother's embrace and sprinting towards me with open arms. "Mommy!" her voice echoes over the chatter, a sweet sound I've missed dearly.I drop to my knees just in time to catch her in a tight hug, lifting her into the air as she giggles. "I missed you so much, little bug," I murmur into her hair."Missed you more," she replies, squeezing me tighter. My parents join us, their faces lined with relief and joy. "Welcome home, Emma," my dad says, his voice thick with emotion as he pulls me into a hug."Did you bring me anyth
