Rima’s POVTrue to Lucas's words, the ceramic blade was not detected during the quick but thorough search the men conducted on me. Dressed in black and carrying concealed weapons, they waited for me outside the main gate.Without any further delay, they ushered me into a car and we sped off through the city streets. My heart pounded in my chest, threatening to burst from the terror that coursed through my veins.As the cityscape whizzed past, I tried to plan my actions and words. How could I minimize the damage to both Jacob and myself? The ride seemed to stretch on forever, and my mind was filled with horrifying images of what George might have done to Jacob.Regret filled me as I thought of how I had let Jacob convince me to stay. Why hadn't I been strong enough to let him go when it was the obvious choice to keep him safe from George?The car finally came to a stop in front of an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of Toronto. The place w
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 88. Truth or Deception
Jacob’s POVFrom the moment her silhouette appeared in the harsh, industrial gloom of the warehouse, a sense of dread coiled in my gut. Her eyes, flickering like restless fireflies, darted around the room, capturing every insignificant detail as if they were vital pieces in a life-or-death puzzle. She had come prepared for battle, ready to plunge into the throes of hell to free us from this waking nightmare. But a volcanic fury bubbled within me. Lucas had sworn to me, his promise as solid as bedrock, that he wouldn't drag her into this dangerous mess. Yet, here she was, tossed into the ravenous lion's den due to his reckless disregard.When she began to speak, her voice flowed steady as a mountain stream, her gaze locked in a deadly dance with George's. The words she uttered, proclaiming her love for him and reducing me to a mere pawn in her game, landed like brutal punches to my gut. I clung desperately to the hope that she was putting on the performance of a lifetime, that she was
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 89. I Wait, I Hope, and I Pray
Rima’s POVThe world around me feels like it's spinning, out of control, faster and faster. Images flash through my mind in a chaotic whirlwind. Jacob, lying on the ground, blood staining his shirt. George, my husband in name only, smiling cruelly as he forced me to play the dutiful wife. His body, lifeless and cold on the floor, my hands stained with his blood.Shooting Jacob... My heart clenches at the thought. It was a desperate act, a last-ditch attempt to save him. The memory of pulling the trigger, of seeing him fall, sends a wave of nausea through me. I had aimed for his chest, further away from his heart, I prayed to every god I could think of that I wouldn't kill him. That I wouldn't lose him like I'd lost so much before him.If I had let George pull that trigger, Jacob would be dead now. A bullet in his head, instant and unforgiving. But there was a chance, a slim, horrifying chance, that I could save him and I had no other choice but to take it.After George took me away, J
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 90. And then, I Snap
Rima’s POVJacob is moved to the ICU, and Lucas and I follow suit, staking out a spot outside his door. We're not allowed inside, but somehow, just being nearby feels like the right thing to do. Savas, who had been with us earlier, has disappeared somewhere, leaving Lucas and me in the sterile, silent corridor.My head snaps up when Lucas's phone rings, the shrill tone cutting through the hushed atmosphere. From the moment Jacob had been kidnapped, Lucas had called Alex, who had promptly booked the first flight to Toronto, along with Jenny and Diana.As Lucas speaks into the phone, describing our location and the path to take, it's clear they've arrived into the hospital. He ends the call and steps away, intending to meet them halfway and guide them here.Suddenly, the thought of facing the rest of his family is overwhelming. The thought of being questioned about what happened, potentially being blamed for Jacob's kidnapping without even knowing it was me who shot him, is too much. Pa
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 91. You Have to Come Back to Me
Rima’s POVAs the standoff between the doctor and me continues, Diana intervenes with a soft "Wait" She turns to me, her face a mask of concern and gentle reprimand "You don't need to do this" she says, her voice fervent but quiet."Enduring this pain won't absolve you of whatever guilt you're feeling. It won't change what happened. All it's going to do is hurt you"Her words ring in the silence of the room, but I remain rigid, my jaw set. I want to argue, to tell her she doesn't understand, but the words won't come. Instead, I just shake my head, a silent refusal of her plea."Please" she insists, her gaze never leaving mine "Don't do this to yourself. It won't help. It won't bring you peace. It'll only add to your pain"I can hear the desperation in her voice, see the worry in her eyes, but I can't bring myself to relent. The guilt is too heavy, the need for punishment too great. But even as I steel myself for the pain, a part of me is touched by her concern, her determination to pr
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 92. He’s Safer Without Me
Rima’s POVThe hours roll on, morphing into a timeless void with only the periodic updates from the medical staff providing any sense of progression. Each report echoes the same sentiment – Jacob is stable, but not yet out of the woods.I ignore the pleas from Diana, Alex, Jenny, and Lucas to take a break, to eat something, to rest. Every fiber of my being is focused on Jacob, on willing him to wake up, to fight, to live.Jacob was granted only a single visitor, a harsh rule that felt particularly cruel in these circumstances. To my utter surprise, Diana offered her spot to me."Diana" I began, my voice choked with emotion "you should be the one to go in there. You're his mother, the closest person to his heart"Her suggestion had left me reeling. Of course, I cared deeply for Jacob, but Diana... she bore a bond with him that was irreplaceable, a bond born of a lifetime of shared memories, of joys and sorrows, triumphs and failures. She had nurtured him, loved him, stood by him throug
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 93. You Have to Believe Me
Rima’s POV"Jenny" I murmured, my voice cloaked in caution. My mind was a whirlwind of questions, chief among them being how much of my conversation she had overheard.She was a statue in the hallway, her wide eyes locked onto mine, her features frozen in a mask of shock. Her stillness was a deafening silence that spoke volumes, hinting that she had caught more than just fragments of my desperate plea.Without a word, I reached out and took her arm, my fingers closing around her wrist with a firm but gentle grip. I led her into the bathroom, the door clicking shut behind us with an air of finality. Enclosed within the stark white walls, we were in our own world, a world swirling with secrets and desperate decisions."Jenny" I repeated, my voice firmer now, a sharp edge hidden beneath the softness, intended to yank her back from the precipice of her shock.She blinked, her eyes clearing as she focused on me. Gathering herself, she found her voice “You’re not going anywhere, Rima. Jacob
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 94. Is It True?
Rima’s POVI found my gaze locked on Savaş, my mind whirling as I tried to sift truth from falsehood in the shocking revelation offered by the girl named Rosalie.For a few electrifying seconds, the room was held hostage by their silent confrontation, their eyes locked in a battle of wills. This tense standoff persisted until I, unwilling to let it continue, shattered the silence."Is it true?" I demanded, my voice hardening as I turned to Savaş.His stern gaze met mine, stripped of the dark fury that had seethed in his eyes when he'd looked at Rosalie "No""Sure, go ahead, believe him. Words are so easy to say, aren't they?" Rosalie shot back, her tone dripping with biting sarcasm."Go back to your room" Savaş commanded, his voice a dangerous growl as he closed the distance between them. The threat in his steps seemed to have no effect on her, her only reaction was the tightening of her fists at her sides."What's the matter? Y
