Danielle's POV
The whole world slowed down and I found myself setting hours in seconds. I watched the car deplete and scatter into pieces. I wanted the car to roll over and hit the truck slowly.
I rushed out of the car and ran to the scene. Bryan tried to stop me but I pushed him away. The car was emitting smoke and sooner or later, it might explode. I looked for tears and I couldn't find it.
Bryan reached me and opened the door of the upside-down car. The man driving the car was dead. The car was now painted red, blood that I did not want to belt was my daughter's.
Bryan pulled her out and there she was, lying lifeless. Everywhere was silent, all I felt at the moment was pain. Bryan spoke words that I could no longer understand.
He carried her into his car. It's the first time Bryan would shed a tear in my presence. All of that didn't matter.
I ran free and got into the car. He sat in the driver's seat
Bryan's POV I watched in terror as life almost left Danielle where she stood. She looked at the doctor like she had just seen a ghost. I could tell what was going on in her mind and I hoped the doctor wasn't going to say it. She had a bad expression on her face and she just stood still for a minute before coming closer to us. “I don't think I would have to talk to you in private anymore,” she said. Danielle sat down on the chair with a pale face. She didn't say a word, she just sat there, looking blankly. “What's wrong?” I asked. “The girl, she needs blood.” “Well, then give it to her. why would you start operating without giving her blood?” I questioned. I ran my fingers through my hair and glanced at Danielle. I doubt she was hearing what we were talking about. I can't imagine a thousand thoughts going through her mind. I was dazzled in my thoughts for a second. “We are out of her blood group. Going out to get
Isabelle's POVI paced around the hall and dialed Bryan's phone for the hundredth time if I was counting. Where the hell did he take his ass to?“Erm…when did you say he's coming? We want to know when the party is starting so…yunno…” James is such an annoying human being.Shit, where the fuck is Bryan. Everyone is here. I have Alex, Bruno, Eric…all my mates from school are here and now, I can't find Bryan.It's a few minutes to midnight and everyone stood there, drinking and eating. Some were kissing and stripping themselves in the darker corners of the hall.“Isabelle?”I turned and came in contact with Davis. Long lost boyfriend. I cleared my throat and adjusted my gown. “It's been a while, I guess.”“It's been six years, four months, and two days.” he checked his wristwatch and continued, “...and about right hours.
Danielle's POVI rolled on the soft surface where I lay. Slowly, I opened my eyes and found myself in this weird luxurious room. I rubbed my eyes and found Ella right beside me.I sighed in relief. At least, now I'm sure nothing is wrong with her. I kissed her forehead and went to the window. I took a deep breath as the sun kissed my skin.Never again do I want to encounter a day like yesterday. Are we still in the hospital? It seemed like it. All the medical stuff was still on Ella's body.Looking at the state she is in makes me regret getting closer to Bryan. Being close to him is very dangerous and I didn't think it could affect my kids.On the table next to some flowers was a picnic basket with a handwritten letter. It says:I figured you love pizza. It's my mother's recipe.Bigger UncleAn involuntary smile appeared on my face. That wasn't planned. I opened the basket and foun
Danielle"S POV “Who do you think is behind this, do you think it's Isabelle?” Clara asked me. My hands turned into fists upon hearing her name but it couldn't be her. “ I doubt it is. She doesn't know about my kids and if she did, why strike now?” Clara nodded slowly acknowledging my thoughts. “Indeed. Girl, why do you keep having enemies? I thought you'd be over this since high school.” “I thought so too Clara, I thought so.” She chewed on a cotton candy with an angry face making her look like Tom when Jerry got off his grip. “I’d find them and make them know what I can do!” she stomped on the ground and kept an impressive “Clara-can’t-do-shit” expression on her face. She swung her candy ludicrously and wiggled her ass involuntarily. Clara, I just can't get enough of her. A nurse came in and told me I had a visitor. Clara and I exchanged glances, wondering if it was Bryan or Gabriel. I went out
Danielle's POV With closed eyes, he broke the sensation I was about to take in as he stepped away and looked at me with a smile. Clara, wherever she stood—which I can't recall—must be having a thousand thoughts roaming her mind. He walked over to Ella and kissed her forehead. He whispered something in their ears which made them smile. He kissed Mila and Lila too before coming back to kiss my forehead. “ A guard would be here to stand guard and give them things they need to keep themselves busy. I assume Clara is going to stay with them?” I blinked and looked at Clara. She nodded. “I guess I'm the only one not getting a kiss,” she said and laughed alone then kept quiet awkwardly when no one laughed with her. He left without saying a word. When the door closed, Clara freaked out like she had been holding it in for a while.“How the fuck did that happen just now, why didn't you tell me you both have a t
Danielle's POV “I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want you to be so curious and get yourself into trouble.” She held my hands and fixed a serious expression. “Our boss is more dangerous than Mark but he protects what he loves. He has saved me once and I am sure he has saved you more than once. He guides what he finds treasure in and disposes of what he doesn't want. He keeps you safe from people like Mark. They are sworn enemies.” I sighed. There's more to all these that I do not know about. “Let's forget about that for now, it's a conversation for another day. I don't want to ruin your lovely evening.” She brought out a box and handed it over. “Go and change, he will be here no matter what.” It felt like he asked her to dress me to look like his wife. Taking the dress out of the box, it fell to the ground, gracefully showing off the floral pattern of a rose. “Woah,” the kids exclaimed. The dre
Danielle's POV The emptiness of the rooftop with the cool Ed Sheeran song playing softly from a place I couldn't point out made the night cool and romantic. The colors blended with my dress and he, like a Noble man in a suit, sat across me with love burning in his eyes. I wanted him to speak first and tell me what he had in mind that made him come to such a romantic and private place just to have dinner. However tonight will play out, I do not plan on getting laid. His thoughts didn't seem far from my own when he said we would be done in time to go back to the kids. “So, what do we start with?” I asked. “First of all,” he stood up and went behind a closed curtain. He came back with two plates of baked full chicken and pizza. Why is it always pizza, is that the one thing he knows how to do? “We eat. You asked me to have dinner with you, that's what's more important." I smiled and dug my knife into my chicken. I was starving. Thank goodness it was just us, I can eat as I please. F
Bryan's POV Soft moans escaped her mouth and her hot breath caressed my face. Oh lovely her body was, she tasted like candy. The kiss was soft and full of pleasure. As much as I didn't want to, I had to pull away and look down at her pretty face. Her lips curved up in a smile. She looked away shyly and hugged me. “I thought you'd never let me know.” I hugged her back and tried to make her as comfortable as possible. Finally, I had the chance to say it out loud. After a moment of heartfelt hug, she said she wanted to get a rest. She went ahead and sat down in her glorious dress. She fits to be the lover of a handsome and wealthy vampire. Her once happy face changed in seconds. She looked worried and thoughtful. I went over to sit in front of her. “Did something happen?” She shook her head and took a sip of her drink. “I don't want to go about fighting and arguing just to be with you. I have no idea what you want with me or what your intentions are. I can only believe what you
