Daniel POV:I have spent the last 8 days trying to find the man who Invented BR12. It had been the most complicated thing I've ever had to do But luckily I found him. The only problem is that it might take a few years off of my life but it's worth it if she gets to live. And she will Walking into her room I find her sleeping and I sigh. Sitting down she turns to me"Oh I thought you were asleep," I say leaning back into the armchair"Yet you still decided to stay" she retorts back"I'm sorry for having you chained but Obsidian can't be trusted," I say frowning"Can I go see him” she pleads in a whisper. She sits up straight and looks at me. I can't help but get angry"What does he have that I don't huh" I ball my hands into a fist. Banging my fist on the armrest she jumps back a bit in fear"I have always been there for you Amari. The first day you arrived in rehab I went out of my way and became a nurse there. Pretending every single day just to make sure you were okay whilst Xavie
Shadow POV:I stand up abruptly as she walks over to me in a hurry. She jumps into my arms and I catch her holding on to her tightly "I missed you," she says wrapping her arms around my neck and holding me close "I missed you too, tsvetok" I kiss the top of her head. Her scent sends a wave of calmness over me. I tighten my arms around her and I let out a sigh of contentment. We stand like this for a minute and then a quiet sob leaves her lips "Oh no sweetheart what's wrong," I asked pulling away. I gently put her down and I wipe away the tears. I plant a kiss on her forehead and look back down at her "Shhh," she says softly. My eyebrows furrow in confusion. She points a finger at the earpiece and I slowly nod"I missed you so much," she says dramatically and then sniffles. She sits down on the table and parts her legs for me. I took a quick sharp inhale as she grinned. Okay, fuck this is the first real boner I’ve had in days “What are you doing” I whispered softly. She pulls out
Amari POV: Shutting the car door I ran towards the front door. The guards look at me weirdly but I don't care. Opening the door I rush towards the living room finding them examining the artwork on the walls. Bending over I try to catch my breath"Mom, Bella," I say and they turn around with big smiles. Bella rushes over to me and picks me up twirling me around"Oh gawd look at you," she says putting me back down"Fuck I just might be Bi but today has confirmed that I'm just gay," she says grinning. Leaning over I shake my tits in front of her face and she pretends to faint. Chuckling she puts me down and I walk over to mom"Hi Mom," I say softly as I step toward her "Hi honey" she brings me in for a hug and I wrap my arms around her"I'm glad you're okay," she says kissing the top of my head "I promise he loves me, Mom," I say assuring her and she nods. We have so much to talk about "Speaking of him loving me uhm he-" I start to say as I play with my ring but Bella cuts me off "O
Shadow POV:"Can you do me a favor?" I say tucking a strand of Ms.Russo’s strawberry-blonde hair behind her ear“Anything" she blushed looking up at me. So easy "Come visit me later tonight okay preferably 7 pm "I grin at her"Are you sure I figured after your fianc-""Shh dekta, she's cool," I say leaning closer to her. I lick my lips and she eases up "Yeah uhm she is," she says shyly like something significant happened"So yes?" I ask caressing her cheek"Uhm I guess I can I'll just make something up" she smiles placing her hand on my chest. Looking down at her hand I see a beautiful green ring on her finger. Picking up her hand I take a closer look at it"Who's the lucky man" I ask smirking and she sheepishly smiles"Oh uhm it's my ex-husband's parting gift for me," she says looking at the beauty of the ring"It’s beautiful" I smile. Too bad the owner doesn't live up to the standard of it. It would look amazing on Amari thoughKilling Ms. Russo just seems too easy. She’s 24, liv
Amari POV:We both stand in the middle of the dimly lit room five feet apart "You’re naked," he says clearing his throat and I look down at myself. It only clicks now that I'm in lingerie but unlike other times today I feel confident for some reason"And you’re covered in blood," I say tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear. He grins rubbing the scruff on his chin as he strides towards me looking every bit of dominating "And something tells me you're turned on by it" he smirks and I think it over. I mean there’s just something so sexy about him covered in blood looking. Clenching my thighs I try to ease out the ache in between my legs. He puts his finger under my chin and raises it so that I'm looking up at him"Are you tsvetok?" he asked in a sultry tone. I blush trying to shy away but his grip on my chin tightens. Feeling his strong arm wrap around me, his scent mixed with the scent of blood has the ache worsening "Uhm I-", he caresses my cheek and leans down"Not so confident
Amari POV: "What" I rasp closing my eyes shut when he reaches my lower abdomen. His lips hover over my clit and I fist the sheets the anticipation killing me."I'm sorry," he says kissing my inner thigh and I sigh not understanding where this is going"For what" I ask and he pauses"Look at me," he says growing serious. Rising a bit I rest my weight on my elbows so I'm looking at him"I'm sorry for how I acted back at the cabin I uhm," he says nervously, and now I sit up straighter so that I'm giving him my devoted attention"I have PTSD and I didn't take my meds," he says not even looking at me truly speaking I've never seen Shadow this sincere. I honestly don't know what to do. I’m shocked and relieved that his being vulnerable with me right now "A long time ago I promised myself that I wouldn’t and I couldn’t fall in love with someone but I can’t keep lying to myself about how I feel about you," he says staring into space and I go towards him. Grabbing his face I make him look at
Shadow POV:I never went back to our room last night and quite frankly I just sat in my office drinking my frustration away. But it's 6 am now and I promised Amari I'll do betterSecuring my robe around my waist I walk out of my office. I walk down the hallway and the staircase and I enter the kitchen. Seeing someone sitting on the counter I pull out my gun ready to shoot but then I see the blonde hair. Oh it’s Bella"Hey," I say and she jumps off the counter clutching her cereal bowl in freight"Holy shit" is what she says when she turns around to see me"Fuckin in hell" she curses as she puts her bowl of cereal down"Sorry I didn't mean to scare you," I say opening the fridge and taking out the eggs"Uhm no ar- are you making Amari breakfast," she asked with a wide grin on her face and I rolled my eyes. I don’t know Bella or how to feel about her but she’s Amari’s best friend she can’t be that bad "Oh. my. god," she says smiling like a crazy woman whilst shoving a spoon of cereal i
Bella POV:God, it's always the good-looking ones that are such pricks. Marching towards Daniel's room I start banging on his door and then I turn the handle "What t-" Cutting him off I march into his room and start my rant"I just can't believe Xavier is such an asshole not to mention you were right his not a good guy shit what is his deal" I scream flopping onto his bed bedside him. He is quiet for a while so I sit up to see him looking at me with sleepy eyes and bedridden hair "Bella what are you doing here" he groans in his morning voice and I only realize now that I woke him up. Oh shit "Shit I'm sorry I didn't realize you were asleep," I say and he yawns running a hand through his hair ruffling it even more. Why the hell does he have to be so sexy?"Fuck so Xavier's really here," he asked sitting up and resting his back on the headboard. Wait what’s that smell "Oh my god you reek of alcohol," I say pinching my nose. I was too busy ranting I didn’t even realize it smelled lik
Daniel POV:It's been 6 months since Amari died and when Xavier pulled the trigger I was more than glad to find that the safety was still on. A part of Xavier died that day with AmariThe man that we still see today is merely a ghost with a broken heart He's been in and out of the facility and today I'm driving to fetch him Pulling into the driveway of the facility I see Xavier standing outside the doors with a cigarette in his hand and a duffel bag in the otherWhen he sees me he throws the cigarette on the floor crushing it with his foot. Parking in front of him I open the window"Hey," I say and he nods opening the car door. Climbing inside he opens the cubby hole and takes out a folded picture"She looked so beautiful," he says looking at their wedding picture"Yeah, she did," I say staring straight ahead. It still hurts to talk about her but today we have too "Turns out there was nothing we could have done. A while back the doctors predicted she wouldn't live past the age of 18
Xavier POV:"Are you serious right now the wedding started 40 minutes ago" Daniel says as I stand beside him at the altar. Damn, why is he so uptight?"I had to take care of something" I smirk fixing my suit when I think about what just happened in her changing roomEven though Daniel and I aren't close at all, for Amari's sake I made him my best man. The music starts playing and all the guests stand up. Smiling I straighten up when see Amari by the archway. There’s a bunch of audible gasps when they see her. Suddenly feeling out of breath I wipe my hands down my suit pants. She looks breathtaking. She makes her way through the doors and my eyes widen even more Fuck me After Amanda falling in love was never in the cards for me. I had trust issues and ever since then, the girls I've been with were just there to suppress the hurt I have accustomed myself to. Practically a means to an end When I met Amari I wasn't looking for love it was a simple interaction that had to happen cause i
Daniel POV:Too many days have gone by and every time I try to talk to Amari about the cure something or someone distracts her from the conversationIt's her wedding day today so I had the gift hidden under the gifts table for safekeeping. I wanted to tell her one-on-one but now I'll just tell her when everyone is in the same room this evening"Daniel you look handsome" Turning I see Bella standing in the doorway looking every bit as stunning as she is "Thanks, Bella", looking at myself in the mirror I have to say having the girls wear caramel and the boys wear Mocha was a nice touch to the weddingAmari wanted the wedding to look like a coffee drink. According to Bella the last three months Amari has been obsessed with Starbucks so you can imagine there is even a Starbucks pop-up shop at the reception"You look beautiful, Bella," I say turning to face her and she smiles doing a complete 360. Wow just wow. Walking over to her I stop in front of her "Thank you" She hooks our hands an
Chapter 47: Pregnancy test? Snuggling closer to him, I plop some butter popcorn into my mouth. A scary scene comes up in the movie and I hide my face in his chest. “Is it gone? Tell me it’s gone” I ask, and he chuckles resting his head on the top of mine. “It’s gone, Tsvetok,” he says. I take a slight peak to find the scene gone. This was my first time watching a horror movie. I haven’t had much time to watch movies lately, so Shadow advised we watch his favorite horror together. Mama. It’s about a dead woman who adopts these two little girls after their father tries to kill them. I thought it was going to be cutesy, but instead, she started killing people and refusing for the little girls to go back into humanity. “I don’t like this anymore” I sob, watching the youngest girl getting pulled closer to the edge by the demon lady. Shadow turns the T.V. off and turns to me. “No more, see,” he says. I blow out a breath and I shove a handful of buttery popcorn into my mouth. “It was s
Amari POV: "Hey you can't go in there," the shop assistant says. Turning we look at very out-of-breath and exhausted Daniel"You came, "I say smiling. He scans me from head to toe and smiles "I saw your note on my bed and I just couldn't miss this. Roza, you look incredible" he says nearing me. The tears I thought wouldn't fall start to fall one by one"Aww roza don't cry," he says bringing me in for a hug"I'm sorry"I whisper and he plants a kiss on my forehead"Don't be I'm glad I'm here" he says squeezing me tighter"I am too, "I say embracing his warmth"Okay well enough of the shit show we should get going," Bella says clapping her hands. Daniel chuckles and he breaks the hug. Fixing myself I go back into the fitting room and take off the gownWalking back out Daniel already has my dress on a hanger. He hands it over to the lady and she takes the price tag to the counter"Oh I am so glad you found a dress," the shop assistant says scanning the tag"I loved every piece but this
Amari POV:Xavier and I ate breakfast then we took a shower together. He suggested we head into town but instead, he flew us to Italy. I should have known he didn't mean the local town in MoscowAfter landing he got us a car that dropped us off in a street filled with many boutiques. Turning to Xavier I looked at him in confusion. I thought we came to get the ring "What are we doing here," I ask and he smiles pecking my lips"Shopping spree," he says climbing out of the car and waiting for me to do so. Grabbing his hand I jump out of the car. Still surprised and slightly confused I look at all the beautiful buildings. I knew I was homesick but being here now is making me realize that I missed Italia "We didn't have to go to Italy for this, "I say hooking my arm on his"Well you're half Italian aren't you so let's see if you're any good" he walks us towards a boutique with cute pretty dresses. Opening the door the bell dingles and the lady by the counter walks up to us"Salve, come p
