The Girl He Promised to Protect Shadow
She stood outside the building, her heart racing in anticipation, her long black hair cascading down her shoulders, tucking a stray hair strand behind her ear, the dim streetlight barely touched her as she moved, blending effortlessly into the shadows. This was the moment she had been waiting for.She lingered just outside the entrance of the apartment, a sly smile tugging at her lips. Breaking in had been almost too easy. Lana had been so wrapped in her own turmoil, so distracted, she hadn't even noticed anyone lurking nearby. A simple tool slipped into the lock was all it took to ensure the door wouldn't catch properly.As she eased the door open, a thrill ran through her. The apartment was still, the only sounds the faint hum of the refrigerator and the distant hiss of water running in the bathroom.Perfect.She stood motionless for a moment, absorbing her surroundings. Her gaze fell on the open laptop resting on the coffee table. This was her chance. With deft fingers, she scroll
The Girl He Promised to Protect Unsettling
Jason was getting ready to leave for his family dinner, standing by the door with his jacket slung over his arm. He glanced at me, hesitating for a moment."You'll be alright here alone?" he asked, his voice steady but with an edge of concern he didn't usually show.I smiled at him. "I'm not a child, Jason. I'll be fine."He raised an eyebrow, clearly not convinced but also aware that I wasn't the type to need, or accept constant babysitting. "I'll be back before midnight.""You don't have to come back tonight. Honestly, it's fine. You should just go home after. It's a long drive," I said, trying to wave off his sense of duty. I knew Jason well enough to see that he'd stay if I asked, but I didn't want to make things uncomfortable between us.We had enough history for that already.He paused, his eyes lingering on mine for a beat longer than necessary. I could feel the weight of unspoken things between us, things he never really voiced but were always there. We never became more than f
The Girl He Promised to Protect Hysteria
Jason shifted uneasily as he drove, the low hum of the engine doing little to calm the gnawing tension in his chest. He had only just left Lana's apartment, and already he regretted it. She had seemed more stable when he left, but something about her frail state still bothered him. The way she had looked at him before he left, the silent plea in her eyes. Kept replaying in his mind.Halfway to the family dinner gathering, his discomfort became too much to ignore. He pulled into a petrol station, his hands gripping the steering wheel as he sat in the car, debating whether to turn back.The family dinner could wait.Lana had always come first for him, long before anyone else ever did. He had to be sure she was alright.He pulled out his phone, opening the app connected to the discreet camera he'd placed in Lana's apartment. It was a precaution, one that Lana didn't know about, but it gave him peace of mind. The small camera sat unnoticed in the corner of her living room. He just needed t
The Girl He Promised to Protect Suspicious
When I woke up again, it was late in the afternoon. The sun filtered through the curtains, casting lazy shadows across the room, but my body still felt heavy with exhaustion. It was as if I were trapped in a dream, one I couldn't quite wake from. My mind was fogged, but something tugged at the edges of my consciousness, something Jason didn't want me to remember.As I glanced around the familiar apartment, the faint echo of Jason's whispers still lingered in my ears. He had been kind, gentle even, but there was something unsettling about the way he watched over me. A strange unease gnawed at my chest, twisting like a vine around my heart, squeezing tighter with each thought.Pushing myself up from the bed, I felt my legs wobble beneath me as I made my way unsteadily to the bathroom. The cool splash of water on my face jolted me slightly, but as I looked in the mirror, something caught my eye.A small mark on my wrist. A bruise, perhaps, lingering evidence of Jason's grip.How long had
The Girl He Promised to Protect The Phone Call
For a moment, I hesitated, considering letting it go to voicemail. But curiosity pushed me to pick it up."Hello?" My voice was tentative, uncertain."Lana..." The voice on the other end was soft but unmistakable."Who...?""It's me. Naomi."My heart soared. It couldn't be. I had spent years searching for any sign of her best friend. "Naomi?" I whispered, gripping the phone tighter, her pulse quickening. "Is it really you? How did you find me?""I know," Naomi replied, her voice soothing yet edged with urgency. "I've been looking for you, too. But we have to be careful. There are people who don't want us to reconnect."I felt a rush of emotions. "But why? Who would want to keep us apart?""Think about it, Lana. Your mother always opposed our friendship. She never wanted us to be close," Naomi continued, her tone insistent. "And now, I think she's been involved in making sure you don't find me again."I blinked, memories flooding back. My mother's disapproval had always been present, bu
The Girl He Promised to Protect Quiet Escape
The restaurant sat gracefully along the waterfront, with soft waves rhythmically lapping against the shore. Normally, the sea breeze and the serene atmosphere would calm me, but tonight, nothing could shake the unease swirling in my mind. Jason had chosen this place, one of my favourites, where the pulse of the tide should have helped me unwind.Instead, I felt trapped, like the dark water beyond was pulling me under.As we stepped inside, the warm of the restaurant felt strangely oppressive. The outdoor deck, with its swaying string lights and open view of the moonlit sea, usually filled me with peace.But not tonight.Tonight, everything felt calculated. Jason had picked this spot for a reason. I couldn't help but wonder if this was another one of his tactics to keep me compliant. Here, outside the confines of home, he couldn't easily slip anything into my drinks or food. He couldn't make me docile under his care. Maybe that was why I felt safer here, where he had less control.We we
The Girl He Promised to Protect Jason's POV
Lana had been acting off lately, more distant, more unpredictable. Her reactions were sharper, her words more deliberate, like she was thinking too hard about what to say.I could see it in the way she looked at me sometimes, questioning everything.That night when she claimed someone had knocked on the door, saying nonsense. She wasn't lying, I knew that much. I needed her to stop digging.Today, I brought her to Jerry's clinic. Just a casual visit, I told her, nothing more. She'd relax, talk to Jerry and he'd help her calm down.I'd make sure of that."It's just a follow-up, Lana," I said softly as I drove. "You know Jerry. We're all friends. This is just routine, nothing to worry about."She stared out the window, barely responding. I tightened my grip on the steering wheel, sensing the tension between us. Something was on her mind, something I couldn't quite put my finger on.When we arrived, Jerry greeted us warmly, as always. He was our friend, but I'd already planted seeds of d
The Girl He Promised to Protect Jason'sPOV : II
My stomach knotted at the question, and for a split second, I froze. I hadn't expected Jerry to dig into this now, but I should've known. He was too sharp to let it slide.I leaned against the wall, running a hand through my hair. "Jerry, you can't tell Lana. I don't want her to go through the heartbreak again."Jerry's frown deepened. "Heartbreak? What heartbreak? Jason, you're hiding too much from her. She deserves to know the truth."I shook my head, forcing myself to stay calm. "She's better off not knowing. She's already been through enough. The last thing I need is for her to remember that Samuel was pulled down by Naomi. That's all she needs to know—nothing more."Jerry crossed his arms, his eyes narrowing in suspicion. "And why are you so insistent on that? Why not let her remember the full truth? What are you hiding?"His words hit like a punch to the gut. I'd kept my secrets buried for so long, but Jerry was getting too close now. If he started prying too much, I'd lose contr

Nelson gripped the handlebars of his motorcycle tighter, his knuckles turning white, its powerful engine thrumming beneath him like a restless beast. It roared through the night streets of Sillas City as he weaved through traffic, the engine’s deep growl echoing off the narrow alleys. Lana's trembling voice replayed in his head, each word etched into his mind.“Crescent Towers… tenth floor—uh, number… 358, I think. … you’re my only hope. You have to help me.”He had hesitated at first, and for a fleeting moment, he wondered if this was a prank. But as the silence stretched after the call ended, guilt and worry gnawed at him.What if Lana truly needed help? The thought left a bitter taste in Nelson's mouth."Damn it," he muttered under his breath, twisting the throttle. The 650cc engine roared to life, propelling him forward with a surge of adrenaline.He couldn’t ignore her, not after hearing the desperation in her voice.Nelson eased his bike into the parking lot, the sound of the ru
The Girl He Promised to Protect Keeping her
The room felt heavy with unspoken tension, the kind that seeped into the walls and lingered like a storm waiting to break. Jason stood near the window, his hands clasped tightly behind his back, gazing out at the city skyline. The glittering lights mocked him, a chaotic reflection of the battle raging inside. His jaw tightened as he exhaled slowly, the sound barely audible over the hum of the air conditioning.Behind him, Jerry sat at the table, methodically sorting through his medical bag. The precise clink of glass vials against one another was the only sound, a steady rhythm in the charged silence.“Jerry,” Jason began, his voice low, almost a growl. “I need your help.”He didn’t look up immediately, but Jason noticed the subtle stiffening of his shoulders. When Jerry finally met his gaze, his expression was guarded, his movements deliberate as he closed the bag.“I’m already helping you, Jason,” Jerry said coldly. “More than I should.”Jason turned, his expression dark. “We’re not
The Girl He Promised to Protect Help!
I lay motionless, every inch of my body weighed down by exhaustion. Outside the bedroom door, I could hear them.Jason and Jerry, discussing my condition in hushed tones.I strained to catch snippets of their conversation, words like "dosage" and "observing" drifting through the crack. They sounded calm and steady, but to me, it felt more like they were plotting my imprisonment.Then I noticed it.Jason's phone rested on the seat where he usually sat while keeping watch over me. The screen glowed, a recent message half-typed, abandoned in his haste to follow Jerry. My heart thundered in my chest, adrenaline surging through my veins.This was my chance.Ignoring the throbbing pain in my stitched hand, I dragged myself to the edge of the bed, fingers outstretched toward the phone. I trembled, fighting to steady my breath.My mind raced as I navigated to the contacts list.Nelson.He was my only hope. After the heated argument with Jason days ago, I clung to the belief that Nelson would n
The Girl He Promised to Protect Route to Freedom
For the next two days, the walls seemed to close in, inch by inch, and despair began to creep into my bones. I had hoped that playing the part, feigning obedience, would give me some space—maybe a chance. But Jason didn't leave the apartment.Still, he stayed, his presence shadowing me with its quiet, unnerving calm.Most meals arrived at the door, delivered with barely a sound, a silent reminder that I was cut off from the outside world. Jason set up his laptop on the counter, working without a word. Though he gave me the freedom to roam the living room, even watch TV, it felt orchestrated. As if he wanted me to feel relaxed enough to drop my guard.I tried to distract myself with the television, flipping through channels for anything that could pull me from this claustrophobic existence, but nothing caught my interest. Every laugh track, every news anchor's voice felt hollow, echoing against the surrounding silence.There was no way out. Every door locked from the inside, every windo
The Girl He Promised to Protect Her Guardian
Jason stepped out of the shower, his movements relaxed as he wrapped a towel around his waist, droplets of water clinging to his skin. He noticed immediately that Lana was not in her room, but it only deepened his calm. He knew that there was no possible way for her to get out.He had seen to it. She was safely contained, her every means of connection to the outside world secured or removed. He'd thought through each scenario, each potential escape, and he knew with certainty that the only way she was leaving was with him, to Granata.As he dried his hair in his room across from Lana's, Jason glanced at the clock on the living room wall. The time was nearly up. He needed to change her bandage. He draped the towel around his shoulders, with a steady breath, he padded toward the kitchen, a small smile curving as he found her there, sipping a glass of water. She turned at the sound of his approach, her expression calm but distant, masking the tension he knew was hiding underneath."I hope
The Girl He Promised to Protect Cage
My arm throbbed lightly, a raw, stinging reminder of the wound left from yesterday. I winced, testing the movement, but relief washed over me when I realized it wasn't deep enough to slow me down.I needed to move fast, to be quiet. The shower hissed from behind the closed bathroom door, the only sound in the apartment. I took a quick, steadying breath.If there was ever a time to get out, it was now.I padded across the living room, feeling every muscle tense with purpose. When I reached the front door, my fingers went to the lock.I froze.That unyielding panel of numbers stared back at me, unmovable and impassive. I punched in the only codes I thought might work. Birthdays, common combinations, even random sequences. But each attempt ended with a sharp, unforgiving beep. My heart hammered in my chest. He had activated the security locked down system, blinking red with each failed entry.With growing dread, I tore my eyes from the door and cast a frantic glance around the apartment.
The Girl He Promised to Protect Obsession
I blinked awake, my eyes adjusting to the dim light as I took in the soft shadows of the room. My hand throbbed slightly, wrapped in a fresh bandage.The antiseptic smell lingered, a reminder of how closely Jason had hovered over me. It felt like a weight pressing on my chest, this feeling of being caged. I needed to get away, away from his grip that seemed to tighten with every passing day.I shifted on the bed, letting out a quiet sigh. A warm hand squeezed my shoulder, gentle yet firm. Jason's voice reached me through the haze, soft and careful. "Hey, you’re waking up. I’m here.”Blinking, I opened my eyes, struggling to bring the world around me into focus. My mind felt heavy, muddled, and it took a moment to recognize where I was. Jason’s face hovered over me, a faint, reassuring smile on his face.The sunlight seeped through the blinds, casting soft, crisscrossed shadows over the room, grounding me slightly in its warmth. As I looked around, my eyes caught on the IV bag, nearly d
The Girl He Promised to Protect Apology
Lana began to stir, Jason felt a flicker of hope. He gently squeezed her shoulder, his voice low and soothing. "Hey, you're waking up. I'm here." Her eyes fluttered open, revealing a mix of confusion and fatigue. He smiled reassuringly, hoping to ease the disorientation that seemed to cling to her.The sunlight filtered through the blinds, casting soft shadows throughout the room. He glanced at the IV line, noting that the bag was nearly empty. The remnants of the medication administered by Jerry would soon be out of her system, and he hoped that would bring Lana back to herself."Here, drink this," he said, pouring warm water into a glass. He carefully raised it to her lips, watching as she took small sips. "You need more restful sleep." He added, wanted to ensure she felt comfortable and cared for."Jerry came by to check on you earlier," Jason explained, keeping his tone gentle. "He set up the IV to help you recover. It's almost done now." He gestured toward the line on her arm. "He
The Girl He Promised to Protect Here, with me.
Jason eased Lana onto the bed, taking care to settle her comfortably before pulling the blankets up snugly around her, cocooning her in warmth.He brushed his fingers gently through her hair, smoothing out any strands that had strayed, letting them slip like silk through his fingertips.A mix of tenderness and guilt deep within him stirred, he lingered a moment longer, his gaze tracing her face as she slept, realizing just how far he had gone to keep her close, even if it meant crossing lines he'd once vowed never to cross.Making sure she was settled comfortably, Jason moved to close the blinds, casting the room into darkness, softening the edges of reality.The dim light created a quiet cocoon around them, shielding her from the world beyond those walls. He lowered himself onto the mattress beside her, the mattress creaking slightly under his weight.He observed closely as the tension in her expression eased, her brow softening as the pain began to recede. Her bandaged hand lay limp
