ARTEMY

As my gaze remained fixed on her form, a rush of uneven breaths filled my lungs, their rhythm faltering as I observed her battered body. An ominous hue of deep purple marred the side of her left leg, while an unsightly shade of green began to creep over one of her arms. Evidently, this bruise was a recent addition, perhaps no older than a week.

Further inspection revealed an array of minor cuts tracing patterns across her skin. Her face bore traces of bruising, yet it fared markedly better than the rest of her. 

One peculiar detail stood out: her stomach, a canvas untainted by bruises. The expanse from her chest to the curvature of her abdomen displayed an unblemished, pale complexion. It was as if the front of her body had been left inviolate and unto

It was a rare instance, an unexpected vulnerability.Tears. Damn tears. I was allowing them to flow."I'll await your call," Claire murmured before rising from her seat.

    ARTEMYThe following day had already arrived, Nona arrived bearing food. However, my appetite was nonexistent. My presence remained steadfast by Rebecca's side, where I held her closely, my touch gentle and hopeful, yearning for her to awaken from her slumber.Throughout the day, my companions, the men under my command, entered and exited the room. Brayden made attempts to persuade me into taking a shower, yet I stubbornly declined. Nona, displaying concern, offered to care for Rebecca while I rested, but I rebuffed all offers of assistance, distancing myself from their well-intentioned efforts.I spoke ceaselessly, my voice growing parched and aching.

    ARTEMYRegardless of the baby's lineage, whether mine or Raffaele's, its innocence remained undeniable, intricately woven into Rebecca's essence. My hand returned to her rounded belly, a surge of possessiveness mingling with my newfound determination.Rather than shying away from this sentiment, I embraced it, allowing anger to kindle within me. Raffaele's retribution wouldn't solely be for his transgressions against Rebecca but also for the harm he inflicted on this unborn child.Rebecca's movement in my arms drew my thoughts to a halt.

    ARTEMYAs the meadow unveiled its beauty, I paused, my back leaning against a tree. Gasping for breath, my gaze eventually settled upon Rebecca. Her back was turned, fixed upon the coursing stream. She perched upon a rock, her ebony tresses cascading freely.Running quietly, I arrived and stood next to her. She stared ahead, seemingly unaffected by my presence. Lowering my gaze to her appearance, I crave for a hint of a smile or a glint of light within her eyes.Alas, no one was following me, and the weight in my heart deepened, my stomach coiling in knots.She’s staring at the creek, without any signs of emotion. This place held significance within her memory, a hidden fragment resurfacing.

Shaking his head, he retreated from the room, leaving me to confront the aftermath.Once again, my attention was drawn to Rebecca. She cowered, her face obscured by her arms.
