VALENTINE'S DAY Take me instead.
Ethan’s P.O.VMy eyes widened when I noticed the red liquid streaming from underneath the door, my eyes narrowed down at it, and then my mouth hung open. “Valentina…” I whispered to myself because I hadn’t heard her voice in the last two seconds, I reached my fingers to the floor, inspecting the liquid to confirm that it was truly blood. “Valentina!!” Her name escaped my lips in a terrified shriek and I got up immediately, leaning into the door trying to hear even the slightest movement from the other side of the door, but it was eerily quiet.“Valentina, if you can hear me please say something,” I yelled as I banged on the door even harder than the first time. “Valentina, are you hurt?”There was still nothing, I knew I needed to break down the door, because if the blood belonged to her, then it was terrible because she had lost a lot of them already. I took a few steps away from the door and kicked it a few times before it finally fell off its hinges.My heart fell at the sight o
VALENTINE'S DAY The plot of the book
Ethan’s P.O.V“Since you were the last person to witness Valentina’s last moment, did she tell you anything?” One of the private detectives the school had employed questioned me, I was seated in the waiting room of the hospital.Valentina had been confirmed dead by a medical practitioner about five minutes ago, she died due to exsanguination, and it was practically my fault.It could have been a different thing to say if I had given in to my original instinct of breaking down the door instead of conversing with her, If only I had called the emergency sooner, she would be alive, probably in shock but it was still better than being dead.“Mr. Lords…” The other detective called me, he clutched the jotter in his hands to his sides and he moved his other colleague to stand in front of me. “I understand you are grieving, and this is very difficult for you, but for the sake of the ongoing investigation, we need your statement.”The words bounced off the walls of my ears, I wasn’t in the stat
VALENTINE'S DAY Not the first time
Travis’s P.O.V“Are you ready to answer me?” Ethan asked me with a small frown, his eyes were glaring daggers at me, and the look on his face was beyond satisfying so I smirked in return.“I thought I had always stated my plans,” I answered even more confidently, and Ethan nodded as he neared me. “Yes,” He answered soberly, “Except for the fact that you were the one who stabbed Valentina.” My eyes widened for a bit, I didn’t know he would catch up on this so fast, so I burst into laughter, and Ethan’s face wrinkled up in irritation. “I told you once before that if I don’t have Valentina, no one else can, this is the plot of the book and it is only right we follow it.” I answered, gritting my teeth in frustration, “Even if I have to kill her myself, I would do anything to make sure she doesn’t end up with you.” The words barely left my lips when Ethan suddenly grabbed me by the collar of my jacket and swung his left fist at my face, it was too fast and too sudden, I didn’t h
VALENTINE'S DAY More than anyone
Ethan’s P.O.VI didn’t need anyone to tell me I could guess myself, Travis was testing me as well, I knew it by my instincts, Travis was even more lethal than that cowardly bastard.If there is anyone I could bargain with, it should be Guillotine himself.I climbed out of the stairwell, I wondered how to address this, we should save Valentina, if only Travis was willing to help me, God, I have an explosive headache right now.It was either Valentina or Travis, Getting Travis locked up for a crime that he committed might help me protect her, but if I turned Travis over, it may do more damage to the plot, hereby ruining the chances of her getting back. I was in a tight spot, I glanced at the palms of my hands, and indeed there was only one major palm line left, the smallest one at that, I had just thirty years left, if I could come to bargain with him, I could use half of it this time around.This was going to be my very last chance.“Ethan…” I froze as soon as I heard the familiar voic
VALENTINE'S DAY Too little time
Ethan’s P.O.V“So you don’t have much time left?” Nathan finally calmed down and we sat inside my car, he had finally gotten to understand me. “Then how do you intend to save Valentina, when you only have thirty years left? You could die.”“There must be something I could do to help,” He suggested his brows knitting in worry. “Why don’t I offer my lifeline this time around?”I paused for a while, that was true, but I don’t think a lifeline from someone who isn’t one of the main characters would be appreciated; however he is still a child, and I didn’t even know if he had much time.I could never allow him to do something like that.“No,” I concluded out loud and his face fell. “I can’t allow you to do something so dangerous.”“But Valentina is my sister.” He argued even further. “At this point you need help, and I am willing to give it a try.”“No.” I declared.“But why?” His tone fell at the end. “Why do you go so far for my sister? She doesn’t even trust you so well, but you are ris
VALENTINE'S DAY Switching roles
Ethan’s P.O.VA small gasp escaped my lips I forgot I was supposed to remove my current age from the palm line. If that was the case, then I have just nine years left, which was nearly insufficient. Now, what am I going to do? How was I going to convince him to let Valentina live?“You see how dumb you are, Ethan.” I could hear him cackle and cold sweat peeled from my forehead, I swallowed the lump that was starting to build up in my throat, nine years is less than half of the years I am trying to bargain with. “Now, what else do you have to give to me?”His menacing voice came back and once again I was speechless because I didn’t have any other thing to offer him, there was nothing I could give to him, but if he could make use of the nine years left for me then…“I would give my life in exchange for hers,” I answered confidently hoping that I wasn’t just making a fool out of myself, there was a long pause on the other end of the phone, and I could tell he was contemplating it, it see
VALENTINE'S DAY Mission success
Ethan’s P.O.VI was never the villain of the book, which means that should be Travis's initial role, the one who kills Valentina, the one who prevents the male lead from being with the female lead that was Travis's role. Since he had switched places with me, I am now the antagonist, I am the one stopping him from being with Valentina, but since he was an original villain, he chose to kill her instead.If he was able to transfer the responsibility for that night to me, then does that mean that he was the initial assailant? “About what happened on the night of the school trip,” I started eagerly, “Who was the one who assaulted Valentina and spread those videos? Since you are the author you should know.”He might refuse to tell me but I wanted to try asking as well.“Travis did.” He answered cautiously. “Travis was the one who assaulted Valentina and spread those videos to the school.”My breathing became shaky, and I froze for a bit, I could hardly believe it, Travis wasn’t the kind of
VALENTINE'S DAY NO
Valentina’s P.O.VThe pain in my sides woke me up, my eyes opened lazily, and my eyesight was hazy, still, I was wide awake because of the stinging pain in my sides. It felt as though I had just woken up from my longest dream. Someone had stabbed me amongst the crowd, it was a tall man in a black hoody, it was unfortunate but I didn’t see his face.I deserved it.Being the daughter of someone who took away something very precious to him, I understood that he wanted revenge and I bear him no grudge, and if at all anything I had wished he hit something vital so I could finally die in peace.Damn that Ethan to hell, I turned on my sides and he was sitting right there on the couch, his arms folded and his head lowered slightly, I couldn’t tell if he was sleeping or not, and I scoffed slightly angered by his presence.What right did he have to be here? After that nasty prank, he was the only one who knew about my father’s true identity, and I am pretty sure it was because he discussed it a

VALENTINE'S DAY Epilogue- Valentine's Day
Writer's P.O.V "How is the book ending?" Maurice my assistant asked me, "I thought you were working on it the previous night." "Oh yes, but I didn't like the ending." I answered her and her eyes fell towards the laptop screen, she was too strict with me, even though I didn't sleep all night while writing this ending she might still criticize me for being a shitty writer. "I like this." A small smile reached her lips. "I never liked the fact that Valentina would die at the ending, you would never reach best seller with that mentality." I was never trying to be best seller anyways, but since she approves of this ending, I know that the book is done. I will miss talking to Ethan, and also my number one fan, Valentina, even as she died she called my book, beautiful and a masterpiece. It was different from the way the toxic web readers did. But how did the book end again..."You're going to get late for your interview." Melissa yelled at Valentina, just because Valentina was trying t
VALENTINE'S DAY The start of the original ending
Third Person's P.O.V"Travis, what are you doing here?" Valentina asked curiously before she could push the door close, he stopped it with the tip of his foot and pushed her away instead. She fell to the ground, she knew she wasn't supposed to let him come inside. "Travis." Her eyes widened when she noticed he was holding a knife again, and that was when she remember a memory that escaped her mind, that day in the crowd, she saw the person who stabbed her, and that person smiled at her. It was Travis. "What do you want?" she asked fearfully as she thought about he could be looking for, was he trying to kill her again? Or could he be looking for Ethan instead. "I see you have gotten quite close with Ethan." His eyes scanned through her angrily, and they narrowed. "You are even wearing his clothes, what is this, are you guys married now?" "What do you want?" she insisted on knowing that first. "Are you telling me you don't know? I know you remember everything, don't you try to act
VALENTINE'S DAY Travis
Valentina's P.O.V Today is the day that Ethan said I was supposed to die, I have been in Ethan's house for the last three days and he had been nothing but kind and sweet to me. I didn't even notice just how lovely Ethan was until recently. I have been getting some very strange memories, this was probably the memories of the Valentina in the previous timeline, the Valentina that died. I thought Ethan was the one who assaulted me, but he was actually the one who helped me. I just understood just how much I had misunderstood Ethan's intentions. I didn't tell him about the strange memories that I am getting, I remember so much about us now, and even the first time he kissed me in his house. "Valentina are you okay?" Ethan asked me curiously, I was spacing out while we were cooking, he nudged me softly. "I didn't know you could cook." I mentioned as i washed the vegetables under the running water. "You cook so good." "I once told you I used to cook for my mother while she was still
VALENTINE'S DAY Fight
Travis P.O.V“I never knew you were this kind of person.” My mother said and her eyes widened in horror as she threw a slap at me. I clenched the part of my cheeks that she hit. “Mom, I had told you not to go into my room, without my permission.” I was at the store today, because I noticed that my tapes were running out, so I went to get a new one. Mother claimed she was cleaning my room and she found my collections, pictures and videos. “You invaded my privacy.” “How dare you…” Father joined in, ah, I forgot to add that after looking through my stuff she also invited my father to see things too. “Who are those girls in the pictures and did you do that to them?” “Yes and what if I did?” I asked them curiously. “What are you going to do, are you going to hand over your precious son to the police?” I was daring them, my mother broke down in tears, and the tapes contained images of badly beaten women that I had sexually assaulted. I used the recordings as a blackmail I never needed t
VALENTINE'S DAY Last Act
Ethan's P.O.V I woke up with Valentina in my arms, her eyes were shut tightly, as she slept peacefully, a smile reached my face, and finally this is everything I wanted. Valentina and I like this, every day. She stirred slightly, and soon enough her eyes flew open, they blinked slightly as she stared back at me. At first two of us, just stared back at each other in silence, and then a small blush creeps on her face, and she tried to disengage from me. "Wait..." I whispered as i pulled her back to my chest, "Where are you going in such a hurry?" "Ethan..." She whispered, i loved it whenever she calls my name like this, she was very embarrassed at the moment, and I wrapped my arms around her. "We can sleep some more." I advised. "N-No..." She muttered again. "I-I need to go home, I need to go to school." "Valentina," I turned her towards me, and she hid her eyes away from my gaze, i held her chin softly and tilted her face slightly until her eyes met mine. "We can't go anywhere u
VALENTINE'S DAY Kisses
Third Person’s P.O.V (Somewhere not so near)“I am telling you this will be a success.” Guillotine said as he closed his laptop shut and he turned towards Maurice his assistant and content editor. “We should be grateful that the reviews are coming back positively tonight.” Maurice answered with a small sigh. “To be honest with you, you are such a terrible writer.” “Oh, no Maurice, don’t do this to me.” He chuckled as he reeled himself in his chair. “Writing is the only thing I know how to do.” “Your writing has been messed up lately, I was becoming concerned for you, I was about to tell the publishers you would need some rest.” Maurice added and Guillotine noticed the sarcasm in the note as well. “But since the newest chapter had been released, the readers and subscription had increased.” “Oh…” He cracked his neck tiredly, he couldn’t care less if there are people reading the book, but one thing interested him tonight. “And the characters likability?” “Um, everyone wants Ethan t
VALENTINE'S DAY Captivity
Valentina’s P.O.VThe doctor said I could go home today, I was getting discharged, and I decided that I was going to quit school and leave home. Once I stepped out of this door now, I would be free, I would try my best to hang on to my life before I disappear completely.I stepped out of the bathroom, and that bastard, Ethan was still in the room, he was sitting on the bed, and speaking to the nurse who came to clean the room. Was it me or his hair had grown a bit longer than usual, well, I shrugged, I didn’t care.Just before I was able to slip out of the room, his voice stopped me.“Valentina,” He got up from the bed and strolled towards me, I turned back and glared at him. “Where are you going?"“I’m going home,” I answered confidently, just being close to him irked me so badly, I knew I had no right to get mad at him for not keeping my secret, but I hated the fact that he was just so carefree about it. “Thank you for the support.”I forced out between clenched teeth but Ethan didn
VALENTINE'S DAY Move in with me
Ethan’s P.O.V“Valentina,” Nathan shouted again, this time even higher than before, it seemed that he was struggling with the security personnel, I withdrew from the bed, and strolled towards the door, I opened it and it was just as I presumed, he was struggling with the security personnel in front of the door. “Let me in, my sister is inside the room, Valentina!”“What is going on here?” I asked curiously as I stepped outside, only then did the security men let go of Nathan, Nathan’s brown eyes shot in my direction, and there was no sign of recognition. He didn’t recognize me, seems like Guillotine took my request into consideration. “Who is this?”I asked feigning ignorance as well, his eyes widened and a hint of recognition hit him.“You are Ethan Lords, right?” He seemed to remember me, but not more than that. “Please tell them to allow me to speak to my sister, I heard she was involved in an accident in the school.”“Of course, come inside,” I answered and the security men nodded
VALENTINE'S DAY Anger and Adoration
Ethan’s P.O.V“I said no, you can’t go home.” I rephrased as I tried to aid her understanding even better. “No matter what you do, you can’t go home unless I allow it.” I finally realized it, I can’t be soft with her, if I do, she would continue to be stubborn, I leaned in her face and she scooted backwards glaring at me. “You will stay here and leave when I allow you to.”“You can’t do that.” She snapped and I smirked. “You don’t even have any right to do this, after what you did to me, do you think I am going to listen to you?”I nodded, before pulling back, tiredly, since I was still anemic I strolled back to the couch and sat down crossing my legs again. Valentina was just too stubborn, once she had set her mind to it, she would it, she didn’t care about reasoning, what she is focused on more is her hatred for me, and there was no talking her out of it.That’s why I have decided for myself. “You have no reason to listen to me,” I shrugged my shoulders, “I will not stop you, but
