I felt as if the light had blinded my eyes as I slowly opened them. I squinted my eyes due to the brightness closing them again. I re-opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was the colour white. I looked around and saw white walls surrounding me. 'Where was I?.....what happened to me?'. I gasped all of a sudden as flashes of images popped into my mind. The fire, Leo, me falling to the ground. I quickly shot up from the bed but fell back as I groaned holding my head. My head was in pain making me grit my teeth. I felt a bandage around my head and closed my eyes taking a deep breath. "Faith" I heard a heavy, deep voice speak.

"Thank you for coming....it's been long since we have had dinner together" Kate said with a smile as she hugged my mom. Atlas then walked from behind his parents and greeted my parents. His eyes then locked with me as he gave me a happy smile, happy that I was at his house. I looked at his attire and was impressed with the way he was dressed. His hair was combed neatly, slight curled at the top making him look handsome. He was wearing a black suit looking ever so smart but I just ignored his smile and hugged Kate as we both kiss each other's cheeks. "Com

How dare he talk to me like that? that ass had no idea who I am and how powerful I was, I could destroy that boy with a snap of my fingers. He said that Fai is His? I scoff on that thought. Fai was mine the second I laid my eyes on her. She was the light to my darkness, the happiness to my broken life, I will destroy everyone who comes between me and the love of my life. All of a sudden, my phone rang. In a flash I answered the call, "Dario I'm-", "Are you at home?" I cut her off in a cold tone. I heard her sigh "Yes I am, look Dario please don't take his words-", "seriously?" I finished her sentence off. "That bastard doesn't know who he is challenging Fai, he doesn't know who he is messing with, he just signed his death right off" I hissed in anger.

Wounded Hearts Chapter 27- Shocked
Faith's POVI was sitting in a meeting still stuck in my deep thoughts at what Dario had said. "Miss Abdella?" a voice called out, cutting me away from my thoughts. "Y-yes?" I replied after clearing my thoughts. "Are you okay?...I've been calling you for about 5 minutes but it seems like you zoned out" Atlas asked professionally as we were in a meeting. "Yes, I am fine" I answered looking away from him. "Please continue" I nodded to the person who was giving us a presentation. Throughout the meeting I could feel a burning gaze on the side of my face and knowing who was behind it, I ignored the gaze and focussed on the presentation instead.After the meeting had ended, I started to pack up my belongings and was going to walk out of the door until someone caught my wrist. I looked at the hand that grabbed my wrist and trailed my eyes along it until it reached a face that I once loved. After waiting for everyone to leave the room Atlas

"Excuse us please" I growled not taking my eyes of Dario's face as I dragged him outside of the room into the back. "Have you lost your mind Dario? What an earth are you talking about?" I quietly shouted at him. Instead of his silly smirks, he gave me a serious expression. "I lost my mind the day my eyes laid on you my love and yes I know what I am talking about. I want to marry you, end of story" he said with a dark tone, our noses now touching each other. "No" I pushed him back. "No... No....no way Dario. You can't do this to me" I said with unshed tears in my eyes. His face softened as he moved closer to me. "If you don't marry me then your parents will force you to marry Atlas and that is something that I will never allow to happen" he stated. "No, they won't. I already spoke to mum and she said she wouldn't do that" I replied

Atlas's POVI held up the beautiful white wedding dress imagining my Faith in it as she walks down the aisle, me taking her hand in mine as we say our vows ending it with a kiss. I smiled at that thought, she will look beautiful in this dress.I chuckled to myself as I held the dress in my hands entering her room. I watched her sit next to the window with a blank face, her arms hugging her knees. I decided to take her chains off for today as I now have cameras all over the house. I even have a tracking device on her so I will know where she is if she ever tries to escape me again."Look what I have for you my angel....isn't it gorgeous?" I asked with excitement. Faith ignored me and continued looking out of the window as she wiped her tears. My heart squeezed in pain b

"Sir please...you need to calm down or else it will affect your health" the nurse said. The doctors helped me lay on my bed as I looked down in pain and anger."How...how long have I been here?" I asked quietly. "Over 6 months" he said. I snapped my head up at him, "6 months?" I asked in disbelief. I ran my hand through my hair. Damn 6 months?....where is my Faith?.

Atlas came in with a tray of food. "I'm sorry my Angel for coming late but I needed to punish you. By the way the kids are doing well, they both miss you a lot, Leo doesn't go a day without asking about you" he said making me secretly smile.

I need to contact my family....just one call and it could save my children's life. "Not sleepy?" Atlas asked in his husky voice. I stayed silent, my lips in a straight line. He rubbed his eyes and sat up. I felt his gaze on my face but I continued looking at the ceiling."Angel...why won't you talk to me?...It's been 2 days and you haven't uttered a word....I'm dying to hear your voice" his voice shook weakly like he was about to cry. I heard him sigh as he bent his forehead against mine but I quickly snapped my head to the side feeling disgusted by his touch.

I never....I never want to hurt her....I never want to raise my hands on her ever again because I lost her for that reason and many more."Faith....you need to eat" I spoke as I held a bowl of noodles in my hands.
