Ethan’s Pov
“ I thought you are in the mansion? What happened?”
Jared asked while we are sitting in the couch inside Lauren’s hospital room. I first thought that she needed to rest in the mansion but seeing all of her bruises, I needed to take her to the hospital.
“ She needed medication.”
I told Jared while looking at Lauren who is now peacefully resting in her hospital bed. A doctor checked her earlier but I sense that there is something wrong. She was supposed to wake up but she hasn’t regained her consciousness ever since we’ve come here.
I am thinking deep. What happened to her? What did they do to her?
“ Are you sure about this?” he asked and I nodded. Jared is here when the doctor told me everything. I can’t think of rational decision. I feel cold but what choice do I have?
“ I’ll leave it up to you. The doctor said they needed answers u
Ethan’s Pov“ Babe…”She is still sulking and crying. I thought we can make it through, I thought we will help each other to heal in our wounds but I didn’t thought of how she felt as a mother losing her child.“ They told me you haven’t eaten yet. Do you want me to cook for you?” I asked in a sweet and happy voice. I am trying my best to stand in our relationship but it is so hard seeing her like this.“ I don’t want anything. How’s work?” she casually asked and her voice is cold, stern. It bothered me the first time that I’ve heard of it and right now, it bothers me more because I thought it was just an effect of losing our child but even after a week, the tone of her voice didn’t change.“ ‘I-It’s okay…” I forced a smile and tried to kiss her neck. I want her to feel loved but she avoided my kisses and stand up.
ThrowbackEthan’s Pov“ Get out of there boy!”I heard the man shouted but I didn’t move in the bed. I am in the corner and I am shivering out of cold. My mother just died because of me, my girlfriend cheated on me and now, I am in shelter with someone who claims to be my father.Too scared, I crawled to the corner. It felt safe to be there and somehow, I just wanted to be with my mom. Is she finally resting? Did she die peacefully?“ What the fuck are you doing there?!” the man approached me but my anger towards him resurfaced. Maybe he is the reason for everything, maybe all of these things happened because he shows up after being a coward.“ You killed my mom!” I shouted and punch him in his face. He didn’t avoid anything and he just let me punched him until I am sighing heavily, until I am tired.“Did it make you less in pain?” his eyes reflects mine.
Lauren’s PovI didn’t know what I needed to feel anymore. It feels like nothing is going right with my life. Everything is a mess, from my life to my emotions and to all of the things that is happening around me.Ethan…. after all of our argument and conversation last night, he stayed in his study room and didn’t go outside. He didn’t talk to me nor asked me to eat with him like he always does. It breaks my heart that our relationship is bruised like this.I put my hand in my tummy and imagine that my child is still there but I know that he wasn’t. He is dead but how can everyone expect me to just suddenly accept that?When I was kidnapped, I did everything I could to protect my body. I’ve accepted all of the blows while trying to avoid being hit in my tummy because I know that I needed to protect my child but I failed. I failed to the point that I’ve lost him.I know that I’ve be
Memories“ Prince E-Ethan!”The young Lauren shouted as soon as she arrives in the beach. They are going in a vacation with Ethan’s family and she is very happy.“ Hello, princess.”Both of their parents’ giggles because of their sweetness. They don’t know that their friendship will bloom like this.“ Come one, don’t swim to the deep part, okay?”Ethan and Lauren both nodded before they run to the seashore. Throwing sands and chasing each other like they are living their best life.“ W-Wait, prince!”Lauren shouted while hugging her knees and stopping. Her exhales is too heavy, exhausted from all of the running.“ No more, princess? You’re weak. My princess weak but she’s cute.”Ethan smiles while looking at the young Lauren. His eyes twinkles watching how her lips formed in a pout because he teased her ag
Ethan’s Pov Wrath… I’ve never thought that I will feel it at this kind of emotion. Seeing her right now makes me want to just snapped her head and dug her eyes out. Megan killed my father,mother and my unborn child. She kidnapped the love of my life and leave a scar in our relationship. “ Did you miss me?” she asked and I looked at Lauren’s worried face when I saw what she is holding. A gun. I am not afraid of it, I have used it a lot of times but this situation is different. Pulling Lauren, I put her at my back and shield her using my body. Today, I will not let anything happen to her. Blood. All I can see is blood. My body trembles not with fear but with too much rage but I tried to calm down to not trigger anything. One of things that father taught me during my training is to stay calm, amidst the war. Staying calm is a power and a strategy to read the enemy’s plan. “ What are you doing here?” I asked
LAUREN’S POINT OF VIEW. I’ve waked up with a heavy breathing, tears are falling right into my eyes. I wished it was just a dream. A bad dream because I cannot live my life if it is true then my eyes landed into my clothes. There is blood…. In my shirt, there is a blood. A stained of fresh blood and my tears flows heavily. I don’t want to think of it but I cannot help myself. Afraid of everything, I’ve stand up and walked through the hospital’s pathway. The white walls which I am always seeing is beginning to give me goosebumps. Where is he? I’ve cried with my thoughts. No. It was just a dream. I just saw him get shot and my hands….my hands just killed Megan. I pulled the trigger to protect Ethan but I was late. Too late. “ Where’s Ethan?!” I asked in the first doctor that I saw. He looks shocked and confused for a second. Until, he guides me to a certain room. Four men wearing black suits is guarding the door and
Third Person’s Point of View“ Do you think death is real?”Ethan looked at his girlfriend because of her sudden question. They are in their living room and watching a movie. Ethan is using Lauren’s lap as a pillow as he is lying down in the sofa. It felt like the most comfortable position that he’s been in his life. And looking at her, she seems to not mind.They just finished watching a movie where the main character dies, leaving his wife alone. Suffering from the sorrow while longing to her husband. It was a tearjerker and both of them shed tears while watching her agony. It was like painful moments of life and they ended up with a heavy heart.Ethan doesn’t know what to say. It’s like the movie starstruck him also. If death is real, does that mean that what happened in the movie will also happen to them?At a young age, they didn’t want to know. They mind cannot process everything b
Ethan’s PovI always thought that I wasn’t lucky enough. That the universe is conspiring against me to give me all of the bad things in this life but I guess I am just pitying myself and I attracted luck to my side these days.Lauren is like a lucky charm. A medicine that drives me to heal and recover. Seeing her worried about my condition is painful.One month, it only took one month for me to recover. One month of regaining my strength, which makes the doctor beyond surprised. Being alive again isn’t enough to measure my luck, I recovered fast more than the statistics and research which makes the doctor more than impressed.“ I’ve told you that I will give you, your dream wedding!”I scoffed at Lauren because of how hard-headed she is. We are fighting, not exactly. We are having an argument about her gown. I’ve made an effort to call an international designer, a world-renowned
EpilogueLauren’s Pov“ To be a leader, you need to be firm in your decisions. You need to show them the power that you---”I looked at Ethan and pinched her ears because of the things that he’s reading to our baby. He’s just 8 months old but he already mention, power struggle, mafia’s and other things.“ Argh.”“ Stop it babe,” he tried to get out of my touch while he’s protecting my baby bump using his other hand.“ I’ve told you to read fairy tales! A happy and infant books!” I’ve shouted.He’s really testing my patience because of the things the he’s saying. It was like during these times, he’s preparing our child to enter his world. It didn’t matter to me but I can’t just believe him.“ Okay, princess. Let me just kiss our baby boy, hmmm.&r
Ethan’s PovLove is patient…. that’s why I’ve waited for her.Love is kind….she forgave me for everything that I’ve done.It doesn’t envy, it doesn’t boast, it is not proud.It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrong.Wrath… it makes me do a lot of things. I thought I was betrayed by the only woman that I loved and the only thing that can help me to live my life is to resort in wrath. I let myself to be consumed, in wrath so I can have a will to live my life but the same wrath makes me do things that I regret, do things that is unacceptable.Looking at her right now, tears formed in my eyes. It wasn’t tears of wrath or agony but tears of joy while watching the love of my life walking down the aisle. Clearly smiling behind the veil that slightly covers her face. Her gown is beautiful but the one wearing
Third Person’s Point of view“ Prince Ethan!”“ Prince Ethan!”The young Lauren shouted while looking at Ethan at the floor. He’s sitting in the floor and doing something with all of the beads and strings.“ Yes, princess?” he asked, still doing something and not giving attention to Lauren, who is now pouting and crossing her hand to her chest.“ W-What are you doing?! Let’s play or watched.”Whining, she sit beside the serious Ethan. He just laughed and give her a glance because of how cute she is. They are supposed to be playing right now but Ethan is busy.“ What is that Prince Ethan?” Lauren asked while looking at Ethan’s doing his craft. He shows her what he did and Lauren is confused if what is it. Then Ethan held her left hand and tie the string in her ring finger.“ It’s a ring?” she asked and Ethan nodded
