All Chapters of Meant To Be Yours: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Still in deep shock, Aidan Waldorf could still not focus what was happening in reality. It was as if he had zapped out to another universe where his mind was bombarded with questions one after the other. Why was Kate no longer here? Where was she? Had she freaked out at the last minute and decided to skip the wedding? Or has something happened to her? The only thing which kept him sane was the fact that Kate might be in some kind of danger and all he knew was that he had to find her. It was what his instincts were telling him and for the first time of his life, his heart was in synch with his mind. But it didn’t make him feel better. Standing up still in a daze, he ignored the noises around him and ran towards the door focusing only on what he was supposed to do. Only to be stopped by a pair of hands and he whirled round to see it was Ryce Vin Connor. His best friend. His brother. But he was in no mood for the comfort Ryce as offering. It would serve no purpose until he had Kate wi

Somebody screamed. Aidan felt his blood chill at the shrill ominous sound and his heart leapt in fear in his throat. Without thinking, his heart said only one word. Kate! Something had happened to her. Rushing upstairs to the west wing, he followed the repeated sounds being closely followed by Alex and Ryce.As he barged into the room from where the sound had come from, he nearly slumped in shock at the sight in front of him. It was Jade who had screamed. And her face was grey as she stared at something on the floor in front of her. Following the direction of her gaze, he felt his breath catch in his throat and Aidan felt sure that his face was mirroring her expression.They were both staring at a the back of a dead body which laid on the floor of the attic. The face was indiscernible as it was facing the floor with a knife stabbed in the ribs. And it was hard to make out anything as there were so much blood everywhere.Before Aidan could anticipate it, Jade fell to the ground her bod

It was already a week. A week since the day he had been supposed to become the happiest man on this planet. And now he was the complete opposite. The saddest person on earth since he had no news of his love.No phone call for ransom. No news of Kate in hospitals or even at the airport. Nobody had seen her running in her wedding dress. Nothing. It was damn frustrating and he felt helpless because there was nothing he could do.The police had concluded that Kate was on the run and they were looking for her everywhere. They had asked a photo of her to print and placed the “WANTED” logo beneath and Aidan could not help feeling how ridiculous it was.Instead of finding information about the real culprit, they were wasting their time accusing Kate as the murderer. He was losing his patience and had decided that the police was up to no use. They were too procedural in their mission and would never find Kate out.That was why he had called Ryce and Jennifer to meet him at a restaurant somewhe

Aidan felt his heart literally stop as Kate struggled against him in a state of turmoil. It looked as if she was no longer with him and was fighting something over which he had no power. But he knew if he removed his hand, she would scream the place down and he would no longer be able to confront her. Relaxing his hold against her mouth, he caressed her to soothe away whatever was taking over her mind.“Hushhhhh sweetheart, it’s me. Husssh,” he cajoled until her body ceased to tremble and she relaxed against his body. Desperately, he inhaled her scent and felt like a drug addict after he had been deprived after a week.Hell he had missed her so much. And when he had visited the convent, he had been sure that Kate had been hiding in that dark corner of the corridor. But could not confirm whether it was his imagination or she was real.That was why he had decided to stay in the neighborhood to clear his doubt. And imagine his surprise when he had spotted her hovering near a window just

“Husssh. Kate, Husssh. I’m sorry baby. So sorry for having left you alone. Please don’t cry,” Aidan was whispering desperately in her ears as he struggled to calm her down. She was in such a desperate state that suddenly anger overtook him. Whoever had brought his Kate to this sad state would pay, he vowed to himself.He called himself all kind of fools for having left her alone. She had seemed normal to him and so he had thought that it would be okay if he went to fetch some of her clothes from his apartment. But it had been a fatal mistake.It had been a good decision not to tell her about murder which had occurred back at the castle, he conceded now seeing the way her body trembled. She must be terrified from what had happened and Aidan confirmed his doubt that she must have witnessed the murder of Edward. It was the reason why he had agreed not to go back to the castle so quickly.From what he had gathered, she knew something terrible was up and they were still unaware of the real
