Ethan's POV Another day to wake up to the annoying sound of this machine beeping beside my ear. I placed one hand on my ear as though to stop the noise from coming in but even at that, I still hated being at the hospital. Selena must've gone out for a walk because I didn't see her when I woke up. I had a lot to think about but top on the list was Piper and my baby. I had to get them back to me by all means. A sharp sneeze broke out from my chest when I mulled over the times Piper spent begging me to rethink the divorce. How I threw her out like a piece of nothing. “Of all the stupid decisions you could make, Ethan Miller.” I shook my head and rolled my eyes. My fingers found the small alarm button beside my bed and as soon as I pressed it, one of the guards came rushing in. “Good morning boss, how are you feeling? Ma’am Selena stepped out a while ago, do you need me to get the doctor?” He reeled out like he was reading from a secret. My brows furrowed and my nose scrunched up i

Piper's POV “Ma’am, we're here.” The driver announced as the limousine slowly rolled to a stop in the parking lot. I sucked in my breath and closed my eyes almost immediately whilst leaning into the head rest. “Excuse me, I'll be out in a minute.” I ordered, letting my back relax into the car seat. The sound of the car being closed off gently really sealed everything for me. As I tried to steady my breathing in the car, I held my bump softly through the silk cowl neck shirt I was wearing. “Am I doing the right thing?” I thought to myself. My mind flashed back to everything that has happened in the past couple of weeks that I'd gone into hiding. The mere thought of Ethan making another attempt to hurt me or my baby sent fireworks cracking through my skin. I took five more minutes to prepare myself for what was coming before knocking slightly on the car. The driver opened the door from outside and held my hand as I slowly got out of the car. I straightened my pants and shirt, bal

Selena’s POV You must think of me as the bad guy, don't you?A thin dry smile settled on my face while i watched Ethan's breath rise and fall on the hospital bed. His body, for the first time today, wasn't moving. My fingers clicked as I stared at the reflection of the moonlight on his body. How did we even end up here? I sniffed and tried leaning back on the hospital's chair but a light creaking sound from behind forced me to jump on my feet almost immediately. My face scrunched up in disgust. How could a hospital's VIP ward be so tacky and unkempt? I glanced at the beeping machine he was connected to and for a split second, my chest rose with the overwhelming urge to pull the plug and just end his life right here. But of course, that would be a death sentence. He had the liberty of life while mine was constantly being haunted and tortured. Just as that thought crossed my mind, my phone buzzed with a notification sound. I glanced down and it was a text message from an unknown n

Piper's POV The minute I returned to my room, my knees crumbled as my body slowly slid down the locked door. “I'm so fucking stupid.” I whimpered. Tears rolled down my eyes like water from a fountain. Back there, Jace had technically admitted that he had everything planned out. His stuttered responses, his fleeting eye contacts, the look of frustration in his eyes. I was way too familiar with that look. It was the same look I saw in Ethan's eyes, the first day I found out he was cheating on me eith Selena. That broken, yet unremorseful look. I wrapped my hands tightly sround my mouth to avoid breaking out in tears but I still managed to let it slip. My chest ached like I had something heavy sitting on it and the more my hands rubbed my chest to soothe the pain, the harder it burned. How did I miss all of this from the start? How did I get fooled by Ethan only to get treated by an idiot by Jace? Tears filled my eyes as my thoughts slowly relived the moments I thought I was gr

Piper's POV How long will he take to get here? I had started pacing around the living room while my heart thumped hard in my chest. It had been twenty minutes since Lucille told me he was at the gate, yet he was nowhere to be found. “Did she say that to make me leave my room?” I wondered in my head. But I knew she wouldn't do that. It didn't help that the security men were no longer in the house. I figured they must've left because he was here. I bit my lips and cracked my knuckles nervously. I tried to think of what I'd say to him, how I’d act when I saw him. I didn't have to think for longer because the door knob soon started turning from outside. My breath hitched as I watched the door being slowly pushed in. My eyes, for a weird reason, remained glued to the door even after I saw his black, shiny Doctor Martens. My legs faltered a bit as I took a step back, still keeping my eyes on his shoes as they approached until he was standing right on the other side of the center tabl

Piper's POV It's been three days since I last heard from him. Three days since I watched him get shot during a live broadcast. The house is still being guarded to the teeth. Every corner literally breathes a hive of armed men and for weird reasons, they've managed to confine me to my bedroom. I stared at the plate of food on my bedside table and a small hiss just slipped out of my mouth. My hands folded right under my breasts as I threw my face away from it. For the past three days, Lucille has resorted to trying to force food down my throat instead of letting me out like I'd been asking. I couldn't stop thinking about him. About everything I saw on that broadcast. The trifling war between Ethan and Jace. The way both men stared at each other like they were one bullet each, away from killing each other. But nothing beats the chilling shudder that ran down my spine after I had a nightmare about Ethan. He was going to come after me…not just me but my baby too. My hands instinc
