FAZER LOGINMaya's POVI stirred slightly before slowly opening my heavy, exhausted eyes.The bright rays of the morning sun streamed through the curtains, flashing directly across my face. I immediately squeezed my eyes shut, then opened them again, blinking several times as I tried to adjust to the light.For a moment, I simply lay there, staring blankly at the ceiling.Then I tried to sit up.Pain shot through my entire body.I winced and immediately sank back into the mattress.Every muscle ached. My legs felt weak, and even the smallest movement sent a dull throb through my body.Jeez.Ethan was a monster in bed.My cheeks heated instantly as memories of last night came rushing back like a flood.I bit my lower lip, trying desperately to suppress the smile threatening to spread across my face.Despite the soreness, despite the weakness in my body...I still wanted him.I didn't think I could ever get enough of that man.My face grew even hotter.He was mine.That handsome, infuriating, incre
Ethan's POVThe door opened slightly and Maya strode in.“How did you like the room?” she asked, avoiding my eyes.I smiled and stood up. “You did this?”“Yes, though Henry and the workers assisted me,” she said.“I love it. Thank you, Maya,” I said.She smiled, this time catching my stare. I stepped closer, pulling her flush against my body with my hands resting firmly on her waist.“Thank you for opening my eyes. Thank you for not giving up on me. I love you so much,” I said.She smiled softly. “I found happiness too. Thank you. I love you too,” she muttered.I placed a kiss on her lips, then let her go and walked back to sit on the edge of the bed. A wild smirk spread across my face.“How about you entertain me? Let’s see what you’re capable of.”“What?” She laughed, blushing hard.“Yes, I want to see what my girlfriend can do. I’m waiting,” I said, watching her closely.She bit her bottom lip—that alone was driving me insane, but I kept my composure.She turned around, her eyes se
Ethan’s POVA week had passed, and today was finally the day I was being discharged.Maya had barely left my side throughout the entire week. She had been there every morning when I opened my eyes and every night before I fell asleep. Even when I insisted I was fine, she refused to listen.I was beginning to think I was the luckiest man alive.After changing into the clothes Maya had brought for me, we made our way out of the hospital. Josh was waiting beside my car, and he opened the door for us before helping me settle inside.The moment we pulled away, I stared out the window.News of my awakening had flooded the internet.Apparently, I had become some kind of miracle—the man who had survived what should have been countless deaths.I almost laughed.Marcus had really managed to make everyone love me.I shook my head.I still couldn't believe he was gone so easily.After everything he'd done, he'd gotten exactly what he deserved. Even his funeral had been almost empty. No one had da
Maya's POV A month had passed. And Ethan still hadn't woken up. Sometimes, I wondered if he was refusing to wake up. Maybe he was stubborn enough to sleep through everything just to annoy us. Didn't he realize we were all waiting for him? So much had changed while he slept. Doris and several directors were already in prison. Doris had been sentenced to twenty years after the case surrounding Melissa's death was reopened, along with the evidence connecting her to the forced prostitution of children and her partnership with Marcus. And also the fire in Midnight Club, which killed Madam Linder. I can't believe Doris would kill that woman. Then the truth about Ash broke. Marcus and several directors had been involved in distributing the drug, a substance that had already left countless people addicted, unstable, and desperate. Everything had fallen apart around them. The media tore them apart. New witnesses came forward. More victims spoke. More deaths co
Maya's POVI held his hand as they wheeled him toward the ICU, where they told us we had to wait outside.The moment those doors swallowed him, I felt like I was losing my mind.My whole world was crumbling right in front of my eyes.This wasn't how we planned it.This wasn't supposed to happen.This wasn't part of the plan.Josh and Tony held onto me, but they were breaking too. I could feel it in the way their hands trembled, in the way their voices cracked whenever they tried to reassure me.I couldn't lose him.Not him.I'd already lost everyone I'd ever loved.I couldn't lose Ethan too.Please don't take him away from me.Please.My knees finally gave out, and I fell to the floor.My clothes were soaked in his blood. His blood. The sight of it made my stomach twist, but I couldn't bring myself to change. I couldn't even bring myself to look away.Tony immediately dropped beside me and wrapped his arms tightly around my body.I just cried.My chest pounded violently against my rib
Maya POV Marcus was already going crazy.“What have you done?!!!” Marcus roared.Ethan's smile widened.“Careful there, uncle.”He looked around the room.“Everyone is watching.”Josh took back the USB and walked toward us.“They are here, sir,” he muttered.Marcus trembled.“W-who is here?”Before anyone could answer, the doors suddenly burst open.For a moment, nobody moved.Then came the sound of heavy footsteps.One after another, several police officers stormed into the room, their shoes striking against the floor as they spread out and surrounded the people inside. The atmosphere instantly changed. The shock on everyone's faces was almost impossible to describe.Gasps filled the room.Some of the directors stepped backward in fear, while others looked at each other, clearly trying to understand what was happening.At the front of the officers stood Detective Brian.His eyes immediately landed on Marcus.He didn't hesitate.He walked straight toward him, pulling a pair of handcu
Ethan POVThe sound was so loud it forced me to raise my head.I glanced behind me for a second before turning back to my computer, ignoring whatever chaos was happening in the house—and ignoring the endless calls from Mr. Wellington.Instead, I scrolled lazily through an endless feed of hot girls.
Day 1,Maya POVThe noise was too much.I woke up with a banging headache, groaning as I forced my eyes open.“Arrggh… what is that?” I muttered.My gaze slowly moved to the clock standing opposite the bed.9:17 AM.What?I slept till the next day?I guess I was really that tired.I tried getting o
Maya POVI stood in front of the full-length mirror as a team of stylists pinned jewels into my hair and tightened the corset of my gown. The silk was heavy, and the diamonds were blinding.My reflection stared back at me, expressionless.The only image in my mind was Andre lying on that hospital b
Maya POV“Ms. Rivers, there’s nothing more we can do without a full payment. He’s hanging by a thread. If you really want to save him, you have to do what’s necessary.” Doctor Harry said.I swallowed hard, the salt from my tears stinging my lips. “Please, Doctor. I’m working three jobs.
