Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover Chapter 133: Princess's Wrath
DAMIEN'S POVThe sterile hum of the machines was a constant, cruel reminder. I pressed my forehead against the cool glass of the observation room, my eyes fixed on Adrian. My throat was raw, my chest a hollow ache that wouldn't ease. Tears kept falling, hot and heavy, blurring my vision but never enough to make Adrian’s image disappear. He was lying there, so still, so small in that vast bed in the private Intensive Care Unit. Guilt was a living thing, clawing at my insides, tearing me apart with every shallow rise and fall of his chest. It was all my fault. Every single bandage, every single tube snaking into his pale skin, every weak flicker of the life support machine – it was all because of me.If only I had chosen him. If only I had picked Adrian over the empty shell of my public image, he wouldn't be here. My heart felt like it was breaking all over again, splintering into a million tiny pieces as I watched him. His beautiful face was hidden beneath white bandages, his strong h
Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover Chapter 132: He who doesn't know God
ADRIAN'S POVI was alone again. Back on the muddy riverbank, the sound of the water is still murmuring. But this time, it was different. This time, I heard something else. Crying. A raw, desperate sound that ripped through the quiet. It was a man’s voice. Damien’s voice.“No! I can’t! He needs me! Let me go!”The sound was closer now, frantic, desperate. I tried to make sense of it, but my mind felt fuzzy, like static on a TV screen. I could feel a dull ache in my chest again, a real one this time, not just the ghost of emotional pain. My eyelids felt heavy, but a sudden jolt, a flash of red and the smell of gasoline in the air, forced them open.My vision was blurry, but I could make out shapes. Uniforms. Flashing blue and red lights. And there, in the distance, struggling against the grip of a policeman, was Damien. His face was streaked with tears, his hair dishevelled, his eyes wild with terror. Our gazes are locked. For a split second, the world clarified. It was him. He was real
Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover Chapter 131: Glimpse of the End
ADRIAN'S POV The world had gone quiet. Not a gentle, peaceful quiet, but a sudden, jarring silence that felt wrong, unnatural. One moment, there was the screech of tires, the horrifying crunch of metal, a blast of heat, and the terrible feeling of my body being thrown around like a rag doll. The next, nothing. The blare of ambulance sirens, so close I could almost feel the vibration in my bones, simply… stopped. Gone. The sharp, metallic tang of blood, the acrid bite of smoke, the heavy stench of gasoline – all of it faded, like a bad dream dissolving with the morning light. My body, which had been screaming just moments before, now felt like a stranger’s, numb and distant. I knew I was bruised, I knew I was battered. I remembered feeling trapped, pinned down, something sharp and cold impaling me. But now, even that memory felt dull, like looking at an old photograph. No pain. Just... nothing.Then, the nothingness gave way to something else. A place. It was empty, yet somehow full.
Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover Chapter 130: My Boyfriend
DAMIEN'S POVThe world tilted. My knees, usually steady and reliable, betrayed me completely. They gave out from under me, and I hit the polished marble floor of the Grand Ballroom with a dull, sickening thud. The sound was loud, a crude interruption to the soft murmur of the Gala, but I barely registered it. My entire body felt numb, heavy, as if filled with lead. All I could focus on were the moving images on the massive screen at the front of the room, usually reserved for charity appeals and corporate sponsorships. Tonight, it showed a news report, stark and terrifying: "Tragic Accident on 13th Street."My eyes were locked on the screen, seeing without truly understanding, a blur of flashing lights and twisted metal. It was a nightmare playing out in slow motion, yet too fast for my mind to grasp.A shadow fell over me. A soft, worried gasp, perfectly pitched to draw attention without being too dramatic. "Damien? My God, darling, what’s wrong?"Vivienne. Of course. Her voice, us
Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover Chapter 129: All an Act
DAMIEN'S POV The air in the Grand Ballroom was thick with the scent of expensive perfume, aged champagne, and the low hum of a hundred conversations. The smile on my face felt like a mask, stretched too thin, threatening to crack with every polite nod and brief, empty chat. “Lovely evening, isn’t it?” I’d say, or “A delightful crowd tonight,” as Vivienne coiled against my arm like a sleek, possessive snake. Her fingers, long and cool, dug lightly into my bicep, a constant, unwelcome pressure. Every fiber of my being screamed for space, for air, for anything but this suffocating proximity.“Darling, you’re practically ignoring Mrs. Henderson,” Vivienne purred, her lips brushing my ear as we navigated the opulent ballroom. Her perfume, heavy and sweet, made my head spin, not with desire, but with a growing sense of dread.I forced a wider, more convincing smile for the elderly woman. “My apologies, Mrs. Henderson. Vivienne just gets so caught up in the moment, doesn’t she?” I said, my
Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover Chapter 128: Lights, Horns, and Blood
TRISTAN'S POV The cold night air hit me like a slap as I stumbled out of the hotel. The grand, bright hall of the Annual Mayor's Gala was now behind me, a place of glitter and pain. All I wanted was to get away. My feet moved on their own, rushing me through the quiet hotel driveway and into the vast, empty parking lot. Each step felt heavy, like I was dragging chains.My hand fumbled in my pocket for the car keys. I pulled them out, my fingers trembling as I pressed the button. A soft chirp echoed in the vast space, then another, and the bright flash of headlights showed me where the car was parked, just a few rows away. Damien’s car. Our car, I had foolishly thought.I reached it quickly, pulling the handle and practically falling into the driver’s seat. The leather felt cold against my skin. I slammed the door shut, cutting off the vast emptiness around me, though it did little to quiet the storm inside. I slumped, my head dropping forward until my forehead pressed against the coo
