Killian

Her tear-stained face glued to the back of my mind, the guilt that washed over me was heavier than an anchor.

I could have done something about this but I didn't. I didn't want to tell her that I was actually working on it, but she had chained me to our bedroom so I couldn't continue the process. By the time she uncuffed me, I had had too many missed calls and messages from my agent, and unfortunately, it was too late.

I don't want to tell her this, or she'll beat herself up, so I just stood there as she yelled and cried before she was taken away.

This doesn't mean it's over, I'm going to request bail, and if it's approved, then I'm getting her out, and then I'll handle Viktor myself.

The court had been dismissed so I exited the building with Scarlett walking behind me. I came across Viktor talking to an elderly man in the hallway. An elderly man I recognised to be Jonathan Lott, the owner of Lotts Mobile.

Our eyes met for a brief moment and I made sure to pass the inform

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    054. Run With Me

    Raven Every step I took down the aisle was terrifying. My fingers were trembling around the bouquet. People were staring at me, some with loving eyes and some with nonchalance. I don't know any of these people. This was not how I had imagined my wedding to be. In a crowd of unfamiliar people and marrying a man I barely know.Am I being stupid?Probably yes because there's only one explanation for why my heart is pounding like crazy as I walk down the aisle towards him.I'm scared.Deep down…I feel like I'm making a mistake. I don't have to marry him and I'm even more scared and worried since he handed over the evidence to the cops. He had told me the cops were on standby for Killian. The moment he shows his face at my wedding, they'll arrest him, and he'll finally pay for all the things he did to me. Now I feel like this wedding was the trap to lure Killian out. I should be happy, right? So why am I not?Why does it feel like I'm missing something, like I'm walking straight into

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    053. A Wedding Card And A Death Wish

    Killain It's all happening again, my mistakes, I've hurt her all over again. I never do anything right , the only thing I'm good at is opening people up and stitching them back up. Nothing ever works and I'm tired. I hate this …I fucking hate that I always make the wrong decisions whenever it comes to people that I care about and now it's happening all over again. I'm better now … in fact, I'm supposed to be discharged tomorrow, but I'm leaving this place now. Alex had been coming over, still trying to help me out but my nervous system had shut down. She already found out about everything, both the ones that are true and the ones that are not. I'm just too weak emotionally to do anything else. I'm in a hospital bed, curling the IV tube between my fingers. It's empty and removed from my wrist….The only thing keeping me here is this last pint of blood. “ Are you sure you don't want to do anything about this whole thing?" He asked for the tenth time now and my answer remained th

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    052. Wishing it was you

    Raven I took slow steps into the room and towards Killian. I kept my face neutral and from where I stood, I could see the conflict in his eyes. “Raven….I…” He started and I raised a finger, shutting him up. I dropped the CT scan results on the table roughly, crossing my hands over my chest.“ Explain to me why you had me undergo an MRI Scan without my permission?” The room turned silent as we both stared at each other for a brief second. His eyes fell to the brown envelope; his chest rose and fell erratically. " Raven….its…"His Adam's apple bopped up and down. “Oh wait….”I circled the table, tracing my fingers around the edges.“ I know everything now… there's no need to try to deceive me anymore.” “ I'm not deceiving you…I never did.”He attempted to stand but winced and sat back down.“ Whatever thing Nero has been feeding you with, I swear it's not true.” I chuckled.“ So you've been aware this whole time that I was with him?” “ Raven….” I yelled, my anger slipping out

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    051. Betrayal In White Coat

    Raven I'm waiting at the laboratory, tapping my fingers on the receptionist desk as the clerk goes through my hospital files. Nero had dropped me off at St. Nova Hospital a few minutes ago. I'm angry, I'm angry because I trusted Killian. Even up till now, he still hadn't found a way to contact me; he probably didn't know I've been bailed out. He just abandoned me….he's probably in his house or somewhere in this hospital chilling around with Scarlett. After all the promises he made to me…after all the words he sputtered from his mouth about helping me. He lied to me, then abandoned me in prison. He didn't even come to check up on me,not even once. If Nero hadn't stepped in, I would still be behind bars to this day. Killian would have left me there to rot while he fucks around with Scarlett. They're better off together anyway. I bite down on my lips , the mere image of them together sent bitterness down my throat. It's more infuriating because I thought we were connecting. We

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    050. The body

    Killian Scarlett is tapping her feet on the floor, staring at me with a frown on her face and a glare. Her fists clenched on her thighs with Alex sitting beside her and sipping on a pumpkin-spiced latte. I just woke up and was told I had been out the entire day. I feel a bit better though. I still feel weak but I can sit upright. The nurse was changing the bandage on my wounds and administering medications to me. The room was quiet with only the sound of the ECG monitor beeping and tense glares coming from Scarlett. The nurse finished and then left, I put myself in a comfortable sitting position so I won't reopen the wound again. I kept my mouth shut. If anything, I don't want Scarlett knowing any of what's happening, but with the way she's talking, she's not leaving this room if I don't tell her about that fucking body. Alex was sipping, the slurping sound growing loud and annoying. Scarlett whipped her head towards him, a low growl escaping her lips and he stopped. “Are

    RavenThose dreams I had weren't fake or a make-up. Those déjà vu I had weren't just my illusion. They were real, I understand now. They had always been real but why didn't I remember any of it?Killian helps me back to the bed after I stop shaking. “ We don't have to continue watching if you can't handle it yet.” I shake my head, I've been in the dark for too long. I don't want to end up thinking and imagining what the hell is going on. I want to face it head-on." No” I say, my lips forming a thin line as I brace myself.“ Let's get this over with." He pulls me closer.“ Before we proceed, I want you to know that I'm here for you and that you're not in this alone." My heart warms up as I nod, wiping the tear that had formed in my eyes.He clicks the play button and the video continues with him hitting me with the bat.
