"I tried to get rid of her but she always managed to get away but not this time, you're mine, Reece!" She shouted fixing her aim at Elle, she fired the gun.
"No!" Reece shouted but the damage was done, before she could fire another shot Joe tackled her and snatched the gun from her hand.
Elle slowly opened her eyes, she heaved a sigh of relief as she didn't feel any pain, but it was short-lived when she noticed her lover lying motionless on the ground, "Eiden!" She screamed out his name.
"Eiden!" She turned him to her, she paled when she saw blood gushing out from his shoulder, "No!" She shouted pressing her hand on the wound, "Eiden!" She called out to him, "Please... no..." Tears fell down from her eyes, "Please call an ambulance!" She shouted looking over her shoulders.
"No..." he muttered as he slowly opened his eyes, he winced in pain as
After getting back from the hospital, they met Ivana in front of the bookstore, Ivana waved at them, she then walked to Elle and handed over her bag, "here are your belongings.""Thanks," Elle smiled at her as she grabbed it. Ivana then shifted her gaze at Eiden, "Congratulations on getting discharged," She smiled at him. "thank you," he replied, "but what's that?" He asked raising his brows at her. "She just said it, didn't she? My belongings," Elle answered over her shoulder. "You're moving back?" He tilted his head to the side. "Obviously, I've only got a week, my remaining days here, I'm going to stick to you like glue," She narrowed her eyes at him, she turned her back to him and then went inside the store. A small smile formed on his lips as he looked on, Reece wrapped his arms around Ivana as they looked at him with a smile on their faces, *ahem* *ahem* Eiden snapped out of his thoughts and looked at them, "Come inside?" Eiden gestured inviting them inside. "No, we won't
The light turned on and everyone came out with the balloons on their hands, "Surprise!" They screamed.Arielle flinched clinging to Eiden's arm, she then slowly opened her eyes, "Guys?" She was surprised to see Reece, Ivana, Joe there, even Tom was there.
Eiden carried her on his back as they went home, “Eiden…” She muttered, “hmm?” He groaned, she tightened her arms around him, “I don’t want to go back,” She muttered as tears streamed down on her cheeks. He carried her to their room and gently placed her on the bed, helping her to bed, he sat on the side and stared at her, he
"No!" Arielle woke up screaming, she flinched as the lights burned her eyes, her eyes were swollen from the crying, her eyeballs hurt by the glare of the bright morning sunlight."What happened?" Her best friend opened the door perturbed. She looked at her best friend and began to sob, "again?" Her best friend closed the distance between them and pulled her into a hug. "Can't you tell me what's wrong?" She asked her rubbing her back as she sobbed in her arms. "I can't see you like this, you won't even tell me what's wrong?"The only answer she got was a whimper from her as she cried vigorously.It ha
A month later,"Wow! The book launch will be held here?" Tasha got out of the car and stared at the grand Ace hotel.
Elle sat at her table and stared at the laptop, “A romance novel, eh?” She heaved a sigh shaking her head, “What the point it was all cliche, he ate my ears complaining how bad it was.” She pouted sulkily. She opened the laptop regardless and placed her fingers on the keyboard, she closed her eyes and took a deep sigh, “Fine, let’s give it a go,” She nodded determinedly. With the start of the novel, her fingers moved in a flow, the words went in a flow, she spent her day and night in front of the laptop, 3 weeks later, her book was done, she wiped her tears as she stared at her completed manuscript. “Whoa!” Tasha yelled from behind, “What the hell have you been doing?” She blinked at the condition of the room, there were stacks of cup noodles at the side, there were tissues scattered on the floor, her best friend looked like a zombie with the dark bags under her eyes.“I’m done,” Elle hit her head on the table. “What?” Tasha cocked her head to the side, “I'm done with my new book,”
The portal disappeared along with his Elle, "She's gone..." he whispered into space, tears streamed down his eyes, "she's really gone..." He hung his head as he buried his face on his palms. He felt a sudden piercing pain in his heart, his face twisted in pain as he clutched his hand to his chest, suddenly he saw a sharp glare, his vision darkened as he dropped down on the floor, the honking of cars pierced his ears, he covered his ears, his head throbbed with pain as the noise in his ear worsened, with a sharp pain on his chest he lost his consciousness. The glare of the sun on his face made him stir from his slumber, the beeping of the machine rang in his ears, with his eyes slowly adjusting to the bright light, the white ceiling came into his view."Where?" He tried to get up but a sharp pain on the sides of his chest pushed him back into the bed. "Oww," He tried to move his hand but his hands refused to move, they felt so weak. "Are you awake?" A worried face came into his view,
"What do we have in the schedule?" Eiden asked his secretary, slipping inside the back seat of his car."The book launch," Jerry answered him as he took the driver's seat."Let's go ahead with it, then preparations have been done?" Eiden asked, "Ms. Williams looked over everything," Jerry replied with a smile. "Our Irene did the arrangements?" Eiden raised his brows, "Hmm, let's go and have a look then," Eiden leaned back against the leather seat as they drove off. As soon as they entered the gate, Eiden kept aside his laptop and pulled his suit from the hanger, getting out of the car he downed the suit and climbed the stairs, he paused for a moment, "This looks familiar," he cocked his head to the side. "Boss?" His secretary looked at him with concern, Eiden shook his head and climbed up the rest of the stairs. But the more he went in the more he found it familiar, when he entered the hall, it hit him clear, he then turned around and asked his secretary, "what did you say the name
