At the hospital,Janet, with her hand bandaged, lay on the hospital bed in a gown, watching Keith, who was furious and breathlessly ranting about the waitress.“Bitch!” he gritted out.“What’s wrong with you? You’re so mad, as if she deliberately tried to take my life!” Janet rolled her eyes. “Come on, Keith!”“That girl is a dumbass! I told her to leave the place, but she had to stay and jump into the crossfire.” Keith clenched his jaw. He could feel the muscles in his face tighten. “It was because of her that you got shot!”“Humanity is scarce these days! That girl jumped in solely to help the man. She is brave and compassionate.” Janet raised her eyebrows.Keith rolled his eyes. “Let’s not talk about her!”Janet looked at him briefly. “What the fuck is wrong with you? Natalie has completely fucked up your brain! Have you lost the ability to see the good in people?”“All women are the same!” he sneered.“Great!” Janet rolled her eyes. “You date the wrong women and we’re to blame!” S
The sound of gunfire echoed through the air as Stefan took out Marco’s accomplice. Stefan’s rampage turned the deserted road behind the nightclub into a grim crime scene as he mercilessly took them down one by one.Cara, a young waitress from the nightclub, stepped out through the back exit to dump garbage bags but froze in the dark alley, her senses heightened by the sharp sound of gunshots.As she heard a loud cry from a man, goosebumps covered her skin. Taking a step forward, she quietly leaned against the wall and witnessed a brutal scene: three men ruthlessly attacking a weak man.“Keith! I should inform Keith.” She cautiously stepped back and hurried inside through the back door.Bruno, the gang leader, tried to escape from his hiding spot when, out of nowhere, a giant tattooed hand seized him. Sebastian’s hand wrapped around his neck, squeezing him before ruthlessly slamming him onto the hard pavement.“Where do you think you’re going? We need to settle the score!” With a fierc
As evening fell, Janet arrived at the police headquarters and greeted her fellow officers on her way to her office. When she turned the knob and stepped inside, a delightful scent of white lilies filled the air.Her eyes were fixed on the large bouquet of her favorite white lilies sitting on her desk. The first thing she saw was the bright blooms contrasting with the dull background of her office.Squinting as she entered, she couldn’t help but wonder who had sent her favorite flowers. As she passed her office desk, she couldn’t shake the thought of the masked man from her mind. Her hand involuntarily reached for the note tucked in the bouquet, and she leaned back in her chair before unfolding it.Dear Officer Janet,You’re such a courageous police officer. I am writing these words with great pride and admiration for your exceptional work. Your steadfast commitment to protecting lives and keeping our community safe is truly heroic.Thank you for being the beacon of hope and silent gua
Janet, still feeling her head buzzing from earlier, entered the kitchen, drank some water, and set the glass on the counter. She let out another yawn and started to climb the stairs with her eyes half-closed. Suddenly, a flash of realization hit her, causing her to stop abruptly.Her attention briefly shifted as her eyes glanced at the picture hanging on the wall to her right. It was a family photo of her, Isabella, Sophia, and her father, John.She slowly looked around her empty house on the outskirts of the city, taking in the stillness in the air. In a rush, she hurried down the stairs, feeling the cool breeze on her face as she left the house.Confused, she stood outside her house, inspecting it with a furrowed brow. She glanced down at her denim shorts and white crop top, then noticed the carefully tended burn mark on her hand.Memories of the previous night flooded her mind as she touched her face, and a wave of terror washed over her. Her throat tightened as she remembered the
With his hand propping up his head in a thoughtful pose, Sebastian kept his steady gaze on Janet, who was comfortably curled up on the bed, sleeping.His other hand gently stroked her head, following the delicate curve of her eyebrows and tenderly cupping her cheek. The sight of her hand, marked with several faint cuts and bruises, was unsettling to him.“I searched everywhere for you, Amorina,” He whispered, softly kissing her cheek. A tear silently rolled down his face, and he did not attempt to brush it away. He couldn’t pull himself away from her, his black eyes filled with longing as he kept looking at her, pouring every ounce of his heart into the intensity of his stare.He reached out his hand, wrapped it around her waist, and pulled her close, snuggling up against her.“I am sorry,” he gently whispered and planted a soft kiss on her temple. “I never wanted to hurt you. I don’t know why our fate was inscribed this way. You can’t even begin to understand the lengths I’ve gone to
A man in a werewolf mask stood directly in front of her car, his arms crossed over his well-defined chest, and her eyes couldn’t help but be drawn to him. Janet’s jaws clenched, anger flashing through her intense gaze.She muttered a curse under her breath, quickly grabbing her gun before stepping out of the car. “What on earth are you doing? Who are you?” she called out, her voice echoing loudly, but he remained calm and unmoved, unaffected by her loud words.She moved closer to him, furrowing her brows as she tried to remember any past interactions. As her gaze settled on him, she noticed his rugged charm and disheveled hair. He was donning black pants and a white shirt, and she couldn’t help but notice the bloodstains on his shirt, likely a souvenir from his time at Billy’s place. With three buttons undone, the tattoos on his chest peeked out, adding an air of intrigue. His shirt sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, and Janet noticed the ink on his wrist, which stretched upward
