Love At Sea Chapter 80 – Elias Comes Home
Elias came home on a gray autumn day, the sky heavy with low clouds that seemed to reflect the weight we still carried in our chests. The car stopped slowly in the garage driveway, and my heart tightened as I watched him get out with difficulty, his shoulder still bandaged, his leg limping slightly. He was alive. That was what mattered. But the scars—both visible and invisible—were still fresh, red, and painful.Matthew and Nolah ran outside as soon as they saw him, followed by Claire, who tried to maintain her mature teenage composure, but her eyes betrayed the emotion. Zion and Luka stood beside me on the veranda, their bodies tense with relief and concern."Dad!" Matthew shouted, throwing himself into Elias’s arms carefully so as not to hurt him. Nolah, more shy but equally emotional, hugged his good leg, his little face buried in his pants.Elias, his face marked by hospital exhaust
Love At Sea Chapter 79 – The Final Trap
The underground meeting room was immersed in a silence charged with electricity. The air was cold, damp, smelling of concrete, metal, and reheated coffee. The reinforced concrete walls had no windows, only cold LED lights that cast long, harsh shadows on the faces of those present. Declan sat at the head of the long dark wood table, his fingers drumming rhythmically on the polished surface. Harvey was beside him, serious and focused. Zion, Luka, and Elias occupied the seats to my right and left, forming a natural shield around me.I stood in the center of the room, looking at the digital map projected on the opposite wall. The plan had been drawn up days ago, but now, on the eve of execution, every detail felt sharper, more dangerous."I’m going to be the bait," I said, my voice calm, icy, without a single tremor. "They think I’m the weak link. The woman who needs to be protected. The desperate mother. We’re
Love At Sea Chapter 78 – Fear and Fire
The hospital was a cold, impersonal, and cruelly indifferent place.We had arrived almost six hours ago. Elias had been in surgery ever since. The bullet had pierced his lung, causing severe internal bleeding. The doctors spoke in technical terms—pneumothorax, risk of infection, need for drainage—but for me, it all came down to one terrifying possibility: he could die.I sat in the private waiting room Declan had secured, my hands trembling in my lap, my entire body frozen despite the hospital’s heating. Matthew and Nolah slept exhausted on a nearby sofa, wrapped in blankets a compassionate nurse had brought. Claire was curled up against me, her head on my shoulder, her eyes red and swollen from crying. Zion paced back and forth like a caged animal, his black hair messy, fists clenched, muttering low curses. Luka sat on my other side, his body rigid, heterochromatic eyes fixed on the floor, as if he could fo
Love At Sea Chapter 77 – The Queen Takes Up Arms
Time stopped.Elias lay on the cold, damp ground of the clearing, his chest covered in blood, eyes half-closed, breathing weak and gurgling. Dark blood spread across the dirt floor, mixing with the wet mud from the recent rain. Zion was screaming, pressing the wound with both hands, his face twisted in a mask of pain, fury, and pure despair. Luka was desperately trying to stop the bleeding, his hands shaking as he tore more pieces of clothing to make improvised compresses, his heterochromatic eyes filled with a panic he rarely showed. Matthew and Nolah cried loudly, clinging to Claire, who tried to shield them with her own body, tears streaming down her face as she murmured words of comfort she didn’t even believe herself.I was on my knees beside Elias, holding his face with trembling hands, tears pouring down my cheeks like an uncontrollable waterfall."Elias… no… please…" My
Love At Sea Chapter 76 – Elias Falls
The silence after the storm was deceptive. The kind of silence that comes before one final cruel blow from fate.My father’s secret house was destroyed. Bodies scattered across the floor, dark blood staining the old walls, the metallic smell of gunpowder and death permeating the air. The four of us—Zion, Luka, Elias, and I—were exhausted, wounded, but alive. Matthew and Nolah trembled in my arms, their little faces pale with terror. Claire, at sixteen, tried to be strong, but her hands shook as she held the gun Elias had given her during the shootout."Let’s get out of here," Elias said, his voice hoarse but firm. He was limping slightly from the wound in his thigh, but he still moved like a predator. "Luka, check the perimeter. Zion, carry the boys. Maeve, stay in the middle."We moved as one unit. Zion carried Matthew in one arm and Nolah in the other. I held Claire’s hand
Love At Sea Chapter 75 – The Last Threat
The night was too calm. Dangerously calm.It was one of those rare moments when the house seemed to breathe in peace, as if the universe had finally decided to give us a break. Matthew and Nolah were sleeping soundly in the boy’s room, exhausted after a full day playing in the backyard—running, playing soccer, climbing low trees, and laughing until sunset. Claire, with her sixteen years full of protective energy, had stayed over to sleep, curled up in the bed beside them with a book open on her lap. She still had the habit of reading to the boys until they fell asleep, especially after the traumatic rescue. The sixteen-year-old girl had become a fierce, almost maternal guardian to Matthew and Nolah.I was on the back veranda with the three of them, wrapped in a thick blanket, a hot cup of chamomile tea in my hands. The night air was cool, carrying the scent of wet grass and pine trees. Zion had me on his lap, his
