Eren

Every single step she took further away from me was like knives piercing into my soul.

I could barely breathe.

I just stood there ,watching as she ran while the rain poured.

How did things come to this?

One moment I was in her embrace,seeking comfort for my shattered soul ,the next moment she's gone.

Fuck, Linnet.

What have I done?

I bent forward ,bracing myself with my hands on my knees as I gasped for breath. The pain in my chest was so unbearable, I don't know if it was from the fact that I found out too late that my mother was alive or that I just lost the one woman I loved, probably both.

My hands trembled as I looked up,staring straight ahead at her silhouette that felt like she was a thousand miles away.

The next second, I bolted. My boots were splashing water in all directions as I ran after her.

I can't lose her.

I need her now more than ever. I already broke my oath for her, I’m not letting that go to waste.

She had already slowed down,her hands wrapped aro

    ErenI'm okay,I should be. Forty five minutes ago ,I was under the rain . Unable to move my feet as Elizabeth disappeared into the streets. I don't know where she went and I couldn't muster the strength to follow her after she said those words.Women come and go;that's what I kept muttering to myself Even if I was the one that fucked up,she still choose to leave without hearing me out. I should be fine after a few hours. It's nothing serious.Fuck ! Who am I kidding.I was on the fourth bottle since I came back to the house. The first thing that hit me as I entered the building was her absence. It weighed down in me like gravity. I had to resort to alcohol or all probably lose my mind. It's not even up to an hour and I already spiraled so hard I might completely breakdown. I gulped the last bottle down and collapsed on the couch. This was bound to happen anyway. Why did I think I could keep Linnet a secret. I should have told her from the start.Hell, I shouldn't have gotten at

  • Loyalty and Ashes    Chapter 72

    Elizabeth The house was too quiet.I sat with my legs stretched out on the sofa, my fingers tangled in the sleeve of Eren’s hoodie, the only thing of his I had left that still smelled like him. He had a few clothes in the bedroom but they smelled like soap because I had done the laundry and left just this one out. The television was on but I was barely paying attention to it. I pressed the hoodie to my face, inhaling like I could pull him out of thin air and back into my arms. He had been gone for a week. No calls. No texts. I was forced to do a little research about the mafia because I was curious to know what kind of work he was doing that would take a whole damn week.I told myself not to panic at what I saw. He was probably working on this Madison and Felix issue. He was trying to find a way to get rid of those people so that I could finally go out without having to worry about being kidnapped. Still, I missed him.God, I missed him so bad.I stared at the door, like some

  • Loyalty and Ashes    Chapter 71

    Eren The docks were covered in mists,this place looked like a graveyard for mermaids.The water reeked of salt, smoke and dead bodies. There were no boats in the river, the docks had been closed down since the flood few years ago but Raves found this place and used it as a quite and Safe means to transport humans and do their black market trade. We moved in silence. The police were in dark uniforms, Orion taking the lead. He was better suited to be a cop, not some mafia puppet,just like the rest of us. And my men, ruthless and faceless behind black masks. It was the kind of alliance born out of desperation, not trust. The deal had been sealed an hour ago, an agreement between the county and devil's pawns. The police didn’t have the manpower, and I had men who could kill silently and disappear like they never existed. But in exchange, they’d keep their mouths shut. No arrests. No names. No interference in whatever shit we mafia do as long as we don't disturb the country's peace.

    Eren The air radiated with tension. The atmosphere was so tight that it seemed all the oxygen had disappeared. “I've been keeping an eye on you, Eren. Is this what you do in your free time?” He picked up a particular photo and tossed it over to me. “Linnet doesn't know about this yet. She might suspect, but she has no proof as to what you're doing.” I gritted my teeth. “Not only did you break your oath, but you plan on hurting my daughter and destroying my empire?” I closed my eyes. Since he already found out, there was no need trying to mask anything. “Your daughter had been hurting the day you tied her to a marriage of convenience. And I don’t want to be in that situation either.” Aslan took a slow, menacing step forward. “You speak of convenience like this is a negotiation, like your feelings ever mattered. This isn't some romance novel, Eren. This is La Famiglia. We bleed for rules, we live by oath.” “I never agreed to that marriage neither did she.” I shot back, voice t

    Eren “ Don't step on it….turn first.” I grabbed the wheel just before we ran into a water hydrant.It was the fifth time I had saved us from crashing into something today. Elizabeth was sitting on my lap as I taught her how to drive.She's a slow and bad learner.“ You said to step on it as I turn.” She gripped the wheel and fixed her gaze on the empty street.I nearly did the face palm.“ I should just hire a driver.” She pouted.“It takes time to learn how to drive, you know.” “ I don't think you ever will. You have short legs,they can't even reach the brakes.” I grabbed the wheel again just as she almost hit a street light. “I just need to master this stupid steering wheel, the brakes can come later.” She grumbled, slapping my hands off the wheel.I hit the brakes and the car came to a halt.“That’s enough lesson for today, we're going home.” She pouted.“ It wasn't even up to an hour.” I kissed her neck, intertwining her fingers in mine. The ring I gave her was on her finger and
