LOGIN[Zevyn]"Answer me, Zevyn! How could you do this to me?" Alma shouted.I shook my head again, my lips parting, but every word I wanted to say died in my throat. I couldn't seem to force a single one out. My gaze darted from her face to the steep drop behind her, to the jagged rocks far below that threatened to end my world if she took even one more step backward."Alma..." Her name left my lips, but she only shook her head, tears spilling down her cheeks."I trusted you."The words struck harder than any punch I'd ever taken. She clutched her stomach with both hands, her fingers pressing against the fabric of her clothes. Blood stained everything. Her clothes, her hands...And mine.My fucking hands.I stared down at them, horror twisting through my chest as the truth settled over me. I'd done this. I'd caused it. Whatever happened next would be my fault, too."Please." The word slipped from my lips as I looked back at her, shaking my head repeatedly. My hands stretched toward her, de
[Zevyn]My hand curled tightly beside me as I stared at the sight before me.Alma was lying right there, motionless beneath the white hospital sheets, a thick bandage wrapped around her head. The machines beside her beeped steadily, their sounds cutting through the room's silence. A line ran from her hand, another tube extended toward her nose, and an IV drip hung beside the bed, its contents slowly making their way through the tubing.I couldn't fucking move.I stood there, staring at her for what felt like an eternity, trying to get a grip on the way my heart was hammering against my chest. Every beat seemed louder than the last, filling my ears until it was almost impossible to focus on anything else. I swallowed hard, but the tightness in my throat remained.She looked so different lying there.I'd seen Alma angry, stubborn, hurt, and defiant. I'd watched her look at me with those eyes. But seeing her like this, with her eyes closed and her body surrounded by machines, was somethi
[Zevyn]"I'm trying to understand something," Sebastian snapped, his voice sharp enough to cut through the silence. "I'm trying to understand why someone would deliberately pull the trigger on another person and then rush to hold that same person in his hands like he had no fucking idea what happened."My fingers curled around the phone in my hand."You put her in that hospital, Zevyn!" he continued, his voice rising. "You put her in that position, and now you're standing here acting relieved because the surgery was successful?"I swallowed.For a moment, I wanted to tell him to shut the fuck up. I wanted to call his words trash, to remind him that I hadn't wanted any of this to happen, that I'd never intended for Alma to end up lying unconscious in a hospital bed with her forehead split open.But the words wouldn't come.I tucked my injured hand into my pocket, my fingers searching for the car key until they found it. I curled them around the small piece of metal, holding it tightly
[Zevyn]I reached into my pocket and pulled out the phone, my fingers tightening around it as the ringtone continued to echo through the basement.I glanced at the screen.The moment I saw the caller ID, my heart slammed even harder against my chestThe doctor.My heart slammed against my chest, then skipped a beat, something that fucking barely happened to me. I stared at the number, my thumb frozen against the side of the phone, and for a second, I couldn't even remember what I'd been about to do. The screen was right there in front of me, the doctor's number glowing back at me, but I couldn't bring myself to answer.Because what if something had gone wrong?Fuck.My grip tightened around the phone until my fingers started to hurt. I'd spent the last few minutes trying to convince myself that leaving the hospital had been the right decision, that I couldn't stand there staring at the emergency light above the operating room. At the same time, my mind tore itself apart imagining wha
[Zevyn]"It was that bastard's fault." I snapped, staring at Dominic."No, it was your fucking fault!" Dominic snapped, stepping into my personal space. His eyes blazed with anger, his jaw clenched so tightly that I could see the muscles twitch beneath his skin. "It was your fault, Zevyn. You deliberately lured that woman out there. She came rushing to you because she thought you were hurt, and you sent someone to fucking kill her?"My fist moved before I could stop it. Bang.My knuckles connected with Dominic's face, the impact sharp enough to send his head snapping to the side."I didn't fucking want to kill her!" I roared, taking a step toward him. "Shut the fuck up!"Dominic stumbled back a step, his hand immediately going to his face. For a split second, I thought he might actually walk away, but before I could draw another breath, his fist came flying toward me.The punch caught me across the face.My head jerked sideways, and I barely had time to steady myself before he struck
[Zevyn]"I didn't tell him to leave her almost half fucking dead," I snapped at Sebastian.My voice came out harsher than I'd intended, but I didn't give a damn. I took a step toward him, my injured hand curling beside my thigh. "And what the hell were you expecting when you told him to fucking slam into any car she came there in?""I didn't even know she'd fucking drive there!" I snapped, my voice cracking under the weight of my frustration. "Fuck, this is messed up. I thought she'd be in an Uber. I thought she'd be sitting in the back seat. I just wanted her to lose consciousness long enough for the media to capture what they needed to capture. I didn't fucking...""That is not an excuse!" Sebastian cut in sharply. "It is not a fucking excuse, Zevyn. You told that young man what to do. You gave him her picture and instructed him to make sure she was inside the car so he wouldn't attack someone else. Those were your fucking instructions!""I didn't know it would get this bad.""You'
[Alma]"Be there in an hour." That was all I heard before the line went dead. My heart thumped so loudly in my chest, I'm sure the cab driver could hear it.My hand trembled as I gripped my phone like a lifeline, my eyes fixed directly on the screen.If he said he'll send an address, then he will..
[Alma]Wrong.Wrong.Wrong.The words echoed in my head relentlessly as I knelt there—shameless—staring up at a stranger’s cock like I wasn’t fucking married.I should leave.Stand up and run as far as I could.This was wrong.I can’t be doing this—But my body wouldn’t listen.It felt like my mind
[Zevyn]A damn bold one. Captivating green eyes.That was the first thought that cut through me the moment she grabbed my shirt and crashed her lips onto mine.And then those curves—locked into a red dress that shouldn’t have looked that dangerous on her.I am a man people learned not to breathe to
[Alma]The moment my lips touched his, everything in me went still.His lips were warm against mine, and for a moment my mind simply… stopped working.My fingers tightened on his shirt like it was the only thing keeping me grounded, my lips moving slowly over his as if I was trying to understand wh
