Ruin Me, Brother 51
Celeste“Listen, girl,” Elewon said softly. “I want you to take a deep breath. Can you do that for me? Just breathe. In and out. Slowly. Come on, honey. Breathe with me.”I tried. I really tried. She counted with me. In. Out. In. Out. Slowly, the crying became quieter. I could breathe again. My hands stopped shaking so much.“Good,” Elewon said. “That’s good. Now tell me what happened. Take your time.”So I told her everything. About Aria shooting me. About Jace staying with me in the hospital. About how I thought he cared. About how he chose her. About how he called me a liar. About how he blamed me for Aria being sick.I told her about my heart breaking into a million pieces.“Where are you right now?” Elewon asked when I finished.“At the hospital.”“Send me the address. I’m coming right now. Don’t move. I’ll be there soon.”I ended the call and sent her the hospital details. Then I lay back on the bed and stared at the ceiling. I felt empty, and hollow. Like everything inside me h
Ruin Me, Brother 50
CelesteMy heart cracked. Actually cracked. I could feel it breaking inside my chest.“Are you saying I lost my brain?” I asked. Tears filled my eyes, but I blinked them back. “Are you saying I’m crazy? That I don’t know what happened to my own body?”“I didn’t say that—”“You did!” I shouted. Pain shot through my wounds, but I didn’t care. “You just did! You’re calling me a liar!”All this time, I thought he was here because he cared about me. I thought the way he held my hand and stayed by my side meant something. I thought maybe, just maybe, he felt the same way I did.But I was wrong. So wrong.He was only here because he felt guilty. Because his precious Aria hurt me, and he couldn’t accept it.When Aria shot me, I had regrets. So many regrets. My biggest one was never telling Jace how I felt. As I lay there bleeding, I thought about all the moments I wasted. All the times I wanted to tell him I loved him but stayed quiet. I thought those feelings would die with me.When I woke u
Ruin Me, Brother 49
CelesteI slowly opened my eyes. Everything was white and blurry. At first, I thought I was in heaven. Maybe I had died. Maybe the pain was finally over.But then I heard a voice.“Can you hear me?”The voice was shaking with worry. I recognized that voice.“Celeste.”My head turned slowly toward the sound. It hurt to move. Everything hurt. When my eyes focused, I saw him. Jace. His face looked tired, like he hadn’t slept in days.Why was he here? Where am I?He took my hand in his. His touch was warm. “Are you okay?”I wanted to answer him. I wanted to say something. But when I opened my mouth, sharp pain shot through my body. I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t even breathe properly.“I will go get the doctor,” Jace said. He squeezed my hand once before running out of the room.I lay there alone, staring at the white ceiling. Memories came flooding back. Aria. Her face. The gun. The way she looked at me with so much hate. She wanted me dead. But why? What did I do to her? What was so wrong
Ruin Me, Brother 48
Jace“LIAR!” My hands curled into fists. “Celeste could barely stand! She was sick! How could she attack you?!”“I’m telling the truth!” Tears streamed down Aria’s face. “She wanted to kill me. I only defended myself.”I stared at her, searching her face for any sign of deception, but her hands were shaking, and her eyes were red and swollen.Her entire body began to shake uncontrollably, and her eyes rolled back.“Aria—”She collapsed.“Nurse!” I caught her before she hit the ground. “I need help!”Two nurses rushed over with a stretcher. They lifted Aria and wheeled her away.“What’s wrong with her?” I demanded.“Looks like shock, sir. We’ll take care of her.”I stood right in front of Aria’s room, watching through the glass as the doctor attended to her. What kind of mess was this? Celeste first, and now Aria.I dragged a hand through my hair, cursing under my breath. Just then, my phone rang. Pulling it from my pocket, I glanced at the screen — Mina, my personal assistant from the
Ruin Me, Brother 47
JaceThe gym was unusually quiet that morning. The silence enveloped me as I stood in the empty gym.There were no sounds of punching bags or footsteps on treadmills, just the gentle hum of the air conditioning. My thoughts raced, spiraling out of control.I couldn’t focus because I hadn’t slept. My mind was consumed with her. I couldn’t shake the memory of how Celeste looked at me when I told her I couldn’t stay away. The sound of her voice whispering my name before she finally fell asleep haunted me.I had sat beside her bed for hours, watching her fever break, listening to her breathing become steady and even, and making sure she was okay.Leaving her this morning was one of the hardest things I’d ever done. I reassured myself that I would only be gone for ten minutes to clear my head before returning to her.Ten minutes. That’s all I needed.I jogged back toward my room with a towel slung over my shoulders, already thinking about checking on her again.Then I heard it.BANG.A gun
Ruin Me, Brother 46
CelesteThe first thing I noticed when I woke up was the silence.The room was quiet, with no sound of steady breathing or footsteps. Only golden sunlight streamed through the curtains, casting warm patterns on the white sheets.The chair where Jace had sat all night watching over me was empty.He was gone.I briefly questioned if it had all been a dream. His voice saying he couldn’t stay away, his gentle touch moving my hair aside, and the heartbreaking apology that shattered my heart.Maybe the fever had made me imagine it all.But then I caught it — the faint smell of his cologne still hanging in the air, the blanket he had tucked around me still holding his warmth.He’d been real. And now he was gone.A lump formed in my throat as I reached out with trembling fingers to touch the edge of the chair, which was still slightly warm.He’d just left. Maybe minutes ago.The silence was suffocating. I wrapped the blanket around me, inhaling his lingering scent, and fought back tears.I wa
