ENZO DE-LUCA.

Getting inside the ward, I couldn’t tear my gaze away from the fragile frame of Maeve on the bed, watching her was enough to bring a sudden calm to my storm.

Her hair was scattered across the bed, her perfectly carved pink lips called out to me and it was everything I could do to not kiss her.

To not hold her close to my chest and whisper in her ear over and over again how much I love and desperately need her in my life.

She’s the air that I breathe, my very own life and without her, I cease to exist and I want to show instead of say all these things to her.

I want her to know not just how much effect she has on me but how much she has impacted my life. I don’t act the way I do because I want to.

“I’ll make oatmeal for her and go to the convenience store down the road to get her things she might need.” Scarlett’s voice jolted me out of my thoughts and I nodded.

“Okay. Thank you.” I smiled, holding Maeve’s hand and kissing it as I stroked the back of her palm lightly.

    MAEVE HAWTHORN.“You’re ready to go home now, Miss Hawthorn.” The doctor said with a smile and I thanked him. Scarlett and Enzo were both with me, ready to offer a helping hand whenever I needed one.“Finally, you can leave.” Scarlett said with a smile while Enzo made his way out to get the car ready, leaving me alone with Scarlett.“Have you made up your mind? Are you going with him? Have you forgiven him?” She asked and I shook my head, not entirely an answer to the questions she’d just asked.The words he’d said yesterday rang in my head and I took a deep breath. I really don’t know but I don’t want to rush into anything.“I don’t know,” I responded as Scarlett and I walked out of the ward room and into the elevator, “we’ll see how it goes.” I added just as we got to the last floor.Enzo was already waiting and without being pushy and not asking if I was going back to Scarlett’s apartment or his house, he only helped me into the car.I had no idea what I was going to do next, stepp

    ENZO DE-LUCA.I swallowed, my chest tightening as I looked into her tear filled eyes. I knew she had said something right before the words she just said and I couldn’t stop punching myself in the guts for missing it.I’ve hurt her, there’s no denying that. I could see the pain in her eyes, the weight she carries and I hate myself for putting her through it all.I hate myself for letting her go through a disrespect from someone I felt nothing for. If I could turn back the hands of time, I never would’ve brought Yvette to my house.I wanted to hold her but I really didn’t want to feed off of what she had just said, I didn’t want her thinking that I was putting pressure on her.“Maeve, I— I’m—” my voice broke and before I could get any word out, the door opened and the doctor walked in, causing me to take a step back.I had ruined things after all my big talk of promising her that I was going to make sure that she doesn’t regret accepting me into her life.“How are you feeling now?” The

    MAEVE HAWTHORN.“Stop. Just…. Please, Stop.” I pleaded because I knew that if he kept talking, I was going to melt down. I was going to want him to hold me and right now, I need to be strong.“I’m sorry.” Enzo apologized with a small smile as he took a few steps away from me. My heart raced so hard it echoed in my ears and the room that was clearly large enough to hold up to twenty people felt too small for the both of us.I wanted him. There’s no doubt about that. I would never love any other man as much as I love him but this….…. I don’t know. I don’t know how to feel. I don’t know how to just forget the disrespect after everything he just said.I had questions, thoughts that I needed to let out. That I needed to let him hear, I wanted to know what happened.What betrayal was so great that he had to kill the woman he loved so much that he had gotten married to?Although he had said that he lost a lot of people he loved because of her, I still wanted to hear more about her. I wanted

    ENZO DE-LUCA.Driving with Maeve and Scarlett in the backseat, my hands were shaking and at some point I could swear that the steering wheel almost flew right out of my hand.I’ve never felt this weak, helpless and completely useless.Maeve was in pain, that much was clear but I couldn’t do anything to help her. I couldn’t do anything to ease her of the pain she was going through and it was also obvious that she didn’t want me to see her struggling.She had lied to me, pretended she was fine while trying to handle what she was going through. My vision was blurry and I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes.I can’t…. I can’t handle a situation like this.“DRIVE FASTER, ENZO!” Scarlett’s voice brought my thoughts to a stop and with a level of determination that I didn’t think I could attain, I grabbed the steering wheel tighter.“Maeve is….” Scarlett’s voice trailed off at first and I looked in the rear view mirror to see her bawling her eyes out while Maeve’s head rested on her la

    MAEVE HAWTHORN.“…. So, please, Maeve. I am begging you. I really cannot live my life without you.” He finished and I swallowed even though it was difficult due to the fact that I could literally feel my uvula get bigger.He knew just what to say, he knew all the right words and ways to make me feel like I made the wrong decision leaving.Sighing, I buried my face into my pillow and let out a loud muffled scream before lying back down, facing and counting the ceilings.What do I do now?Those things he said, I could feel the truth in them, I could hear and also feel the genuineness of those words and right now, I feel like I’m at a cross words.Each word tugged at my heartstrings and it was difficult to ignore that but there was no way I could just abandon everything only to run into his arms, I don’t want that at all.I’ve been disrespected, insulted and humiliated in an abode I thought was filled with love and what I want right now is to stand firm on my decision and not waver.Enzo
