REIGN'S POV My feet wobbled as I struggled to pull the door of my side of the car open. My fingers were trembling and couldn't grasp the handle tight. I looked up when Ivan pulled my hands away and pulled it open for me.I was not alone. Ivan was with me.My leg bounced throughout the ride, even placing my hand on it couldn't stop it. I bit into my nails as my thoughts ran haywire, making me even more distressed than I was.How bad was the accident? Was it really serious? I clasped my hand tight and prayed. Mel had to be okay. What would I do without her?“Calm down, Reign. Everything will be fine,” Ivan said, placing his hands over mine. He looked rather calm as he drove but I was sure he was just as distressed as I was.I jumped out of the car as soon as we got to the hospital. I had no idea I could run that fast until that day. Mel needed me.“Please, I'm looking for Melanie Anderson. She was involved in an accident,” I said to the nurse at the reception.She looked through her s

REIGN'S POV Was I running away? Did I think that leaving would erase what I had done? I clenched the hand I had placed on the wall for support. The message couldn't stop ringing in my head.Mel got hurt because of me.She got hurt because of me.It was my fault. I did that to her.Who the hell did I think I was, crying and holding her hand when I was the person that did that to her?I was not worthy.“The roof top of this hospital is pretty nice and it has a nice view of the city too, especially at night.” A patient was telling another one as they passed beside me.“Oh really? Should we check it out at night then?” The second one replied, their voices fading away as they moved farther away.The last time I had heard people talking about a place and I went there, my life tilted on its axis.Were the heavens trying to tell me something?I made my way to the said roof top, following the signs pasted on the wall.Indeed it was magnificent but also daring. The wind blew, scattering my hai

CHRISTIAN’S POV I sat stiffly as I watched Mel gazing out of the window. She hadn't glanced at me once since Reign and Ivan left. Were the city lights that attractive or she just didn't want to acknowledge me?I sighed and rubbed my hand down my face. Who told me to offer to stay with her when she was obviously put out with me? I looked at her when I heard shuffling and I immediately hurried to her side. “Is there anything you need?”She eyed me, like she couldn't understand my over the top reaction. “I want to sit up.”“I don't think you should do that yet. You need to avoid moving as much as possible because of your ribs.” I told her as I ducked to the side of the bed to help her raise it. “Is that okay?”She nodded and closed her eyes again, marking the end of our conversation. She was giving me quite the cold shoulder and I hated it.I had no idea why either. Why she was like that to me and why I hated it so much.“Do you…do you need anything else?” I asked her as I stood dumbly

IVAN'S POV “Are you okay?” That was all I could ask. I had no idea what happened. One minute, she was putty in my arms, moaning and whimpering and the next, she was far away from me, staring wide eyed at her phone. I couldn't make sense of it at all. She returned her phone to her pockets when I tried to check what she was looking at, then grabbed the flask and smiled at me like everything was okay, but I could see past it. After that, we made our way back to the hospital.Something was going on and it was on her phone.I had to get my hands on her phone.“Of course, I am,” she smiled and got out of the car.I frowned as I watched her walk away. Why couldn't she tell me what was bothering her? Was I not someone she could depend on? I knew I had let her down a few times but all of them were to protect her.I took the car to the parking lot in a hurry and made my way to Mel's room. Maybe I could convince Mel to help me find out what was going on. But that will be later. I still had to

IVAN'S POV I've had the craziest twenty four hours of my life. First off, I got the shocking news that Mel got into an accident, then Reign tried to take her own life, then my father showed up with Mel's father and now this.We would be getting married at the end of the month? What was this load of crap?“You're joking, right?” Mel's voice shook, her hands clenching the covers around her.“Who jokes with that, my dear daughter-in-law?” My father grinned, spooking me out. I hated it when he showed any hint of amusement. It meant he enjoyed preying on your weakness.“But that's really impromptu. The end of the month is like two weeks away.” She continued her argument but I knew it was futile. Trying to reason with them would not solve anything.“The earlier, the better,” Mel's father replied, this time.“This makes no—”“We are not getting married at the end of the month,” I cut in. “This is something that concerns Mel and I. As the parties involved, we would be the one to decide when
