Chapter 351

"Rowan…"Blood poured from Rowan's lips in mouthfuls as his eyes stayed fixated on Natalie, full of longing and love. But now, he had no strength left for words.Jason's gun was down to its last two bullets, both buried in Rowan's abdomen. He kept Rowan pinned, driving elbows into him again and again until Rowan's breath grew shallow.Natalie had never panicked so much or felt so helpless, not even when she discovered Jason's betrayal or lay on the cold operating table. Nothing compared to this despair."Rowan, Rowan…" She snatched up a branch from the ground and stumbled toward them, desperate to help Rowan.Realizing what she was doing, Rowan grew even more frantic. He was losing strength, and who knew what'd happen to her if Jason broke free?Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.Without a word, he clamped both arms around Jason and summoned every shred of strength left to drag him backward, step by step, deeper into the woods.Now, Natalie had no idea where they wer

Poor Natalie must have hurt so much.Eventually, Bella and Benjamin managed to talk Susan into getting some rest, while they stayed behind in the hospital room, keeping vigil by Natalie's side.Bella set her plate down and sighed. "Natalie, I know you're hurting. But the dead can't come back to life, and the living have to keep going. "The Natalie I know is not someone so easily defeated by life, and you're not alone. You have us."Natalie frowned. She understood every word of that logic, but she couldn't just act like nothing had happened. The pain she now suffered was unlike anything she'd felt before.Bella exchanged a glance with Benjamin, who usually had a silver tongue but now found himself at a loss.When Jason betrayed Natalie, she'd been fueled by hate.
