The next hour was filled with multiple sirens, doctors running around, and harsh hospital lights blending with the sterile smell of the place. Ariella's emergency room remained locked shut.The doctor came out once, ignoring us while requesting that a nurse retrieve a specific blood type.Alex buried his face into Dimitri's chest, sobbing while muttering repeatedly, "It's all my fault."Dimitri looked uncomfortable, torn between pushing him away out of loyalty to me and pulling him close to console one of the few people he actually cared about.Me? I felt emptied out. In the span of a few hours, shame, regret, panic, and misery had taken their shots at me. The thought of Ariella not surviving this brought with it pain that made any bullet wound pale in comparison."You should get checked up too." Dimitri pushed him off slightly. "You're burning up, and you're hurt."Their arguing faded into the rest of the background noise. The metal waiting chair creaked beneath my weight, the others

Ariella's eyes widened, staring at me intently. The doctor looked between us, then stared up at me. Someone knocked on the door, and a nurse came in, holding a tray of materials."I'll just wait outside if you feel uncomfortable." Contrary to my words though, my feet remained firmly rooted to the rug."You're not leaving?" she asked, her tone sarcastic. The nurse held her down slightly, waiting for the doctor to give the go-ahead to raise the gown."You didn't ask me to." My gaze remained fixed on the doctor. Despite his innocent appearance, he was a guy nonetheless.Ariella hadn't told me the things Justin had done to her, but if our first encounter all those weeks ago was anything to go by, she wouldn't feel safe alone with a strange man she didn't know. And I would be damned before ever letting her feel unsafe again."No. I didn't." She faced the doctor. "What do you need me to do?""I'm Dr. Han Lee. This is Miss Melony. We're just going to redo your stitches. I can give you someth

Father and I stepped into the sterile hallway, taking up more space than either of us was comfortable with. Doctor Han came out behind us, clearly uncomfortable from our little family reunion. A scrawny ginger nurse walked by, shooting nervous glances between my father and me. One sharp look from me and she was running off, leaving a trail of papers behind her. Two men in black Italian suits taking care of a girl who had a bullet wound, maybe it was a bit intimidating. My expression stiffened into the default coldness that was always on my face around him. His was just as unreadable, though I still tried to read any signs of suspicion. Because when Kirilli Morozcov lost faith in someone, they were dead, that included me. "What the fuck were you doing?" The irritation in his voice was almost a lethal contrast to the calm on his face. "It was my fault, I swear it won't repeat itself. I'm not used to having to take care of someone else." "You're not used to taking care of someon

My father was a king-sized asshole. He had kept me up all night reviewing contracts that were already perfect and sorting files that Ruth had already gone through.Now, he left to enjoy a first-class flight while leaving me walking around like a starved zombie. My mood lightened when Ariella’s lips curved into a smile.“Well, I thought it was quite sweet.” She tried to get out of bed, something the doctor had warned against doing alone.“Wait, let me help you. The wound is just healing, so you still have to be careful.” I pushed out of the chair, dizzy from the lack of sleep and sudden movement.“It’s okay. All of you need to stop fussing so much. I’m fine.” She claimed, though she would have likely fallen flat on her face had I not lunged forward to catch her.“There’s no one else to worry about except me right now. I met up with Dimitri and Alex before coming in, so they should be waiting downstairs for us.” Alex had been given the green light to leave the hospital, but he remained

Dimitri shrugged like he hadn’t just flipped my whole world upside down. I felt frozen, at a loss for words.“Dimitri, keep your eyes on the goddamn road,” Killian bit out, turning his head slowly to face me.“You found them? You found my parents?” What I felt was more shock than excitement. Since I could remember, whenever the word “mother” crossed my mind, all that came was a blurry figure and a warm laugh. Now, when I thought about it, Anya’s face was clearly plastered in my head.“We’re not sure yet. Larson and Ruth just managed to narrow it down. He’s at the office right now because the tracking devices there are the fastest, and the hospital might not be safe with Vaughn on our tail. He was hoping to do your checkup there and maybe get a blood sample.”Besides the shock, something stirred inside me. An unjustified anger and sadness. “Why didn’t you tell me?”“I didn’t want to lead you on. We might be wrong. We only found people who fit the profile we were looking for.” Beneath t
