Haunting Adeline Gun Scene Chapter 16 Novels & Stories

ADELINE'S POV But first, I had to survive the next few months. I had to make sure Hope was born safely. And I had to make sure nobody killed us before then. A week later, something happened that changed everything. I was lying in bed when I heard loud noises in the hallway. Shouting. Running footsteps. Gunshots. "What's happening?" I called out. Nobody answered. More gunshots. Then silence. The door to my room opened. "Elena," a voice said.

ADELINA'S POV I sat across the glass wall with a warm mug in my palms just staring at the warm cup. I was still curious about the lady in the wedding photo but didn't know how to. Her pictures filled the room like he was scared to forget her One of my favourites was the cute one framed on a table right under the wedding photo. Adeline was grinning in the image petting her obvious bump. That must have been shortly before she died. "Here, have something to eat." Lawrence slid a plate of sandwiches before me before he sat by my side to enjoy his coffee.

Someone behind Eve ordered Adeline. Axel could see the sardonic smile on Adeline's face—a woman who he knew wasn't afraid of anything, including death. "Don't ruin your life for me, Adeline," Axel muttered softly. "Drop your gun, and I promise I won't let anyone hurt you. My enemy is Andres, not you." "Are you joking with me?" Adeline responded calmly. "I'll only drop this gun after I kill you." Yes, Axel knew she wasn't joking. Because exactly two seconds later, Axel heard the startling sound of her gunshot. Not just once, but she fired three shots that hit him perfectly.

His finger twitched on the trigger and before I could stop him, the gun went off. "NO!" I screamed, rushing forward as the sound of a gunshot echoed. Adeline gasped, eyes wide with panic and shock as she crumpled to the ground. Blood stained her shirt, and time seemed to slow as I lunged towards Tristan, grabbing the gun off his hand and hitting his temple with a crushing blow. He crumpled to the ground immediately. I dropped to my knees after that, cradling Adeline in my arms while I tried to stop the bleeding.

Chapter Forty Nine Aria For a second, I thought I was hallucinating. I didn't want to believe the sight in front of me, but the more I willed myself not to believe it, the more the evidence in front of me was glaring. I saw the fire pit, the lantern light, and worse of all? Adeline in his lap. Her dress had darkened down the front, fabric clinging to her chest. His hands were at her waist, her face was far too close to his, and the drink?

My feet cripples and I collapse on the van floor. A hand pick me up and throw me at the corner. They slammed the boy to my side. He wheezed. I gasp. His head hits my rib side, sending black spots to my eyes. I’m still coughing and gasping for air when a shoe heel pressed itself in my head. Forcing me to bend. “So it wasn’t that challenging to find you.” Adeline said, exerting force to her heel, bending me lower. I catch a crack of glimpse behind her shoe. Her blood red lips curl into a smile. A calculative evil smile. And I can’t suppress the shudder running through my spine. The groundkeeper has settled himself in the passenger seat at the front.

The boys stare, confused, their heartbeats loud in my ears—too familiar, too much like mine. “Vincent,” Adeline says, her voice shaking now. “You don’t know what you’re saying.” “Don’t I?” I lean in, my voice a whisper for her alone. “I smell it, Adeline. Your heat. Their blood. You can’t hide from me.” She flinches, and for a moment, I think I’ve won. But then the older boy steps forward, his small fists clenched, glaring at me. “Leave my mom alone.”

Torture me like always or better still, end my life? I'm not ready to subject myself to any of her misleading decisions anymore. "Adeline.." "Let me have the papers." I said, stretching out my palms. She grinned proudly, "I know you would always do what I say." Her mouth hung in shock when she saw me tear off the papers, sending the pieces flying in the air. "Satisfied?" The moment she tried to move closer to me, I picked up my phone, dialing 911. "Hello, there's crazy woman here. She's with a gun, please come quickly. The address? Okay…. City hosp…"

It wasn’t confirmed yet, but in our world, it wasn’t impossible either, especially when that man made a deal with the devil or was the devil himself. We ended the day. Hendrix and Hunt went back to their work while we drove back to the pack house after we made sure that Milka was fully recovered. She was supposed to go home, but she insisted on coming with me. I thought it was because she wanted me to come to her when I was pulled into Kaiser’s world, but I was wrong. “I saw you, Adeline,” she said after I closed the door when we entered my room. “What?” I asked, “I saw you standing next to the man who was found dead at your border.”

rich. ‎" Oh well this is Adeline" my dad smiled at me as the man opposite him turned to me. He looked deep into my eyes I felt small under his gaze. I looked away as I looked down. I could still feel his stare. I heard him hum lightly which made me look up. ‎"This will do" the man said as he stood up and his men followed him out. But my dad stood up and stopped them before they left. ‎"this is my older daughter. The deal was for the youngest" my dad chimed. A what? I was so lost.
