Kelly’s POV
Klay laughed like crazy after he looked at Pierce. I’m still trying to pull my arm from him but he just won’t let go. His neck was red and he looked really angry after seeing Pierce.
I swallowed hard as my heartbeat doubled. Pierce is here. Why is he here? Does that an Phoebe told him? What about Snow, my daughter? Did she bring her to him?
In spite of the situation, I couldn’t help but think about the possibility that Pierce already t Snow. That thought brought horror in my heart. I’m not ready yet.
“Funny how you bravely said that while I’m holding a gun. Do you think you can stand against my bullet, Anderson? You’d be buried six feet under the ground even before you got close to ,” Klay said as he brushed his gun against his cheek, smirking.
I saw Pierce’s balled fists tremble. He glanced at and his eyes softened. “Are you alright?”
Klay seed offended. “Don’t ask her such stupid questions, Anderson. I love Kelly. I will never hurt her.”
“Fight fair, asshole. Abducting her and keeping her in a secluded place won’t give you so advantage to her heart. She doesn’t wanna be with you anymore.”
“And she wants to be with you? Just admit that I’m wiser than you, Anderson. I managed to find her even with her hidden identity.”
I squeezed my eyes closed. I know everything would beco even more complicated if Klay sees Pierce. They hated each other but Klay’s hatred for him was so strong that he could kill him.
When I opened my eyes again. I looked at Pierce. He was just staring at my face as if weighing my reaction but my eyes widened again and my heart raced when Klay lifted the gun in his hand. “Say goodbye to the beautiful world, Anderson.”
“NO!” I shouted and pushed Klay’s arm. The bullet hit the couch and when I looked at Pierce, he’s hiding behind the wall. I was relieved.
“KILL HIM!” Klay shouted to his n before he started dragging again.
“Let go, Klay!” I growled angrily. I looked back. Klay’s n were firing at Pierce and it’s scaring .
I gasped when he brought to the rooftop and there’s a chopper waiting for us. He prepared for this.
“Let’s go, Kelly. I won’t let that asshole take you away from .”
I shook my head as I looked at Klay in the eyes. “I don’t wanna go, Klay. Please...”
“I can’t leave you here, Kelly. You need to co with .”
“I don’t wanna be with you, Klay. Please...just...let go.”
He clenched his jaws and suddenly carried . I shrieked and grabbed his hair. “Put down, Klay! You can’t force like this!”
When he put on the chopper, I slapped his n who tried to touch and kicked Klay’s stomach. I jumped out of the chopper but Klay wrapped his arm around my waist.
“Sir Klay, we need to leave.”
I shook my head and I panicked again. I bit Klay’s shoulder and he scread as he was forced to let go.
“Kelly!”
I ran to the edge of the rooftop and faced him. His eyes widened as he stood there frozen, unable to follow anymore.
Tears rolled down my cheeks because of anger. He just can’t force like that.
“Kelly...” His eyes and voice softened. “Babe...”
I angrily wiped my tears. “I’d jump from here, Klay.”
It scares . I don’t wanna die but pushing his emotions to the limit using myself might wake him up from his stupid illusions.
He slowly shook his head. His shoulders dropped and he seed to have lost his strength and bravery. “You won’t...do that.”
“I will,” I answered laughing like a madwoman. “I’d rather die than be caged with you.”
“SIR!” The pilot shouted when a group of police ca. Two of Klay’s n helped him when he got shot on the stomach.
Klay was conscious but he’s not moving. He’s just looking at with those pained eyes. He’s bleeding but he won’t even pay attention to his wound. When the chopper successfully left, I felt my knees trembling. I lost my balance but even before I fell flat on the floor, a pair of warm arms wrapped around my waist, catching .
I lifted my face and looked at the man who caught . Pierce... The first man I loved romantically. He was my best friend and swore to protect when we got married but he hurt eventually. Now, he’s back in my life and I’m so afraid of trusting him again.
He caressed my cheek, wiping the tears that rolled down my face. His eyes were looking at softly as he constantly swallowed hard.
“Are you okay?” His gentle voice filled my ear but my mind was in so much chaos.
I pushed him away and stood straight. If he’d end up like Klay just because of his feelings for ...I don’t need his love. My life is ssy enough. I don’t want another mad love that would ruin even more. I just want a simple life with my daughter. I don’t mind getting old and gray without a man beside . My daughter is enough.
