"Peggy, keep your eyes at Jayden. Never take your eyes off him." Sophie murmured softly.
I looked at her and she was smiling. She turned to where Jayden was and I followed. He was still standing there. I couldn't take it anymore. I felt like our distance was so wide to the point that it was making restless.
I took a step forward and ran to him. A.E's security team pointed their guns to the man when they saw running towards Jayden. No one tried to stop . Maybe they know that Jayden would be mad if soone touched even just a single strand of my hair.
When I got closer, I crashed into his back and hugged him from behind. I know he was surprised. I was trembling, afraid that I would lose him.
When I felt his hand from mine, I cried. I feel safe just by his touch. I don't care if his other self wanted to kill . I trust Jayden. I would never doubt his love for . I know he will protect from my father and from himself. He's the only one who could make feel safe.
"Love?" He whispered.
"Don't look! Let's stay like this. I don't want to see that man." I answered.
"I understand. Don't worry, I would never let you go. I won't give you and Caden to your father." He said while he was staring at the man in front of him.
"I admire your courage and your love for her. But I know it will eventually ruin you both. Once you lose and you have no other choice, one of you will need to make a sacrifice." The man comnted.
I heard Jayden chuckled.
"First, you underestimated . Now, you underestimate our love. We don't need to explain anything to you. I believe you are the one who has sothing to say."
"Don't think that I am siding with you. I will do what you ask because of my brother and my sister. Just promise that they will be safe." The man said.
I couldn't understand what they were talking about but it seems the wheels have turned and George's brother would tell us everything he knows about my father's plan.
"You have my word. Take him."
Four n approached the man when Jayden said that. And while I tried to look at George's brother, I saw his hand was bleeding. That's when I realized he was the one who got shot.
I watched as the security team took him out of the restaurant until he disappeared from my eyes. When I looked outside, I noticed there were a lot of people including the dia.
"Love?" Jayden called.
He then turned around and faced . I slowly tilted my head up to look at his face. I was pouting and tears were starting to blur my vision.
"Hey. I'm sorry for worrying you." He said in a gentle voice while he wiped my tears.
I didn't say a word and just leaned my head to his chest, listening to his heart while I wrapped my arms around his waist.
I felt him hugging back and kissing the top of my head.
"Let's get out of here before the police arrive." It was Luke's voice.
I looked at Jayden again. He kissed on the forehead and brushed his hands to my cheek.
"Let's go ho for now. You can call your brother and Emily in the car."
I nodded. I almost forgot about Kyle and Emily. I took a deep breath and started to walk when Jayden pulled out of the restaurant.
The security team lined up to make a way for us. There were a lot of people including reporters who were trying to get information from us. No one from our side spoke even a single word.
dia Tech, owned by the Jackson Clan, was the only company who would know the information and we will decide when we will let it out in public.
I was quiet inside the car, waiting for Jayden. He was just outside talking to Luke, Andrew and Percy. I was sitting in the back seat while Owen and Jayden's cousin were in front.
"Princess, don't worry about your father. We will do everything to protect you and young master Caden." Owen blurted while looking at from the rearview mirror.
I smiled and nodded at him. "Thank you, Owen." I simply answered.
I'm not sure if I'm being rude but I felt anxious when Jayden was not by my side.
After talking to our friends and so of A.E's n, I saw him walk towards the car door. I looked at the rearview mirror again and I saw Owen smiled and nodded. He then closed the partition window between the front and the back seat.
As soon as Jayden ca inside the car, I knew he was about to say sothing but I crushed my lips with his, kissing him hungrily. I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to . He responded by pulling by the waist.
I don't know why my lips were trembling. Maybe because I have a lot on my mind and was really getting stressed with my father.
I wanted to feel his touch, his lips. I wanted to feel all of him. I brushed my tongue to his lips and slid it inside his mouth when he parted it. He t my tongue with his, gliding over each other and savoring the wetness and softness of our mouth.
Jayden was the one who pulled away first. He cupped my face, looking at , frowning.
"I'm really sorry for making you worry. Can you tell your thoughts?" He asked with a worried face.
I bit my lips, hesitating to tell him what I felt. I stared into his, curling my lips before speaking.
"W-When I heard the gunshot, I-I rembered the day you ca to the palace with blood in your hands. I don't want to see you like that again.. Love, promise whatever happens you will put your life first, okay?" I whispered in a trembling voice.
