scarlet's pov: 

a familiar shout that's all i heard before everything around me turned to chaos , i heard a weird sound just like a gunfire , i waited for the pain that i expected to come when ben called my name but nothing happened , i stood there parallelized as kristian  called my name but the fear had made me unable to respond , the only thing that didn't make sense was the fact that there was no pain , i was fine but the sound of the gunfire had happened and everyone around me was screaming 

"scarlet ? baby , answer me ?" Kristian's frantic voice snapped me out of my daze , i looked at his eyes and saw him looking at me with worry as he examined every part of my body 

"I . . . i am fine , why. . .what happened ? "  i asked him with a whisper as i looked around , my eyes scanned Noah and my grandma that were looking behind me with horror , I took a deep breath as i turned around , my heart was thumping fast , and my breathing was shallow as i saw mateo , Adam and donna surrounding a body that was laying right behind me,  i turned around and took a step closer knowing very well who that person that was laying on the floor , knowing that the same scream that had protected me from the gunshot was now laying on the floor in a pool of his blood 

"Ben . . ."  i stuttered as fear crept into my heart , my hands were trembling as i walked closer  , tears were already falling down in two streams , my mind was a mess 

"NO, BEN . . . " i screamed as i knelt beside the lifeless body on the floor  , i held his head in my hands as i cried , i saw mateo run closer as he shouted for Adam to call the ambulance , he knelt at the other side and started preforming medical help on the lifeless body 

"mateo  . . .  ben , please save him " I begged with tears  as two familiar hands tried to pull me back 

"No!! let me go " I screamed at kristian as i trashed in his arms while he pulled me away 

"calm down love !please , let mateo help him " kristian whispered as he hugged me from behind and left me to cry in his embrace , it took the ambulance 5 minutes to arrive and by the time they arrived  , mateo was already covered in blood as he did his best to keep ben from slipping away , i stared at the ambulance van that took ben and mateo away with lifeless eyes , i stood in my place staring , i felt like my soul left my body , no matter how hard i wanted to move i couldn't , kristian pulled me with him into the car as bodyguards surrounded us , i took a seat inside the warm car and felt a hand fasten my seat belt 

"scarlet , principessa? can you hear me ?" kristian whispered by my ear as  he caressed my messy hair 

"hum. . . " i hummed in reply as i looked into his eyes 

"everything well be alright okay , i promise !"

kristian pov: 

a lifeless pair of eyes stared at me as i talked with scarlet , her calm was scaring the shit out of me , I prefer for her to scream and cry 

"Scarlet , principessa? can you hear me ?" i begged her to answer the driver drove us towards the hospital 

"uhm " a small hum that was all she said 

"Everything well be alright okay , i promise !" i knew that i shouldn't promise her that , i knew that deep inside , but my heart was breaking as i looked at her pale , lifeless face , that had lost all smiles and all sings of life , i saw her nod her head at me as she tears escaped form her eyes , i hugged her body close to mine , and prayed , prayed for a miracle , prayed for a chance , prayed that the man who saved my love wouldn't lose his life . . .
