KS3 - COLE ✔

Chapter 37

Kai's POV

"All Elites, guard your post now. Sir Tharn and Type will reach the location in about 5 minutes now." I heard my dad announced through the team's radio device. He sent half of the team here to the hospital. They are now securing the entrance and the VIP floor where Cole is currently in.

I cried a river already. I can't cry more. I failed as an Elite and as his boyfriend too. This is all my fault. I am fucking stupid. Why did I even allow him to buy that fucking ice cream with me? I am the biggest idiot ever.

I won't forgive myself if something happens to Cole. I am just praying for him to wake up.

His parents are on vacation and are now rushing to go back. Sir Tharn and Type is already coming and I know I am doomed. Everyone will blame me for this.

"Kai, fix yourself," Cirrus asked me. How can I fix myself when I brought my boyfriend to this kind of situation? I have no right to be with Cole. I can't manage to see him hurt like this again. Two stabbed in the stomach and one near his fucking heart. Who is evil enough to do this to Cole? I am with him all the time. He has no time to argue with any people.
Is it August? I clearly hear him saying that name before he blacked out. What the fucking hell? Once I proved that this is his doing, I am going to chase him from any part of the world and bring him to hell by myself.

I heard the commotion. The old couple is approaching along with their guards. I stood up right away. I was welcomed by Sir Type's hard slap. I thought I am going to receive this from Sir Tharn but I am wrong. Sir Type is always kind to me ever since and cherishes me but I made the biggest mistake and I can't blame him.

"Stupid. I don't want to see you near Cole ever again." I expected this. I know, after this, things will be different now.

His husband is trying to control his wife.

"Baby, do you think Cole will be happy seeing you treat his Kai like this?" Sir Tharn asked him.

"Do you think I fucking care, Tharn Kirigun? Shut up or you're going to occupy the hospital bed on the other room!" Sir Type yelled. He turned to me. "Go away! I don't want to see the reason why my grandson is here. I thought you are an Elite. Your grandfather wasn't able to protect pops and now you...Your bloodline will be the fucking end of us."
I can't say a single word. He is right. I am the reason why my boyfriend is now in critical condition. I don't have any excuse. I am trained to protect him but because of my fucking craving we are now in this worst situation. They entered the room and left me here outside. It's been two hours and I missed my Cole already. I think I am dying thinking what the hell did I fucking do. I am so mad at myself.

My dad tried to rub my back. "He will be alright son, we are talking about Cole here. He will fight because he knows it will be painful for you too."

"Dad, I'll quit. I failed this time, I'll lose my mind if something happens like this again. I never wanted him to be hurt. This is all my fault. We should have brought other guards, we should have stayed inside, I shouldn't have let him wait outside the store for me." My tears won't stop flowing again.

"Now you know how hard it is to be on this team, you should be serious on your job now."

I can't anymore.

My mom is at home busy retrieving all messages on Cole's phone.

My phone vibrated.

"Be careful, Kai. He is not on the right mind. I thought he liked you... No, he is obsessed with you. I saw his private folder on his laptop, every picture is stolen shots of you." April sent a message. She is not aware of what happened to Cole yet.

Damn it! Am I really the reason? They are friends. How can August do this to him? I don't think I am the only reason. Stabbing is just too much.

My mom informed me that Cole asked about August's location just before the stabbing happened. He rented a room near the penthouse.

"Dad, I have to leave first." I will search for him no matter what and tear all his limbs. He fuckin stabbed Cole, I am going to the same.

I searched every room. They said he left already. I called mom to trace him. When I told him I'll find August by myself he stopped giving me the details.

If he is not going to help me then maybe I need to do this all by myself.

I started searching him from their mansion to the hotel owned by Cole's family where he stayed for weeks and to April's household.

It was already morning when I decided to return to the hospital.

"Please go out, Kai." Sir Gulf said. His family is complete inside. They said Cole is now safe from the critical condition and just waiting for Cole to wake up. I sat in the lobby area. It was few meters away from the room.

Please wake up Cole and tell me that everything will be okay. His family is against me now. I waited for them to leave first. I heard that they'll be staying in the hotel just behind the hospital that's why they requested more Elites to secure the place.

I should stop dreaming of being the Head Elite. I don't have the tiniest right to be part of it.

I checked the room. When I thought everyone was gone, I saw Sir Mew, Cole's father sitting inside. He saw me so I lowered my head. I can't face him.

"Come inside, Cole will be happy to see you first when he opened his eyes." Sir Type and Sir Gulf are so mad at me, but here is Sir Mew still trying to say kind things to me. I didn't expect him to be nice to me because I know how much he hates my dad. "I'll just buy some food. You stay here with him, okay? I know he is safe with you." He patted my head. I cried when I heard these unexpected words from him. He gave me a tiny amount of relief.

He left the room and I am now alone with my boyfriend.

"Babe, please wake up now. Tell me everything will be alright." I wiped my tears. "Tell me I am stupid for asking to buy ice cream when my throat is swollen. Please scold me like before. Why didn't you enter the convenience store? Are you texting August at that time? I promise I won't talk to him anymore. I promise I'll follow everything you want. Ask me again to stay with you at the penthouse after I served you the justice, I will gladly do it. Please wake up now, babe. You said you don't want to see me crying. I am crying so hard now so please wake up and tell me to stop. Tell me not to cry. Please wake up. I won't stop crying so please wake up, babe. I can't handle the pain. Please, babe. Look at me!!!" I kissed his forehead. Why is he not waking up? "Wake up. If you don't, I'll unblock all the guys you blocked on my Instagram." I held his hand. I love you so much, Cole. I promised to protect you with my life and I failed. Do not worry. I'll find him no matter what. He messed with the wrong guy.

I know his clan is now hunting August down. They started with their family businesses already. The elite team is now searching for him too but I can't just sit and do nothing.

I went back to the mansion to get my stuff. Everyone's stares are judging me. No one tried to approach a failure Elite.
I grabbed my kit. I swear in my life, I am going to make you pay whoever did it to my Cole.

I'll be gone for a moment. You have to wait for me until I settle everything.

Please wake up because I promised to marry you, Cole. You have to wake up for me.
