willing to be your knight (Knight Series, #2)

31: Stay (Away)

Luke

I have a supposed date with my hubby today. It's our 35th monthsary...

...and guess where I am at?

"I strangled him in the neck."

Out of my sudden burst of anger, I threw the book that I was reading ay him while listening to his rants. I legit looked at him with horror and disgust. He strangled Liam? How could he do that?

"I know but I was angry." I stood up and punched him in the face. A real hard hit.

"What fucking kind of excuse is that Axl?" I held the colar of his shirt. I don't do this to him often.

Shit, I can't even lay my hands on him because I don't wanna hurt him. But now? I wanna fucking kill him.

I tried to calm myself but I just can't help it. I knew Liam. Not as close as Axl did but when he collapsed on the stage, Liam was the one who got him to the hospital. I saw how worried Liam is towards Axl. It's like how I care for my boyfriend to be honest.

Liam was a caring person. A bit stingy, like how Axl described him to be but I saw how much he took care of Axl.

Now Axl is telling me he strangled Liam because he was angry?

"What if I kill you right now and tell you I was angry?" I let his collar go as I saw a tear falling.

Regret and sorrow is finally showing in his eyes.

"I know. I fucked up."

I was listening carefully to his story earlier and when Axl said the he heard Liam say that it was dumb for him to get engaged at twenty, I agreed. I didn't know Valerie personally but since the night I saw her, there's something in her eyes that didn't sit right with me.

I know he would be mad at Liam at what he said but I didn't even know that he could do this to Liam.

"Where's Liam?" I asked.

I calmed down and went on to grabbing my cellphone and contacting someone.

"Probably in a hospital."

I gasped in surprise. "Is it really that bad?"

"I kinda made him bleed."

My anger just rose but I controlled myself. He needs my help and me getting angry would do nothing.

"Hello?" I heard someone on the phone.

"Hi, this is Luke."

"Luke?" He paused. "As in Luke? Na dating presidente ng Business Management Faculty?"

I chuckled a bit. He's just as bubbly. I didn't even know he was connected to Liam. "I heard about your brother."

I saw Axl's eyes looked up at me with shock. I am Luke. I have way to many connections at school. I even graduated with a 4-month absence in my sophomore year in my first degree.

"I was wondering if I could know where he is—,"

"No. If you trying to get that man into my kuya's business...I am sorry kuya Luke. I would not let that fucking monster around my kuya. Stop bothering us with this or I will block you."

"But Layn—,"

"I have made up my mind kuya Luke. Call me about this again and I would file a case against him. Don't try me."

I just inhaled a deep breath before saying sorry and goodbye.

"You fucked up huh?" I asked him.

(A/N)

I kinda missed writing with Luke's POV. If y'all didn't know, Luke is one of the lead in the first book of the series. I just love his character and thought that it would be nice to write in his view.

By the way, this chapter has been in my drafts for so long, together with 2 chapters that I wrote back then. I felt that I did not want to release it yet but then I saw a reader reading the book and I felt guilty that I cut him/her on one of the peaks of the story. So here you go!

Shout out to you! This mini chapter is for ü.

Stay safe and I love y'all!

Cap out!
