SOULS INTERTWINED

Chapter-8

Williams POV

Last night when Charles told me we were going to Cassandras place for dinner, I was very excited to see her and to see those stormy eyes. Still, my inner soul keeps on doubting her intentions, If she is the same as before, she is not worth the fight, but I want to know If she is the same or did she change for the good. When we went to the garden the other day, I could see she was lost in her world, but I very badly wanted to hold her, comfort her make her feel precious, but my brain kept on mocking me and telling me she was not as lovely as you think and don't get deceived by act she is putting up. These days every time I close my eyes, I see her eyes, my heart clenches when I see her sorrowful eyes, but I'm scared she'll hurt me. She brings a different side in me, I mean, I never thought I would give a girl flowers or make breakfast, and I have no clue why I call her princess, but every time I see her, she does something to me that no other girl has ever done not even the most attractive models in the world. Last night I wanted to talk to her very bad, and I wanted to take the pain out of her, but I could not, and what I did instead, I ignored her. When I saw her hurt face last night, my heart clenched because all I ever wanted was to see her have happy, joyful life. I saw that she had texted me to call me over for poker night, but I know if I go, I can't see her hurt, and that too because of me; oh god, why am I so scared of my past. I want to claim her and make her mine, but my brain is messing up with me; I think I should go for a walk. After I pulled on my hoodie and some shorts I started to walk across the harbour, I saw a tall, skinny girl in front of me and she looked very close to princess, the next thing I noticed was the girl was falling, and I ran and held her in my arms, when I saw who it was, it was Cassandra.

I held her and lifted her bridal style, the next thing I was doing was running towards the nearby hospital, once I got in they recognised who I was and had taken me to the VIP suits, once I placed her on the bed, I could feel my eyes blur, and a few tears started rolling down my cheeks. Why am I crying? I hadn't called even when my mom was hospitalised, and my mom was the only one I had. I saw the door open, and a team of physicians and nurses had come to treat princess. I moved a few steps back and moved out of the room; once I went out, I called Charlotte and informed her about the current situation. I saw the physician coming out and walking towards me

William: "How is she doing, sir?"

Physician: "she is great, Mr Smith; it's a case of low blood pressure, nothing to worry about."

William: "thank you, doctor."

I was happy at the news the physician had given me, and I went inside to check up on princess. When I walked in, I saw her sleep peacefully, and she suddenly started to talk in her sleep.

Cassandra: "Don't do this to me, Ethan; I love you, baby, no baby, don't leave me."

'Ethan, what did he do to her?'

Cassandra: "mum, don't play me into your business game; I can't do this. I don't have the mental strength to play these wicked games."

'Mum? Wicked games, what is she talking about?'

Cassandra: Carter, my love, did you think I was...

I suddenly saw the door open, and Charlotte came inside running

Charlotte: "Ed, what happened to her."

William: "nothing to worry about char, It's a case of low blood pressure."

Charlotte: "good, I'm glad she is fine. Was she with you?"

William: "no, sis, I was walking by the harbour, and I saw a girl fall, and it was Cassandra, so I got her to the hospital ASAP."

Charlotte: "Ed, thank you, you have no clue what she means to me."

William: "it's fine, sis, she means a lot to me too," I whispered the last part

Charlotte: "did you say something?"

William: "no", I lied

Charlotte: "I'll take care of her. You go home and take some rest."

William: "thank you, sis; tell me if you need any help."

Charlotte: "for sure, Ed."

I wanted to kiss princess goodbye, but Charlotte was there. I walked outside onto the busy streets and stayed to walk.

Why can't I resist her, and why is she in so much pain? When Charlotte said Princess means a lot to her, what does it mean? Knowing Charlotte, I know she won't trust anyone that quickly, and she never cares for anyone who does not give her the right vibes, as Charlotte says, "Vibes never lie". Could Cassandra be friendly? Has she changed... Wait, wait, wait, was she always nice, and I just thought she was like them cause she hung out with them. Earlier I saw her say something about Ethan; what could he possibly do to her? I was lost in my thoughts and went home. I just wanted to know what had happened to Cassandra and why she ran away from her luxurious life to live a simple life here. Know about how crazy the British paparazzi are? I typed her name on google, and I saw a lot of articles and pictures pop up. One, in particular, caught my eye "Is the Textile princess going become the Denim Queen" once I clicked on the article, it showed a picture of Cassandra getting engaged to denim king Carter Jones and my heart clenched. If she is getting married to a rich guy like carter, why did she run away from a promising future? She would get all the money she wants in that marriage, and isn't she the type that only cares about money? I got lost in my thoughts, and all of them were about princess.
