15|His Legacy

Today was the day we attacked. Finally, we could begin to get justice for him. Maybe, just maybe I could begin to heal. I was scared for the attack, not only am I putting myself in danger but now it's not just me. I could be putting our child in danger, if anything happens to them...I could never forgive myself.

I let out a breath and stare down at the same bullet proof vest he gave me that night. The memories of what went down that day still haunt me. I swallow and put it on.

Think of the baby.

So I shove my fears and emotions aside and do what I think is best to protect them. I grab the necklace off from my side and I clasp it, sliding off the small pendent and replacing it with his ring. I smile softly and wrap it around my neck and clasping it safely. My fingers softly touch the ring with a sad smile and I tuck it into my shirt.

Decorating my thighs with my daggers and my sides with my guns. I take a long look at myself in the mirror, not even recognising myself anymore. I do don't know who I was. Was I still the same strong women who didn't need anyone to rely on? Was I still that person who saw just how evil can ruin one, only for such beauty to be on the inside? Was I still that person who would become a dependent for someone?

Or was I just someone who is so tired of fighting?

I turn away from the mirror and look down at my phone. "I miss you. I'll stay safe." I whisper softly and slide my phone into my pocket.

I flip off the light and make my way towards the garage attached to my apartment complex. I go down the lift, ignoring the cold biting my skin harshly. The lift doors open and I step out, my steps echoing across the large garage. I see him, his smug smile and his lean body leaning against the car. Once he notices me, he pushes himself off and stand in front of me with his arms crossed.

"Ain't she a beauty?" He smirks. "Any chance I could take if for a drive?" I immediately say no. This car belonged to Grayson and I know for a fact he wouldn't let Ethan drive his car.

I let out a quiet scoff, rolling my eyes and pushing past him. "Too bad she isn't yours." I say behind my back. I open the door and lean my arm against it, turning towards him with a raised brow. "Are you going to stand there all day?"

He makes his way to the other side of me, opening the door to a different car. "How about a race, malady?"

"Don't come to me crying when you loose, Ethan." I climb into the car and watch as he too does the same. I roll my window down at the same time he does.

"Are you ready?" He asks.

I start the sports car m, the beautiful sound bringing an exited smile to my face. I smell it in the aid and I feel utterly close to him. "You bet." I say, gripping the steering wheel.

"Good, your here." Liam says as me and Ethan walk towards him. Beside him Kelly's stands with a serious face.
