GHOST OF YOU

twelve

Akeisha didn't sleep the whole night, just stared at Y/N's unconscious body

Why? Why did they have to take her as well? She doesn't want Y/N to be tangled into this mess, she has a whole lot of bright future ahead of her. She didn't walk down the aisle yet; she can't die here.

Akeisha felt the sunlight come in from the broken walls of the abandoned building they're in. It's day time already and she feels her body slowly giving up from the restless nights since she was confined here.

"Hmm," she immediately looked at Y/N, "my head hurts.."

"Y/N!" Akeisha sighed in relief, "thank God."

Y/N blinked her eyes continuously, nothing registered inside her mind. She looked at her left where Akeisha is, almost screamed when she saw her cousin tied up in thick chains and that's when she felt almost the same chains around her body as well, "where.. Where are we? I.. I was waiting for Ran, how did I.."

"They kidnapped us," Akeisha answered, "they are Bonten's enemy and they kidnapped us to lure them here."

Y/N was lost for words, remembering the time Hanma took her by kidnapping Emma

"Oh, you're awake," they both looked at the man, holding two plates before placing it down on the floor to get the keys, "I'll give you time to catch up a bit and tie you up again after. After all, it all ends tonight."

He went to Akeisha first then Y/N, smirking at their glaring faces

"Damn, no doubt why Bonten executives took an interest on the both of you. I'd like to fill you in with my seeds if the circumstances were different," Y/N cringed at this, as if she'd let him, "and don't think about escaping. My men are all over the building. It won't end well if you even try."

With that, he left. Akeisha immediately went to Y/N to hug her as she started crying.

"There must be some way to escape, right?" Akeisha asked. A loop hole, an unguarded exit, anything.

"I can't," Y/N whispered as she calmed down, "I can't risk it, Aki."

"We'll be fine–"

"Remember how I lost my first child?" Y/N cut her off, "I was so heartbroken after that. Rindou was, too. I swore to myself if we'll be blessed with another kid again, I'll protect it with everything in me."

Akeisha looked at her confusingly. It's like she gets it, but at the same time she doesn't. Y/N smiled at her

"Akeisha, I'm pregnant," she sobbed, "I was supposed to tell Rindou but he said something came up and Ran will pick me up instead, so I even thought of different ways to show him my pregnancy test kit."

Akeisha smiled, but a sad one. She would definitely lay her life to protect Y/N all the more this time.
