~Tobias's pov~
"This is not fair... SHE NEEDS MY HELP! THIS FUCKTARD MOST LIKELY TRIED TO DO SOMETHING TO HER, OTHERWISE SHE WOULDN'T BE THAT VIOLENT!" I yelled, enraged. They suggested we isolate her for a while until she calms down, but I know that if I leave her alone right now, those newly created cracks would widen. I needed to go to her ,she needed me, but these morons were treating her like she was a monster, and even if she was, she would be my monster.
"Get the hell out of the way and let me in or I'll take your heads off in an instant, and you better not underestimate me because I'll do it." I seethed.
Before imposing a restriction on me, the staff members looked at me with fear.
"We'll only let you in for 30 minutes. That's all there is to it." The grey-haired man stated. I shoved him aside and stormed into the room, locking the door behind me.
Aurora was curled up in a ball, her face against the window. She was shivering and sobbing. Every fiber of my being was trying to prevent me from rushing to Rowan and simply snapping his head off.
I drew her into my arms, making her stiffen, but she soon relaxed.
"Tobias.."
My hands shook as her body shook. I stroked her cheek, causing her to close her eyes.
"Aurora.. I want you to pay close attention to what I'm saying. You are not worthless. You are priceless. I'm not sure who made you feel this way, but I'm guessing it was your psychopath ex. I swear to God, the next time I see your ex, I'm going to throw him in a jail cell and beat the living shit out of him until he bleeds out. I'm not interested in you for your money. I can cover my own expenses and desires, one of which is you. I want to pamper you, spoil you like you deserve, and make you feel immortal. I want you to know that your entire existence, not just your face, takes my breath away. I'll smile and ask for more if you punch me, and I wasn't kidding when I said I'd be alright if you stabbed me because you're the one who stabbed me. Aurora, get it in your brain that I fucking love you. I don't need your money to be in love with you. I want to love you consciously. I love you simply because I want to. Therefore keep in mind, Mrs. Nightingale, that you are priceless, my one and only." I said everything I always wanted to in one breath.
She was crying.. Her nose was red and her eyes were bloodshot with tears still falling.
Her muffled cries echoed through the room but I didn't try to stop her.
She needed to let out everything to feel better and while she does that I'll be here holding her in place.

As I clutched his shirt in my hands, his clothing was soaked with my salty tears.
His arms were tightly wrapped around my waist.
"Tobias I-"
"Mr.Nightingale , I believe you should leave right now." A member of the staff entered our room. Tobias' grip tightened.
"No. I'm not going anywhere."
"Please, Mr. Nightingale-"
"Are you deaf? I AM NOT LEAVING."
I cupped Tobias's face and forced him to look at me.
"I'll be fine...For now, leave." I mumbled softly.
As he wiped away my tears, his eyes softened noticeably.
"But you're still not feeling like yourself." He nuzzled up against my neck. I laughed.
"It's ok. I'll be alright as long as you come to meet me secretly, as forbidden lovers do."
I murmured into his ear, making sure no one else could hear.
