Torn Hearts

4. 'The worst'

"Do-don't! Adley!" Jayden panicked, not knowing what to do.

"You know how you can save her, right?" Adley mentioned with a smirk.

Jayden understood what he was saying. He looked at Fallon, who looked confused, nervous, scared, and angry. Jayden looked back at Adley.

"You will or should I just?" He said while loading the gun. "Kill her?"

"No! I-I will!" Jayden exclaimed, his breathes never calming down.

Jayden bent down on his knees and looked at Adley's feet. The gunshot wound on the knee... It hurt way too much. The amount of the pain can't be expressed. The blood flowed, but Jayden could care less.

'𝘐 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯'𝘵 𝘴𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘔𝘰𝘮... 𝘐 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘍𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘯... 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦...' He thought.

"Father... I'm sorry... I'm really sorry for disrespecting you... Please... Please spare her life... I ask of you..." Jayden begged, as the blood had now stopped, as he had pressed it hard.

"Jayden... You-" Adley cut Fallon off.

"Oh, Son. You're bleeding alot." Adley said, bending down in front of Jayden and pressed his knee.

Jayden's face scrunched up in pain, as he hissed but tried his best not to make a sound.

"Jayden..." Fallon whimpered, as her tears escaped her eyes.

"Fine... I spare her life." Adley said, getting up.

Jayden came back to life, as he couldn't be any more glad.

"But she'll be in pain until Felix comes." Adley said, as he held Fallon's arm and started to drag her out of the room.

Jayden's eyes shot up, as he got up immediately, ignoring the pain which was as if these are his last moments.

"No! Ad- Father! Please! I- You-You should take me instead of her!" Jayden panicked, as he held Adley's arm and tried to stop him.

He wasn't in any condition to face him by fighting. He could save Fallon only by begging.

Adley took Fallon out of the room and locked from the outside, leaving the shouting Jayden behind.

"NO! FATHER PLEASE! PLEASE TAKE ME! DON'T HURT HER! HEY! FATHER!" Jayden kept on shouting and banging the door, trying to break it, until he realized nothing can be done now.

"Felix f***** hurry!" Jayden muttered, as he couldn't hold the pain anymore.

He sat on the bed, his legs straight, as he looked at his knee, only to find it bleeding like crazy.

"Fallon... Hang on.... Wait just a bit..." Jayden muttered, as his heart never stopped thumping hard, in fear of losing his loved one... again.

"Leave me!" Fallon shrieked, as Adley threw her on the floor entering his room and locking the door.

"You see, I've always wanted to see how you looked completely... Guess I've got the chance today." Adley said with a creepy, sly smirk, as Fallon's breathe hitched.

No... It's not what she thinks... It can't be.

Adley started to come towards Fallon, as she was backing away, crawling.

"No... Un-Uncle... Please..." Fallon said, as her eyes shook in fear.

When she had reached the wall, Adley bent down and held her from the back of her head.
