Unbroken

Chapter 35 Decisions

Her POV

Sleeping in the arms of the love of your life is one of the most romantic things you could ever experience. It's not the soft fabric or the leather mattress that makes your sleep comfortable. It's the heartbeat that you can hear when you are next to him. It's not the cozy and fluffy blanket that keeps you warm. It's his tight hug. You can sleep in a hard and cold bed but still feel warm and secured because you are in your lover's arms. That's how love turns everything upside down. It makes you see the positive things no matter how negative the situation is. It gives you light no matter how dark your world is. It gives you life.

He is my life. He is the light in my dark heart. He is the reason why I still have it together. Why I can still tame my monsters, that's because of him. He is the reason why I try hard not to break down and cry in front of all people, but I always end up crying in front of him. Lying here with him beside me makes me happy. I have always been happy because we were together. I gave him my heart and it belongs to him for eternity. No amount of cruelty can make me hate him. No amount of pain can make me forget about him. 

But all good things come to an end, right?

As I open my eyes, I can feel thousands of hammer pounding my skull. I can almost taste my bloody brain due to extreme headache. What did I do last night?

I completely opened my eyes and the view that welcomed me took the pounding feeling away. His strong brows made him look more manly. His long curly eyelashes which are darker than mine makes me want to pluck it. Even if his eyes are still closed, I can envision his piercing orbs. His pointed nose and perfect red lips were more than a handsome man could have. Now, what did I do last night? I looked around and I was in my room. The colorful black shade is everywhere so this is probably my neat room....and I am naked under my sheets.

Naked. I am actually and utterly naked. I swallowed hard and did a trip down my memory lane.

Okay. I think I know what happened.

As I start to think about last night, the pounding feeling came back. My head's throbbing with pain. Vodka. Ow sht. I remember it now. I drank two bottles of freaking vodka last night. Then this man arrived and took me here. Bakit siya umuwi? Then I remembered what was the reason why I almost killed myself with alcohol. Naramdaman kong muli na parang tinutusok ang aking puso ng napakaraming karayom. Sa dami nito ay halos mabutas na iyon. The feeling of a hole in my chest brings me so much pain.

I traced the man's face. His cheekbones are naturally highlighted giving him a strong sexy look. Too early for that comment, Curran. Wait, do I need to still be conservative?  I doubt that.

"I don't know what I would do if I lose you Raijin. I really don't know."

I traced his closed eyes.

"You are the only thing that's keeping me together. Losing you would make me go on berserk mode."

If I lose him, i'd probably unleash the devils Sebastiano have been looking for.
