BONUS CHAPTER

Author's note : Hey guys I'm back :)

I know I promised a lot of you guys a sequel to this book (Oblivious), but since I'm doing an epilogue, I will NOT make a sequel. The story ended exactly the way I wanted it to when I began the book, so I'm going to leave it as it is. I never planned to make two books in the first place, it was just a thought that crossed my mind halfway through the book.

I thought about it a lot and decided not to make one, since I'm extremely busy with work and I got a shit load of other books to publish.

On that note, I hope you'll enjoy the epilogue 😊

"It's okay, babygirl. I got you..." his voice sounds so far away... it's like I'm trapped in a dream and his voice calls me from the other side.

He tightens his grip around me but my body seems to be numb. I think my eyes are opened, but I can't see anything. I can only hear his soothing voice and the echoing sound of the gunshots.

I've been in the darkness for about 20 minutes now. The gunshots stopped a long time ago. The arms wrapped around my body stopped struggling around a long time ago.

The screams of the police officers stopped a long time ago...

I shift in his embrace and turn my face to him. He cups both of my cheeks and speaks calmly to me. My sight is blurred, I can't focus.

"Hailee, I'm right here. Everything's okay..."

Grayson?

His hands slip down to my arms and he shakes me lightly to bring me back to reality. He raises his voice a tad louder. I squeeze my eyes shut and cover my ears as I begin to scream at the top of my lungs to block him out. He shakes me harder and yells louder at me.

I struggle away from him and keep my eyes closed. I feel his strong hands wrapping around my arms once more as he desperately moves me around. He snatches my hands away from my ears and I open my eyes almost automatically. I snap my head up to him, tears threatening to fall.

He's panting, cheeks lightly red, hair tangled and messy. His eyes are drained out of color.

He seems relieved, but also scared.

My gaze slowly moves from his. I look around me. The floor is stained red. Dead bodies are laying around the room. Police officers are piled up right besides the door.

My eyes widen and I bring a hand to my mouth.

Grayson crawls up to me.

"Shh, it's okay. You're okay. They won't hurt you. I took care of them." he tries to reassure me as he rubs my back in circular motions. I press my parted lips against his shoulder and look at all the dead people surrounding us.

We killed all of them...

"Hailee..." he pushes away and frames my face in his palms. My eyes meet his and this time, I don't stop the tears from falling down. I soon find myself sobbing and looking down in fear.

"Everything's okay, I got you." he pulls me back to his chest and rests his wide hand behind my head. I fist his sweatshirt between my weak fingers, trying to calm myself down.

"We need to leave, baby... before anyone gets here." he whispers as he stands up and picks me up in his arms. I rest my head on his shoulder and my gaze gets lost in front of me. He walks out while carrying me bridal-style, not turning back once.
