Gradually I opened my eyes and looked around.

Cemented walls.Containers of all kinds and men holding weapons and daggers.

"Where am I?"I whispered to make sure my mouth was open. My arms and legs were fastened with the wooden chair I was sitting on and it hurt like crazy, the ropes were rough and hard.

"WHERE AM I?"I shouted.

Everyone clearly ignored me.

"WHERE AM I, MIGUEL YOU MOTHER FUCKER!"

I heard a low laugh.

"So, you swear, "I heard footsteps.

"Nice, Swear all you want because in twenty minutes you're gonna be dead."I saw him stand in front of me.

His head was full of white hair and he was quite old, Like My dad's age.

Gosh.

"What do you want?"I demanded. Tears swimming in my eyes.

"With Edwin dead and Mike is old enough that he'll die in a few years...."

Mike, Mr. Thompson.

"Edwin's not dead!"I gritted my teeth.

"Well, if he isn't then he'll be...But the main target of mine is the baby living in your womb,"

I gasped.

Not my baby.

"W-what?"

"Don't act dumb, Bitch. Once I'm done with you.NO one will remember the Thompsons!"He let out an evil laugh.

"Why are you even doing this?"I demanded in a soft tone.

Because gentleness is better than harshness.

"You know the whole story, Don't you?"He asked in a dangerously soft tone.

I sat still. It felt like the ropes were digging in my flesh.

"It was your Grandfather's revenge!"

"I'm the part of the family, Right?"

"Why don't you leave them alone?"I demanded.

"I don't want to,"

"But Martin, your son...."

"I don't know from where he inherited a soft heart."He growled.

I stayed silent, Tears started forming in my eyes.

"It's time."After several minutes he rose his voice.

I took a shaky breath.

He raised his right hand and a hooded guy placed a dagger on it.

"A dagger?Seriously?"Even in this situation, a chuckle escaped my mouth.

"Brave, Very brave."Miguel nodded in approval.

A tear escaped my eye.

So it was the end.

He reached for my hair and grabbed them with such force that  I let out a loud cry of pain.

As he was placing the dagger on my neck. My whole life went through my mind like a film.

Mom

Dad

Edwin

"Hello, I'm Edwin. Just shifted next door."

"I don't know if you feel that way about me...Uh..But I just wanna say, If you feel okay with this, Can we date?"  

  "Hey, I won't bite. I swear,"  

  "Why are you smiling like this?"  

  "I love you, Dove."  

  "Do you think you'll grant me the honor to take your 'Innocence'?"  

Edwin.

I closed my eyes so I could take a picture of him in my mind.

It's over. Everything's...

Suddenly I heard a loud bang and shouts.

I shot my eyes open.

"Leave her and fight me instead!"A voice boomed around the room.

It was strongly familiar. I couldn't see the speaker.

My mind has seriously stopped working. Who is the speaker?

"Oh, so you're here!"I heard Miguel say.

"Of course, Here for my love."

Edwin?

EDWIN??

"EDWIN?"I called.

"DOVE!"I heard footsteps and there he was. My love. Alive.

"Edwin...."Tears started running down my cheeks.

"Okay, love birds it's time."

"Hey...no...no.."I saw the hooded guys take out their guns.

"Edwin...They...they're behind you!"

Before he could turn and before I could see him dodge the guns someone kicked my chair.

As I made my way towards the hard ground a gunshot boomed around the room.

MY head hit the hard ground but I didn't feel anything.

Edwin.

I couldn't see him.

There was a great commotion in my surroundings. Shouts, Gunshots and the police sirens.

A thick liquid touched my cheeks and everything went blur.
