LOVE THE WAY I AM

Chapter 32

★★JAYDEN★★

I rethink his words. He said Bella right? How come he knows her name is Bella? I call him back to ask but his phone is no longer reachable.
How come he knows Bella? I can here the running water, she's in the bathroom I think. I knock on the door. "Hey, come out... What do you want to eat?" I asked her. I can feel the presence of another, a shadow past me, I turn back to look at the surprisedly weird feelings I'm having. The Room seems normal. I turned back... Bella! Open up! What are you doing?" I asked her, nonoise can be heard.
"See if you don't open, I will break this door and see you naked" I said jokingly. Still no answer.
"Bella! Bella!" I hit the door do hard, before forcing it open, it's lock from the inside. I forced the knob till it broke before hitting my shoulder continuously on the door till it opened. She's lying in the bathtub. Tape tied to her arms, and legs. her eyes are close, she's drowned in the water. I rushed to her. "Bella...?? Bella??, is this a joke?" I lifted her up and took her to the bed, she's wet. I don't think of how she got in this condition. I started mouth to mouth resuscitation on her.
I turned her head to the side, allowing any water to drain from her mouth and nose. Then turn the head back to the center.
Begin mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on land, Strongly breathe four times into her mouth and pinch her nose to help air pass through. She didnt respond... I repeated the process till she started coughing out water.
She opened her eyes "help! Help!!" She yelled. I hug her wet body so tight "don't worry, don't worry, you're alright" She yelled "look ba-" Before she Could complete her word, I was hit at the back of my head. So much pain I feel. I held my head and slowly turned back, a man in black. He brought out a dagger. I can't let him harm both of us. I felt a lot of pain in my head blood in my hand before holding his hand so hard. I bent his hand to his back and twisted it... "Who sent you?! Who?!! Tell me!!!" He was quiet, i punched his cheek then collected the dagger from his hand and hear Bella shouting. "Help me!! Mr Richards!!!." I turn to My back, the presence of another man in the room. He hold a knife in her neck. "Move back!! " he shout at me.
I move back... I'm quiet, looking at both mask men. Trying to figure out who sent them. Bella's eyes are fixed on me, pitiful emotion filled in her eyes. Questions I have to answer, I can see from both eyes. He was about to slit her throat with his knife, I rushed to him like a fool, I rather die than let them touch her. I kicked the knife from his hand. The other rushed to stab me and I pulled Bella, he stabbed his second in the chest. He was trying to speak but could not. The first turned to me with fury in his eyes... "My brother!!! You made me kill my brother!" He's voice is so familiar. He rushed to me and cut my arm a bit. I pulled the knife and slitted his throat before he could do anything. Bella was behind me, her hands in her mouth. She slipped slowly and fell lifeless on the floor. "Bella, Bella? Wake up." I lifted her up and run out of the room with her, calling out loud as i did. "Someone help! Anyone!!" The reception was in confusion. She's lying on the bed, I went out of the room to talk to the police, explaining all that happen to them detailed leaving her in the care of the nurse.
After that, I went back and called Gabriel, "get some to check out what happened tonight for me. And make sure to settle all scores!" My voice more husky.
She's still lying lifeless, eyes closed. I called my Mom "hello Mom, I will come home tonight Ok... Please prepare." I realized I can't ho back home. The person who planned all these must be watching us closely. In a moment, three bodyguards arrived. "Sir, we're here." They answered almost at the same time. "Watch her closely" I say and walk out of the room. I can't let the person who try to kill both of us go freely. They have to know, I'm calm, not dead.
