Bound by Shadows
MY LOVE FOR YOU IS UNPREDICTABLE
Chapter - 001#
...Bella kaydenist was a therapist at a small hospital, hidden away from the chaos of the city. Her profession demanded distance – no attachments, no emotions. But fate said otherwise. She ended up falling in love with a patient, a dangerous one named Oliver deveron, a powerful mafia boss – a dangerous mistake she couldn't afford nor risk as well....
...Knowing she had crossed the line, she could never uncross, she made a decision but the decision she made wasn't to get together — instead she did the hardest decision of all: she resigned....
...She kept it a secret from everyone, especially him. She feared what her departure might trigger the storms buried deep within him....
...Quietly, she slipped her letter into a nurse's hand....
..."give this to him, after I'm gone" she murmured, heartbreaking. and without another word or second thought, she turned her back on everything – on him – and walked away with tearful eyes....
......
...That night, the house was silent, wrapped in an eerie stillness. Her room glowed dimly as she packed the last of her things, preparing for a new beginning in the city. She had made all arrangements – a new apartment, a new life, a chance to start over....
......
...Tired and thirsty, she wandered into the kitchen. The living room was swallowed in darkness. She reached for the light switch — and froze....
......
...Under the harsh glare , she saw him....
...Sitting at the kitchen table, waiting patiently for her....
......
...In his right hand, he clutches the letter she had left behind, the pages crumbled in his tight grip....
......
...“I'll visit once in 3 weeks...” he read aloud, voice low and trembling with fury, his eyes fuming with anger yet cold as ice....
...And in his left hand – a gun, cold and gleaming....
......
...Slowly, deliberately, he raised it....
...Pointed it straight at her...
...“Once in 3 weeks isn't enough” he muttered, voice barely human, seething. His eyes met hers, dark and unrecognizable. “i want more. Everyday day. Every minute. Every second”...
......
...She barely dared to breathe as he stood, towering over her, the gun unwavering in his hand. The barrel stared at her, a silent threat. And at that moment, she realized — she hadn't escaped him, she had only awakened something far, far worse....
...“what's the matter, sweetheart? you still wanna give up on me?” he spoke again, before she could speak he interrupts her, “are you still scared of me? thinking I'm not the person you've loved? wake up to reality, sweetheart, you belong to me in every way possible” he said in a harsh voice, “wherever you are, I'll always find you... no matter how far you go, sweetheart, I'm not letting you go — not yet” he pinned her against the wall, the gun pointed at her “don't you understand? I can't risk my life just for you... the risk is too expensive” she replied, “and you think you're doing it alone?” he said, lowering his gun and rub his thumb against her lips... “you're not alone, sweetheart, We're bound by the shadows”...
