UNTIL I MET YOU : CHAPTER 241 – 250
“I once had a daughter. Thought I lost her, but I got her back.”
“You had a daughter? Sin, you couldn’t even tell me? Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I’m sorry. Thought she was dead, and I don’t wanna talk about it. It’s like bringing back painful memories,” I say, and she nods.
“Who’s she?”
“Her name’s Ariel.”
“Ariel? Sin, you have a daughter?” Sasha asks from nowhere as she shuts the door.
“I have told you several times to always knock, Sasha,” I scold her.
“I’m sorry. Was passing by and I heard the loudest shocker of my life. A daughter? Is she prettier than me?” Sasha asks. She’s a psycho.
I ignore her and look at Aisha.
“When is she coming?” Aisha asks.
“Weekend, hopefully.”
Aisha smiles and kisses my cheek.
“We’ll be waiting for her then.” She gets up from my desk and drags Sasha out.
My heart leaps to my feet, and for once, I wish I hadn’t gone out to party. My shoulder hurts, and the glass is still pierced against my skin. Alexa is also held at gunpoint. She clutches her ribs as she whimpers silently.
I see six other guys pointing their guns at us, all looking ruthless and emotionless.
“You don’t have to fuckin’ do this…” Alexa hisses in pain.
“Do what, really? Shoot your brains out? You know, most times, I actually wonder why the fuck Vladimir picked an interest in you,” he says through clenched teeth.
“Why don’t you just go after Gray? Why come after me? You don’t have to get away with everything you do, Moskov,” I say.
“Bitch, he likes you. And killing you is like killing him emotionally. Now move your dumbass,” he commands and pushes my head with his gun.
I refuse to move, but he angrily pierces the glass deeper into my skin. I shriek in pain and shudder.
“Are you gonna fuckin’ move or not?” he yells.
“Don’t fuckin’ touch me,” Alexa warns the gunman, and he aggressively punches her already broken rib.
She falls down and coughs violently. I turn to run to her, but Moskov holds me back. The gunman squats to grab Alexa’s arm. I see her pull out the gun from the man’s belt and shoot him.
Gunshots erupt from every corner, and I’m tossed onto the ground. I hiss in pain as I hold my shoulder. I look up and see every single mobster dead—and Alexa was shot in the leg.
“Oh my God. Alexa!” I try to sit up to help her, but Reid squats close to her. No way.
Someone grabs my waist and pulls me to my feet.
“Gray?” I call out in surprise.
He looks pissed, and worse—angry. He ignores me and grabs my wrist as we start walking.
“Moskov ran away,” Reid mutters.
“I’ll find him.”
Reid lifts Alexa in his arms, carrying her bridal style, and they follow behind. I look back at the dead mobsters, and Moskov is truly missing.
“Gray, I can explain…” I tell him.
He ignores me and opens the driver’s side door for me to enter.
“Gray, it’s not what you think,” I protest.
“Get the fuck in, Ariel,” he commands through clenched teeth.
Reid places Alexa in the backseat and enters, shutting the door. I sigh and slide into Gray’s car. He slams the door violently before rounding the car and getting into the driver’s seat. He ignites the engine and drives onto the street.
I look at Alexa through the rearview mirror as she gives me a sick smile. She was shot in the leg, and she’s obviously bleeding.
I caused this. I got her shot, and it was all my fault.
“My car is still at the club,” I say out of the blue.
I hear Reid huff at the back as he looks out the window. Gray doesn’t say a word to me until we reach his house.
He halts the car in his garage, and Reid hurries out to carry Alexa inside. It’s rare for him to care about anyone other than Gray. That’s weird.
