Truth But Bitter

Author Pov

“Please wake up Dylan.” Luna said silently sobbing and holding his hand slightly placing soft kisses on it. Dylan was laying on the hospital bed after a tragic incident.

All of this was Dylan and Hunter’s plan but they never thought that Cane will plant a bomb in the factory. And also Gabriel will get caught. Many things went by unplanned.

After the bomb blast both Luna and Hunter was froze in shock.

Tears were continuously falling from Luna’s eyes. Hunter was froze in his place for a second but soon he gathered himself together and without caring ran towards the burning building.

But before he could enter it he saw Dylan stumbling weakly with his bloody body still carrying unconscious Gabriel. Hunter immediately helped Dylan and Gabriel.

They came outside and Dylan instantly blacked out. Luna ran towards him and held him tightly. After a while ambulance came and helped them. James was the one who brought the ambulance.

Hunter entered the room and was baffled to see Luna still sitting beside Dylan. He was expecting her to get a treatment. Her lips were still bleeding. Her face was swollen and had print of fingers.

Hunter felt weird bleak feeling in his heart. He have no idea why but seeing her hand holding Dylan’s made him uncomfortable. But a bitter realization hit him hard.

She loves him.

She loves Dylan. Hunter always felt suspicious at the fact that Luna cared for Dylan too much. She even risk her life just to save him.

Hunter took few steps back exiting the room. He leaned on the wall beside the rooms door. He threw his head on the wall hearing few sobs from her..

He closed his eyes feeling tired and pessimistic. He wasn’t expecting her to fall for him nor he loves her which he is sure about it. But he felt a satisfying peace when he’s with her.

She gives him placidity.

From the day she came in his life. He felt calmness whenever he was around her. He know very well that why her eyes got his attention. Her eyes.

They remind him of her.

Those dark brown orbs gives him a hope. Hope that she’s still with him. He always felt peace considering Luna as her. But now he’s confused. Because he have realized that.

He likes Luna. Not because she reminds him of her but for what she is.

But no matter how much he try to accept her and try to love her. He can’t. His heart is already stolen by her. She owns it.

It’s bitter to accept but it’s indeed a truth. Truth and reality that his heart belongs to someone else and no matter how much he try. He can’t free himself from her ownership. This Hunter was hers. Is hers.

And will remain as hers.

He can’t forget her. She took away everything from him. She’s not here. But her memory and her those dazzling eyes will never leave him alone. Never.

He opened his eyes sighing and throwing a wistful smile at Luna who was still staring at Dylan’s unconscious body covered with bandages and IVs. He knows that she’s not his neither he’s her.

And he have decided that what he has to do to.

“Why are you doing this now. It’s killing me Dylan please wake up its already been 2 days. Please I beg you. I can’t accept that your here just because of me.” I said tearing up. It’s been two days but he’s still not awake.

Gabriel also didn’t wake up. But doctors said that Gabriel’s condition was bad but because he got no harm from fire that’s why they were able to treat him and he will wake up soon.

But Dylan. His condition worsened because of the blast. His whole body contains glass fragments. His arms and few parts of his body burnt badly in a blast.

He also got a severe injury on his head which caused his condition more critical. it’s been two days but I didn’t see Hunter neither I got a chance to contact him.

I know I don’t care about him but still no matter how much I despise him but he got a shot because of me and most importantly he’s my husband. I can’t kept on showing concern for Dylan. He must have seen me and I know he must be angry.

I stood up and placed a soft kiss on Dylan’s head whispering softly in his ear.

“Please wake up. I miss you.

I made my way towards Gabriel’s room but nurse stopped me saying that doctor is checking him. After a while doctor came out and looked at me with a smile.

“Miss Michael. Mr. Gabriel has woke up. You can meet him.

I looked at him in surprise and immediately went inside the room finding Gabriel slowly opening his eyes when he heard me entering the room.

A sense of relief flashed in his eyes before shooting me a small smile.

“H-Hello.” He said trying to sound strong. I sighed in relief before smiling a little at him.

“I am glad your okay. I definitely owe you one Gabriel.” He chuckled weakly and nodded.

“You should rest. You need some.” I stated after a few minutes of silence. I was about to walk out but he said something that I already expected.

“Can I meet her. Just for once.” I sucked on my own breath. I slowly turned only to find him in tears. His eyes were shinning with tears.. His face held nothing but regret. Guilt and sadness.

“I indeed owe you one Gabriel. But I can’t do this to her. She suffered enough I can’t.” I took a deep breath before continuing my words.

“I can’t put her in another dilemma once again. I am sorry.” I said trying to walk out but his next words left me in complete shock.

“I love her. I really love Melissa.

Hearing his words I instantly looked at him shock was clear on my face. Tears started to embrace his pale cheeks. His dry lips trembled.

“I realized late. But I regretted. I regret everything I did to her. Please just once. I don’t expect her forgiveness but I just want to beg for it. I want to pour out my whole heart in front of her. Please just for once.” I sighed before replying him

“Take a rest. Good bye Gabriel.” With that I heard him sighing. His head dropped down hopelessly. I walked out of the room.

My eyes got widened when i heard a nurse talking to the doctor. “Doctor Mr. Mathews is moving. I think he’s awake.” I immediately ran towards Dylan’s room and stood there.

He turned his face towards me. A small smile appeared on his face before saying that word which I was even though don’t want to but still was yearning and waiting desperately to hear.

"Princess.

The word she used to despise. Now to here it again her heart desperately waited for the one to say it. One she exclaimed to hate now successfully broke that cold wall which she built around her heart.
