Hellbound With You (WN)

Kai saw the shock on her face and he silently berated himself. But it was no use regretting now that the did was done. When he saw Abigail ’s name on her phone ’s screen, Kai immediately thought that Abigail must be calling Kelly to tell her about him. Kai was certain that by now, Alex already knew what had happened to his body, and knowing Alex, he would definitely tell his wife about it. And Abi would certainly tell everything to her best friend.

The thought that Kelly would hear about his self-destruction and his reduced lifespan made Kai ’s heart jumped with unease. He didn ’t want her to know. Not now. Because once this woman realized that she wasn ’t the only one in danger, Kai could already foresee her sending him away. She wouldn ’t ask him to stay with her anymore once she found out that he could harm himself and die in her arms. He knew she deserved to know, but Kai forced himself to believe that it was fine. It was fine for her not to know anything about it for now. He would give his everything within these two days. He would do everything to make her happy. No matter how momentary it was, Kai decided to make these two days a paradise for her, for them, before both of them finally jumped down to their very own kind of hells and live there for the rest of their lives.

”I ’ve met Abigail before I came here, ” he said calmly.

”Oh, ” was all Kelly uttered after the shock of the moment passed through her. Her eyes were still questioning as she eyed her phone in his hand.

”I think she ’s calling to tell you something unnecessary. ”

”Unnecessary? ” Kelly raised a brow, now looking at him with curiosity.

Kai stopped himself from looking around and just stared at her eyes. He didn ’t want her to suspect anything. He didn ’t want to ruin this moment because he knew this could be their last. ”She had barged in in my villa, and… she saw how messed up I am, ” he explained, carefully. ”I ’m certain she ’s calling to tell you how miserable I was when she saw me. ”

”And you don ’t want me to hear it? ”

”Yes. And if you answer your phone now, there ’s a possibility that Abigail might invite you out to speak with you personally. ”

”And you don ’t want that to happen? ”
