#Book 2 Chapter 33
It happened very fast…
Keian tried to turn the car to the left, but the car was too close to us, so he just let go of the steering wheel and went to me.
He hugged me tightly and used himself as protection for any danger.
I felt how the car crashed near the window.
Windows were shattered, and I felt pain. Pain all over my body. I closed my eyes and tightly gripped Keian’s arm.
*crash* It seems like we also hit a tree because I felt a strong impact again.
Blood dripped to my cheeks, and I realized it’s not mine. It’s Keian’s.
Even though I can’t hear anything, I opened my eyes and looked at the side.
I saw the car drive away from us and return to the road.
I didn’t know what to do because of shock.
I heard the sound of an engine and saw a fast motor follow the car.
I hope that’s Zeke…
I gasped and held my stomach.
With wide eyes, I also looked at Keian.
His hold on me is not that strong anymore, and his eyes are just closed.
I caressed his cheeks with shaky hands.
” K-Kei!” His face is full of blood. It looks like his head was hit.
” Keian!” I called to him again while weakly slapping his cheeks.
My heartbeat went even faster when I noticed the smell of gasoline.
And I know that the car we’re in might blow up any minute.
Biting my lips, I try to think of what I should do.
I leaned Keian on the passenger seat first, then opened the destroyed door at my side and weakly got out.
I pulled Keian out since I can’t carry him.
I quickly dragged his body on the road, away from the car.
” Keian!!!” I shouted again, hoping he would wake up.
” Boom!” I let go of Keian and sat down on the cement road when the car exploded in which the two of us were there a while ago.
With a heavy heart, I looked at the burning car then focused my attention on Keian.
I feel his pulse, his heart is still beating, but it’s weak.
It’s like there’s a lump on my throat while I’m examining Keian.
” Keiranz! Wake up!” I looked at our surroundings, and there’s no one here.
This also one of the roads that no one really uses. There’s a lot of damaged roads in this place.
There are also no houses around and just rice fields.
With my breathing fast, I ripped a piece of cloth from my clothes and put it on Keian’s head because it’s where there is a lot of bleeding.
I got my cellphone from my pocket, but it’s destroyed.
” Baby, wake up, please…” I tearfully said to the unconscious Keian.
I checked his pulse again, and it’s slowly getting weaker and weaker.
” Keian…” I tried to move him, not knowing what to do.
Crying, I held my stomach when I felt pain there.
Sh8t.
No!
I looked in horror at my thighs.
No! Don’t! Not again!
I shivered when I saw blood on my legs.
I started panicking.
I don’t want… I don’t want to repeat what happened to me before.
God, no…
” Ah!” Biting my lips, I tightly gripped Keian’s clothes and endured the pain from my lower body.
” No- mpphh,” I sobbed and leaned my head on Keian’s chest.
I don’t want to lose someone special to me again. Not my fiance and not my baby…
I pathetically cried while waiting for something to happen.
If I just can, I’ll run and find someone to help us, but I can’t.
” Hnggg” my eyes widened, and I looked at Keian.
He slowly opened his eyes, and his hands immediately went to his head.
” W-What?”
” Keian! Keian!” He looked at me, confused.
” N-Nass?” I moved to him and brought our faces closer.
” I’m glad baby, ohmyghad…” I held his nape and squeezed my face on his neck.
” Oh…” I groaned when I felt weakness and dizziness.
” Nass!”
It seems like Keian realized our situation and tried to sit up.
” Y-you’re bleeding…” I wasn’t able to answer him and just hugged Keian.
” N-nass! You’re bleeding! Our baby!!” Keian’s breathing is fast, and he is restless.
” K-Keian…”

Third Person’s POV
Fear is what Keian is feeling right now.
No fear for himself but fear for Nass and their child.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
‘ No… This can’t happen again!’
Is what’s on his mind.
Keian held Nass’s cheeks and looked at her face.
Her eyes are closed, but she’s still breathing.
He looked at Nass’s bloody legs again.
” I’ll get you to a hospital,” he said but didn’t get an answer.
Not minding the pain in his head, he slowly got up and carefully carried Nass to a piggyback.
” Don’t die…” Keian said. Not just to Nass but also to their child who is yet to see the world…
He started running. Towards the direction that he knows is where there is a lot of people.
Though feeling dizzy and tired, he still endured what he’s feeling.
His fear being dominant than his physical pain.
Just being able to bring his wife and daughter to the hospital is fine with him.
” R-Rider to Alpha! Are y-you oka–y?” Choppy, Keian heard on his earpiece.
” N-Nic, where are you?” Keian weakly asked.
” F—! Keian! T-Thank God you’re okay!” Keian clenched his fist and tried not to fall.
” Where the hell are you, Z-Zeke Nicolas!” He shouted, but it’s not anger you can hear in his tone, but sadness and fear.
” I’m chasing the car who hit yours. Blaze and Sniper are already going there!”
Keian’s vision blackened, and he sat down, being careful not to hurt Nass.
” I-I’m sorry, Keian…” He heard Nassandra said.
He felt relieved when he saw a car. A familiar car is driving to where he and Nass are.
Inside the car, he saw the worried faces of Devon and Dale.
Dale stopped the car he was driving. The two quickly got out and looked at Nass and Keian with wide eyes.
” K-Kei,” Dale said.
Keian ignored them and quickly put Nassandra in the backseat of the car.
” Let’s go to the hospital, now!” The two blinked repeatedly then quickly returned to the car.
” S-she’s going to lose her child ag—”
” Don’t f—ing continue what you’re about to say” Keian glared at Dale while he’s beside Nass.
” S-sorry… Uhhmmm. I’m going to call Theo and Katie. We’ll go to Zeke’s hospital, and they are already there.” Dale said sadly.
” Good. Just go there fast…” Keian felt weakness and leaned back on the seat.
” Kei!” Shouted by the two men with him.
” Just make sure, Nass and our baby will be alive…” His last words before he closed his eyes.
” F—! Devon, drive faster!” Dale shouted in panic.
” I know!” Devon just kept beeping to stop other cars on the road.
Dale called Theo and Katie so they can give attention when they reach the hospital.

Keian opened his eyes, and the bright emergency room greeted him.
His head is bandaged, and seemed like his other wounds were cleaned already.
He looked around, and the ER is quiet.
He’s the only one here…
” Where’s Nass!?” He sat up and immediately got dizzy.
A female nurse approached him.
” Sir, please don’t move yet—”
” Where’s my wife!?” Keian asked, angry. The nurse got scared and took a step back.
Keian got up from the bed.
” I-I don’t know.”
” What’s happening here?” Keian looked at Zeke, who entered the ER.
He was shocked to see Keian standing up and quickly walked to him.
” Kei! You should not—”
” I don’t f—ing care about my injuries! Where’s Nass, Nic?!” Keian grabbed Zeke’s collar.
Zeke’s eyes widened at Keian’s question, and he lowered his head.
” S-she…” Keian glowered.
” No! Where is she!?” He looked around again.
In one direction, there’s a lot of men in black clothes, guarding.
He knows them and knows that it’s his men.
He approached them, trembling, not minding Zeke, who’s trying to stop him.
In a delivery room, outside is where all of his friends are.
Others are sitting on the floor and looking at nothing. Others are crying, sobbing.
Keian shook his head.
” No…” All of them looked at him.
Some stood up properly.
” K-Kei,” Steven said.
With his jaw clenched, he entered the delivery room.
People inside were shocked when they saw Keian enter.
” Kei?” He looked at Theo, who’s wearing surgery clothes. He also saw Katie there.
But he’s just staring at the bed inside.
Where Nass is.
Tears from his eyes fell while walking to Nass.
Someone held his arm, so he looked at Theo.
His eyes are also red, obvious that he’s crying.
Theo shook his head.
” No!” Keian suddenly shouted.
Kei approached Nass’s body.
“Your baby is safe, Kei, she… just didn’t make it” he looked at Katie angrily.
” No! She’s not that weak!” He shouted.
Theo went to Keian to calm him.
” Have you done everything you can do!?” Theo lowered his head.
” We’ve been reviving her for 30 minutes Kei…” He went to Theo and looked into his eyes.
” Then try again…”
” Keiranz…” Katie said, who was stunned when he saw Kei’s face.
” Please, just try again. Just one more time…” His face is full of supplication.
The siblings are shocked because this is the first time they saw Keian like this.
” Kei!” They were even more stunned when Keian kneeled in front of Keian.
” Please…” Theo looked up and trying to stop his tears.
” Charge…”

That’s what they said is what happened to me, that I almost really died.
I fixed Kathriane’s growing hair and noticed that she already fell asleep.
My life is constantly getting into danger, but thank God that I didn’t eventually died.
I’m thankful for all the chances in life he gave me.
We found out who followed us that day. It’s one of Keian’s enemies.
I breathed deeply, returned Kathriane to her crib, and silently cried.
My two babies may wake up…
I still haven’t forgotten what happened four months ago.
Fortunately, Kathriane was born well. However, her body is very weak and needed to be observed carefully because she can die at any time.
She’s getting stronger. She’s now not always sick as before.
I bit my lips and curled my fists.
I covered my mouth so they won’t hear the sound of my crying.
I looked at Keian, who’s peacefully sleeping.
I just cried even more when I saw his handsome face.
I wasn’t able to do anything and left the room.
When the door closed, I sat on the floor with my hands still on my mound and still crying.
” Nass…?” I don’t know how long I’ve been crying, but I saw Keian got out of the room, looks like I woke him up.
” I-I’m sorry… I must’ve woke you up” Keian’s eyebrows furrowed when he saw that I’m crying.
” What happened? Are you hurt somewhere?” I gulped and shook my head, crying even more.
” It’s just unfair Keian… Why do they need to involve our daughter? If Kathriane wasn’t saved, I don’t know what I would do…” I said to him, sobbing.
Keian wiped my cheeks and brought our faces together.
” I know, Nass… But she’s now here with us. And she’s safe. So you don’t have to worry anymore. I’m the one who failed to protect you and our child. I’m sorry…”
” Keian…”
” Let’s just savor this moment, okay? You know it hurts me when you cry” I breathed deeply and hugged him.
” Yes, sorry,” Keian sighed and caressed my back.
” What happened…” We both looked at who said that.
It’s Katie, together with Zeke.
I wiped my tears and looked at them, confused.
” Why are you two here?” I asked.
Zeke scratched his head, and Katie looked away.
” Yoww!!!”
There’s a simultaneous ‘shh’ at the other side of Keian and me, so we looked there.
Steven is the one who said ‘yow’ while the ones who scolded him are Erick, Devon, Dale, Maxence, Clara, and Laiza.
I raised an eyebrow.
” What’s up?” Keian then asked.
They looked away and tried to find an answer.
” Uhmmm. We’re just roaming around,” Zeke said.
Keian and I both glared at him.
” You’re roaming around at 2 o’clock in the morning together in front of our room?” Keian said coldly.
They winced.
” Y-yes! Is it wrong to be together? We’re ghost hunting” I repeatedly blinked at what Steven said.
” You think I’ll believe that excuse?” Keian asked irritatedly.
” No!” Steven quickly said, and now the others are glaring at him.
” Just tell us why all of you are here” Clara sighed, and she’s the one who answered.
” Hay Kuya Kei, Kuya even persuaded me even though I have class later in the morning. They said they want to see Katriane” my mouth opened at what Clara said.
” At 2 o’clock in the morning?” I said.
” Well, we heard that you are still awake…” Dale answered.
” Katriane is so cute, you know?” Devon said.
” Yes, she’s so pretty” I looked at Katie.
” We’ll love taking care of her while the two of you sleep” I looked at Erick, shocked.
” Don’t worry. We’ll do everything for her” my mouth dropped when Maxence spoke.
” I guess she’s really cute,” Laiza then said.
Keian and I looked at each other and sighed together.
” Fine,” Keian said.
Others even said ‘yes’ then they approached the door.
” Just a minute” I stopped them from entering.
” What?” I smirked at Zeke.
” First, I’ll get a hug from each one of you,” they winced at me, but they formed a straight line in front of me.
