On the other hand, no! Isn't the ground supposed to be hard and cold? My subconscious mind pondered.
However, the ground I fell onto was strong, warm, and very much alive, as it wrapped its hand around me. I wish I could open my eyes to see what it was. Just as I was still brooding, I heard a familiar voice.
"There, there, you are fine now. Good job," it whispered and kissed me softly on the head.
Alex?
Then a loud gunshot, and after that, a loud bang followed by the screams enveloping the air.
'Sorry, mom, dad, I guess this is it.' I sighed and lost consciousness, completely.
**The Kova’s Mansion**
"Doc, how are they doing?" Alexander Kova asked, holding Sophie’s hand."Well, for starters, sir, your daughter is fine, just a few bruises and maybe shock, so the sedative I gave her will help relax her mind and body in no time

****Alexander sighed softly as he gazed at Sophie's pale complexion from the doorway. How he longed to see her radiant smile once more, even if it was accompanied by anger. He walked over and settled by Sophie's bedside, gently holding her hand. Her once-lively expression now appeared fragile and wan. Guilt consumed him, and he blamed himself for involving Sophie in this dangerous world of his. His heart ached as he thought of her bravery when she protected Natalie, even in her dire state.Alex didn't realize how deeply he was falling for her until the moment he saw her bleeding from the massive wound in her stomach and head. For a brief second, his heart raced with worry, and he couldn't even focus on his own daughter, who was being shot at. Instead, he found himself caring more for this stranger. Even now, when he should be looking after his own, he was here, yearning for her eyes to open.Gently, he touched her lips and grazed his finger along her pale cheek, sighing once more. "
LOVING A GANGSTER Chapter 31 – A Heart In Silence
Four long months had passed, and Sophie remained in a deep slumber, showing no signs of waking from the so-called coma. To escape the heavy reality of her unresponsive state, Alex threw himself into work, immersing his thoughts in tasks and responsibilities. The room that once held the light of the vibrant girl now seemed haunting, forcing him to stay away to avoid confronting the sight of her lifeless figure on his bed. The weight of her absence lingered in every corner, pushing him to find peace in the busyness of his daily routine, as if trying to drown out the silent echoes of hope that had begun to fade away. For the sake of Natalie, Alex was trying to hold on, but he doesn't know how much longer he can endure. His gaze was icy, so cold that hell itself would freeze as he glared down at the syndicate responsible for the turmoil in his heart. "How does it feel to have something this large pierces your body?" he questioned the man, his voice filled with a chilling resolve. As he

"Papa!" Michael exclaimed, pouncing on Alex the moment he entered the room. "Where have you been?" the little boy inquired with an innocent expression. "Oh, I went on a business trip, little man," Alex replied, weaving a clean lie. "I heard you were looking for me?" he added, settling down with Michael by his side. Nat sat close to him. "Do you want me to prepare something for you?" she questioned after observing her father's expression for a while. Forcing out a fake smile, Alex replied, "No, I'm not hungry." Nat sighed, reading him very well. "I miss her too, Dad," she suddenly confessed. "I mean, she is my only friend, and worse, she ended up like that because of me. Don't you think I'll feel more miserable than you?" she questioned. With a shocked expression, he asked Nat with a poker face, "What are you talking about?" Just as she opened her mouth to explain, Rick rushed into the sitting room at full speed, panting as he stopped right in front of Alex. "Boss?" Rick called o
LOVING A GANGSTER Chapter 33 – The State of Denial
Later on, the doctor came in to check Sophie's conditions, but because she was tired, she slept in between the check-ups, and this made Alex fret a little. "What is this? I thought she was fully awake. Why is she going into a coma state again?" he questioned her in panic, his concern for her well-being clear in his voice. Sighing, the doctor reassured, “No need to panic, Alex. She is just sleeping.” Regaining his cold expression, Alex retorted, “Who says I was panicking?” he replied, glaring at him. Sensing the directed glare, “Right,” was all the doctor could come up with. “Anyway, looks like Miss Rust's condition has stabilized. Her system is getting used to the new blood, so all we have to do now is wait for her to fully recover,” he explained to him. “For that to help, once in a while, please take her out for a walk, and she needs to eat good food to keep the blood pumping,” he added. “She is safe now, right?” Alex inquired, his concern lingering in his words. Doc Drew turne
LOVING A GANGSTER Chapter 34 – Something is Changing
*** Instead of leaving, Natalie just stood there and kept on staring at me, “You were hitting the pillow,” she pointed out. Crap! “Your point?” I retorted, and she laughed. “Well, you looked too pissed to be killing some rat,” she said, “I mean, if there was one, you would not have missed it.” I turned to her, “How long were you standing there?” I asked, sensing she knew more than she was letting on. “Well, long enough to hear Something about desiring him and having your first kiss stolen,” she stated, and I cursed under my breath, “Are you going to tell me who that is?” she questioned. "Of course, why not… It's your father, idiot." Signing, “I think you heard wrong,” I lied. I was too much in pain to start arguing with anyone simply because I kissed a man, yeah, my best friend's father. Touchy. “No, I think I heard right,” she argued. “Seriously Nat, I’m the one that died and went to the afterlife and back. I should be the one spouting nonsense and not you.” I lied again, “Be

**** I observe Avanska with confusion. "What do you mean, 'a call from my parents'?" I inquire, "Why?" "What do you mean, why?" Rick responded instead: "Do you need a reason to receive a call from your own parents?" he asks, and I shoot him a sharp look. "Why don't you shut up and let the commander reply to me?" I snap at him. Shocked, he exclaimed, "You see what I'm saying, Avanska? She is..." "Enough, Rick," he yells at him, "Why are you whining like a dog?" he questions, clearly irritated. "What?" Sighing, Avanska turns toward me, "Sorry, actually, when you were still in a coma, the boss tried to reach your family," he explains. Frowning, I inquire, "Why?" "Because with your condition, no one expected you to survive, so the boss decided to contact your family and have them..." "Come for my corpse?" I questioned cutting him off. "What? No, that's not it at all. The boss would never..." "Okay, sure, whatever you say," I reply with a wide grin, cutting him off again, "Can
LOVING A GANGSTER Chapter 36 – The Birth of a Beast.
**** "Do you understand what I'm saying, Miss Rust?" Drew asked the little girl, who suddenly turned pale. "No, I don't," she snapped at him, "You're saying the blood that was supposed to save me destroyed my life?" she questioned him. Sighing, he replied, "Destroyed? Come on, Miss Rust, that's a little too harsh to say," he said, trying to calm the atmosphere. "Compared to other patients I have treated, you seem to be doing great and alive for that matter," he stated. "How is this great?" she asked him. "It's great because most of that patient died at the contact of the drugs, while others became murderers and are serving time in jail. Some were just killed on the spot," he explained with a smile. "When you started going in and out of consciousness, I knew something was wrong, but I didn't think of the drug then. I thought your body was finding it difficult to adjust to the new strong blood, not knowing that the drug finding its way into your nervous system was the issue," he sai
LOVING A GANGSTER Chapter 37 – Bounded By Fate
As Sophie slipped into unconsciousness, Alexander Kova crumpled to the ground, a heavy sigh escaping his lips. "Jesus," he breathed out, visibly shaken by the close call,Drew, wiping the blood from his nose, commented nonchalantly, "That was close."Infuriated, Alex shot back, "You think so?" He questioned Drew with a rage burning in his eyes as he rose to his feet. "What do you imagine would've happened if she had pulled the trigger?" he demanded, gently laying Sophie on the bed. "Did that thought even cross your mind?" he asked again, this time facing Drew directly."Relax, nothing happened, did it?" Drew asked casually, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone. "And besides, I didn't know you cared that much for me, Boss. I'm flattered," he added, his voice taking on a flirtatious note."Go fuck yourself, Drew. I don't give a damn about what happened to that lousy brain of yours, but rather what harm it would have done to her if she pulled the trigger," Alex snapped. He turned away from
