VALENTINE'S DAY Take me instead.
Ethan’s P.O.VMy eyes widened when I noticed the red liquid streaming from underneath the door, my eyes narrowed down at it, and then my mouth hung open. “Valentina…” I whispered to myself because I hadn’t heard her voice in the last two seconds, I reached my fingers to the floor, inspecting the liquid to confirm that it was truly blood. “Valentina!!” Her name escaped my lips in a terrified shriek and I got up immediately, leaning into the door trying to hear even the slightest movement from the other side of the door, but it was eerily quiet.“Valentina, if you can hear me please say something,” I yelled as I banged on the door even harder than the first time. “Valentina, are you hurt?”There was still nothing, I knew I needed to break down the door, because if the blood belonged to her, then it was terrible because she had lost a lot of them already. I took a few steps away from the door and kicked it a few times before it finally fell off its hinges.My heart fell at the sight o
VALENTINE'S DAY The plot of the book
Ethan’s P.O.V“Since you were the last person to witness Valentina’s last moment, did she tell you anything?” One of the private detectives the school had employed questioned me, I was seated in the waiting room of the hospital.Valentina had been confirmed dead by a medical practitioner about five minutes ago, she died due to exsanguination, and it was practically my fault.It could have been a different thing to say if I had given in to my original instinct of breaking down the door instead of conversing with her, If only I had called the emergency sooner, she would be alive, probably in shock but it was still better than being dead.“Mr. Lords…” The other detective called me, he clutched the jotter in his hands to his sides and he moved his other colleague to stand in front of me. “I understand you are grieving, and this is very difficult for you, but for the sake of the ongoing investigation, we need your statement.”The words bounced off the walls of my ears, I wasn’t in the stat
VALENTINE'S DAY Not the first time
Travis’s P.O.V“Are you ready to answer me?” Ethan asked me with a small frown, his eyes were glaring daggers at me, and the look on his face was beyond satisfying so I smirked in return.“I thought I had always stated my plans,” I answered even more confidently, and Ethan nodded as he neared me. “Yes,” He answered soberly, “Except for the fact that you were the one who stabbed Valentina.” My eyes widened for a bit, I didn’t know he would catch up on this so fast, so I burst into laughter, and Ethan’s face wrinkled up in irritation. “I told you once before that if I don’t have Valentina, no one else can, this is the plot of the book and it is only right we follow it.” I answered, gritting my teeth in frustration, “Even if I have to kill her myself, I would do anything to make sure she doesn’t end up with you.” The words barely left my lips when Ethan suddenly grabbed me by the collar of my jacket and swung his left fist at my face, it was too fast and too sudden, I didn’t h
VALENTINE'S DAY More than anyone
Ethan’s P.O.VI didn’t need anyone to tell me I could guess myself, Travis was testing me as well, I knew it by my instincts, Travis was even more lethal than that cowardly bastard.If there is anyone I could bargain with, it should be Guillotine himself.I climbed out of the stairwell, I wondered how to address this, we should save Valentina, if only Travis was willing to help me, God, I have an explosive headache right now.It was either Valentina or Travis, Getting Travis locked up for a crime that he committed might help me protect her, but if I turned Travis over, it may do more damage to the plot, hereby ruining the chances of her getting back. I was in a tight spot, I glanced at the palms of my hands, and indeed there was only one major palm line left, the smallest one at that, I had just thirty years left, if I could come to bargain with him, I could use half of it this time around.This was going to be my very last chance.“Ethan…” I froze as soon as I heard the familiar voic
VALENTINE'S DAY Too little time
Ethan’s P.O.V“So you don’t have much time left?” Nathan finally calmed down and we sat inside my car, he had finally gotten to understand me. “Then how do you intend to save Valentina, when you only have thirty years left? You could die.”“There must be something I could do to help,” He suggested his brows knitting in worry. “Why don’t I offer my lifeline this time around?”I paused for a while, that was true, but I don’t think a lifeline from someone who isn’t one of the main characters would be appreciated; however he is still a child, and I didn’t even know if he had much time.I could never allow him to do something like that.“No,” I concluded out loud and his face fell. “I can’t allow you to do something so dangerous.”“But Valentina is my sister.” He argued even further. “At this point you need help, and I am willing to give it a try.”“No.” I declared.“But why?” His tone fell at the end. “Why do you go so far for my sister? She doesn’t even trust you so well, but you are ris
VALENTINE'S DAY Switching roles
Ethan’s P.O.VA small gasp escaped my lips I forgot I was supposed to remove my current age from the palm line. If that was the case, then I have just nine years left, which was nearly insufficient. Now, what am I going to do? How was I going to convince him to let Valentina live?“You see how dumb you are, Ethan.” I could hear him cackle and cold sweat peeled from my forehead, I swallowed the lump that was starting to build up in my throat, nine years is less than half of the years I am trying to bargain with. “Now, what else do you have to give to me?”His menacing voice came back and once again I was speechless because I didn’t have any other thing to offer him, there was nothing I could give to him, but if he could make use of the nine years left for me then…“I would give my life in exchange for hers,” I answered confidently hoping that I wasn’t just making a fool out of myself, there was a long pause on the other end of the phone, and I could tell he was contemplating it, it see
VALENTINE'S DAY Mission success
Ethan’s P.O.VI was never the villain of the book, which means that should be Travis's initial role, the one who kills Valentina, the one who prevents the male lead from being with the female lead that was Travis's role. Since he had switched places with me, I am now the antagonist, I am the one stopping him from being with Valentina, but since he was an original villain, he chose to kill her instead.If he was able to transfer the responsibility for that night to me, then does that mean that he was the initial assailant? “About what happened on the night of the school trip,” I started eagerly, “Who was the one who assaulted Valentina and spread those videos? Since you are the author you should know.”He might refuse to tell me but I wanted to try asking as well.“Travis did.” He answered cautiously. “Travis was the one who assaulted Valentina and spread those videos to the school.”My breathing became shaky, and I froze for a bit, I could hardly believe it, Travis wasn’t the kind of
VALENTINE'S DAY NO
Valentina’s P.O.VThe pain in my sides woke me up, my eyes opened lazily, and my eyesight was hazy, still, I was wide awake because of the stinging pain in my sides. It felt as though I had just woken up from my longest dream. Someone had stabbed me amongst the crowd, it was a tall man in a black hoody, it was unfortunate but I didn’t see his face.I deserved it.Being the daughter of someone who took away something very precious to him, I understood that he wanted revenge and I bear him no grudge, and if at all anything I had wished he hit something vital so I could finally die in peace.Damn that Ethan to hell, I turned on my sides and he was sitting right there on the couch, his arms folded and his head lowered slightly, I couldn’t tell if he was sleeping or not, and I scoffed slightly angered by his presence.What right did he have to be here? After that nasty prank, he was the only one who knew about my father’s true identity, and I am pretty sure it was because he discussed it a
