After Sleeping with My Childhood Prince, I Kicked Him Out from My World novel Chapter 104

Chapter 104

Miles, >>

Agony envelops my senses as searing pain makes itself known. The metallic scent of blood fills the air.

Who’s blood is that?

Mine?

Oh fuck.

I knew bullet–proof vests do little against assault rifles. My body goes limp in pain. A chaos is unfolding around me and I’m unable to comprehend what is happening. One would think it’s impossible to focus on something else in a situation like this.

But all I can remember is… I never introduced Avery to my mom. I cannot die before doing that. None of us can die.

A soft palm grabs my hand, and I look up. My sight is blurred, but I know it’s her. I strain to focus on her face. Her eyes are full of fear. I want to make her smile.

She shouldn’t get hurt. That’s when I realize I am on my stomach and she is far from safe. I push myself up to cover her with my body.

The harsh crack of gunfire echoes through the air, followed by a sharp voice, “Target is down.”

“Are you hurt?” She asks.

I am not sure.

I reach out to touch her cheek, my fingertips tracing the lines of her face.

“Mam, are you shot?” someone asks, and she shakes her head.

“No. I am fine.”

“Is he okay?” Someone asks.

“I- I don’t know. I think he missed the shot, but he fell down. I cannot see any blood apart from-” Avery’s voice is frantic while she pats my body.

I think she is safe now. I need to sleep for a while. I think to myself as I close my eyes.

<<. Avery. >>

Chapter 104

It was all confusing. Miles played along and acted as if it was some scene he was going to participate in. He was cool as a cucumber. Ethan, on the other hand, I don’t know what he was thinking. I guess he thought it would be nice if he got Miles into restraints without forcing him.

Then all of the sudden he snapped as if he saw something. Everything felt surreal out of a movie. He started yelling at Miles to remove his clothes. Maybe he felt Miles‘ confidence was a bad sign. He panicked and fired. I think it was an accidental shot because he wasn’t aiming.

I thought the bullet didn’t touch Miles. So why did he fall on the ground with sheer force? Why isn’t he moving?

“Miles, open your eyes. Please,” 1 say, but he doesn’t react. I glance around. The bullet holes are spread across the wall towards the ceiling.

“Was he shot?

No, no, no. Please tell me he wasn’t,” I say, trying to move and check him, but I’m still tied to one spot.

A man kneels in front of me and says, “Let me check him.” I blink and realize it’s a paramedic.

Were they prepared? Of course they were.

The moment shot was fired, Ethan fell on his knees too. I couldn’t understand it before, but now I can see he has been shot on his back. In fact, his body is riddled with bullets. But I don’t feel a fraction of emotion for him.

“Is he dead?” I ask with disdain. The paramedic attending Ethan glances at me but doesn’t answer.

This room is a mess. I don’t think this image can ever vanish from my head.

“Have some water,” someone offers me a bottle standing between me and Ethan. I accept it as he bends near me and says, “Let me uncuff you.”

“Was there a sniper outside? Who shot him?” I ask, tilting my head towards Ethan.

Officer nods as he frees my wrist. I wince as he rubs the impression marks for blood flow.

“Shot wasn’t clear, so it wasn’t our first choice. But when Miles fell on the ground, we had to act.”

“I’m glad you did. Although that single shot wasn’t enough.”

Ethan fired multiple rounds. A shiver passes down my spine at realization how easily we could’ve been killed.

“Our guess is he couldn’t pull his finger away from the trigger. That’s why this whole mess is here.” he says, glancing at the bullet holes in the wall.

When armed officers entered the room, they shot him a few more times. I hope he dies. I have never felt this hate at anyone before to wish for their death. But that’s what I wish for right now. If he survives, I will make sure he is thrown into prison for a very long time.

A paramedic near me says something, and my attention comes back to Miles.
