When There Is Nothing Left But Love (Ashton And Scarlett)

“Have you finally reached your limit?” Supporting himself on his knees, Nathaniel bent down and leaned closer to me. He was smiling, but the smile did not reach his eyes. “Come, tell me—do you still love Ashton now?”

I swore I wanted to give it all up then, just as he wished. I wanted to scream to the world that I was done playing games and I could no longer care if Ashton insisted on walking toward his own doom.

However, the look in Nathaniel’s eyes sparked uncontrollable defiance within me. A voice in my head repeatedly reminded me that I was looking at a demon and not a man. The difference between them lay in the fact that a man knew how to show mercy while a demon didn’t, just like how a rat would never escape from the grasp of a cat.

Once the cat got tired of toying with it, certain death was the only fate that awaited the rat.

My gut feeling told me that if I admitted defeat now, none of us would survive.

At that moment, the call finally got through. A lady’s gentle voice rang out over the line. “Hello, this is the emergency services. How may I help you?”

With my phone in hand, I took a deep breath and ended the call. I got up to my feet and met Nathaniel’s puzzled gaze as I walked to Ashton’s side. Then, I lifted my heels, threw my arms around his neck, and gave him a kiss.
