Chapter 237. Prove It.
She scrabbled at his clothes, her fingers finding the hem of his shirt, pulling at it with a frantic urgency. “Saul.. Saul!" She chanted his name like a mantra as her mouth found his neck, her lips pressing against the warm skin there and her tongue tracing the line of his jaw with a feverishness that even surprised her.. She could taste the salt of his sweat, the faint hint of copper from the blood that still lingered on his skin, and she didn't care. She didn't care about any of it."I missed you," she breathed against his throat, her voice cracking. "I missed you so much, Saul. I need you. I need you."Saul's hands tightened on her hips, his dirty nails digging into the soft flesh there. He was trying to keep his composure, trying to hold onto the last threads of his control. But Kim could feel the tension in his body, the way he was trembling beneath her. She could feel the rapid beat of his heart against her chest, the way his breath was coming in short, ragged gasps."Kim,
Chapter 236. Reclaim.
Those dark, beautiful eyes. The color of rich earth after rain, deep and warm and filled with a love that made her heart ache. His almond-shaped eyes, framed by dark lashes that were wet with tears, stared back at her with a tenderness that made her breath catch.She traced the curve of his brow, the sharp angle of his jaw, the fullness of his lips. She cleared the tears from his cheeks, her thumb brushing away the wetness with a gentleness that surprised her.Kim's heart ached at the beauty of her husband. He was so familiar, so achingly familiar.All Hers.And she missed him. She missed him so much.Swallowing around the lump in her throat, she spoke, her voice barely above a whisper. "Living without you was like losing a limb," she said. "Like I was walking around with a part of myself missing, and I didn't know how to function anymore. I didn't know how to be me without you."Saul's face crumbled at her words. His eyes squeezed shut, and more tears spilled down his cheeks. He
Chapter 235. Retouch.
And then-Arms wrapped around her.Strong arms, firm and unyielding, pulling her back against a solid chest. “KIM!" the owner of the arms yelled in her ear, voice on the edge of desperate panic, “Calm down!" She screamed in response, a raw, jagged sound that tore from her throat and she struggled, her hands clawing at the arms that held her, her nails raking across strong forearms, her body thrashing against they're grip. She even bit down on his forearm, her teeth sinking into the fabric of the person's shirt, and she felt the muscle beneath tense but they didn't let go. He didn't even flinch."No!" she screamed, her voice raw and broken. "Let me go! Let me go!"But the person held her tighter, arms wrapped around her ribs like iron bands. "Shh," the person, a man…. Saul, murmured against her ear, his voice low and steady despite the chaos. "It's okay. It's okay. I've got you."But Kim didn't want to be held. She didn't want to be comforted. She wanted to run, to escape, to find
Chapter 234. Get Out.
She stopped, her breath hitching in her throat. She couldn't finish the sentence. The words were too heavy, too loaded with all the years of pain and longing and grief she had been carrying.Saul looked at her with such sadness that it made her heart ache. His eyes were wet, and there was a tremor in his hands that he couldn't quite hide. He looked at her like she was the most precious thing in the world, and the weight of that look was almost too much to bear."Kim," he said, his voice soft and broken. "I am not lying. I…. remember you. I remember everything about our wedding day. I remember..." He paused, his throat working. "I remember…. Jackie."The words hung in the air like a thunderclap, their echoes reverberating through the room, through Kim's chest, through every fiber of her being.(I remember. Everything. I remember…. you.)Kim stared at Saul, her vision blurring with tears she couldn't stop. The room felt like it was closing in on her, the walls pressing closer and clo
Chapter 233. Melted
Kim couldn't help but think that the last time Saul had been so... so gentle with her was when they were still happy. Before everything fell apart. Before…. Jack's prognosis.The thought hit her like a physical blow, and she felt the familiar ache settle into her chest like a chain wrapped around her heart. She could feel the grief pressing against the walls she had built around it, threatening to break through. If she let it out, she wouldn't be able to keep it together for her brother. She couldn't fall apart now, not when Leo was only just waking up.For now, her family needed her to be strong.So she pushed it down, shoving the memories back into the dark corners of her mind where she kept all the things she couldn't afford to feel. She forced a smile, her lips curving into something that she hoped looked natural.“Oh, " she said with a voice that was a bit too cherry to be real, “Thank you Saul. I appreciate it." She nodded at him, thinking that would smooth over the slight
Chapter 232. Flirt.
Kim felt her heart clench. "What's the good news?"Dr. Panel glanced at her tablet, scrolling through the data. "For now, he is very stable and his vitals are improving, and he's conscious, which is more than we expected at this stage." She paused, her expression turning serious. She lifted her head and leveled them with a sobering look as she continued, "The bad news is that he's still very weak." Motioning towards the man's prone body she said, “The muscle atrophy is significant, and there's some nerve damage that we'll need to monitor closely. It's going to take time….weeks, maybe months…for him to regain full mobility."Kim felt her grip tighten on Leo's hand. "But he will recover? Fully?"Dr. Panel hesitated, and that hesitation was enough to send a chill down Kim's spine. "Full recovery is possible," she said carefully. "But we don't know the full extent of what was done to him. The experiments-" She stopped, her eyes flicking to Leo, then back to Kim. "We'll need to run more t
