DESCOVERY 2

What's happening??

Everything is fine, but right now this has to remain a secret. Warned Leo. Everyone knows these two evil princes. Most people feared them because they spend most of their time together with Logan.

Understood!! Dave responded.

So how will I find out what I want to know?

Follow me, said Liam. I followed him through another corridor and he stopped in front of a door and then twisted the door knob then pushed it open. And there she was, sleeping in the same glamorous dress she wore to the event. She's indeed the epitome of beauty.

You can ask her what you want when she wakes up. Said, Leo.

What happened to her?

She's in shock. Logan's situation took a toll on her. No more questions if you want to stay longer. You ask her stuff that concerns just the two of you.

What's with all the protocols?

The lesser you know stuff the better. Said Leo, and Xifi just nodded.

Fine!

Siren stirs in her sleep and her eyes slowly flutter open, she quickly shuts them and gently opens them, she repeats this twice to adjust to the bright light.

Xi?

Siren!

What happened?

You passed out, don't stress yourself. Xi says trying to help her adjust to a comfortable sitting position.

Where I'm I?

Still in the hospital.

Logan, ... She says as she hastily attempts to leave the bed.

Calm down Nalani, you don't need to stress yourself, he'll be fine. Said, Liam.

I can't live without him Liam, I'll die!! She screamed as a tear rolled down her cheek. I need to see him.

Fine but finish with him first, Leo said feeling exhausted. That was when she realized another person was sitting in the room.

Dave who had been watching everything since she got up has connected a few dots already. This lady might be his believed dead sister, who seems to be in a relationship with Logan. It still didn't make any sense to him.

Dave?? She said a bit shocked by his presence. What are you doing here?

I need to know a few things...

Well now is not the time!! She fired catching him off guard.

Can all of you explain why you're all so furious??

Dave, I miss you but I really can't do this now, the man I love the most is lying helpless in there and it's all my fault. I couldn't keep him safe, I have handled many missions well, but with the one man I've loved, I couldn't even keep him safe. I don't need an elder brother right now Dave, I just need Logan. I said sobbing. I just need him to look at me and smile at me again, I'll die if anything happens to him. All the guys were now feeling helpless, this scene brought tears to their eyes, they'd seen how close Nalani and Logan grew within a very short period. It was heartbreaking to see her like this.

Nalani's voice trembled as she spoke, her eyes red and puffy from crying. The weight of guilt and despair seemed to crush her, and she could barely stand. She clung to the nearest wall, her fingers digging into the rough surface as if it was the only thing keeping her from falling apart.

"Dave, please," she begged, her voice cracking. "I can't do this without him. I can't...I can't lose him. He's the one person who's ever made me feel like I belong somewhere. He's my home, my family, my everything. And now...now he's lying there, hurt and helpless, because of me. I should have protected him, I should have been stronger, faster, better. But I wasn't. And now..."

Her words trailed off, and she buried her face in her hands, unable to go on. The room was silent except for the sound of her sobs, and the others looked on with aching hearts. They had never seen Nalani like this, so vulnerable, so broken. It was like watching a bird with a broken wing, unable to fly.

Logan was the one who always kept her grounded, and who gave her strength when she felt weak. And now he was the one who needed her, and she felt utterly powerless to help him. It was a cruel irony, a twisted joke of fate. And Nalani couldn't bear it. She couldn't bear the thought of losing him, of living in a world without him.

"I just need him," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "I need him to wake up and look at me again, to smile at me, to tell me that everything's going to be okay. I need him to be okay. Please, Dave, please leave me alone. I don't know what to do." Please take me to him because that's all I want now I pleaded. After staring at my helpless form, Liam and Leo led me to Logan's room as I entered my world shattered at this sight it hurts so much. Why should love hurt like this?

My heart was crumbling into pieces as I stood there, watching the love of my life lying helpless on that cold, sterile hospital bed. Machines beeped and buzzed, reminding me of the grim reality that he might not make it. And it was all my fault. I should've been able to protect him, to keep him safe from harm. But I couldn't even do that right.

My tears streamed down my face as I struggled to control my sobs. Dave, my elder brother, tried to comfort me with his words, but I didn't want to hear them I didn't need an elder brother telling me what to do or how to feel. All I needed was Logan.

Logan, with his infectious grin and warm embrace. Logan, who made me feel so alive, so loved. The thought of losing him made my heart feel like it was being ripped out of my chest. I couldn't bear the thought of never seeing him smile again, of never feeling his hand in mine.

The guys around us were visibly shaken, their eyes filled with tears as they saw just how devastated I was. They knew how much Logan meant to me, and they could see the pain etched onto my face. It was heart-wrenching to watch, and I couldn't help but feel like I was drowning in my grief.

All I wanted was for Logan to look at me again, to give me a sign that he was okay. But as I stood there, watching him fight for his life, I knew that it might not happen. And the thought of that made me want to curl up and die.

They will pay for this, ... All of them will pay for this with their lives Logan. I promise you!! Even if it means I'll shed my blood in the process, I will make them pay!! I promised him without voicing out my words.

What do you want to know? I asked my brother taking him by surprise.

Everything! He responds.

I took out time to narrate everything that I went through and what I've become without blinking, I just kept staring at Logan's face and when I finished he gave me a shocked look. I was the one who came home that day. Sorry I was kinda harsh on you, I just wasn't prepared to see you.

You hit me pretty hard you know, he mumbles.

You weren't expecting me to do it differently, were you?

Seriously?

Yes!

Liam and Leo, I need to talk to you both. Privately!!

Ok, they answered in unison.

We stepped out of the ward. Then she asked, "Who's in charge of the company?" She asked sternly. Something seemed to have changed she wasn't their Nalani anymore, and she isn't crying anymore, it's like a different being took over. Her moonlight grey eyes made her look scarier. We were caught in a trance. Answer me!! She repeated.
