While the two stood talking to each other, a figure silently walked out of the shadows, staring coldly at their intertwined hands.
A wave of relief washed over him seeing her standing there unharmed. He had nearly lost his mind with worry, searching desperately for her.
Assistant Aaron had found out from the hotel security guard about a woman who claimed to know where his fiancee was. They had followed her trace to this location. Davian's expression hardened, his eyes narrowed dangerously looking at the man holding his beloveds hand.
"Love" He called out.
Nalani's attention was quickly attracted by the voice, turning her head to look for the source. She didn't know when Davian had silently arrived with a group of men.
"Love, you're here!" She cried out. She run into his warm embrace. She hugged him tightly, inhaling his sweet sandalwood scent, her heart finally calming down. The sight of her beloved, all the grievance and fear she felt in this ordeal all came crashing down. Her eyes reddened and tears fell like a broken dam.
She broke down crying. "Why are you only here now. Did you know that l nearly died. I was so scared" she cried pitifully, hitting him on the chest. Davian didn't fight back, holding her tightly in his embrace and apologising continously.
"I'm sorry for only arriving now" Davian said, gently wiping the tears off her face. The wind blows and Nalani shivered from the cold. Davian quickly removed his coat and covered her body with it.
Nalani felt the warmth envelope her, she smiled brightly at Davian. Tristan stood there leisurely with his hand tucked in his pocket, staring at the couple with an amused gaze, his thoughts unreadable. Holding his hand, Nalani dragged Davian to meet Tristan.
"Love, this is Mr Tristan. He's my savior". Nalani introduced. The two men stared down at each other with cold eyes. Davian cleared his throat and extended his hand to greet Tristan.
"Thank you for saving her". Tristan stared at the hand extended at him and then at Nalani standing beside Davian with a neutral expression, a small smile graced his lips. He also extended his hand to greet Davian.
"The pleasure is all mine. You've gotten such a great catch. I'm impressed"
Davian's eyes narrowed. He smiled sharply and turned to leave with Nalani in his arms.
"Love, my feet hurts" She said coquettishly. Davian didn't hesitate to swoop her into his arms, carrying her away. Nalani smiled, curled up in his arms and closed her eyes to sleep.
She was worn out by the day's ordeal. Watching their departing back with an interesting gaze, Tristan turned to his bodyguard Bobby and said, "Things are just starting to get really interesting"
At the hotel, Davian was standing at the window, watching the brightly lit city with a cold gaze, his thoughts deep and unreadable. Nalani came out of the bathroom to him lost in his thought.
"Love". She called out to him. Davian heard her sweet voice call out to him. He quickly turned to look at her and rushed over to help her sit down on the couch.
He gently applied medicine to her wounds and bruises. The sight of the fingerprints on her cheek as a result of the slap she got, Davian's eyes darkened, gritting his teeth in anger.
"I'm sorry " he mumbled an apology. His voice trembled. His expression riddled with guilt and self-blame.
Caressing his face gently, Nalani leaned in to kiss his entire face gently starting from his forehead to his two eyes, down to the tip of his nose. Kissed his two cheeks and finally settled on his thin, sexy lips. She perked them gently and smiled at him.
Her eyes full of love as she gaze charmingly at him, "I don't blame you. It really wasn't your fault and I'm happy that in the end you still came for me" She spoke softly.
"I was still later" he responded detectedly. Shhhhhh. Nalani placed her finger on his lips preventing him from saying anything again. Just then her stomach growled loudly startling them both. Nalani face turned red in embarrassment.
Her hand quickly covered her stomach. She was hungry. She hasn't eaten anything since her time of kidnapping to now. Davian smiled at her. He got up to bring her a trail of food that he had ordered earlier for her.
"I can't eat now. It's already so late" Nalani said. Looking at the clock on the wall, it was already 1:20 am.
"You haven't eaten anything all day. You should eat and take the medicines for it to work efficiently" Davian replied.
He took the broth and sat in front of her, deciding to feed her himself. "But I'll become fat if l eat late at night" Nalani grumbled. Davian looked at her slender figure and nodded, "It's good if you gain some more weight. I don't mind even if you become a fat pig. My love for you won't changed"
Nalani felt sweet at first hearing his words but she ended up scowling at him," Who are you calling a fat pig?"
"Myself. I am the fat pig. You're a beautiful fairy that has graced my world. Fairy, don'tbe angry with this lowly human" Davian quickly respond, feigning being remorseful and scared.
Nalani laughed happily at his comical and dramatic expression. He gently coaxed her into eating spoonful upon spoonful of the soup.
After taking the medicine, Nalani fell asleep in his embrace. Davian carried her to the bed and tucked her in. He stared intently at the angelic beauty sleeping peacefully for a long while, his eyes filled with possessiveness. Dressed in black clothing, he turned off the light and walking out of the room. Outside, Assistant Aaron was waiting for him. "Boss everything has been settled and waiting for your orders to proceed." he informed Davian.
Davian nodded and said coldly,"Take me there. I'll handle it myself" They got into a car and drove off.
