The Varkas Brothers And Their Princess novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179

“Fuck!” Raines cursed, looking genuinely frustrated. “Why wouldn’t you fucking listen?!”

Through my bloodshot vision, I saw Belladonna running towards me, her eyes wide and tears running down

her face.

It seems she was screaming my name, but the ringing in my cars was too loud and everything sounded like I was underwater.

I couldn’t let the wounds heal…

With the bullets still inside, I might never walk again, but Belladonna… She came first.

“What are you doing here?” I asked as she knelt in front of me, grabbing my face and she was screaming and sobbing.

Was it that bad? I couldn’t feel anything. The adrenaline running through my veins was intense. But from the blood that was pouring out of me and the fact that I couldn’t stand meant it was bad.

“Oh, God,” she sobbed, cupping my face, but then her hands moved to my wounds and she applied pressure. “So much blood. God, so much blood.”

My wound was beginning to close, I could feel it. I couldn’t let that happen with the bullets still inside, and I also couldn’t take the bullets out like I did the first time. This was more serious than my thighs.

“Hey, hey,” I whispered, grabbing her nape and pressing her forehead to mine. “Look at me, I’m fine.”

She shook her head, her tears streaming down. “Don’t lie to me!”

“I’m not lying,” I assured her as my other hand moved down, and without thinking, I dug my hand into the wound, reopening it. I groaned deeply and Belladonna looked away from my eyes and down at my knees.

Her face grew green.

Fuck, I finally feel the pain.

“What the fuck do you think you’re doing?” she screamed, slapping my hand.

I said nothing, just breathing through my nose, trying not to throw up. I was getting dizzy, and my consciousness was slipping away.

I couldn’t let that happen now. Not until Belladonna was safe.

“Bella, I need you to listen to me. I need you to run.”

“I’m not leaving you!” she shouted and I snapped.

“Fucking listen!” I yelled, grabbing her shoulders, the blood on my hands staining her. “Get out of here. You’re the one in danger, not me. Leave.”

“Belladonna.”

She seems to have forgotten he was standing there, and when he called her name, she turned to Raines and her vision grew red.

“You,” she snarled, as she got to her feet, marching to him.

I cursed under my breath, trying to get on my feet, but it was useless.

I heard a weak whimper, and I turned to see Medea on the ground, her knee also bleeding. That’s right, she

was also shot.

Fuck. I couldn’t let her die on me.

“I don’t want to hurt you, Belladonna.”

I turned to Raines to see him standing still as Belladonna got to him and punched him hard in the face. He staggered back, holding his jaw. He looked back at her but he did nothing. Instead, he raised his gun, pointing it at me.

“He might heal incredibly fast,” he said, the gun pointed at me, his gaze fixed on Belladonna, “but I’m sure he can’t heal a bullet to the brain.”

I smelled Belladonna’s fear before I saw it. She turned slowly to me, her eyes wide and all her worries evident on her face.

“Don’t listen to him,” I said.

It hadn’t even been up to a day, and yet here I was, weak and helpless again. But this situation was more dangerous than the one with Medea. At least I know Belladonna could overpower Medea, but she couldn’t overpower a Colonel.

“I shouldn’t listen to him?” she asked in a small voice. “He has a gun pointed at your head and I shouldn’t

listen to him?”

“Belladonna-”

“Whatever you are,” she cut me off, “you can’t heal from a bullet to the head.”

“He’s not normal,” Raines muttered, almost absentmindedly, but none of us looked at him. “I knew it.”

“Belladonna, listen to me,” I said desperately, wishing for a miracle and I could just get on my feet, even if it was for a few minutes. I no longer cared about the wounds healing, because all my attention was on Belladonna, and on the situation and an outcome I could already see. “I’ll be fine. Trust me. But you won’t be.”

“Nobody can survive a bullet to the head,” Raines said.

I didn’t take my eyes off Belladonna. “Bella, please

She just stared at me with her bottom lip trembling, a fight going on in her eyes, and I knew she was considering it, so I pressed on.

“We’ll get out of this, Bella, but if you go with him, there won’t be a way.”

“Stop making this difficult, Kade,” Raines snarled, already getting impatient. “I really don’t want to kill anybody tonight, but if push comes to shove, then I will. Just come with me, Belladonna. And your husband

lives.”

The wound had already closed, sealing the bullets in, and blood had stopped coming out, but I’d lost a lot of blood and I was beginning to feel the effects; my consciousness was slipping away, and I could barely stay

awake.

“I’m sorry, Kade,” Belladonna whispered, and my heart dropped.

“No. Belladonna-”

“I can’t just stand still and watch you lose your life. Not again.”
