Avalorian_

A dark heart, tainted by pain and betrayal. 
He was the angel that brought color into her dull life—but also the devil who shattered heart after making it beat for him. 
Yet, just when she was starting to forget about him, he has the audacity to show up? 
... 

"How dare you come back?" She regarded the man before her with eyes full of spite. 


"Were you waiting for me?" He smiled at her, and her glare almost made him want to run for his life. 


"I wait for no one. What do you want?" She asked. 


"To win you back." He swallowed. "You and our son." 


She scoffed at his response. "Giving someone a second chance is like giving them another bullet after they missed their shot the first time. Have you not heard of this saying?"

He made a mistake, but he was willing to make up for it even if it took the rest of his life. However, time was proving that it was easier said than done

The Ultimate Chance

Mina had spent hours every day debating whether or not she should go back to Imperium.

She had missed Avery's entire pregnancy despite having wanted to be a part of it, and she didn't think that was her fault. After leaving the city, her body had become weaker and she'd needed to have a doctor hovering over her most of the time. In the end, the doctor moved into the apartment next door just in case.

For months, she'd thought about calling Gabe and telling him all about it. Once, she had even dialed his number but hung up as soon as he answered the call. She had been the one to leave. It wasn't fair to go crying to him when things got tough.

But she couldn't deny she felt something when she heard his voice, something she was not willing to face. For the rest of the term, she only accepted help from the doctor and the two had become fast friends. She'd even told her about why she was experiencing a troublesome experience on her own.
