Their Verena

I sat in the waiting area of the hospital with a bleeding shoulder, as I waited for my turn. A soft pout on my lips as I looked in my lap and played with my fingers.

I was on my way home from Café when a truck took a wrong turn, clearly breaking law and I swirled the wheels just in time other wise I would have been crushed along with my car. His truck hit the side of my car my window broke. And a shards of pieces went straight into my shoulder. Thankfully I covered my head and turned on the side just in time and didn’t hit my head or had any severe injury. The driver didn’t even stop once and sped away.i didn’t tell dad or else he would have tracked him down and handed him to police. I didn’t want a fuss so, I let it go. Also, I didn’t want to worry my dad. He was at home today and took a break from the Café we owned. So I was the manager for today and I was exhausted. I sighed. I looked up when a nurse with her cleavage full on show, reached me.

“miss Verena, our CEOs will examine your injury. Their office is at the top floor.” She looked me up and down and more like spat at me. I opened my lips to ask why? And whether the doctors were available or not. But she gave me a snarl and glared at me. And continued walking forth. I frowned but shrugged her off.

I got up and made way to the elevator. I got in and pressed for the top floor. I stepped out as I reached there and made way towards the front desk. There was Noone there. I looked around. It was more like a personal condo of a billionaire. The high ceiling were decorated with Crystal chandeliers. The space decorated modernly with expensive furniture. And the place and floor was huge. As far as my eyes reached. I made way towards a direction and sighed as I saw someone. She was the personal assistant. She had just exited a room with a sour look on her face. Her cleavage was on show. She looked up at me and gave me a disgusted look. Looking me up and down. I opened my mouth to ask her the direction of the office of the CEOs. She rolled her eyes at me and pointed towards the room she just left from. I smiled at her and was about to thank her when she nudged my wounded shoulder and continued walking. Her heels ticking on the floor and ringing through all over the quiet place.

A hiss fell from my lips and I grabbed my shoulder. Placing my hand on the wall and trying to take deep breaths. I blinked away the tears and straightened my back and made way towards the office. I knocked on the door lightly.

“come in.” a deep husky voice resonated from inside the room and I slowly pushed the door open and stepped in. I closed it behind me and turned around. Two muscular men, dressed in all black greeted with as they stated at me. Their face emotionless as took in my jeans and blouse clad form. They were twins. And you won’t be able to tell them apart unless you had a keen eye. The one who was sitting in front of the table had beautiful green eyes with specks of yellow. He had a laptop opened I front of him on his desk. It looked like they were watching something. The one who stood beside him with his bulging arms folded over his chest had beautiful green eyes with brown specks. They both had bulging physics and broad torso, they would easily tower over a regular man. They eat he’d me like hawks and I shifted uncomfortably under that gaze. Was it me or their eyes softened a little.

I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth as a searing hot pain shot from my shoulder. But held their stare. Their eyes shot towards my shoulder.

“Miss Verena. Take a seat” the one standing signaled towards the large sofa. His deep husky voice resonating through the space. He grabbed the supplies and made way towards me.

“thank you.” I whispered softly as I took a seat and smiled at them. I felt their eyes widened a little but they quickly covered within millisecond. But my keen eyes and sharp senses caught the change.

He sat beside me and took out the supplies. He looked at me expectantly and I breathed through my nose. I slowly slipped the blouse from over my shoulder. Thankfully it was black so you couldn’t see the blood that seeped into the clothes. I uncovered half of the wound.

His hands slowly rose up and towards my injured shoulder. He slowly slipped my blouse down as he kept eye contact with me the entire time. And stopped as soon as he had access to my wound. Not an inch lower. My chest and breasts were covered. It was on my shoulder and just a bit lower. Above my heart. I kept my hand on my blouse and above my heart. I felt another pair of eyes staring at me intently. Watching my every move. The twin’s eyes who sat beside me, traveled towards my wound and they widened slightly. He quickly recovered and looked towards his twin. He cleared his throat as he looked back at me and took out cotton and poured disinfectant on it.

“my name is Jarrel.” He spoke in his deep raw voice.

I felt a movement from the corner of my eyes and I saw as the other twin made way towards the sofa, taking long strides. He sat right beside me as Doctor Jarrel got ready to clean the wound. Green yellow eye twin’s knee grazed the side of my leg and I quickly pulled away. Shrinking myself. He looked towards his twin for a second but his intense gaze returned to mine the next moment.

“my name is Azriel.” His deep voice resonate in the room. “can you tell me how did it happen?” he added. His sharp eyes piercing into mine.

“I had...” My breath hitched as I felt my wound burning like fire. In a snap, I clutched Doctor Jarrel hand out of instinct. He froze. My eyes traveled from my wound to his. His piercing eyes stared into mine.

“sorry.” I whispered softly as released his hand quickly. I took a sharp inhale through my nose and clenched my teeth as another searing hot pain shot to my shoulder and traveled to my arm. I kept my eyes on the wound. I noticed him look towards Doctor Azriel.

“you had...?” I heard a deep voice from my other side. I looked towards him as I answered him.

“I had an accident.” I felt feather light touch on my wound as doctor Jarrel resumed cleaning it. I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth.

“can you explain the details?” he kept eye contact with me as he spoke. I inhaled as my shoulder burned and ached.

“I was on my way home when...” I gripped the sofa so tight and held in my groan of pain as I felt the large shard being pulled out of my wound. My eyes snapped towards my shoulder as he slowly pulled out the biggest shard with the tweezer. Blood oozed out. i tired my hardest not to flinch away. my grip on the sofa tightented. My eye sight blurring. i was loosing blood fast.

I felt my chin being grabbed firmly in a rough hand as Doctor Azriel slowly turned my head towards him.

“eyes on me kitten. Deep breaths.” His voice reached my ears. I clenched my eyes and jaw. my chest vibrated with a low groan as the next shard was being pulled out. He worked fast but gently. I felt hot blood oozed out of my wound and drip down. It was quickly cleaned before it could reach my chest.My head swirled and i tried to steady my breathing.

I heard a ripping noise and my eyes snapped open. I had gripped the sofa so tight that it’s material ripped. I felt my vision cloud with haze as I took quick deep breaths. I felt big hands take my hand into theirs and my eyes met green and yellow ones. I blinked as my vision cleared slightly.

“continue.” He murmured in his deep voice as I felt his thumb rubbing slow circles on top of my hand. I gulped in my tears as burning pain surrounded my shoulder again.

“I was on my way home when a truck took a wrong turn and it hit the side of my car. And drove away.” I whispered softly. My breath hitched and my grip on his hand tightened into a death grip as the small pieces of glass was pulled out quickly.

“did you see the number plate kitten?” I felt the top of my hand being caressed as he spoke unfazed by the deadly clutch of my hand.

“just the last one sweet pea.” Doctor Jarrel’s voice reached my ear as he pulled out the last piece. I flinched as he quickly placed large cotton on my wound and put pressure on it. His eyes met mine as my jaw clenched and a tear escaped my eye. I tried to move my shoulder away. I felt strong hand grip my chin gently as Doctor Azriel looked deep into my eyes and wiped the tear that escaped.

“yes.” And I told him the number plate of the truck.

“did the receptionist kept you waiting as you bled kitten?” he asked me in a calm voice but his nostrils flared. And I saw raw rage and fury flash in his eyes. I frowned at the nick name. But shrugged. I felt his shoulders stiffen and his muscles flexed. His breathing quickened. I tried to take my hand away from him. He breathed as his eyes met mine and I felt him calm down slightly.

My chest heaved as I felt more blood leak from my wound and my vision blurred. I felt it being cleaned quickly and the cotton being replaced again and again.

“did the assistant nudged your shoulder on the way here beautiful?” he asked me gently. His frown deepened as a tear fell from my eyes. pain in my shoulder becoming unbearable. I felt the room spinning. I quickly blinked to stabilize my vision. I looked into his eyes. His face so close to mine as he wiped the tears gently.

I was about to wipe my tears with my hand when a shriek tore through the room, tears fell from my eyes and I tried with my might to held in more shrieks if pain. My shoulder was on fire. I took shaky rapid breaths as I felt another sizzling hot pain in my shoulder as it was cleaned with disinfectant.

I was quickly pulled towards a hard chest as Doctor Azriel cupped the side of my head and caressed my face.

“shh sweet! It’s almost done.” His whisper reached my ears.

My chest heaved up and down harshly, increasing the burning hot pain and my head swirled. I barely felt anything on my shoulder now as it was going numb. Doctor Jarrel worked fast as he cleaned it gently. My other fist was clutching some soft material of a clothing. I felt my eyes droop low and my vision darkened.

“keep your eyes open sweet.” Deep voice reached my ears and I registered a slight panic in it as I felt my cheeks being taped rapidly but gently.

My eyes closed on their own and my breathing slowed down. I felt completely drained and out of energy. My fists slowly released their grip. And just before I fell into unconscious, I registered these furious voices.

“we’ll make them pay.” It was doctor Azriel.

“Every single one of the person who have hurt you.” Doctor Jarrel added.

Darkness swallowed me whole as I lost conscious and my body went completely still.
