Bedmates Soulmates novel Chapter 298

Austyn couldn’t deny it anymoreKira knew Gideon Garner

And they were more than just acquaintances

When Gideon was shot, Kira had rushed to him and held him in her arms

Her cries were heartrending 

She refused to leave Gideon’s side when he was taken to the hospital

Austyn was there in the police vand 

He watched Kira hold the man’s hand when a police officer administered first aid to Gideon 

Uncontrollable sobs wracked her body as she clung to Gideon’s hand

She didn’t even notice Austyn was there

Austyn closed his eyes

in her own injuries and his 

At the moment, his wife was four stories below, crying over another man, ignoring her 

Austyn gave a mocking smile, directed at himself. So they knew each other way back then. No wonder she refuses to leave his sideHe had been so, so stupid

At Least It’s Not The Morgue 

Damian sighed quietly. ‘Hey, don’t think that way. Gideon took a bullet for her. She’d be warried even if he were a stranger. If it weren’t for him, Kira could have died. Put yourself in her shoes. Wouldn’t you be grateful and concerned at the same time? Kira’s reaction is perfectly normal‘ 

Austyn looked away from Damian 

*Kira probably sees the man as a brother, Damian speculated. ‘Gamer stayed with the Hewitts for four years. Leland Hewitt sort of adopted him as a son

Damian patted Austyn’s shoulder, ‘Anyway, don’t overthink this. A lot has happened tonight. Everybody’s on edge, including you. Go home, have a good night’s rest, and when you’re more clearheaded in the morning, talk to Kira‘ 

Austyn said simply, It’s getting late. Don’t let me keep you.” 

Damian nodded, knowing his friend probably wanted to be left alone

Luca saw Damlan come out of the office. Wait for me.

They had to head back to the station for debriefing 

Luca said to Jesse, Keep an eye on Austyn, will you? And do something about the bruises on his face‘ 

Will do.Jesse nodded

Alter Luca and Damian lett, Jesse traipsed back into his office

Austyn was still standing in front of the window

The doctor scratched his head

Loca had briefed him on what happened tonight

He was wrong; it was worse than a cage fight 

Austyn could have died

Jesse squared his shoulders

He was determined to check on his friend’s injuries even if Austyn gave him the death stare

You don’t look so good, man, fesse ventured. Will you just let me take a look at your face?” 

There could be more injuries, less visible than the bruises and cuts and scrapes on Austyn’s Lace 

Jesse was worried about internal bleeding

Austyn would need an endoscopy and an Xray, the sooner the better

How are you feeling? Jesse plunged ahead despite Austyn’s silence. Do you feel dizzy? Any other part of your body hurts? How about your stomach? I should get you to the Austyn!! 

Austyn swayed on his feet, then he collapsed

The dog days of summer were gone

The sun was out, but its scorching power had waned

Green leaves rustled in a gentle morning breeze

The air was fresh and the flowers were booming

But no one at the hospital was in the mood to enjoy the scenery

Martin hurried back to the ICU, carrying coffee and ham & cheese sandwiches

Gideon had come out of surgery two hours ago

He was transferred from the operating room to intensive care 

Doctors said he had been lucky

The bullet missed his vital organs

The wound was through and through

If it had landed just a fraction of an inch to the left, it would have punctured the left ventricle of his heart and no amount of surgery could have saved him

Martin’s knees almost gave out when he heard this

Young Master had sneaked into the warehouse from the tunnel when he saw uniformed officers moving out

Martin followed him, worried

They’d come unarmed

Martin tried to stop him, but Gideon tossed 

Thinking of this, Martin sighed again

If only he’d been strong enough to pull Young Master back 

The doctors sald Gideon was not our of the woods yet

He’d lost too much blood and mast stay in the ICU for at least another werk

The surgery had lasted all night

Kira sat on a bench outside and never moved

Martin approached her slowly. Miss Hewitt, you should eat something.. 

If it were up to him, he’d want nothing to do with the woman who almost caused Gideon’s death, albeit indirectly

But Martin knew Gideon would be angry at him if he didn’t take care of Miss Hewitt 

Kira didn’t appear to have heard him

Her eyes were trained on the door of the ICU

The upper half of the door was a transparent glass panel 

She could see Gideon’s head and part of his body from here 

He was lying motionless in bed, with all sorts of tubes sticking out of his nose and mouth

There was almost no discernible rise and fall of his chest

Kira fastened her gaze on his face, willing him to open his eyes 

Martin sighed quietly

At least Young Master didn’t save an ingrate

Martin set down the paper bag on the bench next to Kira

He wasn’t in the mood for food, either

The two of them waited in silence

Loud and urgent footsteps came towards them

Martin, how’s Young Master doing? Gwen sounded out of breath 

Martin stood up. “Miss Reyes.” 

Gwen was a victim and material witness to the incident last night

Since she appeared to be unhurt, the police took her back to the station to take her statement

They would have taken kira too, but she refused to leave Gideon’s side and Captain Lura vouched for her

Gwen rushed straight to the hospital the moment she left the police station

She had been so anxious and so afraid 

What if Gideon didn’t pull through

But when she saw Martin outside the ICU, she was slightly
