Rescued...
Kelly's POV
We were so excited while preparing our wedding. The excitement I felt now overpassed the excitement i felt when I first married him. But... the grand wedding we've been preparing won't be possible for now.
Standing in front of me was Pierce. I said I won't let the circumstances and our enemies affect the spin of our world. We will continue this life without getting affected by them, but looking at us now, I'd say we're badly affected. "I'll marry you again after all this mess," Pierce whispered.
I smiled at him. He held my hand so tight as we faced the judge in front of us. We decided to do a civil wedding for now. I actually told him that we can delay our wedding until this mess is over, but he said we can just get married again after the mess.
I feel suffocated. I feel like we're chained to the darkness and we're struggling to grasp the light. I'm tired of fighting and if this continues, I feel like I'm going to break down.
However, my heart feels light now. I have no regrets and guilt in it. After I watched the video my dad left to me, all the burdens, regrets, and guilt of losing him that way slowly vanished. I guess that is the reason why I couldn't forgive Klay even when he showed me that he regretted everything. It's because he owed me the peace and he gave it eventually.
My dad's video was taken maybe a few days before he helped me escape. He knew that would happen, and he sacrificed himself for me.
I can still feel the fear when I decide to watch the video on the flash drive. Swallowing hard, my hands trembled as I inserted the flash drive on Pierce's laptop. He was sitting on the hospital bed beside me. His hand was resting on my waist, comforting me.
"You can watch it when you're ready," Pierce whispered as he kissed my temple.
I took a deep sigh and bit my bottom lip. "I'll watch it now."
After I said those words, I ran the flash drive and found one video in it.
When I clicked it, my heart raced and tears pooled in the corner of my eyes. My father was smiling in the video. A genuine smile. A smile I'm missing every single day.
"Hello, my darling angel."
I gasped. He can talk...straight?
1 cupped my mouth. Why did he do that?
He sighed and shook his head. "I've recovered and I'm sorry that I didn't tell you. I... saw how you love Klay and I don't want to ruin your happiness because I'm hoping that he could make you happy the way you deserve..."
I felt my heart break into pieces.
"1...don't know what happened to you and Pierce. But if you're happy with Klay, even when he's evil to me, I'll accept him. I can see that he loves you genuinely. He won't hurt you. And I hope it will stay the same because if not...I will regret it really badly."
My lips trembled. "You are stupid, dad."
He laughed, "You'd probably think I'm stupid."
Rescued.
I chuckled as tears immediately rolled down my cheeks. Pierce's thumb reached my cheek and wiped the
tears on it.
"I'm sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn't entrust my daughter to an evil man no matter how deep his love is for

"Daddy..." I whispered. The child in me, still mourning and longing for a father, cried harder. I feel like I'm breaking into pieces. Why did I leave him behind?
He smiled more. "I know you're crying. Don't cry, my baby girl. Daddy is so proud of you for growing up so kind and beautiful."
I sobbed. I felt Pierce's hand now on my back, caressing me there.
"If you're watching this now...I'm probably in heaven with your mom..."
I sucked my breath. "I know you're happy with her."
"I'm sorry for leaving you behind, Kelly, my darling...
"I was the one who left you behind, dad," I cried.
"I wanted to be with your mom..."
My lips parted because of what he said. He..did he do that... purposely?
He wiped the tears that rolled down his cheeks as he smiled again. "I've been wanting to be with her but fought because I still want to see you and be with you. Feel your warm embrace. Feel your strong and warm love. Feel how a good daughter could make her dying old man happy..."
My tears rolled like a flowing river. I can't imagine his pain. I feel so bad.
"I lost you, Kelly. You didn't lose me. And I'm sorry that I left you. You made me happy but...there's a big hole in my heart that only being with your mother could fill."
"Did you...jump purposely?" I asked painfully even when I knew he couldn't hear me anymore.
"I want you to escape, my little girl. I know you love Klay but please don't be blind. Don't get blinded by his kindness. And Amanda, I did not love her the way I loved your mom. I tried loving her and Klay's mother.... but my immortal love for you mother won't let me. I feel bad for them, but I would choose you and your mom over and over again. So, please...run. Run and never look back, my little angel. Daddy will be fine. Find the happiness you deserve. Find the life you wanted. Don't feel guilty. Don't feel bad. I chose this. path and I'll be happy with the decision I made."
I sniffed and slowly nodded as I wiped my tears. Yes, dad. I will do what you say, I will be happy. "Goodbye, my sweetheart. Your face will be engraved in my soul and in another life, I hope I can be your father again. I promise...I won't mess up."
I sobbed again and nodded. "Goodbye, daddy. Be happy with mommy."
The video turned dark and ended completely but my tears won't stop from falling. Pierce's warm embrace was the one that calmed me down. It was heartbreaking to watch his video. He didn't say he will end his life and Klay told me Amanda pushed my dad off the window. I don't care anymore. I still want to punish Amanda for hurting my dad and stealing everything he worked hard on.
"Kelly Monroe, do you take Pierce Anderson as your loving husband? Do you promise to stay faithful to him? To be with him in sickness and in health? In richer or poorer? In happiness and sadness? Do you promise to love him the way he deserves to be loved? Rescyed....

I smiled as I came back to the beautiful happening in the present.
"I do," I said wholeheartedly and I can't believe how I witnessed Pierce's tears rolling down his cheeks as soon as he heard my answer.
He's happy that we're getting married and I know that I'm happier because he's here again and this time... he promised to not let me go again and I'll hold on to that. Forever.
Our wedding was so simple. We didn't invite anyone. It's just our family and friends but I'm not content because Emily's not here. I tried calling her but she's not answering.
I'm worried, but I worried even more when I received a call from Emily, saying she's in her condo and Matt is with her.
