"Romeo?"
Erin said in a soft voice as she saw Romeo.
"Erin, who is the man who came in here and harassed you?"Romeo asked her, his tone serious and his expression concerned.
"Uh...It's nothing…"Erin shrugged her shoulders and chuckled awkwardly.
Nathan said and went outside when he heard the man's authoritative voice, and Romeo was astonished to see him, and the two gentlemen are now staring at each other fiercely.
"It is me, why and who are you?"
"I am Romeo, I am sorry… I thought someone was here trying to harass our guest." Romeo said and lowered his head.
Erin was baffled as to why Romeo appeared uncomfortable, and he apologized to Nathan. Maybe it's attractive because of Nathan's attractiveness, therefore that's the reaction. "I'm sorry for bothering you two, Erin I gotta go, my boyfriend is waiting for me. Have fun guys!" Romeo said something that rendered them speechless.
"Well, that's Romeo…"
"I thought Romeo had Juliet…" Nathan said and they both chuckle.
Nathan became silent when they stopped laughing, like if something was bothering him, and he wanted to tell Erin what had happened.
"Nathan, what is it? I know you, Nathan! Do I have to know something?"
Nathan nodded slowly and took Erin's hands in his, tugging at her hand before looking into her eyes.
"You should know anything about your parents' death... I understand that this is not the appropriate moment to tell you this, but I am here to provide you with accurate information."
Erin was horrified by Nathan's words, but she was curious about the cause of her parent's deaths, she sighed and said "Let's go inside and talk about it, I wanted to know everything."
Erin's nerves were at an all-time high inside because of Nathan's stares at her; she already knew it was terrible news for her and she'd better prepare it for herself.
"We already know who planned everything and it's Luke, he did all of this because he was your psychopath stalker; do you remember the young guy who was assisting you with the stairs five years ago? He murdered that boy because he was envious, and when he realized you were destined to be my wife, he prepared to murder your parents and that tragic acciddent happened…"
She merely stares at him, her mouth slightly parted and unable to close because she was shocked by what Nathan said to her, she covered her mouth with her hand, as if the world were crumbling around her.
Nathan could hear her scream silently, choking with each breath she inhaled while clutching her pride. She stroked her fingers through her hair over and over again, hoping to soothe the quiet battle raging inside her head.
"And the worst part is that he paid Dianne two months ago to do horrible things to you so that our baby would be gone. I'm monitoring him right now, and I'm going to make him pay for what he did to us....I swear!" Nathan said with a deep agony and pain in his heart in his tone.
"How could he know I was pregnant at the time?" She wondered. Erin asks, her voice shaking with surprise and tears slowly running down her cheeks.
"Because he's your stalker, Erin; he's been following you around wherever you go, and he might be here in Spain because you're here...We need to be more careful now since he knows that he's the real culprit. Take your belongings now, we have to leave...my men are surrounding the area, perhaps Luke's shadow is watching us." Nathan said in an authoritative tone.
Erin was at a loss for what to do and, as if confused by what was going on, she simply grieved while recalling wonderful memories of her parents and unborn child.
She stomped her foot on the cold floor. Through clenched teeth, she hissed a breath. Even as she strained to stand, the strength deserted her. Her throat choked back a scream that was between a sob and a yell. She was carefully carried outdoors by a strong arm, and she even heard Nathan yell to his men saying, "Take her things!"
"Yes sir!"
When Erin and Nathan arrived at the safe house, Nathan held her fiercely and took her into his arms and she felt his every heartbeat and she is grateful that all this time, Nathan is with her no matter what happens.
While Nathan's men and James were occupied guarding the area, She said to Nathan a word that is really painful for her to say,
"Nathan... Luke should be imprisoned because I need justice; he can't die... until he pays for what he did to my parents and to our unborn child!!!" Erin exclaimed, her rage pulsing through her veins as she exhaled deeply.
Nathan says, gently stroking her back and arm, "Calm down...my love, we'll throw him in prison together... I am certain of it. The swat squad and police are on the lookout for him right now…" Nathan lifted up her chin and cupped her face. "So you need to stay here in the safe house, don't go out alone no matter what happens, I love you so much and I don't want anything bad to happen to you anytime soon, do you understand?"
Erin shook her head and wiped a tear from her cheeks as she remembered her family. "How is my family doing? Are they all right? Will Luke do them any harm?"
"Don't worry, Erin, they're safe now, I've done everything I can to ensure that they'll be safe no matter what happens. But, because you're Luke's target, I don't think he'll do anything stupid to them..." Nathan replied and hugged her again.
"I was with Luke in the Lake House. After all, his grandma was completely right. I should be cautious around him because he is a dangerous man. I apologize, Nathan, I should have listened to you...I was a fool for being so closed-minded."
"No, don't say that...you're perfect, and you have no idea who he is...so you can't possibly be wrong." Maybe you should take a rest right now..."
Because of Nathan's words, He took away her grief and made her feel safe in such a situation where they will be not sure how it will end.
"I love you ..."
"I love you too ..."
