022 The Whole Video

Sebastian’s POV

“Gab,” I pull his phone away, demanding. “I thought you want Scar to leave? Ava wants her gone.”

“I want her to leave YOU, not the city!” Gabriel fights me for his phone, “What if Ava needs her again?!”

My blood runs cold.

Is this really the Gab that I know? The popular homecoming king? The nice big brother that Ava always shows off? The friend who I thought could have my back?

When he sees a girl, his own baby sister, nothing but an emergency help for Ava?

A… blood vessel?

“Calm down,” I can’t help my tone dropping cold, handing him his phone, “it was three days ago. By the way, that actually was what the whole fuss was about.”

“Huh?” Gabriel calms down and blinks, seemingly surprised, “Ava told me it was something about mom…?”

Yeah. About how Anna lured Scar back.

“She hasn’t been talking about leaving for a long time now, ever since…” Gabriel glances at me, and immediately I realize the words he didn’t say-

Ever since I married her. I feel sick again.

“She has talked about leaving before?” I dodge the topic.

“Just some teenage rebellion,” Gabriel grumbles with a shrug, calming down, “but you need to let me know if she brings it up again, okay?”

“So you can report to Ava, like you just did?” I sneer at him. He rubs his hair with an awkward grin.

“I mean, we can’t really let her leave home, can we?” He huffs with a whine, “She’s ‘family‘.”

His air quote doesn’t say family. More like, a prisoner.

ever knew Gabriel saw Scar this way.

Code red… a phrase that is never something good. She didn’t mean Gabriel, did she?

Gabriel picks on her, sure, but usually for Ava when Scar crosses the line. And even that, Gabriel never really hurt Scarlett for real.

I’m not so sure now.

“What did you do to her this time?” I ask.

“What did I do?!” Gabriel frowns at me, “You didn’t see HER! Shouting at me with a broken glass in her hand like a fucking maniac!”

He rubs his shoulder, “Lily finally came once! I wouldn’t have broken my arm if it wasn’t for her!”

“For Scar? You left a hole in her neck, Gab,” I replace it hard to see his point once I started seeing things from Scar’s angle, “Don’t you know that Grey girl is Scar’s bestie? What did you expect?”

“Lily hates Scarlet!” Gabriel rolls his eyes, still huffing, “You didn’t know? They had a fall out five years ago and Lily doesn’t even talk about Scar now. I don’t know what got into her today…

That was not what it looked like when Lilith Grey left with Scar in her arms like some recovered treasure.

Lilith and Aurora, they have been Scar’s friends since forever. They care about Scar. And that’s why Scar laughs with them, and not me.

“What happened today?” I ask again. Gabriel dodges my eyes humming something about showing me a video later when he is done editing.

I can’t forget Adrian’s smirk when he brags about the text from Scar, calling HIM to help! I was in a gathering, with Adrian there, too. And his damn phone was in front of me when a text pops from “Scar“. Who gave him the right to call her that?! And why did she call him for help?!

And I had to get into a fight with Adrian to see a text of his, from MY wife!

I felt like a stupid high schooler.

I When I finally located her and came, she wasn’t even happy to see me. I guess I didn’t exactly save her,

I but I could tell she was much more relaxed when she saw me. She doesn’t even explain to me how she could beg another man for help, when that jerk happens to be my ONE true enemy.

I came here to take her home, and all she talks about is the damn divorce papers! Aren’t she afraid that I might just sign them for real?!

“Gab–bear here will never tell you, Sebastian. You are still so blind,” Right when I was lost in my own mind, Adrian’s voice rose next to me.

Did he fucking follow me?!

I glare at his damn smirk, and he waves his phone at me, “Beg me and I’ll show you, the WHOLE video.”
