Becoming Mrs. Martin

My Savior

Austin's POV...

I am sitting outside an abandoned building now. I hid my car out of view and waited for a long time before slowly approaching the building. That is because I had to check the perimeters and the number of guys in there. I have to have plan and not be a suicidal i***t who will just bolt in without studying my enemies. I saw that there are only two guards at the entrance, and two guards on the second floor as well. But overall, they are 8 in total. Where's the other 4? I don't even have a g*n and my arm's hurt. Where the hell is Anthony and the police? I just put a hanky and tied up my necktie tightly on my wound to put pressure into it and lessen the bleeding. Doesn't matter. Good thing I trained so hard in karate and taekwondo for times like this. It was one of my hobbies whenever I feel bored. I was about to sneak in when I heard a man shout in pain upstairs. That's it! Like a ninja, I reached for one of the guards and knocked him down by twisting his neck. I took his g*n and shot his companion. As soon as they heard the gunshot, all of them came running towards the entrance.

"And the battle begins!" I said to myself and started firing.

A.E's POV...

"Aah!!!!!!!" he shouted and winced in pain after I stuck the fork on his thigh. I stood up and kicked him in his groin and he just collapsed to the floor.

That must have hurt a lot! No more babies for you in the future!

Then, I took his g*n and kick the other man coming from the door. Good thing I loved martial arts.

Yes, girl! Show them the real Mafia Queen!

I chuckled as I kick again the other guy and pinned him on the floor. I was about to tie those two guys together when I heard a gunshot.

Oh, my! My dad's so quick to respond.

How did he know I was here?

I ran out of the room and hid from view fast when I saw two more men ran downstairs. I followed them silently as gunshots were fired below. I was now hiding in a large drum downstairs trying to see what's going on.

And when I had a clear view, I think the world stop revolving around me. There, I saw the most handsome man in the whole universe. He's like the Greek God Aries, the God of War. The Almighty, fighting the evil ones. My heart fluttered and I felt butterflies in my stomach. Then, my heart beat faster, pounding hard on my chest.

Is this what they call 'Love at First Sight'?

I smiled like a fool and shook my head. I just stared at him like a lot puppy for a while. He seems to be a very good fighter. Not just a good fighter, he's very accurate with his shots. He just targets their arms or thighs.

I therefore conclude! He's a good guy!

And I think he's the guy for me!

What?!

I don't even know him!

Whatever! I'll definitely marry this man.

He's mine!

I wasn't kidding. I'll get him investigated because so far, he's met my standards. So I'll definitely marry him. Maybe I can just stay here and watch instead. Later on, all men are down groaning on the floor. He beat and beat and beat them. He just then took all of the guns from those guys and threw it all outside. He fought with bare hands after his accurate shots, kicking and punching till everyone's knocked down. He looked around, and then he saw me. He immediately ran towards me.

He's coming! He's coming!

Why does he have to be this handsome?

"Are you okay?" he asked worriedly and his eyes widen like he realized something. "You got a fork and a gun."

I was stunned for a while before going back to my senses and I nodded. He let me stand and checked on me to make sure that I am really okay. I was speechless to the point where I let go of my weapons.

He even smells so good!

I just stared at him blankly while he checks on me further. Then when he saw the bruises on my hands and feet, he cursed under his breath.

"Did they hurt you?" he asked again, gently rubbing the bruises on my wrists.

I shook my head and looked at his eyes. He's really worried and concerned. I blushed right away.

"Don't worry." he said and hugged me. "You're safe now."

Then that's my cue. I didn't even know I was just holding it all in. I let out all of my emotions, my fears and everything. I cried over his shoulders. Of course, I was still afraid.

After all, I'm still a pretty girl, right?

Thank God, I'm alive!

I won't die a virgin!

I won't die not having a boyfriend!

I now have my chance to experience my first kiss!

He rubbed my back for a while and I almost stumbled when we tried to walk. Maybe because I still feel a bit dizzy for whatever it is they let me smell in order to faint. And so he carried me outside. He was so fast that I didn't notice that we were already near a car.

He was about to open the door of the passenger side when I see a man in mask pointing a g*n towards me. It was the i***t boss who called my father a while back.

"Aah!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs when I saw him pull the trigger.

Then I heard a gunshot followed by another gunshot. I felt a stinging pain in my left arm as warm blood started to pour out. But it didn't end there, I heard another gunshot and everything went silent. I slowly opened my eyes and saw that I was shot in my left arm. No, I was not shot! The bullet just grazed my arm.

"Are you okay?" he asked worriedly.

And then I looked at the man who's holding me in his arms. His face is now a bit pale and his lips almost white. I nodded at him and he managed to let me sit inside the car.

"You're hurt." he said, looking at my wound.

He immediately tore a piece of my long dress and tied it up in my wound.

"Lets go." he said weakly.

But when he turned around and close the door, he suddenly collapse to the ground.

"OMG!" I gasp and went out to help him.

There I saw his bleeding arm with a necktie tied on it. I helped him stand up and he was holding something on his hip. It's also bleeding.

"You're shot!" I gasp and helped him sit down on the passenger seat instead. "Oh, my God!"

I hurriedly help him with the seat belt and closed the door. I rushed to the driver's side.

"Where's the key?!" I asked, panicking.

He pointed at the pocket of his jeans. He's so weak now.

"Please, don't you dare die in front of me!" I yelled as I see him almost closing his eyes.

He just chuckled softly while looking at me.

"I can't believe that I was meeting you this way." he says.

"Wait! What?! I don't understand!..and don't you dare laugh at me, Mister!" I hissed. "I know I look like a mess right now but I'm not ugly. Mind you, when you see me tomorrow..you'll soon realize that I am the most beautiful girl on this planet!!"

"Just drive." he said and smirked at me.

He's almost dying and he still have the guts to mock me!

Good thing, he's so very much handsome!

Or else!

I sighed and closed my eyes and took the keys out of his pocket. I started the car to drive as fast as I can.

"Don't sleep!!" I commanded as I see him getting weaker and weaker.

I began panicking again and trembling as I drive. Then I heard his phone ringing. He immediately took it out and passed it to me. I immediately answered.

"Boss, the police are here and they already took the criminals." the voice on the other line said. "But as I track your car, I see that your car is moving away from here. Mr. Adams is also here with the military but then we can't find his daugh-"

"Just shut up and follow the car! I'm taking your boss to the hospital!" I yelled back.

"Who's this?!" the voice asked, sounding surprised.

"Is that important?! I told you to just follow the car! Your boss is dying and if he dies because you are very slow in sending reinforcements, I'll fire you myself!" I growled over the phone. "Tell my dad to follow you as well!"

Then I hung up the phone and heard the man beside me, laughing.

"Why are you laughing?!" I asked sounding pissed.

"You're a strong woman, I see." he said weakly.

"I know. And please stop laughing. Dying is not funny at all." I commented. "We're almost there. Stay with me."

The hopes in my heart lit up as soon as I see the nearest hospital from a distance. I shift my eyes to see the man beside me as white as a bond paper.

"Hey! I told you not to die in front of me or else I'll kill you myself!!" I yelled, almost crying. "Please. Stay with me."

He just gave me a small smile as he seems to pass out.

No!

Then I immediately press on the cars horn producing a loud beeping sound. I stopped the car at the E.Rs entrance and immediately went to the passenger side. I opened the door and nurses with a stretcher came running from the E.R. bringing him inside.

"You better stay alive! Understand?!" I whispered to his ear before they take him away.

"He's been shot! Please! Save him!" I yelled as they rushed him to the operating room.

I was about to follow them there but one doctor stopped me and checked on me first. He also stitched my wound and gave me some prescriptions to avoid fever and wound infection. I rushed towards the operating room where they brought him and waited.

Why am I so worried?

I don't even know him!

But, he saved my life.

I sighed and closed my eyes. Then I heard footsteps running towards me.

"Are you okay, sweetie?" a familiar voice asked.

"Dad!" I yelled as I jumped on him, hugging him so tightly.

"Did they hurt you?" he asked, checking on me and his eyes darken when he saw my bandaged arm.

"It's not that big. Thanks to the man inside that room. He saved me." I said with tears in my eyes.

"Sweetie. I am very glad you're safe." he said embracing me again. I closed my eyes to enjoy his warm hug.

Then later on, more footsteps came running towards us.

"How's my son?" a middle-aged woman asked, crying. Probably in her 50's.

She was followed by a man in his 50's as well. And a pretty lady.

Probably his Mom and Dad.

And this girl, must be his girlfriend.

My heart was saddened knowing that my Savior is already taken. I sighed.

"The doctor's still not out, Ma'am." I answered politely.

"What happened?" the lady asked, crying, looking so worried.

She's really pretty.

I sighed again and told them the story. Their eyes widen every single time until I finished the story.

"I didn't even know how he managed to get there." I said and sighed. "I'm really sorry..because of me..he's in there."

"Oh, dear. It's not your fault." his Mom said and hugged me.

"He will be happy to see you safe." his dad added.

Then a man, also in his late twenties, approached us and nodded at me nervously.

"I am his assistant, Miss Adams." he said. "It's good to finally meet you."

"The one on the phone?" I ask for confirmation.

"Yes." he answered nervously.

I nodded at him and he swallowed hard. Then he sighed.

"Oh, boss must be very happy to meet you..and boss said you needed this. He doesn't know your size so he told me to buy 5 flats of different sizes." he said as he gave me a shopping bag. "He even said it should be black with a ribbon to match your dress."

"Oh. How did he know I needed this?" I ask as I look at my bare feet.

"Miss, he followed the car who took you immediately even though he was already shot on the arm and bleeding." he explained. "I was trying to stop him but I wasn't able to."

So, that's how he managed to be there.

The assistant continued his story as he told us about the instructions he received from his boss.

"That's true, sweetie." my dad said. "Without him informing about your location, we are still probably looking for you up to now."

This man is killing me with his kindness!

I wiped my tears and smiled slightly. I looked at the lady to see her smirking at me.

"I already like you." she said.

Is she?

My eyes widen as soon as I realize what she meant. Then she laughed.

"No, it's not what you think." she said. "What I mean is, I already like you for my brother."

Then my eyes widen even more. Hope jumping everywhere.

She's his sister!

I smiled warmly. I took out the flats and used the one with the right size. It's black with a tiny ribbon. I like it.

Perfect!

I didn't even remember I was running in my bare feet. I was just overly worried with a complete stranger.

A handsome stranger!

I was about to speak again when the doctor came out of the operating room. We all stood up and went to the doctor.

"He's safe now." he said. "Fortunately, the bullet in his hip missed his vital organs and the bullet in his arm missed his bone."

"Thank you, doctor." his Mom said as we all sighed. Relieved of what he said.

"Good morning." I greeted as I entered Austin's suite room.

Yeah, my Savior's name is Austin.

Austin James Martin.

"Good morning dear." his mom said and his dad nodded.

I placed the fruits that I brought on the bedside table.

"Is he doing okay?" I ask his mom.

"He had a slight fever last night. He chilled for a while but the fever goes down after they gave him medicine." his mom said. "We're still waiting for him to wake up."

I nodded sadly and stared at Austin. I sat down on the chair beside his bed. His face is still so white but so handsome.

How can someone be so handsome?

"I'll be very frank Mr. and Mrs. Martin." I commented on a serious tone. "Your son is very handsome."

They looked surprised at my frankness and then they laughed...I got worried.

Did I say something wrong?

"Don't worry, dear. We hear that a lot." Mrs. Martin said.

I sighed. But still, they didn't stop laughing.

"Don't come here saying..nonsense.." a weak voice commented.

Then I saw the pale faced man, who's currently lying on the hospital bed, smirking at me.

"You're awake!" I yelled and ran towards him, hugging him.

Hugging him?

OMG!

Why am I hugging him?

Then I automatically stood up and fixed my dress. He just chuckled softly.

"You okay, son?" his dad ask.

He nodded. And then his mom hugged him tightly.
