Drowning In The Dark (Broken Heirs #1)

If You all are here.

Shaira smiled as she ran to her boyfriend. They had decided to do a long distance as Sebestian had decided to join other University. Sebestian didn't even take a second to lift her up from the ground making Shaira swoon at him.

"You are so good, cub."

"Not more than you, love."

Daniel and Sabrina also came and hugged her. Her eyes went on the floor when she saw Vanedestines coming straight towards her.

As soon as Dexton reached in her proximity. Sebestian stood in front of her. Dexton did not look at him as he pulled his hand out and forward it towards Shaira.

Shaira eyes furrowed but swiftly widen as she saw Dexton eyes moist. Shaira gave a reassurance look to her boyfriend as she stepped towards Dexton. Technically they don't have any relationship now but Shaira loved them. She loved them for a very long period of time.
As soon as Shaira clutched his hands. Dexton pulled her in a hug. Shaira didn't say anything as she rubbed his back.

"I love you and I will miss you, Ira. Congratulations."

"Can we all have a hug too?" Ezra said. His own eyes became moist as he put on a smile. They had lost her. He knew it the day she pulled out that papers but he was sure. He would make amends. Every one of his brothera was also trying. They had decided to become a better man so when Shaira decides to come back. They could cherrish her more.

Shaira smiled as she rushed into his arms. They felt like home. She realised that as soon as she went outside of that house.

"Dimples, that's not fair."

" I see, you can walk now."

"As good as new."

Shaira smiled as she went to hug Alkov. She was not in contact with them for two months but she had througly asked Mr. Sordo to help her getting some information about Alkov. He was alright.

"I will miss your snide remarks, Dimples."

"I could send you a list of them if you want to. Just to make you feel better."

Shaira smiled in his chest as she heard a clearing of throat. Maximus was standing far behind. His hands were behind his back. Although his tuxedo was prim and proper but his eyes showed nervousness. Shaira understood the assignment as she practically ran into him making Maximus disbalanced for a second.

"Oomph."

"Don't be so jittery around me, Max. You are one most handsome person I have ever seen. You look like a protector."

Shaira said as she hugged him tightly. Maximus eyes turned teary as he smiled. He will always love her. He didn't believe in God yet he prayed for the first time. If the gods are real, Please keep my sister safe, bring her back to them.

Shaira rubbed off the tear from Maximus cheek as she kissed it. Her eyes stuck when she saw Mr Aestus standing behind all of them. His eyes grim yet a uncanny softness was still there.

"You didn't go?" She asked.

"Well a young lady asked me to man up. I hope I am doing it right."

Mr. Aestus smiled making Shaira laugh.

"If he keep her loved ones safe and happy, then he is doing it right."

"Have a great life, kid. Even I know, you would never want it but I still invite to come to Vanedestine estate. This time, with all the respect and love you deserve. I would always love to have a daughter like you.No matter what you do in your life, always remember you have a home behind."

"Thankyou Mr. Aestus."

Everyone eyes widen as they stuck on both of them. Noone has ever seeen Mr. Aestus smile. Not in his outer circle but today was different. He didn't ran away from emotions that day.

Shaira saw new beginning that day. Her heart which was once hollow was full. She had never dreamed of having so many people to love her. She will be all of them proud.

Shaira Angelina Vanedestine was never her weak part. It was her identity. It was the most strongest trait she had ever possessed.

That night, Shaira bid farewell to Vanedestines. She didn't let her fall a single tear. Her eyes were showing ray of  shine like never before.

If one wants freedom, they need to strive for it because that's the only thing in this world -which never comes free.
