Trapped by Seven Mafia Wolves novel Chapter 157

See You Again

3rd Person’s POV

No pulse.

No sound.

No heartbeat.

“Clear!“The doctor’s voice cuts through the ringing silence.

Aurora’s small body jerks upward from the bed–her limbs trembling, her chest rising just barely before she collapses back against the sheets.Nothing.

The air is too still. Too quiet.Luka’s breath breaks in his throat. He takes a step forward, but Matteo catches his arm. “Don’t,” Matteo mutters, though his voice is shaking. “Don’t get in their way Luka.

“But Luka’s eyes are wide, wild. “We’re losing her! The world around them feels heavy, like water closing in from all sides, hell–bent on drowning them: “Charge again,” the doctor orders. “Three, two, one–clear! “The defibrillator hums, electric light flashing—and suddenly–I don’t want to

die.

“One, two, three–clear! “I want to see my brothers again.

“Clear!“I want to live my life with them.

“Clear!“I’ve finally found my home.

“One, two, three–clear! “Don’t take it away.

“Clear!”

I don’t want to die!

“Final–clear!”

No…. I won’t die!

Aurora’s POV

The first thing I feel is weight.Not pain. Not fear.

Just the soft, heavy pull of my own body sinking into the mattress, like gravity finally remembered

1. me.

There’s a sound, too–steady and low.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

It’s rhythmic. Alive.

A heartbeat that isn’t mine–or maybe it is.My lasles flicker, the light too bright as I drag my eyes open. Everything burns for a second–the white of the celling, the sterile glow of machines—but slowly, the world begins to sharpen.

I’m in a hospital.

The air smells of faint flowers, like someone tried to make the room less cold. There’s an IV taped to my arm, thin lines running into my skin.

Every blink feels heavy. Slow.My chest tightens. I swallow, blinking fast, but the tears still come.Why do I have to cry so much? Why?I lift a trembling hand to wipe them away-

And then I freeze.

The movement sends fire shooting up my right shoulder.

A choked sound slips from my lips. I glance down–white bandages wrap all over the top of my shoulder, and through them I see… a bloody spot.

And just like that-

it hits me.

The sound of the gun.

The flash of fire.

Luka’s back in front of me.

And the pain tearing, burning – before everything went black.My breath stutters as the heart monitor quickens.

“Ouch-“I wince, clutching at the sheets, the memory slicing through me.My fingers brush the bandage again, and I can almost feel the bullet tear through me all over again – the heat, the helplessness, the way the world slipped away.

Tears spill before I can stop them. A quiet sob trembles out of me as I press my palm over my mouth, shaking.

The door opens.Luka steps in with a paper cup and tired frown that vanishes the moment he sees me sitting up.His eyes widen.

Everything he’s holding drops to the floor with a crash.

“Rora?” His voice cracks, disbelief breaking through it. “Holy shit–Rora-“He crosses the room

in seconds, his arms wrapping around me so carefully, as if I might break.

I can feel his chest shaking.He’s crying.Luka… is crying.

“You–You’re okay,” he manages, words broken between breaths. “You–god, you scared the shit out of us-“I sit still, unable to force my words out speak. Speak. Why can’t I speak?“I-,” I open my mouth, yet nothing else is able to come out after that. He just shakes his head, pulling back enough to cup my face. His eyes are red, glistening. Luka’s hands fall away, trembling as if even touching me feels dangerous now.

“I didn’t think-” His voice cracks, the words breaking off as his jaw tightens. “You weren’t
