(Love...•••In•••...Trouble)
______________
"It's Kenzie.... Kenzie isn't... talking to me... Dad Kenzie is not breathing!!!!!!!!" She cried madly, the phone slipping from her clammy palm to the ground.
"Kenzie!! Kenzie open your eyes! Kenzie wake up!! Kenzie!!!" She cried again, pulling his shirt in the front as her tears wet his face in droplets.
"Kenzie!!!!"
Almost immediately, Thiago's guards rushed into the tent, all armed.
They've actually been surrounding the sea unnoticed since Hazel and Kenzie came in the morning, protecting them at Thiago's orders.
They took Kenzie from Hazel, and she was crying so hard as she ran after them till they arrived at the car.
Kenzie was tucked in and taken away without waiting for an ambulance.

TORRANCE ESTATE, SECOND MANSION*
Anna's tears is currently flowing uncontrollably down her cheeks, and Hugo is sitting on one of the dinning chairs, looking paralyzed like he got stuck by lightning or something.
The rest of the guys are still so weak from crying so much, and Hope already joined the waterworks exercise too.
"I can't believe it, still" Anna stood, dipping her fingers in her hair.
"Why didn't he tell us? Why would he keep such to himself?" Hugo stood too.
"It was already past the treatable stage when he found out about it too, so there's nothing to be done" Miguel replied.
"And also, how would both know if he's fine when you never speak to him?" Natty said.
"What do you mean?" Anna retorted.
"Since we came back from school, you've never called him in for a talk anytime despite the fact that you're aware of his condition. You only see Lee, isn't it? I bet you aren't even aware of when he began growing affection for Hazel. He even travelled to Italy for a week but you never knew " Natty continued.
"What! When?" Hugo said, and Natty shook her head.
"You both are...gawd!"
"Is it because he's Georgia's son?" Eminem said.
"Don't say that again! I love him like my own son! He's my son! I love Kenzie so much but he shuts me down anytime I try to show him love" Anna replied.
"Show him love by touching his lips during his sleep?" Miguel said, and Lee gasped.
Anna held her breath.
"What are you talking about, Miguel?" Natty faced him.
"Ken told me about it, your excessive shower of affection is making him feel uncomfortable, which is why he's drawing lines. I thought it was normal, till he told me about how you touched his lips in his sleep" Miguel said, and Anna gulped again.
"Are you in love with your stepson?" Miguel raised his brows.
"What are you talking about!" Hugo spranged up.
"Stop accusing mum wrongly" Lee defended, and Miguel scoffed.
"I wouldn't harbour such thoughts, I'm not shameless" Anna said slowly.
"This ain't the time to argue, y'all. Can't you see the writing on the wall? Ken is dying! We're losing him! We won't see him anymore! He'd be buried!" Natty shouted, and the ringing of her phone interrupted her.
Immediately she saw Hazel's line, she quickly swiped green, and when she heard the sound of her cries, her heart nearly flew out of her chest.
"Girl, please tell me it's not what I'm thinking"
"Kenzie is not breathing! Doctors are trying to bring him back but it's not working!! He's not talking to me!! Why didn't you tell me about his cancer? Why didn't you tell me Natty!! How could this happen to me when our love is still so young!! How could this happen to me!!" She cried loudly on phone.
Natty ran out of words to say, so she cut the call and released a low exhale.
"What's going on?" Eminem and Hope asked at once.
"I think...I think we're already losing him. At the hospital... he's...
Before she could finish, Anna already rushed out of the house with Hugo, and the rest followed.

GREG A. HOSPITALS*
After several minutes of trying to save Kenzie in the ER, the doctors finally came out with tensed looks on their faces, led by Dr. Dora, the female head doctor.
"We were able to make him come back, but that's just for now" she said sadly.
"Wh..what do you mean?" Hazel hiccupped, and Dr. Dora came closer to touch her shoulder.
"Cheeks, you'd have to prepare your mind for the worse" she said.
"Dear" Thiago rushed in with Maria.
"Dad, dad I don't understand what she's saying" Hazel cried, and he wiped her tears first.
"How's he doing?" He asked the doctor.
"I'm so sorry Mr. Alejandro, but there's no hope. He has been surviving on oral medication for the past three years, and right now no amount of pills can help the state of his lungs anymore. To make matters worse, he's a smoker, and that's just... bad. Please, prepare your minds" the doctor said and took a bow before leaving with the rest.
"Dad...Mum...I can't lose him, i don't want to" Hazel cried hotly, and Maria hugged her teary face to her chest.
"This bastard kept it from everyone?" Thiago said.
"Trust me, no one knew about it at the estate" Maria replied, and he sighed.
Anna and Hugo rushed in with the rest, and Anna quickly wiped her tears before speaking.
"Where's Kenzie?"
Thiago didn't reply.
"He's... he's not gonna make it according to the doctor" Maria replied, and Anna held her head with her two hands.
"Kenzie.."
Eminem closed his eyes, and tears slid out, same with Natty.
Miguel folded his fists, and Lee's eyes are already red.
Hope was looking at Hazel pitifully.
Within one minute, grief descended on the hallway, and then Lord Steel came in too.
Immediately he saw the atmosphere, he stopped some meters away from them, staring at them from there.
"Something doesn't feel right" he muttered.
Miguel walked out of the hallway, and Hope followed him till they got to the end of it, then he turned to face her.
"I can leave if you don't want my company" she quickly said.
"It's fine" he replied, and they backed the wall together.
"I can't believe he's really... gonna die" she said slowly.
"Maybe because I've been preparing myself for this since I found out two months ago, i expected it, but still...it f+çking hurts" he replied, and she sighed.
"I know...I mean...he has been your friend even before you went to college together. Natty told me" Hope replied, and Miguel nodded once.
"I can't take it, I..."
He stopped talking and covered his eyes with his palms, crying into it.
Meanwhile, Natty is squatting by the other side of the wall alone, shedding tears too when Lee came to meet her.
She didn't even bat a lid as he squatted beside her.
"I can't believe we'll be wearing black to a funeral soon. I hate black, and I don't want to wear it...I don't want to bury my brother" He said.
She kept quiet.
"I was already dreaming of showing him off to my school girls next year in college...I can't..." He started crying too, burying his face in his knees.
Natty looked at him, and her tears only poured more.
Eminem is at the far end of the wall, sobbing alone.
Meanwhile, Anna is currently on her way to Georgia's ward.
She didn't wait for the nurses before barging in, and she met Georgia displaying madness, chained to her bed as usual.
She went straight for her and grabbed her neck, pressing it down to the mattress.
"You're the root cause of all these! You made him into what he is! You made him addicted to smokes at a young age! You ruined his life witch!! It's all your fault!!!!" She yelled.
Georgia was already seeing the other side of the universe when the nurses rushed in.
They were shocked beyond words as they began trying to take Georgia's neck from Anna's grip, but it was impossible.
Anna was determined to kill her once and for all.
Only the male doctors could take her away when they arrived, and by that time, Georgia already passed out with a swollen neck.
"No I need to kill her!! Let me kill her!!!" Anna was crying as she was dragged out.
*
11PM, KENZIE'S WARD*
Hazel's face is all puffy and swollen and red, even her throat.
She's sitting beside Kenzie's bed, looking like a widow as she stared at Kenzie's unmoving body in bed.
His face turned completely pale already, even his lips, and he looks horribly sick.
His monitor is barely beeping, and the transfusion of IV to his system has been stopped since his body didn't take it.
The only thing left right now is for the doctors to announce his demise anytime before daybreak.
Hazel is holding his right hand, and Prada, his loyal dog is sitting beside her, watching him sadly too.
"Do you know you're a betrayer?" Hazel said as if he's able to hear her.
"How could you change me this much and then decide to take your leave? I'm sure I did nothing to deserve this. Why are you so cruel to me? How could you tell me you love me yesterday and then decide to take your leave today? What do you want me to do? Kenzie..." She cried bitterly, rubbing his hand.
"How could you do this to me, douche? How could you...how could you do this to me?" She sobbed hotly, the lines streaming down her neck.
"Please open your eyes and talk to me...huh? Tell me you love me again... Kenzie... pl..ease" she sobbed, closing her eyes and hugging that hand.
"Don't leave me please...stay longer with me... please..." She cried harder when no move came from him, and then his monitor began irregular beeps, scaring her so much.
She spranged up from her seat.
"Kenzie...no you can't go completely! Kenzie!!" She shook him, and Dr. Dora came back in with her nurses.
"Take her out" she ordered, and two nurses grabbed her.
"No no please... please!! Kenzie!!!!" She screamed madly, struggling with them.
She tried biting, but she was overpowered and finally dragged out, though her screams could still be heard outside clearly.
Dr. Dora got a loaded injection from the tray of one of the nurses, and the moment she turned back to Kenzie, a devilish glint appeared in her eyes.
She smirked secretly, then she brought the syringe to Kenzie's wrist.
Immediately she took it and made to insert, Kenzie's eyes flew open, and she was caught off guard when he snatched the syringe from her and tossed her on the bed, sliding his hand on her neck.
She froze completely.
"Caught you, bîtch" he muttered, smirking wide.
FLASHBACK, ITALY ~ A WEEK AGO*
After passing out at the Alphas mansion and getting taken to the hospital, Kenzie woke up six days later, feeling much better.
Immediately he recognized his environment as the hospital, he quickly sat up in bed to see he's surrounded by the Alpha brothers.
"Shit, how long was I out for?" He muttered.
"Six days" Hardin replied freely,.
"Damn! Hazel" he said, rushing down from the bed.
"You're suffering from lung cancer? That's probably what your doctor told you" Killian said from his seat, and he stopped.
"Yeah. Since three years ago" he replied weakly, and Killian scoffed.
"I wanna meet the motherfûcking doctor and waste him" Jordan muttered.
"It's a female doctor" Kenzie replied.
"So it's a bîtch" Zade said.
Kenzie looked on in confusion.
"You've been fooled, and it was easy since you use only that hospital" Hardin said.
"Meaning?" Kenzie frowned.
Killian snapped his fingers, and a doctor came in.
"Since three years ago, you've been getting poisoned by a slow liquid, and the aim is to cut your strength and energy to bits within three years before it'd kill you completely" the doctor explained.
"What the..." Kenzie muttered shockingly.
"What was your issue when you went to the doctor to complain three years ago?" Killian asked.
"It was tummy cramps, and she immediately diagnosed me with cancer. She gave me the pills to take daily if I wanna prolong my lifespan" Kenzie explained.
"I believe the slow poison is part of the pills you've been taking for three years" the doctor replied, and Kenzie sat back...
More shock.
"Don't pass out, dude" Hardin said.
"But there's an interesting part to it" the doctor continued, and he looked up.
"To finalize the action of the poison when it eats deep into you, she'd inject you with potassium, and you'd be gone for life" he said, and Kenzie smirked.
"Dr. Dora..."
"Did you break her heart for trophy before? Bîtch is mean" Jordan said.
"Never f+çked her before" Kenzie replied, fisting his palms ragingly.
"You should play her a bit, I think. Be the only one to direct and act the drama, but your family and the love of your life will have to cry" Killian said.
"I know what to do" Kenzie stood.
"With the deposit of poison in your system, it'd be hard to bounce back to normal. It might take another three years to stop bleeding " the doctor said.
"I don't care, so far I don't die" Kenzie replied.
"Good then" Hardin shrugged, and Kenzie stood.
Hardin patted his shoulder fondly, and Kenzie smiled slightly.
"I'm your godfather from now on. You're Zinnia's junior brother" Hardin winked.
Kenzie couldn't help but smile again as they left the ward together
The other three brothers followed behind, and Kenzie folded his fists.
"Dora..." He muttered.
FLASHBACK ENDS*
Dr. Dora's eyes are still so wide in their sockets as she stayed frozen under Kenzie's chokehold.
More doctors poured into the ward, then everyone else.
"I know something seemed off" Lord Steel muttered with a scoff.
"Kenzie!" Hazel gasped, covering her mouth shockingly.
All eyes are widely open in utter shock.
Dr. Dora gulped fearfully again, and Kenzie smiled with a side of his face.
"You might wanna start talking now, or I'll ram this syringe into your damn heart"
TBC.
