Archer I scoffed while scratching my head. “You're telling me that even after you guys ruined my family, you never had happiness?” A small laugh escaped my lips. This is just fucking ridiculous, i mean why would you destroy something and continue to taunt yourself with it. “Was she sad that she ruined the perfect family? Or did she try to make you guys the perfect family?” A smirk appeared on my lips as I stared at Pius. His Smile had faded and his expression was emotionless. Although his face showed no emotion, I knew he was pressed. “I never knew that you guys were so pathetic, I'm almost feeling sorry for you.” He tapped his feet on the ground a few times before he finally opened his mouth to speak. “You don't know when to shut up do you?” “Can you stop with the bullshit and just give us Elena, what do you want money? Done, just bring her
Archer “Oh, you're no fun. Are you mad because my mother married your father just to kill him?”“What?” Savien exclaimed. I could feel my blood boiling in my veins as I stared at him. I just wanted to pounce on him and break every bone in his body until I was satisfied. “You fucking…” I pointed the gun at him and clocked it.“Ah, ah, ah.” he raised his hand up. He was holding a small remote, and I knew what it was used for. Fuck.“Looks like you already got the hint, bro. Any funny moves, and I press this button. Taking out both Elena and…do you have a name for her?" Whatever, it wouldn't matter if she's dead, right?”He laughed hysterically. “Listen, Pius…” I lowered my gun and talked calmly. “This fight is between you and me. There's no reason to involve third parties. Do you wanna fight me? Then do, but just leave Elena and the baby out of this. They're innocent.”He let out a laugh. “Wow, I never knew that you could talk like this, dear Edward. Look at how weak you've become…be
ArcherThe night was cold, but I felt super hot. I paced up and down as I waited for Savien. At this point, my head was banging, and I couldn't think straight. Scared was an understatement, and I've never felt like this before after my father died. I ran my hand through my hair multiple times, making it messy.Loose strands of hair on my face were damp from the sweat on my forehead. “Found her,” Savien exclaimed, and I immediately rushed to the screen in front of him. The GPS tracker shows that they're at an old dockyard at the far end of the city. “That fucking…” I inhaled sharply and adjusted my gun. “Let's move.” We left with some of our men just in case.After what felt like forever, we finally got to the place. It was very old and dirty. I stood there quietly, my eyes scanning the surrounding buildings. "You sure this is the place?" I inquired.Savien checked his tablet again, then nodded. "This is where the signal stopped. She's here.”We crept forward, ducking behind crates
CHAPTER 75 Elena pov I opened my eyes slowly, feeling weak and exhausted. I barely had enough strength to sit up. I looked around and realised that I was in an unfamiliar environment. My heart plummeted to my stomach. Where am I? I panicked as I looked around the empty room. The room smelled of oil and old wood. Dim light flickered from the overhead bulbs, casting long shadows on the floor. I realised that my arms were bound to the bed I was lying on, and I immediately guessed what was going on. I turned to my side and saw my baby lying quietly in the crib, I wanted to hold her so badly. I immediately started struggling and trying to yank my hand out of the ropes. Who could've done this? Is it Puis? Why would he do this to me? Beads of sweat formed on my forehead, and my heartbeat wasn't normal. My eyes were drowsy, and I couldn't hold up my head for long. I feel so weak
I haven't been able to think straight ever since Archer told me how his dad died. I'm a monster, just like his mother. I don't want to cause him any more pain, what should I do? Should I just come clean and tell him everything? Ugh, what if he kills me or locks me up somewhere? This is so frustrating. I got down from the bed to walk around when my water broke. “Oh shit,” I exclaimed as I stared at the floor. I walked closer to Archer. He was asleep. I tapped him once, and his eyes shot open, and he immediately sat up. “Arc…Edward, my water just broke.” My voice was low and soft. He looked at me with a puzzled expression. “I'm sorry El, what does that mean?” He asked innocently. “I'm about to go into labour.” I do feel a minor contraction building up. “Shit.” He immediately jumped up and grabbed his car key and rushed to my side. “Are you in any pain? Can you walk? Do you need me to carr
FOUR WEEKS LATERElena For the past few weeks, I realised that Archer hardly stepped out; he normally spent time taking care of me, and it got me thinking. Did he take a break to take care of me or what?Cause I remember how hard it was to even catch a glimpse of him at home sometimes. Now he never leaves. I want to ask him why, but he might use that opportunity to tease me so I won't. I let out a loud sigh as I stared at the clear sky. Breathing had been difficult these days, and I couldn't walk for long. “What are you doing here alone?” I heard his deep, raspy voice from behind me. I turned to look at him, and he had a smile on his face as he sat down with me on the balcony. “Just enjoying nature; I mean, this is as far as I can get.” He chuckled lightly.“It wouldn't have been like that if you just stopped trying to run away.” I rolled my eyes so hard.“You are so lucky you're pregnant.”“Why?
