VIXEN POV
I run back to Darrick's place, banging furiously at the gates with all my might before the gateman, Sam opens. " Leave here ma'am. I told you the Alpha doesn't want to see you" Sam informs angrily " Well tell your alpha I am not leaving, until he attends to me" I inform looking him dead in the eyes. I am not going to let my child die because of fear. " Ma'am please leave. I don't want to hurt you" He confesses calmly " Then let me in. Please I need help my daughter is sick" I beseech him before hearing a car horn. He hurries off to open it, letting a black SUV drive out and I know only it too well, who it belongs to, Darrick. As the car drives out I hurrily stand in its path in an effort to gain an audience. " What is the meaning of this rubbish Vixen?" Darrick yells angrily as he alights from the car, with his new found lover Sapphire. " Darrick, our daughter. She got hospitalized and the doctor requested we give the sum of $400 before commencing treatment" I inform " That just seems like an elaborate ploy to come close my husband" Sapphire says nonchalantly " Darrick, we have to go see her as soon as possible if we want her to survive" I inform, ignoring her. " Why should he bother. She's your daughter after all. Handle it" Sapphire interrupts once more " Sapphire shut up. This doesn't concern you" I yell acrimoniously. " Enough you two. Vixen I am not giving you dime. Sapphire let's leave" He says as tries to broad his car, but I hold onto his hand preventing that. " What type of an animal are you?. I regret boeing a child with a heartless monster like you" I yell and next thing I know, a slap connecting to my cheek. His slap was power packed that I lose my balance falling stomach first to the ground. My stomach collides with the unforgiving gravel. It hurts, it hurts so bad that I feel like my waist is about to break, I can't barely breathe. I can equally feel a viscous liquid slowly soaking my underwear, which I suspect to be blood. Unexpected, Darrick hurries to my side with a concern expression on his face. " Are you ok?" He ask concerned " I am so sorry I didn't mean to hurt you" " No, take me to the hospital. I am losing our babies" I cry at the top of my lungs while clutching on my tommy. " Darrick what are you doing?. We are going to be late" She says " Come in now" She commands before broading the car, and he follows immediately, leaving me in pain. " Darrick ahhh" I shout clutching on my lower abdomen, but he pays me no attention. He just drives out, next thing sam runs to my side. " Ma'am are you Alright?" He ask concerned " No. My babies, my daughter" I inform in tears, unable to put my words together. " Give me a second" He says as he runs in. A few seconds later he returns and hands me the sum of $500 " Ma'am please manage this. I wish I could help more" " How did you get all this money" I ask confused " I am not only a gate man ma'am. There's alot about me you don't know" He says simply before he calls for a cab and helps me in. " Take care of yourself ma'am" He informs " Thank you so much for this, I promise to repay you one day" I assure him " Forget about it. I have to go now" He says before the cab drives off. I am in unbearable pain. It feels like my stomach is about to explode from immense pain. The pain is more severe than any labour pain I had felt when I giving birth to Claire, but yet there's something that hurts me more, the fact that Darrick doesn't give a dime about me and our kids. By the time I arrive at the pack's hospital, my waist had gone numb from pain. I feel dizzy from excess blood loss, but I don't succumb to sleep. I have to see daughter, I have to make sure she's fine. I walk to the cashier and informs her that I would like to make the deposit for my daughter, but what she says stuns me. " What do you mean by my daughter is dead. I just left her here a few hours ago?" I ask in a yell unable to believe my ears. " Ma'am you see she passed away a few minutes ago, due to a cardiac arrest. I am so sorry" She informs sympathetically. " No, no. I want to see the doctor now" I inform in a yell as tears stream down my face. Our little argument quickly elevates into a commotion which draws the doctor's attention. " What is going on here?" He ask the moment he walks in. " Doctor where's my daughter?" I ask in a panic, praying that what the cashier said was all a lie. " You're bleeding miss. You need medical attention" He tries to divert from question. " Answer my question Doc. Where's my daughter" I yell grabbing hold of his collar furiously. " I am sorry ma'am, we lost her" He confesses, with a sympathetic expression on his face. My heart shatters, my legs are shivering, and my chest feels like exploding, next thing I know, I am lieing on the floor. " Ma'am are you ok?" I hear the doctor's husky voice before the darkness engulfs me. It's dark, warm and fuzzy. It's feels like all the pain is now gone and everything was just all part of a bad dream. 'My husband will never leave me. My children are fine'- I think before hearing a beeping sound. That's when all the feeling in my body returns, my back aches and my waist is on fire. I quickly flutter my eyes open to any unfamiliar white ceiling. I look to my right and there is a woman in white standing next to a ventilator. I supposed she must be a nurse. " Ahhh....What happened?" I groan at the outstanding pain in my head, while trying to sit upright but she stops me. " Don't........ Just rest........ You passed out yesterday" She informs, and that's when all the painful memories of yesterday resurface. " Where is my daughter?" I ask before taking a look at my baby bump realize that it's no longer protruding. "Where are my babies?" I ask in a panic. " I am afraid you lost the three of them" She informs. Her words hit me like a sunamy. It hurts, it feels like my world has crumbled and I have no where to run too. " No, no. I don't believe you" I cry as I pull the ventilator strip off my nose and pry the cannula off my hand. " My babies can't be dead" I yell in tears before she pulls me into her warm embrace. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ROMAN POVI sit at my desk, staring blankly at the papers in front of me. My mind is elsewhere, still reeling from the events of the previous day. Sia's sudden return and her claims have left me shaken.Just as I'm starting to gather my thoughts, my assistant buzzes in. "Boss Roman, you have a visitor."I look up, expecting it to be a business associate or perhaps a client. But instead, I see Sia standing in the doorway, a look of determination etched on her face."Hi Roman, how is your day going?" Sia questions, walking towards me, her heels clicking on the floor. She then takes a seat opposite mine, crossing one leg over the other."Emma, excuse us," I command calmly, not wanting anyone to witness this uncomfortable encounter.My assistant silently obliges, leaving Sia and me alone."Sia," I say, my voice neutral. "What can I do for you?""Roman, we need to talk," she says, her voice firm.I raise an eyebrow, feeling a sense of unease. "I'm busy, Sia. Whatever it is, can't it wait?"
ROSE POVAs evening falls, I'm still trapped in the events of the day. Sia's return and her claims haunt me like a plague. I sit in front of my luxurious dressing table, staring blankly at my reflection. Roman's voice echoes from behind me, "Rose, sweetheart, I've been calling you."He gently pats my left shoulder as he takes a seat beside me. "Sorry, I was distracted," I lie, grabbing an alcohol swab from its pack. But he sees right through me."Really now?" he says with sarcasm, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "You do know that's an alcohol swab, not a wet napkin, right?" He adds, jolting me back to reality.I feel a flush rise to my cheeks. "Oh, that was an honest mistake. Thank you," I say, returning the swab.Roman's expression turns concerned. "What's really wrong, babe?" he asks, taking my hands in his.I try to brush it off. "Nothing, honey. Let's just go to bed. I'm tired." But Roman's not having it."No, we're not going anywhere until you tell me what's wrong," he insists
SIA POV I storm into my two-bedroom apartment, slamming the door behind me. I'm fuming, my anger boiling over like a pot left unattended on the stove. How dare Roman dismiss me like that? Me, the mother of his only child. How dare he choose that...that...thing over me?I throw my bag onto the couch, pacing back and forth across the room. I'm seething, my mind racing with thoughts of revenge. Roman thinks he can just cast me aside like yesterday's trash? He thinks he can replace me with that fat, disgusting woman?I stop pacing, my eyes narrowing as I think of Rose. She's not even pretty. What could she possibly offer Roman? Why is he so obsessed with her? Does she satisfy him better in bed than I do? For Pete's sake, that woman is barren. Roman's made a big mistake. He thinks he has won, but I'll show him. I'll show him what it means to cross Sia.Just then, I hear the door open behind me. I turn to see Kane walking in, a carefree look on his face. "Hi, beautiful. What's up?" he asks
ROSE POVIt's happening again - the thing I feared most. Someone better than me, with more rights than I, is fighting for the man I love. My heart sinks as I watch Sia sweep Claire into a tight hug, her eyes blazing with a possessiveness that makes my skin crawl. I'm paralyzed with fear, my limbs trembling as I realize that someone better than me, someone with more rights than I do, is fighting for the man I love.Claire looks up at me with a nonplussed expression, confusion and curiosity etched on her face. I can tell she has no idea who Sia really is. Roman's face darkens, his protective instincts on high alert, but before he can intervene, Sia's gaze meets mine. Malice sparks in her eyes, and I feel a chill run down my spine.This is the woman who abandoned her daughter and family for years, and now she's here trying to destroy our happiness. She rises to her feet, her eyes fixed on me with a venomous intensity. She hates me that much is clear."What are you doing here, Sia?" Ro
ROMAN POVI dismount, approach Darrick with respect,"Thanks for letting Claire go with us," I say, gratitude in effect.Darrick nods, resigned, "No problem, Roman," hollow tone,My eyes narrow, sensing something's not quite shown."Darrick, is everything okay?" I ask with concern,His gaze drifts to Rose, longing in his eyes, forlorn."No, Roman," he admits, tormented, "I still love her so,"Vixen, Rose, my heart sinks, unexpected, I know.My face hardens, protective, "Rose is mine, Darrick," I warn,Firm, Darrick's eyes flash, acknowledging defeat, torn."I know," he whispers, resigned, "But I couldn't help myself,"My voice softens, sympathy, "Darrick, move on," I advise with wealth."For your own good," I add, gentle, Darrick nods, empty, hollow,I return to Rose, mount our horse, "We're leaving," I say, firm, to follow.Darrick watches as we ride away,From him, from his love, unrequited, forever to stay.My arm wraps around Rose's waist, secure, possessive,"Mine," I whisper, cl

I whisper, tears welling up inside,Darrick's voice barely audible, "I lost her," he can't hide."Rose, forever," his eyes well up, tears fall like the rain,"I'm sorry," I offer, useless words, but all I can obtain.Darrick shakes his head, resigned, "It's my fault," he confesses true,Self-blame in his voice, a sorrow that we both pursue.I take his hand, comfort offered, "We both made mistakes," I say,Shared guilt and regret, our hearts heavy, lost along the way.Darrick's gaze drifts to Roman and Rose, happy and free,While we're trapped in regret, a pain that's all we see."Let's leave," I suggest, escape this heartache and sorrow,Darrick nods in agreement, we turn and walk away tomorrow.Away from what could've
