CHAPTER FIFTY
LUCIAN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I stared down at Brie, willing her to be alright, desperately praying that our baby was safe. I had carried her home and quickly ordered for a doctor. She was bleeding. I had the dreadful feeling that it was too late, miraculously as our baby had appeared, it had been too good to be true, and now it was going to leave. We would never get to know if the baby would have been a girl or a boy. Despite these negative thoughts, I desperately was clinging to a last straw of hope. The doctor's gaze held confusion mixed with uncertainty. "What's it?" I spoke, expecting to hear the worse from him. "How far along was she?" He asked and a frown formed across my face, what had that to do with anything? I only wanted to know if the baby was fine. "About four weeks." Brie provided the answer and my eyes shifted in her direction, she wet her lips, loRelated chapters

CHAPTER FIFTY ONELUCIAN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I turned off the shower.The burning anguish continued in my chest until my hands trembled from it.Everything continued to replay in my mind, from the moment Brie was kidnapped to the doctor's words.Nicholas and his bastard son were dead, I wanted to bring them back to life, only so I could kill them again.She had said that it wasn't my fault, of course, it fucking was!If only I had not hesitated to plan this through if I had saved her earlier.Our baby! And my redemption would have been alive, it was gone before it was able to form fully.I passed by the mirror, my reflection gazed back at me.Loath seethed beneath my skin. I couldn't bear the sight of myself, the longer I stared the more burning intense feeling to ruin everything became.A hiss of pure anguish erupted from my throat as my fist made heavy contact wi

CHAPTER FIFTY TWOGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The days slowly turned into weeks, I was finally allowed to leave the room and walk around by myself. My injuries were healed and I could finally move around without pain, even better was that I could finally stop taking those disgusting blood capsules.I tied my hair into a ponytail, it was longer now, already brushing past my shoulders. Today, I could finally do what I had been anticipating in these past days. Lucian was working at this time which was why I considered it as the best opportunity.I walked into the kitchen to see Geoffrey, he didn't realize my presence until I was merely some spaces away."Ma'am!" He exclaimed.I crossed both my arms, it wasn't the first time I had told him to just call me by my name, but he always preferred to call me just that or addressing me as Mrs. Castiel. I always felt odd because he was quite elderly to me."What do you w

CHAPTER FIFTY THREE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~GABRIELLELucian returned later in the evening, just when I was just about to fall asleep, the door was pushed opened and he walked inside.He met my gaze briefly before he walked over to the wardrobe and started to take off his shirt.I pretended to be busy with the book in my hand, he couldn't know that I had waited up because of him. In these past few days, he always left for work before I woke up and always returned when I must have slept off.Why would a person work so much? Wasn't it too tiring?Truth was that I missed him. And it was way more than even I would ever understand.When I didn't want his attention, I had all of it. And suddenly, when I did, he was ignoring me?My eyes followed him until he entered inside the bathroom and I heard the sound of the shower running. I released a sigh I didn't know I was holding, it was of disappointment, he

CHAPTER FIFTY FOURGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Gabby! My daughter!" Mother cried as her arms swept around me, she embraced me so tightly as though I was going to vanish."I'm here, mom" I whispered allowing myself to breathe in her most familiar maternal smell."I didn't tell you because I thought I should surprise you."She pats my hair and broke the embrace to smile down at me. Her eyes shifted to Lucian who was standing quietly the whole time and she allowed her gaze to scan me over once again."Are you alright?" She squeezed my hands. I nodded positively."Don't I look fine to you?"I could easily have turned out worse, I thought silently. I couldn't believe how close to getting caught I almost got. I thought that removing the pill from the drug packaging and putting them inside an unlabeled bottle had been the safest way to hide them because even if Lucian saw it, he wouldn't be

CHAPTER FIFTY FIVEGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Something was not right. I chewed on my breakfast softly wondering why I was feeling troubled. Lucian had gone to handle some business matters, he didn't go into complete details with me, but I thought it was weird that no sooner did he leave the house, my father followed. Dad had been in such haste that he even skipped having breakfast. Did something happen with the factory? Or maybe there had been an attack on any of the batch of products? Mom retired to her room, I couldn't help but notice that even she seemed distracted, after the way our conversation ended yesterday, I've been trying to get answers from her but she always waved it off each time. A beeping sound disrupted my thought, my eyes located the source of the sound, it was Phoebe's cellphone. She must have forgotten it on the breakfast table before she left for her room. Maybe it was an important call? With that though

CHAPTER FIFTY SIXGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I made the call to Lucian and he told me to remain where I was, that he was on his way back. A shaky breath escaped my nostrils, why did Derek send that text? Was he around here? Perhaps he was watching me this instant? I shuddered inwardly and started to drop my phone on the bed when my eyes caught sight of a shadow behind me. A half scream managed out from my mouth before the shadow moved in a blur, a cold hand was clasped over my mouth, turning my screams into muffled sounds. I bit the hand hard, a curse left my attacker's mouth as he spoke. "Do not move, don't scream!"My body froze at the sound of the familiar voice.His hand went tight around my mouth while his other hand had a firm grip on my shoulders, he slowly turned me around to face him. Slowly, he took off the black mask that shielded his face and I was staring into the familiar face. Derek.I studied him stil

CHAPTER FIFTY SEVENGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I stared at Derek blankly as he led us towards the door, different thoughts were running through my mind, each leaving me even more confused than the last.Here was Derek who has only ever loved me, Lucian on the other hand had caused me much pain and there was no guarantee that he would change, that he would get to love me in a normal way.It should have been very easy to make a decision, if I walked out this door with Derek, then I probably would never see Lucian ever again, I wouldn't have to live in the constant fear that he would suddenly snap and hurt me. Despite knowing all these, my chest still felt too stuffy, my stomach was cramped with unease. I felt as though I was betraying Lucian, I would be hurting him. I couldn't imagine how upset he would be, what if he abuses himself again? And what about me? Would I be able to go on with my life as though Lucian hadn't happened? I al

CHAPTER FIFTY EIGHTGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Time seemed to slow down as I watched Lucian enter and at the same time Derek pull on the trigger, my scream was useless, his left shoulder was now a bloodied color that left me horrified.At that moment, I met his expression, his eyes were blazing with fury instead of the pain I knew he must be feeling. His shoulder was bleeding, blood trickling down his arm, while my heart gnawed with concern, he also looked much more like a dark forbidding beast that had been set free and ready to attack.From the corner of my eyes, I saw Derek's finger tighten around the trigger, preparing to shoot again, I didn't think, I only acted. It was a foolish move but there wasn't another option."No don't! Please. " I rushed to stand in front of Derek, so I was positioned between the gun and Lucian. "Get out of the way!!" He yelled, his eyes told the rest of the things he didn't say, the confusion, f
