The Devil's Possession: His obsession 87: IS IT TRUE
CAITLINI breathed a sigh of relief when Esteban shut the door behind him.He had been so gentle and thoughtful, but I didn't want the moment ruined by questions.Questions whose answers I was beginning to doubt.I closed my eyes and held my breath as I slid deeper into the tub. The water soothed the ache in my body. I lifted my head out of the water, sucking in air through my mouth.Why couldn't I just ask him?Maybe it was the lovesick fool in me or the hormones.He wasn't one to lie about things. Ever. He didn't care what anyone thought of him. Asking seemed like the right thing to do.But then why did he ask like he had no idea about it?I got out of the tub, wrapping a towel over my chest. I stood in front of the mirror. My collarbones were a lot more visible than they used to be.Curious, I took off the towel and stared at my reflection. For a woman who was pregnant, my waist was smaller than it had been when I wasn't.I chuckled softly, putting a hand over my belly. It took a b

ESTEBAN“What do you mean, I killed your parents?” I asked, watching her closely.She lowered her gaze, fidgeting with the covers.Her face went pale. She gagged, pressing a hand over her mouth. I wanted to get up and reach for her. The answers I wanted no longer mattered. But I stopped myself. I couldn’t keep acting like a fool for her. I watched her tug at the IV line, pull it out, and bolt to the bathroom.Caitlin barely had anything in her system to retch. She vomited, coughed, sighed and moaned. The sound was agonizing. I did that to her.I stood up and walked to the bathroom. She was leaning over the sink, her hands gripping its sides as though she'd drop to the ground if she let go.Walking quietly to her side, I rubbed her back, soothing her. She flinched, then relaxed as she caught my reflection in the mirror.“Caitlin…”Honestly, I didn’t know what to say to her. Sorry for getting you pregnant? Sorry my little devil’s putting you through this? That didn’t seem right. But I w

CAITLIN "See you in ten minutes," Esteban said, stepping out of the room."This is for both of—"I held up a hand, gesturing for the doctor to keep quiet. Esteban shut the door behind him, ignoring the man as though he hadn't heard him at all.Sitting up in bed, I waited until Esteban's footsteps faded. My heart was racing in my chest.My gaze shifted from the door to the doctor's face.“Tell me, the good news you mentioned…” I exhaled. “Is it what I think it is?”“Miss, I don't know what you're thinking, but I can tell you the good news now,” he smiled. “You're pregnant.”“I can't be pregnant,” I repeated the words over and over as though they could change anything.Although I had guessed it, hearing the doctor confirm it still came as a shock. It was a good thing I had asked Esteban to leave the room.“I thought it would be exciting news. From the looks of it, this wasn't planned,” the doctor mumbled, adjusting his glasses.“It wasn't,” I snapped.The man just nodded. “I see.”“No,
The Devil's Possession: His obsession 84: MY BABY
ESTEBANCaitlin's demeanor changed after the call with the doctor. She started biting her fingers.I wondered if she was just bored. I wasn't helping matters, considering all I did was sit and watch her while I was lost in thought.I got up from my seat, walked to the sofa, and sat down. Rosio had kept my food on the small table.“Are you hungry? There's eggs, meat and—”“No, thanks,” she said with a forced smile.Rosio had mentioned it, but it was strange hearing her reject food. I loved how much she loved her food.I could sit and watch her eat all day. It was beautiful.Wasn't the treatment supposed to help with that too?“You're not hungry?” I asked.She looked at me. Her gaze dropped to the tray, and then she swallowed. The truth was already in her eyes.How was it that I could tell if she was lying or not, but couldn't see that she had been lying about her business with Caspian?Fuck, she was a bad liar. So how was it that she had lied from the beginning?“I am hungry,” she said
The Devil's Possession: His obsession 83: WHAT GOOD NEWS?
CAITLIN My lids cracked open. A strange man's face was a few inches above mine. His eyebrows were furrowed.“Who are you?” I croaked.He didn't respond. He just stepped away from the bed.I heard Esteban murmur something. They were both speaking quietly, and I could hardly hear a word they were saying.I swept my gaze across the room. There was an IV line attached to my hand. Then I recalled what had happened in Esteban’s study.Why were they whispering? Was something really wrong with me?“I’ll let you know when the results are ready,” the doctor said, walking towards the door.That gave me a little bit of relief. Still, I couldn’t help but wonder what the results would say. I couldn’t say I had been living a healthy life.Esteban sat down in the chair beside the bed. His eyes were softer than they were in his study. The fear in his voice when he caught me in his study had been so real. Still, he wanted me gone. With him sitting a few inches away from me, I could tell he was worried
The Devil's Possession: His obsession 82: LIES
ESTEBAN“Call the doctor!” I barked, carrying her to our room.I couldn't risk taking her to the hospital in case it was part of Caspian's plan. If they had purposely made her sick, it was for a reason—a stupid plot—and I wasn't about to jump right into it.Not when it could put Caitlin's life in jeopardy, considering I could hardly trust my own men.How did it get to this? I felt like a weak prick.I laid her gently on the bed, removing the pillows from under her.“The doctor is on his way,” Rosio said from the doorway. She took a few steps forward, her gaze pinned on the floor. “I—I noticed she wasn’t really eating. I thought she didn’t like the—”Great! And she was just telling me at the “right” time.“Thank you, Rosio. You can leave now.”I brushed my fingers through Caitlin’s hair. There was sweat on her forehead, her palms too. I took off her hoodie and put her in something more comfortable.She stirred.“Esteban—”I took her hand in mine and brought it to my mouth.“Yes, sweet.
