Chapter 18 (Benjamin's POV)Often you hear words like, it will all work out in the end. Well, since today I promise to believe it next time I hear it. After all, I did get my girl back into my arms where she belonged even though some things still felt completely unrealistic to me. Like the fact that she was pregnant! I was going to be a father! I would probably need quite some time to wrap my head around this new fact. Why she would hide something like that from me was a mystery though. But Seth did warn me that it was most likely something from the past or someone coming to haunt her again and that I should be prepared, but all that did not prepare me for the news I received instead. I was definitely ready to defend Anastasia and beat up anyone that so much as looked at her at the wrong time and wrong place. But she did answer at least halfway. There has been something said about a threatening more she received, I had no idea about the content of it but if it scared my sunshine it mu

Chapter 20 (Benjamin's POV)What in the ever-loving fuck is going on?We just arrived back at my parent's ranch and stepped out of the car when suddenly shots could be heard from somewhere behind us. Of course, my first thought was that I need to get Anastasia and the baby to safety, but in the pitch-black night and only stars shining above us, I had no idea where the shots came from and which way was safe. Where was my father when you needed him? Just as the thought entered my mind the front door burst opened and there stood the man I was just cursing silently in my mind holding his beloved shotgun. As he stepped on the front porch the light above him turned on and I could finally see things around us, but still I could only see two silhouettes from where we were crouching behind the car. I had to get us closer to the house, but first something else, "Dad! Tell mom to call the cops! Now! And get your ass inside the house, just make sure the light stays turned on!" But you see, I sho

Chapter 22 (Benjamin's POV)Hours have passed already and still, we had no idea when Anastasia was coming home or if she was even coming home, or if they would keep her at the police station, after all, it would not be the first time that police officers would use tactics of lying to convince someone to follow them willingly. But I had to stay positive, and I guess my struggle was showing clearly on my face because suddenly I could feel a hand clamp down on my shoulder and when I looked over it I found Seth standing behind me, giving me an encouraging smile, "Do not worry Benji. She will be alright. I promise. You know many bad things she survived with small scars to her body and soul and hopefully this time it would be the same." All I could do was hope he was right. I needed her to be strong for herself, for the baby, and for me as well. Just the thought of my sunshine being scared, or in any way carrying around the guilt for what happened tonight was tearing me apart. I was just

Chapter 24 (Benjamin's POV)Something is wrong. And I do not mean some little thing. Nope. Something was very, very wrong, and so far I had no idea what that something could be.Anastasia was acting weird.If you looked at her as someone that did not know her you would not even see the little signs. But I and Seth knew her very well.We both knew Anastasia was one of the softest persons alive and there was no way in hell she was so unaffected by yesterday's events.Now, do not get me wrong. Of course, I was happy that she looked like it did not affect her, or at least as if she accepted the fact that she killed two people in self-defense. But like I said, both I and Seth knew she was full of shit. She was putting on a show for our sake. And the worst part? We had no idea how to get to her and saying it harshly, forced her to drop the mask of false happiness. Even if I did not know her the way I do, something was telling me deep in my gut that yesterday was only the beginning of somet

Chapter 26 (Benjamin’s POV)Any moment now Anabelle and Anastasia will get down and we would play the dutiful boyfriends by escorting them to the car. None of the girls knew we were going to follow them. It was better this way. It was not because we did not trust them because honestly, we would probably trust them with our life if we had to. But we did not want to put them in a position where they would have to lie to their friend, it was bad enough that we were lying and hiding things from all of them, and we knew there would be hell to pay once they realized what we were doing. But right now, their safety was on the first place and then we would worry about the consequences of our actions.Just as I was thinking what kind of punishment they would come up with when they realize our plan, the door on the front floor could be heard how it was opened which was our cue to wait for our girls under the stairs. I was completely ready, that is until I saw what Anastasia was working. If there
