Katherine’s POVThe sound of voices echoing woke me up from my slumber. It was all blurry at first, then everything came into focus. I spotted Caleb first, then Daniel, his friend, and a couple of other people in the room. Someone turned and left the room and for a moment I thought it was Ethan but when I shook my head slightly, I didn't see anyone.My head movement however let the others know that I was now awake. "She's awake!" Someone squeals and Caleb rushes towards me, worry etched into the lines on his forehead."Baby, are you okay?" He says and places his hands on my forearms. I was just about to reassure him when the pressure of his fingers on my body made me scream out loud, pain rocketing through my body. That was when I discovered that every inch of my body was in pain and even a slight movement made it even worse so I stopped moving my body."I'm sorry!" Caleb instantly removes his hands and the pressure abates causing the pain to reduce. I feel terrible for making him worr

Katherine’s POV"Hey, Katherine!" Doctor Mallory, who insists I should just call her Mallory, waltzes into my room with a wide smile and a bag of chocolates in the other."Hi!!" I responded just as eagerly as dropped the boxes of chocolate on a nearby table, craning my neck to see what was inside. "Whatchu got there?!"She gives me a secretive smile, hanging her stethoscope around her neck. "Nothing you need to see." She says coyly and goes about with her exams, pretending to ignore me.I sit back down on my mound of pillows with a huff, folding my hands beneath my breasts. "Really? You're going to do this to me?" When she continued ignoring me, I could a faint hint of a smile peeking through from her otherwise serious expression. "You know torturing a bedridden pregnant woman with a bag of chocolates far from reach is borderline wickedness, right?" I groaned, my mouth watering the longer I stared at the box."Ha! So you're going to bring out the pregnancy card?" She breaks her silenc

Caleb’s POVI looked at Ethan in worry after the line went dead in my ear."Hello, Katherine? Kathy baby, can you hear me?!" I shouted into the speaker, but silence greeted me."I told you to wait till we got home! You didn't listen!" Ethan grumbled when I tried to call her back but I kept getting voicemail. I ran a hand through my hair as I was so agitated that I didn't even have a comeback to what he said, instead, I pushed him out of the way and ran towards the car."You coming or what?" I yelled over my shoulder as I started the engine, and pressed on the accelerator.Ethan sprints towards the other side of the car, barely getting inside before I take off on the highway.While driving with one hand on the steering wheel, I hooked up my phone to the car's Bluetooth and kept on calling Katherine's number.After a while, I got the message that her inbox was full and couldn't accept any more messages.I hit the steering in anger. "Fuck!! Fuck, fuck, fuck!!"Ethan was just calm through

Ethan’s POVWhen I set my mind to do something, I prefer to finish it and that was what I set out to do while I stomped through the bushes, en route to find the woman that took Roy….and he's, you did hear me right, it was a lady that incapacitated four of my good men and absconded with a boy.I was nothing if not intrigued enough to see who it was.When my tech guru informed me of a possible cash transfer pinged around that district, I told him to follow up on it, if it may be the kidnapper.Turns out that I was right.The lady was smart, she hid in the bushes after all that happened, trying to dust off her tracks but we picked up on it.She was somewhere around West Virginia which wasn't our territory so we had to move carefully. Very carefully, if I may add.The goal was to go in and slip out like nothing had happened. I didn't tell either Caleb or Katherine of my findings because I didn't want them to come looking around, trying to take away what little leverage I had.I was so fur

Katherine’s POVEverything has changed.Ever since the incident in the bathroom which made me lose the baby, and after I was placed on bed rest for two weeks, both Ethan and Caleb have been avoiding me.I couldn't even talk to Daniel for two minutes before I had to fake a call and leave.Yes, I knew it was fake because I saw it one time, and no one buzzed him yet he picked up his phone and acted like he had to get to a meeting hastily.On the outside, I kept calm, but on the inside, I was breaking down. The kidnapping with my half-brother, the pregnancy that I didn't even have the time to come to terms with the baby before I lost it, and now this...it was all too much, and I couldn't keep it all inside before it ate me up...which was why when Mallory insisted on introducing me to a shrink or preferably someone who could help me...at least mentally, I agreed.Mallory and I were the only ones who were aware of this for now. I mean Caleb would too...if he were around to even talk to me.
