All Chapters of Sold To The Scarred King: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

The morning started badly for me. I woke up before the sun even came up. Not like I wanted to be an early bird or anything; I just couldn’t sleep. My stomach felt uneasy. I assumed it was because I hadn’t slept well.After everything that had happened, I had become so used to Cassian and me sleeping together that sleep had been almost impossible for me. I was lucky to even get a few hours of sleep in.I finally managed to sit up and felt the room spin. “What the hell?” I groaned as I rested my head on the headboard. The dizziness faded after a few seconds.This was the consequence of my neglecting my health because of my issues with Cassian. I didn’t want to end up falling sick because of him. I still had a lot of work to do.I massaged my temples. “I’m just going to have to force myself to eat this morning.” I mumbled as I stood up and began getting ready for the day.I tried to keep my outfit as simple as possible so I could avoid wearing heels. I didn’t have the energy for it

I hesitantly reached out, tapping Tony on his shoulder.“Yes, ma’am?”“Um… can we stop by a pharmacy before going to the foundation? I want to get something.”His eyes snapped to mine. “Are you feeling unwell, ma’am? Why don’t we go to the hospital instead?”“I’m fine, Tony. I just want to get something.”He nodded hesitantly before making a turn.I sat back nervously thinking about what I was about to do.I came down from the car almost immediately after Tony stopped. He opened the car door and came down.I paused. “Where do you think you’re going?”“Inside. I can wait by the entrance for you.”No way.“No, Tony. I’d prefer to go in alone.”He gave me a look before nodding. “Alright, ma’am. I’ll be here if you need anything.”I watched him get back into the car before finally walking in.In the pharmacy, I couldn’t help but nervously look around like I was being watched. Maybe it was my own paranoia because I was about to buy a pregnancy kit. The last thing I needed right now was som

I couldn’t move. My eyes were only fixed on the test in front of me. Two lines. That meant positive. That meant I was pregnant. I clenched the test in my hands as I stayed frozen. My brain refused to process what my eyes were seeing. I was pregnant? I was pregnant with Cassian’s child. Oh my God. I’m pregnant!My eyes snapped back to the test in front of me, and I gasped as the realization finally hit me. I was going to be a mother.Wait, what if the test wasn’t accurate? Were home pregnancy tests 100% accurate? What if there was a mistake?I took a deep breath to calm my wandering thoughts. “I bought another one. Let me take that as well.”I quickly brought the second test and took that as well. After three minutes, I checked it and saw two lines. Well, it was now confirmed. I was pregnant. The words echoed inside my head over and over until it no longer sounded real. I was pregnant. What was I going to do? After the stunt I pulled, I was sure Cassian wouldn’t want anythi

The dining room was already occupied when I arrived.Cassian was already sitting at the head of the dining table, reading through several documents while drinking coffee.Ah coffee. I missed it; that was for certain, but I knew the reason why I couldn’t drink it anymore.He barely looked up when I entered. It was only through his greeting that I knew that he had seen me.“Morning.”“Morning.” I responded as I took my usual seat.“Rose, I’ll be taking juice.”She nodded and walked out.A few minutes passed, and she was back with my food.Scrambled eggs, toast, sausages and fresh oranges. The smell of the eggs hit me instantly. I felt my stomach lurch.I forced myself to swallow hard. Now was not the time.Please, not now.I discreetly pushed the plate away, hoping I wasn’t noticed.But I was. Rose noticed me instantly.“Would you like something else, ma’am?”I shook my head, faking a smile. “No, thank you. This will do just fine.”I played with the eggs while eating more of the toast a

I stood in front of the hospital nervously playing with my fingers.Beth had already texted me that I had the next few hours to myself and I should take my time. She guaranteed that Tony was definitely stalled but probably annoyed as well. I didn't even try to ask what she got him to do.When I got there, I couldn't bring myself to go in. I was currently standing outside in thought.What was there to be scared of? I already knew I was pregnant. There was no shocking news waiting for me.Still, I fidgeted."Let's do this, Elara."With that little pep talk, I finally dragged my feet in.I walked to the receptionist's desk where a nurse stood.She greeted me with a smile."Good afternoon, ma'am. How may I be of help to you?""Good afternoon. Um... I'm here to see an obstetrician. I have an appointment for 3 o'clock.""Alright, ma'am. Just take a seat. She'll be right with you."I nodded and walked to a chair, feeling the cool metal against my skin.I didn't entirely lie to Cassian. I did
