Pregnancy Entrapment Laws Novels & Stories

“I think it would only be for the best if we make sure you’re not… tempted, to break the contract.” I suppressed a laugh and looked up at him. “You want to put a chastity belt on me?” “If it were up to me you’d spend the entire pregnancy locked up in a room with a doctor there at all times, but my lawyer told me that would be kidnapping.” He replied. I didn’t have a single doubt that he had actually asked that to his poor lawyer. At least the guy is being paid well.

Two others who are watching me with the specific attention of people who haven't decided yet. I keep my eyes moving. Not landing on the sympathetic face and staying there. Not avoiding the skeptical one. Moving, the way my mother's letter said to be, like something that has always belonged in the room. I am fifteen weeks pregnant, I say. The child I am carrying has a heartbeat and a wolf bond forming and a bloodline that happens to be rare. I hold the table. Under the current statute, that child can be legally designated a biological resource available to the council for study and preservation within thirty days of birth. Before it has a name. Before it has said a word. Before it has had the

“Counsel, are we ready to proceed?” The prosecutor, District Attorney Angela Ruiz, rose first. “Your Honor, the evidence is clear. The defendant, Caleb Monroe, unlawfully restrained and removed Mrs. Lauren Whitmore against her will. Under California Penal Code 207, that is kidnapping. The law does not require he harmed her physically—only that he moved her without consent, by fear or coercion. We will prove that.”

before I could complete she cut me off saying "But whatever listen I just want to convey one more thing to you if the pregnancy has exceeded 12 weeks and is below 20 weeks (first trimester) it's illegal to abort the child and also after 12 weeks, you can only have an abortion in exceptional circumstances. Only that are legal. I don't see any of those category falls under you situation so I suggest you to drop this idea" I just stood there defeated while listening to her, she continued "Don't puts your life at risk and also it will seriously harm to your health to danger. So don't even think about that" she said sternly while looking at me.

"I'm currently pregnant, and I have no plans to get rid of this baby!" "I'm not that jerk, Blair. Isn't that a bonus for our pretend wedding if you get pregnant? Regardless if he is my child or someone else's child, what is clear is that your pregnancy will further strengthen our marriage contract. I will guarantee the health and safety of both of you. This agreement remains in place until everything is decided. We'll get a good divorce later." Blair gaped in disbelief. “Is all that true? You don't have any other hidden plans? For example, you want to take my baby?”

I asked Philip as I placed around his office. He rolled his eyes, "if she Wass not on the pill then that means there is a probability she might be pregnant-" I was about to cut him off when he raised his hand up to interrupt me, "and she might have aborted the child." He sank into his seat and then exhaled. "But what if she did not abort the child?" I asked. "Then you would cater for the child." He shrugged. "Are you insane! A child?!" "Yes. Your child. That is even if you eventually merry her and if you meet her, that is if she wants you in the child's life." Hee shrugged again.

“Tell that to Gray. You’d think I was pushing menopause.” Then, a wild thought takes hold of me. “Hey, what if we were pregnant at the same time? Raised our kids together?” “They’d either be best friends or co-conspirators,” she says with a snort. “Great, but back on topic here. So… what are you going to do?” I groan in exasperation. “I can't think about anything beyond this trial. It could last another two to three months.” “Well,” she says thoughtfully, “a pregnancy won’t stop you from winning the case. But you can only hide the baby bump for so long. With such a conservative law firm, you'll need to manage the rumor mill."

I desperately wanted her to say yes, wanted there to be some loophole that would keep Carter away from this baby. "It's complicated. Biology gives him some rights automatically in New York. But judges have a lot of discretion, especially in cases involving fraud or abuse. And emotional manipulation, documented targeting, marriage under false pretenses—that's all going to count against him." Naomi stood up, helped me to my feet. "We'll consult with a family law attorney tomorrow. Quietly, confidentially. Get real advice about your options. But tonight, you need to rest. For yourself and for that baby."

"‌Doesn't that matter?" "It comp‌licates⁠ thing‌s.​ But it doesn't override coercion laws⁠. If she determine​s you were forced,‍ p⁠regnancy beco⁠mes ev‍idence o⁠f‌ th‌e violation. No‌t prevention of cons‌equences.​"

She wasn't even afraid of hurting the baby. I pretended to be hurt and staggered back two steps. Kenna steadied me and slammed a charge sheet down in front of Ellie. "You're suspected of inciting murder. Just wait to go to jail. Oh, I forgot. You're pregnant. The law is more lenient with pregnant women. You can sit in prison after giving birth and rest there during your postpartum period." Looking at the statement of charges in front of her, Ellie froze. Then, she clutched her not-so-visible stomach in pain.
