♥️EVE♥️

My heart ceased the minute Annamarie said that. 

"Wha....?" I trailed off, furrowing my brows. 

Oh God. 

Pregnant? 

Mum scoffed. 

"Wha....what do you mean?" I stuttered nervously. 

Mum moved closer and gave me a backhand slap. 

"Louisa!" I heard dad yell as I let out a whimper. I held my cheek as pain filled my head, making me dizzy. 

"You slut!" Mum spat. 

I looked at her with my tear-filled eyes while still holding my cheek. 

She is scowling at me. 

"How dare you do this fucking shit?" She snarled. 

I didn't respond but kept staring at her. 

She grabbed me closer by my dress. 

"Louisa, stop doing this," I heard dad say. 

"Shut him up," Annamarie ordered, and I heard a hitting sound followed by a groan from my dad. 

My heart clenched as I stared at my mom's green eyes. 

Just like mine. 

A clear evidence that she is my mother. 

How can this cruel money-hungry bitch be my mother? 

"Who got you pregnant?" She snarled. 

My heart reacted as I thought of the person responsible. 

"Answer me, damn it!" She yelled, making me blink as she glared at me. 

"What do you care?" I asked. 

Her face twitched. 

"I am nothing to you but a means to get wealth," I said, staring dead into her eyes. 

She scoffed, releasing my dress. 

"I see your beloved dad has told you everything," she said, looking at my dad. 

"What kind of a mother are you?" I asked. 

She looked at me. 

"Did you even for once think about me? How I was faring? If I was okay?"  

She kept staring at me. 

"Instead you sent your stupid men to come after me," I said angrily. 

She shrugged. "Well, you fared so damn well that you got pregnant, didn't you?" 

My heart clenched as I stared at her. 

"You were busy having a good time, spreading your legs wider than you spread books." She mocked. 

I kept staring at her as guilt filled me. 

"Why would I think about a child who is busy being a fucking slut?!" she yelled. 

I lowered my gaze. 

"Who is he?" she asked. 

I didn't respond. 

"Who the fuck is responsible for the pregnancy?!" she yelled. 

I looked at her without answering her. 

She raised her brows and scoffed. 

"The Don?" she asked. 

I gulped, surprised at how she guessed that right. 

"I have gotten reports about him saving you from my men most times. His men made it difficult for my men to get to you. It was like he was protecting you." 

My heart reacted. 

"Tell me why would he do that if he is not interested in you?" She asked. 

I didn't respond. 

"You fucked him, didn't you?" She blunted. 

I still didn't respond. 

She scoffed. "You actually did. I have heard of his captivating charm and his reserved personality. Women literally fall at his feet. You weren't an exception, were you?" 

I lowered my gaze. 

"You even got pregnant for him. How fucking cheap and stupid are you?" 

"I don't owe you any explanation, Louisa," I said, looking at her. 

Her face twitched. 

"Stop acting like my mother because you are not. My mother died in that fire. You are nothing but a heartless bitch," I snarled. 

"Shut your mouth!" She yelled, slapping me again. 

I whimpered but got a push from her, landing me on the floor. 

I whimpered again, feeling an ache in my belly and my head. 

"Useless child!" she spat. 

I glared at her as I held my belly. 

"You are taking that shit out of you," 

My heart dropped. 

"I have a good use for you. But with that thing in you, you are useless," she said. 

"I am not taking anything out," I snarled. 

"You have no say in this. You are taking it out and that is final," she said with all seriousness. 

God, she is evil. 

"Take her and the bastard back to the room," she ordered, walking back to her seat. 

"I hate you, Louisa!" I yelled as the men dragged me back. 

"You are a fucking bitch!" I yelled as they took me away. 

I sobbed till we got to the room.

I sat on the floor, resting my back on the wall as tears flowed.

"Pumpkin," dad called. 

I didn't respond but sobbed silently. 

"Are you really pregnant," he asked. 

I didn't respond.

"Pumpkin,"

"She can't take it out. She really can't." I sobbed silently. 

"I wish I could help, sweetie," he said. 

My heart tightened. 

"But I am beyond weak. She has broken all my strength. I don't know why she can't just kill me already." 

More tears rolled down my eyes. 

"I guess she enjoys seeing me suffer for what I did," he said. 

"Forget about what you did, dad. This is unfair to me. I did nothing to her. I shouldn't be placed in the middle of your misunderstanding. I wouldn't do this to my own child," I said. 

"You are right. You are right, sweetie, and I am sorry. You don't deserve this," he said. 

"She can't take my baby out. I am not going to let her." I said, staring at a random place. 

I sensed him limp towards me. 

He placed his hand on my shoulder and I placed my head on his as he caressed me. 

"I won't let her either. Even if it means me getting killed, I won't let her touch you. I will protect you, my little pumpkin," he said, caressing my hair. 

I let out sobs as my heart clenched continuously. 

God, I am pregnant with Adrian's child. 

Dolores is pregnant too. 

How fucked up is this? 

I can't even believe that I am already being protective of it even after he made a fool out of me. 

I should let my mother take it out. 

I shouldn't be protecting it.

What is wrong with me? 

What have I done to myself?! 



HOURS LATER......

I closed my eyes as tears rolled down my eyes and I opened them. 

It has been hours and my dad is asleep. 

Mum is yet to show up to take out the baby. 

I have made peace with her decision. 

I don't want the baby. 

I can't keep it. 

Not after what Adrian did. 

Despite thinking about his betrayal, I can't help but think about those beautiful times we spent together. 

Those sneaky moments. 

His flawless face and warm touch. 

My mum was right. 

I am a stupid cheap slut. 

I rubbed my temples, sniffling. 

I looked at my dad. 

He is sound asleep, still looking battered and weak. 

Mum is so cruel. 

She is as cruel as a true mafia blood. 

She hid her identity from me all my life, and now she is showing her true colors. 

I understand she is upset with dad for betraying her. 

What the hell did I do? 

I was a good daughter. I listened to all her instructions. 

I obeyed her. 

I let her teach me stuff even when I find it strange. 

What the fuck did I do wrong?

I let out a breath, closing my eyes. 

Next, the locks of the door moved and made a sound. 

My heart picked up as I shuddered, shifting more into the wall like it would hide me. 

God, she is here. 

She is here to take out my baby. 

I didn't know when I patted my dad, waking him up as the door locks kept making a sound. 

"Dad," 

"Pumpkin...." 

"She is here," I almost cried, looking between him and the door. 

He held me closer while we stared at the door. 

It opened instantly and the last person I expected to see fell in. 

I froze. 

"Mario?" 

"Evelyn," 

Wha.....

"You know him?" Dad asked. 

God, what is he......how did he.....

"We have to go," Mario said, and two unfamiliar men walked in and towards us. 

I was dumbfounded, staring at Mario as the men helped us up. They took us towards the door where Mario was. 

I didn't take my eyes off him, but he averted his from me. 

"Let's go," he said, walking ahead.

My heart clenched as the men urged us to follow him behind. 

I have no idea what is going on or why Mario is here, but I am walking regardless. 

We got to the stairs, and we began to descend them when I looked ahead. 

My heart picked up the minute I saw Adrian, aiming his gun at my mum. 

Oh God. 

I can also see some of his men around.  Some are holding my mum and Annamarie and some of my mum's men. 

Mario took steps towards them as we followed him behind. 

Adrian's eyes fell on me, making my heart race. 

His eyes softened as we held each other's gaze. 

Mum scoffed, making me lower my gaze. Dad held my hand and I held his arm. 

"This is some romantic shit," mum said, making me look at her. 

She is smirking at Adrian. 

"You came to save your damsel in distress, huh?" she said.

I looked at Adrian. 

He is looking at her. 

"The Don saved his beauty. How sweet. Did you even think about the fucking age gap between you two?" she asked. 

"She is an adult," Adrian said calmly. 

I lowered my gaze. 

She scoffed. "Of course. That is why you got her pregnant, huh?" 

My heart raced again. 

God, she spat it out. 

I looked at Adrian. 

His eyes are on me.
