My wife slept through the rest of the day and the night. The only time she woke up was when I focused her to sit up so she could at least have her dinner.

Ella was completely exhausted . Even while she was having her dinner, she was barely moving around. I ended up feeding her more than half of her dinner. The second I pulled the tray off of her lap, she had slid under the covers and went to sleep again.

I slept with my arms around her the entire night, and Ella didn't move once.

It worried me to no end. I wondered if she was injured when she fell down the stairs and the doctors weren't able to catch it yet.

The morning was just the same. I woke up before my alarm went off. I looked at Ella and tried to wake her up so she would have her breakfast. But she turned away from me, gave me her back, and went right back to sleep.

"Ella?" I called out as I ran my fingers through her hair.

She refused to wake up. So I decided to let her sleep in and send Dalinda up with her meal if she refused

    Ella Smith...I heard movement in the room and forced my eyes to peal open. I was extremely exhausted even after all the sleep I got the previous day and night.Dalinda had come at one point to force me to sit so I would have lunch. But right after that, I was lights out again.I don't know what the heck was wrong with my body, but I just wanted to rest even more than I already have.Dalinda warned me not to go back to sleep, saying it was not healthy. But the second she stepped out of the room with the empty plates, I was back to sleep.But now, I forced myself to get up and look around the room. I watched as Elijah walked into the surveillance room. With the way he was dressed, I could tell that he was about to leave, and I didn't like it.I pulled the covers off of me and swung my legs over the edge of the bed. I pushed myself up to my feet.I walked towards the surveillance room and looked in as Elijah scanned the monitors while he loaded up his gun.I knocked on the door, ho

    Elijah Smith...I sat in the middle seat of the tinted minivan next to Kevin and one other man. It was supposed to be a disguise when we entered traffic, so we would be able to blend in pretty well.Cane was the one driving the car, taking us to the location of our choice. One of our men sat shot gun, and the rest three sat at the back seat. I kept my eyes planted on the window, remembering Ella's reaction when I tried to kiss her before I left the mansion. She ducked her head, and I just knew that it was so she would be able to avoid my kiss.Why?I let out a silent sigh as I cracked my knuckles.My eyes were still planted on the window, avoiding the tension in the car, when I saw something, more like when I saw someone.We were about to join traffic when I caught a figure walking down a quiet street, holding a coffee holder with six cups of cheap coffee in it.I say cheap because the holder was obviously from the small coffee house around the corner, and everyone knows you don

    He almost looked like he had given up. But he quickly changed his stance, keeping his feet apart and wide to balance himself as he raised his fisted hands up, looking like he was ready to fight.He didn't want to give up, I could see that. He wanted to at least fight until his chances of escaping became slim to none.I stayed waiting, expecting him to attack. But I guess he wasn't stupid after all.Because he didn't attack. He went straight for the one who didn't have a gun in his hands, and that was Kevin.I quickly raised my gun up when the man locked his arm around Kevin's neck from behind.Kevin looked annoyed. He could get out of that hold, I knew he could. What worried me was the gun Kevin had that was now in the reach of the man's hand.Kevin collected his strength to flip the man over his shoulder, but before he could, the man pushed him away.He no longer needed Kevin because he got his gun.He pointed the gun to me."Drop your guns, or I will shoot." He warned, knowing well

    Ella Smith...I sat on the edge of the bed. My right leg bounced up and down uncontrollably. I was nervous.Dalinda sat to my right, and Melina sat to my left. They sat too close to me, squeezing me in between as a way of showing their support."There is nothing to be nervous about. You don't have to worry. If it's positive, then it's positive." Dalinda commented as she shrugged both of her shoulders."Don't say that..." Melina said as she leaned in to look at Dalinda."This is one of the most nerve racking moment in a woman's life. I remember sweating a gallon when I found out that I was pregnant with Miles. It was terrifying."Well, that's not comforting to hear at all.Dalinda playfully glared at Melina."You're not helping." She said before they both turned their eyes to me.I shot them a tight smile, hoping I wouldn't look as nervous as I actually am.The three of us glanced at the clock and saw that it was already past the minutes we needed to wait for the results of the p

    Elijah Smith...I ran towards the last room of the first floor, which was the one room we used to have a serious injury treated.One of the men following after me ran forward so he would be able to open the door for me.He turned the lights on and rushed forward to take the plastic sheets off of the bed and helped me lay the man down on his back.I looked down at him as I signaled for the guard to pass me some clean cloth, and once he passed it to me, I took the damp cloth off and pressed the cloth against the wound on his chest.A few seconds after I had realized that the Viper we were fighting was Cane's lost twin brother, I had dove down, pressing my hand against the wound to stop him from bleeding out.I didn't know what the heck I was doing, but all I knew was that I could not let the man die, because if I did, then I knew I would lose Cane as well.I'd barked orders out to my men, telling one of them to bring the car over and ordering another one to call Dante and have him s

    Ella Smith...We finally got Cane to come down as much as we could. His sobs had stopped, but he was still shaking like a leaf.Dalinda, who had done great to comfort him with soft words, had to leave us to help Elijah and Doctor Morgan. And considering their previous relationship, Cilvia kept her distance. Melina was by Kevin's side, who sat across from us. That left me with Cane.We both sat down on the floor, and my arms were around his shoulders, hoping I would be able to comfort him with at least a hug since I couldn't comfort him the way Dalinda was able to.Each time someone ran in and out of the room, Cane nearly jumped to his feet, but I had to hold him back. The only reason I succeeded in keeping him next to me was not because I was stronger than him. It was because he was extremely exhausted out of his mind.It took hours. The longer it took, the more devastated I was becoming.Cane was basically praying at one point to keep his brother alive. I felt horrible for him

    Elijah Smith...Four days. It took four days for Cane's twin brother to gain consciousness.Those four days were probably one of the darkness days this mansion had ever seen.While the news of my lovely wife carrying my child make my heart skip a beat and my palms all sweaty from excitment, I wasn't able to enjoy it much at the expense of the constant threat that hung over her head. Especially now that Cane was no longer able to be by my side.For the last four days, Cane refused to leave his brother's side, even after Doctor Morgan said that his life was no longer at risk and all he needed to do was give the wound time to heal and the man to wake up on his own. We had to move Connor into another room, one with a more comfortable bed, and Cane hadn't left that room either.He ate, slept in that room, never leaving even for a few minutes to shower, and I couldn't blame him.I was extremely worried about him, though, since he hadn't said a word to anyone after that day.He was alwa

    Ella Smith...The tension in the room was suffocating. I stared at the men from my spot, waiting for them to continue speaking.I felt bad for Cane and his brother. Connor did not look like he was in the shape to stay up for too long and talk, but I could tell that they were not going to leave him alone until he told them where they could find the rest of the vipers."Who the heck is E?" Dante asked.Elijah had once told me about a person called E, who had been giving my father a great amount of money before he passed away, the money he left for me and no one else.Elijah explained to Dante about who E was and what they suspected him of. Then Connor continued to explain where that man came from."Like I said, I don't know his real name. He was a fighter in the fight clubs. He came out of nowhere. He fought well, and he caught Victor's attention. E was making Victor more money by fighting in his name, and Victor took that as a sign to take him into the circle." Connor explained, ma

    I felt kisses all over my face.What a great way to wake up in the morning.I pealed my eyes open and glanced at my husband with a smile stretching my lips.Ah, the gorgeous smile on his face made me want to faint. I reached up and tapped my pointing finger on my lips, making Elijah chuckle.He leaned down to press his lips against mine, giving me a sweet good morning kiss."Good morning." He said after he pulled away."Good morning." I whispered in a very small voice.The smile that spread across his face was proof of how right my decision was to go through with the surgery Doctor Morgan recommended.Six months after our beautiful baby girls Violet and Rose had been born, I had decided that it was time for me to go through with the voice box treatment.As always, Elijah was super supportive, as were everyone else in the mansion.Doctor Morgan helped me with the preparations for the surgery while the doctor who would perform it flew in just for my treatment.The old doctor warned me th

    I sat tense in the back seat of the car. Elijah had his arms around me as our driver drove us to the court house.Two and a half hours had passed since I helped my husband with his necktie, and the two of us left our mansion.We did eat out just like Elijah had promised we would. I was able to force myself to relax as I was sharing breakfast with my wonderful and attentive husband, but the second I realized that it was time for us to go to the court house, I started getting nervous again.Eating such a large portion of sweet pancakes and a full glass of milk might have been a big mistake because I felt like I was going to throw up.The feeling in my chest almost felt like I was on a scary ride at the amusement park that was shooting me up to the sky before I plummeted down to the ground and then back up to repeat the same process over and over again.It was a very sickening feeling, hence, the need to throw up."Just keep holding on to me, Love. I'm here for you." Elijah said, forcing

    Ella Smith...I gently moved both of my hands over my belly, looking at the many flowers in the garden.I had a feeling of dread at the pit of my stomach at the thought of the events that are meant to take place on the very next day.It's been almost a month since Julia came to this mansion to speak to me, and ask to me drop the charges against Elizabeth. At that time, I had no idea what those charged against my twin sister were on the account of how distant and distraught I was for those days.Seeing my mother was extremely hard for me. And listening to her was ten times harder. When Elijah first told me that she was here and that he was having her sent away, something deep inside of me wanted to see her. Somehow, I just knew it would be the last time I would ever see my mother.I wanted to hear her out, not just to close a chapter in my life. There was a dumb hope in my chest that was telling me that my mother was here to apologize and maybe try to mend things. It was stupid

    "Send that woman away." I ordered the new gate guard before I hung up the phone.I closed my eyes and pinched the bridge of my nose. Ella never told me to do anything to her mother, so I wasn't sure how to approach this yet. Should I have Julia meet the same fate as her favorite daughter, or should I have her forced away from the city?With how deep in the ground the Williamson's name was, it wouldn't be that hard to deal with the very last Williamson left in this town.I heard a knock on my door, and I instantly knew it was Ella, on the accounts of how my door was open and Ella would knock to get my attention, while the rest would just call out to get my attention.I looked up and watched as she slowly walked in. I noticed her bump seemed slightly bigger than last week. She's growing every single day.I offered her my hand, which she took the second she was near me. "Who was that?" She signed once she settled on my lap. "You heard me?" I asked, to which she nodded her head. "Both

    I stopped the car in front of the widely opened front door. The sky was starting to light up as it was close, or maybe even past five in the morning. I didn't even bother to cut the engine before I pushed the door open and stumbled out of the driver's seat.I ran to the front door and rushed into the hall.I had to stop at how metallic the air smelled. Bodies laid in front of me, some being moved by our men.Kevin was the first one who caught my eyes."What the heck happened here?" I yelled at him. "Elijah..." He called out, ready to explain why there were bodies in and out of the house. But I stopped him, understanding that I couldn't care less about the dead people."Where is my wife?" I quickly asked. In the split second Kevin remained silent, unimaginable thoughts started invading my mind. In that small second, it felt like my life had flashed before my eyes.Kevin sighed."She's in the hall to the dining room. She refused to leave. She's been there for a few hours now." Kevin

    Elijah Smith...It was a blood bath.Starting from the point we discovered one of our men dead in the surveillance room, up to the point we fought our way out of the mansion, we were bathing with blood.My shoulder was killing me. I caught the bullet when we first came across the men in the surveillance room, and it was making fighting for our life ten tines harder than it needed to be.The entire Viper mansion was ringing with gun shots. I was concerned for Cane and Connor, as they were the closest to Elliot.Once we killed our way out of the mansion and back into the nasty exit, they stopped following us, which was why we had to get to the car fast so we would be able to return to the mansion to help the twins and the Vipers.All Victor wanted us to do was get his daughter out of the mansion in case he wanted to burn it down, his words, not mine.And we did just that. After taking the girl to our car, we left her there with the getaway driver and the man who was following us before

    Ella Smith...Pain exploded on my shoulder. I instinctively dropped to the ground and reached out for my left shoulder.The bullet had grazed me, but it still forced tears to my eyes.I heard Detective Kevin cuss before he shot towards the direction the bullet came from.His gun only had two rounds left, and the second it stopped firing, he stood up to cover me with his body.More shots were fired, and I was afraid the detective might have taken them for me. But one looked over my shoulder, and I saw that the shots fired were coming from the stairs, and Dalinda was the one who had the gun in her hands this time."Get out of there." She called out as Milton rushed past her to help Detective Kevin and I to move to the stairs."Miles." The detective called out before he started running back to the sitting room.The split second we were all distracted, Elizabeth shot at us again.All of us dropped to the floor. Blood spilled down the stairs, and my eyes widened as I looked up to se

    Elijah Smith...Cane decided to stay in the surveillance room to keep an eye on everyone, especially Connor and Elliot.I left two men with him and left the surveillance room with Dante and one other man, and we decided to go to the rotting rooms to find Victor's daughter. I shot him a text to let him know that our group was the closest to his daughter and that we were about to help her out, that was so he would be able to focuse on the real task at hand."You really believe this marriage will work?" I whispered to Dante as we started making our way through the halls."It better work. You two are expecting a kid now." Dante replied, forcing me to roll my eyes. "You know damn well whose marriage I'm talking about." I hissed at him."Trust me, Elijah. It will work." Dante finally replied before we came to a stop at a cornor.I looked down at my phone when a low buzz came from it and saw that there was a text from Cane."Two armed men coming your way." Was what Cane sent me.I showe

    I didn't want to take my time to think about what I was going to do. I didn't want my hesitation to cost the kid his life.I quickly dropped my eyes to my phone."Miles is goig to the stirs." I wrote down with utmost speed, making spelling errors I couldn't care to check. It didn't matter if my spelling was wrong in the text. All that mattered was that the detective understood what I was trying to say.I looked at the box showing that sitting room. A small light came from the corner, and I could tell that it was the light from the detectives phone. I could see panic on his face when the light gave away his expression.He quickly sent me a text."Stop him." I didn't hesitate for another second.I looked up at the monitor to see where little Miles was. The second I saw that he was getting closer to the hall turning to the stairs, I rushed to the door. Shoving my phone back into my pants, I fumbled with the locks and pulled the door open before I ran to the door of the room.I rushed
