As I looked around in search of Lisa, my phone rang. Ring ring ring. “Hello. Uncle.” I answered the call as I sniffed.“Where are you guys? Are you okay?” He asked and I could hear the worry in his voice. I sniffed again before I answered.“I’m good. Nan McPhee is dead.” I announced.“What?!” Uncle Matt said, shocked.“He killed her but I swear, I will not spare him when I find him. I’ll kill him, Uncle. I swear.” I threatened as I hold back my tears and made my hand into a fist.“Calm down, Son.” Uncle Matt said. “Where are you guys.” He asked and I told him I’ll send him the address immediately I drop the call, I was looking for Lisa. He hung up and I immediately sent him our location which I’m not sure he got because just as if sent it, the service left my phone and I groaned in frustration.“Lisa? Lisa?” I heard Alannah call and I rushed to where she was. Lisa was also tied down and fortunately, she was still alive. Alannah and I struggled to untie her but the knot was tied too ti
**ALANNAH**“What?” Connor asked and I nodded as I repeat myself.“That is my uncle.” I said again in shock.“Eddie Smith.” Uncle Matt announced as he walked back into the small barn and I nodded.“How did you know where we were? You got our location?” Connor asked and Uncle Matt shook his head.“No.” He answered.“Then how?” Connor asked again.“Alannah told me where you guys are, she’d called to inform that you were in potential danger and had sent the location, we came here as soon as we could.” Uncle Matt explained and Connor smiled.“Thank you.” Connor said to him as we made our way out of the barn. “Lisa!” I called as I ran towards my best friend. “Are you Okay?” I asked and she nodded as she swallowed hard.“I’m Okay.” She managed to say. “You should’ve seen Mr. Connor, he beat the shit out of all of them. He’s a freaking Superman.” She added and that was how I knew my best friend was fine. I looked up to see Connor talking with Uncle Matt and I smiled. They both walked p
“Connor, I have something to tell you.” I said as we got into the room. “What’s that, Baby girl? Are you Okay?” He asked, pulling off his clothes.“Yes. No. I’m fine, I’m good.” I told him and something about the way I answered made him walk closer to me.“What is it then?” He asked, lifting my face up.“I’m pregnant.” I rushed out the words like I was eating something very hot. Connor dropped his hand and moved a few steps farther away from me.“What?” He said, confused. “You’re what?” He asked again.“I’m pregnant.” I repeated. “I’ve been aware of it for a month now and I couldn’t bring myself to tell you..” I started saying. “I know you’re not ready to be a father and it’s fine if you don’t want to have anything to do with me anymore or the baby. I just thought it’s only right that you should know. You’re the father.” I said and he still looked shocked.Connor didn’t say a word to me, he slowly walked out of the room and I laid on the bed devastated. “I probably shouldn’t have tol
Connor helped me to the bathroom and also assisted with my bath like I was a little baby, he was so gentle like I’d break if he does something stupid.“Goodnight little one.” Connor whispered before kissing my belly and I only smiled a little.“When are we holding McPhee’s Funeral?” I asked and he sighed.“I’m three days time.” Connor answered, “it totally skipped my mind to break that news to Adrian and Julia, they love her.” He added.“I know. You were too excited.” I said and he smiled.“I still can’t believe I’ll be a father soon.” He smiled again. “It’s exciting.” He added.“It is.” I said as I yawned.“Oh. You should go to sleep now, it’s been a long day and you’re most likely tired.” He said.“Goodnight.” I said, resting in his embrace.“Goodnight baby.” Connor whispered back and I closed my eyes to give into the sweet arms of sleep.The loud clanking downstairs and the door opening woke me up. “Good Morning.” Connor said in a singsong way. I rubbed my eyes before I opened them
Getting home, Connor made sure I took my supplements, we decided to stay back and watch TV for a while before going to rest.“The Multibillionaire and most eligible bachelor is set to be a father soon? Are these rumors true....” Came from the TV and Connor immediately switched it off.“How did they know?” I asked, puzzled. We’d made sure to not let anyone else in on the news except close families and maybe the servants around the house.“I don’t know but things about me don’t pass by the media that easily, they always find it all out eventually.” Connor answered.Ring ring. The doorbell rang and one of the maids had gone to answer it.“Connor! My man!” Adrian called as he made his way to us. Julia followed suit and gave me a hug.“Congratulations.” Julia said. “Thank you.” I smiled and turned to Adrian who also congratulated and gave me a peck.“And I’m sorry about Nanny McPhee. We’ll all miss her.” She added.“Yeah. I’ll really miss having her around.” Adrian added.“It’s Okay, lets
I opened my eyes in a dark room with a fuzzy head. My head and ears ringing, I tried so hard to remember what had happened but the more I tried, the more my head ached. “Where am I?” I asked myself as I tried to stand up and it was then I realized I was tied to a chair with my hands behind my back, my legs tied up too and my mouth duct taped. I groaned.“The more you try, the more painful it becomes.” I heard a familiar voice say, I strained my eyes to look properly and I saw Steve, Connors dad. I struggled more on the chair and tried to say something that only came out in a muffle as my mouth was taped already, he lifted his hands up and a man, My Uncle, came closer to remove the tape from my mouth, I spat and inhaled.“What do you want?” I said.“You know what I want. Connor does too.” He answered. “You just tell him to step down and everyone is fucking happy. That son of a bitch is stubborn and if anyone could talk to him, it’s you.” He added.“And you really think I will?” I said
I was going to handover the papers to him when we heard gunshots, ducking, I jumped over to where Alannah was standing in a bid to protect her. Uncle Matt’s and his men shooting became rampant and we made our way to the safety, I saw my dad trying to escape and I immediately ran over to him, pouncing on him. I slowed him down.“You don’t want to do this.” He said trying to stand up. “I’ve been waiting for years to do this.” I punched him and he spat out blood. “That’s for Alannah.” I said. “This is for Nanny McPhee.” I said as I punched him again. “And this..” I said making my hand in a strong fist. “.... is for my mother.” I punched him hard not giving him a chance to breath or even speak. He was still so strong because he immediately rolled over and was on his feet in no time.“No fucking time pass by that I don’t remember how you killed her.” I let my anger surge through me as I dashed to where he was, he spun around quickly not letting me get to him.“She killed herself.” He answ
After waiting a while, a doctor finally came outside and we all stood up to walk over to him.“How is he?” Julia asked before any of us could speak.“Calm down Julia. Let the doctor talk.” Uncle Matt said and the doctor let out a small smile.“He’s stable now.” The doctor announced and Uncle Matt and I let out a sigh of relief, although we were shocked, Alannah held her chest for what seem like minutes before getting control of her breathing.“Can we see him now?” Julia asked, cleaning her tears with her palm.“Yes. But, he’s asleep now, I suggest you get him something to eat and let him rest before getting to see him.” The doctor said, leaving us alone as we said our thanks.“He’s Fine!” Julia screamed, jumping on me and all smiles.“Yes, Yes He is.” I laughed too and after some time of celebration, we all made our way to go freshen up and make some food for Adrian when we get home.“You need to take a rest.” I said to Alannah and she smiled, hugging and holding me tight.“I’m just
*****5 Years Later**** **ALANNAH**“Ariel!” I called. “Get back here!” I added as I ran around the house chasing after my toddler. Having a baby isn’t what I thought it would be for me, I would be occasional stressed out and the little one isn’t helping. Running around and trying to catch her, my phone rang.Ring ring ring came from my phone, I paused for a while to see who it was and I smiled as I saw it was Connor.“Hey baby.” He called from over the phone with a smile.“Hey.” I answered breathlessly. “Ariel, No, Stop!” I yelled again and I heard Connor laugh at me.“What’s going on over there?” He asked still laughing and doing nothing to stop his laughter.“Your daughter.” I started saying. “She’s driving me nuts.” I added, wincing dramatically like I wanted to cry. “I’m tired, I need a break, a vacation where she doesn’t get to come.” I ranted.“Oh, So now she’s my daughter?” He asked and I just know he did that with a raised eyebrow. “You’ll have a vacation but definitely

“Connor, I have something to tell you.” I said as we got into the room. “What’s that, Baby girl? Are you Okay?” He asked, pulling off his clothes.“Yes.
