So, do you think that the baby is Diablo's?
Lexi:Flashback:I kept my eyes on the test for a few seconds as tears fell from my eyes. My hands shook, and it took everything in me to control my shaking, not wanting this to become a habit as I bit my bottom lip, stopping the sobs from escaping my mouth. No, I couldn’t be carrying another one of Louis’s children. The man was not going to be a father, I was not going to allow it. I wasn’t going to allow him to ruin my life more than he already has.My lips quivered as I threw the test in the trash, covering my face with both my hands. I knew not to allow anyone to see it, if word got to Louis, then there was no way out of this. He was going to be sure that I didn’t lose this baby no matter what I did. The maids would need to be bribed to keep this from him, and judging by the fact that I couldn’t go to a hospital until he was away from the city, and God knew how long it would be before that happened, I was going to need to lose this baby my way.“Think, Alexandra, think. You are go
Sienna:I looked out the window of the bedroom, lost in the number of thoughts that I had in mind.I knew that I wanted to take a shower. I needed to, it was going to be the one way for me to be able to focus. But I couldn’t bring myself to do so.The day didn’t make sense, and Lexi’s words, which were still playing in my head, only seemed absurd to me. It was like the woman came to argue with me. Her dress, attitude, everything just played in my head, but neither one of them made sense, and I couldn’t find a reason behind what she did, I tried to, but nothing seemed to work. Hell, no matter what I thought of, I couldn’t help the negative thoughts that played in my head.“Did I do anything wrong to offend her? Was she taking her anger out on me?” I muttered, voicing out my thoughts, knowing that despite no one being able to help me with this, she was my best friend, no one was going to know what was bothering her unless it was me. And the thing was, I couldn’t find out. I tried to brai
Diablo:I ran my fingers through my hair as I drove, knowing that I broke every single protocol that we had in the family.Sienna’s eyes played in my head, and for one second, I wanted to go back to her, I knew that I had to apologize to her. She didn’t deserve what happened, she had done nothing wrong with it.However, I knew that I was going to hurt her even more if approached her, I knew that speaking to her when I was angry wasn’t going to solve anything; it was going to make them worse, and because of that I kept accelerating, needing to clear my head as I knew that the day was not going the way that I planned for it to go.I didn’t even know how I was going to explain this to her if I had to. If the baby that Lexi was carrying was mine, of course, that would have to mean that she was with child, I was going to have to deal with it somehow, and that fact alone was not one that I wanted to deal with. It wasn’t one that I wanted to end up having on my head.Her words about aborting
Sienna:“You are coming with me,” Alonzo said, taking me off guard as he walked inside the room looking like he’s seen a ghost.“What’s wrong?” I asked, frowning at the man as I got up from bed. He wasn’t looking at me, knowing that he walked inside without actually knocking on the door. “I am decent, by the way.”He pulled his phone out of his pocket, not answering me as it rang, and I could see and read his anger in his eyes. “Take him to the hospital, we are on our way.”“What the hell is going on?” I asked, snapping at Alonzo as he hung up. He was quiet for a few seconds, clearly debating on what he was going to say, and I couldn’t help but find myself growing worried. “Alonzo, you staying quiet is neither going to help explain this nor is it going to help me understand what is happening.”“Did you and Diablo fight?” He asked, making me frown.“He came back annoyed. I did my best not to argue with him, but he came back very angry. I assumed that something happened, but he seemed t
Alonzo:“You need to eat.” Sienna said, walking toward me with a sandwich in hand. “It is not the best that we can find, but it is the best that I can get in the hospital. You’ve been standing for hours, and you are going to weaken.”“I’m not hungry, Sienna.” I said, and she smiled.“I wasn’t asking. You have to eat something. Your system needs it, and you know that there is a lot that will find its way with us right now. You are going to need to be at your full strength to be able to cope with it.” She said, looking at me, her eyes softening as she waited for what I was going to tell her. “I know that you are worried and I understand both your fear and pain, but right now…”“It is not fear that I am feeling, Sienna.” I said, stopping him. “We are born into this world knowing that we are going to be dealing with bullshit.”“It is okay to be in pain, then. He is your best friend, and it is only logical for you to fear for his life, but as you said, we are born into this world knowing th
Sienna:I walked out of the infirmary room where I was sitting, making sure to be slow with my steps only for an arm to wrap around me, Alonzo’s.“I can assume that you are done being rude?” I asked, and he chuckled before guiding me to a chair. He gave me a juice box, and I removed the straw, ignoring the haziness that I felt before taking a sip of the drink.“I didn’t know.” He said, and I nodded.“Don’t worry, I understand that you’re worried about him. To a certain extent, you can’t be blamed. You have more enemies around.” I said, and he looked away from me for a second.“You could have left. Or you could have been free of this marriage if something happened to him, why are you fighting so hard for it not to happen?” He asked, taking me off guard with his question, and I sighed.“Sometimes, you have to make the good out of everything that happens to you. I understand that my reason might not make any sense to you, but Diablo was kind to me. When I found myself being alone, he was
Sienna:“You can leave, Sienna.” Netania said, catching me off guard as she took a seat beside me in the waiting room, looking at Diablo as he slept in that ER room through a glass window that separated us from him. “You have exhausted yourself enough. He doesn’t seem to be waking up, and you are going to need to regain your strength as well.”“I am fine here. I will be staying here, and if I need to doze off, I can just lay my head on the armrest. I want to be by his side if he wakes up.” I said, and she frowned in confusion as she looked at me.“Anyone who sees you would mistaken you for old lovers. You went ahead and donated your blood to him without hesitation, and now this.” She said, looking at her son. “Why the sudden urge to want to be with him? I know that the two of you didn’t want to marry, why do you suddenly want to do this for him?”“I don’t suddenly want to do this for him, Netania. I am his wife, and though yes, I will admit, it is not out of love. The two of us might
Sienna:Flashback:“The fact that you are calling, Diablo, amazes me. Is your first task as Capo to call me?” My father asked as I sat at his desk, reading through a paper with him, doing the math that he didn’t want to have his accountant doing.He put the man on speaker, and I couldn’t help but shake my head, knowing that my father was not going to pay him any attention. His own father was never a friend to us, but we shared one boarder, at least, until we left the city for him to deal with. Our part was done here, and I agreed with my father on the fact that we needed to leave this place. “I need help. I know that we are not the closest of allies, but I need your men’s help to save my sister.” He said, making me frown in confusion.“Why would they need to save an eleven year old girl? What harm could she be in?” He asked, mocking Diablo. The man didn’t say anything to respond, making me frown in confusion. I was sixteen at the time, I knew that he was two years older than I was. T
