THE MISTAKE

💍 CHAPTER TWO 💍

"Walking around in a club, drunk as fuck is a dangerous thing for a woman especially one as breathtaking as you are "

Mila's eyes widened a bit at the hoarse voice that sent a multitude of shivers down her.

"Who are you? And who do you think you are to tell me what is good for me or not?! " The drunk woman snapped. A soft chuckle left the mysterious man's lips sending another wave of sensation down Mila and a hard gulp went down her throat.

She couldn't understand how a mere voice, a stranger's voice, turns her on. Was it because she has been sex deprived for years now or because she was drunk?

"Who are you and what do you...

"Shush " The man's index finger pressed against her plum lips making her forget what she wanted to say. His other hand gently made its way to her open back, caressing her down to her waist. An electrifying thrill radiated from Mila's fingertips down to her spine.

His arms circled her thin waist and he gently pulled her to him, her body pressing hard against his body. His deep grey eyes bored into hers, a mixture of pure lust and amusement visibly seen.

"It seems you need company tonight " He leaned over to her ear and whispered.

"I can offer you one... if you want me to. I can make this... the best night of your life and take you on a trip... to wonderland "

"Hmmm," Mila closed her eyes and moaned softly as the man dropped butterfly kisses on her neck and shoulder.

"Do you want this?" The mysterious man asked.

"Uhm." Mila bit her lips in a moan when his hand caress her hips down to her ass. Mila couldn't understand how a stranger's touch was doing this much to her. Maybe she was too drunk and her senses weren't intact. But there is no denying she wanted more of this. She wanted to know what Wonderland felt like with this man.

"Tell me, damsel. Do you want this? " The man asked once again. He was giving Mila the chance to make a choice. He wanted her approval even though she was drunk.

"Yes. I want this. I want you to screw me." Mila muttered breathlessly and opened her eyes. Their gaze locked and Mila could see the burning lust and desire in the man's eyes, the same desire controlling her now.

Without warning, the mysterious man claimed Mila's lips in a fierce kiss, touching her in all the right places. Mila was kissed madly till she was out of breath. She didn't even realize they were now in a room.

Mila could swear, she has never been kissed this way. Not even Killian has made her feel the burning sensations she was feeling under this man's touch. She wanted more of him. She wanted him to do more sinful things to her.

She knew it was wrong to cheat her husband this way but she can't push this man away, not when he was taking her over the moon.

TWO MONTHS LATER

Mila stared at the medical report in her hands, her eyes widened in horror and brimming with tears. She couldn't believe her eyes.

She was two months pregnant! This was probably one of the worst news Mila has gotten in her life. How could she have been that stupid? What was she thinking getting drunk that night?

Mila could recall everything that happened that night. How she shamelessly let another man pleasure her. Yes, she was drunk but the next morning when she woke up with only her lying naked on the bed, everything that happened played like a film in her mind. The only thing she couldn't remember was the man's face. She felt so ashamed of cheating on her husband that she hugged her bare body and broke down in tears.

And since that day, she has been trying to make things up between her and Killian without muttering a thing about what happened to anyone, except for Abigail. Even after everything, Killian's attitude toward her didn't change one bit. Instead, he became more maniac toward her.

"If he finds out about this result, what is he going to do to me? " Mila shuddered at that thought. Killian will know this isn't his child. He would kill her!

On getting home, Mila quickly wiped her tears and composed herself before making her way to her room. But to her horror, Killian was already there, waiting for her. Mila's heart almost jumped out of her chest.

"Where are you coming from? " Killian demanded with a deadly glare that made Mila start to tremble. She quickly held herself, hiding the result behind her back. Killian saw that and an ugly frown covered his face.

"I asked you a question, Mila, where are you coming from and what are you hiding? "

"It's nothing. I was feeling sick so I went to the hospital to run a checkup. It turned out it was just a minor cold "

Killian could already tell she was lying with the way her lips quivered. He took predatory steps toward her, his ice-blue eyes boring into her soul. Before Mila could step back, he grabbed the test result behind her much to her horror.

"Killian please don't! " She tried snatching it back from him but it was too late.

Killian's eyes protruded in horror. It quickly turned bloodshot, a swell of fury exploding inside him. He glared at Mila murderously.

"Killian let me... " Before Mila could start, an electrifying hard slap landed on her cheek and she crumbled to the floor.

"How dare you?! " Killian thundered furiously.

"So you've been cheating on me all this while? "

"All while I was working my ass off while you stay at home doing nothing, you've been letting another man screw you?! "

"Killian, it's not true "

Killian immediately grabbed Mila's hair and dragged her up from the ground. Mila cried in pain, her scalp burning.

"Killian please stop, you're hurting me "

"After everything I did for you, Melina. How can you do this to me? How can you have another man's bastard growing inside you?! " Mila was shoved violently but luckily she landed on the bed with her stomach, her eyes shut close in scare.

But then a certain wave of anger shivered down Mila and she shot Killian a hard glare. How dare this incompetent fool try to hurt her unborn child? What if she had fallen with her stomach...on the floor?

Mila didn't understand what kicked into her, whether it was her motherly instinct. She got up from the bed, her hand around her stomach in a protective manner. Before the stupid man could say any other thing, a hard slap was thrown on his cheek.

Mila slapped him!

Killian's eyes widened in horror.

"How dare you?! "

"Enough! " Mila thundered in repelling anger.

"I've heard enough of your nonsense, Killian! " Mila didn't know where the sudden courage came from. All she wanted to do was protect the baby inside her from this monster!

"Even after I've done everything for you. You still don't want to change. Well, I've heard enough! I am pregnant and I'm not going to stay still and watch you put my baby at risk. You've crossed all your limits, Killian...

"I swear to God, if you lay another finger on me, I will kill you! "

Killian was shocked to the bone seeing the burning anger in Mila's eyes. She has never looked at him with such hatred. She has never raised her voice at him.

But he was only shocked for a moment. He scoffed in disbelief, grabbed the file on the bed, and fling it to Mila's face.

Mila glanced at the divorce paper that was thrown to her face. She looked up at Killian in shock but deep down she wasn't that disappointed. She's been considering ending their marriage after that night two months ago because she was getting fed up with everything.

"Sign that divorce paper and get out of this house for good. I can never leave with a cheating whore like you! " Killian spat and started throwing Mila's belongings to her.

Brokenhearted, Mila grabbed the nearest pen and put her signature on all the required places before dropping the divorce papers for Killian. Without uttering a word, she headed to the door, ignoring all her clothes that he was throwing to the floor and the curses that were being laid on her by Killian.

She didn't care about taking anything and all that was on her mind was getting away from this house. She was leaving and is never coming back to this man. She was done living as a slave and weakling.

Her only mistake was loving the wrong person and she has suffered enough for that one mistake.

×. ×. ×

Mila stared at the familiar gate with tears brimming in her eyes. It's been five years since she last stepped foot in this house, the one place she once called her home.

But she had rejected all of this; her own family, to be with a man who never appreciated what she sacrificed for him. No wonder her parents were against her marriage to Killian as if they knew who he was from day one.

But she is back now to make things right with them. She is back to apologize to them.

But to the poor woman's shock;

"Don't you dare step a foot inside this house! " She was immediately halted the moment she was about to enter. She looked up and saw her father glaring at her with nothing but indignation and hate.

"Dad..."

"The guts you have to come here after cheating on your husband. What gave you the morale to shamelessly step foot inside this compound carrying another man's child? Haven't you disgraced us enough?!" This time around it was her mother speaking.

"Mom... " Mila's voice broken a million times. It turned out even before Mila got here, Killian has already told her parents everything. Who knows the kind of twisted lies he must have fed them with!

"Mom... Dad... "

"From today onward, I, Throndsen no longer take you, Melina, as my daughter. You've been banned from stepping foot into this house again!

"Guards! Throw this whore out of here! "

Everything happened so fast and Mila wasn't even given a chance to speak. Before she could utter a word, she was hauled out of the gate like some stranger, like she was some piece of trash.

Mila was shattered to the core. She couldn't believe that even her own family turned their back on her without even blinking an eye. Just like that, they disowned her.

Not knowing where else to go, she went to the house of the only family she knew would welcome her; her aunt. Mrs. Barbera was Mila's aunt and the only relative Mila was close to because she treated her as her child even from day one.

Mrs. Barbera welcomed Mila with open arms and let the broken woman cry in her arms after Mila narrated to her everything that happened.

She let Mila spend the night at her place and a week later after making sure Mila was now recovering, she phoned Abigail to come over. By the time Mila told Abigail everything, the short woman began to boil in rage. But there was nothing she can do anymore. Mila already ended her marriage with Killian and she was more than happy about that.

"So what do you plan on doing now, Mila? " Mrs. Barbera asked.

"I've made up my mind, Aunt. I'm keeping this baby and I'm going to give it everything I have. But I'm leaving this city for good. I can't raise my child here " Mila's answer didn't soothe well with Abigail.

"But where will you go, Mila? How will you take care of the child and yourself alone? "

"I've already made up my mind and I'm not changing it, Abigail " Mila was adamant.

"It's ok. I support your decision, Mila " Mrs. Barbera didn't have a problem with Mila's choice.

"Fine, let me go with you. At least, I can support you "

"No, Abigail. I want you to stay here and live your life. You've already accomplished a lot in this city. You can't just abandon everything and come with me. I'm the one who brought this upon myself so let me face the consequences "

"Mila is right Abigail, you should stay here. I will go with her instead and I will take very good care of her. I know of a small city we can move to. I already have a house there, So you don't have to worry, my dear "

After much convincing Abigail agreed.

Five days later and Mila was ready to leave Westwood, her hometown. She and Mrs. Barbera boarded the first flight and after biding by to Abigail, they both entered.

As the plane departed, Mila looked back at everything that has happened to her so far and all she felt was nothing but regret. She held her stomach and mumbled,

"Don't worry baby, Mommy will take very good care of you because you're all I have now. I will do anything within or not within my power to give you the best life ever. I promise"

Then, deep inside, with so much anger and dismay, she swore:

"I will make all of you pay for what you'll did to me. You all threw me out of your lives when I needed you'll all the most. But don't you worry Killian, I will prove both you and my parents wrong. I will show you all that I'm not a disgrace. I am Mila Throndsen and I won't back down till I win...
