Selena POV "Push..." the doctor screamed as I lay on the labour room table biting on the cloth in my mouth. Sweaty and in pains.The doctor's words ring in my ears as I grip the edges of the table, every muscle in my body straining with effort.

But the soon turns into hours.I've been in labor for hours now, and every muscle in my body trembling with fatigue. my body is drenched in sweat, my clothes clinging to my skin, and I can feel my strength draining away.I grip the sheets, my teeth clenched so tight that the cloth in my mouth becomes soggy, “ A consent form needs to be signed, this is taking too long!” The doctor said to the nurse, “ get her husband to sign the consent form” she said to the nurse who dashed out of the labour room.“ you can do it, try….push….” She shouts.I tried, I really tried but I couldn't anymore I felt so weak….“ Her husband isn't outsid
Selena POV " Theo Santos your turn"I pick up Theo and carry him to the nurse, who smiles warmly at Theo and I. "Hello there, Theo," she coos. "Let's get you a vaccine so you can stay healthy."I watch as the nurse prepares the syringe."Ready?" the nurse asks, and I nod, closing my eyes as the needle pricks Theo's skin.After the vaccine is administered, Theo lets out a wail, his face scrunching up in pain. I quickly scoop him up, cradling him against my chest and shushing him gently as he wails so loud."There, there, sweetheart," I whisper, trying to soothe him. "It's over now. you did great."The nurse gives Theo a sticker, and I gave him a smile, trying to distract him from the pain.Finally done, i called James. " We are done"." I'll be there ma'am" he replied.Within minutes James came, we got in and he zoomed off. " To Lisa's" I said to James who nods and zoomed off maintaining the child on board speed.In no time we arrived at Lisa's. I opened the door to find her sleeping
Selena POV “ He has a faint breath” the paramedic said, laying Theo on the gurney.I stood there in panic, praying silently for Theo to push through. The paramedics work desperately trying to revive Theo. Every breathless moment seems to last an eternity as I watch, my heart racing, my hands clenched. I couldn’t take my eyes off them, as if my gaze alone could revive him.Minutes later one of the paramedics slowly rises from the gurney, staring down at Theo’s body as he takes hold of Theo in his arms and I see Theo go pale, the paramedics shake him, lying still he didn't move."I'm so sorry, ma'am," he says softly. "There's nothing more we can do.”His words felt like a dagger stab. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't think, my brain went blank, I lost my balance and fell to the ground. Other paramedic try to pick me up but I couldn't move. " It can't be true right? It's a prank right? Where are the cameras?" I asks." Ma'am take heart, he is gone." I can't process what is happening, c
Selena POV " His family can come in!" A woman emerged from the door behind mom and Dad"." You all can go in" one of the guys said to mom, Dad and Jasper?." What about her?" Mom asked." We will hold her back," the other guys replied.I stood there hearing all that they were saying but I couldn't understand anything. I watch Dad, mom and Jasper walking away to the direction where a woman stood behind them. I took a step closer but the two guys blocked my path again I stood there, frozen in place, my mind mixed up with confusion and fear. I watch as mom, Dad and Jasper walk away with the woman, disappearing around the corner and out of sight.For a moment, I'm left alone in the hallway, unsure of what to do or where to go. I feel lost, as if the ground beneath me has disappeared. And then, the sobs start to come, uncontrollable and wracking my body.As the sobs wrack my body, I slip to the floor, my knees buckling beneath you. I bury my face in your hands, tears streaming down my c
Selena POV"Don't you dare turn this on me!" I screamed. "I did everything I could for Theo! I was there for him every single day. You don't know what it's like to love someone that much and then lose them!"Jasper's face turned red in anger. "You think I don't know loss? My own mom died when I was a kid. And now I've lost my son too. But you can't see past your own grief to acknowledge mine." I glare at Jasper, In a fit of rage, I reach for the picture frame on the nightstand and hurl it at Jasper, the glass shattering as it hits the wall behind him."Get out!" I scream, my voice trembling. "Get out of my sight, you selfish bastard! I never want to see you again!”Jasper straightens his back, "Fine," he replied, "If that's what you want. But don't come crying to me when you realize you've made a huge mistake. I can't help you if you won't let me.""Go to hell," I snarl, "You were never here for me, even when I needed you most. You don't deserve to be a part of my life."Jasper lets
"Congratulations, Miss Kings," Dr. Andrew said as he reviewed my test results. "You’re six weeks pregnant.""Six weeks pregnant?" I repeated in shock, trying to process the news. "Are you sure?""Yes, I’m sure," he confirmed with a knowing smile.I had known deep down that the possibility existed, considering my intimate relationship with Colin, but the reality of it still caught me off guard."If I may ask, the father here with you? If yes, he should be here as well."I shook my head slowly, "He's busy with work and couldn't make it today."Dr. Andrew sighed. "I see. Well, make sure you get plenty of rest, and remember to come for regular checkups for your baby's safety.”I nodded and accepted the test results, clutching them tightly as I left the hospital. Though the news came as a shock, joy now filled me. I smiled and rubbed what would eventually be a baby bump, already feeling a connection with the little one.Once outside, I reached into my bag and retrieved my cell phone to cal
The hand I had held up to push the door open fell at Colin’s words. “A plaything?” I repeated in a whisper. I was nothing but a plaything to him? How could that be? My heart constricted, my love and commitment to him shattering in an instant.But that was just the beginning. I moved closer to the door, almost putting my ear against it. “I thought you were into her?” David said, though it was more of a question than a statement.“Yeah, as a sex toy,” Colin declared callously. “She thinks I love her, but she forced our relationship, I never asked her out. It was all on her. I played along and proposed to her because… well, I liked her as bed warmer.Colin's response, cold and devoid of remorse, struck me, each word like a stab in my heart. How could I have been so ignorant?Thank goodness I’d never told him who I was. He’d never connected my last name with the Kings’ group, either, so he knew nothing of my social status or my family’s wealth.The conversation continued with a female vo
