Thank you for reading.
Mia. Waking up in the middle of the night feeling thirsty, I gently slide from Rico's arms, careful enough not to wake him. Thankfully, I don't crave ice cream anymore. That stuff was cold, especially in the middle of the night. I press a lingering kiss on Rico's forehead and smile at his cute sleeping face. I would want to wake up at this face for the rest of my life. Was he seriously proposing yesterday? Getting married at eighteen is crazy and in case he proposed to me right now, I would wait until I am at least twenty to marry him. And I am not popping any more babies for him until I am married. However, Rico is a gentle lover and I would hate being away from him or letting anyone else have him. Even when I wasn't pregnant, he has never treated me roughly in bed and I still wonder how he does it with all the hard muscles on his body. Has he been holding himself for my sake? Since there are always men around the house, I walk to the closet to dress appropriately before heading
Rico. "Hey, wake up" I am startled from my sleep by persistent tapping on my shoulder. "Mia is in trouble, Rico, wake up" The voice comes again, clearing all the drowsiness from my eyes."What?" I whisper in alarm as I quickly sit up and get out of bed altogether. I stare at the teenage boy in front of me with furrowed brows trying to ignore the murderous headache I just woke up with.. Fuck, she is not here. "Where is she? " I enquire pulling on a shirt. Fuck, I shouldn't have slept."Downstairs, her mother came back and ambushed the guards. We need guns, everyone there is armed" He says running to the closet and I quickly run behind him. The boy opens one of Mia's drawers and gives me two guns before grabbing two for himself. Without another word, I rush out of the room, and just before I can take the stairs, the wicked voice reaches my ears, and my blood runs cold. "I am going to rip out the bastard in it and behead you the same way you did with Ryan" No. I skip two stairs at a
Mia I open my eyes and gently touch my stomach with a relieved sigh. Thank God I am not dead or in any pain. "You are awake" I look beside me and nod at Matt. Fabio, Kayla, and Rico's mother are also here. "Oh dear, you got us worried" Rico's mum quickly takes my right hand in hers and Kay takes my left. Both women sit on my sides as they worriedly stare at me. "I am, okay" I mutter ignoring the slight headache. I try sitting up and Rico's mum quickly helps me up and places pillows behind me to lean on. This reminds me of the cruel woman who gave birth to me. "What happened?" I question looking at Fabio, no one was home when I was attacked. "When we took your mum, we were attacked on the way by Maxim's men. We were fighting them when she took the chance to escape with some of the men. We lost them and we didn't know where to search so we went in the wrong direction. When we came home, the guards we left at the house were all tied up in the cell. We didn't find you so I calle
Mia. I kiss Rico with my all. I can't believe he regained his memories. This is the best news I have heard all my life. "I love you so much, babe" I hold his cheeks and lovingly stare at him. I missed him so much. Heaven knows how happy I am right now. "I love you too, princess. Are you feeling, okay? You are not hurting anywhere are you?" Rico places his palm on my tummy and I smile shaking my head. I am perfectly fine, especially now that he is here. I gently hold his head when he lifts my shirt and places a gentle kiss on my stomach. Well, this is a first. "You know what?" Rico smiles kissing my forehead. This is one of his rear smiles and they always make my heart jump in ecstasy. "No. Tell me" I eagerly whisper. "We are having twins. Isn't that amazing?" Rico blurts out, and all color drains from my face. "What?" Oh! Fuck, I am in trouble. No doubt I will grow fat and lazy. Is that why I eat a lot of food? Kay was right. Why didn't Kay have twins too? " Are you sure? Who sa
Mia. After making the phone calls, the guys decided to meet up at Rico's for further discussions. I am lucky because all of them agreed without a second thought. "Should we check now?" Rico begs and I shake my head in refusal. He is more eager than I am."No. Let it be a surprise, Rico. We will know their genders when I give birth" I sweetly smile at him and he frowns instead. I am going to frustrate this man until he gives up on getting me pregnant again. "But what about buying baby stuff? You know we should start preparing earlier, right?" I wish I shared the same enthusiasm for kids as my man does. He will be a perfect father, just like mine. However, both of us should be okay with every step we are taking. Rico needs to consider what I want in this life too. I have been living in a criminal world all my life. I am about to liberate myself, and I should be able to enjoy the freedom of a free world without having to pop out babies every now and then. I wanna enjoy my young years
Mia. I chuckle at the sight of Sean. Miracles do happen after all. After betraying me, he came back only to pretend nothing happened. To make matters worse, he is actively drinking and laughing with everyone. "Is that...? " Neera follows my gaze and I nod. Such people need to be eliminated instantly. Traitors are a very lethal poison."Yes, it's Sean. You want to keep your job, right?" I face her and she quickly nods. " Good. Bring me his head and you will be greatly rewarded" The playfulness from earlier is completely wiped from my face and so is Neera. I think at this point, I need to be smart enough to get Maxim. As they say, when the leader is gone, the puppets won't be there anymore. Maxim's people will keep coming all day and all night."I will help, beautiful" Ed follows Neera and I walk into the house in search of Fabio. It doesn't take me long to find him. He, Carl, Rico, and Marcus are sitting together and they appear to be in a deep conversation. They instantly stop
Mia. "Mum, I am hungry" I whine hugging her from behind and she chuckles. Rico's mother loves it when I address her as Mum. This also means she will give me a whole lot of food. I must be carrying two hungry men in my stomach. "I know, honey. I can tell" She stretches her hand to grab a plate and I pull away to give her space. This woman can cook. The sight of the fried chicken makes my mouth water. So brown and delicious. The aroma doesn't lie. "Here" She hands me a plate full of chicken and I don't waste any more seconds. I moan at the first bite, so spicy and crunchy. Goodness! It's like an orgasm in my mouth. "Go take a sit" She gently pushes me forward and I nod walking to the living room where Rico and his friends are sitting. I silently sit on Rico's welcoming lap and once again, their whispering stops. From how the guys are staring at me, I can tell they are silently gossiping about my eating habits in their heads, and it makes me self-conscious. " Did I do something wrong
Rico. "Is this how you treat, Kay?" I turn to Carlos the moment Mia leaves the room. "No. Of course not, Rico. It's just I am trying but sometimes that baby keeps crying and it's tiring you know" Carl defensively gets up and approaches me. "Don't you care that she gets tired too? She was crying for fuck sake" I whisper yell so as not to wake up the baby. "I feel bad about it, okay? That's why I am going to talk to her" Carl instantly pulls his shirt to join his wife in the bathroom but I quickly hand over his son to him. "That can wait, at least tuck your son to sleep first. I support her leaving for the two days. Don't dump all the responsibility on your wife" I whisper feeling so disappointed. I never knew this was how he behaved. "You will help me, right? I mean, if she goes to her dad's""Sadly, no, brother. In case it escaped your mind, I have a pregnant woman who needs as much care as the baby in your arms" I shake my head walking out of my guestroom. My brother is a lot o
