~Amanda~

I felt as though time was moving in slow motion.My hand trembled, almost dropping the cellphone

The last moment that I had with my daughter replayed in my head.She was so happy and she looked so healthy.I shook my head in denial, refusing to accept what Mr. Tony had just told me.Tears flowed from my eyes uncontrollably.

“No! No!This can't be!It can't be my Ariana.”I mumbled, breathing in difficulty.”Please tell me it's not true.Maybe you’re mistaken,my daughter was okay in the morning.We even talked and laughed.Please tell me this is some sort of prank.”I pleaded, wiping tears from my eyes using the back of my hand.

It was quiet for a while on the other end of the call and that only made me anxious.I heard him heavy a deep sigh.

“I'm sorry but it's the truth,Mrs. Amanda.You need to make it to the hospital quickly because the doctor is asking for Ariana's parents.We are at Jason's Hospital.”The little hope that I had left crushed

    ~Amanda~“What do you mean I don't have enough blood to donate to my daughter?”I asked in confusion because I couldn't understand what she meant.“I think you're mistaken because I have been taking good care of myself!I have been eating alot of fruits and vegetables.”I protested,not believing what the lab technician said.“I'm sorry but that is the truth,Mrs.”She looked at me with apologetic eyes.“Liar!”I yelled at the lady and she took a step back,fear written all over her face.“Can you please leave us alone?”I heard Lucia ask the lady and soon after the laboratory door shut.“You need to calm down,Amanda.”Lucia said in a gentle voice,”How?”I asked in almost a whisper but loud enough for Lucia to hear.Lucia was speechless when she heard my question.I could imagine how I was supposed to calm down when my daughter's life was at risk.No!There was no way I was going to calm down.“How am I supposed to calm down when my daughter's life is hanging by a

    ~AmandaMy heart ached inside my chest when I admitted the damn truth that I was in no position to donate blood to my daughter even if I wanted to.There is no painful feeling compared to a parent being in no position to hold his/her child when they are in great danger of losing their lives.I know anyone who has a kid out there can relate…It was silent on the other end of the phone call for a while,perhaps he was taking in the information that I had just fed him.“You…you mean Ariana?”For the first time in my entire life,I heard him stutter.I could hear the uncertainty in his voice.He couldn't believe that Aria is his child.I mean our child.I knew he would react that way because he never new about it for fucking five years.“Yes,”I heaved a deep sigh.”Ariana is our daughter and she needs your help.The clock is ticking and we don't have that much time.Please save our daughter.I can't lose her.We can't lose our daughter.You’re the only person who can save her

    ~Gabriel~“Amanda please wake up!Please don't do this to me.Our daughter needs you,she needs us.You can't leave us when we need you the most.I know I have wronged you big time and I'm sorry.I’m sincerely sorry.Please wake up!”I pleaded, holding her in my arms and hoped that she would be able to hear my plea and open her eyes but…all that was in vain.She couldn't even bart her eyelashes and that only made me more worried.Fear crept in my heart when the thought of possibly losing Amanda popped in my head.No!I wasn't ready to lose her and never will be ready to lose her.Not when we have so many things that are unsettled between us.“Amanda!”I shouted, holding her so close to my chest.I have been wanting to hold her this close,but not in situation.I been looking forward to holding her close to my chest as we laugh,talk and tease around as I looked into those brown Hazel eyes that I loved so much.“What happened to her?”Lucia inquired and I could feel worry in her v

    ~Gabriel~I felt unworthy to look at Ariana's face because…I have been missing her entire life.I couldn't imagine all the difficulties that she went through growing up with a single parent.I couldn't help it but imagine Aria watching other kids happily playing with their Daddies.I was mad at myself when the mere thought of it popped into my mind.“Please forgive Daddy for not knowing that you existed.''I apologise once again, guilt consuming me.I know a simple “sorry” wasn't enough to make up for all those days that I missed her birthday.I know a simple sorry wasn't enough to make up for everytime Ariana yearned for father's love but I was not there to give it to her.I know a simple apology wasn't enough to make up for all those days that she fell sick but I was not around to take care of her.I know a simple apology was not enough for not being around when she was born.However,I hoped that she would someday forgive me.I hoped that someday,Ariana would und

    ~Amanda~I blinked countless times to get rid of the blurry vision.My headache terribly and a strong smell of chlorine hit my nostrils.When I my eyes fully opened,I was met with a pair of grey piercing eyes and I couldn't help it but frown, wondering what the hell was going on.Gabriel's lips curved into a smile and I could see relief in his eyes.”You're finally awake,Amanda.I was so worried about you.How are you feeling?Are you hungry or do you feel thirsty?”Gabriel asked politely and I could feel the concern in his voice.I snapped when I recalled my daughter's condition.“Ariana!I have to go and check on my daughter.”I was about to get off the bed but Gabriel held my hand. I turned to look at his hand on mine,then raised my face slowly and looked at him,our eyes locked.“You don't need to worry about anything because Ariana is doing perfectly fine.Our daughter is okay.Mom is watching over Ariana.

    ~Amanda~ It was quiet for a while inside the room.Gabriel’s questions made my heart ache.I know he has the right to ask questions because he is Ariana's Dad but…does he know how the fucking question caused so much pain to me?I heaved a deep sigh to calm down.“I found out a few days before graduation.I kept it to myself because I wanted it to be a surprise.I was planning to let you know that we were going to be parents on the last day of campus.”I paused to take a breath.“When I received the text message from you asking me to come at your apartment the same day,I was so excited to tell you the news and that's why I came immediately but…”I was silent for a while,the painful memories replayed in my head and my heart twisted inside my chest,as though someone was squeezing it into a tiny ball and it was becoming hard for me to breath.“I was heartbroken instead.I couldn't bring myself to tell you about the pre

    ~Amanda~Gabriel's question caught me off guard.I wasn't expecting him to ask me such a sensitive question.It was quiet for a while then I heaved a deep breath.“Can we talk from the balcony?”I asked and he nodded almost immediately.“Sure,”He said with a smile.I led the way and he followed behind me.“I will only allow you to be a father to Ariana under one condition.”I turned my head gently to look at Gabriel who was paying full attention.“And…what is the condition?”He asked hesitantly as though he wasn't sure if he wanted to hear my response.I heaved a deep sigh.“You are not allowed to tell Ariana that you're her father!You'll remain an uncle to her.I don't want Ariana to be affected by all this.That is why I didn't tell you that she's our daughter.It’s because I'm trying to protect her.”I paused to take a breath.“We will tell her the truth when she's mature enough

    AMANDA Oh heavens!It was finally happening!He finally popped the question!I nodded my head almost immediately,”Yes, Gabriel.I will marry you!”The tension on his face faded away and it was now replaced with a big smile.He heaved a deep sigh.I didn't know he was that nervous while asking the question.Gabriel picked the ring and grabbed my hand then slowly slid the engagement ring on the middle finger of my left hand.The ring felt cold against my finger and it fitted perfectly,as though it was made just for me.Gabriel stood up and wiped tears from my eyes, that's when I realised that I was shading tears of joy.“I can't wait to call you wifey…”He chuckled then leaned and kissed me.“Mine!”He said possessively in my head as he kissed me so deep,”I can't wait to be your wife.”I told him through the mind link and he groaned in response.We continued to kiss so passionately.Gabriel hoisted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist so tightly.He gave my arse a gentle squeeze and I let ou

    ~Amanda~THREE WEEKS LATER Gabriel recovered from the poison and now he is doing alright.He is back to training to get back his strength because the poison weakened his immune system.I have been training too so that in case the enemies attack the pack,I will be able to protect our daughter and future kids.I haven't gone to the company for the past three weeks.Andrew has been in charge of everything and he always informed me how was running in my absence.I have to say that I'm grateful for having Andrew as a working partner because he is amazing to work with.Andrew has closed a couple of deals in my absence and handled the company so well.I’m not that surprised because his parents were entrepreneurs too.Apart from having shares in our company,Andrew owns other businesses which were left under his name by his parents.I was surprised when Andrew visited Crescent Moon to check on Gabriel and wished him a quick recovery.As far as I could remember,the two didn't get along that well.I

    Chapter 103~Gabriel~”“For what?”She asked in confusion,”For everything.”The frown on her face only deepened when she heard my words.“I know I owe you an apology because Amanda went through alot in the past because of me.”I paused and took a deep breath.“I can't help it but feel guilty because you're treating me with love despite knowing the truth.''I bowed my head once again.I couldn't remember when was the last time I felt this way in my life.I felt as though I had committed an unforgiving crime.I wanted Amanda's mother,I mean our mother, to know that I was really sorry about what happened between Amanda and I in the past.“I swear I didn't have any idea that Amanda was pregnant when we parted ways in such a heartbreaking way back in campus.I tried looking for her so that I could explain everything to her but all my efforts to search for Amanda was in vain.I searched the whole of

    ~Amanda~Gabriel pulled back and pretended as though he didn't want to kiss me in the first place.I almost groaned but looking at our daughter's cute innocent face made my lips curve into a smile.“Mommy!”Our daughter screamed at the top of her voice and I could feel the longing in her voice.She ran to us and jumped on the bed, giggling.“Careful dear,”I whispered as we hugged so tightly.My mother stared at us with a smile, Gabriel as well.“Did you miss mommy?”I asked my daughter after pulling off from the tight embrace and she nodded with a pout.“Yes,you lied that you'll come back.”I swallowed when I heard my daughter's words,”Mommy is so sorry for lying to you, okay? It's just that,I got a little busy.”I brushed hair strands from her face and tucked it behind her ear.“Grandma told me that you're taking care of uncle Gabriel because he got hurt,”She turned to look at Gabriel and I could see worry

    ~Amanda~“Ga…Gabriel,”I stuttered, afraid that I might be dreaming.The corner of his lips curved into a smile.The smile that I have been craving to see on his face so bad.Gabriel wiped tears from my eyes and that is when I realised that I was crying.Damn it!Only the heavens knows how much I had missed his touches that sent a shiver down my spine.My eyes shuttered effortlessly and I leaned in to feel more of his touch.Just this once,I decided to let all my emotions get the better of me and more tears streamed down my cheeks.Gabriel growled and that made me open my eyes,”I don't like to see you crying,”He said and I could feel the annoyance in his voice.“But…I can't help it.”I said in almost a whisper but loud enough for him to hear what I had just said.“I was so scared, Gabriel.”I confessed how I was feeling deep inside me.“When you dropped on the ground in the study room.I was so scared that I was going t

Gabriel will kill me in case something happens to you.”I couldn't help but roll my eyes when I heard his words.“You're worrying too much,Leon.I think it will be good if you change,”I nodded to his blood stained clothes.“That's right,”He chuckled,”Call me in case of anything, okay?”He told me and I nodded.I could tell that Leon was really worried about Gabriel and I was glad to know that he had such a caring friend.The door clicked open and doctors walked out of the room,”How is he?”I asked one of them.“His body is responding r

    ~Amanda~Slowly,I turned around to find my mother standing at the door with a surprise look on her face.She looked at the sleeping Gabriel on the hospital bed then turned to look at me.“Is it true?”She asked and I could see so many unasked questions in her eyes.Taking a deep breath,I nodded hesitantly.“Ye…yes.”I said in almost a whisper but loud enough for my mother to hear what I had just said.“How?”She asked as confusion took over her features.”As far as I remember,you told us that you didn't know about Ariana's father because it was a one night stand and you never saw the man ever again since he was gone when you woke up.”I took a sharp breath when I heard my mother's words.I looked away, feeling guilty for lying to her all this time.“Can we talk about it somewhere else?I think this is not the right place.”My mother nodded to my words.I turned to look at Gabriel one last time t
