2022-01-23 19:43:20When she opened her eyes again she was in an unfamiliar room, she looked around and noticed she was in a hospital bed, she tried to get up but she was too dizzy to, she wondered what happened and how long she has been passed out, she closed her eyes and tried to remember what happened and all she could come up with was her talking to Jordan when she found out she was pregnant, her eyes opened in bewilderment when she recurs that she was indeed pregnant, she thought it was just a dream, she gradually opened her eyes again just as Jordan walked in.
"Hi baby girl, you are finally awake,"He said sitting on the chair close to her bed."Yes, but my head hurts so bad, what happened?""Your body was too stressed, according to the doctor which is what lead to you collapsing,""How long have I been out Jordan?""Hmm, about two days,""What? That's a lie right?""No, it's not, your body was so stressed that you have slept for almost forty-eight hours, wRelated chapters

" Lucas, you really made the mistake of letting her go, why are you so stubborn?"Leah, asked."Can we not talk about this again please, I don't want to talk about this alright,""You are not going to hear the end of it brother, not when you stupidly let a woman that was meant for you go,"Lilac chipped in, Lucas could only roll his eyes in disapprove, these ladies were out to get him and he wasn't going to give them the chance to, it's been over three months since Katrina left, and so far he has been doing well, well not totally true, he had been a mess the first month she had left, it felt like huge chunk of him had been pulled off and it had taken over a month to find the balance again and now he was okay, two months three weeks, five days and twelve hours since she left him, he didn't know why he was counting the days and hours but he found himself knowing despite how busy he was, there was always something to remind him of her whether it's when he forg

"Katrina?"Katrina heard Jordan call as she got off the phone with her mom."Yes, Jordan? I didn't hear you come in,"She said, she had been too immersed with the talk with her mom who still wanted to know who the father of her kid was, but she wasn't ready to tell her parents just yet, she hasn't even had the mind to go tell Lucas still even after promising to do it last week, and she saw on TV recently that Lucas was opening the hotels, earlier than she had thought but she wasn't surprised, the dude had the money, she had made sure not to keep up on him and also told Jordan not to keep her updated in what's going on at the office, after she found out she was pregnant she had made the decision not to leave New York at least not yet."Don't kill me, okay but you have some visitors, I couldn't say no to them,"He said with his hands folded down as if he did something bad."Who?""Lucas's older sisters,"He revealed and Katrina got up from the b

"Are you sure about this Jord? I know I promised Leah and Lilac that I will attend but I don't think I should,"Katrina said to Jordan while she got dressed for the party, she could imagine Jordan rolling his eyes at her over the phone but she was scared and nervous enough not to care."We talked about this girl, you have to,"He replied, he was already at the venue as his boss had called him last minute and he had left, he called just to tell her he went ahead to the venue after he was done at the office, she was already dressed, she just didn't feel like leaving the house, she stood up and checked her reflection in the mirror, the dress the ladies had helped her pick was a beautiful blue evening gown, it was simple yet it fitted her so well but she was scared everyone is gonna take one look at her and know she was pregnant."I should just call him and tell him over the phone,"She said sitting back down in resignation."No way lady, you come to the pa

Katrina was too shocked to say a word or even clap, everyone was clapping, but her mind seemed to be locked in the past, few minutes ago, Lucas, he said, could it be? Or was she overthinking it, but his words, the way he looked at her while he said them, she replayed it over and over again,"Kat? Can we talk?"She looked up in shock as he stood in front of her, she hadn't known when he left the podium but he was standing in front of her, he looked fresh and handsome as always, his familiar swell hit her nostrils, oh how much she missed that swell, how much she missed him."Kat?""Right now, the ceremony is just starting,""Go with him Katrina, my dad is giving a speech so, it's nothing much,"Leah said patting her, she looked at the podium and Lucas's parents were there, she didn't even know."Shall we?"He asked stretching his hand, she took it and they both walked out of the auditorium, her heart was beating so fast, what did he want to ta

Lucas stayed out until the last rounds of guests that were going back to their respective homes left, the ones that were spending the night at the hotel were still around and some were already in their rooms, the whole event had been smooth and it ended about an hour ago, Lucas turned to the staff nearest to him and gave him instructions before heading towards the room he had chosen for him and Katrina, he saw her going that way earlier and it had made him glad, at least she still wanted them to talk, she hadn't believed his declaration of love which had hurt but he couldn't blame her, he did worst to her, he just hoped she would forgive him and give him another chance.His parents and siblings already turned in for the night, they hadn't asked him any questions, but he knew they were curious, he hoped he will have good news to share with them by morning.When he entered the room, he found her sleeping, she still had her clothes and makeup on so he assumed she fell asleep

Katrina waited for his words, would he blame her and rebuke her for not telling him earlier? She hadn't meant to just blurt it out but it came out, and she couldn't take it back now, he didn't react the way she expected, she looked at him and he wasn't even shocked, he was smiling, he knew, since when did he know?"You are not shocked? You are not angry?""No, I already figured it out, I mean we slept on the same bed it would be hard not to notice."He replied smiling, this wasn't the reaction she had been expecting."When did you figure it out?""Last night, I was watching you sleep and we'll I noticed a lot of change, then you turned and it all made sense, I did place my hand on it to be sure and that moment finding out that you are carrying my baby was the best moment of my life, it feels good to finally have confirmation,""How are you so sure that the baby is yours?

The next couple of days and week was pretty much amusing for Katrina, and it was all because of Lucas, the dude turned to someone she has never seen before, he practically lived with her now as he was there every morning afternoon, and evening, he only leaves to sleep and before she wakes up he is at her house again, right now he was here and chatting with Jordan who took a sick leave to tend to his after surgery, it wasn't really much of surgery though, he had his wisdom tooth pulled out, he can talk fine now but he took two weeks off and the fact that the owner of the company is here and not saying anything."Are you both not going home? When did you two become besties and why do you choose to meet at my house?"Katrina asked standing with her hands on her waist, her baby bump which has become more obvious as the days passes shut up."You should be happy we are here to keep you company,"Jordan said"I don't need company, Lucas? Don't you have a company to

Katrina was woken up by the sound of someone banging on her door, she wondered why whoever was there was banging so hard on her door when the person can just ring the doorbell, she sluggishly got up from her bed, being five months pregnant made her extra tired all the time, if only Lucas was here but he had to travel for a business trip which is why she was alone, Jordan already left for work, he had passed the night at her place but left early for work, Lucas had wanted her to go to his house while he was away but she had insisted on staying here because his house was too big for her to be alone, he had reluctantly agreed.Over the last two months they have gotten even closer and everyday Katrina fell more in love with him, he was everything, he was kind and considerate and didn't rush her when she had told him she didn't want to be married yet, he had understood and told her he will wait till she was ready.She went to her door wondering who it was, she wasn't expecting

"Your wife is on her way to the chapel son,"Lucas heard his mom say and his heart skipped a beat, this was really happening, he was getting married today to the love of his life, it still felt surreal even though it was happening, during the preparations for the big day, each morning he wakes up and doubts for a moment if it was really happening and she reminds him each time that it was, he still didn't know if he deserves all the love and attention she gives him, if it was okay for him to feel this much happiness and love, a little over a ten months, ago, he had thought himself incapable of love and being loved but now, getting ready for his big day, the day he thought he was never going to witness, was like a dream, a dream he didn't want to ever wake up from."Mom, this is really happening? I am getting married? Kat really loves me?""Of course son, all are happening and Katrina loves you, you deserve to be loved my dear and you got the best, I just know your life

"Are you ever going to give me an answer?"Lucas asked as they sat together in Lucas's room in Arizona, it's been a month since the incident with Nas and a lot of things have happened since that time, first, she had to spend the whole of her first week back at the hospital, her family pestering her with their love and attention, then Lucas's mom made it clear she wanted them back home in Arizona for the time being, Nas was arrested at first but then his medical records proved that he is infact not mentally okay, he was sent to the mental health care center, of course, he didn't want that but that's what the Court ruled, Katrina didn't want to be roped into many legal dealings as she didn't want to keep having to recount every of her experience so she had told Lucas that she didn't want to be a part of whatever legal actions that were going to be taken against him, so far all she knew was that he was sent to the mental health care center, she didn't know the rest of it even thou

She ran as much as her big tummy could let her, he was chasing her and threatening to shoot, she was betting on the fact that he couldn't kill her and hoped he won't, she passed the house, running towards the palm groves, hoping to get a good hiding spot, she looked back, he was coming, she dashed into the palm groves and hid, hoping and praying that he won't find her, she wasn't sure anymore if she had heard correctly or if she has imagined the sound of the plane earlier, it was already dark, so she hopped the night could serve as hiding for her, she didn't mind swimming out of here but there was no way she was going with Nas."Come out, come out, where ever you are,"Nas voiced, he was close, she heard her breath praying for him not to find her."Please,"She pleaded silently. "Found you,"He said with an evil laugh that brought tears to her eyes, he pulled her out of her hiding place and slapped her hard, not just once but twice, she had bad luck wh

Katrina got off the bed and looked through the window, she could only see water, in her prison-like room, she has been able to convince Nas that the seal on the window doesn't need to be there since she can't leave through there and he had finally removed it, it's been almost a week since she got here, precisely six days, by this night it would be seven days and still no hope of her getting rescued, she had tried to find a way, trying to run away every day but as the days came and went, she saw how hopeless her case was, she didn't know where she never knew a place like this existed in New York, so she decided to give up on trying to escape and plan another way of getting out of here which was to makeNas think she was finally coming back to her senses and falling in love with him, she didn't know how long it will take to build that trust, maybe weeks or months? Would she give birth to her baby here without any help? But so far, he has given her some breathing space, not

Lucas got to Katrina's house as fast as he could after Jordan called him but it had taken longer than he had wanted because he had been in Florida when Jordan had called, he had been trying to reach Katrina since he woke up but she wasn't taking her calls so he had called Jordan to go check on her but then Jordan had called sounding worried, he found Katrina's door open but she wasn't there."Jordan, hey, any news?"He asked as he got in, Jordan was talking on the phone."Welcome Lucas, nothing yet, I just spoke with the estate security,"He replied, which made Lucas even more scared, what could have happened and why did she leave her door open? It's being over eight hours and she wasn't back yet, he went into her bedroom and found her phone there,""Oh God,"He voiced as he came back to the living room."I found her phone, where could she have gone to without a car or her phone?""I have a bad feeling about this Lucas, Katrina is not the type
