The hospital was stale and boring, with machines blipping in every room. Scarlett knew she probably shouldn't have come here, but she needed to see Jake, or she wouldn't believe he was actually here.

Lucy had said he was severely injured.

Was that true?

Well, she was about to find out.

Her eyes traveled through a window, and her breathing seized when she saw Jake unconscious in a hospital bed. Her ex-boyfriend was in terrible shape, yet her heart didn't hold any grief for him.

Was it terrible for her to think that?

Jake had sent her to the hospital himself, kicked her multiple times, and fractured her bones. The only reason he hadn't stopped hurting her was that Jake had deemed Scarlett dead.

He had left her to die on that hill. Scarlett was confident of this and swallowed thickly. There were a lot of reasons to hate Jake. He was the reason behind her heavy daily medications and why she no longer trusted strangers or any new person she met.

Her nightmares were sweaty, and the PTSD so

    When Scarlett drove up to the apartment, Sebastian was already waiting for her outside. His face was shrouded in shadows, and he was by Scarlett's side as soon as she parked the car. "Hello, Sebastian," Scarlett grabbed her purse, pausing when she saw her butler already grabbing the groceries from the passenger seat. He peered down at her while holding the bags. "Were you followed by anyone when you left the hospital?" "I think the men hired to watch me would have told you something if that was the case," she met his eyes, studying his face. "You know what happened today, don't you?" Guilt washed over Sebastian's features, and he sighed. "I was informed, yes. But let's talk about this inside, okay?" Scarlett nodded with an inhale. She finally experienced hope of being given the light of what was going on. "Okay, let's head inside. We can talk inside the kitchen." Sebastian briefly smiled before wordlessly turning on his heel, effortlessly carrying the bags. It hit Scarlett as she

    "I'm pregnant!" Scarlett exclaimed from inside the toilet. "I'm going to have a baby!"Lucy smiled from the other side of the door. Sebastian's eyes hadn't left her for the last twenty minutes. She was nervous, but this moment was about Scarlett.So she ignored the hunky bodyguard."Congratulation!" Lucy was jumping up and down and ran to hug Scarlett when she came out of the toilet. "I'm so happy for you! I can't believe you're going to become a mother!""Me neither!" Scarlett beamed at her. "I'm super happy, but also..."Her smile faltered, and her eyes turned sad.Lucy calmed down and hugged her friend tighter. "Everything is going to be alright, Scarlett...""You think so?""I know so."Scarlett still didn't look convinced.The hesitation on her face was understandable. Lucy had heard the news about Jake. Griffin was behind the murder, and Scarlett now carried his child—being pregnant meant Scarlett would always have Griffin in her life whether she liked it or not. "If it's any c

    Lucy couldn't sleep. Her throat felt dry, and she got out of bed in the dark, barefoot and dizzy. She headed for the door and wandered into the kitchen. A headache tormented her temples. It was probably because of the argument she had with Sebastian. She couldn't stop thinking about the handsome guy. Her heart fluttered whenever he was around, and it was such a pain in the ass to deal with. Sebastian was interested in her, but since he couldn't give her what she wanted, there was no reason to date him.She rubbed the sleep from her eyes, only to crash into something or someone blocking her path. Looking up, her tired eyes landed on a massive chest. Curious eyes peered down at her. Shit!Lucy quickly backed away from Sebastian when she noticed what her palm rested on: his pectoral muscle. Was she out of her goddamn mind?Sometimes Lucy swore her body had a mind of its own. She had practically groped the guy, and now he was smiling at her, probably thinking he had a chance with h

    Lucy was shaking in anticipation as she straddled Sebastian. She took his cock, inch by inch. He was large, but although it hurt, Lucy found pleasure in the pain. How could she not? She was beyond horny. Sebastian was lying on his back, on full display. His abs had a sheen of sweat over them, and his biceps looked swollen as he confidently rested his head in his arms. He didn't have a lot of hair, but his armpits did—Lucy preferred men who didn't shave there. It looked hot on Sebastian, and his round, muscular pecs turned into a place where she put down her palms. Fuck, there were so hard... Why had she never dated an athlete before? This was just... Hot. She felt him up, stroking his nipples with her thumbs as she arched her back and moaned as his dock filled her to the hilt. It felt terrific, and Sebastian smirked at her, satisfied by the show. "You're so sexy," he whispered huskily. "But I want you to go faster, babe. Don't hold back. Just ride me until you come." Lucy

    There was a pounding in Lucy's chest, so loud it was drowning out everything else. Her senses were overwhelmed. She had just called herself Sebastian's girlfriend. Why the heck had she done that?! Stupid, stupid, she was so stupid! Sebastian was smiling at her now with radiant eyes, waiting for an answer to his question. But Lucy didn't know what to say. She had dated guys and had sex with plenty, but this warmth was new. It struck her like a comet whenever she looked at Sebastian. It frightened her too. She had never been in love, but this was starting to feel like more than a crush or slight attraction. Lucy, however, wasn't ready to admit that to Sebastian. Scared he would break her heart. He couldn't possibly be serious about her. Sebastian should be dating some pretty, blonde little thing, not a goth who loved to draw cat-eyes whenever she could. They wouldn't last. "Ummm..." "Yes?" Sebastian asked. Lucy was so nervous she could barely produce the right words needed

    A Few Months LaterScarlett groaned after flushing the toilet. She had the worst pregnancy cramps ever. The entire morning had been spent puking, but the torture would be worth it. Something extraordinary was about to happen, and Scarlett placed her hand on her bump, caressing it while smiling. It brought her to tears, and her heart swelled inside her chest.After the doctors told her that she would have twins, her everyday life was no longer the same. She was stressed and anxious about the future, yet so very excited.From being the mother of no one, she would soon become the mother of two little angels. It filled her with warmth to think about her future children.The only thing which frightened her more than anything was having to raise her babies alone. Griffin's absence made her sad.Scarlett stroked her stomach again when she felt a kick. "Sch, daddy will meet us in Spain. He promised me... And hopefully, he will stay true to his words. I want you to meet him. He might seem sca

    Meeting Griffin again after so many months, the thought of that made Scarlett sit on pins and needles. The flight had gone well. Sebastian was sleeping inside the limousine, sitting up. Lucy rested her head in his lap with a content smile on her lips. She was all curled up to her boyfriend. Boyfriend. That word made Scarlett more nervous than she already was. The thought of meeting Griffin again sent spikes of heat through her. She was shaking, and the only way to get some peace was to ignore where the car was driving. It's not like Scarlett knew these roads anyway. They weren't back at the house Griffin had bought with her but at some secret location. Not even Sebastian knew where they were. It was somewhere in Spain. Probably a tropical tourist island and the weather was extreme. Scarlett hadn't stopped sweating since arriving and felt herself wishing Griffin had sent them to Antarctica. They passed more trees and rode the car up a gnarly road. Scarlett held on to her sea

    Someone had once said longing could drive a person mad, and Scarlett agreed with whoever said that. She was alone in a bed where Griffin lived, and she couldn't help wishing he would come to lay beside her. Holding her, caressing her skin, placing small kisses on her round stomach. Maybe the pregnancy hormones made her emotional, but she wanted to be with Griffin. More than anything. It was hard to get any sleep when all she could think of was the father of her children. She kept staring into the wall, half-asleep until the door opened and someone walked into her room. The lock clicked, and Scarlett lifted her chin to see Griffin peering down at her. "I only came to check on you, make sure you're resting," Griffin said and held up a book. "And since I can't stop worrying something happens to you while you're sleeping, I was going to read in the same room. I hope you don't mind." A smile spread over Scarlett's lips. "Do you want to touch my belly? Listen to when our little twin

    Jacob groaned and flipped her over. Scarlette's back hit the mattress, and she looked up to stare at him. For a moment, she stopped breathing because his eyes told her how enamored he was with her. It was incredible. Did Griffin look at her this way? She couldn't remember anymore. Scarlette's legs crossed over his hips as Jacob settled himself firmly between her thighs. He firmly pushed his palms against the mattress, his eyes bored into her soul. "Tell me again." Scarlett gulped. She knew what he meant, but she decided to play dumb. "Tell you what?" "You know what I'm asking. You are a smart woman, Scarlett. Much smarter than Griffin gives you credit for. So tell me." Charlotte was a little scared. Her hips trembled underneath him as he brushed his cock over her wet entrance. "Stop playing games with me. I want you inside me now. Isn't that enough for you?" The tip of his cock pushed inside her a bit and a small smile teased his lips. She had felt his length filling her merely

    Scarlett's plan had been to fool Jacob into thinking she was interested in him and stab him with something sharp. Her mind and body belonged to Griffin, but her resolve weakened when Jacob eyed her with lust.While the mafia boss of the brothers resembled his twin, there was a gleam of arrogance in Jacob's eyes that Scarlett couldn't resist. And his cock? It was stiff and ready for her, throbbing and angry. It would be so easy to just let it slip inside...Scarlett's pussy was clenching already, wanting Jacob to fill it. It would be so easy to use him to reach an orgasm. She bet it wouldn't take much riding to achieve that great peak of pleasure.No!What was she even thinking?!She wouldn't fall for the temptation!Bad, Scarlett!Even if she was in pure physical pain from resisting Jacob. The evil genius didn't even make an effort to cover himself. He seemed to love the attention he was getting and smirked. "Are you offering to suck my cock, Scarlett?" Jacob asked with a glimmer i

    It was odd lying curled up next to Jacob. Scarlett had spent a good hour cleaning him in the shower, and now she was surrounded by his heat. Jacob's arms were tightly wrapped around her petite body— Well... Scarlett wasn't small. Her stomach was a large bump, and she wasn't precisely skinny since she was close to giving birth, but she was a dwarf compared to Jacob. He was as tall as Griffin, and his take-what-he-wanted personality made him seem larger-than-life. He was cocky and arrogant but also had a more playful side. He was... Weird. "Lying like this and smelling your hair makes me wish I was the good brother... I really, really love holding you like this, love..." Jacob grunted and nuzzled closer to Scarlett. "Griffin is a lucky man to have stolen your heart. You're so beautiful." For some reason, her cheeks burned. "I'm not beautiful." "Yes, you are, love..." Jacob mumbled into Scarlett's hair. One of his giant paws was resting on her baby bump, and his cock presse

    To claim tonight was weird was the biggest understatement of the entire freaking year. This whole situation was surreal. Scarlett was sitting on a king-sized bed inside a locked master bedroom. The furniture was expensive, and the room was fancy. She was alone with Jacob, who was taking off his clothes."Since you possess no actual harm to me, I don't even think I need to be equipped with a gun. You won't hurt me, Scarlett. But if you were stupid enough to try something in your sleep, I have men outside that door to finish you off. So be smart."Jacob threw his t-shirt on the floor, and Scarlett averted her eyes hastily to not stare at his ripped physique. She eyed the door with a racing heart. Getting out of here was the main priority, but she knew her chances of escaping were slim to none. It would be better to play house for now. Her eyes flitted back to Jacob, and she gulped. Holy shit.Okay, regardless of what she thought of the man's personality, Jacob was ridiculously attr

    This had to be the sickest dinner Scarlett had ever been invited to.Jacob sat at the other long end of the table, fixing his tie and putting on an apron to not spill food over his clothes. He looked like a kid getting ready for Christmas dinner, smiling radiantly at her. Yet Scarlett knew better than to translate his expression into anything remotely friendly. Jacob was a psychopath. The proof would be that Griffin sat at the table, too, a gun to his head and a sullen expression on his bruised face. He didn't look happy, and if looks could kill, Jacob would be dead.And Scarlett herself?A guard stood behind her, ready to shoot her if she even attempted to leave the goddamn dinner table. Not that Scarlett thought Jacob would kill her, not when the freak wanted one of her children.He was indeed a sick man. Devastatingly handsome with a face identical to the man she loved, but totally whack-a-mole crazy."Are you ready for the appetizers?" Jacob asked, leaning his chin against the

    Scarlett narrowed her eyes and roared. "That is not even blood on your face! It tastes and smells like ketchup. Who the hell are you?!" The answer was obvious and burned in her mind. Yet Scarlett didn't want to believe it. Couldn't accept that she had let another man who wasn't Griffin go down at her. The guy smirking at her now had looked and acted the same way—how was she supposed to know he was Griffin's twin brother in disguise. What was his name again? Jacob! "You've finally figured it out, huh?" His eyes glowed in the faint streetlight coming in through the window. "Yes, I'm not Griffin, and this is indeed ketchup. I thought it would be fun to play games with you and see if you would fall for them. And the price?" Jacob licked his lips in the dark, savoring her taste on his lips. He looked like a predator, and Scarlett was the meat. It made anger rise in her chest, disgust too. How could she have let this happen?! She was so mad at herself! "You're a sick man! A fucking

    Later that same day, Dmitri pushed Scarlett into a prison cell. "You will stay here until the boss wishes to see you. He is busy with your boyfriend at the moment."Scarlett looked around after the door locked behind her. She was in a basement that smelled like mold. Moss grew on the walls, and water was dripping from the ceiling.But there was a bunk bed. Although it looked worn down and rotten, it was better than the alternative: sleeping on the floor. Grumbling to herself, Scarlett laid down on the mattress and grimaced at how wet it was. It stank like pee too. "Whatever... It must be better than the floor."Scarlett miraculously fell asleep but woke up in the middle of the night when she heard footsteps. "Just kick him into the same cell as the woman.""Is that really such a wise idea?""It's not like it heightens his chances of escaping just because he is together with the woman. Besides, look at the bastard—he is all bruised up and bleeding. This fucker ain't going nowhere w

    The dock wasn't far away, yet Scarlett never made it there before a man dressed in black grabbed her. Her arms were twisted behind her back, and she screamed at the top of her lungs."No, release me! Let me go!" Her screaming was ignored.No matter her struggles, the man didn't let her go. He clamped his muscular arms around her and held her still. Scarlett tried to fight and wriggle herself free. She was pregnant but not handicapped!"Release me, you fucking swine!" Scarlett growled. "Let me go! Get your filthy fingers off me!"The man didn't answer her and calmly put handcuffs around her arms. He wasn't gentle in the slightest.It hurt. Scarlett screamed, but once again, her efforts were ignored. The man didn't feel sorry for her, nor did he seem phased by her attempts to escape him.Her captor was more extensive and robust, and there was no escape. She had failed to get to the boat and was paying for it. She was officially a captive, soon to be kidnapped. The handcuffs dug into

    Scarlett's heart was pounding. Griffin was so close, about to take what he had been missing for almost a year.His lips were inches from hers, breathing warm air into her face. Scarlett was seconds away from being taken against the wall, fucked harder than ever. But suddenly, there were the sounds of guns firing off in the garden. Griffin had bodyguards set outside, but they were fighting someone, and Scarlett heard tires screech against the asphalt. It made Griffin lean back with a calculating expression. He listened and then stared into Scarlett's eyes. "We are under attack."Her heartbeat raced against her ribcage. "U-under attack?""Yes," Griffin sighed. "Fuck, just when things were turning good..."Scarlett blinked at him. "I'm not sure if I'm following...""There is a massive prize on my head, and there is probably one on yours too since you're my lover," Griffin flared his nostrils and walked over to the cupboard. "We must make it into the dock at the back of the garden, jum
