My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 18
Current Location: Crossing paths mallIt was currently Monday, and I was at the food court with Natasha. I agonized over whether I was going to tell her about what I did to Derek. In the end I decided I would. I needed to talk to someone about it before it swallowed me whole. Though Kyle knew and he saw what happened with his own two eyes, I really wanted to talk to Natasha about it."Natasha I have to tell you something horrific that I did. I am not sure how you are going to react or if you are going to even want to be part of my life after this. I trust you more than anyone, and if I do not talk to someone about it, it may very well drive me insane." With deep concern on her face Natasha responded with" Come now Emma. How long have we known each other? There is nothing you can do or say that will break our bond! Our friendship, or rather sisterhood, means more than anything in the world to me."I looked at Natasha with tears in my eyes. "You mean the world to me as well. That is why

Current Location: The back seat of Kyles car"Shane? What are you doing here?" I asked with an edge to my voice. "Wondering what the hell you are doing out here. I saw you leave the house, and I came over to talk to you. I expected you to be alone not with other people." Lucas looked at me "Ma'am ask him to show you his left forearm." I complied and Shane rolled his eyes and pulled up his sleeve. "That is your arm show me your left." Without thinking he pulled up his left sleeve. In that moment I knew I was not talking to Shane, but Spencer instead!Shane has a tattoo on his left forearm of a black cat in remembrance to his friend Catalina who tragically died in a hit and run accident. "You are not Shane!" I said in a shaky voice. Kyle pulled out his 9.mm and pointed it at Spencer’s head.Spencer ignored Kyle and said to me urgently " No I am not, I never said I was. My name is Spencer Delrose. A few months ago, I moved in with my sister Sandie only to find out shortly after she change

Current Location: My basement Shane, Spencer, and I had been talking for the last two hours. It was a little after one a.m. I sent Kyle and Lucas away a while ago, though I was sure one of them was outside watching the house at that moment. The three of us talked everything out, and Shane now knew everything he needed to. Shane and Spencer wanted to know more than anything about where they came from and how they got separated. They wanted to understand why they were giving away. Except we were not sure if Shane actually was. Shane planned to call out of work in the morning than he was going to go confront Pearl."Emma, I would appreciate it if you came with me. I would let you tag along to Spencer, but if my mother is not our biological Mother, I do not want to freak her out. Whether I am blood related to her or not she has been good to me over all these years, and I truly love her. But Spencer if you could arrange for us to get a DNA test that would be swell. And I am not going to te

Current Location: Pearls house on her backyard patioWhen we arrived at Pearl’s house Shane’s children were already off to school. I guess that was a good thing since this was going to be hard enough talking to Pearl about without the children over hearing and having questions of their own."I am so happy my Shane is done with that horrible wench and is finally with the woman he deserves!" Pearl beamed at me. Shane chuckled "Okay mother we know how you feel, but Emma and I did not come here just for a normal social visit. We need to talk to you about something extremely important."Pearl immediately got an ecstatic look on her face. "Yes. Yes. Yes. Emma you are pregnant! Or wait you two are getting married or hopefully both?" Shane grabbed pearl by the shoulders to stop her from bouncing up and down. "Mother! It really has nothing to do with Emma. Rather it has to do with You, me, and Spencer." Shane and I watched for Pearls reaction. She obviously had no idea who Shane was talking abo

Current Location: Ruby’s office "chill out Ruby! I can explain it all. Why not have Tim go and grab us some lunch. Once he is back, we will sit, eat, and I will catch you up on everything you have missed since Shane received those photos." I asked Ruby. She agreed and went to send Tim to grab some lunch from the nearby deli.About fifteen minutes later Tim came back with two hoagies, two bags of chips, and two sodas. It has been a long time since I had this type of food, and I was actually looking forward to it. "Okay Emma tell me how you came to know Spencer, and definitely how the hell he met Shane." Ruby said irritated. I took a deep breath before diving into it. Of course, I left a bunch out, but I gave her the basic run down of the order of events. I told Ruby about how it was actually because of her that Shane met Spencer. If she would have canceled their meet up, they would not have met. I told her all about how obsessed Derek was with me and how he enlisted Spencer’s help wit

Current Location: In Kyles car on route to my houseI was currently on the phone with Natasha letting her know it was time to set Ruby up. " Finally, I get to have some real fun. I have been so absolutely bored out of my mind lately this will spice things up. I will contact you when I get outside of Rubys office building. Talk to you soon girl." Natasha proceeded to hang up. I spoke matter of factly to Kyle. "I think when we get back to my place you should stick around. I think it will be more convenient and much easier f9r all of us involved to relay what is going on to one another. " Kyle agreed completely. I texted Shane to make sure he was not there or coming back anytime soon. He said he was about to pick the kids up from school and the four of them were going to stay with Pearl tonight. We agreed to meet for lunch tomorrow at Big Henry's Steak and Fries. I was relieved one less thing to worry about. If Shane found out what we were doing, he will flip his lid.Kyle and I arrived

Current Location: About twenty miles out of the city limits "Miss Emma this shit we found out about Spencer is completely fucked up. I do not know what his intentions are with you, Shane, or even Shane’s mother Pearl. You said you plan to take him to Pearls house for dinner. Please do not do it. Go ahead and have the dinner but do it at your house so we can be here outside to make sure you all are safe. What I am about to tell you is going to blow your mind." Kyle said enthusiastically. I was so curious to find out what Kyle uncovered, but at the same time I was really weary about it. I knew it had to be something extremely bad, otherwise they would not want me to stay here so they could watch over and protect me. 'Kyle you are scaring me here. Just spill it and we can work our way from there." Kyle took a long-exaggerated breath before he dove into it."Okay well you already know Pearl is Spencer and Shane’s biological mother, what you might not know is their father is a big-time ga

Current Location: At an undisclosed location to prevent Ruby from possibly finding this book than finding meIt was three hours after my phone call with Ruby and I chose to leave the comfort and safety of Kyles home and rent a place out in the numerous wooded areas around us. Ruby begged and pleaded on the phone with me that she was innocent, and she was going to find the culprit who did this to her one way or another. As a precaution I rented this place and did not tell a single soul of where I was going. Not Kyle, or Lucas, and especially not Shane. If Ruby is anything like me, she will eventually fit the pieces together, and as you already know she does figure it out. But before she does there is much more to tell you dear reader. I assured Ruby, I believed her, and she begged me not to tell Shane. The problem with that idea was before we even got off the phone with one another Rubys arrest at her company was all over the local news channels. Ruby knew she was in deep shit, and she

My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 139
Three months later“Mother can you stop trying to make today all about you for god sakes it is my wedding day not yours.” I said to my mother for about the fifteenth time in the last five minutes. I was already nervous as all hell about doing this in the first place and as usual my mother was making everything worse. “Emma, I am not trying to make this about me. I was just saying how ignorant it is for my date to cancel last minute. It is just so messed up I deserve better than this.” My mother said with a scornful tone. I just sighed shaking my head knowing I couldn’t stop her from being the selfish creature she is.“Come on Miss White they are ready for you outside.” Natasha said scooting my mother out the door. I gave her a thankful look and went back to trying to calm myself down. Natasha walked over to me and put her hand on the small of my back. “It is going to be okay Emma. I know marriage makes your skin crawl, but you love Shane, and he really loves you. I don’t think I have
My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 138
After I jumped on Ruby’s back everything seemed to be moving in slow motion but at the same time it felt like everything was sped up. I know, I know that seems really confusing, but it was like the world around me was one big blur of movement while it seemed to take me a lifetime to knock her to the ground though my guess is it took mere seconds.Three things happened simultaneously. Ruby fell, her gun went off, and I knew someone had been shot because I was now covered in red specks of blood all over my arms and I could feel them on my face as well. The smell of rust and salt invaded my nostril and made me feel queasy. I couldn’t let it get to me however or Ruby might wind up with the upper hand.I struggled to grab her arms and pull them behind her back. For a small chick she was stronger than she looked, not to mention I just had surgery and my incision from the c-section hurt immensely. Finally, someone noticed how much trouble I was having and came over and kicked Ruby square in
My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 137
I knew I had to start talking to Ruby to try and distract her so Kyle could sneak up on her and take her out. “I am really glad you find your psychotic ways so amusing. I mean someone has to think you will get out of this unscathed and why not let it be yourself. After all you have been through so much in these past few months. You lost Shane to a better woman, you murdered your own child, lost your second family, destroyed your career, and so much more but hey at least you can stand there with a grin on your face and be completely content!”Ruby’s face turned into a scowl I guess she didn’t like her short comings being thrown in her face. That was good I wanted to piss her off, so all her focus was on me. She didn’t even seem to realize as I was talking that Shane, Tony, and Natasha started slowly moving away from each other and their current position to situate themselves around her so we could cover her in a five point angle. Ruby stood there momentarily at a loss of what to say to

Emma:“I know what you are going to say Kyle, but we have to go out there. After all we both know she is here for me, and I am afraid of what she will do if I don’t show up.” I said to Kyle trying to convince him how important this decision was. Kyle sighed and turned his head towards me. “I know you are right but that does not mean I have to like it. The only way I will be comfortable with allowing you to go out there is if you stay behind me understood?”I shook my head at Kyle in disbelief. “You know as well as I do that will not work. She will kill you without a second thought to get to me. Look I have a better idea. I know she is going to talk my ear off before she does anything at all. I want you to go back up these stairs to the second floor and make your way to the other staircase. Once there come back down to this level and come in through the other entrance. My cousin’s eyes will be on me, and she will not see you sneaking up on her. What do you think?”Kyle told me that was

We all began yelling at detective Morris that he just shot Detective Wilcox. “No, no, no! I did not mean it. Jennifer, please tell me you are ok. Jennifer, please answer me!” Detective Morris screamed out in desperation. I called out and said I was going to crawl over and check on her. He gave me the go ahead and I slowly began crawling over to Jennifer being cautious as to not make the detective trigger happy again.When I made my way over to her I first checked her pulse and looked for where she had been hit. “She is unconscious and has a very thready pulse. You struck her once in the chest and once in the torso. You need to get someone in here now to get her and Emma to the hospital. We also have a third person who is injured. He got struck with shrapnel when the explosion happened out the back door.” I said hoping he would understand how urgent this matter was.“Officer down, I repeat officer down. We need two more ambulances aside for the one for Detective Wilcox we have two civi

Of course, it would be her. Who else is psychotic enough to start a shooting rampage through a fucking hospital. I was positive she knew I was here, and she was looking for me. “Kyle, can you see anyone else out there?” I asked not really wanting to know the answer but knowing I had to. Kyle moved his head as far left as he could while still being able to see out of the small rectangular window. “There are a few people lying on the floor. It does not appear that anyone is hurt. Ruby is out there pointing the gun at people and yelling but I can not hear her through the door. Holy shit! This is so fucked. Miss Emma, I do not want to alarm you, but Shane Tony and Natasha are out there!Natasha:Hello again dear reader. I know I said you would not be hearing from me again, however when I wrote that we thought everything was coming to an end and that I would not have anything to tell you that Emma could not. We were very wrong on that front seeing as while Ruby came into the hospital firin
My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 133
Kyle and I took an immediate left and half walked have sprinted down to the elevators. Not surprising they were turned off. It makes sense that they would deactivate them with an active shooter on the premises. It Would be harder for them to get to a different floor. We headed over to the door for the stairs and headed through. Neither of us knew exactually which floor the NICU was on, so we decided to go to the highest level and work our way down. Along the way we stopped so Kyle could smash the glass on the fire ax box that was in each stairwell. He took the ax and led us the rest of the way up the steps. We went through the access door once we reach the top and walked through. We found ourselves in a hallway with doors every six feet or so on each side. I walked up to one of them an read the plaque on the wall. “LAB NUMBER THREE: REASEARCH AND DEVELEPOMENT”. Since the entire hall had these same type of rooms, we decided this was the wrong floor and there were no patients up here, s
My Own Worst Enemy chapter 132
Dr. Marsh and i exchanged looks before he told me to go lock myself in the bathroom. like that was going to fucking happen! There was currently someone inside the hospital shooting at people or something of that nature. There was no way i was going to stay here like a sitting duck. I sat up and slid off the bed. I located a bag in one of the chairs with my cell phone, socks, and shoes. I pulled out and put on the socks and shoes than I tried calling Shane. The phone just went to voicemail. The same thing when I called Natasha than Tony. I figured I would try calling Kyle even though I knew it was a long shot since he just had surgery. I was very surprised when he answered on the second ring in a very hushed voice. “Miss Emma! You are okay! Thank the Gods. I would ask about the babies and your health but right now we got a problem. Did you hear those gun shots and those people yelling?” Kyle asked me in one breath. I rolled my eyes and said, “Of course I heard it. I’m in the surgery w
My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 131
My eyes grew wide as the realization of what Dr. Marsh just said to me sunk in. two friends went into surgery and only one made it out alive! I knew one of them had to be Kyle. We did our best to make sure his wound was closed but as far as I knew he was the only one hurt. Who the fuck died! “Dr. Marsh. I only knew of one of my friends who was hurt so let us start with the good news first. Who made it out of surgery?”Dr. Marsh looked at me with pity in his eyes. I did not like the way he was looking at me it made feel uneasy like he was about to tell me my word was over. Which I guess could be possible if the person he told me died was Shane. It could not be him! I hated not knowing what happened and I could not take much more of this. If it was the love of my life, I do not think I would ever be able to bring myself to get out of the hospital bed.“Miss White, I apologize I thought you knew about both your friends. Who would you like to hear about first?” Dr. Marsch asked me sadly.
