Pregnant with the Billionaire Enemy's Child 14
RAFAEL“Go after her and do not let her out of your sight. If she attempts to escape or do anything to stupid then you inform me and make sure it doesn’t happen. Do you understand me?” I asked Ellen,She simply nodded in affirmation and left the study after Athena. She had shown that she couldn’t handle the freedom which I had let her enjoy so I was going to reverse everything and return it back to how it was before. Lock her up and make sure she doesn’t leave anywhere. If this was how she wanted it then I would happily let it be like this.I couldn’t believe that I had been stupid enough to leave my door open for her to be able to come in and snoop around. It was a rookie mistake, one that I never made. It was very obvious at this point that I was off, something was messing with my normal rhythm and I had no idea what it was. This business with Hermes was definitely getting into my head and that was why I was this determined to end everything.“I just saw the girl.” Hernandez said, a

ATHENAThe room felt very clustered and choking to me as I continued pacing around trying to figure out what to do. At this point it was very obvious that Rafael was hiding something from me and I couldn’t shake that feeling it was something very serious. A lot of scenarios were running through my mind but apart from the picture of me that he had which he had refused to talk about, there was nothing really concrete that I had found out.My head was spinning because of all the thoughts that were playing out in my head and I was finding it really hard to breathe at all. I needed to take a walk at least to clear my head or something. I couldn’t afford to stay cooked up in this room forever.Ella was standing in the hallway right in front of the door as soon as I opened it and she greeted me with a smile. I smiled back and brushed past her. It wasn’t until I did this that I noticed she was following right behind me.“Do you have something for me?” I asked, turning to face her.“No ma’am.”

“So that’s his plan, after all. I always knew he was smart but I didn’t expect him to take things this far in his pursuit of revenge.”Hermes king’s voice came through the phone clear as day. Hernandez had explained everything there was to him and he had been very impressed with Rafael’s plan. Over the past few months he had watched Rafael and admired his dedication towards taking him down.In his line of work he had expected that people would not quite be happy about how he did business and all but he had never once expected someone to pull off a direct assault such as this. When he had heard his daughter was missing, he had completely freaked out.Who would do such a thing? He had thought. Panic had filled his entire mind because the only reason he had left in the first place was to try and keep her safe but apparently that had in no way worked. When he had heard that the man who was hunting him was Rafael, one of his most promising experiments back then, he had immediately understo

ATHENA“That is not possible.” My father said, as his eyes widened in horror as he stared at the gradually growing baby bump.This was the very first time I was conscious about how I looked and I noticed that the bump on my stomach was actually getting visible. I thought it would wait for some extra months before it made itself known but apparently, I was wrong.“Yes, it is.” Rafael replied, he had this sick smile on his face as he looked into my dad’s eyes who was clearly glaring at him like he wanted to rip his head off.“You know that is not possible, especially not after everything that happened. She can’t be carrying your child and the both of us know this for a fact.”Things were getting even more heated as we were on the stage and I saw the auctioneer signal to Rafael, whispering something in his ear as he slowly gestured towards the crowd of people. Even though they were trying their best to talk in hushed voices while on stage, it had become quite obvious to members of the au

RAFAELIt was already really late when I got back to the house and the house was really quiet. Only the guard who had opened the gate for me was up and this was exactly why I had decided to come back really late. I didn’t have the strength to go through a back and forth with Athena. A part of me knew she definitely would want to ask me questions, questions that I was not sure if I wanted to answer or not.Seeing her standing there with her father had triggered something inside me that I thought I had under control. It reminded me that she was actually his daughter and that was something that I had to remember no matter what, it was important especially in the grand scheme of things.I twisted the door knob of the house and walked into the living room, trying my best to make as little noise as possible when I did this. The room was dark when I entered so it took a bit of time for my eyes to get accustomed to everything. By the time it did, the first thing I saw was a figure seated on a

Ella knocked on the door to the room the next day, waking Athena up. It wasn’t like she had slept a lot all through the night so it was very easy for her to get up. The previous night had been a lot for her as she continued to run through things in her mind while she lay in bed. She tried her best not to think about it but obviously that was not possible in any way. The more she tried not to, the more the thoughts kept flooding into her head.From her father’s face to his words and everything, it had been too much for her to bear. The conversation with Rafael was not any better, she had hoped that it would provide a level of clarity for her about what was going on but it seemed to just make things worse.She took a deep breath as she walked towards the door to check who it was. Ella was staring at her as she opened up the door and she had a smile on her face. It was obvious she was completely oblivious about everything that had happened last night which was why she was in such a cheer

ATHENAI slammed the door and sat inside waiting for him to come around and drive. I could see him from the window completely frozen in place, the slap had taken him completely by surprise. It had taken me by surprise as well because I had no idea where it had come from. I was not even sure that I had it in me. Even now as I sat in the car thinking back on everything, I had no idea where it had come from. The only thing I knew at that moment was that I was severely pissed.My hands kept on vibrating even though I tried my best to steady it but it was very obvious it wasn’t working. I could feel the tears roll down my cheeks as I silently sobbed. I couldn't hold back the tears like I normally was able to, everything was very overwhelming for me.My mind was a mixture of anger, resentment, disappointment and embarrassment. There were so many emotions running through it and I couldn’t understand half of it. I clutched my head in my hands in a vague attempt at containing the overflowing t

RAFAEL“What happened?” Hernandez’s voice snapped me out of the thoughts I was having in the car.He was standing in the living room and I wondered what he was doing here for a brief second but then that was how he always was, popping in without prior announcement. It was obvious he wanted to know what was going on and what had happened at lunch but then I wasn’t in the right frame of mind to think of that now.For some strange reason, the only thought that was in my mind was the thought of her. It was the only thing I could think of throughout the whole car ride here. I felt this deep urge to talk to her ever since she ran out of the restaurant. It was very obvious that the whole conversation and scene had gotten to her deeply. For the first time ever, I had seen her cry and I had no idea how to feel about that.There was a part of me which felt anger at myself for even being this concerned about her. The fact that I found myself stealing glances at her all through the ride and wanti

EPILOGUETHREE MONTHS LATER“He is so beautiful.” Athena said, as she lifted up their baby and spun him around in the air.The past months after the baby had come had been nothing short of magical. She couldn’t stop staring at the baby and she thought about how different her life was now from how it had been just a couple of months ago. They were at a point of peace and Rafael had magically transformed into the sweetest person on the earth. She now saw him smile a lot, especially when he played with Jaden. They had both chosen the baby’s name together after a lot of arguments. It had been a funny scene to witness but at the end of the day, they had settled for Jaden and it was a name that suited him so well.“He has my eyes so of course he is going to look beautiful.” Rafael said, as he emerged at the door of the room.He had been standing there for a while watching his mother and Athena without them knowing. They were startled at first, but at this point they had gotten used to the f

RAFAEL“Watch your step.” I said, as I held her hands and led her into the house.She had absolutely refused my offers to carry her. In her words, she felt I had done enough. On the contrary, I felt I was yet to do enough. I was not sure if I could ever do enough to compensate for everything that I had put her through in the past few months. I felt it in my heart though, I was definitely ready to make amends for everything. That was the plan.The doctor had finally agreed to discharge her from the hospital and we got back to a welcome party from my mother. She had been extremely happy over the past few days. Ever since I told her the news at the hospital about how the baby might actually be mine, I realized that the glow which she had the first time she found out that Athena was pregnant had actually returned to her face. I couldn’t be hundred percent sure if I was the father, not until the baby was here and we were able to carry out a DNA test.I could feel it in my bones though. It

ATHENAMy eyes fluttered open, as I came to. A faint beeping noise continued to ring in my head, as I steered wondering where it was coming from. My equilibrium was still off and I had no idea what was going on around me. My mind felt like it was covered by a thick fog and it was very hard to get it clear. My eyelids felt extremely heavy and it was like they were being weighed down by invisible anchors. Finally, I was able to pry them open. It took some time for my eyes to get accustomed to the lighting in the room. There was a light which shone soft and dull right above my head, casting a pale glow across the room I was in.I looked around as it took me a moment to adjust, to process the white walls of the room it was in. There was the hum of machinery all around me, that was where the constant beeping sound was coming from and that smell. It was a very distinct smell which I recognized immediately. I had spent enough time in hospitals during my mother’s hospital to be able to recogn

“Athena!” Rafael yelled, as he rushed over to her side.He had watched her fall when he came out of the car and this had taken him completely by surprise. He knew that she could already tell exactly what had happened from the moment he stepped out of the car. The stench of failure was no doubt all around him and he had thought about it all through the drive to the house. He thought about how he was going to tell her that her father was dead and he had watched as Hernandez put a bullet through his head as he was unable to do anything about it. The mere thought of telling her such a thing troubled him so deeply and it showed on his face immediately he stepped out of the car.Without him saying a word, she could already tell that the worst had happened. The look in his eyes told more words than he could ever say. Athena had felt like she was going to cry, as if a great burden had just come upon her shoulder. A burden which was too heavy for her to bear. She felt like she was going to cru

RAFAELWe finally pulled up to the house and my mother was right outside to greet us. She was so happy that we made it out, as I watched her hug Athena deeply. She checked her to ensure that she was fine while she led her into the house. I could see a deep sadness on Athena’s face even though she tried her best to hide it for my mother’s sake. I could tell that she was greatly troubled about what happened to her father. Her words in the car kept on ringing in my head. She had asked me to help him and there was only one way I knew how to.Walking past them, I headed to my room upstairs and went straight to my wardrobe to bring out my box. This was where I kept my suit and weapons which I used when I raided Hermes’s warehouses. Every time I wore it, it meant that I was about to do something which I was not essentially going to be proud of. I stared at the box for a couple of seconds as I contemplated whether or not to open it. Questions danced around in my head as I wondered if doing th

The whole room seemed to be in a sort of chokehold, as everybody’s eyes bounced around. Hermes’s arrival had been quite unexpected to all of them and they had no idea what any of this meant or what he was doing here. From the way that he had burst in, his intentions could be told to some degree though. He was standing in between his two guards who had come into the room with him and he had a smile as he stared at the meeting which was going on at the table. Rafael most especially was very surprised by all that was going on. He wasn’t sure what to make of all of this as so many questions ran through his mind.He got up and walked over to Hermes as their eyes met.“What the fuck are you doing here?” Rafael asked,“And here I was thinking that you were an honorable man that I could trust, Mr Hall.” The investor said, as he sat up and adjusted his suit. “The last thing I was expecting was that you would bring the enemy right to my doorstep after you were the one that asked for this deal t

RAFAELAll through the night leading up to this, I found myself completely unable to sleep. This was certainly not a new phenomenon for me. Sleep had managed to elude me a lot during the past few days and I desperately hoped that I would finally be able to find rest when all of this was in the past. When Athena and the baby were safe and sound, I would finally be able to rest and think about everything. I had desperately avoided thinking about what Rachael had told me the other day. This whole time, I had not even considered the possibility that the child that Athena was carrying could be my own in any way. Initially I had seen it as a means to carry out my revenge on Hermes.Raising the child the way which he had raised me, that was what I had planned to do. That plan had since left my head, but then, I still had never considered the possibility of the child being mine. All I had thought was that the child was Athena’s ex’s and this had pissed me off so much for a reason that I was s

ATHENAEven as I sat bound to the chair with a bag over my head impeding my vision, the whole scene at the restaurant kept on playing in my head. I had seen the bullet go through Rachael as she slumped to the ground along with the gun which she had trained to my back. The whole thing had happened so fast and even though I had tried my best to get to Rafael, especially after hearing him screaming my name out loud, I wasn’t able to. I couldn’t get to him before the van pulled up beside me and the men tossed me in. As I sat in the room, I could still feel their presence all around me. I wondered who they were and nobody had bothered to tell me anything ever since we got to wherever this was. They had not spoken to me directly despite all the questions I threw their way. I was in a world where I knew no one and I struggled so hard to comprehend what was going on.I was sure of one thing though, these were completely different people from Rachael’s men. When we first got here, I had though

RAFAELWe all rode in silence as we headed to my house. Rachael was bleeding in the back seat and I had instructed one of my men to tend to her wounds. She kept staring at me without saying a word, but I could tell from the frown on her face that she was not pleased by anything that was going on. When I had offered her my assistance when she lay on the floor bleeding, she had initially tried to fight me. It had not been so much of a fight as her hand was not of so much use. The bullet was still lodged in there and I had already called the family doctor to meet me up at the house to perform a quick removal of it. The wound didn’t look entirely nasty and I was sure she was going to live through it.Hermes was not too pleased about my decision to keep her alive and he made this expressly clear. Even when I tried to place her in the back of the car, he expressly denied and insisted that he was not going to ride with someone who had been responsible for putting his daughter in harm. I coul
