ATHENA

You know there is a saying that a person’s life falls apart at least once before they die

Well, they are not wrong.

I am living in hell.

One would think that a one night stand would be fun and free of consequences.

I mean that is why it is called a one night stand… so it happens and we never think of it again.

Whatever could go wrong?

Allow me to tell you!

You could get pregnant and locked up in a penthouse to bear a child you do not want while the bastard who has knocked you up is gallivanting half way around the world with other women on his arms.

He claims he will not allow you abort the child and you must give birth under his care.

How stupid could I be?

The one time I decide to do it… my very first time and I get pregnant?

I glared at the man on the TV, my eyes watering which forced me to look somewhere else.

One hand reached for my belly, patting the bump slightly. I could not feel any movement yet but then again, the doctors said it was too early to feel anything and much too early to decide whether the baby lives or dies.

I did not care either ways, I was never cut out to be a pregnant woman much less a mother and I wanted out of this skin as soon as possible.

I recalled the conversation that had led to this dreadful moment as clear as day.

The bastard had kidnapped me!

According to him, he wanted another night of sex… unbridled passion but that was before we both found out that I was pregnant and the child might as well be his.

“You will stay here until you are due and have delivered and then I will take the baby and you can go wherever you want to go” He had said.

“I am not keeping this child. Have you lost your fucking mind?”

I had shivered then as his eyes went cold and they pinned me with fury.

He was so unlike the man who had winked at me at the bar and had devoured me as soon as we got to the hotel room.

This man in front of me could snap my neck without blinking and he would not think twice about it.

“I am sorry if you thought I was asking you. You will do nothing to my heir in your belly”

And that ladies and gentlemen, is how I became stuck here with a lunatic.

I sighed, rising to my feet with my head spinning.

“Are you okay, miss?” I heard Ella’s voice ask.

She was a sweet girl who had been asked to watch over me for the duration of this pregnancy and to top it all off, he had also assigned guards to me. They were manning the doors, no doubt waiting for me to try to escape so they could tie me up.

“I am fine, I just need to lay down” I smiled in her direction.

If I was going to be here, without so much as a phone, then I might as well make friends with her.

I walked away, up the stairs with Ella trailing behind me.

He had insisted that we both sleep together.

I scoffed at this

Who the fuck knocks a woman up, refuses her an abortion and still insists on them being together in a fucking room?

Rafael Hall… that’s who.

“You do not need to follow me around” I said, turning to Ella. “I have no plans to kill myself”

She nodded her head but when I took another step, she did too.

I closed the room door in her face, bounding up to the bed and sinking into it.

I yelped as strong hands grabbed me from behind circling around my waist.

“What the fuck!” I screamed, trashing with as much strength as I could muster.

“Calm the fuck down, woman” I heard the voice then.

He released me, pulling the blanket away from his face.

My breath hitched in my throat as I beheld the sight of Rafael’s morning face with his hair tousled and his lips pink.

He looked like an absolute angel… or a scheming devil.

“What are you doing here?” I asked

“Sleeping in” He responded promptly, his eyes roaming my body to settle on my stomach.

Of course!

“Shouldn’t you be at work?”

He moved and I yelped for the second time that morning, rising immediately and glaring at him.

“What? You were sitting on it” He had a smug look on his face.

“And you should not be this hard in the freaking morning”

“I had dreams, Athena” He breathed.

Dreams, I gulped.

If his dreams were anything like the ones I had the previous night then…

“A penny for your thoughts?”

“Do not act like we are friends, Mr Hall. You kidnapped me, forced me to sign some agreement that I would remain here until I have birthed your baby and now you are poking me with your dick”

The smug look disappeared from his face.

“Excuse me” He muttered, rising to his feet.

I tried not to look… I swear I did but boy was he freaking built!

My eyes trailed his perfectly sculpted butt hungrily.

“Eyes up when you are done ogling me, Athena” I heard him say.

His hands were folded across his chest and his eyes were amused.

“What?” I snapped, glaring at him.

“I understand that this is a lot for you and…”

“You think?” I interrupted.

“But you are going to have the baby and I am going to make it worth your while. You signed the contract remember? And you pored over it for days until you were sure it was worth it”

“Yes but…”

“There are no buts. We did not get into this situation because we wanted to and honestly, there is nothing I want more than to see you out of here”

My heart jumped at this.

There is no way I am feeling hurt, I reassured myself. I am probably gaseous due to the pregnancy.

“I was wondering however if you would like to eat breakfast out with me today” He concluded.

“I do not think so”

“You will have breakfast with me this morning” He said. “There… that is the right phrase”

I glared at him and he smiled.

I annoyingly loved his smile.

It always found a way to lighten up his face in that sexy godlike way and drove the butterflies in my belly on full rampage.

“I will leave you to freshen up and I shall be in the other room”

I nodded while he walked away, the door closing abruptly behind him.

It wasn’t long before I was done. I had chosen a dress, flowery printed which accentuated my curves and the blue in my eyes.

And No, I did not think of him while doing this so do not even have that thought in your head!.

I slid the door open, coming face to face with him.

His eyes darkened as he stared at me, gobbling me up.

“Done ogling me?” I teased, stepping out to the hallway.

“Not even in the slightest” He grinned.

He helped me down the stairs and then into his car.

“You know you haven’t told me the real reason you want a child so bad” I started a conversation.

“I do not want a child so bad. I just want this child badly”

“Why?” I shot.

“I am against abortion” He responded quickly… much too quickly.

“Oh come on, you do not really expect that I will believe that crap”

“You are one very difficult woman, do you know that? Many ladies would jump at the opportunity of having a child for me and…”

“I am not many lady” I cut him short. “And I did not know who you were when we had sex”

I blushed at this, avoiding his gaze.

I did not want to think about that night or the feelings of pleasure he had evoked in me.

“You never did tell me why you were at the bar that day” He prompted

“And I have no plans of telling you”

Telling him would be admitting that I had been heartbroken and decided to be reckless. I had just returned from the wedding ceremony of my fiance. The man who had claimed to love me with every inch of his soul and the asshole I had given my all.

He sent me an invitation in the mail to his own wedding with a hand written apology of how sorry he was that things did not work out between us.

“But you could tell me the reason you were there” I asked, turning to observe his side profile.

“I followed you”

“Excuse me?” I chuckled.

“I saw you in your pretty little dress with tears streaming down your face and I followed you, watched you dry them up and enter the bar so I did too because I wanted to know you”

I was staring at him now, unable to breathe another word.

He turned then, his eyes meeting mine.

“I want to know the asshole who made you cry and I want to make him bleed”

    ATHENAI am sure I imagined it, I thought.The goosebumps coating my arms at the moment however would say otherwise.I had felt it… that chill and hate about him. It almost made me whimper in fear.“I did not know they kicked so early” He commented, his hand still on my stomach.There was a slight smile on his face now, nothing like what I had seen.“Yeah, the doctor did say anytime now” I told him.He nodded slightly, removing his hand.“Are you not going to eat anymore?” He asked.I stared at the food, my appetite suddenly gone.“I think I am full” I told him.“Shall we leave then?” He rose to his feet, putting a hand out to help me.I took it without saying a word in protest and allowed him lead me out of the restaurant and back into the car.He must have noticed something was wrong because he spurn me around, his arms coming to my shoulders.“You are suddenly awfully quiet” He commented.“I just do not feel like talking after eating” I told him, taking a breath.I was unable to me

    RAFAELAm I losing my fucking mind?Maybe that would be the reason I am so disturbed by her.How many times do I have to remind myself that she is the enemy and the plan is to destroy everything she holds dear?Maybe she wasn’t the enemy but the apple never falls far from the tree and her father was my nemesis.Imagine my surprise when I had learned about her identity and the fact that she was the daughter of the man who had kidnapped me as a child.The man who had ruined my life and who still plagued my dreams.I sunk into my chair in the study, not wanting to be around her any longer.I had almost let down my guard today at the restaurant.For a brief moment when I felt the baby kick, I had been reminded of Rachael… so full of life who had been pregnant too at the time I was kidnapped.She did not tell me how she came about being pregnant but she was also experimented upon and died in the process.Athena’s father is a doctor you see, one of the most top performing surgeons in the co

    ATHENA“What do you mean by you don’t know where he is?” he asked me,He looked overly concerned as he asked and completely surprised by the fact that I didn’t know where my father was. This didn’t take me by surprise though because who wouldn’t be surprised by that fact.How would one not know where their own parents are?Sometimes it even surprised me and I found it very funny on other days, days such as this. A little laugh escaped my lips, an uncomfortable laugh. I found the fact that my father took off without me absolutely hilarious, given the fact that he always treated me like the best part of his world but then I guess the best part of his world did not belong in his world anymore.I shouldn’t be as shocked by his disappearance though, this would not be the first time that he would up and leave for months on end but then, something about this time felt extremely different. I had the feeling that he wasn’t planning on coming back.He had been radio silent all this time and all

    RAFAELThe clattering of the books as they fell off the desk was very loud as I flipped the table over almost immediately as she walked out the door. I was extremely furious at everything that she just said.What does she mean by she doesn’t know where her father is?I knew he had dropped off the radar for some time now and I had no idea where he was. I had been tracking him for some time now before he suddenly disappeared without a single trace and all my trials to find him had proven to be unfruitful. Her appearance in my life had given me renewed hope and now that hope had just been dashed by the fact that she knew nothing.The thought that she was probably lying about it flashed in my mind but then I remembered the look she had on her face when she was talking. That was the look of someone that was hurt by what they were saying. She really had no idea where he was but just to be safe, I was not going to just rule out the fact that she could still know.She was his daughter, he lov

    ATHENA“Who are you?” the woman asked, as she looked in my direction.I immediately froze in place, completely unable to say anything or even move as I tried to figure out who she was. She looked much older than Rafael so I wasn’t sure if she was one of his love interests or just a casual person. She had this calm elegance about her, as her eyes bounced from me to Rafael who was standing in front of her.“Who is she?” she asked him this time,“She is-” he began to stutter, struggling to explain who I was.A similar question danced in my thoughts as I wondered who she was. Her green eyes continued to look at me as she awaited a response from Rafael which didn’t seem like it was coming anytime soon.I saw a smile form on her face as she no doubt noticed how nervous she made me and how nervous even Rafael was.“I didn’t know you had a girl over.” She said, with a slight chuckle. “Why didn’t you tell me?”She hit him across the shoulder with a friendly, loving demeanor.“I wasn’t sure how

    RAFAELMy mother’s visit had been an unexpected surprise but then it was still a welcome one. In a way I had missed her extremely much and the only reason why I had not been to see her was really work and how busy I had gotten trying to use all my resources to track down Hermes King. Even though it had taken me completely by surprise, I was still happy she was there.Explaining to her that I had kidnapped the daughter of the man who had kidnapped me when I was much younger and she was expecting a child for me would be too much work. It was better for me to just play along with what she thought in her mind. For now she thought me and Athena were a thing and most likely in love and that’s just how it had to seem at least until it wasn’t possible to keep up that facade.I pulled out my phone from my pocket as I closed the door and dialed Charles’s number. Charles was the private investigator that I had hired to help me carry out business. He was the best tracker that I knew and if there

    ATHENAHe kept on stealing stares and glances at me all through the dinner and for some very weird reason I found it cute that he couldn’t take his eyes off me. Our eyes met a couple of times and there were times he held my gaze before I averted mine and continued the conversation with his mom. There was something different about the last look we shared though, I could feel the intensity of his eyes bearing down into me like he was trying to bore a hole through me.This made me entirely uncomfortable and I started stuttering my words when I was talking to Christine. Even at that, his eyes were still completely fixed on me and I could get that vibe once again. That sinister aura which I had felt at the dinner and in the car back then, there it was in full force once again and this time I couldn’t possibly just dismiss it as nothing.I looked at him questioningly but that didn’t deter him even a little bit, if anything, it spurred him on even more. This made me extremely uncomfortable a

    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
