"How the fuck did that happen?"

The movie was paused now and Lucas was on his feet, anger on his face.

"That apartment is a hundred percent secure. Before I rented one for you and your baby, I knew what I was doing. So, how the fuck did you get robbed and beaten?" He asked in anger.

I was sitting on the loveseat, the blanket still wrapped around me. Even though I didn't trust and like Cindy, I was worried for her and the child. Lucas' anger wasn't necessary right now.

"Call the cops. I can't come there," he said and ended the call. "Fucking hell. What kind of problem is this?"

"What happened? Who was that?" Evangeline asked, looking between every one of us.

"What happened, Lucas?" Axel asked. "The Cindy you were talking to, is she Josh Edgewood's cousin?"

Lucas sighed. "Yes... It's her and according to her, the child she is with or gave birth to is mine."

"Wow," Evangeline said.

"What the fuck?" Axel said in shock. "That can't be possible. Even I know that you use protection when

    |||I was still angry with Cindy for ruining my morning as I drove to the restaurant where I was supposed to meet my group mates for the school project. I was glad that I had Matt did something good for once by hosting a meeting because I was not ready to stay in that house with Cindy. I stopped my car along the road and got out. I spotted my group mates walking into the restaurant and I hurried after them. I walked in and located our table in the back, away from wandering eyes. Matt was already there, I wasn't surprised. With a sigh, I approached the table and greeted them before taking my seat."Hi," Bria said to me. "How are you and the baby?"Matt perked up at the question and I wondered if he didn't already know that I was pregnant."You're pregnant?" He asked, glancing down at my stomach."Yeah. Almost everyone in our year knows. Besides, we have this party or gifts we plan for the pregnant students in our year," Victor replied.Matt blinked. "Oh, you are serious in your relati

    |||I didn't have classes today, so I had the whole day to sleep as much as I want and eat whatever I wanted. I was extra hungry today and craving a lot of food from different restaurants. As soon as I told Lucas about it, he bought them for me and I took my time eating. From all the food I was eating, I was adding weight all because of this pregnancy. It was amazing but at the same time, tiring.After I was done eating, I made a quick lunch and made my way to the guest room. I knocked on the door and it opened. Cindy eyed me suspiciously then eyed the tray that had two plates of food."Good afternoon, lady Cindy," I said and she blinked. "I bring you your lunch.""What are you planning?" She asked."Oh, nothing. Weren't you the one who claimed that I didn't give you food yesterday? So, I am bringing lunch for you and your baby. Also, I saw the empty cans of your baby's food and had my boyfriend buy them," I said and handed her the tray."You didn't poison this, right?""I wish I coul

    |||I was forced to wake up from the feel of Lucas kissing my cheek and neck. I couldn't help but smile and roll onto my back. My smile dropped when I saw that he was dressed, reminding me that he had a race tonight. There were nights when I would get scared because, after my first experience with him, I knew his racing wasn't safe. Anything could happen but I saw how he loved the sport and it was hard for me to tell him to stop. "I'm heading out," he said and got out of bed."Okay," I replied and followed suit. I followed him out of the room and then wrapped my arms around his torso when he faced me. "Drive safe, please. Try not to get yourself killed."His chest rumbled as he chuckled then he wrapped his arms around my waist. I felt the warmth of his hug and sighed, feeling sad about him leaving. I wanted to snuggle up in bed all night with him."I will, baby," he said and kissed the crown of my head. "Now, let go. I'm going to be late. The guys are waiting for me downstairs."I p

    |||"I asked you a question, bitch," Cindy said."Watch your fucking mouth, Cindy!"I turned my attention to the short hallway leading to the front door and found Lucas glaring at her. Cindy turned around and rushed over to him."You don't understand. I left my son sleeping comfortably in our room and I came in and saw him sleeping in a dangerous position. I don't trust this girl, I keep telling you."I was frowning at Lucas, not caring about what Cindy was saying. He had a lot of explaining to do."Where are you two coming from?" I asked and they looked at me. "Babe—""No, I want a straightforward explanation. It starts now," I ordered and Lucas licked his lips before nodding his head."Jackie, I went racing last night and saw Cindy at the venue. I was confused at first and angry, as she had left home without thinking of her son."I nodded. "That wasn't what Cindy told me.""What are you trying to say? Lucas just told you what happened.""Really? Weren't you the one who told me that

    |||Lucas' POVAfter a long nap, I woke up later that afternoon, feeling hungry, and went to the kitchen to look for something to eat. Once I got to the kitchen, I was glad that I found some food already cooked. Knowing it was my girlfriend and not that witch who made the food, I served myself some and started to eat in the kitchen.As I ate quietly, my thoughts drifted off to the race. Cindy made me lose the race and it made me so angry that I had to let it out in the boxing ring at the race venue. I was about to get into my car when I saw her walk up to me.When I asked what she wanted, she claimed she was bored and wanted to come to see me race. I tried to chase her away but the race was about to start so that gave her the audacity to jump into my car. She distracted me throughout with her useless directions, tips, and motivation. I had lots of people betting on me last night and she made me look like a flop in their eyes and in the eyes of my boss who has been saying he was going

    Jackie's POVI stayed in the library even after Andrea had left. My mood had changed so drastically and it did not go away so easily as the image of Lucas and Cindy kissing stayed glued in my head. I knew I could trust Lucas and that he would never willingly kiss that woman but it hurt. The chances of the DNA result coming out positive would determine how our relationship would be and I have not been okay.Cindy was manipulative, that I could tell. No one knew what she could be planning. We suffered in the hands of Maddy now someone else with an obsession for Lucas walked into our lives. To feel comforted, I placed my hand on my small baby bump and stared at it. My lips tugged into a small smile as I imagined my baby safe and sound in my womb."I just hope we have our happy ending," I said and my stomach grumbled from hunger. "Really? Tsk, I guess you and I need to eat. Let's go see what's in the kitchen."As I rose from the couch, my phone rang in my pocket. I took it out and saw it

    A lot was going through my mind while I was panicking. Cindy had tears running down her cheeks, the baby had his mouth open while gagging, and Lucas walked into the kitchen looking shocked and confused. My body was rigid in its spot and almost sweaty as I watched what was happening."What's going on here?" Lucas asked but no one paid him any attention.I watched as Cindy turned her baby on its stomach on top of her arm and hit his back aggressively. "Your girlfriend wants to kill my baby!" Cindy yelled through tears. "My baby is choking!""What?!" Lucas looked at me and I shook my head. "I didn't do anything!""Shut up!" Cindy faced me while hitting the baby's back. "Just shut up and pray that nothing happens to my son!""I'm sorry." That was all I could say.Lucas went over to Cindy and took the boy away then positioned him in the same way Cindy had kept him. He started to pound his back while Cindy touched her son's head."It's going to be okay. Mommy's here."I covered my mouth w

    I did not understand what he was trying to say. His expression, body language, and tone of voice were not helpful to me at this moment. "What... What do you mean?" I asked, my voice shaking."Look, I understand that you may not like Cindy or everything about this situation... But leave the child out of this."I gasped in disbelief. My eyes widened and my mouth stayed open in shock. I couldn't help but chortle."Wait... Are you trying to tell me that you're blaming me for this?""Yes," he retorted. "I am blaming you. What is wrong with you? I hate Cindy, yes but I will never be so careless! What if the child had died?! Do you even think for someone who claims to be intelligent? How could you leave a child unattended and have him almost swallowing something hazardous?!"I slapped him across the cheek, sending his face sideways. My eyes were already brimmed with tears and my heart was pounding in anger."Don't you even dare try to say that to me!""I don't care what you want me to say.

    Jackie’s POV“Evangeline, please.”I laughed at the way Matt had spoken. He was so down bad for Evangeline who gave him an incredulous look. I watched him wrap his arms around her waist and put his face in her neck. I could see that Evangeline was blushing from his touch, and it made me happy for her. At least, Matt has become a new man and no longer the person he was, plus, he made her happy even though she still played hard to get. I shipped them so hard. The day they announced that they were dating, I would rejoice.“Are you done?”I looked away from the duo to Andrea who was pointing at the sliced apples on the chopping board. In her arms was Paul, who was sucking on his pacifier. He grinned when he noticed my attention was on me, making my heart melt.“Lucas’ mom wants to see you,” Andrea said, and confusion filled.“Me?” I pointed at my chest. “Do you know why?”“Girl, I don’t know. She just wants to talk to you about something.”I dropped the knife I was holding and wiped my han

I yawned and tried to stretch, only to feel a weight on my arm. I blinked and looked down, then smiled at the sight of Jackie sleeping in my arms. My heart fluttered at the feel of her body resting against mine, fitting perfectly.I held my breath when she moved and moaned before cuddling me more. I pressed my lips against her head and inhaled the sweet scent of her hair. I looked at the hand that was fisted on my bare chest then took it, lacing it with mine. I brought her hand close to my face and kissed the knuckles of her hand. I opened her hand and pressed her soft palm on my cheek before nuzzling it with my nose.She moaned and moved in my arms again, making me stop what I was doing. She moved her head against my chest, rubbing her nose on it before raising her head off it. I smiled when she co

    Lucas' POVI knew trying to trigger Henry was the wrong move but seeing Matt and Jackie with me gave me the courage to know that we would all walk out alive, but it seemed as if I was wrong as I watched him pull the trigger. The first thing that came to my mind was to protect Jackie, and how a repeat of what happened was about to repeat itself.But what I did not expect was for Matt to stand between us and Henry, taking the bullet. When he dropped to the ground, it felt as if everywhere around me went dark. My heart squeezed from fear and worry as I stared down at his body that lay unmoving on the floor.When Jackie screamed, I snapped out of my state and looked up with rage coursing through my veins. Henry was stiff from shock, and I took that as an opportunity to dash my way to him. I hit the and that held the gun, sending it flying away. Before he could react, I hit him in the face.

    Jackie’s POVFear was back.I could feel the fear just as I could feel the weight of the gun against my cheek as he began to count from number one. I looked away from Lucas to the side to try to stare at the monster. He had a nasty smile on his face, a maniacal one that reminded me of Maddy’s. It was crazy how there were psychopaths moving with us. Why couldn’t my love life have jealous exes who did not murder and crazy family members who didn’t just like their child’s partner?“Three… You’re not saying anything, son.”He needed to stop calling him that.My heart skipped a beat when he dug the mouth of the gun into my cheek, making me feel pain there. I gritted my teeth and tried to look over my shoulder at Matt. What was that fucker doing? He needed to cut the man off per our agreement.“Tw—”“Wait,” Matt said, getting our attention.I let out a sigh of relief and thanked the heavens when he left my head and let me fall back to the floor. I crawled over to Lucas’ feet and held his an

    Jackie’s POVI felt like I was going crazy from all the influx of emotions inside of me.Anger, sadness, guilt, worry and shame.They were at war within me as I tried to clear my mind, to remain sane, to be hopeful. I was forcing myself to believe that it was not my fault. I was not at fault for losing Drake and was about to lose Lucas too. I felt so stupid all because I wanted to get a few school items. If I had just waited a little more, or forgot about it, a stranger would not have snuck into our home and taken my child.Tears formed in my eyes, and I let them fall, heating up my cold cheeks. I sniffled and began to cry softly. I had no idea what condition Drake and Lucas were in while I sat in comfort. I hated feeling useless. I wished I could do something to save Lucas and Drake, but I was useless. I was barely healed from childbirth and that made me even more angry.I curled my body on the bed and cried harder, trying to force the pain in my heart to seize. I grabbed a handful o

    Lucas’ POVPain, dullness and a slight feverish feeling was heavy on me as I struggled to open my eyes. I started to feel confused, wondering where I was and what had happened, especially why it felt as if I could not move. My chest felt heavy and at the same time, it felt as if I could not feel one side of my body.I opened my eyes and hissed as an ache hit my head. I blinked multiple times before my eyes opened properly. I raised my head and groaned when my arm hurt so badly. I looked at the arm and saw that the sleeve of my jacket was stained with blood.“Finally awake?” A deep voice asked.I tried to sit up and grunted when I realized that I was tied to the spot I was sitting in. I looked down at my body and saw a thick rope tied around my torso, arms and legs. I raised my gaze to the person and frowned when I saw Henry. He was sitting on a couch across the room, holding a gun and a glass of wine.“Untie me, you bastard,” I demanded, and he laughed with a shake of his head.“I kno

    Lucas’ POVI returned to Rochester the following day the moment Ruth came to Atherton, saying she wanted to see her nephew. She was still pensive about Cindy’s son, Paul. She hated Cindy right from the beginning, even before Paul was conceived and her hatred now made more sense to her than before. So, when she texted me that she was in Atherton to see her nephew and not nephews, I knew what she meant. I already made her understand that hating a child that had nothing to do with how nasty his real mother was made no sense and she just told me she didn’t hate the boy.I just didn’t want any more bad blood between our families as our generation needed to move on and make amends from the damages created by our older family members. Which was why I was still stunned and somewhat relieved when the person who bought the night racing group was Matt Jefferson.

    Jackie’s POVEver since I saw the email stating that the scholarship I had applied for was a success, I have not been in the right state of mind. All I could think about was what Lucas would say or how he would react to the news.Looking at him now, it was hard to tell what he was thinking because of how blank his expression was as he read through the paper again and again. I knew this was going to be difficult. I had applied for the scholarship after Andrea sent me a link to the school since her family knew the dean. When I applied for it, I never thought he and I would get back with each other. I was scared now that we were back together. The scholarship would keep me out of the continent for years and it made me worried with fear.“Lucas?” I said his name softly.I watched the edges of his mouth twitch before it expanded into a smile. I was confused for a second before he looked up at me with an even bigger smile on his face. He opened his arms like before and I got even more confu
