All Chapters of Revenged The Mafia - Cruel Intentions Series Book Two: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Everly POV“You’re scaring me. What is going on?”, I ask, and he shakes his head, pulling me closer to his body again. “We need to move”, Theo says; whatever happened was serious enough for him to think we are not safe in a penthouse in the middle of the Upper East side. When we’re done in the bathroom, he gets dressed quickly and packs himself a small suitcase with essentials while I do the same. I put my hand on my stomach as I grab the only outfit I have bought for our baby while putting it in my luggage. Theo looks at me and walks out of the room, pulling his case not long after. He is back with a gun in his hand and stops in front of me while I close my suitcase after putting in my toiletries. “What’s that for?”, I ask, and he grabs my hand and puts the gun in my hand. I shake my head, trying to pull my hand

Everly POV“What do you need me to do?”, I ask, and almost instantly I feel Theo’s hands gripping my arms and spinning me to face him. His eyes blazing with hatred and fear. He looks me in the eyes, saying I am not going anywhere. Who the fuck does he think he is to talk to me like that? I am blaming the hormones for my outburst next. I can’t believe he is treating me like a child. Or like an invalid or someone he doesn’t trust to take care of business. I might’ve grown up away from all the mafia business, and I might’ve been kept away from everyone for my safety but I am tired of letting other people dictate how I live my life. I am tired of that. No, he won’t control me anymore. No one will. I am sick and tired of men thinking they can say and tell me what to do or how to live my life, how to dress, and how to behave. No. The innocent little girl is dead. She died the moment I was dragged into this life into a marriage I didn&

Everly POVI am just finishing braiding my hair when I hear a commotion in the house. I know Theo is back, but why hasn’t he messaged me? “Quick”, I hear Killian’s voice shouting from the end of the corridor. I stand up and open the door to find him ready to knock. He looks pale and tired. I knew the mission was big and would take a few days, and I knew they couldn’t contact us while still there, but I hoped he would tell me he was coming home. “Killian?” I whisper as I see him looking at me. He looks down at the floor, and then his eyes meet mine again. The anticipation of what is happening hits me hard. I look down the corridor, but I can’t see Theo.“Where is Theo?” I ask Killian. He licks his lips as he looks at me.“He is okay. He is down in the doctor's office”, he says, and my heart starts beating fast, Really fast, so fast I thi

Everly POVI understand he doesn’t want to talk to me, but the way he has been behaving is very odd. Every night he has these horrible dreams. I can’t understand a word he says as it’s all in Gaelic, but I can understand that he is distressed, and he is in pain. Every morning he wakes up with pain in his eyes as if the past is torturing him. “I’m sorry, my treasure”, Theo says as he wraps his arms around my bump. Soon we will be able to know if we are having a boy or a girl. I don’t think I want to know, but Theo is anxious, and I think he needs something to distract him from the painful memories he has been having. I keep doing my shirt without looking at him so he can’t see the pain in my eyes. I wish he would trust me with this. I Can tell he is fighting an internal battle, I can tell he is suffering, and all I wish I could do is to send that pain away, to r

Everly POVAs I open my eyes, I close them immediately. My head is banging, and opening my eyes means my brain has to work, and it is too painful. I move my hands slowly, and they stop moving as I feel I am restrained by something. I frown as the pain turns into sickness. My baby. Oh God, my baby. I force myself to open my eyes, and I am engulfed in darkness. I can’t see anything, and in a way, I am grateful because I don’t know how I would manage light with the pain I am feeling.I try to move my hands, and this time I can hear chains as I pull on them. I try to sit up, but I can’t. My entire body is on high alert while my head hurts, and my brain is working at a thousand miles. Is this something to do with my brother? Has he done this to me? How would he, anyway? It was someone in the house.Chris was right. They are going to kill me, no, don’t be stupid, Everly, Theo loves you, and he would never do this to you. He would never betray y
