Chapter 52
Khalid was walking in the dark with his boys when he spotted a lady running.
For a moment, he stopped and watched her, trying to figure out what was wrong with her.
He saw when she stopped running and sat on the floor, cuddling herself up and within the twinkle of an eye, he discovered it was Octavia.
His brows arched a little.
She looked pained, embittered, and he took slow strides towards her.

Octavia's eyes were still closed with her head leaned against the wall when she heard some footsteps - not just one, but many.
She snapped her eyes open immediately and could swear her heart stopped beating when she saw who it was.
Wait... Khalid???
Every pain in her body got flushed out as her eyes dilated in shock and she sprang on her feet. Although, the speed she'd used in getting up was out of the world

Octavia could feel her heart rumbling in her chest as she stared at Mica from the mirror, her eyes were nearly popping out of their sockets.If she had something in her hand, it'd have dropped immediately on the floor.She looked at Mica - from the mirror."I... I don't understand" she stuttered."Well, all these can't just be a coincidence, Octavia. The sudden illness, your weight gain, nausea... These are all the signs" Mica replied and sighed.Octavia's hands were already shaking."But I'll buy a test strip so we can run a test and confirm". She added and Octavia quickly turned to look at her."B...But, I had taken the pills, right? I had asked you to get me the pills and I had taken them...""Yeah. But you were 24 hours late, and you didn't take the pills all the time he had sex with you".&

Octavia sat anxiously in the room, her hands sweating beside her.She tried so hard to control the anxiety; tried so hard to stop herself from shaking, but she couldn't.Tears rested on her lids at the thought of being pregnant but wanting to flush the child. The whole thing was still like a dream to her.She sniffed and lifted her hand to her tummy, holding it tight.Well, perhaps, Mica was right.First, she couldn't bring herself to face Khalid and tell him she was pregnant. Secondly, she didn't think she was ready to become a mother. Hell! No way. She had no experience and wasn't in the right environment.Thirdly, Becca...How was she so sure Khalid would even want a child from her after she had killed his first child? And even if he did, what about Becca? Something in her guts told her the witch was never going to be at peace if she ever

Getting home with Mica, Octavia laid on the bed to rest and await the pains - the contraction.As she laid downwards on her tummy, she could feel tears threatening to spill her eyes, but tried real hard not to let it drop.Mica sat beside her and took her hand into hers."Octavia.." she called calmly.She didn't need glasses to see through her sister's pain - brokenness."I'm sorry you have to go through this" she added.A few seconds of silence passed, then Octavia asked:"Does it hurt...really bad?"Mica's jaws dropped instantly, but no - she couldn't bring herself to break in front of her sister."Well...yeah, it does" she sighed.There was a pause."How does it feel?" Octavia asked, her voice sounding so timid.Her hand was still in Mi

Standing in front of Khalid's room, the guard knocked and after sometime, Khalid's voice replied:"Let her in and leave".The guard opened the door and ushered the nervous Octavia in, while he shut the door afterwards and left.Octavia's hands were almost shaking beside her as she walked into the room and met Khalid in front of the window.Smoke was emitting from his corner due to the pipe he smoked and at a point, they almost made Octavia choke.She squeezed her eyes tight due to the smoke but when she felt Khalid turn to look at her, she quickly pushed them open."G...Good evening, Master" she greeted mildly, her heatt playing rhythmetical beats.She couldn't recall the last time she had been in this room, and having to be in it at this moment was really making her nervous."Octavia" he called gruffly as

Octavia could feel all the blood draining from her body. Her legs grew so cold and shook slightly as he turned away from her, walking back to the table.Good lord! He was really gonna do it? Even with how pale she looked? Because she was pretty sure her pallid mood should be obvious enough.With shaky hands, she took off her remaining dress and walked to the neatly arranged bed.She climbed on it, laying flat on her tummy. And as she did, she felt a little pain on her lower abdomen.Khalid emptied his drink and turned around to behold the prepared sight on his bed. He was pleased with it.He took off his shirt and took steady strides towards the bed to meet her.The bright lights in the room suddenly went off, leaving just the bright ones. And Octavia could clearly hear the Master's footsteps. Oh! They were scaring the life out of her.

Khalid stopped abruptly, his eyes in-between her legs.Octavia was already drawing her breath, finding it so relieving he'd stopped.Oh, goodness!Did she just say soemthing? Did she just spill the truth?Oh! Octavia! No. Octavia!"Octavia..." He called gruffly, his eyes still resting in between her legs, his brows furrowed in confusion."Why're you bleeding?"Octavia was a little shaken at the question.Bleeding?? She was bleeding??God! No.She gasped and withdrew from him since his hold around her had already lessened as well.Then, she looked down to her legs and saw the little stain. God! No. No."Octavia?" Khalid called, his single word containing so many questions.Octavia could feel it.&nb

Master Klaus was having a drink in his room when one of his boys came in, bearing goodnews. "We've gotten the girl, Master" he said and Klaus' cheeks got heated up instantly. "Perfect" he mumbled and poured himself some more drink. "Where's she?" "She's in the empty room - still asleep" "Good job. When she's awake, you let me know". "Yes Master". And the guard bowed and left. Klaus chuckled and drank from his glass, feeling so delighted with himself. Shortly, the door opened and Madagascar walked in. Madagascar- one of his trusted boys and the same person that had helped him with the arrow on Khalid. Tho, it didn't work out. "Madagascar" he beamed. "I've heard the good news. Octavia's in our custody"

Khalid was still motionless, didn't say a word as he listened to the call.Klaus couldn't hide his surprise any longer and scoffed."Are you even listening to me, Khalid?" Anger was cohorent in his voice.Then, Khalid breathed out and finally said: "you must be a fool Klaus, to think I'd ever such a thing. Stepping down for you - is something I'll never do even in death".Klaus vibrated in anger and mockery all through but tried all he could not to let it show."Well..." He sighed and said. "I'd have killed her right away, since your decision is already made. But then...she still has 12 hours to live. So, I'll keep that promise. Bye" And he dropped the call.Khalid clenched his fists as he brought the phone down from his ear and turned around to face the balcony.He could feel it - that anger. But it was something he was
