Someone Like You Chapter Fifty Five
ElisabethThree weeks laterI stared at myself for quite awhile in the bathroom not really knowing what I was hoping to see but I knew one thing; I'd gained a few pounds since I got married. I was glowing, my eyes were bright and happy and there was not a day that I remembered what Ben had done to me.He'd made me the laughing stock and though I'd humiliated him by leaving him at the altar but I'd shed an ocean of tears because of him then I stopped. I stopped thinking about him and even my hatred for him was nonexistent now.I winced as a sharp pain made me clutch my abdomen and I groaned knowing what that meant but the pain intensified and I cried out."Beth? Are you okay?". Leon called from outside the bathroom door."Argh!". I fell to the floor as the pain became unbearable. It was worse than the usual cramps but I knew it wasn't just because I was having my monthly cycle but something else.The door opened and Leon came in, saw me on the floor and rushed over to meet me."What's
Someone Like You Chapter Fifty Six
Leon It had been fourteen hours since I found out that I was going to be a father and I still hadn't wrapped that fact around in my head. You could be wondering why I was so out of it considering I had a daughter already but Georgina was different. I didn't raise her since she was a baby, I didn't see her first walk or hear her first words and I certainly wasn't there when her mother was pregnant with her but this... I would get to see Beth grow heavy with my child and then once he or she arrived, it'd be like handling precious cargo. Beth had immediately called her parents to tell them the news and her mother hadn't stopped calling since five am this morning. She hadn't been able to get hold of her best friend but she'd left her a message. I should let my family know about the baby but I wanted to keep the news to myself a little while longer. "Babe, the hospital called." Beth walked into my home office. "The test results are ready." "Do they want us to come?". I asked. "Yeah. T

Elisabeth"Mom, dad... Beth and I have something to tell you." Leon smiled at me and squeezed my hand. "What is it?". Anna asked. "No, wait let me guess." She lifted her hand to stop Leon as he opened his mouth to talk. She scrutinized my face then let her gaze travel all over my body as if searching for something then her eyes zeroed in on my stomach as if she'd found the answer."Mom, let me tell dad if you don't want to know." Leon said."Oh hush." She swatted at him. "She's pregnant. Right?". She flashed us a blinding smile. "I'm going to be a grandma again?"."Really?". His father perked up at that. "This is not a prank right?"."No honey. She's really pregnant!". His mother squealed then stood up from her seat and came over to pull me in for a hug. "I'm so happy for us right now.""Us?". Leon looked confused."Of course. Your father and I." His mother beamed. "Why both of you? We're the ones pregnant." Leon frowned.I laughed and nudged his shoulder with mine.His mother let o
Someone Like You Chapter Fifty Eight
LeonI don't know what prompted me to come here but I couldn't stand the talk about multiple babies anymore. It felt like everyone was now an expert on the subject all of a sudden and it irked me which was why I had chickened out and called Liese to tell her the news but karma had decided that tonight was going to be my downfall and sent Beth here to hear what I had to say - my truth - because I'd been lying to her."Beth! Wait!". I ran after her as she turned and fled. King's meadow was a vast forest and she didn't know her way back home. I didn't want her to get lost or worse injure herself in her haste to get away from me. "Beth!"."Stay away from me!". She screamed.I caught up with her just as she almost tripped over a stone in her path and I steadied both of us."Let go of me!". She struggled against me. "Let go!".I released her and she whirled around immediately and slapped me across the face shocking me. I heard the guard behind me and lifted my hand to stop him knowing what
Someone Like You Chapter Fifty Nine
ElisabethMy words hung in the air as we stared at each other. Him with his mouth hanging open in shock and me... hurting because I had had no choice but to do this. I couldn't and didn't want to be his plaything, I wanted to be his wife - one he accepted and the mother of his child - also accepted. I wouldn't take anything less than that."What?". He rasped."You heard me." I said. "I want an annulment. This thing we call marriage is obviously not going to work so why stay in it?".He opened and closed his mouth several times then he turned and walked over to the floor and ceiling window and stared out."That's your final decision? An annulment?". He asked. "You're not going to think about the baby?"."I thought about the baby and I'm currently thinking about my baby which is why I think an annulment is best. You won't have to worry about me or the baby. It will be like I was never in your life." I told him. "I won't call you to tell you anything about the baby because like I told yo
Someone Like You Chapter Sixty
LeonSleeping beside Beth and not being able to touch her was hell. I wouldn't have had a problem with it before when we were still at loggerheads but now that I knew what she tasted like, how she felt around me... I literally had to ball my fists to keep from reaching out to her."You're fucked." I muttered under my breath. "Leon." Beth's sleepy voice called."Hmm?"."Why are you talking to yourself?". She asked. "Having trouble sleeping?"."Kinda." I said. "You?"."I'm finding it hard to sleep." She groaned. "My back hurts.""Why didn't you tell me?". I sat up in bed and leaned back against the headboard. "Come here.""You'll rub my back?". She looked surprised."Who else will do that if I don't?". I frowned then sighed when she bit her lip looking uncertain. "Beth, come on... Seriously?". Just because I had said I didn't want the baby didn't mean I'd let her suffer when she was in pain. I was an asshole but not that much of an asshole."I'm sorry." She apologized. "I just... I tho
Someone Like You Chapter Sixty One
Georgina knew her father would flip out if he found out that she was walking down the street with her boyfriend without her guards. She'd actually threatened them with bodily harm if they didn't follow them at a safe distance instead of shadowing them and they'd grudgingly accepted. She was after all the Princess so they had no choice but to obey her."Feels good to not have them shadowing us." Christian remarked. "I should have done this sooner." She chuckled."But won't your father be mad at you if he finds out?". He asked her."I can handle him." She smiled. "He listens to me."Suddenly they heard shouts and then they saw a crowd of people chasing a boy their age with sticks and clubs. He was seriously injured but some kind of adrenaline kept pushing him to run until his luck ran out as he made to cross the road and a motorcyclist hit him and Georgina screamed."Your Highness! We have to take you to safety." Her guards rushed towards her and surrounded her."No! They'll kill him."

Leon"He's your brother?". I stared at the boy in front of me. "What do you mean he's your brother?".Christian sighed and looked down at his feet. "My father got his mother pregnant and left her to marry someone else. That was before he came to Mercia eighteen years ago." He said. "I didn't know about him until last year when I heard my parents talking about him.""Let me get this straight." I lifted a finger. "You watched those men beat up your brother and you didn't do anything?".He looked up at me then but briefly. "They were armed sir." "But my daughter stopped them from killing him." I said."She's the Princess. They have no choice but to listen to her... Sir." He replied."I see." I nodded. "Anything else you know about him?"."He has two sisters and their mother died three months ago." He said. "My father threw him out when he came to ask for help."I glanced at Georgina who was staring at him as if she was just seeing him for the first time. She was probably as stunned as I
