RIEKA POV " Shut up, Rieka" He says simply, turning to lie on his side, such that he is staring at me and I him. We stay like that for a while in a silence, before I speak. " I missed this" I confess breaking the silence " What?" He ask " Lieing next to you, sharing a conversation" I say " I miss it too. You know, we can always go back to the way we were, that's if you want to" He suggest " I will love nothing more, but I am afraid that is beyond our reach now" I inform " But why?" He ask " You will know in due time. Can we just forget about our predicament, and enjoy the moment?" I question " I guess we can do that" He says with a smile "You know I still love you, right"" I know and I love you too" I inform. " I am tired, I will just go to bed now" I inform before leaning forward and giving him a peck on the lip " Good night"I don't know what came over me, that edged me to do that but it seemed like a wrong move, because it arose something in Gabriel, well more like the t
RIEKA POV Everyone is in a state panic, and I can hear them calling Gabriel names, a few even suggest they call the police. " Gabriel please stop" I beseech him, pulling him away from Ralph" Let go of me, Rieka. I will teach that bastard a lesson" Gabriel yells. " Gabriel you're going to kill him" I inform " And he deserves it. How dare him hurt you, in your condition" He adds" Gabriel calm down. You really don't want to stain your hands with his blood" I explain Ralph successfully composes himself and rises to his feet, but instead of apologizing, he insults " Stop acting like you care, prostitution. You're so shameless screwing two brothers" He yells at me.I seriously wish he could stop cursing already ." Shut up, Ralph" I command " Don't you dare shut me up, whole" He shamelessly insults, making everyone gasp.Right now I so want to punch that stupid face of his but I have almost successfully gathered all the evidence I need against him, so I really need to gain his trus
RIEKA POV I can't believe Ralph is so stupid to believe the trash I said. It's true what they say though a fool always considers himself wise.I have to round up with my evidence today itself. I can't start being under the same roof with this jerk anymore. I can't stand his touch, to think he has the balls to hug me after almost killing me and making my life a living hell. 'I wonder where Gabriel is right now. It's almost dinner time and he isn't back yet. I hope he's safe. ' Is he still mad at me'- I question inwardly, as I hear a knock at my door. ' bet it is that annoying Ralph again'- I think before opening the door " Ralph, what do you want?" I ask before seeing who it's. It's Gabriel standing there with a frown. He reeks of alcohol and his eyes are fuming red." Rieka, please can we talk?" He questions calmly " Sure, come in" I give him the go ahead and he walks in. I take a seat and offer him one but instead he just goes down on his knees " Gabriel, what are you doing?"
GABRIEL POV " Get me a doctor" I shout as I carry an unconscious Rieka into a nearby hospital. Her skin is covered with bruise marks from the fall and her skin looks pale from the excessive bleeding. I carefully place her on a stretcher and she is wheeled into the emergency room. " Doctor please do anything to save my wife and the babies" I beseech him " I will do my best " He says entering the emergency room. I stand there confused in the hallway.God I need your help. I didn't mean to cause all of this. If only I had known that trying to hurt her feelings would result in this , I would have never gone through with it.Last night after I left the pack I was so furious and hurt, because I couldn't fountain the fact that she would choose to stay with my brother, despite the fact that he hurt her so much, in the past and even went as far as trying to kill her. I drove to a nearby club to get my mind off her, but the more I tried, the more I missed her. Eventually, I got to bored a
GABRIEL POV " Doctor tell me, what the problem is?" I question when we enter the doctor's office, mom tries to follow earlier but I refused. " The thing is Mr Laurenzo, I am afraid that your wife's womb got affected by the fall" He says as though it was obvious " I already know that, so why are you reminding me?" I ask nonplussed " No, her tubes were damaged before, preventing her from conceiving, but now her womb is no longer conducive to harbor your babies" He says " What are you trying to say doc?" I ask confused " I suggest we flush the fetuses out" He says simply , making me angry " Flush it out. Those fetuses you so badly want to flush out are my children" I yell angry " But that's the only way. There's a 99% chance that the kids wouldn't make it to the 9th month and even if they do, she is going to have to undergo a CSI in which you would be forced to choose between your wife and kids, or worse they might all die, then all her suffering would be for nothing " He says W
A WEEK LATER GABRIEL POV " Sir it's time" A police officer says. Earlier today I and Rieka came over to summit the evidence against Ralph and I equally turned myself in." ok. please I will like a word with my wife" I say and he leaves " Babe, I have to leave now" I inform Rieka and she burst into tears " Don't go Gabriel, Please" She beseeches me in tears " Babe, we spoke about this already. You promised you weren't going to cry" I remind " I know but this is different, we're finally here and I don't know why they can't just let you go, after all you did nothing wrong, and you are helping them catch the actual criminal" She says " But I did, I was an accomplice remember" I say and she intensifies her crying " Don't worry babe we will be together pretty soon" I assure, pulling her into a hug " Mom please take care of my queen and our children" I beseech mom" I will son. Take care of you" She says as I pull away from Rieka, and just then 3 police officers walk in with Ralph i
RALPH POV This can't be happening to me, I can't be sentenced I did nothing wrong. That bastard was a nemesis to society. I did this world and his brother a favor, by eliminating him.I think, they have bribed this stupid judge to give me such a harsh punishment, and what does Gabriel get? a few months, propostros." Court close" The announcer says and the police officers, who brought me earlier come to lead me out.Normally, I would create resistance, but I don't want to make the situation worse. I walk towards Rieka, and she is all smiles, as if thought to infuriate me. It's hurts but I won't let her know she's getting to me " Enjoy while you can, because I am coming for you" I whispered in a slightly audible tone, making sure only her could healr." Good to hell" she says " I will take you with me, princess" I say with a smirk. " Get him out of my sight" She orders the police officers and they wheel me out.~~~~~~~~Night one in this penitentiary feels like hell. the food is c
GABRIEL POV " Mr Laurenzo, you are free to go" This are the best words I have heard in months. Today is the 3rd happiest day in my life, after the day I got married to Rieka and the day I found out she was pregnant, and I was going to be a father. A certain wave of excitement watched over me as I patiently waited for the gates to open, and there's the one person I wanted to see, Rieka and I can't help but stretch my lips into a broad smile.She was wearing a short, long sleeve, loosely fitted pink dress and matching low sleppass, She had fairly light makeup on and her hair was cut to shoulder length which suited her perfectly. " Welcome home my love" She says with beautiful smile as she runs into my arms with a warm hug out of excitement. " You are finally mine, once more" she adds, in a teary voice " I way always your, in mind and spirit" I assure her as she pulls away from the hug and I wipe her tears off. " Let's go home" I inform and she nods in approval " Thanks police offi
