His Mafia Princess - J.H

Chapter 94

Jaden pov

I woke up to the sound of the dogs barking. Someone probably opened the back door and they've all scrambled to get out. I opened my eyes and was immediately confused because the lights above me weren't the ones in the bedroom.

I sat up and looked around noticing I was in the living room and not our bedroom. Why am I here? I got up and groaned at how stiff my back was from sleeping on the couch. I folded up the blanket and put it back in the cupboard after sorting out the pillows again, knowing Mirri would go apeshit if I didn't.

I wanted a bottle of water so I went to the kitchen to grab one. I almost jumped when I saw Mirri stood there. I saw her put a pill in her mouth as she drank more of her water and swallowed. That was strange because she hasn't told me about any medication she's been prescribed since she was pregnant. I saw her mess around with the packet before she put it back in the cupboard, noticing they were painkillers. Is she in pain again and just not telling me?

"Morning." I mumbled, rubbing my eye and walking further into the kitchen.

I walked over to the fridge and grabbed out a bottle of water. Nothing. Not even a hum to acknowledge what I said. I don't even think she looked up at me. I shut the fridge door and looked over to see her back turned to me.

"Good morning princess." I tried again. Absolutely nothing. "Hello? Baby?" Still no response whatsoever.

I walked over and stood behind her, resting my hands on her hips as I leant in to kiss her cheek. That was before she moved her body away from me and dodged it. What the fuck?

"What the-"

"You smell like alcohol." She spat as she moved to the other side of the island. What the fuck did I do?

"So you can talk to me?" Idiot.

"Fuck off Jaden." She shook her head as she finally looked up at me.

I fucked up. I can see it in her eyes and face. She's absolutely exhausted. Her eyes are sunken in and she has very visible dark circles under them. Her eyes themselves were also dull. It's almost as if any colour has completely drained from them.

"What happened baby-"

"MiMi, can you help me with this please?" Louie asked as he appeared from the back door.

"Of course." She forced a smile as she turned away from the island and made her way over to him.

Her voice is coarse. She's been crying again. It makes some sense, since she's been pregnant she can't take her anti-depressants because it's harmful to the baby. Why didn't she tell me?

I put the bottle down and made my way up the stairs. I needed to talk to Remi. She's got to have known what happened yesterday. Stefan was as useless as I was in this situation. Neither of us will remember.

"Fucking hell Jaden. Be patient." She mumbled as she opened the door. "Jesus, you need to shower. You smell like alcohol." She stated as she rubbed under her nose.

"Yeah, whatever. Has Mirri spoken to you? She seems to not want to talk to me at the moment and can't stand to be in a room with me." I asked her as she rolled her eyes at my question.

"And rightfully fucking so with the way you two treated her yesterday. You spoke to her like she was a fucking waitress and then proceeded to laugh and tease when she got another pain because Stefan used her as a balancing beam." She scoffed as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"No, but this seems like it's more than that. She doesn't want me to touch her at all. She physically cannot stand me touching her. I can't even stand near her without her trying to move away." I mentioned.

"Well, that's a question for Mirri then isn't it? That's all I know because at that point I had come down to get Stefan so she only had one ass to deal with. Which she shouldn't have to deal with you at all actually. She's pregnant Jaden. She's not your fucking mother so don't treat her like it." She ranted as she shut the door in my face. Fucking excellent.

"Mirri?" I asked carefully as I opened the door to our room.

I saw her go in here about an hour ago and she had yet to return. After my conversation with Remi, I immediately went to shower and try to figure out what I did that upset Mirri this much.

"What do you want?" She asked as she looked up at me, putting the papers she had in her hand down.

"Baby, what did I do?" I asked her as I sat opposite her on the bed, causing her to curl up her legs away from me.

"You know, the fact that you don't know just makes it ten time worse for me." She muttered as she tried to read through the papers again, causing me to try and take them out of her hands.

"Don't fucking touch me." She shouted at me as she stood up off the bed, aggressively pulling her hands away from me.

"Princess, what the fuck did I do yesterday? Why are you reacting like this?" I asked her as I stood up as well.

"You really wanna know?" She asked as she crossed her arms over her chest. Her eyes glistened as she looked up at me, showing she was on the verge of crying.

"Yes. I wanna know why you don't want me anywhere near you." I answered.

"You really scared me yesterday. Four times. Four fucking times Jaden. I had to tell you no four times because you couldn't get it through your thick skull that I didn't want to have sex with you. And hell, even after I told you no, four fucking times, you still continued to try and undress me. I slapped you and pushed you away from me." She answered, emphasising how many times she told me to stop.

I felt my stomach turn with every word she said. The fact that I scared her so much to the point that she resorted to violence to get me to stop made me sick.

"You slapped me?" Wrong fucking question.

"That's what you're fucking concerned about? That I hit you? That's not where your priorities should fucking lie Jaden. I. Was. Scared. Of. You. I was scared that you weren't going to listen to what I was saying and that you were going to do something I didn't want you to. And all you fucking care about is the fact that I slapped you after numerously asking you to stop? I can't fucking believe you." She shook her head as she let out a lord of tears.

"No I-"

"I don't wanna fucking hear it Jaden. Just get out." She cut me off as she pointed to the door.

"No- Mirri I'm trying to-"

"I don't fucking care. Get out." She screamed at me.

"Okay, okay. I'll leave. But please calm down, I don't want you to hurt yourself or the baby." I said as she scoffed.

"You didn't fucking care yesterday, so don't pretend like you do now." She spat as she walked over and opened the door, signalling she wanted me to leave now.

I sighed and walked over to the door. As soon as she saw me start to move, she moved away from the door and to as far away from me as she could. It hurt to know I scared her this much, but I only had myself to blame for it.

"I really am sorry baby." I said genuinely as I turned to look at her, tears still streaming down her face.

"Shut up Jaden." She dismissed as she sat back down on the bed. I shut the door and hit my head against it as a flood of tears fell down my face.

My own girlfriend is scared of me.

I pushed off the door and punched the wall in front of me. Hard enough to hear something in my hand crack and put a dent in the brick to be caused. I ignored the pain that went surging through my hand and made my way out of the house.
