Illegal Lover

Chapter 2

The door closes behind her and my mind races with thoughts, none staying for long. I have a lot of questions but I know they are all ones that can't be answered anytime soon. When I met her at the bar a few weeks ago, she instantly caught my attention from across the room. The way she carried herself was unlike anything I have ever seen before and I had to know more. Upon doing so I realized that she was incredibly sweet yet had a darker side to her, and one she seemed to have a lot of control over. While part of me is skeptical as to if this kid is mine I doubt she would lie to me, she didn't even owe me the curtesy of telling me, and she had no idea who I was or the money I possessed yet for some reason she still made the effort to come down and tell me. And If this child is mine I am going to do everything I can to take care of it, and be more present in my kids life unlike my father. He loved me and I knew that but he was hardly ever around to prove it, and his words never matched his actions. However, with the type of business I conduct it can put Everlee and the baby at risk. I don't want to do that. There is a reason I don't sleep around. You never know what can happen and the damage it can do to other people. A hand waving in front of my face snaps me out of my thoughts.

"Zane get your hand out of my face before you lose it." I bark.

"Dude, you look like you are going to throw up your lunch, who was that girl?" He asks.

"Someone who I have a feeling is going to be around a lot more." I say simply, not willing to give away too much right now. the more that know the more dangerous this can become especially since a paternity test hasn't been completed yet.

"Okay, should I put her on the gate list of people allowed to enter?" He asks.

"Yes please. Make sure they know she is to be allowed in at any time morning or night." I say

"Of course but if I can ask what is her deal? She owe you or something?" He asks.

"You can not ask questions about her but to ask the only question I will answer right now is no she doesn't owe me anything now quit asking questions. you will know what I want you to know, when I want you to know it. Understand?" I snap.

"Understood, Geeze man I was just trying to help no need to bite my head off." He says his hands raised in surrender. He sinks into the seat in front of my desk.

"Did you need anything or was your soul purpose of coming into my office to piss me off?" I ask my patence growing thin.

"I came in to tell you that a car has been parked outside since the girl got here but that no one has gotten out." He says.

"Let's go take a look shall we?" I ask.

He nods his head standing up and following me out of my office. We go downstairs and to the camera room.

"Show me the front gate camera." I say as we enter the room.

They click a few buttons and quickly pull up the footage. I watch it and as Everlee leaves and pulls her car out the car waits a few seconds before following behind.

"I want someone to follow that car now." I bellow curiosity filling my mind.

"Ethan why use our resources for some girl? "Seth states.

"Did we not vow to protect all people in this city? Now have that car followed and I want to know who drives it." I reply walking out of the room before anyone could protest.

I walk down to the work out room next to my bedroom. As usual it is empty. I walk over to the punching bag taking swing after swing at it. I let the frustration and worries flow off me. I have no idea what I am supposed to do, or feel. I need to know if this baby is mine and the next few weeks are going to be absolutely horrible. I do feel bad for acting like such an asshole to her and that is defiantly playing a part in the way I feel. I walk out of the room and over to my office finding Seth sitting in my seat.
