An Omegas Baby (BOOK TWO)

01.

**Moxie**

The smoke was thick and the more I tried to breathe, the more my lungs burned like the fire inside of the building did.
There was no windows for me to scream for help out of.
Just like there was no door.
I was in a box that was burning with no escape route.
My heart was racing against my chest as I slammed my fists against the walls, finding them harder to hit as my head began to pound from the smoke that was filling the box.
It felt like it was getting smaller the more I struggled.
Like when you're in quick sand, the more you struggle the faster you sink.
But I can't sink.
Not yet.
I had a mate, I had family and a baby on the way.

My legs tried giving in underneath me as I coughed, my eyes hurt and my vision was getting worse.

"You should of killed me when you had the chance."
My blood ran cold like ice as I dared myself to turn around to face him.
My heart was pounding now as I turned and wanted to cry.

"Ace." The words tasted bitter as I stood there pushing myself against the wall as he stood there in front of the flames, there was so much anger and hatred in his hazel eyes as he glared at me.
"I lost my wife because of you-"
"You lost your wife for lying about Monty, for trying to kill Mistral! You have no one to blame but yourself, for being an awful person!" I coughed over the smoke as he glared harshly at me.
"No I can blame someone, and that's you for being alive! If I had it my way, you would of been living on the streets, or even better. You would of been abandoned in that hospital like I had wanted, but your mom was a crying mess that she wanted you!" He growled at me.
"Which as it turns out, you weren't even my fucking child!" He stepped forward but there was no where for me to run.

"I wasted time and patience on someone who wasn't even a full Ellison." He stepped forward and just as I went to run.
Hands were grabbing my shoulders and it felt like blades were piercing into them as I screamed.
I looked over my shoulder and fear struck like seeing Church there now.
My brows knitted as he kept me still.
Ace was in my face and his eyes were dark.

"I can't tell you how much you have fucked up, not just for yourself but for that parasite you leeched yourself onto!" He yelled ripping my jeans down that exposed my mark Magna left me.
"You destroyed this family, you destroyed all chances of living a full life, because once I get out of the cage you sent me to?" Ace leaned in with a soft smirk.
"Your head will be the first one I come after." He snarled looking up at Church before smirking.

"Try again, but maybe this time, kill him before I get the chance?" Ace suggested disappearing into the smoke as I went to pull away from Church but was slammed into the wall and I fought myself from losing consciousness.

"I'm going to enjoy this." He whispered and without warning, pain through my body the moment his fangs pierced my hip, where Magna's mark had been.
"NO!" I screamed.
Church smirked deviously biting in deeper and I couldn't control it.
I screamed.
So loud it woke me up.

"NO! STOP PLEASE STOP!" I screamed tossing and turning in the bed.
"Moxie! Moxie, wake up!" I felt hands on my shoulders and it felt like ice as I screamed louder.
"MOXIE!"
My hazel blue eyes shot open as I lied underneath the one I loved, his expression was worried as he kept his brows knitted while his green eyes examined me.
He carefully caressed my cheek as I relaxed by his touch.

"Are you with me now?" He questioned quietly as I lied there with burning eyes, tears begging to fall as I stared up at him in silence.
It was another nightmare.
Ever since we had Church and Ace thrown in prison for murder and attempted murder, I've had nothing but bad dreams.
And I knew it was upsetting our child more than me because he had no problem making me feel sick in the mornings.
