Lady Of Arson

Rosa POV

Being pregnant was never on my list. I hid it from her for three weeks but I knew that she'd find out soon because she's that smart. Athena knew I was pregnant, that's why she always insisted I go to the doctor because she doesn't want to believe it.

I have far more secrets that I badly want to tell her but I can't for the sake of our safety and especially now that I am with child. I am a month pregnant so an abortion is not an option at this point and I'm not that evil to kill an innocent baby.

Angela finally left so she's safe wherever she is and it was best that she had left. Athena told me that I am going to live with my baby daddy since I'd be 'much safer' with him. Pfft as if, if I'm going then she's coming with me. I can't be where she isn't. I'm afraid to lose her and I really want to tell her why I rescued her that day but I just can't.

"Hey Rosa, I've been calling you." She plopped down next to me on my bed. "You haven't packed yet?" I shook my head.

"Athy, I don't want to go. If I go then you come with me. I can't be where you aren't. Please leave with me." I pleaded with her and I saw her eyes soften and she sighed with a small smile on her face. "Okay, we'll leave together." I pulled her into a hug and she squealed. This girl hates hugs.
"Aghh, you know I hate hugs." She gave me a disgusted look and I chuckled in response.

She got up and packed my clothes for me and she packed hers too. I love her. I smiled to myself and put my hand on my small bump. Even though this baby came unexpectedly, I will love it no matter what even if it's father is a bastard.

The next morning we left for his mansion, Dylan's mansion. I killed his right-hand man so the guy will despise me but I don't give two fucks about it and I know Athena isn't happy about moving to his home.

The black BMW came into view as we put in our luggage and left. Athena looked ready to kill, she was angry, a scowl on her face. Her leg was bouncing in impatience and irritation since the driver was driving quite slow. "Hey you, driver. Can you drive a little fucking faster. It's fucking stuffy in here." She said with irritation. The driver nodded and increased the speed and we finally arrive in 20 minutes.

Our luggage was taken by the maids as we entered the lion's den. The mansion was still the same as when I came to rescue Athy. Athy is short for Athena if you didn't know.

"If it isn't Athena and her friend Rosa," He snickered and the scowl on Athy's face was visible. "Welcome to my home ladies. " He smirked and his attention was on Athy as he spoke. She rolled her eyes and the maids showed us our room which was next to each other. How ironic.

I came in Athy's room and threw myself on her bed. Fuck these beds are comfortable. "They announced dinner downstairs, are you coming?" I asked her as she was lying on her bed. "No" she simply said. I sighed, "I'm sorry for dragging you here, I truly am." She sighed and closed her laptop. "You don't have to apologize, I'm here to protect you and make sure nothing happens while you're still pregnant." She gave me a soft smile which I gladly returned.

By the looks of things, this house will turn upside down with us. We went down to the dinner table and of course we didn't touch the food. We had to make sure it wasn't poisoned or anything. "It's not poisoned." His voice boomed as he sat on his chair at the head of the table. "Prove it." Athy pushed her plate towards him and gave him a challenging look, he eyed her then her food and took it in his hands.

He took a spoonful of food and ate it while looking at her and...nothing happened. I shrugged my shoulders and dug in and Athy gave me a weird look before she took back her plate and ate her food bit by bit.

The air was tense and some of the maids were exchanging looks  before they were caught by Dylan.

I know we rushed into things but I want my baby to be born in the presence of its father.

"When is he arriving?" I asked. "Tomorrow in the evening" He answered.

"Dinner was lovely." Athy got up and left the table and I could see his eyes following her movements as she walked up the stairs and the whole time, his eyes were glued to her. "Thank you." I got up and went to my room.

I sighed deeply as I lied on my back with my head against the headboard.
