~Sheo~ It Takes Time {ON HOLD}

Chapter Eight

Shailene POV:

As I am walking to the garden, something hard hits my head.
I see two pairs of feet. One in heels and one in sneakers.
My eyes shut.
-----
My eyes open and I touch my head. I look at my hand an there is a crimson red liquid on my hand.
Blood.
"Finally. Pregnant women can sleep." A voice says.
Derrick.
He crouches down low and touches my face.
"But I can take care of those babies." He says kissing my cheek.
"What do you want?" I ask.
I hear the clicking of heels and Ruth is in front on me.
"I can answer that." Ruth says.
"So?"
"I brought you here to give you a choice. It's do or die. Either you give me Theo or..."
"Or what?"
"Or I kill the precious babies."
"You can't do this to me. Why must you torment me every chance you get?" I ask getting emotional.
"Because. You have something I want."
"And what is that? Theo's love?"
"Yes."
"And you want to kill my babies just for that?"
"Yes. Keep up. I knew you were dumb but not that dumb."
I turn my head. Tears running down my face.
I look at Derrick and then Ruth.
Ruth smirks.
"I give you four days honey. Do? Or die?" She asks me.
I stay silent and look at the ground.
"Do or die." She says again and walks out.
Do or die.
