Claimed by Him

Chapter 21

Romans POV

Did he hear the nurse right? Pregnant. Amanda is pregnant. His woman is pregnant. Carrying his child. He closed his eyes for a moment. The memories came flooding in. His mother.

He sat in her lap as she hummed a beautiful tune. She smiled down at him. He was only four. He looked up at his mother and smiled widely and then poked her big belly. She was pregnant.

"Mommy can you play now?"

He said as he bounced on her lap. She laughed.

"Okay okay, but you have to be quiet"

She said as she smiled and held him tighter to him. He snuggled in his mother's embrace. She played a beautiful tune, his favorite one. He always found it so fascinating how her fingers fluently moved over the keys. She hummed as she played. Roman looked up at her and admired his mother's beauty. Her beautiful blue eyes and long beautiful black hair. She had a beautiful smile.  Everything about her was beautiful. Even with her big belly.

"You're so pretty mommy"

Roman said. His mother stopped playing and gave him lots of kisses. He giggled as she kissed him.

"I love you my sweet boy"

She said,

"I love you too mommy"

He said.

Amanda's POV

She must have been dreaming. Did she hear the nurse right? Pregnant?

"Can you repeat that?"

She said as her voice cracked. She ignored Roman, Viktor and Sevastyan. Right now all she could think about was what the nurse was telling her.

"You are pregnant. It seems about 4 weeks"

Amanda stared at the nurse. She really was pregnant. Oh god. Nothing could have prepared her for this moment. A child with Roman. Could she even bring a child into this world, in his world? And she was now 4 weeks pregnant.

It all made sense. For the past few weeks she had been feeling nauseous. She felt weaker, but it would come and go, so she didn't think much of it, she thought it could have been if she was overworking. The vomiting became worse and worse, but she never told anyone. She didn't want to worry them on her own, they were already dealing with James and that was a huge problem.

Her head hurt so much. In the bakery she felt as if she couldn't breath when she went in the back to bring the rest of the bakes that she had left over and before she knew it she fainted. She must have hit her head really hard against something that it hurt that bad. Now she knows that it was all because she was pregnant. Her baby, her first child. A child with Roman. What would her life be like now?

She placed her hand on her stomach. She would protect her baby with her life. She would never let any harm come to her baby.

"She will need to rest a lot. Stay hydrated at all times, it's also very handy take prenatal vitamins, i will make a list for you"

The nurse informed them, and she then left the room. It was pure silence. Amanda turned her head to look at Roman and he was staring her dead in the eyes. She didn't know what was going through his head. What if he didnt want a child, would he leave her? Their relationship wasn't fully where she wanted it to be, but she was falling day by day harder for him. She trusted him with everything, yet she couldn't fully give her heart.

"Roman..I..."

What could she say now? She didn't even know where to begin.

"Its okay moya dusha, don't think too much about it and rest"
