SLAVE OF THE HEART

The Diary Never Lies 5

25/05

I can't believe it.

What should i do?

Sir Baron knows i am pregnant, and he said that i either have to sleep with Luke, or i get rid of the baby.

I honestly do not know what i can do to keep it under wraps.

I love Luke but... I love Malik too.

I need help but i can't tell my parents. They will kill me.

Dear God, please help me.

*&*&*&*&

I went to Liam's to spend the day because i saw Vera and Luke looked busy doing the whole balancing act of farm kids and royalty.

I found out yesterday when i saw an old album with photos of my almost betrothed.

She was beautiful!

Really, she was. I now know where Vera gets her hair and height from. Luke has her eyes and personality.

Looking at her pictures made me almost cry. I met her once or twice. She was at a ball without her husband. Her parents wanted her to be a Duchess but she retained her Countess title instead.

Veronica and Luke are heirs to the family fortune.

I found Liam trying to help plant a flower garden for his step-mom. She's a sweetheart. She gave me some cookies and Liam and I caught up. He told me about liking Nina and how Luke almost caught him once.

It was the day Luke was looking for some crayfish by the lake. He saw Liam with someone. Her hair was covered.

I couldn't help laughing about it. I mean, it won't go anywhere, only a bastard will be born.

I wanted to stay there but i changed my mind eventually. I remembered my diary and came home.

I walked into the house to find Sir Baron on the phone.

He mentioned "Your Highness..." and "Vasheronne" in the same sentence.

He sounded so secretive.

When i dropped a key, i ran off before he saw me. Later today, he stopped by and asked when i dropped in. I said twelve-ish instead of ten-ish.

I have a feeling he's hiding something. He asked me if i was gonna have an abortion. I told him i didn't know.

Its getting harder for me to decide everyday. I know if i don't  do it soon, it'll be illegal.

What can i do?

Woke up to a few spots of blood and a quiet Vasheronne. She looked like she was avoiding any eye contact since the day Malik banged her head against the wall.

He said she deserved it, that she was dumb and needed to understand what he said, that slaves served their ladies and not the other way.

I heard him threaten her.
Should i be worried?

*&*&*&*

I finally got the courage to tell Malik the truth. However, when i was waiting, Veronica came.
