Gang Leader's Kid (#1) ✔

-9-

No tears fell from my eyes like I expected, only an expression of pain and rejection covered my face. The front door shut with a click as I closed it, I proceeded to take off my coat then put my purse on the table that was near the door and also placed my car keys on there too. Before I went to walk upstairs, I locked the door and made sure it was locked this time so no one could come in then finally walked upstairs or more like waddled.

I took off my clothes with just leaving my panties and bra on, I turned to face my mirror and stared at my stomach, he moved inside me and it showed his movements. He stopped when I placed my hand over where he was moving, I saw water drop onto my belly and realised that it was my tears that fell upon my unborn baby, I wiped them away furiously not wanting anymore to fall.

I wouldn't cry over someone who chose to protect my baby by choosing to not be in his life, I took a deep breath before walking to my closet and putting on and oversized t-shirt. Feeling hungry once again, I walked downstairs to retrieve my M&M's when I heard the phone ring so I turned back around to answer it.

'Hello?' I asked through the phone as I walked into the kitchen to get my M&M's that were left over from the lunch I had with Tristan, maybe they might taste better now rather than the lunch where I lost my appetite.

'So you decide to speak to me now?' I heard Miles' ask making me freeze in my steps but I regained composure when he continued to talk. 'A visit to Tristan's helped then?'

'How'd you know I went to visit him?' I didn't think that I was being followed but then again these people were in gangs so news about people's whereabouts could be found by them which was good but it was also something that you had to fear.

'One of the guys called me up and said, guessing everything is alright now?' Far from alright. 'All he said wa-' My sentence got cut short when my head got bashed onto the wall and suddenly my airway was blocked, I was being strangled. My eyes searched for anything to attack the person with but my heart plummeted when I found nothing so it took all my courage to elbow the attacker's stomach making the person let go of me. I didn't spend another minute to see who it was, I ran feeling so dizzy as blood rushed to my head I could also feel a bruise forming on my neck.

I grabbed onto walls as I tried to reach the front door but I got pulled back and I was now pinned to the wall, facing my intruder. I felt my eyes droop and my hands instantly grabbed onto my stomach; I didn't want to lose my baby, I couldn't. I blinked my eyes a couple times before facing my intruder who had a black cloth around his face so the only thing I could see was his eyes and lips, I looked around and saw my house completely trashed. Tears sprang to my eyes as I felt my top being lifted up, I was being grabbed in places I didn't want to be grabbed. I wanted this to go away, I didn't want this, I need help, I want my baby to live, I don't want to die, I prayed and prayed hoping someone heard the commotion here but no one came.

I screamed as loud as I could when I felt him trying to rip away my underwear making him backhand me. That wouldn't stop me from screaming, his hand covered my mouth muffling my screams for help, and I kept trying to get out of his grasp which earned me a punch to the face. He moved closer to me, gripping my wrists tighter I was sure that he was going to break them, I gasped when he was pushing against my stomach fuck no, please now.

'No, please.' I gasped, he only chuckled and then push his lips onto mine which I bit into as soon as our lips touched. He growled and cursed under his breath then flung me away from him, I hit my bump on the wall then fell to the floor. The tears were silent, the pain was too much but my body felt numb, the blood poured out from my body, the only thing I was hearing was the noise of things getting trashed all over my house then after a while the noise stopped. The guy came back and his face hovered over mine, sending me a smirk

'This is a message to Tristan.' Then before I could realise it happening, my eyes drooped down and the last things I heard were my brother's shout. He was now hovering above me, shouting my name but they were inaudible...then my eyes closed.

Turning my head to the side I looked at the monitors beeping over my head and on the sides, I was aware of my surroundings even with the dull pain in my head which had felt like a hammer was bashing my head but now it just felt like a thrumming through my ears. I moved my fingers a little then my hand and a whimper escaped my mouth alerting others that were in the room; my wrists were bruises and was a nasty purple colour making me afraid of what the rest of me looked like. I gasped as my hands flew to my belly and a sigh of relief escaped from my mouth as I felt the 7 month bulge still there.

'Ki?' Miles' concerned voice made me turn half my attention to him. His face broke my heart in two, it looked as if he hadn't slept either that or he had cried because of the dark circles and the bloodshot that showed in his eyes. Clothes ruffled, fists red and asking for attention, hair messed up and he himself didn't look strong anymore. I tried to answer him but the pain and dryness in my throat needed water, water was given to me and as I took it, my hand brushed against the other person's sending a whole load of shivers through me. I looked up to see Tristan staring down at me with the same cold eyes as he always has done

'Thanks.' I said softly after taking the huge gulp of water then placing it by my bedside table with the help from Miles. 'How's my baby?' Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Tristan flinch from my words but I didn't care. His idea of my "safety" almost killed my child and me.

'He is fine but some tests are running. Kihanna, you...fuck! I should have been there! I should have got there quicker, you could have died!' Miles screamed in frustration and I went out to reach for him but he had gone out the door of my hospital room and Leah and Layla had come in with Blake.

'You bitch! Don't scare me like that! Trust me, this guy is going to die when I fucking get my hands on him!' Layla said with an angry face, but came to me anyway and gave me a soft hug being extra careful. Leah had tears in her eyes and her eyes kept flickering to my stomach but she didn't make a move, Blake talked for her instead. I always knew that Leah wasn't good with situations like these, she was like an adorable puppy.

'How you doin'?' I laughed at Blake's way of doing Joey's accent from Friends. He smiled before sitting on my bed, 'I'm feeling alright, better than alright knowing this little one is okay.' I said, wincing slightly as I continued to rub my stomach. All their eyes flickered to Tristan who leaned on the wall staring at the rest of us with his cold heartless eyes.

'We'll give you some time alone.' Layla said, noticing the awkward tension running through the air from Tristan, even if he wasn't doing anything but just standing there casually. Leah walked over to me and kissed my forehead before walking out with Blake and Layla leaving me and Tristan here by ourselves and for once, I wasn't scared about what we were going to talk about.

'You could have died.' He stated, really? That hadn't occurred to me what so ever. 'Why would you care?' I said, tired of everything like I had been since I went to find Tristan. Our eyes locked and the tension in the room got thicker to the point where a knife couldn't even slice through it even it tried but hey, that was Tristan and I.

'I give a shit because that's my child you're carrying and it's you that got targeted. You couldn't have fucking checked who was in the house before you started walking around half naked?!' Tristan growled as he was face to face with me now. This was my fault then wasn't it? If I hadn't tried to find him then I wouldn't be battered and bruised right now would I?

'Just get out Tristan.' I said, not wanting to deal with anything anymore. All I wanted to do was sleep but that couldn't done because of what came out of Tristan's mouth. 'I would but you might get attacked again, plus you are living with me now.' His words stilled me instantly. I was never going to catch a break was I baby boy?
