His To Keep

chapter 10

The doctor led them into a private room which had an ultrasound machine,gas tanks,heart monitor,two chairs and a bed.

The driver lay Alexia onto the bed and stepped aside for the doctor who was now hovering over Alexia flushed face.

"Miss where does it hurt"?. The doctor ask with a soothing voice.

"My baby". It's all Alexia could have breath out as another pain lashed at her.

"Here is the sheet doctor. I filled out the information as much as I could". Asyin interrupts as she enters the room.

The doctor took the paper from aysin and quickly read it. The driver on the other hand excuses himself after informing Asyin that he will wait in the lobby if need be.

"Alright miss Carlton,I'm going to run a couple of test and use the ultrasound machine to monitor what's going on with the baby". The doctor explain.

As the doctor reassures Alexia, Asyin walks over to the bed holding onto Alexia hand in comfort.

Blood work and vitals was done on alexia. At that same time aysin pulls out her phone once more dialing hamuads number. On the third ring the Prince answers.

" Asyin where are you and where is miss Carlton? Am I not expecting her for dinner? ". Hamuad ask sounding disappointed.

" Miss Carlton is with me. Actually we're at the hospital ". Asyin tried to explain but was quickly interrupted by the prince.

"Hospital?. I'm on my way". hamuad says hastily as he hangs up his phone.

Sweat profusely run down Alexia face as she felt her stomach cramping up. After drawing blood from her left arm the doctor lifts up Alexia tank top and press a gel like substance onto her stomach.

Alexia was in full pain mode that she didn't feel the cold substance on her stomach. The probe was pressed against Alexia stomach. For what felt like eternity they began to hear a faint rhythmic noise coming from the machine.

The doctor looked at Alexia and calmly says"the sound you are hearing is the baby's heartbeat".

"What of the pain doctor.why is she in pain". Asyin ask sounding terrified at the moment.

The doctor did not answer but moved the probe at different angles on Alexia stomach to find the source of her discomfort.

Another pain gripped Alexia making her tighten her hold on Asyin hand. She felt something trying to reap out of her stomach.

Panicking now the doctor quickly got off the machine and pressed a red button which was at the corner of the bed.

"Whatever you are feeling miss Carlton try not to push as yet. I'm going to quickly examine you".

With fresh gloves the doctor and aysin help Alexia out of her pants and underwear. Asyin gasp in fear as she saw the blood. The doctor covered Alexia with a sheet as two other nurses walked in.

With her index and middle finger the doctor examines alexia. She looked at the two nurses with a sorrowful face.

"Miss Carlton your cervix is six centimetres dilated". The doctor says to Alexia with hurt reflected in her eyes.

"What..what does that mean doctor?" . With every painful breath Alexia takes.

"You are going into early labor. I'm so sorry". The doctor tries to explains as she quickly barks out orders to the other nurses.

While walking through familiar territory of the white halls of the hospital, the sight of patients,doctors and nurses greeted hamuad and his bodyguards. Remembering the last time he was here brought a chill to his now concerned heart.

"Your highness the doctor is seeing to the young lady as we speak". The driver announced with concern in his voice.

Hamuad nods in the driver direction then grab his phone. He was just about to call Asyin when she came rushing out of the room with a tear stricken face.

"Oh your highness it's horrible..horrible". Asyin explains as she runs over and buried her face in the out stretched arms of hamuad forgetting where she was.

"It will be alright hamamti (My dove) ". Hamuad says as he runs his hand over aysin head trying to calm her.

The night air was crisp with a slight chill as James drove The guys through The littered traffic. After a long hard week of work the guys decided to kick loose by heading to 'EDEN' a club in the East end side of town.

There was a long line of irresistible human flesh waiting to grace their presence inside the club as James and the guys walked over to the  bouncers at the entrance of the club.

On seeing Joshua, the bouncers allowed their frequent client and his guests to grace the inside walls of EDEN.

The place was packed up like a barrel stuffed with goodies for Christmas. sweat stricken bodies were grinding on the dance floor as the guys maneuvered  their way through. After dodging through the crowd they finally got to their desired destination.

The music was so loud that it was impossible to hear. Joshua led the guys to the green sofa at the dark edge of the club which held a glass table.

A blonde haired woman in a black knee length fitted strapless dress walk up to them holding a tray in her right hand.

" What can I get you stud muffins". She ask seductively.

Joshua look up at the woman and winks at her saying "I'm going to have a beer Gloria".

"Gin and tonic". Mark, Joshuas friend ask.

" Make mine a screw driver babe". Oliver, James friend ask with a wink in Glorias direction.

"What about you hot stuff"? Turning to James Gloria ask.

" Scotch, straight". James says as his main focus was on a red head woman with long hair seated at a table with two other women. Her back was turned to him.

After taking their orders Gloria walks off swaying her delicious booty in their presence.

Scanning the room Mark notice three hotties looking in their direction. He nods his head to them. In seeing this, the ladies all smiled and in turn raised their glasses in salute to mark.

"This is going to be a fun night". Mark explains excitedly.
