Chasing The Rejected

“What are we going to do about Liam’s mother? Luca is currently holding her Delilah murmured and I glanced down at Clara who was sleeping soundly in my arms. I had originally brought Liam’s mother over so that she could kneel before Clara and beg for mercy but Clara was in such a vulnerable state right now and it wasn’t something she needed now.

“Tell Luca to keep her down in the dungeons with no food or water. When Clara is better, we’ll go see her” I murmured and Delilah nodded before walking out of the room and I was finally alone with Clara.

My mother had left with Aunt Amelia as soon as Clara had fallen asleep and those two had immediately hit it off.

Clara groaned slightly as she wiggled her body before she settled down and I just stared at her, engraving her features in my head. She was breathtaking and she was all mine.

I placed a kiss on the tip of her nose before adjusting myself so I was in a comfortable position. After a while, I fell asleep as well and was only awoken by the sound of something falling

I opened my eyes slowly and frowned when I noticed Clara wasn’t in my arms, How had she moved and I hadn’t noticed? I must have been very tired.

I turned towards the source of the noise and saw Clara standing by the mirror with a broken vase in front of her. What shocked me wasn’t the fact that she had broken the case but the fact that she had a pillow in her stomach, mimicking a pregnancy bump.

“I would have looked so good with a bump, don’t you think?” She questioned softly as she kept staring at herself in the mirror, not even minding the broken vase in front of her feet

“Don’t move baby, you’ll hurt yourself” i murmured as I immediately jumped up and ran towards her.

I picked her up and carried her away from the broken glass then set her down in the bed before ringing for the nurses.

“What happened? Did you smash the vase on the ground?” I questioned softly as i searched her body for any injuries. I sighed when I saw some cuts on her legs.

“It fell, I didn’t smash it” She murmured softly and I sighed.,

“You hurt yourself” I murmured at the same time the nurses walked in. I showed them the broken vase and asked for a first aid kit.

“I’m okay, they don’t hurt” She murmured and I tilted my head at her.

“I don’t care if they don’t care, I care that you’re injured” I murmured then glanced down at the pillow protruding from her stomach with a frown.
