Chapter 32

Sylvie was never prepared for it. The words hit like a wave, if she had been standing, she probably would've collapsed to the floor.

Then it dawned on her. Her eyes widened as she looked down at her shirt.

No, no, no.

Terror filled her eyes now as she looked back at him. Oh, God. Her lips trembled.

For half a minute, silence was all that stayed between them. Sylvie was visibly shaken.

Kage got to his feet. "You're pregnant, he repeated, his voice even harder now.

His eyes got even darker. His grip on her became tight enough to hurt a little.

"I'm trying so hard to keep it cool, Sylvie. Don't tempt me," he gritted through clenched teeth. "I thought you lost the child? Explain this!

"I swear, if you don't let me go this instant, I'll call the cops on you." She warned.

"Then, fucking do it! Is that suppose to scare me!?"
