Who's my baby's DADDY?

Will never hurt

Kelsea's POV ~

"What???????", I gasped in shock. "Look, baby girl, we'll discuss this later, now get back to bed and rest", that arrogant i***t had the audacity to tell me that after what he did to me. He still dared to call me that, after he nearly killed me? "Stop ordering me, this is not the office!", I roared back like a fearless tiger, crossing my arms over my chest. He, Elijah, and their dad gasped in surprise and then I realized a fatal truth. F***! Did I just yell back at these most powerful men? I’m so dead… I gulped, letting out a deep sigh at the terrifying thought. To be honest, here, I know my words are gonna get me in trouble but I can't help it. I didn't know where I got this sudden willpower to speak back against these dangerous men who possess the capability to kill people in just a matter of seconds. All I know was he doesn't get to order me the way he does with others. Not after today… "Kelsea, please just wait a moment, we can explain…", Elijah's soft tone as usual got me calm and I felt a strong pair of eyes on me. I turned to see their dad, trying to kill me with his eyes and I gulped the lump of fear from my throat. Okay, I'm dead… "Son, a word", he signaled Shane to come out and I can literally sense the hatred he felt for me. When both of them left the room, Elijah walked to me. We sat on the couch nearby. "Honey, I'm sor...", I shoved my hand to stop him as a gasp escaped my mouth. The image of Shane and Elijah killing them, ran a chill fear in my blood. My eyes filled as I tried to look away from him. "I really don't wanna speak with anyone right now, sir… please leave me alone…", I pleaded with him and tears fell down my cheeks. That was it. I couldn't control it anymore. I just burst into tears, cupping my face with my palms. "Please, Kelsea… don't call me that and don't be like this… it hurts me to see you like this", wrapping his arms around me, he hugged me tight to him. Even Though he was also the one who killed those… The warmth he gave me was all I needed now. I should be pushing him away from me but I was not able to… Losing myself in his comforting chest, I snuggled in his shirt. "Why does it have to me always…", words left my mouth, between my terrible sobbing. "Hey, relax… just relax… I know this is hard for you but just know we won't let anything happen to you", he held me in his arms, as he moved away from my messy hair from my smudged mascara. His touch, his words, everything about him was soothing. I cried my heart out in his chest... And, after all this time in my life… I finally had this feeling to open up to someone... "Yo...you and Sh...Shan...Shane killed them… the other day… he.. he killed that man…", I said without being able to control my tears. Cupping my face in his big strong arms, he pulled me close, wiping my continued tears. "Listen, honey… I know this is new and hard for you. But understand this, we killed the bad men which is not wrong. They were trying to hurt you, remember? And, just know, me and Shane, both will never ever hurt you. I promise…", his soft voice caught me again and I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him tightly. I inhaled his strong sandalwood smell and the next moment I was lost in them. "Look, I'm always there for you if you need someone to speak…  okay, honey?", he said and I nodded, staying still hugging him for god knows how long.

After 3-4 hours or so, I woke up from the couch, I might've probably fallen asleep on Elijah. God… It felt really good to be with him and I finally feel like I have got another person with whom I can speak freely. I remember him hugging tight in my arms and telling him everything I went through in my childhood as an orphan. He was a pretty good listener and I didn't know he could be this sweet and kind, despite the fact that he kills people like Shane too. Ugh… I don't know when this thing of them killing people will leave my fu***** mind! I tied my hair into a bun and walked out of Shane's room to find Shane or Elijah so I could just leave home already. I walked around to find the lounge empty, the kitchen was empty too and then I remembered my hungry stomach. Uh.. I’m starving… sorry my baby… I’m putting you to starve along with me… I’m a bad mother right… I should get back home… Oh, God!!!! Skyla!!??? I completely forgot about her. What happened to her??? Didn't they bring her here? Immediately my mind went a few hours back. Oh no, did they just leave her there? When my mind was off with thoughts, I felt a pair of hands on me. "NO!!! DON'T KILL ME!", I screamed in fear as I was really horrified to be around these people. I turned to look at the same woman who walked into Shane's office that day. "Relax dear, calm down… you're gonna be fine...", Shane's mom, Helen rubbed my back to calm me down but my breathing was still heavy. God, I feel like I'm living on a whole new planet now… "Come, dear, sit down", we both sat on the couch in the lounge and I gulped the glass of water she gave me. I looked at her nervously as the thing I’m going through now was completely new to me. I have never been to such a big penthouse or I have never been with so many people around me. No parents, siblings, men for work, etc… I was always alone and now meeting with these many people, not normal ones, dangerous people made me nervous. I don’t think she is gonna be happy with me standing in her kitchen. Is she gonna ask Shane to kill me… after getting to know who they really are, even small things scare the crap out of me… I never wanted to get myself into such things before but somewhere in the corner of my heart, I liked the power Shane had over people, he can kill if he wants, he has men to obey him, he has a super hot brother Elijah who bows to his commands, lavish life and tons of money. What a great life… I was carried away by my thoughts about Shane and his lifestyle but then, I felt a hand on my shoulder. I hopped back to where I was and I felt my whole body tremble in nervousness. 

“Kelsea?”, I heard her voice and I gulped. "Uh… sorry, Ma’am… I didn’t mean to intrude in your kitchen. I was just looking for Shane or Elijah…”, I paused and she looked at me surprised. Oh sh**!! I just went by their name… “Um.. sir Shane and his brother sir Elijah…”, I corrected my words and she giggled. “Chill out dear, I don’t bite. Loosen up a bit, why are you nervous and scared of me? Am I looking like an evil witch or something?”, her sweet honey voice took away my fear of her. “Uh… ma’am…”, I sighed, relaxing my body. “Call me Helen, what’s with the formalities?”, she said all sweet and calm. Her words now really creeped me out. Is she being serious? Nah, she is definitely messing with me. I still remember how Skyla told me these riches were. They start it nice and then bully us with their power… “I’m sorry, ma’am. I… I didn’t do anything wrong… please let me go… don’t kill me…”, I almost pleaded in front of her with my teary eyes and again the sense of fear wrapped me. This feeling confused me like hell. One moment, I feel so strong enough to speak back to Shane, and the next moment I’m so weak that all I could do was cry. A tiny drop of tear fell down from my eyes as now I really felt the fear for my life and felt the urge to go home in one piece… “Please…”, I pleaded and to my fu**** surprise, she pulled me in her arms and gave me a gentle hug. “Relax, dear. I can understand how you feel now. This is exactly how I felt when I married Shane’s father and got to know about his true identity. Don’t be so hard on yourself. Just relax”, she rubbed my back and my breathing calmed down. Her arms felt home… and I felt a warmth the child would get from a mother… The care she showed me was enough to calm my whole self down in seconds. She pulled me back with a smile on her face and it gave me an angelic vibe. Not all people here are evil… some are pure too. “Thank you so much, ma’am…”, I smiled after so being all terrified for the past few hours. “Listen, Kelsea, these men here never change and so is my son, but just know one thing. Shane, Elijah, me, my husband, and every other man of ours, would never and ever think about hurting you… Especially, my sons, I can see how much they care about you…”, she said with an assuring smile just like her son did a few hours back. Care about me? Really…? A part of me still didn’t trust Elijah’s words, but now, I found myself trusting her… Her words gave me that inner peace I was searching for for many years… I felt safe, I’m safe… Yes, I’m…

“Than…thank you so much, Ma’am…”, I truly smiled this time and she nodded. “Call me Helen dear, I don’t like that Ma’am from you”, she said and I nodded. And then, her eyes dropped to my tummy. Whoa, she knew it too? “How is the little one doing there?”, she asked, looking at me for my permission to place her hand in there. I nodded and she smiled wide, as she tried to feel my little one in there. “Oh, I’m so in love with your baby there!!!”, she squealed in excitement and for the first time in my entire life, this moment… I didn’t feel alone and I was really happy about it. “Come, I have a lot to tell you. But first, you need to eat and so is my favorite little one”, she grabbed me by her arms and I nodded, getting up from the couch. 

“I WANT HIM RIGHT NOW, BRING HIM ALIVE. I’LL SHOW HIM WHAT HELL FEELS LIKE!!!!!”, suddenly, there was a loud yelling sound, and we both turned in its direction. There he stood, Shane… roaring at one of his men, like a hunting tiger….
