Who's my baby's DADDY?

Kate

Kelsea’s POV ~

Shane’s dominance fills the room and all of his men look at him with fear-filled eyes. And so did I. He was an all-new person with me and he was completely another person with his men which confused me. “Shane, all of this should stay in the basement, not here, especially not around Kelsea!”Helen warned him, with her glaring eyes and he turned to look at me. His cold eyes turned soft when met with mine. “Sorry maa, I didn’t see her there”, he instantly apologized to her and I literally saw how much power this woman held over them. “Out, all of you!”, he waved at his men and walked inside. He didn’t even bother to look at me or speak with me… Arrogant i***t, he thinks he can make me stay here just as he wishes? Then, he is wrong… I’m not his man who obeys all of his orders. I'm getting out of this place and proving him wrong...

After finishing some fresh veggies and toast Helen made for me, I smiled at her. “Thank you so much, I really appreciate you doing this for me…”, she smiled back. I left my plate on the basin and turned to look at her. “Dear, you need some rest, go up and take a nap in his room”, she said and I hesitantly looked at her. All I wanted to do now was go home to Skyla. I don't know how she is… I just hope she is fine… “Kelsea?”, she called me out and I sighed. Let me just ask her. “Um… I don’t think I can stay here anymore… I wanna get back to my home. It’s 7 already and I’m worried about my friend…”, I said and there was that angelic smile on her face. “Kelsea, I can understand what you’re going through but you should know one thing. You aren’t safe anywhere other than staying with us. Shane and Elijah are striving hard to find the people behind that attack. I don’t think it is good for you and your baby to go out alone after that rumor…”, she said and without any knowledge my hands rubbed my tummy. I know I shouldn’t be staying with Shane after everything I have been through but now I realize that my own feelings were not the only thing I should care about now. My priority is always my baby and I have to protect it no matter what. “Kelsea, just stay here until we sort things out, think about your baby… do you think it is fair to put it in danger because of our adult problems?”, her question made me think about my decision and I knew agreeing to stay for the sake of my baby isn’t that bad. I guess for a few days would be okay… I don’t want to put my baby in another situation like today. “Don’t worry dear, I promise, you and your baby will be safe here”, she assured and I know I have to put my issues with Shane aside for my baby's safety. "Okay… I'll stay for a few days… but I wanna speak with my friend Skyla. I didn't talk to her after that…", I said and she nodded. "Glad you agreed to this. I'll ask Kate to arrange a phone, you can call her or invite her here. And remember if you have any issues here with my son or any of the people here, tell me about it", her sweet care put a quick smile on my face. I nodded and walked upstairs to Shane's room.

In a few minutes, I heard a knock on the door. I opened the door and there stood a flawlessly beautiful girl, damn with the same silver eyes. Who is this beautiful woman? "Hi! You're Kelsea right?", she asked and got inside the room with a full excitement in her face. Her cheerful aura quickly lightened up my happy mood. "Yes, you are?", I asked and she looked at me with a wide smile. She was kinda little but she looked the same age as me, maybe a year or so younger than me. "I'm Kate Booker, younger sister of Shane and Elijah. You probably know those terrifying brothers of mine", she said sarcastically, waving her hands off and I giggled. "So you're the popular Kelsea… mm hmm… you look really beautiful", she started to observe me from all angles. "Um… what popular?", Confusion masked my face. "Haha, in a good way, si. Do you mind me calling you like that?", She asked and it reminded me of Skyla. God, I want to speak to her badly. "Not at all...", she smiled and handed me a phone. "Here it is, Maa asked me to give you", I sighed in relief. I got the phone and ran to the corner of the room. I called Skyla without wasting a moment. "Hello...", I deep sigh left my mouth, hearing her voice. "SKYLA??? THIS IS KELSEA!!! ARE YOU OKAY??", I asked. "KELSEA!!! THANK GOD YOU CALLED ME! ARE YOU OKAY? THAT MAN WHO CAME WITH YOU SAID YOU'RE GONNA STAY WITH THEM, REALLY?", from her trembling voice I literally felt how much scared she was . "Uh I'm fine Sky. About me staying here… I think I'll be staying here for the next few days until this rumor and other issues get sorted. Can you manage until then?", I asked and there was silence. Ugh.. I really miss her… "Can you handle being alone with those people there...", her words made me think for a minute. She is right… I agreed on the go, can I really handle alone… living a life among these dead serious people… "Um… I don't think there is any use of thinking about it now anyways… I think I have to handle anything that comes in the way", she hummed, for a few minutes, I poured everything on her. About Elijah, his mom and everything that happened after coming here. It was a f***** relief to pour out everything that weighs in my mind. I walked back to Kate, she was sitting there on the couch probably waiting for me. Ouch… did I take too long to finish… Did I piss her? Gosh, everything here literally scares me out. "Hey… I'm very sorry for taking so long...", I looked at her pretty nervously, expecting a rashing reply. But she smiled, that is not the reaction I expected from her… "No problem. Chats with friends can take forever. And don't be like this with me. Mom said you're cool and that was the first. She clearly likes and so do I. Call me Kate and no sorries please", she had this angelic smile on her face just like her mom. And till this moment, it is not so bad to live here as I thought. I think I can survive a few more days here. "Thanks for the phone, Kate", I handed her the phone but she shook her head. "No it's for you. You can keep it. Shane asked me to give you some fresh clothes. I don't think mine would fit so I took some of Maria's from the cupboard and left it here. You can use these and I'll be around, you can always call me if you wanna have fun. And I'm kinda in a rush now. I'll be back to have fun with the little one, okay?", she cheered happily and I smiled. "Thanks sweetheart. Sure, anytime. She's all yours", I said and she hugged me tight. Mm hmm… this isn't that bad after all. Not all here are killers like him after all… When she was about to walk out a question popped out of my mouth, "Kate, who's Maria?". I asked as I was really curious about this name. "Uh, she is Shane's….", she paused and we both turned to look at Shane who walked inside. "Kelsea, can I speak with you for a minute?"
