Who's my baby's DADDY?

Gunshots

Kelsea's POV~

Oh my… And the next seconds, gunshot sounds filled the air and I cupped my ears tight, hoping to not hear any of them. Every single man who threatened to kill me a few minutes back, was lying lifeless on the floor and our precious apartment was a heavy pool of blood. And I felt nauseated by its raw smell. I was terrified by all this which reminded me of that nightmare I used to have in my childhood. This gave me the same chills that my worst nightmare gave me for years. And I was pretty happy when I finally stopped getting those nightmares after feeling safe in Tristan's arms, but now… my worst fear of gun killing people is happening in front of my eyes. I stood there with my heart frozen and my body chilled. And to know that Shane is the one holding that gun, petrified me… "Di...did…y...you...just...kill...", I stutter in my trembling voice, looking at him with my bulged eyes. Shane, Elijah and some of his men stood there with their guns pointed at the dead ones all set to kill them again if they have to. My teary eyes just studied this powerful, dominant man in front of me. His shiny silver eyes are now so cold. Those eyes had the power to make me feel things I have never felt. But, now… those eyes are making me feel something I never wanted to feel in my life again, FEAR! The same fear I felt when Tristan shoved me his gun and threatened me. I agree that he did attract me with his simply charming gestures like his laugh, look, the way he calls me, everything. But this Shane was different… he was f***** different. This is not the one he showed me these many days. Oh no, this is not Shane… this is not the man who made my heart pause and skip a beat… This man is a monster… My breathing went wild and I was one step away from collapsing again. I felt dizzy and my eyes blurred, suddenly there was an arm which held me tight and close. "Kelsea!!!!", I heard him scream and the next second, I blacked out in his arms even though I tried hard not to… I was half conscious when I heard him, "Elijah, sort all and get back. I'm taking Kelsea with me", and everything went dark.

Shane's POV~

Today is the worst day in my life… I nearly faced all the feelings I hoped I wouldn't face anytime in this life. I felt fear and this was so new for me as it's the first I'm feeling this after that incident of my sister… Kelsea brought the same kind of scared feeling I was scared to feel for ages.

A few minutes back…

After a tiring session with those stupid paparazzi, I walked out of the meeting room to see Elijah and other men talking something serious. And right away, I sensed some issue. "What's with the discussion?", My dominating voice echoed through the lounge. "Brother, this letter...", Elijah handed me a piece of paper and those words in that scared the sh** out of me.

~ You pretty little girlfriend is all set to pay what you owe to me in terms of blood and life ~

I read those words for the millionth time and I didn't feel my heart alive. God!!!!! Kelsea???? No no no…. "Brother, I'm leaving for Kelsea. This might be a serious threat. We can't play with her safety…", his words scared me even more. The thought of getting her hurt BECAUSE OF ME, chewed myself. Sh** sh***, no, nothing happens to her, I won't let that happen. I always end up hurting the one I love the most and I don't wanna add Kelsea to that list… No matter what, I will keep her safe along with her BABY…

All of us hurried to her apartment as quickly as we could, passing on through the dense crowd of the paparazzi who chased me like crazy. I hope she is fine, please, be fine, Kelsea… I rushed through the hallway and then inside her apartment which was a damn mess. But then, what I saw in front of my eyes took my soul out of my body for a moment. Kelsea!!! I saw a lot of men pointing guns at Kelsea and another girl in the room. She clutched her eyes tight in fear and this mere second, I hated myself for having her go through this pain…

Out of the rage I felt at myself for involving her in this, I pulled my pistol out and signaled to my other men who understood what I meant. And the next shot, everyone fell to the floor, DEAD! That relief I felt after seeing her safe was worth everything… She collapsed in my arms pretty jerked by all this killing in front of her eyes and I'm the only fu**** one to be blamed for. I took her in her arms and my eyes looked at her pure angelic face, with no hint of evil. This woman changed everything and I know she is capable of this, the moment I saw her and this is the thing I feared, my dad feared… me falling in love AGAIN… and I think this time I felt really really hard...

Kelsea's POV ~

I opened my eyes, rubbing my throbbing head. "Ugh...", I got up from the same comfy bed I felt under me this morning and I knew where I was. I looked around and I saw a tall figure standing near me. I gently brushed my eyes, blinking for a few to get a clear sight of him. "Elijah...", the name left my mouth and the next moment he rushed to me with a worried look. "Honey, you okay? Do you want something? Are you alright? Shall I call the doctor?", he attacked me with his questions and I felt his voice trembling. "Why am I here again?", I asked as I hated being in Shane's room after everything I witnessed. "Uh, Kelsea, you passed out and Shane brought you here", that name brought a kind of mixed feeling in me. And the next few seconds were silent… "I wanna go home...", I said and a gasp escaped my mouth as the image of Shane killing a man played in my head repeatedly without any way of taking it down.

"I'm leaving...", I stood from the bed and started walking out without waiting for his reply when he pulled me close by my hand. "Wait, honey…", he said, tugging me close to his hard chest. "We are sorry, Kelsea… you had to go through it because of us...", I felt bad, hearing his worried tone. To be honest, I wasn't angry with any of them, all I want is some peace… "Elijah...I", putting my hands on his shoulder and grabbing him close to my chest, I tried to explain to him how awful I felt when someone walked in through the doors. "Elijah, when is this woman leaving?", A super strong man enquired Elijah with his masculine voice and I realized it was my cue to leave and so did I.

"Kelsea isn't going anywhere, she is in fact moving into our penthouse from today", Shane's alpha male voice echoed through the walls of the room and my wide eyes met his silver one. "What???????"
