Chapter 46 (Vicky's POV)
I was standing outside the hospital, just waiting for Andrew to get his car.
My mind was still reeling from new information.
I will have two, not one, but two kids.
Now there was Beanie and Bean.
I had to give them both unique names before their birth.
For now they were my little beans and names suited them.
I was so deep in thoughts that I didn't even realize someone was coming closer to me.
But suddenly a hand covered my mouth.
I started to panic but then a well known voice almost sent me into another panic attack.
"I hoped you would get rid of that bastard inside your belly, but you had to disobey me once more. What will I do with you darling?"
My body started shaking and I shook my head no.
Come on Andrew, where are you?
"You will be a good girl and you will go with me or I will hurt your parents. We wouldn't want that now would we?"
Tears were running down my cheeks but I couldn't help it.
Having Nik so close to me again brought back all the bad memories, all the horror. I couldn't help it. It was the things my body remembered most when he was close.
But despite what my head was telling me, I couldn't let him hurt my parents, so I went against my head and nodded.
He moved his hand away from my mouth and I wanted ro scream but when I saw his murderous expression I knew theres no way I would be able to shout for help and get away unharmed.
So I just gave up on any hope of running away from him.
So instead of fighting I went with him.
Just when we were about to get into Nik's car I could see Andrew coming to the entrance.
His eyes found me right away.
Once he saw who was with me there was anger written all over his face.
I knew he would try to rescue me, but he didn't know what it was all at stake.
He started walking towards us and when I looked at Nik he had an evil gleam in his eyes and I didn't like it. Not even a little.
"I will kiss you and you won't fight it. We need a believable show for your darling boyfriend. If he suspects that I am forcing you to come with me, your baby and your parents will be in danger, are we clear!?"
My heart broke at the thought of betraying Andrew in such a way.
But I had no other option.
So I nodded my head once more.
I just had to believe Andrew would look past his hurt and won't give up on me.
He had to find me.
Suddenly Nik's lips were on mine and it brought back even more memories.
All the scars on and inside my body.
The kiss was over fast thank God but it still lasted way too long in my opinion.
I would be happiest if it didn't happen at all.
Once Nik moved away from me and opened the passengers doors for me I took one last chance to look at Andrew.
I begged him with my eyes to not believe the show he saw play out in front of his eyes.
But when I looked at him, all there was left in his eyes was hurt and betrayal.
I could see he believed every second of the show Nik played for him.
I wanted to go to him and tell him everything, but I had to think about my babies and my parents first.
Once inside the car, Nik closed my door and went around the hood to get in on the driver's side.
I chose the only chance I would get and mouthed the last words to Andrew.
I just hoped he would understand them and believe them.
Nik drove away, but I just kept repeating my last words meant for Andrew inside my head.
I love you.
But somehow I just wished he would find me.
I needed to tell him those words in person.
He needed to hear them not read them from my lips.
But most of all I tried really hard to focus on my situation.
It was possible that Andrew would think and believe I really betrayed him and went with Nik willingly.
I hoped not, but knew it was one of the possibilities.
I recognized our surroundings but it didn't help one bit.
I knew we were headed in the direction of Nick's cottage.
I knew where it was but I also knew there's no way I could escape without any help.
We reached our destination and unfortunately I was right.
Once inside I turned to Nik and demanded that he take me to see my parents but he started laughing in my face. I just stood there in shock.
"You think I really have them? Damn Vicky but you are dumber than I thought. Your parents are still on their journey around the world. But I managed to get one of their postcards before it reached your address. And it gave me an idea. You thought they were coming home one of these days but they wrote that something came up and they won't be home until 2 weeks from today. But I remembered their stupid habits about your mothers ring and that stupid bracelet you gave to your father. And I made precise copies. You must admit they were good."
My world started spinning at his words.
My parents were never in any danger.
But now, I willingly put both of my babies in danger.
It was all too much for me, and next thing I knew, darkness started to pull me down. And I went willingly.
