Chapter 247

She backed up until she hit the wall, her hands over her stomach.

Words escaped her and she stared at him, searching for words to answer him.

The fear in her eyes ripped his heart to pieces. A single tear rolled over her cheek and he groaned, reaching out to catch the tear on the tip if his finger.

“Why are you so scared of me baby? I would never hurt you, don’t you know that?”

His hand trembled as it rested on her clenched hands. He unclenched them and replaced it with his hands.

His gentle expression soften his features and she lost herself in his blue eyes.

His hands felt warm on her stomach and she looked down as they stroke her gently.

“How far along are you baby?”

“Three and a half months.” Her voice trembled and he had to lean forward to hear her answer.

She was nervous as hell and he knew he was to blame for it.

“Three and a half months? Are you sure baby? Aren’t you too big for three and a half months?”

She licked her lips , closed her eyes for a moment, opened them again and looked into his eyes, now so close to her she could feel his breath on her cheeks.

“I’m sure about that. I’m this big already because …because I’m carrying twins.”

A jolt shot through his body and his shock was written all over his face.

She even felt it on her stomach as his hands started shaking.

‘Twins baby? Holy God!”

He fell to his knees, rubbing his cheek against the bump holding the precious cargo.

Tears streamed down his face as regret ripped trough him like barbed wire.

His lips traced soft kisses all over her bump, his hands sliding around her back pulling her as close as possible. His tears soaked her shirt, she raked her hands through his hair relief washing over her.

“Oh baby how are you ever going to forgive me? When were you planning to tell me?”

“The night I found you in the bar. The night you showed me the pictures.”

He tilted his head backwards, sucking in his breath.

“The night I ravaged you like a mad man? I could have hurt the babies for God’s sake! I was so damn rough with you, fuck!”

His hands moved into her soft curls, pulling her closer to his awaiting lips, his eyes pleading at her.

“ I managed to turn your happiest day into a nightmare! Why do I always screw everything up for you?”

His lips crushed hers, tasting her heady scent on his lips, his tongue duelling with hers in a passionate battle. His arms rested on her hips, pulling her closer until he felt her bump pushing against his hips. His hands moved lower, gripping her ass and lifted her up so her stomach pushed against his.

Her fragile state overwhelmed him and protectiveness gripped at his insides. She had two lives growing inside her and if it takes him a whole lifetime he would do everything in his power to make up for all the wrong he caused..
