His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Christian dropped the pen from his hands and froze for a second before he looked up from his desk. I triface, but it showed no expression. Not a single frown, nothing.

“Yes, I’ve been pregnant for three months now and I thought you should at least know the truth. I don’t or your money, I don’t even need you to be there for the baby. But I just want you to know that I’m pregI’m keeping the bab-“

The moment a sigh left his mouth I stopped with my sentence and look at his clenched fist. I couldn’t heof fear and waited to see his reaction. “Three months?”.

“For how long have you known?” He asked in a calm but irritated tone. I knew he had a temper and I didprovoke him so, I was planning on giving him the truth he deserved. “Just a week.”

“As I told you, I’m perfectly fine on my own and I don’t need—no I don’t want you in my life and I’m noof that, but now you know,” I lied to his face.

Are you insane, what the fuck is wrong without, while I flinched and looked down at my stomach.

“I-I didn’t think you were exactly waiting for a baby and…I’m sorry.” I apologized. Maybe Marc was right,misjudged him. Yes, his reaction scared me but so far it seemed like he was okay with this pregnancy.

“I’m going to be a dad?” He asked once again while I quickly nodded my head. I covered my stomach wwas afraid of his next move, but all he took was a deep breath.

“How are you, how is the baby, have you seen a doctor?” He asked as he showed a hint of worry on his fhelp but smile at his sudden change of behavior which was completely unexpected. I had prepared mysebut here he was, asking me about how I was doing.
