Chapter 72: Chapter 72

I couldn’t think straight, dad gave me the video footage where Gruvv was killing someone. He beat the person to a standstill in the video, I also saw how George and Shin put the man’s body into a large barrel and sealed it.

It looks terrible.

But, shouldn’t I already know? What else is there to doubt and fear?

He’s a mobster, of course he kills people. What am I really thinking now? Is it true that all my doubts are just because I saw that Gruvv killed someone else?

Dad took me to a big house, he blindfolded me the whole way. He said he couldn’t trust me. Oh of course, I didn’t either trusting father. All my life, I’ve only been used as a means of something that make him get a lot of money, I’ve only been promised false promises.

This time, I want to be free. I want to leave dad, I don’t want to be with him.

"Promise me not to touch the Dhurudatta family." I said that to dad after watching the video where Gruvv killed someone, dad squinted his eyes and his wide smile showed his untidy and crusty teeth.

"Wow, after seeing him kill others you’re not even scared? You’ve changed Shiloh."

"This time I don’t want false promises."

Dad’s smile disappeared when I said that, "Who was do that to you? Me? You’re the one who always makes messes and breaks promises, remember what dad said since you were a kid? Bad kids don’t get rewards. And you always been a bad kid for me. For us."

I looked out of the window, my heart racing, this time I was afraid that my father would find out that I am pregnant.

"What do you want, Shiloh?" Dad asked then before he covered my eyes with a cloth. "I want you to set me free, dad. After what I’m going through now, please let me go. Let me go alone."

Dad nodded and then closed my eyes, I knew that he probably keeping his promise is only one percent. But maybe this is my chance to get away from Gruvv.

After my pregnancy, I thought about many things. When Maeve come to me and talk about Seth, it’s made me think that I wasn’t the only one who had been suffered all this time, without realizing that what I was doing was bringing others into distress.

What I did to my own son, Seth.

What did I do to Gruvv that he had to kill Madam Rose and leave the workplace he liked the most, underground, and make him think about going to the headquarters.

I overheard Gruvv and Sage’s conversation when we finished eating together. The father and son were in the smoking room.

"You should really think about my offer to transfer you to the headquarters as soon as possible." Sage said while smoking his cigarette, not only was Gruvv there, but Cross and Joshua were also enjoying their cigarettes. Of course Joshua with his chocobar.

Gruvv, who was sitting not far from them, was drinking cola, and he didn’t smoke. He tried to quit smoking after he found out I was pregnant.

"I have to catch Gil before he do something stupid again."

Joshua ate his chocolate bar, "But you like underground."

"It will be very dangerous for Gruvv if he continues to run the business underground. Underground business is not for members who already have families, subordinates who intend to establish households are all transferred to the branch office. and to the main office. It’ll more give the family big risk." Cross responded to Joshua’s words.

The conversation stay in my head. For Gruvv to leave the underground and move to the headquarters must have been such a hard choice, and he had to do it because of me and this baby. I don’t want to be a trouble for him.

I was inside the large room that my father had prepared for me, an unfamiliar room with a scent I didn’t recognize. When I got out of the car, I didn’t recognize the atmosphere in this house. Some people greeted father as if he were their boss.

"Stay here, I’ll give you three meals and wait for my next instruction."

I sat on the bed, ever since I got in the car I felt so nauseous and my stomach hurt. I walked to the door and locked it from the inside, I was afraid father would find me while I was vomiting or in pain in this room.

My hand turned the key, "Ah, what am I doing here..." I muttered, resting my head against the door. My chest ached with guilt. Do I really have to do this? Isn’t there anything else I can do for Gruvv?

"He must be worried." I muttered.

But I left a message on the bed so he wouldn’t look for me, I deleted the messages and calls from dad from my phone. I didn’t leave any trace.

THROB...

My stomach hurting again, I hugged the jacket I was wearing. This is Gruvv’s jacket.

His pheromone is still lingering, I’m sure my baby will be fine even without Gruvv’s pheromone scent, right? This jacket with Gruvv’s pheromone smell is enough, right?

I held my stomach that felt stabbing and painful, I went to the room and vomiting, throw up everything what was in my stomach. My head hurt. I was breathing heavily.

No, I have to endure it. Father must not know about my pregnancy.

I endured the pain until my sweat poured out, it was so painful. I became much more agitated than before, the doctor told me this but I didn’t know it would happen much heavier than I expected.

Did Mateo come to my room to give me his pheromones or was it a natural pregnancy as opposed to IVF?

"Shiloh?" The knock on the door startled me, I wiped off my sweat. Acting like I was fine.

I opened the door and dad looked at me suspiciously. "Why did you lock the door?"

I shook my head, I really wanted to answer his question but the pain in my stomach made my mind blank, I was much more focused on this pain right now than what he was telling me.

I had to endure it.

"Shiloh, are you sick?"

Father asked at the door, looking at me, waiting for an answer. My head hurt, I was still trying to hold everything in until I finally fell to the floor. My chest felt tight and I felt the great pain in my stomach. Breathing heavily, I closed my eyes.

Dad squatted in front of me, he smiled broadly. "Hey, dumbass, you think I don’t know?"

Damn it.

I’m sure father knows about this, he wouldn’t have come to me just to set me free. He couldn’t have come just to tell me that Gruvv killing people and that he took me out of Madam Rose’s brothel because he wanted to sell me to someone else. He must have planned this and I foolishly volunteered to come see him, launching all the scoundrel plans he had prepared.

He had a man take me to bed, I was too weak to do something, the pain in my stomach was so painful that I no longer think of escaping.

A man came up to dad carrying a tray that I didn’t know what it was. Father smiled broadly, he looked at me again.

"Shiloh, I know you’re stupid, but do you think I brought you here because I’m really going to give you your freedom?" Dad sat beside me, his sickening smile on his face right in front of me.

"Hey, you Alpha’ss family cost me billions. He got Madam Rose’s drugs factory was taken by the government and closed permanently, do you know how much it cost me to build it all? Gruvv let the Omegas who I’ve taken good care of being taken by the government too, that bastard doesn’t know how much I lost he has caused to me!" Father babbled as he looked at me, his big hand right under my chin, he pressed my cheek firmly.

"I wouldn’t have gotten anything if you hadn’t been this stupid, I go to any lengths and pay top money to get into your lover’ residence. Oh, he’s too obsessive. Do you like obsessive men, Shiloh?"

The pheromone smell made my nausea worse.

"Ah, yeah sorry, I forgot that the smell of another Alpha’s pheromones is painful for your baby huh? Then let me speed up your baby’s journey, okay?"

My eyes rounded at that, one of the men held my hand tightly, my father took an injection from the tray held by one of the men in front of him. I struggled, begging him to let me go.

"Shiloh, Shiloh, this won’t hurt, I promise. Go to sleep, like before, like it best when Shiloh is asleep, quiet, not making a sound."

When the needle entered my body through the skin, everything felt dark, black.
