Padgett Knight

I woke up with the feeling of warmth and caress on my stomach. I woke up alarmed for any danger to my baby, but it all faded away the moment my eyes met with the icy blue one's.

"Morning." He said as he leaned in to kiss me.

"Morning." I replied between the kiss.

He pulled me closer by my waist. His hand went up and down my back while mine just got in his hair. I don't know what it was but I like the feeling of caressing his head with my fingers buried in his perfect hair.

"Happy Birthday, Sebestian." I said and kissed him as I remembered the day before. His movements stopped for a moment while he seemed suprised for a second.

"Thank you, my love." He finally said smiling faintly, resuming his movements.

"How do you celebrate your birthday?" I asked, predicting an answer which consisted a mention of the grand party with his business associates, and the mafia ties.

"I don't."

I stopped my movements and looked at him with a frown.

"I usually overwork at the company." He reasoned and I remembered, his mother died on his 10th birthday. I sighed pulling his face in the crook of my neck. I wrapped both of my hands around his neck, pulling him in a much needed hug.

"Everything is going to be just fine." I said, not wanting for him to imagine that pain ever again.

"It already is....... I have you and our baby." He said pulling his face out of my neck and pecking my lips. I smiled and nodded. I liked seeing him like this, opening up to me, sharing things with me, not worrying if I was going to leave him.

"About the baby.... what do you think others will think?" I asked concerned while Sebestian clearly understood who others were. His eyes were cold and murderous just by that thought.

"I'll keep both of you safe, you don't need to worry. You have me." He said and I smiled.

"And you have us."

"I know." He said and kissed me.

"How will you deal with them?" I asked genuinely curious.

"I'll see." He said and I sighed knowing exactly what it meant. I still didn't fancy the idea of him killing and that's what it clearly indicated.

"You have to understand, Padgett. I can't change myself." He said cupping my face while I nodded lacing his fingers with mine, which were above my cheek.

"I don't want you to change, Sebestian. I just want you to bring out the softer side of you, which I surely know you have."

It was true, I accepted him just as he was, but I believed that it was better for him to have his softer side out, which he showed to me.

"Do you think we should... you know tell father?" I asked hesitantly. It would be a lie if I said that I didn't even had an ounce of fear of him. My fear didn't disappear but definitely became low, very low.

I thought telling father was just fine, who knows he may change after hearing the arrival of a grandchild. Also I didn't want my child to grow uo without any grandparent. I wanted my child to experience all the love this world could offer.

"No." He replied, while I tried to convince him.

"I'm not letting him close to you or to our child. I don't trust that man, Padgett. He was the one who used to hurt you." I was at first confused if how he knew, I did tell him, but it was just once, how was he certain of him hurting me numerous times. I shrugged that thought and agreed.

"I know you want the child to have a grandparent, but Padgett I don't think that involving your father is a great decision." He said while I nodded looking down at my stomach as my hand caressed it.

Anything for my child's safety.

"The baby will have the love of his parents and a great uncle." He said kissing my jaw. While I nodded.

"Bradley would make a good uncle." I said hoping I was right.

"I'm not having that bastard anywhere near my child. I was actually talking about Alan." He said making me laugh.

I liked the morning like this, filled with laughter and his love for me. Especially a morning without me throwing up.

_____________________

We were having breakfast while I was seated on Sebestian's lap. The door to the dining hall opened and Bradley and Alan came, Alan as always was calm but Bradley was as hyper and excited as he always is. I was amzed by how well these people can bury such a traumatic and painful past behind this cheerful and worry free facade.

"We bought you a gift." Bradley said as he and Alan sat down on the table while I tried to get up, excited for a new gift. Tried. I was held back by Sebestian as he placed his hand on my belly.

"Finish your breakfast first." He replied to my questioning gaze.

"I already had enough." I said pointing at the left over food in my plate because he filled it with a huge amount of food compared to what I consume.

"Yeah, enough but not the whole thing." He replied bringing a piece of fruit to my mouth. I ate it while he kissed my forehead and continued to feed me.

"Aww, you guys make me feel so single." Bradley said in an annoyed tone.

"Alan, can you please feed me while I sit on your lap?" Bradley asked seriously to which Alan stopped eating, he had his eyes wide opened.

"Don't even think about it." He said and resumed while Bradley sulked.

"So.. where is my gift?" I asked while Sebestian smiled on my curiosity.

"Oh.. you'll love it." Bradley said searching for his pocket, probably finding my gift. Just the thought of a gift made me feel like a child, I don't know but I was soo excited.

All my excitement drained out and I scremed on top of my lungs, I probably would be on the floor if it wasn't for Sebestian maintaining his grip on me. Sebestian held me while I vigorously flinched and I hid my face in his neck and held him tightly. All because of the gift.

"Bradley! You motherfucker, put that thing away." Sebestian scolded him on seeing my reaction. He then gently took my face out of his neck, while I was still shivering from the sight of that horrific gift.

"It's gone." He said gently cupping my face and removing the strands of hair which came in view of my eyes. I nodded still shaking.

"Are you mad? She's fucking pregnant." Sebestian said to Bradley regarding the attempt to jump off I made. Bradley just shrugged.

"Whose is it?" I asked regaining from my shock. I asked disgusted of the gift.

The gift Bradley brought was a finger. Some poor human's finger. The finger even had a bow tied on it. It also had the clotted blood. Just the sight of that gift made me want to throw up.

"Mason's." He replied resuming his food, while Sebestian and Alan smirked. Seriously? These guys enjoyed that one of their psychotic friend brought a finger from a dead man.

"The documents to his company are kept in a safe. The safe requires his fingerprint, so here it is." He further said.

My appetite was gone and Sebestian seemed to understand that as he didn't force me to eat.

"We have a lawsuit filed. Kylie wants to take the matter of owning the shares to the court." Alan said wiling his mouth.

Sebestian just released an annoyed sigh. "Deal with it." Sebestian said and Alan nodded.

"What's the new drama about?" Bradley asked, unaware of the situation.

"That bitch thinks that father's death made his share on her name. And therefore she thinks herself of a major shareholder." Sebestian replied, while Bradley nodded and I frowned. She didn't do anything bad to him, why does he address her like this.

"Why do you address her like that?" I blurted out making Alan and Bradley chuckle while Sebestian shot both of them a murderous glare.

"You didn't tell her?" Bradley asked trying his best to suppress his laughter, while Alan did the same.

"What?" I asked, my eyes traveling between the three of them.

"Sebestian, app-"

"Don't!" Sebestian shouted cutting Bradley off. Making me frown.

"Please." I said to Sebestian.

"You'll not like it." He said and I shrugged his warning.

"Why does Sebestian address her like that?" I asked Bradley.

"Would you call a man you once fucked, your father?" He asked.

"No! But what does tha-" I stopped in the middle of my sentence. My eyes wide and my hand went to my mouth all because of the shock as it all sinked in. I looked at Sebestian while he was busy glaring Bradley, who was laughing with Alan. I couldn't believe it. How could he?

Sebestian's phone started ringing causing him to break his death glare at Bradley. He looked at the phone and picked me up placing me on his chair as he kissed my forehead and went out to take the call.

I was still in shock from the ugly truth I just came to know. I sighed getting up from the seat and walking towards the bedroom. I was annoyed and Bradley and Alan's constant laughing didn't help. By the time I reached to the bedroom I was in tears.

These hormones were really extreme. I cried for about 45 minutes. How could he. I sniffed and wiped my tears when he entered the room. I grabbed my phone pretending to be busy on it. Sebestian sat in front of me while I ignored him.

"Padgett." He called out and I just hummed in response still not taking my eyes off the phone. The next thing I know is my phone being snatched away from my hands and I looked up to see Sebestian holding my phone up in the air.

"Give me my phone back." I said as I made an attempt to get my phone but Sebestian just raised it higher. I got up in admant to have my phone back.

He snaked his hand around my waist and pulled me to him the moment I stood up. I had my hands on his shoulder to balance myself.

"Why were you crying?" He asked as he looked up. I looked down to meet his icy blue eyes. He was sitting on the bed, so his face was facing my belly while I for once felt taller than him.

"I wasn't."

"Was it because of what Brad said?" He asked completely ignoring my lie.

I just kept my mouth shut. I didn't want to sound pathetic and say that I was jealous just because I know that my husband slept with his stepmother in the past.

Seeing that I am not replying to his question he just sighed while I was warned that I was testing his patience. Which isn't the best thing.

"It happened a long time ago Padgett. You need not worry about that." He said and I just nodded. I have to trust him.

"I love you, Padgett. You and my baby." He said as he kissed my belly making me smile. I can't really stay mad at him, can I ?

"We love you, too." I said as my fingers again buried themselves in his hair gently caressing it, and I leaned down and pecked his lips.

2 months later

"Don't you think you're too big." Bradley said pointing at my 15 weeks pregnant belly. I was going to yell at him but I just ignored him and continued to eat my chocolate bar. I had too many that I lost count of it.

Bradley was right, I was bigger than usual and my appetite was just increasing, and my food cravings were insane and wierd. I craved for the wierdest combinations of food. And my hormones shouldn't even be in this conversation. I often cried watching a movie or reading a book but was laughing a few minutes later. Bradley often commented of me being possessed.

Bradley stayed with me when Sebestian was out because of work. Sebestian rarely left my side but when he did Bradley or Alan were there. Sebestian's protectiveness increased and I fear what will it be after the child is born. He doesn't let me climb the stairs. He always picks me up.

I tried to focus on my T.V show but it was impossible with Bradley's comment constantly hanging in my mind. I sighed looking down at my stomach it was really big and not just because of the baby bump. I then looked at my chocolate.

Why should I care about what a man who has a mentality of a five-year old said to me?

I glared at Bradley with all my anger and took a huge bite of my chocolate. Finshing it. He noticed my glare and said,

"What?"

He looked a bit confused and I just gave him an angry and annoyed glare.

However, my glare broke when I heard Sebestian enter the theatre room. I smiled stretching my arms, calling for him like a toddler. He just chuckled and kissed me, licking the corner of my mouth, making me realise that I probably had chocolate there. He carefully pulled me to his lap. It's a matter of weeks and I won't fit on that lap anymore.

"How is my wife and my baby doing?" He asked he caressed my bump. The fondness in his eyes couldn't be denied.

"Good." I said honestly I was having no problem with the baby. Over the days, Sebestian started opening up to me more often. We were both now very comfortable with each other. No matter how drastically he changed with me, he was still the same to everyone else.

"Was Brad a trouble to you?"

"Excuse me!?" Bradley's voice came before I could reply. We turned our heads to his direction. He just had an unbelievable expression on.

"What the fuck?" He said and clearly objevted Sebestian's question.

"Don't curse." I said keeping a hand on my belly. The type of enviroment I live might effect my baby as well and I surely didn't want my baby to be anything like Bradley.

"Yeah, and you say I'm the one who's the troublemaker?" He said to Sebestian while pointing towards me.

Did I trouble him?

I had tears brimming the corner of my eyes. I didn't want to trouble him.

"I'm sorry." I said and looked down feeling bad for troubling him.

"Don't be." Sebestian said while grabbing my face and wiping my tear giving Brad a death glare he got up holding me in bridal style and walked towards the room. I smiled widely sticking my tounge out at Bradley when we were leaving.

My hormones!!

Sebestian placed me on the bed and after changing his clothes he joined me. The only thing which made a distance between us was my growing belly. Though it wasn't that big, it still managed to make distance.

"What do you want it to be?" I asked staring at Sebestian who carrased my stomach.

"I just want a healthy baby. Doesn't really matter if it will be a boy or a girl." He said and smiled at me, while I just felt the tears coming up. Why does this have to be so emotional?

"Why are you crying, babygirl?" He asked as his hand came and wiped my tears. I just shook my head,

"I don't know." I said making him chuckle. This was really messing with my head.

"Sleep, Padgett. You have an appointment tomorrow." He said pecking my lips while I just nodded, placing my hands over his which was caressing my stomach.

I closed my eyes, thanking God for everything good happening in my life and slowly let the darkness consume me.

___________________

After a very good morning and a delicious breakfast. I was sitting in the car with Sebestian, we were going towards the hospital.

Sebestian was driving with one hand interwined with mine and the other was managing the steering wheel. I looked out of the window with a hand caressing my belly. I sighed hoping everything will be just fine. I didn't want anyone to harm my baby and I know Sebestian will make it so. I trust him.

We were in the waiting room and thankfully Sebestian's guards were outside. I didn't like those tall and muscled men walking behind us with that emotionless face.

The glares of all people there were enough to make me aware of their thinking regarding me. Some were in wonder of how could I carry Sebestian's child and some were probably jealous of me bearing his child. I was aware of how to ignore all these glares now. It was nornal for me to be judged just because I am married to Sebestian. I ignored all these and just rested my head on Sebestian's shoulder. He in response just wrapped his left arm around my shoulder, making me snuggle into him more. I hummed in satisfaction and made an attempt to sleep which didn't last long because the nurse called out my name.

"Padgett Knight." She said and then even her eyes widened in realisation and I internally groaned. Why did my husband has to be this known? I was now irritated by Sebestian and walked ahead of him towards the examination room. I stopped when I felt his hand snake around my waist.

"Carefull, babygirl. You're walking too fast." He said pecked my lips. I smiled, not looking around but only imagining the faces of all those who despised me. I couldn't really stay mad at him. I nodded and let him hold my hand and we made our way towards the examination room.

"You can change into these, the doctor will be here in a few minutes." The nurse said handing me the hospital gown and then leaving.

"Turn around." I said to Sebestian as I was going to take my shirt off.

"I don't want to." He said as he came towards me. He picked me up and placed me on the examination bed as he stood between my legs. His hands travelled to the end of my shirt as they preceded to pull it up. I let him do whatever he was doing. He wasn't going to stop even if told him to.

He just smirked as I stretched my hands up, making it easier for him to take my shirt off. He continued his movements and took my pants off. I sat there infront of him, just in my undergarments. He just stared at me, while I blushed, embarresed, I just hope that the doctor doesn't come in. Not now of all times.

Before I could ask him to stop his actions he kissed me. All hard and rough. He kissed me and pulled back when we were both out of breath. I was still panting when his lips came in contact with the skin of my neck. He kissed my skin, licked it and later sucked on it, while I had my around his neck, pushing him more into my neck. I couldn't deny it, everything Sebestian did to me was just perfect. I tried my best not to moan and he did his best to make sure I did. And he didn't even had to try hard. He could make anyone effortlessly fall for him. Just like I did.

He decended towards my cleavage doing the same and finaly to my baby bump. He kissed my bump and then kissed me on my lips.

"I love you. Only you and no one else." He said making me smile, surely he knew me too well.

"I love you, too" I said pecking his lips.

He smiled, something he rarely did but now he does, quite often but only to me. He dressed me in the knee-length gown the nurse gave.

After a few more moments the doctor came in with a smile. She lifted my gown to reveal my baby bump.

"How far are you, again?" She questioned.

"15 weeks." I said and the doctor nodded.

She applied the gel on the transducer, and placed it on my belly. Sebestian was there all the time, by my side, holding my hand. My eyes were on the screen while the doctor continued to move the transducer around my belly.

"Say hi to your babies, Mrs. Knight." The doctor said making me look at Sebestian, who was too busy to admire them.

"Am I expecting twins?" I asked just to make sure the doctor nodded while smiling,

"Here they are." She said and pointed to the two foetuses. My babies. My eyes had tears forming, while I again looked at Sebestian.

He smiled while kissing my forehead. Thank God for, my wonderful babies.

"Would you like to know the gender?" The doctor asked while I nodded. I was so excited. The doctor moved the transducer around before saying,

"Congratulations, you are having two boys." The doctor said switching the machine off. She handed me a tissue.

"I'll meet you two in my clinic." She said before exiting.

Sebestian helped me clean the gel off my stomach and then helped me sit up.

"We're having twins." I said as my arms came around his neck and he nodded kissing me.
