《Begging for forgiveness》Chapter 19

Cameron's POV
Phil left the next morning early to jump on the bus back to Forster where dad would pick him up. He would return with my parents for the funeral to support Keiran and myself. I honestly was numb. I didn't know how to feel about it all. He was the man I loved once upon a time but he had hurt me and part of me was relieved I wouldn't have to fight in court for my babies. I felt guilty for thinking that as well. I was also sad, he was the father of my children and as much as he had hurt me, my children lay of wanted to know him one day.
My lawyer had been in touch stating the police had a letter for me from Keith. Turns out Keith had got into his car drunk on purpose and rammed into a wall. He was alive when the paramedics got to him but died on route to the hospital. Keiran had spent most of the morning on the phone with his dad planning the funeral and organising the memorial. He asked if I wanted to speak at the service but I declined. I had nothing to really say. I also didn't want to be in the spotlight. Maz had been in the media this morning claiming I was attempting to take all of Keith's estate but that was news to me. I had no intention of claiming anything from Keith, we weren't together when he took his own life.
A knock on the door brought me out of my thoughts and soon his mum and dad were storming into Keiran's lounge room. "You" Maz screamed at me. I stood up not liking the look in her eyes. Keiran noticed and put himself between us. "I swear if you don't disappear I will make you. Sarah may not of been able to get rid of you but I sure as hell will and take your children" Maz screamed. "What?" I replied. "You think I didn't have a hand in getting rid of you? You just had to get in Keiran's head though. You were never good enough for Keith and you deserved everything you got. It's a shame that he worked out what I had done yesterday" she yelled before she realised what she had said. "Maz what the hell did you do?" Max screamed.

My phone dinged and it was a copy of the letter coming through that my lawyer sent.
My dearest Cameron,
What did I do to deserve an angel like you? I loved you with my whole heart and then I lost you which is my biggest regret. I'm so sorry for allowing my mum to hurt you and our beautiful children. I found out she and Sarah were working together to get rid of you. I should of known but was blinded by rage and for that I am eternally sorry. She was going to take our babies from me and threatened to cut me off if I didn't agree to take custody of our children. I couldn't allow it, I didn't want them growing up like me.
I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough to stand up to her. I know this is the cowards way out, but I'm doing this for you and our children. Please know I never stopped loving you at all. I want you and our twins to be happy and live a life full of love and laughs. Please tell them how much there dad loved them.
My dearest Cameron please find a man who loves you as much as I do and be happy. Keep our children safe from my mother.
Love Keith.
I gasped and tried to stop myself crying. I had blocked out what was happening around me. "You, you pushed him to take his life? You pushed him to take my children and you forced him to go for custody threatening to take everything from him? How could you do that? How could you hurt your own child?" I asked. Maz shoved Keiran out of the way storming towards me looking like she was ready to kill. Maz raised her foot looking like she was going to kick me but was tackled by Max. I was to shocked to move. Keiran wrapped his arm around me leading me to his room before he called the police.

Within the hour Maz had been arrested and I was in a state of shock. Keiran and Max were trying to talk to me but I couldn't respond. It was like I wasn't there. Max sent for a doctor to come check me out while Keiran helped me into bed putting me under the blankets because I was shaking. How could a mother do that to her own child? How could someone try to harm unborn children that she professed to love because it was the last connection to her son? I had to many thoughts in my head and I started to feel sick. "Help me up" I called before Max and Keiran helped me up. I waddled my way to the bathroom just in time to empty my stomach into the toilet. My knees gave out and I was on the floor with Keiran and Max shouting something.
Next moment I woke in a hospital bed connected to different machines and had an IV pumping fluid into me. I looked around the room noticing the twins heartbeats were being monitor and they looked stable. I was also hooked up to a heart monitor. In the corner Keiran was sleeping on a couch. "Keiran" I called. He shot up quickly looking at me. "You're awake? I'll grab the doctor". He said before exiting the room.
Keiran walked back in a few minutes later with a woman I have never seen before. "Hi I'm Jenny one of the midwives here tonight. How are you feeling?" She asked. "Im ok. What happened?" I asked. "Well you fainted" she replied. I nodded my head in understanding. "The doctor will be here shortly but you will be spending the night with us. We spoke to your midwife team already and let them know what happened. Your babies are stable for now. Try to get some more rest ok?" She said. I just nodded again and she was gone. "Keiran, what happened?" I asked. "You fainted after my mother tried to attack you. I'm so sorry Cameron" he said. "It's not your fault we are ok" I replied. He just nodded his head.
The doctor soon came in repeating what the midwife had said. He let me know he had put me on blood pressure medication which I would need to stay on for the rest of my pregnancy and informed me I needed to rest as much as possible. He also let me know if my blood pressure remained stable overnight he would send me home in the morning. He gave me his condolences and left. "Do you mind if I stay with you the night?" Keiran asked. "Not at all. We will be ok if you want to head home though" I replied. He just waved me off and got back on the couch. We both dozed off pretty quickly.

Raven: The Beginning
'What's the worst that could happen'? is what I thought to myself as I entered the World of the Veil with a new, experimental machine that the company created. I was originally excited to participate in their alpha test, and now, looking back, I was just a naive little girl that didn't know what it was like to truly suffer. Sarah was one of the world's best assassin players, but she wasn't prepared for getting stuck as a low-level player in a new game. Suddenly she has to struggle just to survive against the monsters of the world, while also keeping her secret from the authorities. What happens when the killing, and the consequences, are just too real? Author's Note (and a Warning): This book is about a normal person that is forced into a fantasy / medieval environment. What could possibly go wrong with our heroine? This novel is a sort of, legacy. I wanted to at least put it out there before I passed away due to a combination of financial difficulty, homelessness, job loss, and my last interview taking up the last of my savings (which I did not get the job). If by some miracle, and I get a job that can give me a pay advance by next week (4/8) and I survive this turbulent time, I will edit this - and the formating of the book). If you are so willing, please donate on my patreon page. Regards, Dave
