PREGNANT FOR A PRINCE : EPISODES 31 – 40
By Faith Lucky
Episode 39
As soon as I noticed he wasn’t holding me anymore, I started running away.
But being weak and all, he caught up with me and gripped me by the hair.
“Let me go!!” I screamed and lifted an empty bottle beside me to h!t him, but he was fast enough and pushed it away, making it crash on the floor.
“You je.rk!!”, he snarled and gave me a thunderous sI.ap which flew me to the floor.
“Arghhhh” I shrieked as I landed on the floor, htting my waist badly.
He came to me and held my neck, ch.oking me terribly. My lips were bI.eeding.
“You wanna play smart, huh? You really wanna play smart??”, he yelled into my face and pvnched my tummy
“No!!! Please!!” I cried bitterly as I felt excruciating pains.
Oh my goodness! It hurts!
“Do you really want me to kill you even before Zosar meets my demands? Huh??” He nagged.
“No! I’m sorry,,please! I’m sorry” I wept like a baby, just wanting him to stop .
“Come here!” He said coldly and dragged me up by the hair, taking me away.
I kept crying, making sure he doesn’t see the piece of glass I had hidden with me.

Zosar’s Pov:
“Zosar, Zosar, what are you doing?” Mum asked after me as I walked into the room to grab my car keys.
“What does it look like, mum? You heard what he said! He’s going to harm Zoey if I don’t meet his demands,” I said without looking at her.
“So, what? You’re just going to give up your birthright to a total stranger without a second thought? What’s wrong with you?” She rasped.
“I don’t care, mum! I need to save her. She needs me; my baby needs me!”
“Use your head, Zosar! And not your feelings! How can you possibly give up the position of a crowned prince to a nobody? How?”
“You’re still very young and will definitely have more kids. You can’t just…”
“So, you want me to sit back and let an innocent lady die? Isn’t it bad enough she got into this mess by carrying someone else’s child? And now you want her to die?”
“Well, why not sit back and let the guards do their job? We’ve sent them already, and your father’s warned you to stay back…”
“I’m sorry, mum, but I can’t just sit back and do nothing, knowing time’s not on my side. I’m sorry.”
I nabbed my keys and turned to leave the room.
“Zosar, I’m ordering you as your mother not to go.” She said, and I paused but didn’t turn to look at her.
“I’m sorry,” I simply muttered and left the room.
I got outside and met six guards at the doorpost.
“My prince, I’m sorry, but your father has ordered us to keep you in your room,” the head among them said, and I scoffed.
“Get out of my way. I won’t say it again,” I warned.
“I’m sorry, but the King…”
“I said leave!” I said loudly, and they fell on their knees, coughing.
I walked past them, headed to one of my cars.
I just couldn’t think straight at that moment as the only thought on my mind was getting Zoey away from Ebonee.
I just needed to save her and my baby, and I’m ready to do anything.
I got to my black jeep and took the driver’s seat, and as I ignited the car, a question rested on my mind:
Am I doing this for my baby?
Or for Zoey?

Rana’s Pov:
I wept in the room where I stood, the Queen unable to console me.
“Rana…” She called again and placed her hand on my shoulders.
“Crying won’t solve a thing. You need to stop this”.
“How, mother? How?”,I sobbed.
“Zosar’s giving up his birthright without a second thought for a total stranger and you expect me to be happy? Can’t you see it, mother? Isn’t it evident enough?
Zosar is in love with that lady and he’s ready to do anything at all just to save her! Can’t you see!”
I looked away and wept more bitterly and she sighed.
“I’m sure he’s only concerned about her because she’s carrying his child.
Trust me Rana, the guards are on their way to get him and as soon as he’s back, you two are getting married immediately” she assured me, giving me a little ray of hope.

Zoey’s Pov:
He took me back to the room where I was locked up and tied me up with the ropes
Gosh! They were hurting like hell.
I made sure to fist my hand and hide the piece of glass properly because that was my only hope at the moment
“I’ll come back for you” he held my cheeks and said, then released a light smile before walking away.
I breathed heavily and relaxed my head on the wall, trying to calm my anxiety. Gosh! My whole body was trembling – recalling how he almost as$aulted me.
What would I have done if he had succeeded?
I stood still for a long time and when I figured it was long enough and didn’t hear or notice any movement from him, I decided to make use of the glass.
Please, I just hope he doesn’t come out anytime soon.
I set the glass against the rope and started cutting it.
It was so blunt and difficult, but I had to give it a try.
I continued doing it and in the process, I sustained a little cut on my wrist. Geez!
I still went on and after a long trail, I was able to do it! I did it!
I cut the ropes! Oh my God!
I gasped in shock and quickly removed every bit of it, then stood on my feet.
I looked around, my heart beating so fast. And realizing I was free, I tip-toed to the door, opened it carefully, then ran out.
I was so tired and weak but couldn’t give up. I continued running as fast as my legs could carry me, but not long after, I heard him call from behind.
“Zoey!!”
I turned in shock and saw him standing behind me.
Oh my God!
“You person! Get back here!!!” He cvrsed and I turned around and continued running, feeling so uneasy because of my waist.
God! Where am I?
I couldn’t see any cars or buildings, just trees and bushes by the sides of the road, making me so scared
I got so tired of running as a result of my waist and just then, I heard a coming behind me.
I looked and discovered he was the one.
Oh my God!!
My feet had already become weak and I couldn’t run faster anymore.
Soon, his car got to where I was and he rushed out of the car and started towards me.
No, no, please! Don’t let him get to me. Please!
I continued running desperately, darting into the bushes, but he caught up with me and pvlled me back by the hair.
“You savage!” He snarled as he turned me to face him and landed a sI.ap on my face.
“No!! Let me go!!” I cried, and he sI.apped me again, pvshing me roughly to the ground.
Oh my God!
“Stop it, please!” I begged, my hand on my stomach.
“You want to ruin my plans, huh?” He barked.
“You think you can ruin me! Are you so desperate to d!e?”
He came closer to me on the floor and sI.apped me again.
“Do you know how long I’ve been planning for this?” He asked, holding my neck.
“I’ve been planning this for such a long time, and you think you can ruin it with your foolish bravery? Huh???”
“N…No,” I struggled to say, already cho.king.
“You have just a few minutes left…and I’ll give you the pvnishment you deserve.” He grunted, and I flinched when I saw bI.ood rushing out of his nostrils.
He didn’t seem to notice it, not until it reached his lips, and he started coughing.
He coughed so profusely that his hands fell from my neck.
What’s happening to him?
“I’ll make sure you die before carrying out that threat,” I heard Zosar say, and I turned in shock to see him entering.
Oh my God!!
What????
I gasped and crawled back as he walked in and gr.abbed Ebonee by the collar.
He looked furious. How did he find me?
“How dare you lay your hands on her?” He asked and pvnched him, causing him to fall back on the floor.
He was still coughing and bl.eeding, too weak to fight back.
“You…” He tried to say but ended up coughing up bI.ood.
Oh my God!!!
I held my stomach tightly and recoiled in ho.rror. I almost felt like puking.
Zosar kcked him in the face, and I shrieked.
“Pl…ease,” he managed to beg, and Zosar crouched in front of him.
“In your next life, don’t mess with what’s mine,” he stated coldly and stood up, turning his gaze towards me.
I whimpered in fright, unable to move.
“Hey, Zoey…” He cooed and rushed to me. I stood on my feet and jumped into his arms, hugging him tightly.
I felt so scared and just needed to hold someone.
“Please, take me away from here,” I trembled.
“Please.”
“It’s okay; you’re safe now – I promise,” he said gently and rubbed my back.
