“Octavia!” Mica called as soon as she opened the door..
She sprang up from the bed where she sat and ran up to embrace her.
“Hey; how did it go? How’re you feeling?” She asked after the brief hug, scrutinizing the look on her sister’s face.
“He…He knows” Octavia’s voice was plain. “He knows I’m pregnant – Khalid”.
Mica sighed and turned away. She’s been expecting this.
“I…I don’t know who told him, Mica. I don’t know how he found out. But I didn’t…”
“I told him” Mica cut in and Octavia’s eyes dimmed.
Whaaat???
“You…You did!” Sbe asked, really surprised.
“Yeah. I’m sorry, I had to. It’s complicated but…he was on my neck and I had to spill the truth”.
“Oh” Octavia mouthed and stared at the floor.
It all explans how he’d gotten to know in the first place. She’s been wondering…
“So, what happened? How did it go?” Mica looked at her and asked, curiously and it brought some of the hurtful memories to Octavia.
“He…” She stared blankly at the floor. “He’d called Leo and aasked him to run a test on me. I… I think he actually wanted Leo to ter.minate the baby, but…Leo told him my life would be at risk if we made an attempt again because…The pills I’d previously taken had put the baby at risk. So, we can’t make another attempt now”
“In conclusion, you mean the baby cannot be removed!” Mica asked and she nodded affirmatively.
“Oh God!” She sighed and plonked herself on the bed.
Octavia studied her reaction and knew for sure there was going to be a big problem.
“This is all my fault” Mica mumbled regrettably. “I should’ve gotten you those pills on time”.
Octavia quietly went to sit next to her on the bed.
“I just…I just thought it’s one of those things where…a Lady could have sx for sometime without getting pre.gnant”. She added.
“What do I do, Mica? I’m worried. I…I don’t think I can carry this,I mean…here in the clan” Octavia grouse, but Mica had nothing to say.
“Do you think… Khalid would chase me out?” She asked and Mica muttered “I don’t know”
She really had no idea.
“He’s never going to accept this. There’s nothing going on between us. I shouldn’t be carrying this for him” her her hand moved upto her flat tummy.
A short silence ensued between them.
“But…is it possible for someone to get pre.gnant for a clan Master?” Octavia broke the silence.
“Of course, it is. But…the few I’ve heard of, it’s usually from the Master’s girlfriends. It has never happened between an ordinary clan member and the Master.
So, I’d say it’s almost impossible, Octavia”. Mica answered, making the whole situation worst for Octavia.
SEE THIS : HOW TO GET TRAFFIC
“Do you know how….I was released from Master Klaus?” She asked after a little while.
“Khalid sacrificed a lot bringing you back, Octavia. He had to use our only defense against the Klaus clan” Mica replied.
“Only defense? How?”
Mica went ahead to explain everything to her – how Klaus had asked Khalid to step down from the elections else he was going to ki.ll her, and Khalid had to use the bo.mbs they had in his building.
It’s been a long time already since Octavia was released, and they were sure Klaus must’ve located the rest of the bombs already and disabled them.
Octavia was speechless after listening to the whole story. She really couldn’t believe it. Khalid had taken such risk forbher? But….
“You should wait here, Octavia. I’ll get you something to eat” Mica said as she stood up and left the room, while Octavia went into deep thoughts.
