Lena's POV
I felt sweat drip from my forehead regardless of the coolness from the Air conditioners in Dr Smith's office. My heart raced extremely fast, I felt Dominic Knight's eyes pierce deeply into my soul. I gulped a lump down my throat as his next words left me in anxiety. "Dr, are you sure about this?" I could sense uncertainty laced in his tone.
I fiddled with my palms and tried my possible best to avoid eye contact with Dominic. I had not even processed the fact that destiny had played a funny trick on me by making Dominic be the stranger i had sex with. Of all people, of all men, it just had to be him.
Dr Smith nodded her head slowly and responded in a very serious tone. "Yes Mr Knight. I just conducted a few tests to examine her body and i noticed that there was already an embryo growing in her." Dr Smith said.
Fuck, I was screwed. My countenance fell as I imagined what would happen to me next. It was not like everything was entirely my fault. It was not like I had forced myself on Dominic that might, we both had sex willingly.
"Dr Smith, can you please give us a moment to each other?" Dominic asked in a calm yet deadly tone. Dr Smith nodded her head in agreement, she excused herself out of the office, leaving me alone with Dominic. An awkward silence fell between us, I was unsure of what to say. Did I owe him an explanation?
Dominic suddenly cleared his throat, interrupting my thoughts. "You are pregnant." He stated, his voice was low and menacing. "With my child." He continued. I stood up and adjusted my posture, I tried to take a few steps backward but my entire body felt frozen. My mind was telling me to escape but my body kept doing the exact opposite by remaining stiff.
Dominic's gaze left me stuck on the spot. His eyes were burning with fierce possessiveness. "You broke the contract deal..." He trailed off, slowly taking a few steps closer to me. Dominic paused run a hand through his hair in frustration before continuing to speak, his voice was laced with malice. "You were supposed to be a surrogate and not a lover. Now, somehow you carry my real child."
My entire body fidgeted, I tried to explain myself but I was speechless. As if Dominic sensed that I was about to run. He shook his head at me and yelled "Alfred!" To my uttermost surprise, the door to Dr Smith's office flew open wide and some hefty men dressed in black suit stepped into the office.
Judging by their physical appearance, I knew they were Dominic's security. Nevertheless, I still made the attempt to run but unfortunately for me, His security team was too quick. They hastily grabbed me by the arm, holding me in place as Dominic drew closer.
"You need to stop." I cried out in a weak tone as i struggled to break free from the grip of Dominic's security but of course, that was nearly impossible, they were literally twice the size of me, ripped and muscular.
Dominic choked out a small scoff at my pathetic plea. "Stop what exactly? You do not expect me to just let you go. First you broke our deal and second of all, you now carry my child. You have automatically become mine." Dominic said with a straight face. I felt his hot breath dance around my face. He was only a few inches apart from me, I could sense the possessiveness written all over his face.
"What do you mean by I am yours?" I asked staring at him in disbelief. Dominic sighed in response. "You must marry me, Either that or I ruin you. I am giving you a choice now, choose wisely." He said boldly.
My goodness, even his pride irritated me. He carried himself with so much high regard, way too much that it made me really annoyed. Who did he really think he was? A billionaire? So what? He did not own my life. Marrying him was the last thing I would do.
"I would love to watch your attempt at ruining me." I spat out bitterly. For the first time today, Dominic smiled but I could tell his smile was not a genuine one, rather it seemed like a warning one. "Do you really want to test me?" He retorted, with a raised brow arched at my direction.
"I will start with your sister lying helplessly in the hospital. Once your sick sister no longer has funds for her treatment. I wonder what will go wrong with her. That all depends on you." Dominic said.
He was evil, I gritted my teeth in anger and shook my head in disapproval. "Do not do anything to Emma, I will do whatever you want. Just continue funding her hospital bills. I will marry you, I will do any single thing you ask of." I said in a haste, bowing my head low.
Dominic ordered his boys to let go off me. He raised my chin up and gave me a cold, calculating smile. "Good choice."
That was how everything happened so fast. Dominic and i got married. The ceremony was a small one where only the most important people in our lives were invited.
From that moment onwards, I felt trapped. I was bound to a ruthless Billionaire by a contract and by a child.
On the night of our wedding, Dominic insisted that I slept in the same room with him. I knew that it was his own way of torturing me.
As I laid on the king-sized bed with my back against him, I felt his arms pull me closer to himself. His hot breath lingered against my ear.
"You stole from me Lena.." He slowly whispered. His voice dripped with malice. "Now I will make sure you spend the rest of your life paying for it."
