Her Dark Desires-Chapter 55: Pregnant.

Days passed and it was already the weekend. Eliana woke up as early as 5 am to get ready, and seeing a sulk on Zachary’s face made her laugh.

"Why are you sulking when you go on a business trip all the time?"

"That doesn’t mean I’m not allowed to miss my wife," Zachary said as he pulled her to him.

"I will be back on Monday," Eliana said as she caressed her lips with his before kissing him.

Zachary wrapped his arms around her waist as he kissed her back and chuckled when she used her tongue to lick his lips. "Let’s not start what we can’t finish, baby." He hid his face on her neck to calm himself, and after a few seconds, he kissed her neck and whispered into her ears, "I love you."

Eliana moaned softly as Zach kept licking and sucking on her neck, and without a doubt, she knew he wanted to mark her.

Eliana did not bother to stop him because she could always cover the mark with enough makeup.

Zach stopped when he saw the hickey he gave her; he kissed it one more time and then her cheek before saying, "Enjoy your trip"

"I will call you whenever I get the chance," Eliana said with a smile. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Zachary sighed and collected her suitcase from her hand "I will drop you off at the airport."

Eliana held his hand before he could leave with her suitcase and she wanted to ask him about his promise to her but for some reason, the words couldn’t come out of her mouth.

Zachary felt Eliana’s hand on his wrist tightened, and he knew exactly what she wanted to ask him. He slowly removed her hand from his wrist and held it.

"Not now Eli. Go to Siol, enjoy this trip, and when you come back, he will be waiting for you, and you will be the judge of his punishment."

"Kill him," Eliana said without hesitation. "I don’t want to see him anymore Zach, just kill him."

Zachary smiled and caressed her cheek as he said, "After we find out who asked him to kidnap you, then I will get rid of him. Let me worry about these things, for now; you should focus on your runway, ok?"

Eliana nodded and hugged him. They both stayed in each other’s arms for a while before Zach dropped her at the airport.

Lennox Group

"A woman named Sloane Moore is here to see you." David’s assistant said.

Amber’s mother? "Send her in."

His assistant nodded, and a few seconds later, Sloane angrily walked into David’s office and slammed a paper on his desk.

David looked at the paper on his desk with a frown and asked "What is the meaning of this?"

"Read it and tell me how you plan on handling this situation as the head of the Lennox family."

David collected the piece of paper from his desk and froze when he saw what it contained.

"What does this mean?" He said after finding his voice.

"It means Amber is pregnant. When she told me she was four days late, I decided to let her take a pregnancy test and what you are holding is the result."

David immediately remembered when Jason had said they didn’t use any protection, but still, how was she pregnant so quickly?

"Thankfully, I was able to push Amber’s wedding to Nolan to a week from now, but Nolan will never accept another’s manchild, and Jason is too immature to make decisions concerning a baby, so David, what do you want to happen? Should Amber abort this baby, or will Jason take responsibility?"

"Abort? How can you even say such a thing? Since the child is Jason, then there will be no abortion, Amber will birth this child, and that is final," David said firmly. The baby was his blood, so how could he ask Amber to kill his grandchild?

"Do you not know how today’s society is? Amber was an uprising star before TM Entertainment went down and you want her to now become a single mother? I made a mistake coming here, Amber, aborting the child might just be the best decision for my Amber."

"Jason will marry her."

"And he refuses."

David sighed and stood up from his CEO seat, saying, "At this point, he doesn’t have a say. Amber is keeping the child and Jason will marry her. I give you my word Sloane."

Sloane let out a slight smile and said "Then I have no choice but to hold you to your word."

...

In a dark basement, a man with dark blonde hair was tied to a chair; blood was coming out of his mouth because of the punch he had recently received, and his labored breath was a sign that his body was already feeling weak and tired of being beaten up.

Ryan looked at his bruised fist and hissed in annoyance. It was obvious he was getting bored and it won’t be long before he put a bullet in this idiot.

He turned when he heard footsteps behind him and saw that it was his brother coming.

"Has sister-in-law travelled already?" Ryan asked softly.

Zachary nodded as he ruffled Ryan’s hair. "Good job."

Ryan’s eyes widened in surprise, and for a moment, he froze, savoring the affectionate gesture. Then a slow smile spread across his face as his hand drifted up to touch his hair. Some people grew up with the desire to get their father’s approval, but Ryan grew up with the desire to get his brother’s approval. It was the desire to protect his brother that drove him to apply for the military.

"Has he said anything reasonable?" Zachary asked, bringing Ryan out of his moment.

"He keeps insisting that no one paid him to do it. He said he kidnapped her to ask for ransom but when he figured out that he would be caught, he asked his accomplice Jeremy to get rid of her." Ryan replied.

A badly beaten-up Mason raised his head to look at Zachary and said, "If you want to kill me, then get it over with."

Zachary looked at the man for a few seconds and let out a cruel smirk, saying, "Why should I kill you when I can just kill your lover instead?"

Mason scoffed and said, "I do not have a lover."

"Really? Ryan, you can permit Colt to kill Amber."

"With pleasure." Ryan said and dialed a number saying "You can kill her."

Mason widened his eyes and shouted with all his strength, "Don’t you dare lay a figure on her; I will kill you if you touch even her hair! I will kill you!."

Ryan laughed and showed Mason his phone. There had been no call, and it was all a ruse.

Zachary’s voice dropped to a frosty tone "So you do know Amber."
