Chapter 72

?EMERALD POV?

Xavier and I have not been in good terms for almost a week now. He wouldn’t talk to me and it felt like things were getting worse by the day.

I was wrong with the way I spoke to him, but the fact that after all these years he still had trust issues broke me down. The kids had gone to school this morning and I have plans of talking to him and trying to get him to forgive me. My phone rang and it was Penny.

“Hey babe” I said as I walked out of our room.

“Rachel, something is wrong” she said as her voice broke down at the other end. The expression on my face changed immediately as I stood on the spot.

“What is wrong? Why the hell are you crying and where are you!” I asked anxiously.

“I think Blake is cheating on me Rachel’ she said as she cried badly and my heart sank. I didn’t want to argue with her because, I was also suspicious about it in the

past.

“How sure are you babe? You could be mistaken about it, what if you are the one over thinking the situation?” I asked and she just cried badly.

“I’m coming over, don’t do anything stu pid” I said and sighed as I went back to the room to get my car keys, then made my way out of the pack house.

The ride to her place was a quiet one. When I got there, she just sat on the bed crying her heart out.

“Hey…” I trailed as I walked over to her and held her hand in support.

“Wanna talk about it?” I asked and she wiped her tears, I really pity her.

“How did you find out? Where? When?” I asked patiently..

“One at a time Rachel, you are not helping matters” she said sadly.

“Okay, I just couldn’t help it” she said and Penny wiped her tears.

“I heard him making a phone call last night Rachel, maybe he thought I was asleep” She said as her voice broke at the edge.

“Whoever he was talking to at the other end, seem to know lots of secret about him and he kept telling her to not send them to anyone” she said and that got me curious.

“You think he is been blackmailed?” I asked curiously.

“Seems like it, but I won’t say he is helpless because he’s sleeping with the woman. He said something about her bringing up the past after the passionate time they spent together” she said and my heart squeezed with hurt for her.

Penny did not deserve any of that, she deserved more than what dad was dishing her. The way am hearing about it pis sed me off.

“I will I be right back” I said and picked my car keys.

“Where are your going babe?” Penny asked immediately with a worried expression on her face.

“Don’t waste your time crying over dad Penny. Go freshen up and get something to eat” I said and made my way out of the house and I matched into Dad’s office with anger. boiling from the pit of my stomach.

“Rachel dear what is wrong with you? Why do you look so worried?” he asked calmly.

“YOU!” I bursted angrily.

“You are wrong with me, because I don’t understand why you would do something like that to Penny after claiming to love her unconditionally” I bursted angrily.

“I don’t understand anything right now dear trust me” he said and that only infuriated me further.

“Trust you? I have always be suspicious of you that Penny wasn’t the only woman in your life. But I gave you the benefit of the doubt because, you made me believe you sincerely loved her!” I said as my voice broke at the edge.

“Don’t you trust me Rachel?” he asked in hurt.

“This is not a conversation of whether or not I trust you Dad You hurt Penny” I said and he sighed.

“Did you or did you not cheat?” I asked calmly.

“I…” he trailed off and I shook my head.

“You just lost her Dad, because am never letting you into this sham you call at relationship” I said and made my way out of his office in anger.

Everything and everyone was pis sing me off, even when I was trying my best not to dwell too much on it. I could not bring myself to pretend like everything was not happening in front of me.

I was on my way to my car when I received a phone call from my children’s nanny.

“Hey Zina, are the boys back from school?” I asked and heard her crying from the other end. My heart pounded crazily against my chest as I tried not to panick.

“What is going on? What happened to the kids?” I asked in panick.

“The…the..the kids got into an accident miss Rachel” she said and my world came crashing down.

“Wait what!” I screamed as my heart burned with hurt.

“Where are they right now? Send me the address” I said as I made my way towards the address she sent me, my heart beat crazily against my chest and tears kept rolling down my eyes uncontrollably.

I will never even forgive myself if something happened to my kids. Immediately I got to the pack hospital, I ran into the hospital with my heart on my throat.

Xavier was standing in the room with his shirt stained in blood

“What happened? Where are our boys Xavier?” I asked as my heart pounded crazily. against my chest.

“I’m sorry baby, try to calm down” he said and tried to hold me down.

“Calm down? I can’t stay calm not after everything that has happened” I said as I shook visibly from the fear of loosing my boys. Xavier also looked a bit shaken up obviously weren’t expecting such terrible news.

“They are going to be fine” Xavier said as I cried.

because, we

“Can I speak with the kids father” The doctor said coming out of the theater room.

“How are they doctor? Are they going to be okay?” I asked and he stared at me.

“We would try our best ma’am. As of now the strong one amongst your twins is out of danger, we should be more concerned about the weaker one” he said and I froze on the

spot.

“Twins? They are not twins doctor, in as much as Rachel and I accept them as our own. We both have each of the boys” Xavier said trying to explain to the man so he wouldn’t make mistakes while treating them.

“I don’t understand what you are saying sir, this is my field of study and the test results prove they are twins” he said and Xavier stood rooted on the floor as the man left.

Everyone in the hospital stared at us in shock and my heart squeezed in hurt. The truth I have been trying to hide for years was f

out in the open, and glaring right at me.

“What did he mean by that Rachel? Tell me it is a lie that this is all a random

misunderstanding, tell me the doctor lied because am about to loose my f ucking mind” Xavier said as his eyes went red with unshed tears.

“….” I stared at him speechlessly.

“No.”

“No”

“No”

“Please no, the Rachel I know would never hurt me” he said as he stared at me in disbelief.

“Rachel!” he called in pain.

“Yes they are your children Xavier, they are our children. What? You can’t face the truth?” I asked and I nearly didn’t recognize how emotionless my voice have become.

“Our children how…” he asked in shock as realization hit him, tears rolled out of his

eyes.

“Emerald” he said and I stared at him with hate, anger and pain in my heart.

“You can’t face the truth can you? It is glaring at you right in the face Xavier, it is just a pity that you can’t face what you created !” I bursted angrily as tears rolled out of my

own eyes.

“For years I planned to make you pay for everything you put me through, for the timest you led me on and watch me burn!”

“You deserve all the worse things in the world for all you put me through Xavier!” I raised my voice as I cried. Xavier stag gered backwards as he kept staring at me with eyes filled with hurt.

“Face it Xavier don’t act like the victim, because you are just having a taste of the rejected Luna’s revenge!” I bursted angrily.

Enough was Enough already.
