himself.
That day in the nurse s office he had pinned her down on the bed and she had tearfully told him how much she hated him She was so innocent so vulnerable
He cursed at himself over and over
His muscles tensed as the anger built inside him He scowled his handsome face twisted in frustration but soon a small smile curved on his lips
Cecelia had a goodnight s sleep after she got back to the apartment The next day Wendy and Halsey took her out shopping
The three of them walked through them all entering a boutique that sold accessories Wendy s eyes lit up when she saw a collection of cute hairpins
The pins were in candy colored shades with designs of pink strawberries green watermelons and yellow lemons all very playful and vibrant
Wendy these hairpins are perfect for you Why don t you get the yellow one Halsey suggested
I think the pink one is nice too Cecelia chimed in with a thoughtful look
Cecelia and Halsey both gave their input but before Wendy could make a decision a familiar voice interrupted her
Wendy what a coincidence You re out shopping too
Wendy looked up and there stood Luna

Cecelia raised an eyebrow Oh Did you win an Oscar or something
Luna s expression faltered for a moment
You little she snapped but quickly recovered pressing her hand to her chest as if feeling faint She bent over and started to fake a gagging sound
Halsey frowned Luna what are you up to now
Luna stopped her face pale She looked at Wendy her tone almost pitiful Wendy I ve been feeling really off lately 1

Luna smiled at Wendy a sly glint in her eyes Wendy when I was with Mr Hawk he didn t use protection I m carrying his child
Luna was pregnant with Stanley s child
Wendy had already suspected Luna might be pregnant when she had seen Luna bending over to vomit but hearing it confirmed aloud still made her fingers tighten into a fist
Halsey and Cecelia exchanged a stunned glance unable to believe what they were hearing
Just then a deep magnetic voice cut through the tension
