Sofia's POV

--flashback--

"Come on Sofia, you can do it?" I could hear Anna shouting at me. But I can't do it. I just can't. I'm not as strong as her.

"Call Ben-Benja-Benjamin please!" I shouted but everyone was telling me to just push. I never wanted to see Benjamin again but this pain. This pain of giving birth is worse than any other pain.

"Come on Sofia, just push. You always wanted a baby. Remember when you said 'I hope I have a cute baby like Annette?" Anna tried everything with me. Telling me what I used to say every time I think of going into labor.

"I told you to fucking call Benjamin. He has a right. It's his son I'm giving birth too." I yelled at Anna. She is here for me and only God knows where the person that was supposed to be here, is. If his partying or sleeping around I hope he gets in an accident on the way home. I'm dying here giving birth. And he's enjoying his single life.

"I found his number on the emergency section. Must I really call him?" What the hell is she thinking, trying to call Benjamin? He is going to take the baby away from me.

"You try even calling him bitch I swear, I will kill you." I yelled at Anna, once again. Oh God give me strength. Is this what they call giving birth. This is the worst job ever. How did people even survive?

"Fuck you bitch. Just push the damn baby." Anna got pissed with me. I know she knows how I'm feeling right now. Because she gave birth to Annette a month ago.

"Fuck you Anna Hendricks." The doctors were running out of patience with me. "Get it out of me, please!" I yelled. I'm never ever getting pregnant or married again. Just imagine the teenage kids that get pregnant. God help those kids. I am really not as strong as them.

"Benjamin put it in me. Call that son of a bitch to take it out of me." I shouted at the top of my lungs. I swear I'll kill Benjamin one day for doing this to me. Tears were rolling down my cheeks. I hate giving birth, I just hate it.

"You endangering the baby and yourself Sofia Valentines." The doctor told me but I couldn't do it.

"You seriously going to punish a baby because of there father." What the hell? How dare she say that to me. And at that moment I pushed and pushed until I heard the cry of a baby. I finally did it. I'm never letting a man ever touch me again. They can all go to hell for all I care.

"I see another head, push Sofia." Anna said, giggling. She almost gave me a heart attack. Just imagine if they were twins. I couldn't even push one out. How could I push two babies out?

"Fuck you, Anna Hendricks. Where's my baby?" I asked the doctor.

"Congratulations, it's a baby boy." She said.

"Thank you" I replied as I held my baby boy. From this moment on, I know this baby will always be mind. I know I am going to name him Elijah. Elijah Carson black, I'll give his true surname but I'll never tell Benjamin. He can go see those people that told him I cheated on him. He believed them over me. So this isn't his son. After all, I did cheat on him from his point of view of me.

"He's so cute, and beautiful Sofia." Anna said trying to ask me to hand her my baby boy.

"No, you going to drop him." I replied looking at my beautiful baby boy. I was serious when I said that but she took it as a joke.

"Hey! you also held my daughter when she was born. And plus did you forget you were going to give him up." There's that again. Months ago I wanted to give this baby away. I never wanted him because I didn't want anything of Benjamin. And I knew nothing about how to take care of someone, let alone a baby. But Anna and Marko helped me. That's why I decided to keep him.

"Fine drop my baby, and you will never see a better day," I gave Eli to her.

"Name?"

"I don't know maybe Elijah Carson Valentines Black." I said trying to take my baby boy back, but she moved away from me.

"That's a beautiful name. Carson Black must be the father." She acted like she was going to give me my baby back but then she just took another step back laughing at how I was so excited to take him back.

"Benjamin Carson Black. Is his father now give me back the baby?" I said almost in a shouting voice.

"I heard that name somewhere. Anyways, the doctor has to do a check-up for the baby. You need to sleep." She glared at me, and then I slept. I started dreaming, dreaming of everything that night. The night I sacrificed myself for Benjamin.

--flashback-- no one's POV.

"See you tonight Sofia. Don't wait up for me." Benjamin said while opening the door.

"As if I ever wait up for you!" Sofia replied knowing she always waits up for him. Even though she acts like she doesn't care about him. She has fallen in love with him but she tries her best to hide it from everyone.

As Benjamin left the house for his secret mission that day. Sofia didn't expect to see his 'partners' to come to the house. She always had a bad feeling about them but she would've never thought they would have used Benjamin to get to her.

"What the hell, you doing here? Benjamin left already." Sofia said as she tried to close the door back but they were too strong. They pushed her and came in the house. She tried to call Benjamin but she couldn't. They have been married for six months but he would kill her if she disturbs him from any of his meetings.

"We know that's why we here. If you want him still alive after tonight, then you would do what we tell you to do." One of the men said as they moved towards Sofia. They were completely out of their minds.

"I don't care about him but even if you try, he is too dangerous for you to even try harming him. His--his going to kill you if you touch me." Sofia took two steps back, shaking remembering her stepfather who always used to abuse her.

"You don't believe us!" The other guy said as he took his phone out. "Here look." He gave Sofia the phone. What she saw was Benjamin getting beaten up to death.

"Pleas-please stop them." Sofia could feel her eyes watering. Benjamin Carson the only person she actually cares a lot about. The one person she loves most in this world getting beaten up, by eight to ten guys. "Wait that's not what he was wearing." She added trying to see if they actually setting her up.

"Yeah, of course, he can't wear a suit, he has a side job baby girl, the OMERTA." The guys said taking a step forward. Sofia was surprised, not shock. Because she knew somehow he had an illegal business. Coming home late every night made her suspicious of him. "We just want you to do a little thing if you want him to live of course." One man said as the other one gave Sofia a strange smile.

"What ?" Sofia asked, hoping it doesn't have to be something she can't do. Something that would cause Benjamin to die just because she couldn't do it.

"Strip for us! We missed you on the stage you know. It's been a year since we last had a good time with a stripper. You know it was hard finding you. Next thing we know, the stripper we loved the most is engaged. But we were so happy to know you got married to our best friend. But the fucker cheated us. We saw you first. Anyways his going to die if you don't hurry up." The man felt dizzy but he stopped himself from falling. His head was in so much pain but he couldn't do anything. Sofia let all the tears she had in her eyes. She was trying not to cry when she saw Benjamin getting beaten up. But them reminding her about her past made her cry even more.

"Baby girl put this on. And you got less than five minutes. Or your loverboy will die." Jay vomited on the floor. "Hurry up." He commanded.

Carlos answered his phone. He was too drank to control himself anymore. "Boss, he killed them all?"

"What the fuck do you mean. You were nine guys how the hell did one guy kill you all?" Carlos said as he whispered. Benjamin is strong.

"Boss they all dead, he said he was just warming up. I hardly escaped, after all, I was only the cameraman." The other man on the phone replied.

"I'll send you, your money. I don't care if they are dead." He dropped the phone.

Sofia started stripping for them, but she was still crying. Tears rolled down her face. But she couldn't stop it. Doing this made her remember even more about her horrible past. She was stripping while the two guys were cheering for her.

*****

"Sofi I'm home." Benjamin said as he got in the house, and there were bruises all over him. "Thank god, she's sleeping I wouldn't want her on my case again." He whispered as he was about to leave Sofia's room, someone jumped up to him. "Thank god, you alive." Sofia cried.

"I could've killed you, you know. I may be your husband. But this is fake, don't act like we anything. So tell me why are you surprised that I'm alive?" Benjamin asked while taking her hands off him. This bitch is delusional, is she on drugs or something. Benjamin wondered.

"Um, I thought you were dead." Sofia replied as a tear dropped from her eyes. But before she could tell him about the two guys. She remembered their words. Their words were all she could think of. If she wants Benjamin to survive then that's the secret she promised herself to take to her grieve.

"Why? It's not like if I die it's any of your business. But what the hell are you hiding?" Benjamin knew Sofia sucked at lying. But all she did was go back to bed. And from that day on he promised to find out how she knew about the fight. Can she be one of them? One of his enemies? Were the questions playing like music in his head.

From that day Benjamin tried keeping Sofia close to him. Thinking she may be working for his enemy but little did he know she was suffering because of him. To save his life, she did something she would've never thought she would. Because of him, she almost lost all her morals. And because of him, she started to remember some of her horrible past, she was trying to escape.
