The unexpected

3 weeks later...

Ace had suspected something was wrong with her body. She had been feeling sick the last 3 weeks. Every morning and every night she had vomited at least 5 times. Her period was due but there were no signs.

Ace went to see her doctor, Ace convinced she had a tummy bug or some sort asked if her doctor would give her a prescription.

The doctor asking her about her symptoms doesnt show to match them up with a virus. Instead she asks about Ace's sexual activity. Ace lies and explains she has a boy friend who she is activity sleeping with. The doctor then ask her the last date of her menstrual cycle. Ace writes it down from her diary and then goes to do a urine sample asked by the doctor. Sitting in the chair fidgeting and shaking she tries to distract herself, whilst the doctor does a pregnancy test. Ace goes into a day dream she didn't want to think about parent hood, not just yet anyway she wanted to think about how she was going to move back to London and live with her brother Thomas. Ace knew Nick had been getting his security team to stalk her over the last few weeks since the day she locked him up in the Chambers. Ace was being watched like a hawk and knew she couldn't make a single move without Nick knowing. Today she even had to tell Nick that her doctors appointment was for a stomach ache. He had a tracker placed in her phone and when she received a text in the waiting room she responded back saying she had appointment that she told Nick about 4 days ago. Nick being Nick clearly had taken much notice of her and just told her to get back to the office afterwards as they had a meeting to attend this afternoon with ceo from wardcrats company.

"Miss Pearce you're results have come back positive. Congratulations" explains the doctor handing her some leaflets.

Ace mouth dropped, her eyes begins to water. She feels a shudder of warm light come through the curtains. Ace's face turns blank. The doctor still holding the leaflets becomes concerned.

"I know its alot to take in, but I assure you there is lots of help and options available to yourself. Would you like to take these and have a look" asked the doctor with expressed concerns.

Ace takes the leaflets and nodds falling back into her chair. The doctor booked her another check up appointment the following week after and then booked her in with a midwife who would then book her for a scan for when she would be 12 weeks.

After leaving her gp she heads over to pharmacy and grabs a clear blue test. She rushes home and takes the test.

3 WEEKS PREGNANT!!! Reads the test.

Ace falling to her knees feeling consumed and overwhelmed with the news. Ace never dreamed of becoming a mum at the age of 23. There was so many plans she had and having a baby wasn't part of them. Feeling conflicted Ace starts to look up clinics in her area. Suddenly out of nowhere there is someone pounding at her front door. Ace rushes over to answer it.

"Nick" Ace screeches in terror.

"Your late, you stupid bitch we have a meeting in 10 minutes let's go before we're late." Yells Nick In diguet.

"I will grab my keys, hold on" gently exhales Ace.

"Good I need the toilet, wait outside for me" he orders. Ace coming to her senses. Pulls at his arms

"Wait, you can't use my toilet is doesn't work" I cry anxiously.

"What on earth is gotten into you" he laughs shaking me off.

"Please let's just hurry back to your office you can go toilet there" I beg him.

Getting annoyed he slams me into the wall.

"Go downstairs and wait for me I said, I'm going to piss in your toilet and you will go downstairs and order us a taxi" he threatened with a fist gesture.

Ace knowing she left the pregnancy test in the bathroom sink, feels her body locking into a cramp in the middle of her stomach.

"What the hell is wrong with you" Nick notices my body trembling and picks me up over his shoulders. He throws me onto my bed and makes a phone call to work saying the meeting is cancelled.

Soon as he hangs up he goes into the bathroom. As I hear him flush the toilet I pull the covers over my head, slowly counting down 3,2,1

"HOLLY FUCK, IS THIS FOR FUCKING REAL" I hear Nick shouting through the thin walls from the top of his lungs in horror. I knew I was in serious trouble now. If I had any plans to escape they were now ruined. I was never going to get away. My life was over. Hearing he footsteps entering my room, felt like a cannon being set off.

"Explain that shit to me. That's in your bathroom sink" he howled with terror.

Pulling the covers from me, he hovered over me like a wolf, waiting for me to respond.

"I only just found out" I scream back at him.

"You tried to hide it from me, are you that fucking stupid. Did you not think I would find out you fucking idiot. Is your fucking brain that small and stupid that you honestly think you could keep this from me" he yells at the top of his lungs. Suddenly I knew then, this baby wasn't going to be mine. It was going to be Nicks. Grabbing my ankles he pulls me towards him. I don't fight him.

He grabs me by my hair and throat.

Applying pressure round my neck he slowly starts to pull me closer into his.

"You ever hide anything from me again and I will personally see to it that you end up buried in my shed. If you even try to grow a brain or attempt anything like this again I will personally see to it that your death will be slow and unpleasant!!!" He whispers. Finally he let's go of his grip. I drop back onto bed gasping for air. Trying to focus on my breathing, I notice him beginning to undress.

A sharp pain occurred into my stomach, crying to myself it was that moment I had wished I was dead.

Nick forces his way into me, not resisting him I let him pin me down and continue to fuck me how ever he wishes because that's all I could do.He doesn't last long this time, and when he finishes. He climbs into bed next to me, Spooning me, I just let him lay there and carry on. My whole life was now coming to an end. I wasn't even safe in my own bed, my own home had now became a place of torture and there was nothing I could do about it. As I laid there quietly next to Nick, I began to plan my suicide.

"Ace, I've had time to think about us having this baby, I've decided its a good thing. This baby will be my ultimate hold I have over you. The baby will of cause have my name and so will you. We will get married in December. 4 months away from now . We will move to a bigger house and raised the child just outside the city." Calmly carrying on the conversation to himself. Nick, doesn't notice that I'm no longer listening. I switched off in horror at the getting married part. This man was serious he wanted to control everything and now I was having his baby I had fallen into his trap.
