Eric POV

"There is no problem Mr Smith it was a self-defense act. Leave it to me take care of everything. I'll call you in case there is more needed" The Smith's attorney Logan Wood stood up taking his bag.

"Thank you Logan" I shook his hands.

"Your welcome. I should take my leave"

"I'll escort you out" Justin said leading the attorney out.

I sigh sitting back down "How is she?" I asked my mum Helen Dawson when she can down the stairs from my bedroom.

Her state read disoriented. Helens normal mood wasn't the same again, sadness were written in her whole face. She carefully took the seat beside me taking my hands.

"She's... Quite. Too quite for any normal human being"

I frown my brown in confusion "How quite?"

"Quite enough for someone who feels some sought of guilt or feels dirty. I think it's better you go see her and try communicating with her" My mother said.

Years of being a therapist really paid now. That why immediately Valentina appear and start behaving odd blaming herself for taking a life I had to call up my mother.

Deep down I was happy the psychopath was dead but on the other hand I had wish I was the one who killed him not Valentina to save herself off the guilt.

She was doing it for the baby's sake. Any sane mother will go to any length to save her child if he or she were in any sort of trouble. And I respect Valentina for that, I hope the family also does.

"Is she okay?" Justin ask stepping back into the room. His intimidating vibe feeling the whole area. Despite it all I was happy seeing him here to support but I think it has things to do with his wife Victoria. She was one soft and kind hearted woman who suits someone like Justin.

"Am heading up to check on her" I told everyone present leaving the sitting room heading to mine where Valentina is.

I got to the door when I heard a voice speaking from it "Val you not going and that finally" Jane's said out catching my attention.

There was a pause "But I need to end things once and for all" Her fragile voice made my heart piece in pain.

"Valentina I suggest you listen to Jane. You not going to visit those punks" Victoria; Justin's wife said. Having heard enough I knocked briefly on the ajar door before stepping in.

Valentina lay on the King size bed in my bedroom where she had been ever since the doctor had done a checkup on her. Jane sat at the left side while Victoria and Elsa at the right.

If was reliving to see Victoria here. Her forgiven heart didn't go far to the extent of hating Valentina for all she did to her. One thing that struck was Lisa's absence.

I was reserving my words for her later. How heartless can she be to the extent of not coming to visit her once best friend. Is that how hard she hates her?

"Can I speak to Valentina, alone?" I asked patiently wait for them as we were excused.

Once alone I moved taking the side Jane was before. I stroke her blond hair gently and softly like she were a little delicate thing.

"I'm sorry" Her quite voice shake as she spoke indicating she was in tears.

I tried comforting her "For what?"

Valentina sniff after sobbing hard "I just want you to know"

Something didn't add up to any of this. But I choose to question her later not wanting to disturb her even more than I already did.

"I need to see my parent and siblings one last time to..." I cut her up immediately of wanting to here anymore of it.

"No, you're not seeing them not now not ever again" Now feeling a full force of anger by her decision.

Valentina shifted her head to gaze at me "Please I need to see them to  relieve myself from them permanently" She pleaded with her swollen red eyeball.

"If its for closure then okay. I'll arrange a lunch with them tomorrow at a restaurant but am coming with you. If that's okay with you?" I asked her getting a nod back in reply.

Still staring at her I couldn't help but kiss her lips. At the first touch of our lips meeting the spark of electric I felt from it made me realize I hadn't kissed those lovely lips since I made a decision of not abandoning her nor the baby.

Parting her lips I kissed her gently trying to savour the taste of her lips with my tongue which tastes like mint of fresh breath caused by her toothpaste.

Her moan made me groan deeply finding it very sexy. I never will get enough of those sweet lips. My hands moved from her baby bump to her curvy butt that I couldn't help but squeeze feeling the sudden urge of desire.

I pulled back after some while taking a deep breath staring at her with dark clouded eyes of desire hers pleaded with mine to take it more further but I won't.

"Close your eyes and sleep. Today has been a really stressful day" I quietly spoke while I cuddled her closer urging her to close her eyes which she did. It didn't take long before she was knocked out.

At that I closed my eyes at the arms of darkness.
