Emery is a sweet and innocent 19 year old girl with a dream. It all changes when she gets kidnapped by mafia leader, James. Will she break free or will she let love come in between?
"You're mine and only mine. Do you understand?" He asked walking up...
The sun's bright light wakes me up. I smile and yawn, stretching my arms out. Once I was done stretching, I had went to get up to get ready for my day but a strong grip pulled me back down.
I chuckled as I looked up and my wonderful fiancé was sleeping peacefully. He's so cute. I give him a small kiss on his jaw and I see his lips curl up into a small smile.
"You're not sleeping." I say laughing. He chuckles.
"Good morning, fiancé." He says and I just feel butterflies.
"Good morning." I say. I lay back down on his chest and hug him. He hugs me back.
"We need to talk about our wedding." He says pulling away.
"I know. I've been-..." I stop. I feel this horrible nausea and soon, bile rises up in my throat.
I quickly hop off of James, into the bathroom and puke in the toilet. I hear his footsteps and he holds my hair up while rubbing my back. What just happened?
"Are you okay?" He asks and I nod.
He gives me a glass cup of water and I took slow sips. I swished the water in my mouth and spit it out. I give the glass back to James and he takes it.
"You're not pregnant, are you?" He asks with a serious look on his face.
I know he's not ready to have kids yet but I sure do hope I'm not pregnant. I take a birth control pill every time we do it. I hope I didn't forget.
"I'm sure I'm not. Probably just something I ate yesterday." I told him, wanting to ease off of the subject.
"Ok. Let's get showered and ready for the day." He says and I nod.
We took a shower together. Don't worry, we didn't do anything. After our shower, we brushed our teeth. I took a little bit of more time left to wash my face and do my makeup.
I didn't wanna wear dressy today so I wore something plain and simple.

(^^^Emery's outfit^^^)
This is an exceptional look. I walk downstairs and James is talking to Maria and the other maids in the kitchen. Probably telling them what to cook for breakfast.
He looks at me and smiles, walking to me. He wraps an arm around my shoulder. He kisses my cheek and I blush.
"You look beautiful. As always." He says and I plant a little kiss on his lips.
"Thanks, baby." I whisper.
"Congratulations, Ms. Emery!" Rita, one of the maids, congratulate me.
"Thank y_" I'm cut off again by my words when I feel the same nausea and bile rising up in my throat.
I run to the bathroom and puke. I don't even wanna eat breakfast again because I'm scared I'll puke that up too.
"Emery." I hear a voice and it's Maria. She hands me napkins and I wipe my mouth.
"Are you pregnant?" She whispers.
"I don't know." I reply. "He doesn't want kids right now so if I am, he's gonna leave me." I panic. I sure hope I'm not pregnant.
"He will not leave you. Over my dead body. I taught him better than that." She says and helps me up off of the floor.
"I will buy you a pregnancy test to see if you're actually pregnant." She says and I nod.
I walk out and James is sitting at the table. Maria and the maids are all cleaning upstairs. James pull me into his lap, nuzzling his face in my neck.
"What's wrong? Are you sick?" He asks.
"I don't know." I say with a shrug.
"I hope you're not." He says with worried eyes.
"Me too." I say quietly but I already know what's probably wrong.
James had to leave to run some work errands. I threw up twice again in our bathroom. As Maria said, she bought me a pregnancy test. I stare at the box.
I follow the instructions and now I'm just waiting. 5 minutes. I jump once the timer goes off. I'm so anxious to pick it up. If I'm not pregnant, that will be nice because I know James isn't ready for kids but if I am, who knows what will happen.
With a shaky hand, I pick up the pregnancy test. I place my other hand over my mouth as I'm looking at it.
It's positive.
I'm pregnant. I have a little human growing inside of me. I walk out and Maria is sitting on the bed. I nod once I see her face and she smiles and pulls me into a hug.
"Don't worry, this is a blessing." She says and I calm down and nod.
"I'm just scared of his reaction." I say.
"It'll probably be a good one. I've already ordered pregnancy books for you to read. I know it will be a struggle but I will be here." She says and I nod.
"Thank you so much." I say.
"I have to go now, but I will be here tomorrow and you have my number. Don't hesitate to call if you need anything." She rubs my arm with a warm smile on her face.
"I will." I say and she stands up to walk out.
I'm home all alone, waiting for James to come home. I hear the door open and close. I look down at the pregnancy test in my hand as I hear his footsteps coming up the stairs.
"Hey, babe." I hear his voice coming in the room and I hide the test.
"Hi." I look up at him.
"Are you okay? You seem sad." He asks.
"I-I'm fine. I actually have to tell you something." I tell him.
"What's wrong?" He asks sitting beside me.
"I-umm..." I can't seem to get the words out of my mouth. I feel tears coming to my eyes.
"Hey, don't cry. Just tell me." He says lifting up my head. He has a smile on his face.
"I'm pregnant." I whisper. His smile falters and I look back down.
"What?" He asks.
"I-I'm pregnant, James." I say again.
"No, you're not. I asked you and you said no." He says and I could hear the anger in his voice.
"I-I thought I wasn't b-but I took a pregnancy test and it confirmed." I told him.
"I told you I wasn't ready for a kid." He says.
"This isn't my fault." I whisper.
"You forgot your shot, Emery! This is your fault!" He yells and I cry.
"I'm sorry." I whisper.
"I can't- I can't do this right now." He says in a defeated voice and just walks out.
I'm sad and a little mad at the same time. He should still be here to hold me and tell me that everything would be okay. But he just walked out and that's the worst thing you could do.
I lay down on the bed, cradling my stomach. My baby. Our baby. I smile, knowing that I will be a mother. That's all I could ever want.
I honestly do hope James come back home. He shouldn't have left me and I am pretty upset at him because of it. I close my eyes, falling asleep while rubbing my stomach.
**************** Emery's pregnant! Help me choose a name. (It's a girl. Another in future). I have a few choices: Amalie, Amira, Eleia, and Serenity
