Chapter 62: Infanticide
: Infanticide
Damien's POV
What the hell?!
"Giselle! Giselle!" Victoria and Killian shouted her name with worry etched on their faces as they rushed to her side.
Giselle cried out uncontrollably because of the pain that she had caused to herself.
I sat beside her with my eyes wide, staring at her in disbelief. I was frozen in fear when I saw how she punched herself in the belly, causing all this pain unto herself.
Giselle has been sitting beside me all this time, so Killian and Victoria didn't notice how she punched her belly underneath the table with full force.
I was pushed to the side as Killian pulled Giselle out of her seat to see what was happening to her.
I couldn't speak. I don't even know if I should tell Killian that Giselle just tried to abort her own child.
"K-Killian! T-the baby, m-my grandson!" Victoria shouted in fear when she saw the puddle of blood beneath Giselle's chair.
Giselle had lost a huge amount of blood already, but her leg was still bleeding.
Killian cursed under her breath when he saw the blood she lost and how she couldn't stop crying out in pain.
"Quick! Someone call the doctor!" Killian demanded the omegas.
"Don't mover her!" I finally stood up and stepped up to them when Killian suddenly placed her arms around Giselle to try to lift her. "The baby's life is in danger; we cannot move her, or else it might harm the baby," I spoke up when he looked at me.
Since I know what Giselle had done, I also know the things we need to avoid to stop the possible bad things that could happen. Killian was alarmed by my words. He instantly removed his hands away from Giselle and kept her arms to himself.
"Ah! It hurts!" Giselle's face contorted in pain as tears streamed down the corner of her eyes.
She had done this to herself. She just tried to kill my baby inside of her.
"Just breathe in and breathe out," I whispered to her as I reached out my hand for her to hold on.
Giselle did as I said. She dug her fingers into my palm until my skin bled. Still, I didn't push her hand away. I endured the pain for her.
Although I was angry at Giselle for trying to kill my child, I had to push away my anger and focus on the health of my child. I will deal with Giselle later after I'm sure that the baby is safe.
My eyes widened, and my breath got caught in my throat when Giselle suddenly pulled me close to her. I swallowed hard when I felt her lips brush my
ear.
"The life of your child is in my hands,
Damien. Don't do anything against my will if you don't want your child to get harmed," Giselle threatened in a soft murmur, causing a shiver down my spine.
"Y-You're crazy," I whispered back. Victoria and Killian are standing far from us and are so caught up in their distress that they do not notice us secretly talking to each other.
"You're going to kill your own child just to keep your secret?" I questioned her.
"I swear, Damien. If they find out the truth, you willnever have the chance to even see your child getting born. This is everything that I have. If I lost it because of you, I will make sure you will lose your own child too," Giselle spoke coldly with gritted teeth as she held her pain in.
"What happened?"
Before I could give Giselle a reply, I was pushed to the side when the Pack Doctor finally arrived.
Without wasting any time, he did a complete check on Giselle to check her vitals and monitor the baby's health.
"What is happening to me, Doctor? We were just eating when I suddenly bled out and felt pain in my womb.ts my baby alright? You said my pregnancy was perfectly normal," Gisette quickly interjected before the
Doctor could give his diagnosis.
The Doctor was taken aback by Giselle's words. He must have noticed that something was wrong while he was checking her vitals, but this wasn't his finding at all.
"A-Alpha," the Doctor said, facing Killian with a pale expression. "I need everyone to leave the room for a while. I need to make an emergency procedure to help the baby survive."
"Is there something wrong with the baby?" I asked worriedly as my heart pounded inside my chest.
"A-Alpha," the Pack Doctor turned to me in surprise. I took a step back when I realized what I had done.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
"The baby will be fine as soon as I have the procedure done," he answered.
"AAaaaahhhh!" Giselle screamed and convulsed in pain when her belly contracted again, sending a wave of agony through her body.
"We need to leave the room now!" Killian demanded when he saw the urgency.
As we left the room, a line of nurses walked in with equipment to help Giselle.
Anxiety gripped me when the door was closed on us. I stared at the wooden door, waiting with bated breath for an update on my child's condition.
Killian and Victoria are equally worried as well, thinking that my child is theirs.
I couldn't believe that Giselle had done this to our child. I never thought she would harm our child and hold him as leverage against me.
I need to take my child. I needed to take him away from Giselle to make sure that he would be safe.
