I Let My Father's Best Friend Taste Me Chapter 50
KAEL'S POV The sonogram with the red X was still glowing on Harlow's phone when I decided I was going to kill Silas Cole with my bare hands. I put the phone face down before Harlow could see it again.She was already shaking. "Kael. Who sent that.""No one," I lied. "Wrong number.""Kael Hawthorne, do not you dare lie to me in our engagement bed."Engagement bed. Hospital bed with piss yellow sheets and a fetal monitor taped to her stomach. She said it like it was a honeymoon suite in Paris.I handed her the phone. She read the text. Her face went white, then red, then calm in a way that scared me more than screaming would have."He was in my room," she said, quiet. "He took that sonogram off my chart.""I know.""He drew a target on our daughter.""I know, baby."She looked up at me, eyes dry and furious. "Find him. End this.""I will." I kissed her knuckles, right over that stupid paperclip ring. "First, I am moving you. Then I am marrying you tonight."Harlow blinked. "What.""You

HARLOW'S POV My father watched me beg for his best friend on live television and the first thing he said was, are you hurt. Not are you crazy. Not what have you done. Are you hurt.The TV kept playing behind him. My voice, soft and wrecked, filled the hospital room. Kael lunged for the remote and killed the screen. Silence crashed down hard.Julian did not look at Kael. He looked only at me, at the monitors taped to my chest, at the IV in my hand, at my stomach where his granddaughter was kicking like she knew something was wrong."Harlow," Julian said. His voice broke on my name. "Baby girl. Did he hurt you. Did he force you."Vanessa laughed from the hallway, handcuffed between the agents. "Oh please. Watch the tape again, Julian. She was begging him.""Shut her mouth," Kael snarled, stepping toward her."Kael, no," I said.He stopped, shaking with rage, fists clenched at his sides. He looked at my father like he expected a punch. Like he deserved one."Did you coerce my daughter,"

KAEL'S POV Vanessa Cole smiled at my fiancée like she had not just tried to poison our baby twelve hours ago. I moved before I thought, putting my body between Harlow and the door, the call button cord still wrapped around my fist."Get out," I said.Vanessa held up both hands, palms out, innocent. The volunteer badge on her blue dress said LINDA. "Relax, Kael. I am unarmed. I just want to talk.""You posted bail three hours ago," I said. "You broke into a maternity lockdown ward with a fake badge. That is stalking.""I walked in," Vanessa said, sweet. "Security is very sweet when you cry. I told them I was Harlow's sister." She looked past my shoulder. "Hi, honey. You look terrible. Pregnancy suits you though."Harlow's fingers dug into the back of my shirt. "What do you want, Vanessa.""Same thing I have always wanted," Vanessa said. "What is mine. You. The company. The name. My father should have had all of it twenty five years ago before Julian put a car around a tree and called

HARLOW'S POV The lights died and Kael's hand found my throat in the dark, not to hurt me, to keep me quiet. His mouth was at my ear before I could scream."Do not move," he breathed. "Do not make a sound."The monitor was dead too. No beeping. No green glow. Just black and the sound of my own heart hammering against my ribs.Somewhere down the hall a woman screamed. A baby cried. Shoes squeaked fast on linoleum."Kael," I whispered against his palm."Shh." His thumb stroked once over my pulse. "I have you."The emergency lights clicked on, low red, ugly. Enough to see his face inches from mine, jaw locked, eyes hard. He had something in his other hand. The call button cord Martinez had ripped out of the wall. He had wrapped it around his fist like a weapon.The room door was still shut. Locked."Mr. Hawthorne," the guard called through the intercom, voice staticky. "Generator kicked. We have thirty seconds till backup. Stay put."Kael did not answer. He did not move off me either. Hi

KAEL'S POV My best friend punched his son in front of my pregnant fiancée and all I could think about was getting Harlow's heart rate down. The monitor screamed loud enough to shake the walls and Martinez came through the door with security right behind her."Out," Martinez shouted. "Everybody out. Now."Julian stood over Marcus with his fist still clenched. Marcus was on the floor holding his jaw, blood on his lip."Do not touch him again," Harlow said from the bed. Her voice was thin but sharp.The monitor kept climbing. One forty. One fifty. Martinez shoved the oxygen mask over Harlow's face."Look at me, honey," Martinez said. "Breathe with me."Harlow's eyes found mine over the mask. I went to her, pushed past Julian, took her hand. Her fingers were ice."I am here," I said. "Right here."She squeezed once. The numbers started to fall. One forty five. One twenty. Ninety eight.Martinez exhaled. "Good.""Harlow, I am sorry," Marcus mumbled through a swelling lip. "Silas found me

HARLOW'S POV The phone kept ringing and I told Kael to let it ring and watch me flatline instead. I meant it. If he picked up that call and Silas hurt him because of me, I would never forgive myself, and I would never forgive my father either.Kael looked at me, then at Sage holding the screaming phone, then at Martinez trying to shove the oxygen mask back over my face. The monitor would not shut up. Thump thump thump, fast and wild."Answer it," Martinez snapped at Sage. "Or turn it off. You are spiking her heart rate.""It is Julian," Sage said. Her hand shook. "What do I do.""Give it to me," Kael said."No," I said. I ripped the mask off again. "Do not you dare.""Harlow, breathe," Martinez said.I breathed because the baby needed it. Kael took the phone from Sage anyway. He did not answer right away. He stared at the screen where my father's name flashed. Julian Vance.The ringing stopped. A text popped up on Sage's lock screen. I saw it upside down.PICK UP OR SHE DIES IN THAT

HarlowThe rope bit into my wrists. The headboard creaked every time I pulled against it. Kael stood at the foot of the bed, watching me struggle, his arms crossed over his chest."Stop pulling," he said. "You will only make it tighter.""I want it tighter."He raised an eyebrow. "Do you?""Yes."H
