Chapter 15 â Madelyn
The air was filled with the soft hum of machinery and the faint scent of disinfectant as I buried myself in work at the lab. My hair was tied back into a neat bun, and my fingers moved with practiced precision, measuring out a quantity of serum into a waiting vial. I struggled to stay focused, eyes fixed on the delicate equipment at my workstation.
How could I pretend that everything was fine when my life was in shamblesâmy world falling apart right in front of me? These thoughts wouldn't let me be, and the fact that I was pregnant was more than enough distraction already.
I paused, exhaling slowly, my gloved fingers massaging my temples as I yawned from exhaustion. This was by far the worst period of my life; I barely slept at night, barely smiled these days, barely ate, and nothing really excited me anymore. Why would it? I was drowning in fear and anxiety with no one to save me.
This was too much to bear alone, and most times, I cried when no one was looking. I hated myself for never stopping to think things through before acting on impulse. I had made a similar mistake with Ethan, and that got me in trouble. Still, I didn't learn my lesson. The very day the Ethan situation was taken care of, I walked into an even worse situation with my own two legs.
Ironic how the man who saved me from the Ethan situation was the same man responsible for my present predicament. I wished I'd listened to that silent voice in my head when it warned me against Kostya. I had ignored my instincts, my sense of reasoning, and damned the consequences of going to bed with the mysterious stranger that stole my heart. Look where that got me.
I hated regrets.
Normally, I was the type of woman who was always careful to avoid choices that might lead to regrets or what-ifs. But twice now, I'd let my guard down for men who, at first, seemed great. I should've learned from my mistake with Ethan, but what did I do? I allowed myself to get seduced and eventually got fucked on the same night I visited this strangerâs place for the first time. The worst part of this whole thing was that he didn't just fuck me; it was my fucking first time.
I moved from bad to worse because I acted on impulse. If I'd thought deeply about it, I'd have seen reasons to stay the hell away from that man. As if that wasn't enough, I now carried his baby inside me. This was all shades of bad, and it was weighing me down, slowly eating me up from the inside.
Lately, I'd been a mere shadow of myself, and even my own reflection irritated meâa constant reminder of the foolish, lovesick, horny girl who got me into this mess.
âHey, Maddie, you okay?â Becky's voice snapped me out of my thoughts.
I jerked my head and faced her.
