Chapter 29

Kai was getting impatient in the carriage. It was rushing to the harbor but he felt

like it wasn't fast enough.

Marcos : I guess it's not a good moment to tell that I told you so.

Kai : he clentched his jaws Yes.

Marcos : I didn't know she would run away.

Kai : Me neither.

Marcos : I...

Kai : Can you shut up, please ?!

Marcos : he rolled his eyes We're getting her back, alright ?

Kai : She's pregnant.

Marcos : his eyes widened From you ?

Kai : What a stupid question ! Of course from me. Bonnie didn't sleep around, she was always with me !

Marcos : Of course, yes. Wow...How are you handling this ?

Kai : he sighed I don't know. She just...She kept it for herself and wrote a letter. I don't know how to feel or how to process it.

Marcos : Pretty much how Bonnie must feel about Elena. Look we're going to find her and you two talk.

The carriage reached the harbor and Kai almost jumped out. Marcos followed

him closely. Malachai wasn't thinking straight and he was searching frantically.

That action drew the attention of some men.

Marcos : We should...

Man : What are you doing, gentlemen ?

Kai : Looking for a woman.

His answer created a few chuckles.

Man : Don't we all ?

Kai : Not any woman. A specific one. Long black hair and caramel skin.

They shook their heads.

Kai : Maybe she was dressed as a man. I...

Man : We haven't seen anyone. Get out of here.

Kai : No ! I'm free to go where I want ! I'll search all the ships if I have to !

The man groaned and punched him in the stomach.

Marcos : Hey !

Kai groaned and jumped on the man. A fight started between Marcos and the

men as well.


They couldn't know they wouldn't find Bonnie anyway. She

wasn't in the harbor but on a ship a little further ahead. It was anchored on this

spot to catch the tide. She looked at the city for the last time. She wouldn't

really miss London except for Josette. She rubbed her belly and left the

railing.


The next morning

Kai left his father's library and leaned against the door. Joshua was furious he

called off the wedding for good.

Josette : Malachai !

Kai : Seriously are you just waiting here to surprise me ?

Josette : No, I heard Bonnie ran off.

Kai : She did and not to mention with our child.

Josette : I knew that.

Kai : I don't have time to talk he shook his head and walked away

Josette : Wait ! she joined him I hope you're running after her.

Kai : Of course I am. I love her too much to give up ! I know where she's going.

Josette : What did Dad say ?

Kai : He disowned me.

Josette : Oh Kai...

Kai : he smiled It's funny because it's the first time you call me that. I need to go back to the ship and sail away before Dad takes it.

Josette : she nodded Then go.

Kai : Take care he hugged her


Jeremy knocked on her door again.

Elena : I don't want to see anyone !

Jeremy : But you need to eat.

Elena : I'm not hungry.

Jeremy : I'm going to come in.

She didn't answer. He left the tray outside and went in. The room was dark.

Elena : I thought I told you I didn't want to see anyone.

Her voice was coming from the bed.

Jeremy : And I didn't listen He opened the curtains

Elena : she flinched with the light Ugh...

Jeremy : It's time you get out of this bed.

Elena : No, let me rot here.

Jeremy : No way he knew he was crossing a line but he walked to the bed and took off the sheets

Elena : Hey !

He grabbed her and pulled her in front of the mirror. He tried not to think about

her warm body against his.

Elena : What are you doing ?

Jeremy : Look at you. You're Elena Gilbert. You can't feel sorry because he rejected you ! That's his loss. You're the most beautiful girl I know so it's time you conquer the world.

Elena : I...I...You're right. Call my maid, I need to get dressed.

Jeremy : Alright he let her go

She immediatly missed his body heat and watched him walk away.
