Page 161 of Enzo

He continues to watch me. He isn’t buying my answer.

“I love you, Enzo,”I tell him. Not sure how many more of those I will get to say to him.

His face softens. “I love you too.”He winks at me before he turns back to Chayton.

“I saw that,” Liz says, stepping up beside me. “Is it too soon for me to say I told you so?”

I turn to my best friend with a smile. “Oh, so you’re going to rub it in?”

She laughs out loud. “Yes, I am. I told you I felt chemistry between the two of you. Next time you need to believe your best friend.”

Rolling my eyes playfully at her, I turn back to the crowd. “Where is my godchild?” I ask, changing the subject.

“Chayton recruited Rue into babysitting both kids tonight so that I could enjoy some time out.”

“Look at him being all sweet.”

She giggles and bumps my shoulder. “Don’t think I didn’t notice you changed the subject. I’m glad you took my advice and forgave yourself.”

Unfortunately, forgiving myself isn’t an option. Not with Markis coming for me. But I don’t tell her that.

I turn to Liz. “I need to ask you….” my words die down as I suddenly get dizzy.

“Michaela, are you okay?”

I fight to stop the room from spinning. The second it does, nausea coils my stomach. I grab my mouth and rush off to the nearest spot out of the sight of others. I grab hold of a tree as I empty my stomach.

Liz is right behind me, rubbing my back. When I’m done, I run the back of my hand over my mouth.

“Okay, that came out of nowhere,” I chuckle.

Liz watches me closely. “Is this the first time?”

“Yeah. I’ve been having dizzy spells here and there lately, but they’ve never caused me to get sick.”

Again she looks me over. “Come with me.” She grabs my arm and hauls me away from the party.

We aren’t far from the middle of town. She leads me right into Phaedra’s clinic. As soon as we enter, I head to the sink to wash my hand and rinse my mouth out.

When I finish, I turn around and come face to face with Liz holding a small white box.

“What’s that?” I ask.

She tilts her head to the side. “A pregnancy test. You need to take this.”

I’m shaking my head. All the memories of those yellow jars come crashing down on me.

“I don’t need a test, Liz. I’m not pregnant.” I go to walk around her, but she steps in front of me.

“Unless you have a good reason you can’t get pregnant, I’m telling you, these wolves got some potent sperm. I can almost guarantee you Enzo has been shooting up your club just so you can get pregnant.”

I know that as much as Zo and I have been fucking, any normal person would be pregnant by now. He hasn’t pulled out or used a condom not once. But he didn’t need to cause I can’t get pregnant. This would be the best time to tell her this.

“Liz, I can’t—”

“Take it. For me. Please?”

Letting out a sigh, I grab the box out of her hand. Look, if it will make her happy, I will take the damn test. It’s not like I can be disappointed. I already know what the test will say. I head into the bathroom to pee on this stick.
