Chapter 7 A week later , I'd just finished breakfast and was about to take a nap on my king - size bed . ] Suddenly , there was a bunch of noise and commotion from halfway down the mountain - voices shouting and sirens going off . [ ] My heart started racing just as someone slammed through my suite door . I scrambled to hide on the balcony . [ ] " Nobody here ? " " Mr. Sterling said she's usually napping right now , never goes out . Keep looking ! " [ ] s . " I " If we don't grab her , the Hartwell family's gonna destroy us . " The Hartwell family ? Damn , Blake wasn't just some startup guy - he had a whole dynasty backing him up ? So I was definitely being held hostage . So But the day I figured it out , Blake caught my hint when I acted all gold - digger in front of Caleb . [ ] He only showed like 10 % of how much he cared , then walked away . [ ] Made Caleb relax and think he could test me longer by keeping me trapped up here . [ ] Probably gave Blake time to plan his counterattack . ] Though I had no clue what he was plotting . [] I just knew that after we " broke up , " he'd been testing Madison too . [ ] Acting cheap , dirty , bad in bed - and Madison stuck by him through all of it . Plus Madison kept getting picked up by Caleb's Maybach . [] She was probably Caleb's spy , planted next to Blake to steal information or something . All the weird shit finally made sense . [ ] I was breathing hard . ] ] The guys inside were still tearing my room apart looking for me . [ ] I looked down . [ ] The balcony was like a story and a half up , with bushes and shit below . [ ] If I was careful and slid along the roof edge , I could probably make it without getting hurt , right ? I covered my slightly round belly and made a decision . Only strong kids deserve to be my baby ! [ ] I stood up and was about to climb over the railing when sounds of fighting came from inside . [ ] Then the balcony door flew open . [ ] My heart was pounding like crazy . I didn't dare turn around , just swung one leg over the railing . [ ] Two strong arms wrapped around me from behind and pulled me back , along with a shout : " Raven ! " I gasped and nearly cried with relief . [ ] Blake spun me around and gripped my shoulders , panic in his eyes as he checked me over . er . ] Chapter 7 " Are you insane ?! You were gonna jump ? r "[ ] He finally wasn't wearing that delivery uniform . ] Black button - down instead . hair styled to the side , showing off his handsome face . ] Right now , those eyes were staring deep into mine . ] Waaahhhhh- I started bawling , threw my arms around his neck and buried my face in his chest.Л ] " Blake , I didn't want them to catch me . ] " Crazy girl . " ] He stroked my hair and laughed , then scooped me up . || Walking toward the room , he lifted me a bit . What've you been eating , you little pig ? I pouted in his arms . " Just the basics . Nothing as good as the DoorDash you kept sending me . " Blake raised an eyebrow . The basics ? You nearly bankrupted the guy . " Knowing he was exaggerating , I didn't argue . Snuggled into his neck and whispered- " Blake , I'm having a baby . " ]
