Wisely,
Helena had separated the women. Gia and
Elizabeth were in one room while Laura and Emily were locked in another.
The pregnant women were her main
targets at the time, so she mostly left Laura and Emily alone.
Helena smiled gleefully when she
entered the cell for Gia and Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was tied to a chair, her eyes shining with fright, while Gia
laid strapped to a flat bed, her legs in stirrups. Tears spilt from her eyes as she realized what was about to
happen and how powerless she was to
stop it.
“Such tears,” Helena approached the
bed. She ran a finger down Gia’s cheek,
wiping away a tear. “Such show of
emotion Ms. Campbell.”
“Get away from her,” Elizabeth
growled, struggling against her own ropes.
“You two brought this on
yourselves. You should have listened
when I first told you to stay away from Nikolas and Lucky. But not only did you run away with them…you
got yourselves pregnant.”
“I don’t know what you’re planning
psycho granny but you won’t get away with this. Nikolas and Lucky will come rescue us,” Gia tried to put on a
brave front. Helena fed on fear alone. The best way to defeat her was to show just
how unafraid she really was.
“Oh I know they’ll try. In fact, I’m counting on it,” Helena stepped
away from the table. “It’s going to be
a grand reunion. But first, we have a
procedure to perform. Nikolas cannot
have this child. To do so would give
him responsibility that he’s not ready for.
So it’s best to purge the child now and as for Ms. Webber…the less
Spencers in the world, the better. Your
procedure will take place after Ms. Campbell’s.”
“You sick bitch,” Elizabeth glared at
her captor. “No doctor in his right
mind would do this without our consent.”
Helena’s smile was cold and evil. She opened the door to reveal a man in his
late fifties. He was medium height,
thin and with gray hair and eyes with a hook nose. “Meet Dr. Diator. He will
be performing the procedure.”
“I need to prepare myself,” the doctor
turned to Helena.
“How can you live with yourself?”
Elizabeth yelled at the doctor. “You do
know this is not our choice? That she’s
forcing this on us?”
“The doctor looked at Elizabeth and
then at Helena. At first he seemed
unsure, but then his face turned into an emotionless mask. “I have children in collage.”
“Well our children would like to live
long enough to go to collage!” Gia glared at the doctor, who in her opinion
wasn’t a doctor, but a murderer in the guise of a doctor.
“You may go prepare,” Helena dismissed
the man who only nodded and disappeared into the door at the back of the
room. “I must be leaving you for a few
minutes, but I will return so no funny business,” Helena wagged her finger
before sauntering out of the room, leaving Liz and Gia alone.
“She’s actually going to do it.
She’s going to kill our babies,” a tear slid from Gia’s eyes as fear
began to take over.
“Don’t worry Gia. Lucky and Nikolas will be here before that
doctor can start the procedure,” Elizabeth pushed back her own fear, hoping
that what she said was true.
