I Love My Enemy – Episode 11
Episode 11

Ella’s POV continued:
He carried the baby on his shoulder and pushed me in locking the door. “What… What are you doing here and how did you find me?” I asked in a low voice unsure of what to say.
He gently placed William on the bed and advanced towards me, I moved backwards till I had no place to move to.
He put one hand on the wall above my head and the other beside me then lean forward gazing at me.
He’s so close that I could hardly breath and his eyes are sparkling, why am I feeling so weak and thinking nonsense?
“You took something that belongs to me away, my child… And my heart” he said.
My heart is beating heavily against my chest, what does he mean I took his heart. He used his finger to brush my hair down my face giving me that tingling sensation.
I feel so weak that I can’t even move, could it be that my old feelings are coming back?
No it can’t be.
“I’m here for you and my child” he added.
Then he walked to the bed and kissed William, I saw fatherly love in his eyes and I became so confused.
Does he really love William like his eyes say?
But people say the eyes don’t lie right.
“What… What child?… I don’t remember telling you I took your child. William is my son, mine alone so leave right now” I said gaining my confidence back even though my stupid heart somehow is saying otherwise.
He sighed “Ella… I know I’ve hurt you a lot and we have a lot to talk about. But please hear me out and forgive me. Don’t push me away from you and my son” he begged.
“He’s not your son and I have nothing to do with you”
“Both of you belong to me…”
“I don’t belong to you! Don’t you ever think that” I yelled pushing him.
He held my wrist and pulled me close, I struggled to free myself but I couldn’t. “Let me go Gabriel!”
“I love you Ella” he said making me stop.
“What?” I asked unable to believe my ears.
“I love you Ella Marcus and from now you’re gonna be mine. I’ll work towards that and also we deserve to be a family since we already have a child together”
I scoffed “Do monsters like you know what love is? I doubt that, get your ass out of here right now or I’ll scream”
He chuckled “Scream, I’ll tell them I’m your husband and I’m here to get you and my child because you left home”
I hit him “Leave me the hell alone! We don’t need you… Stay away from us”
“I can’t stay away because William is also my son as much as he’s your son! Stop doing this I’m begging you please” he yelled before calming down.
Tears found their way to my eyes, “For months I suffered in shame and pain, you ruined my life big time. I begged you to stop at that time but did you listen? You kept f**king me like I was a slut… That was my first time, you stole my first kiss,
my innocence all because I loved you. Even before I met you I’ve fallen so hard but
now I feel nothing but hatred for you…”
“Don’t say that please”
“I hate you and I’m gonna have my revenge and destroy you… It’s a promise”
He fell on his knees and bent his face on his palms, he was silent for a while before I heard sobbing.
My heart melted immediately and I hate myself now, how can I be this soft.
“Gabriel…” I called.
“I didn’t mean to… I would never want to something like that on purpose… I was drunk…” He looked up with tears in his eyes “I know I have no excuse but please try to forgive me please… At least let me close to my son please”
I just stared at him tears flowing through my eyes, he held my legs on his knees. “Please Ella… Let it go. I’m sorry…I’m very sorry… I know you’re suffering and you went through a lot of pain… Please forgive me” He looks frustrated and pathetic, I felt so bad.
I suffered a lot, I went through trauma and a lot of pain.
But here he is on his knees, what I’ve always wanted.
“Say something please… I’m sorry, I’m sorry… For the sake of our son forgive me. I don’t want him to grow up and hate me… I’m begging you please”
I dragged him up and wiped his tears, then he pulled me in a warm embrace.
I don’t know how I did it but I hugged him back, his body is so warm and I didn’t feel like letting go.
“I forgive you Gabriel” and that’s the truth.
He hugged me again “Thank you! Thank you so much Ella… I promise to be good and I’ll never hurt you”
He let me go with that charming smile, I suddenly feel shy and nervous now that I’ve forgiven him.
“So… How did you find me?” I asked curiously.
Gabriel’s POV:
I’m so happy right now.
She forgave me, she finally decided to let the past go.
How I found her?
<<<<Flashback<<<<
I was just dressing up to continue with my search when a maid came to inform me of a visit.
I went downstairs only to find her mum sitting and waiting for me.
“Mrs Marcus… Good morning ma’am” I greeted.
“I don’t know how you did it but Ella called me. I’ve found my daughter. She gave me the address of where she is, but you both have a lot to talk about. You need to take responsibility for your child, she may never forgive me but I still have to do this”
She handed me a paper with the address, why did Ella go that far?
“Thank you ma’am” I bowed.
She stood up “Make sure you bring my daughter and grandson home, then you and I can talk”
I bowed again “Thank you very ma’am”
“Go there right now and bring them back before evening… I’ll be waiting” she said and left.
I came immediately she left
>>>>End of Flashback>>>>
Now that I’ve gotten her forgiveness, being a good father and finding my way to her heart is the next thing.
She carried the baby “I was about to get us breakfast when you came so…” “Let’s go together. Can I… Hold him?” I asked.
I know its kinda hard knowing I’m a father now but I feel so much love for the
baby.
My son.
“Yes you can” she gave him to me.
I opened the door and we both left for a nearby restaurant.
TBC…
