19 Birth Control

Lisa's P.O.V.

I racked my brain for a good twenty minutes, trying to recall if I had taken my birth control every day this week. I began to worry as I clearly remembered having one extra pill in my pack than I should at this time. My mind began to race with worry. I guess now was as good a time as any to ask Davis about future children.

"Hey, my Viking man, quick question," I called to him from the bathroom.

This was the first time since he arrived home that he had not been inside me. I felt so sore, but I didn't mind wanting him back as soon as possible.

"Yes?" He sounded amused as he answered. I could just picture the smirk on his face.

"Do you want more kids?"

Silence, complete and utter silence.

I found him standing by the door as I opened it. He had a huge grin on his face, grabbing me and throwing me over his shoulder. I yelled in surprise, but did not fight or complain. He threw me down on the bed, sliding into me again with a quick thrust. The rapidness in which he humped me made my breasts bounce all around. I moaned as my pleasure leaked out of me more and more, wetting the inside of my thighs.

"I'll get you pregnant right now, Lisa. If you want me to. I'd love nothing more than to have kids with you," he grunted, locking eyes with me as he spoke.

My heart felt calm at the assurance of his words. He wouldn't mind having a kid with me, and that was all I needed to hear to make me fully accept us. My good decision-making skills were thrown out the window as I spoke my next words.

"Then get me pregnant, my Viking."

Oh, the look he gave me.

It set my body on fire. There was such love, such lust, such hunger in them. It was as if I had told him I promised him my life. I guess in a way I just did as a kid would tie us together for all eternity.

The amount of sex we had for the rest of the day seemed almost unrealistic. I didn't understand where this stamina came from in either of us, but even when it was all said and done, I still wanted more. The area between my legs felt like it wanted to run away screaming. I was sore, so damn sore, but I had the happiest of smiles on my face. I was so full of Davis' cum that it seeped out of me all the next day, a reminder of what we had done.

I stopped worrying about my birth control after that. In fact, I tossed it in the trash. It was rushed and probably extremely stupid on my part, but somehow I knew having a kid with Davis would be the best decision I could make in my life, even if he and I didn't work out in the end.

It had been a week now since I found dad's ledger and Davis sent the pictures to Derek. I kept a close watch on dad, to see if he was doing anything suspicious. Aside from having meetings with the Darnell's almost every day, he wasn't up too much. I was curious about what dad was telling them that was keeping them from taking half of the company. I was just glad that I hadn't had to see Chris or his father since the last time I was at his house.

Lucas: We need to talk. I'm heading to you now.

His text caught me off guard. I have been slacking on my auntie/sister skills here lately, not having gone to visit them as often as before. Still, Lucas would have teased me about it, not sent such a worrisome text. I looked up at Davis, feeling nervous again.

"What's wrong?" He pinched his eyebrows together, having them meet in the center.

"Lucas said he's on his way, that we need to talk."

"Do you think he knows what we're up to?" Davis' eyes widened with concern, making me smile in amusement. I think it was the first time I had seen him nervous before.

"No, how could he?"

"I should probably talk to him about it. He may be your younger brother, but I feel he's your gatekeeper."

"Yeah, he's pretty protective, isn't he?" I laughed, feeling thankful for a brother like him.

"What do you think he wants to talk about, then?"

"I don't know, but it can't be good. It's either about dad or maybe Liv. I am not sure."

If possible, at the mention of Liv's name, Davis seemed more concerned. He pressed his thumb into his chin as he held it in thought. He was handsome when he was worried, too. I don't think there was a face he could make that would make him appear any less handsome.

"Is he coming now?"

"Yeah."

"Then we should probably get dressed."

Davis kissed my neck as he slid out of me. There was such a pain between my legs that I wondered if I'd just let Davis ruin me for the rest of my life. I walked rather funny as I went to the bathroom to shower. When I hopped out, I felt better, but it still hurt. Couldn't really say I didn't see it coming. It's hard not to be sore when you've had a dick in you for a day with brief breaks.

"If possible, I'd bend you over against the counter and take you from behind again. You're too damn sexy, Lisa." Davis shook his head as he spoke, as if it was a tragedy he found me so appealing. I smirked, feeling my stomach pool with desire at his words.

"If I wasn't so sore, I'd take you up on that offer instantly."

It didn't take long, after we went downstairs, to hear Lucas knock on our door. I opened it, finding his eyes pink. Something was definitely very, very wrong.

"What is it?" I asked him instantly. "Why have you been crying?"

"It's Liv," his voice cracked as he spoke, and his eyes watered at the mere mention of her name.

"You're freaking me out. What's wrong with Liv?"

In a blink of an eye, Davis was at my side as he heard Liv's name. He seemed tense, with a face full of worry. I pulled Lucas inside and guided him to the couch, making him sit so he wouldn't collapse on the ground.

"She went to her screening a month ago. She told me everything was fine, and that they hadn't found anything. I answered her phone today because she forgot it when she went to work this morning and it was her doctor. She said she had the biopsy results and wanted Liv to come in. I wouldn't let her off the phone until she told me the results."

I swallowed, feeling my heart race unnaturally as I waited to hear the god awful news I knew was coming.

"She has cancer," he said with a heavy sob. He cried so hard that I fell to my knees before him and held him tight. I cried alongside him, worried for him and for Liv.

"It's not a death sentence. She's been going to her screenings on time. She can fight this. It's Liv," I heard Davis reassure Lucas with his large hand over his shoulder.

"He's right. We don't know how bad it is or if it's spread. We're here for you guys, whatever you need." Lucas nodded his head, sniffling as he tried to stop his crying.

"Where's Abi?" I asked, realizing he didn't have her with him.

"With Hailey. I went to her first as Liv's best friend. I felt she should know. She took Abi from me, saying I'm too much of an emotional mess to care for her at the moment. That's when I came here, because I need you, Lisa. Leo has gone to see Rachel, and you're the only other person I can turn to."

"I've got you, Lucas. Whatever you need."

There was no way in hell Liv was going to die on us.

I was still laying in bed thinking about Lucas and the bad news he shared with us this afternoon. My feelings were all over the place and so were Davis'. It was eating away at him he couldn't do anything to help her. This wasn't something he could hunt down and fight for her, leaving him with a restless energy. It was leaving both of us that way, really.

"Let's go," Davis randomly said, hopping off the bed and pulling on some sweatpants.

"What? Where?"

"We need to work through this energy, so now's the best time to train."

I understood what he meant, hopping off the bed and getting dressed myself. We went down to the basement and trained until our bodies were drained of all of our energy. Davis then picked me up and carried me to the bedroom. Letting me fall asleep in his arms, utterly exhausted.

My phone buzzed incessantly, waking me from my deep sleep. The room was pitch black, so I knew morning hadn't come to greet us yet. There were a million notifications from my social media, coupled with texts and messages from old friends. Over it all was a text from my father.

Dad Who?: I warned you.

My blood ran cold as my thumb hovered over my notifications. He'd released the video, and it was everywhere, and I mean everywhere. There I was for everyone to see, breasts out and Chris deep in me. The comments ranged from 'that's hot' to 'I can't believe she recorded them doing this'. There wasn't a single comment that wasn't degrading or mean.

I've learned to push down my feelings to try to stay strong emotionally, but this was too much. I felt so exposed, more than I ever have before. My eyes pooled with tears and a sob threatened to leave my chest. I covered my mouth, trying to stay silent so I wouldn't wake Davis.

Natalie: Girl! What the hell is that video? Like did you know you were being recorded? Isn't that your apartment?

I had about twenty texts, all from different friends and acquaintances. Most of these people hadn't talked to me in a while and were now pretending to be close to get the juicy details.

Kade: As sexy as you are, I don't think you wanted everyone to see that. I'm sorry, Lisa. I don't know what's going on, but I'm here for you.

Corbin: Damn girl, if I knew how beautiful you sounded while being fucked, I would have tried to sleep with you sooner. Call me ;)

Avery: What's going on, Lisa? Why would you leak a video of yourself like that? I know that's your apartment, and your camera. I just don't understand why you would do something like this. It's disgusting and I really think you need some help.

Rachel: Tell me who did it! Was it your dad? Jesus, Lisa. I'm so sorry.

Leo: I'll find a way to take it down, Lisa. Don't worry, okay?

It was the last two texts that saved me from spiraling. I read them repeatedly, reminding myself that the people that truly know me would know I would never leak a video like this. Come morning, Lucas and Davis were going to throw a fit like no other. I just hope that I don't drag either of them down with me.

"That's it, he's a dead man. I am done waiting for the law!" Davis was fuming with his hands fisted at his side as he paced with powerful strides.

"Why didn't you tell me he had this video? I could have tried to delete it. I am so sorry, Lisa. Those cameras weren't there when I lived there." Lucas seemed so torn as he talked to me.

I could see he felt terrible for me by the way his eyes shone with pity. It ate at me to be looked at that way. After all, I had gone through to be strong, I didn't want to be looked at as weak anymore. I never wanted to see pity for me in someone else's eyes. That wasn't me anymore.

I was strong.

With that mantra in my mind, I sat straighter, pushing away my embarrassment and focusing on my raging anger for dad. I won't let this crumble me. My mind was set on bringing Dad down, but no longer through just his ledger. If he wanted to ruin my image, then I would do the same. I would expose him as the cruel asshole he really was.

"Lisa, what are you thinking?" Davis stopped, seeing the grin on my face.

"Revenge."

"Right there with you, sister," Liv smiled at me. She had been ready to take down Dad for a while now.

Lucas had told me yesterday to pretend that I knew nothing about her cancer. He said he would do the same until she spoke with him herself. He knew she would fight with him if she found out he forced her doctor to tell him the results.

He doesn't want her arguing with him when she should focus on her health. I could understand that, so I kept my mouth shut and my hugs the same, even though all I wanted to do was hold her tight.

When my eyes met hers, I had to try hard not to show any emotion other than the anger I was feeling for my father. I had an idea, but it would involve seeing Chris and Daniel again. I knew it wasn't the best idea, but it was the only way my plan would work. Someone would have to come with me, just in case. I couldn't take on three guys on my own, no matter how much I've grown.

"I know you told me all about your dad, but I still can't believe he did this. What kind of father even keeps a video of his daughter like that?" Izzy was lying on the recliner, with her legs dangling over the arm. The girl never sat right on anything.

"The sick kind," Davis' voice was as cold as ice as he spoke, chilling me to my core. He wasn't the gentle Viking before me. No, he was out for blood and I could see it in his gaze and hear it in his voice. He was done with Dad, and for just a moment, I feared what he would do.

"What do you need me to do?" Liv asked, ready for a fight like always.

The three of us that know her secret stiffened at the thought of her fighting now. She has cancer, and didn't need to be physically fighting anyone. She was going to need her strength for her treatment, whatever it may be. Davis went silent for a moment as he thought. I could tell he was trying to find the right words to tell her she wasn't fighting without giving away that we knew of her health status.

"You have Abi. Your days of coming into the rescue are small. We have more than enough people on this one, Liv. Sit it out and enjoy my granddaughter."

Liv seemed ready to argue, but then Lucas grabbed her hand and stared deeply into her eyes. There was so much said between them without a single word ever being uttered. Liv sighed, rolling her eyes as she caved.

"Fine, but I still think I'd be better off helping you guys out."

"She's right. I can't believe you're not letting her join, just because she has a baby," Izzy the belligerent, always finding something to fight for.

"Not now, Izzy."

Davis pinched the bridge of his nose, exhausted with all of this. His tolerance was low right now, and Izzy was really testing it. She seemed to catch on, as she didn't press the matter further.

Good.

"Let's just focus on getting this video down first," Lucas added.

That'll be a miracle. Once on the internet, always on the internet.
