Reluctantly, Dawn nodded.

"Okay…

"

Pia struggled in Caleb's arms.

"Set me free, you monster!

" she shouted at him and then slapped him hard on his chest. But Caleb had pinned her tightly against his body. He was in an ugly mood. He growled. No amount of struggle could help Pia. He took her to his car in the parking area, threw her inside and strapped her. Daryn and Dawn sat behind in the passenger seat. He started the engine and zoomed off to the hospital in rage.

"Drive slowly brother,

" said Daryn.

"My wife here is pregnant.

"

Caleb slowed the car a little. Pia attempted to open her seatbelt but the bloody thing was stuck in its place. How? What magic was this? Why did she smell so much copper in the air? Little did she know that magic crackled around Dawn's fingers on the back.

Daryn's lips curled when he saw his wife's hands. Her magic was flowing so beautifully. Her lessons with Quetz were revealing their true colors. Immediately he covered them with his only to get a burning sensation. He opened his mental link to her and said,

"Calm down baby. It is not the time to show your magic here.

" On the inside he was so proud of his wife for what she did back at the Silver Mansion. He was so afraid for her when Sedora started to show her colors, but the moment she froze, he became confused. And when Dawn said,

"mere warning

", he stifled a laugh.

Dawn lowered her eyes and managed to withdraw it.

When they reached the hospital, Caleb once again picked up Pia and marched off to the ultrasound room with Dawn and Daryn following him. It was late in the night, but because Caleb Silver had demanded an ultrasound, no one could deny. The doctor couldn't deny his request because even if she would have, the hospital Head would have forced her to come.

Caleb put Pia on her feet.

The doctor was bewildered. Something was very wrong and she dare ask what it was, but she asked,

"Why do you need an ultrasound? She just miscarried.

"

Caleb snarled and narrowed his eyes.

"How do you know she miscarried? Did you do her ultrasound?

"

The doctor shook her head.

"No, Mrs. Silver didn't allow me to do that and I understand her sentiments. I just prescribed her medicines.

" She looked at Pia who was now pale as a ghost. Her breathing was ragged.

"So you didn't undergo the basic procedure and just prescribed her medicines?

" asked Caleb.

"Like I said, I wanted to, but she denied. I also have a form for the same signed by her,

" she replied with confidence. Then she frowned.

"Have some complications arose?

" If that was the case, then her job was at stake. The Silvers were too powerful to commit a mistake. Who knew that they might be the owners of this hospital too? They were wealthy beyond imagination and had too many businesses. She shuddered.

Dawn stepped in.

"Well, can you just do the ultrasound?

"

"You bitch!

" shouted Pia.

"You are the one who started this fiasco. You want to fight me!

" This was the only chance she was left with. If she didn't make the most of it, she was going to get butchered by her husband. His rage was pouring out from every part of his body. She started to leave.

"Enough of this drama. I am leaving. You cannot force me to go for an ultrasound. If you will, then I am going to sue you. You cannot subject me to mental torture, for if you do, I am going to sue you so heavily that you would be left with no money!

" She threatened and knew that this threat would make them back off. Laws were so strict in the country for the females and it was about time to take advantage of them. She turned towards the door with her chin up.

Dawn sighed.

But Caleb held her immediately and pulled her back.

"No baby, I am not forcing you at all. I just want to give a face slap to Dawn. She dared to challenge your pregnancy, and I won't take it lightly.

"

"Oh! You are a spineless man Caleb. You have fallen into her trap.

"

"Then the only way to get out of this trap is to get the ultrasound done,

" he said in a menacing tone and pulled her to the examination table.

She struggled but she failed against Caleb. She had to concede.

The doctor switched on the machine and waited for the family drama to get over. She readied the gel and the probe as she watched how Caleb was forcing his wife to lie down.

Dawn wanted to intervene with her magic, but Daryn gave her a warning glance. This was public and magic was prohibited in the presence of humans.

Caleb pinned Pia's shoulders to keep her from leaving.

"Don't do this Caleb,

" Pia tried one last time.

"It is going to have disastrous results.

"

"I need to do this Pia,

" he said in a low gravelly voice.

There was no escape. The doctor moved her shirt up and splashed gel on her tummy. Then she applied the probe and started moving it in all the places where it was necessary to find the pregnancy. Everyone's gaze was fixed on the screen of the display where the pictures were coming. They couldn't understand a thing. The doctor scanned it for ten more minutes until she was completely satisfied and then took some pictures. After that she froze the screen to a spot. She said,

"That's your uterus. At this point it doesn't seem that you are carrying a baby. But that is because you miscarried. Also there are no fibroids or any other complications that you think are. Your uterus looks healthy to me.

" Then she frowned. She hesitated. She moved the probe over her stomach a little more.

"I— I don't see any signs of miscarriage… no abrasions… your womb is healthy as it should be…

" She gulped. What was going on? Her face became white as blood drained.

"How is this possible?

" she said. She became frantic.

"What is possible? What are you saying doctor?

" asked Caleb.

"Your wife doesn't show signs of miscarriage,

" she replied.

"And pregnancy?

"

"None. However, these tests are subjective. Though her bladder is full and I can see it clearly.

"

Caleb left Pia's shoulder. The truth was out. Everything shattered.

"Manipulative… I was manipulated,

" he muttered. His mind went in turmoil.

"Thank you doctor,

" he said with as much alacrity as possible, and walked out of the room.

The doctor gave tissue paper to Pia to wipe off the gel.

"Mrs. Silver, your uterus is healthy. I am pretty shocked…

"

Pia gave her an ugly look and then got up from the table. Her plan would fail so miserably, she didn't know. She looked at Dawn with so much hostility that she could kill her right now. She had so carefully planned to bring her down. The kind of mental stress she had given to Dawn, she was sure that she would miscarry. It was a perfect plan. But this neotide was beyond her control. She had never seen purebloods that were so determined and this little female neotide had given her nightmares upon nightmares.
