It was after two weeks when Grace felt something was wrong with her. Like she's so sick every time throwing up anything she put in her mouth, feeling dizzy all of a sudden, eating weird things, wanted to bask in Aaron scent or wanted to be in his arms, it's not like she didn't want before, but now she feels like she can't breathe if Aaron is not there she literally feels like dying whenever she can't see Aaron.
She becomes more sensitive, she will cry for every little thing, like one time she accidentally steps on a tiny aunt and sobs so badly feeling like a murderer. She feels like she can't control her body and her emotions.
She feels like hungry all the time and just wanted to sleep the whole day and never wanted to even pull a finger. She feels tired, even without doing anything.
She knows what's happening she can feel it but in denial because she's scared. What will happen if it's true?
And finally, after waiting for one more week, she took the test and cried her heart out seeing the result. It shows positive.
She tried two more times just to confirm when she's already confirmed even before doing the tests. But just to hope that maybe it came out negative but it didn't.
She slides down the walls and sobs loudly, she does not even come out of her heartbreak when Aaron dumped her after making love with hers. How can she manage another heartbreak? Why is the good so cruel, can't have some pity on her? How will she tell Aaron that she's pregnant with his baby when he doesn't even want a mate in the first place.
For goodness sake, Aaron doesn't even want to see her face. What should she do now? What's going to happen? She can't tell him. She knows Aaron will straightly reject her and their baby that's not even born yet.
She can't let her baby suffer like her. Her innocent baby has nothing to do with them. She will protect it at all cost, but she can't hide that from Aaron. Aaron will eventually know by the changes.
What should she do now?
She got up from the floor and stood in front of the mirror, she put her hands on her still flat tummy where her unborn baby was growing. She smiles with tears, still running down her cheeks.
"Don't worry my little sunflower, mommy will protect you." She decided she will protect her baby at all costs, even if Aaron doesn't want them. She will raise her baby alone, even when it's impossible because she needs her mate.
She was sitting on her bed, caressing her tummy while still sobbing scared. So scared she thinks her heart will come out of her chest. She was nervous; she didn't know how to tell Aaron.
Many scenarios were running in her mind, and nothing had a good ending making her more scared for her baby. What will she do if Aaron won't accept their baby? How will she make her sunflower come into this world without her mate?
She was still in her thoughts when she smelled the scent of Aaron, making her stop caressing her tummy, she held her breath, her heart thumping wildly in her chest, looking at the bedroom door. The scent of Aaron coming near and near, and finally, the door opened, making Grace gasped in fear.
Aaron entered the room, and his eyes fell on Grace, who was looking at him with widened eyes which held the deepest fear while tears were falling from his eyes.
"What, why are you crying?" He asked in the same cold and emotionless voice he talks to her every time which is not helping Grace's situation at all, making her fear more. One thing running in her mind is that Aaron will abandon her and their baby.
She stood up from the bed and backed away from him, hitting her back at a nearby wall, shaking her head trembling in fear.
"No p-please no...*sobs* please." She cried loudly, not caring for anything, just thinking about her baby. She was literally shaking in fear.
"What the fuck are you saying?" Aaron asked, annoyed, already tired from work, and this shit is Grace is making him more annoyed and slightly angry.
"P-please don't *sobs* l-leave us..... P-please I beg y-you" she was sobbing so badly that she can't breathe, her heart feels so heavy like a whole truck of mountains was resting on her chest.
"Look Grace, I am not taking any of your shits, I a--" she cut himself when he noticed something.
Grace was hiding her stomach with her both hands like she's protecting something, and that's when something clicked in his mind. He noticed Grace's scent; it changed, it became sweeter and almost addicting.
His eyes widened when the realization hit him and then......
He exploded.
He exploded............Out of happiness. Yes, happiness and joy. He couldn't believe Grace is pregnant with his baby. He's going to be a father. He always loved children and wanted one of his own, and when he found Grace bearing his baby, he's the happiest person in the world.He ran towards Grace, making her whimper in fear, she thought Aaron's going to harm her unborn baby but what he did shook her to the core.Aaron hugged her tightly. He wrapped his strong protective arms around her waist tightly but carefully as to not squish her tummy. For the first time in their two years of marriage, Aaron hugged her. For the second time in her life, her mate hugged her. First, when they discovered each other as mates when Aaron hugged her. She doesn't know how to react. She has frozen in her spot."Love! Goodness, I am so happy. I am going to be a father. I can't believe it."He called her love.. the nickname he never gave her. His voice is not the cold and emotionless that he used to
Never celebrate beforehand." God has something else planned for Grace; she has more challenges in her basket."Grace had never imagined that there would be a time where she will regret mating with Aaron.She never did before, even after what Aaron did to her. She never thought like that. She always had this hope in her that one day she will get her mate's love and attention and opened the door's of her heart for Aaron to come every time and anytime.She was ready to forgive him. Giving themselves a chance after knowing she's pregnant and her Aaron accepts her. These thoughts never came in her mind because Aaron's action never let her. She forgave him again at that time.But now she doesn't know what to do. She's happy, she's so pleased that she's pregnant, but her heart became so fragile and vulnerable that she's started to envy her baby. Her blood, her flesh.She hates herself. How cruel is she's to be jealous of her baby? How can she think about that? She's the worst parent for her
It's been four years now. Four years ago, Grace gave birth to a baby boy named Asher. A strong but beautiful boy. He's brilliant and clever.Many things have changed now and are for sure, not good. Grace has changed even Aaron did too.Grace is not a bubbly person anymore. She lost her personality now. She lost her smile; she lost her heart, her emotions, her feelings.She's not Grace who was trying to make her relationship with Aaron. She's not Grace who was seeking for her mates warmth and comfort. She's not that Grace, who was waiting for her mate. She's not that Grace, who was comforting herself telling herself a lie. She's not the Grace who once hoped for little things her mate did. She's not the Grace who hoped now. She's not the Grace who has been hurt not physically but emotionally and verbally. She's not the Grace who cried in longing and despair for her mate.She's not Grace without her soul which hid in the depth of her pain long ago. Weak and miserable can't see the disgust
Aaron, Well, where should we start from what he feels. Hmmm, how about let's go to the past and highlight from the day his baby was born four years ago.The most beautiful day of his life when he held his baby for the first time. His strong and handsome champ, Asher. That was the happiest day of his life.Two months after his baby was born, he started to feel or like realize things, concerning Grace.He noticed how things have changed. Grace doesn't talk like literally he never heard her saying anything. But he dismissed the thought thinking that maybe she's not feeling well or something and focused on his 2 months old baby.Time has passed by and little by little, he feels like there's something wrong. He can't think of anything, but every time he comes home, there is this feeling like-like, he doesn't know how to word it. It's so gloomy or sad?He doesn't know.But after ten months when his baby turned 1 year old, he felt something. He noticed that he couldn't smell Grace's scent. He
Day by day he's feeling something he shouldn't feel. He shouldn't be bothered if Grace won't talk anymore, or if Grace doesn't show any emotions anymore, he shouldn't feel bothered by Grace lack of interest, he shouldn't be alarmed if he can't scent her,he shouldn't be concerned about the distance Grace made from everyone, he shouldn't be bothered that their baby is always neglecting Grace and prefer him over Grace,he shouldn't feel bothered about Grace feels. He shouldn't fucking bother!!!!He's frustrated because he is.He is fucking bother by everything.And the big question is...WHY?He feels like clowning himself. He doesn't understand what's happening to him. He feels disregarded, gloomy but why. Simple...Because of Grace.He feels guilty without knowing the reason. His heart is scratching. His chest is sober; he feels like a criminal without doing any crime. What did he do to feel like this?He knows but just not accepting it like a coward.He came home after the long hours
He stood up after eating and discarded the dishes into the sink. He goes upstairs going towards his son's room first to check on him. He opened the door lightly not to make much noise and gets inside. He walks to him, smiling down at him, seeing his baby sleeping peacefully with an adorable pout on his lips.He caressed his hair, leaning down to kiss his forehead lightly. "Sweet dreams, baby."He gets up and walks out of the room, closing the door behind him. He walked to his room and entered going towards his closet to get the clothes.He took a long cold shower to relax his mind and heart, and wear comfortable clothes. He walked towards the bed and lay down. He looked to his side at the lump of his mate wrapped in a blanket far away at the very end of the bed.he signs remembering the time when they used to cuddle together"Aaron!! it tickle don't do that" Grace giggle adorably removing Aaron hands from her belly."But I want to talk to our baby," Aaron said and got to his business:
Aaron"He heard the cold deep voice of Grace. He was turning around from where he was sitting on the sofa in the living room with his laptop on his lap."Yes" finally after what feels like centuries he heard Grace's voice. It's been so long Grace tried to talk with him. It feels so good to listen to his name from her mouth."Asher has constantly been whining to go to the park" she informed him.Aaron's eyes sparkled at that, and he instantly offered."Yeah, sure we will go together and eat lunch ou-" her voice cut him off."No, I'm not coming. Just go with him" she coldly spoke with her usual emotionless face and went away from there without waiting for Aaron's reply."But-" he sighs.It always happens like this. Grace refuses to go anywhere he suggests.She is doing the same which he did to her."Aaron, can I come in?" Aaron stopped typing on his laptop when he heard Grace voice behind the door of his office door situated at the end of the hallway of his house.He sighs already annoye
Now it was one of those lucky days for Aaron ,when he can be in Grace's presence.And it all thanks to his little baby.They were right now sitting on the living room couch, watching a Disney movie as per their son's wish, or ordering to watch a movie together as a family.The little indeed prefers his daddy more, but he also loves his mommy so much, but his mama always is so serious, never smiling at him. She never played with him. Never praise him. Never cuddle him. So the little mind of a child thought that she doesn't like him. So he always subtly tried to spend time with his mommy. Who doesn't talk unless it's much needed? But at least he's in his Mom's presence, that's all the baby wants.He never dares to disturb his mama, scared that his mama will get mad at him.So that's why he forced his daddy to see the family movie so he could be with his both parents.Right now, little Asher is sitting on his daddy's lap leaning onto his chest, which was sitting at the couch. And Grace i
