Present:- Alex was an emotional wreck by the time he arrived at the hospital. He had just returned home after a meeting with some clients and a couple of meetings when John called, saying Ashly was hurt, and the beta didn't even bother giving him any other explanations. Alex stormed to the hospital without waiting for anyone to show him the way. It had been two weeks since Ashly gave birth to Cecily, and the Omega insisted that she was healed enough to return to his work at a shop. Alex argued, saying, What if Cecily was hungry and needed to be breastfed?When they discovered that Ashly could still produce milk, both Tammy and Maya advised her that it would be more nutritional for Cecily to be breastfed instead of using formula feeding. Ashly countered by saying she had pumped enough milk to last Cecily the few hours that she would be away. In the end, Alex had to agree. The Alpha clenched his fists as he walked down the hallway to the hospital. He shouldn't have agreed so quickly
When they arrived in the bedroom, Cecily started to squirm in Alex's arms and her finger in her mouth. "Is she hungry?" Ashly asked. Alex nodded. "Yeah. It's almost her feeding time." Ashly sat on the bed, and Alex smiled when he saw that Ashly was sitting on her own side of the bed. The Alpha passed their daughter into Ashly's arms. "Uhm…" Ashly looked at Alex uncomfortably. Her face was slightly red. "I know you must have seen me naked a lot before, but..." she pursed her lips. "Could you…" Alex nodded her head understandingly. "I will be in the kitchen." Before Alex left, Ashly said, "I'm sorry." Alex paused by the doorway and turned towards Ashly. "It's fine. Right now, I am like a stranger to you." Ashly didn't know why, but she felt slightly guilty about that statement. She was glad, though, that Alex didn't notice it. After Alex left, she pulled up her shirt and expertly breastfed Cecily. She looked at her daughter and sighed. "I wish my memories would return more quickl
1 month later: Alex's bad day turned into a horrible one when he returned home after a customer appointment and found Jasmine lounging on his couch. "Out," he said. It had been a long and tiring customer appointment, and if his manipulative bitch of an ex-lover had returned from nowhere and was plotting and scheming once more, he wanted no part of it. "How did you even get in?" Jasmine waved a lazy hand towards a window. Alex was pretty sure he had been shut down when he left. "What a warm welcome," she drawled, raising her eyebrows. "I have missed you too, Alex." "What do you want?" Alex asked bluntly, not in the mood for games of subtlety. Jasmine pouted. "Don't you want to hear the story?" "What story?" Jasmine leaned back elegantly on the sofa. "How I survived all this year's," she said melodiously. "I expect you bribed and bullied some other Alpha into sparing you with the promise that you would disappear from the radar," Alex said flatly. "So no, I don't want to hear the
"Leave him alone!" Alex sounded deadly this time, but she was right; he couldn't risk using his power on her and injuring Ray. There had to be a way to distract her, get her away from Ray, and get her attention on him again. "Jasmine, I will give you what you want. You want me to go with you? You want me to-" Tears filled his eyes as he thought of leaving his family and leaving his happily ever after to go back to his wicked witch. "You want me to abandon them? I will. I'll go with you, but you have to let him go," Alex bargained. "Dad, no!" Ray tried to escape her and run to Alex to stop him, but Jasmine, despite having her full focus on Alex, still had a grip on Ray. "Dad, please don't do this," Ray begged, his distress sending him back into his teary eyes. "I will be okay, Dad, please," Ray promised. Alex stared at him, blinking rapidly. 'It won't hurt me'. He'd said it as a matter of fact, as if it were the most obvious and true thing in the world. Even scared, even while being h
"There's a bath calling my name!" Alex called back, grinning as Ashly shook her head. Ashly looked down at Ray and guided him to the sofa. "How are you doing, Ray?" Her voice was soft and warm. Ray smiled gently and shrugged casually, his eyes so big with worry that he couldn't really bring himself to lie. "I am okay, Mom. I was really scared; her hand hurt me, but Dad saved me. I am not scared anymore," he promised. Ashly kissed his forehead, brushing his hair back out of his face. Ashly looked at Ray, who looked almost shy, but there was a light in his eyes that Ashly didn't think was there before. She framed Ray's face with both hands, smiling softly at her. "We both love you so much," Ashly whispered. Ray's smile widened, and he nodded. "I know." Ashly kissed Ray's head before jumping and reaching behind her, where Rose was standing behind the couch. She squealed as Rose grabbed her and pulled her up onto the sofa. "Nosy sister-in-law," she teased. Rose laughed as Ashly tickle
It was a few hours past midnight, and Alex was in the living room, carrying a crying Ci and trying to get her back to sleep. However, she wanted her 'Mummy', which meant she wanted Ashly. He sighed. Ashly had returned home late, exhausted after performing her work on the shop, and Alex didn't have the heart to wake his wife up. "Shh, sweetheart," he told Cecily softly. "You're going to wake your mama up. She's very tired tonight, so just bear with your dad, okay?" Of course, baby Cecily didn't understand that and continued to wail. Alex sighed. It was late, and he has tried everything he can think of. He tried feeding her, changing her, and playing with her, but she just wouldn't fall back to sleep. "Come on, Cecily. You need to sleep." He was too engrossed in his crying daughter; he didn't notice someone was standing behind him until a pair of small arms were wrapped around his waist. "You should have woken me up," Ashly said, kissing Alex's neck before letting her husband go. "
23-months old "Why aren't you picking up?" Alex muttered under his breath. This was the third time he tried calling Monika within one minute when the first two calls went unanswered. He almost ended the call and tried calling the fourth time when Monika answered. "Finally," Alex cried exasperatedly. "What took you so long?" "I was in the shower," Monika huffed in annoyance. "Why are you calling me anyway?" Shouldn't you be spending time with Ashly and Ci or something?" "That's why I am calling," Alex said. "I am wondering if you knew where Ashly was. I tried calling her cell phone, but it went unanswered." "She left the shop hours ago," Monika told him. "She didn't mention anything about stopping by somewhere." As if she could sense her brother-in-law's worries, she told him in a soft voice, "Don't worry; I am sure Ashly is fine. I will tell Seth to look for her, okay? You just stay put with Cecily." After the call ended, Alex dropped onto the living room couch, surprising himself
Flashback continue:- "You're hard again already." Alex threw another glare at his wife. "It was your fault that we haven't had sex for awhile." Ashly dropped her hands and straightened herself before leaning forward to kiss Alex softly on the mouth. "I am sorry for neglecting you for so long." She moved up to sit next to Alex before undoing her own jeans. Alex looked at her with wide eyes. "Are we really going to do this here?" he asked, before glancing at the James family's house. "Don't worry, mom would be busy preparing dinner, and Adom and Monika would be preoccupied with Rose and Seth, respectively." Alex nodded, still looking in the direction of the house. When he turned back to Ashly, his eyes widened at the sight. Ashly's jeans and underwear were fully off, and the omega was leaning against the car door while preparing herself with her fingers. Alex could feel himself gulping his saliva, seeing Ashly flush her face, panting slightly, as the omega hole swallowed her two fi
