LOGINJARED'S POV
I patted my belly with satisfaction written across my face.Mother Juliana had spent a whole hour feeding me, placing different dishes on my plate until I had no means to swallow the food anymore.Father Leo wasn't any different either. He practically gave me all the meat from his plate. His smile grew bigger as I ate everything he gave, and to not disappoint him, I made sure to eat almost everything he sent to my plate.I drew in a deep breJAREDShawn, Cindy, Stephen, and I spent the whole afternoon in the hospital, chatting and playing games. Cindy left for an hour to bathe and change. When she returned, she brought different things for us to play with. The day was fun as we all laughed endlessly. Even Shawn seemed to let go of everything as he laughed happily. But deep down in my heart, worries still lingered. My parents hadn't returned the call and it had been a few hours already. I stared out the window and saw that the sky was getting dark. It was past 5 in the afternoon. I sighed wearily. "Stephen, how's Jarelle's health?" I asked, trying to distract myself from the depressing thoughts. Stephen dropped the cards in his hand and picked up his phone. "Ryan told me she was sleeping when he called me an hour ago.""Let's see if she's awake now." He said as he dialed Ryan's line. After a few rings, the call was answered. "Baby," Ryan's voice rang through the phone. "Ryan, how's Jarelle?" Stephen asked.
JAREDI stared at Sterly, who was still standing at the door, and gestured to him that it was okay. Sterly remained standing. A smile appeared on my face. "I will call you if there's anything," I assured. Only then did Sterly nod. He waved at Stephen and then turned to leave the room. I watched the door close before returning my attention to Stephen. My brows furrowed. "Did they say anything to you?"Stephen glanced at Shawn, whose eyes were already open, and he shook his head. "She didn't say anything to me.""She was chatting with Shawn when she suddenly received the call and ran off." He explained. Shawn nodded. "Her expression changed, but..." He paused, and a hint of contemplation showed in his eyes. "They don't seem scared or sad, though. It was more like they had something urgent to attend to."Stephen patted my hand. "They probably had something to do in the office." He might be right. According to Shawn, they didn't look scared or angry when they left. It must be s
JAREDSterly's words made my heart flutter, and with it was a hint of shyness. I looked into his eyes and gently bit my lower lip. "Husband," I whispered. Sterly's fingers tightened around my waist, and his body abruptly moved closer, staying between my legs. "Do you need me right here?" He asked. Sterly's eyes glinted with intense desire and love. The intensity made me unable to control my heart as it raced dangerously. I wrapped my arms around his neck and captured his lips with mine. Instead of replying, why not let him see my sincerity instead?I needed him. Right here. Right now. Raw and hard. Sterly responded, taking charge as he dominated my mouth and kissed me deeply. Moans escaped my throat as his hands explored my body, leaving nowhere untouched. Minutes went by, and our clothes were all over the ground. Sterly's fingers picked my nipples, playing with them as he sucked on my earlobe. My body had turned limp in his embrace. Shameless moans escaped my lips. Swee
JAREDThe next day came faster than I would have loved. Sterly gently got off the bed, seemingly worried about disturbing my sleep, and I secretly watched as he stepped into the bathroom. Honestly, I hadn't slept all through the night and was only feeling sleepy this morning. However, I had a great plan in mind. Also, it was the reason I hadn't slept all night. I climbed down the bed and tiptoed out of the room. I made my way to the kitchen, and as expected, there was no cook around. Sterly must have intended to be the cook this morning. A grin appeared on my face. We were lovers, and we had the same mind. But this morning, I would be the one to cook. Since we got married, I could count how many times Sterly had eaten my food. I'd been thinking of ways to make Sterly see my love and trust toward him. But wasn't good food the best way to enter a man's heart?From now on, I would be a good wife to Sterly and cook for him whenever I could. I stepped into the kitchen and pick
JAREDSterly and I said no words to each other as we dried our hair. After that, we both slept in his bed. I rested my head on Sterly's chest with my heavy heart still pressing down on me. I knew I had disappointed Sterly this time, and perhaps he wouldn't easily forgive me. He had never been mad at me. Even though we'd known each other for more than a year, Sterly had never shown his anger toward me. He'd always indulged me in whatever I did, but tonight, I finally broke that line. I made him mad at me...His unsteady heartbeat continued pushing against my cheek. I could tell he wasn't comfortable either. Sterly wasn't happy...A low sigh escaped my lips as I raised my head and looked at his face. "Sterly, will you continue being mad at me?" I asked in a low voice. Sterly's eyes remained closed. "If you don't kiss me, I will cry," I mumbled. Sterly's eyelashes fluttered, and his eyes opened. Our eyes immediately met. Seeing that, I blinked, and tears appeared in my eye
JAREDSilence. Sterly continued walking forward until he stepped into his room and gently placed me in his bed. He turned around and with his back turned to me, he slowly removed his clothes until he was left with nothing. My eyes flashed, happiness blooming in my heart as I stared at Sterly's perfect picture. Was he finally ready?Could I carry his child this time around?If that truly happened... Sterly would never leave me again. The thought alone brought a bright smile to my face, and the earlier fear dissipated like clouds. Sterly shifted his gaze at me, and his jaw clenched. A sigh escaped his lips as he turned around again. "I want to take a bath." He said, walking toward the bathroom. "You should sleep. Don't wait for me." My eyes widened. I propped my body up from the bed and glared at him. "Didn't you promise that we would do something when we return home?" My voice was tinged with displeasure. Sterly's fingers tightened around the doorknob as he looked at me. D
