'One year Later'.
"Bae! I think we need to rest now, it's already getting late!". Merritt said while snuggling towards her husband Franklin."Yeah, you have to rest my love!". Franklin said while patting his wife's head.She closed her eyes and quickly drifted into sleep.Franklin stares at his wife's beautiful face before smiling. As the reflection of the moon kissed her face, his wife Merritt became more beautiful and adorable.Franklin was still admiring the beauty of his wife when he realized that something seemed off.Merritt was frowning in her sleep and she seemed to be struggling for her life.She was sweating all over her body, even though the air conditioner in the room was working very fine."Love, are you alright?". Franklin asked while trying to wake his wife up. "Love please wake up!". Franklin pleaded with an audible voice."Ahh!!". Merritt screamed while rising from the bed. "Franklin, please help me…... I'm in pain!". Merritt said while biting her lower lips, as she made sure that she doesn't scream so loud to draw the attention of others."Love you in…….".Franklin couldn't complete his statement because his wife nodded her head."Hang in there Love. Everything is going to be alright!". Franklin said while getting up from the bed, as he turn on the bedside light.Merritt is already due for nine months and two weeks. She's currently pregnant, and right now……. She's at the edge of giving birth.Franklin quickly grabbed his phone and dialed the number of his doctor."Hello, doctor……. Merritt is in labor!". Franklin said while feeling nervous."Ohh!. Please kindly rush her to the hospital, so that we can help her out!". The doctor said, and Franklin nodded his head, like if the doctor could see him."Mister Franklin, you have to breathe in and out Okay, because your wife needs you!". The doctor added and Franklin managed to nod his head before hanging up.Franklin kept his phone in his pocket before running towards his wife."Love we are going to get through this Okay!". Franklin said to his wife while assisting her to stand up from the bed.Merritt placed her right leg on the floor and cried out in pain because it felt as if she stepped on shattered pieces of glass."Hang in there…… I'll grab the wheelchair!". Franklin said before running away, as he turned on the light of the entire room, but hold and behold the wheelchair wasn't in the room."We left it at the hospital Love!". Franklin uttered out with a low voice, before walking towards his wife.His wife wasn't shouting very loud, and Franklin is aware that the only reason she restrained herself from shouting was because of him.Franklin was nervous and confused about what to do."Climb on me!". Was the next word that left Franklin's mouth."Arrhhhh!......... Arrhhhh……. O My God!!". Merritt yelled while pushing Franklin away because she couldn't hold in the sharp pain anymore."Franklin please……. I'm going to die if you keep on behaving like this!". Merritt said while placing her hands on her abdomen.Franklin nodded his head, and grabbed Merritt to carry her princess style……. But it was Damm unless because she needed her legs to be opened.Franklin had no other option, but to assist her in walking."Come on Love……. Just one more step to go!". Franklin said while assisting his wife to raise her legs.She was Damm screaming and at the same time yelling, like if she's about to die anytime soon."Hang in there love!". Franklin said to Merritt.They both manage to leave the house and luckily for Franklin…… His driver was around.He cursed himself for not yelling that someone should help him out."Drive us to the hospital right now!". Franklin said with an authoritative voice, and with that, the driver quickly accelerated the car engine as he drove away.Merritt was lying down on the passenger seat, while all that Franklin could do was shower her with sweet praises because that's the only thing that he can offer right now."Hang in there love…… you are going to make it!". Franklin said while caressing his wife's hand."You are going to get through it!". Franklin said as he uses his mouth to produce a breeze, before blowing it on his wife."Ahhh…… love I think I'm going to die. I'm already weak, and my eyes are hurting me!". Merritt said while closing her eyes tight."Please drive faster!". Franklin said to the driver, before turning around to stare at his wife."You are going to make it. You and my baby are going to make it. okay!". Franklin said with an audible voice, causing his wife that's in pain to nod her head."I love you, Merritt, so please be strong for me okay!". Franklin said, but the next thing that Franklin saw was the water that just burst out of his wife's body."I think my water just burst out love!". Merritt said while crying."Love please be strong for me!". Franklin said while crying.He couldn't bear the fact that his wife is going through so much pain, because of the seed he implanted inside of her."Franklin you need to be strong because of me okay!. I know that you are going to make it, so hang in there okay!". Merritt said.Franklin quickly remembered what the doctor told him some weeks back about when a lady is in labor.The doctor said that the lady would start acting and behaving crazy, which is exactly what his wife is doing.Since her water has just burst, Franklin becomes more scared because he doesn't know what to do.He cursed himself for getting her pregnant in the first place, and he swore that if his wife can successfully get out of this one alive……. Then he would make sure that she doesn't pass through such stress again."Merritt!. You are doing great, so please don't shut your eyes for too long!". Franklin said, which causes his wife to force her eyes open."Boss we are here!". The driver said while declaring that they have successfully reached the hospital.I gaze at the afternoon sky before smiling. Now no one idealizes Orlan away from me.I have a baby who's yet to be born, and I and Orlan are going to raise our child in a way that is loved by God, and we are not going to treat our children differently, just as the way my parents had done to me and my siblings. Orlan has been just a nightmare to me from my very first encounter with him. He appeared in my dream and pleaded that I should find him. Well! Who would have thought that finding Orlan is the best thing in life? Finding Orlan in the forest inside the coffin is just like finding myself. My husband and I might have gone through a lot. We argue with each other and later reconcile. Yeah! A true family isn't all about sunshine and rainbows. There are going to be d daddy and also good days, but finding a way to overcome each day with your partner by your side, is what makes a great family. I quarrel with each other, but our love doesn't allow our flaws to define us. I was ju
I was really tired to hear the bullshit that was coming out of Ashley's mouth, so without wasting time I pushed Ashley to the side, which made her quickly fire the gun. Everything seems to freeze for a second, and after that second has passed…... everybody began to scream non-stop. I was certain that if I pushed Ashley's hand away, then I would be able to take charge of the position, and I might as well beat her up. I only pushed the hand of this psycho individual, but I never knew that Ashley could be so ruthless, even to the extent of firing his gun. The bullet didn't hit anyone, which I was now happy about. The shock from the bullet and everything, made me place my hands on both sides of my ear. I never knew that being pregnant can also make the body of an individual change. I was still staring at the floor while trying to calm my breathing, but then I felt the hand of someone around my shoulder. Without turning around, I already knew whose hands were around my shoulder. M
"What the fuck are you trying to do with my woman?". Orlan was the one to scream this time around, as he made his way toward me. "Quit coming closer to Orlan! Or I'm fucking going to hurt your wife!" Ashley screamed, which made everybody present gasp in surprise. The music in the background has long stopped playing, and everywhere is so cold, and quiet. I became disgusted with what Ashley had just said. She even has the gut to threaten me or has she forgotten that I used to be a phoenix and a Luna of a great Pack? I frowned, and I was about to close the distance between us. Ashley wasn't staring at me, but she was glaring at Orlan, so I took this as a good sign for me to attack her as quickly as possible, which is before she would become aware. I was almost close to her, but then she suddenly turned around, which took me by surprise. Ashley glared at me with nice eyes, and I didn't even know where she had been hiding her gun, until she suddenly brought it out, and pointed it a
Throughout the time that Orlan was claiming that I might be due….. I at first believed him, because all the symptoms that I'm currently facing are also the same symptoms of pregnant women being due. Even though I have a feeling that it's all a symptom of pregnancy, I still decided to shove it away, telling myself that I'm I'll. Orlan took me back to the house that day, and shower me with love. He prepared breakfast, lunch, and even dinner for me. I know that he is very happy to spend the entire day with me, which makes him seem like the happiest man in the entire universe. We both cuddle in the bed and sleep while listening to the sound of each other's heartbeat. The next morning, I was so lazy to wake up on time, and before I rose from the bed, I saw that Orlan was no longer beside me. I sluggishly got my ass up from the bed, so that I would be able to use the restroom. I walked back to the room and grabbed a bottle of water. I have gotten so used to staring outside the win
Three months later!I gaze outside the window while maintaining a smile on my face. My hands are across each other, and I just couldn't help but gaze at the beautiful view that's currently in front of me. The view of the city is Damn beautiful, and it gives a feeling that even the mouth can't explain. I was still staring outside the window when I felt a strong hand wrapped around my waist, and l knew for sure who the person was. I slowly turn around and stare at Orlan, smiling. Orlan smiled back at me, and he planted a kiss on my lips, which made my smile grow wider. It has been more than a year since I and Orlan have known each other, but his kiss still does things that make my body feel the tingle. "Are you still feeling unwell?". My husband asked me, and I slightly nodded my head. I don't know why I'm feeling like this, but for the past week, I have been so lazy and I most times feel disgusted by any little thing. "Don't worry, okay!'' We are both going to visit the hospital
I frown my face in complete anger as I gaze at Ashley. She also stares back at me in anger which doesn't even make any sense. I was expecting her to plead and apologize for all that she did to my pack, but Ashley just has the heart of a devil. A stone heart to be precise. "Why are you here?" She asked while arching her brows. I suddenly have the urge to laugh out loud, but I can't laugh when someone who pissed the hell out of me is currently standing at my front. "This is my husband's property." I declare as I force a smile across my lips. "Husband?" She asked, sounding as if she had thought that I and Orlan weren't going to get married. "Yeah! And what's that...."Before I was even able to ask any question, Orlan immediately cut in. "You are expected to greet your elders when you see them." Orlan declares. She scuffed. "Is it because you are more than five hundred years old? What on earth makes you think that I would greet you? Besides, age is just a freaking number so I onl
"Go and grab a bedsheet and bedcover because you are going to spend your night in the sitting room." I declare out of the blue. "Huh?" Orlan mumbled. "You hear me correctly Orlan. Besides you have once insulted me that I should get my ear checked, and you...." I just couldn't bring myself to voice out all the hurtful words he had said to me last night. "Just quickly grab what I had instructed you to grab, or else you are going to spend your night with no blanket " I uttered, completing my previous statement. "Are you joking?" Orlan asked, and he had a confused expression all over his face. "You bet I am," I said while smirking. "If this is my punishment, then I'm gladly going to accept it," Orlan said while smiling. He immediately teleported out of my presence, and I'm stunned to see him reappearing with just a blanket. "Would that be enough for the night?" I interrogate them so I believe that he needs more. Perhaps a bedsheet to spray on the couch. "I don't even deserve to be u
Since I felt a little bit weak, I decided to take a nice hot bath, to cool my tense nerves. After taking my bath, I made my way outside the bathroom while being completely naked. Orlan had failed to store all my clothes in his room. I exhaled, making my way out of his room as I headed straight to my room. I grab a pair of trousers that frees me properly. The trousers belong to Orlan, but I still decided to put them on. I also wore one of Orlan's shirts and it reached me at my knee level. The shirt is White. "You look so stunning!" Orlan uttered, which was immediately he saw me making my way down the staircase. "What a silly compliment," I mumble while chuckling. Orlan closes the distance between the both of us. "I'm serious! You are stunning." Orland declares. I chuckle but decided to just go with the flow. "What have you prepared so far?" I interrogate. Orlan exhales. "I haven't prepared anything yet." He whispers, biting his lower lip. Currently! Orlan is behaving like a s
At night time, I felt my back becoming all soar, and I guess it's as a result of the fact that I have been lying down on the bed for a very long time. "Orlan I'll love to head back home." I declare. I and Orlan have been talking to each other, but still, I haven't forgiven Orlan yet. I had made it clear to him that he shouldn't keep his hopes up high. Besides, Orlan needs to learn from his mistake. He needs to learn that raising your hands on a lady is a sin. "But the doctor said that you need to rest." Orlan declares as he gives me a reassuring smile. I frown. "I can rest at home, so what's the difference?" I ask. "The doctor knows what's best for you Scarlett. Perhaps he has his reasons for making such a statement." Orlan utters as he tries to defend the doctor.I shift my gaze towards the doctor that's currently inside my hospital room. Arching my brows I ask. "What are the reasons that require me to stay at the hospital?" The doctor exhaled. "I had made that statement so th
