Leslie
Ben returned home as I folded laundries, ignoring the fact he was back since he kept me hostage in my own home.
“I’m home.” Ben said as he walked into the living room where I was folding laundry.
I ignored and proceeded with my work before he knelt down beside me and stretched his hand towards mine. I retracted mine before he could touch me before I held it securely and created some distance between us.
“Sorry I didn’t mean to scare you, I just wanted to help you.” Ben apologized as I stared wearily at him.
“Now that your face has healed,” Ben said as I touched my face. “Let’s go out for dinner. Just the two of us, I also got you a gift.”
Ben dropped a few bags and two boxes in front of me before he pushed it towards me.
“What’s that?” I asked.
“I picked out some clothes I thought would look good on you, we haven’t gone out on any date in a while.” Ben said as I pushed back the gift

047 My heart was racing, sweat falling down my forehead as I stared at my place of work. It felt new to me even though we had been apart for a month and a week but it wasn’t my return that made me feel like this, it was the response to my return. If I didn’t know the CEO and the situation of the company didn’t require more workers; I would have lost my job from my long-awaited absence but luckily Reina was understanding. There were few unfamiliar faces around and the familiar faces that saw me stared at disbelief before they called my name and I responded with a smile and a wave. I didn’t stop moving forward until I got to my floor where my team based. I peeped from the door and saw my team members including the new girl, Melody that was added to the team. Everyone was serious with work which was something rare for our team considering it was still early. “Campbell.” My heart jumped out of my heart at the sound of my chest as I turne

048 Azrael It was always the same, the same messed up cycle when I developed feelings for an omega but this heartbreak hit me twice as hard that I couldn’t think on what to do to make myself feel better or numb the pain yet tears couldn’t flow because it hurt him more than me. Ben and I are back together It made my chest tight, cold piercing in my chest in a manner that made donating it a tempting offer. My first love had been Lucas Bethan; my omega father and the one who birthed me. Everyone always knew of my great affection for Lucas, they weren’t too happy about it but Lucas… He was different. He embraced the feeling of being loved though my affection for him were always pure without a thought of wanting to touch him while still expressing everything sex would make him feel. It took a lot for me to understand that Lucas loved no one, not even my own mother, not even himself. It wasn’t like he was incapable

049 Leslie I was feeling a little nervous being here. Things were slowly getting better between Ben and I but Ben had suggested we see a marriage counsellor… I agreed. The counsellor came out with a stern look before she smiled awkwardly then it curled to a business smile and stretched her hand towards us. “Hi, I’m counsellor Ellis, you must be Bennett and Leslie Campbell.” Counsellor Ellis said before she sat opposite us. “I’ve been so excited to meet you after I heard about your unusual pairing… a beta and an omega. I apologize if how I said it sounded rude.” Counsellor Ellis said as Ben laughed. “All is well.” Ben replied before she smiled. “Relax and let’s talk about anything.” Counsellor Ellis requested before Ben and I stared at each other. “The easy question… How did you and Leslie meet?” “We met at college; I was two years ahead Leslie. My elder brother knew Leslie, always talked about him but

050 Azrael “Your signature will be needed here sir.” Sawyer said as he placed some documents in front of me. “Have you read it?” I asked as I picked up my pen to sign. “Yes.” Sawyer replied before I sighed on it and stamped where needed. “Thank you very much but you should be letting my assistant get used to doing this job, that was what he was hired for.” I suggested as Sawyer adjusted his glasses. “Things get done quickly and properly when I handle it President Bethan.” Mr. Sawyer with a straight face before I grinned. “Congratulations by the way, I heard you finally proposed to Raymond.” I said and he responded with a blush before he coughed. “Have a nice day chairman.” Sawyer said before he turned his back. He was going to open the door but stopped and was talking to someone before Leslie popped in his head with a curious look and I stood up. “Goodbye Campbell.” Sawyer said.

051Leslie“You are pregnant.” The doctor said as I raised my head in confusion.“What?” I asked in disbelief.“Congratulations Mr. Campbell, you are ten weeks pregnant.” The gynaecologist informed me again as I sighed.I’ve been having a lot of discomfort in my abdominal region so I decided to come to the hospital. There weren’t even enough symptoms for me to consider pregnancy because I wasn’t having any morning sickness like my first pregnancy.If I was ten weeks pregnant, I must have gotten pregnant from that time Ben forced me.I was very stressed by this news because right now wasn’t stable enough for me to have a baby and I can’t get abortion because it was against my morals plus Ben would really want this baby to be born.“You don’t look happy.” The gynaecologist said as my shoulders slumped.“I had a misc

053I was spending the weekend at Isaac’s place because we had decided to plan Ben’s birthday together since his parents were going to be present as well because they insisted.I’d rather have Jennifer spend a day in our house than have her come over and demand to stay for as long as she wants. My mood and hormones wouldn’t allow me to tolerate her especially if I had granted her long-awaited request.I opened the fridge and picked out the jar of pickles before I sat down the opened it. It didn’t taste right so I got up and picked out the peanut butter and dipped the pickle in it before I moaned at the taste.“Leslie, I need…” Isaac froze when he entered the kitchen before, he stared at what was in my hand. “Jesus Christ!

I sighed.“You should have a sense of decency to honour my burnt pot in full clothing.” I said as I took out slices of bread and put them in the toast.The moment the pot cooled down, I threw it into the trash and replaced it with a frying pan.I took the responsibility of making breakfast as Cherry stared at me with a cat grin on her face.“Wha
