His Bedwarmer’s Wife

“What do you have that I don’t have? Hailey Amaranth ex-Lewis, and fake Taylor, and the heart remains Lewis.” My heartbeat quickened. I don’t know if it’s because of anger, embarrassment, or whatever.

“Did you just come with me to insult me? Do you want a fight? I can give it to you.” She laughed as she touched me, but I slapped her hand.

“Don’t fool me, Ley, I know you. Remember I’m your best friend. I can still see that my husband is still in your heart.”

“Eat your husband, I don’t care.” I would have turned my back on her when she suddenly speaks.

“Is Ulysses the son of —”

“Kyla.” Kyla hadn’t finished what she was going to say when Hunter suddenly showed up. I looked at Kyla who was smiling and obviously hiding something.

“What do you want to say Ky?” I ask.

“BOOM!” she just answered then Hunter approached us. “I was looking for Ley, baby, you want to talk to her, right?” But Hunter did not answer and he only looks at me.

“I need to talk to Vice Smith. Anyway, bye Ley, bye baby.” Then she kissed Hunter and left us.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Psycho, I whispered while turning away.

“Ley, wait. Can we talk?” The electricity went out all over my body when Hunter did that.

‘Fuck Ley, don’t betray yourself.’

My heartbeat quickened and I felt an electric shock all over my body. I can’t explain my fucking feelings. Excitement, fear, love.

Shocks!

This can’t be happening.

“Something wrong?” I simply asked while removing his hand.

God!

‘You idiot Ley. He has no effect on you, remember?’

“Congrats,” he simply said.

“Thanks, you and Kyla, when?” I see him smirked then looked at Kyla who was busy talking to acquaintances.

“Not in the plan,” he simply replied then looked at Uly held by the nanny. “I’m happy for you and your baby.”

Fortunately, everyone is busy so no one notices us too much here Hunter. Even to say that we are not doing anything wrong still cannot be removed that we have a past and it is not good to see us talking alone.

“Thanks again, I hope you can make little Hunter too.”

“How I wish,” he said. “Sorry, Ley.” I saw the sadness in his eyes when he called my name.

“Why?” I asked while waiting for what he would say next.

“Nevermind.” Then he left me standing while waiting for what he would say next.

What’s wrong with him? he left me standing, while I am waiting for something.

Fuck Ley, you’re ok with Eugene, aren’t you?

You have accepted him as your husband and father of your son so forget about Hunter. He is no longer a part of your life and you have been separated for a long time.

I don’t know but I was hurt by the last thought.

I was the one who left him and I don’t care about him anymore. But why does there still have a part of my heart that I hope we will both come back together.

No way!

Eugene is my husband and the father of my son. He is the only one and more deserving.

EUGENE PUT Uly to sleep while he carries it because Uly sleeps faster when Eu puts him to sleep.

“Eu,” I call him.

“Shh!” He slowly laid the baby down on the bed and patted her softly on the ass. When he was sure that the baby was asleep, he came to me.

“Is there a problem?” he asked then he first walked out of Ulysses’s room. I kissed Uly first before following Eugene.

When I got out he slowly closed the door.

“What’s wrong?” he asked me when we were both outsides.

“I talked to Kyla and Hunter earlier.” I saw him frown on his forehead.

“And?” he asked without removing the wrinkle on his forehead.

“Kyla mentioned something to me but she didn’t finish. She asked me about Ulysses. I feel like she knows something about the—–”

“Stop.” He cut me off from what I was going to say.

“Eu.”

“Ulysses is mine.” I could see his mouth tightening and he went to the kitchen so I followed him. He took a beer and gulped down a bottle immediately and finish it, so he took another one.

“But Eu, in Kyla’s tone it is like she knew——”

“Stop Ley, for fuck sake.” Then he looked badly at me. “Ulysses is my son.”

“Eu, what if —”

“I thought we were ok? Why are you acting like that, Is it because of Hunter? Because you talked to him earlier, right?” He asked annoyingly and turned his back on me and entered our room. So, I immediately followed him to talk.

“Hunter is not involved in this and he has nothing to do with this conversation.” I tried to calm myself because Eu didn’t seem to really want to talk about Uly. I understand how he feels but what I’m thinking is what if Uly’s father introduces himself and what if Kyla really knows something?

Not only will I be destroyed but also Eugene and my son will be affected too.

“Why you are keep on talking about Uly?”

“Eu, you don’t understand how I feel.”

“Why, Ley, didn’t I fulfill my fatherhood to him? Tell me and I’ll triple the care to my son so don’t just rummage through his past.” I saw the redness in her eyes and the tears welling up so I felt like my heart was pounding.

I didn’t consider his emotion. I just only think about mine. Maybe if he will going to choose between me or Uly it would be easy for him to reject me but he would never leave my son.

“I’m Uly’s father, Ley and he’s mine. If you think I’m wrong for what I did to him just tell me and I’ll fill it in.” Tears flow from my eyes. I couldn’t speak to what Eugene said so I shook my head softly while bowing.

“Sorry Eu, I’m just scared for my son and you too when someone else finds out the truth.” I just felt him touch my chin he lifted my head.

“I was ready to kill when someone ran into my son and wanted to destroy him.” I could see in Eugene’s face that he was serious about the words he uttered.

“Eu,” I called his name and immediately hugged him.

“You and Ulysses give me another hope in life and I won’t let anyone ruin it.”
