Chapter 131: Chapter 131

I yawned lethargically and sprawled on my back, my eyes closed.

It’s been two months since it was revealed that I’ve gotten pregnant and the war with Rex happened.

Ever since then, Wyatt has made me stay at home to watch over my health and make sure that nothing goes wrong with my baby.

Being home all the time made me have so much leisure time.

Suddenly, the bed was sunken, and the familiar sandalwood scent drifted into my nose. Wyatt’s hand wrapped around my waist, and in one swift movement, I was sitting right on Wyatt’s lap.

My eyes flew wide open, and I wrapped my hands around Wyatt’s neck before burying my face in the crook of his neck.

I inhaled Wyatt’s musky sandalwood scent, and I felt myself calm down. Wyatt gently rubbed my back and waist as if to comfort me.

Wyatt held my chin gently and cupped my cheeks. “Baby, you haven't eaten all day.”

I opened my eyes and pursed my lips in a thin line due to unhappiness.

Somehow, all the foods I loved to eat in the past didn’t seem enticing, and I kept having worse food cravings.

"Doesn’t smell nice." It kept making me want to puke. Even though I didn’t speak my words, I conveyed them to Wyatt through the mind-link.

My eyes fixed on Wyatt’s face, greedily taking in the view of his handsome face. Ever since the fight with Rex, Wyatt has been extremely busy with work. Sometimes, Wyatt doesn’t return for a few days.

Even though Wyatt doesn’t want me to ask, I could guess that Oswald is still bullying Wyatt through work. “Hubby, Oswald… mmmhhh.”

Before I could complete my sentence, Wyatt’s lips captured mine in a deep kiss. I exhaled and wrapped my hands around Wyatt’s neck.

Every time I try to ask Wyatt about work, he’ll end up shutting me up with a kiss.

Wyatt continues to trail kiss my neck while I grip his shirt tightly, moaning softly. “Ah, hubby.”

Wyatt began to nibble on my neck while his hands kept trailing my skin. He suddenly separated from me and stroked my waist softly.

"It's been two months. It should have been stable now, isn’t it?” Wyatt articulated in a husky and deep dark voice; his dark eyes filled with desire were dangerously fixed on me.

Upon noticing the changes in Wyatt, my breath hitched, my body tingled in desire, and I gulped down. I knew Wyatt was talking about the fetus.

Knowing how clingy and intense Wyatt was, I still couldn’t help being surprised at how Wyatt was able to hold his desire for a whole two months.

In the past two months, whenever Wyatt's desire awakens, he’ll end up taking a cold shower to calm himself down.

I bit my lower lip and nodded. Just like Wyatt missed me, I also missed him a lot. My eyes turned hazy, and my cheeks flushed with arousal. “It…”

“Forget it. We’ll ask the doctor later.” Wyatt suddenly interjected and gently placed me on the bed. He stood up from the bed and attempted to leave for the bathroom.

My eyes widened, and my hazy eyes became normal. The doctor said two months, and it's been a few days since two months. What does Wyatt mean by asking the doctor later? Huff! He must really like cold showers a lot! As if I cared!

I glared at Wyatt fiercely and immediately turned my back on him.

Wyatt chuckled and wrapped muscular hands around my waist. “Baby, be good. It’s taking me everything not to take you.” He bit my neck and conveyed in a husky, deep tone.

“I don’t care. Take your cold shower.” I huffed at Wyatt coldly and pushed him away.

Although I knew Wyatt was caring for our baby and my health, I don’t know why I’m overwhelmed by anger.

Immediately, Wyatt turned me to himself and began to stroke my cheeks gently. “Now, what’s making my baby upset?” He coaxed and bit my earlobe sensually.

My eyes turned teary, and my face flushed at his actions.

“So seductive.” Wyatt groaned and inwardly let out a curse.

……….

“Oh, look who we have here. Arya is just talking about going over to spend the weekend with you.” Natalie expressed. She hugged me as soon as we stepped into the mansion, her face beaming with joy.

I smiled and tried to raise my hand to hug Natalie in return.

However, I failed woefully due to my aching and trembling hands. Immediately, I directed a sharp glare at the lustful Wyatt. It was all thanks to him!

All because I decided to help Wyatt solve his desire with my hand, my hands almost broke into two. I had to cry and beg repeatedly to make him let me go.

Wyatt’s lips curved up in satisfaction. I snorted at him immediately.

Natalie’s brows furrowed slightly, and she separated from me.

Seeing me take a glance at my trembling hand, Natalie’s eyes widened. She directed a sharp glare at Wyatt and chided him fiercely. “You still won’t miss the chance to bully a pregnant woman...”

“Something smells delicious.” Before Natalie could complete her sentence, I interjected with twinkling eyes and happily sniffed the aroma that invaded the air.

“You came in at the perfect time. I’ve just finished cooking.“ Natalie conveyed with a proud smile. She held my hands and began to lead me to the mansion.

Natalie suddenly paused in her tracks and stared at me with shock. “You’re a pregnant woman; how can you be so thin?”

“Maia hasn’t been eating properly,” Wyatt responded in a voice that was laced with worry.

Natalie told me to sit on a sofa, which I did immediately. Wyatt sat next to me, and Natalie sat opposite us.

Natalie’s eyes were suddenly filled with reminiscing, and she patted her lap. “Lena and I had a close friend who wouldn’t eat anything except some special dishes made by Lena or me." Natalie’s eyes suddenly reddened in sadness. She exhaled and changed the topic. “I’ll send the recipes to Wyatt.”

I found myself curious about the friend Natalie was talking about, but it was clear that Natalie didn’t want to talk about the topic, so I kept quiet. “Thank you, mom.” I appreciated and gulped.

“I have set the... Maia. Brother.” Arya exclaimed with joy and hurriedly hugged me tightly.

Arya’s hands fell on my flat stomach. “How is my godchild not troubling you, right?”

.

.

.

I rubbed my stomach and occasionally whimpered in delight. Just like I expected, not only did the food smell so deliciously, but the taste was also perfect. Just thinking about it made me drool. It’s been a while since I found food so delicious.

Wyatt wrapped his hands around my waist and poked my nose in amusement. “So happy.”

I nodded my head and smiled in agreement.

Recalling something, I tilted my head and eyed Wyatt, who was currently lying next to me on the bed in a matching pajama.

Most of the time, after watching me eat or sleep, Wyatt would leave for work.

However, seeing Wyatt's leisure act, I had a feeling that Wyatt was leaving for work tonight. “Will hubby stay home tonight?” I posed and tilted my neck in curiosity.

Wyatt bit my lower lip and sucked my lips sensually. “En. I’ll stay with you tonight.” He conveyed it in a calm and deep voice.

Hearing Wyatt’s response, my lips curved up in joy, but upon recalling what Wyatt was bracing through daily, my joy diffused.

“Wyatt, I’m worried about you.” I raised my head and stared at Wyatt solemnly. “I know you aren’t telling me anything, so I won’t be worried about what he’s making you go through, but that’s exactly what’s making me worried.” I expressed it in a voice laced with seriousness while staring at Wyatt seriously.

I grabbed Wyatt’s hands and bit my lower lip. “Wyatt, you know everything about me.” My face reddened, and I quickly cleared my throat. “Ahem, except for my past. Yet my husband won’t lay on my shoulder and tell me anything. We are a couple, and we’ll be getting married soon. Hiding things from me isn’t fair at all. Are you worried that I’ll fall for… mmmhhh.”

Before I could complete my sentence, Wyatt captured my lips in a deep kiss.

“You’ll want to see him. That’s exactly what he wanted—to see you. I’ll tell you at the right time. Trust me.” Wyatt simply conveyed to me in a tone filled with honesty and sincerity.

Immediately, I understood that Wyatt was telling me that if I knew all he was going through, I'd be provoked, and I'd want to face Oswald.

I beamed and wrapped my hands around his neck. “I trust hubby,” I whispered and placed a soft kiss on Wyatt’s lips.

“Is staying at home lonely?” Wyatt suddenly posed as soon as we broke the kiss.

I flailed my legs and nodded my head quickly. Ever since two months ago, I was prevented from attending class, so I could only stay at home.

If it were like back then, when I still had Asher to train me, I could have made use of this free time to improve my fighting skills. However, the hospital was the last place I saw Asher.

I grabbed Wyatt’s hand and quickly nodded. “Very lonely. Can I go to work with you? I promise I will be good. I can even learn how to help with documents. And if we return home early, you can help me with my training; how is that?” My eyes were fixated on Wyatt so eagerly.

Wyatt’s brows furrowed and his lips parted as if to respond with rejection.

My lips pressed in a line, and I stared at Wyatt with eyes filled with grievances. “I know you don't like me anymore. Hmph, you men are jerks. After carrying your baby, you don't care about me. Now, you won’t let me go out.” I began to ramble while feigning unhappiness.

Wyatt massaged his brows and stared at me in disbelief. “That's not it.” He retorted in a calm voice, yet I couldn’t fail to capture his agitation.

My lips subtly curved up in delight. Just as I expected, it’s working. I knew what Wyatt hated the most was making me sad, which is what I was using.

I lowered my head and began to shed crocodile tears. “You don't love me. You... Mmmhh.” Before I could complete my sentence, Wyatt shut me up with a kiss and only let me go after a few seconds.

“I love you.” Wyatt stroked my cheeks and proclaimed seriously.

I smacked my lips together and gave him a sideways glance. “If you love me, you'll agree.” I seriously expressed

“Ok.” Wyatt lowered his head and nibbled my neck, making me moan softly, yet I couldn’t fail to capture the most important thing. Wyatt had accepted my demand.

“OK?” My eyes lit up, and I turned to him with joy. I planted a kiss on Wyatt’s cheek and quickly burrowed into the bed. “Great. I'll go to sleep early tonight. You mustn't ditch me, or else I'll get annoyed with you.”

“I won't.”
