Lyn woke up in the middle of the night feeling hungry. This is the first time in her pregnancy that she woke up at half past twelve. She craves strawberry cake and hot milk but Axiel is sleeping so she decides to go downstairs and find it herself. She slowly leaves the bed not to wake up Axiel even closing the door. The lights in the mansion are on except in rooms.
Lyn directly goes into the fridge to find her strawberry cake but there's nothing. Her eyes begin to water, thinking that her favorite cake is not there and she can't eat it tonight. She cried without minding closing the fridge, letting the cold air blow towards her.
“Hey, why are you crying Wife?” Axiel ask and ran to her, closing the fridge and embracing her. His voice is hoarse, a sign that he just woke up. He kisses her forehead and caresses her hair and asks again worriedly,
“Why are you crying Wife?”
“I want my strawberry cake Hubby.” Lyn pouted while sobbing in his arms like a baby. Axiel wants to laugh but he can't. He woke up earlier because Lyn isn't beside him. He panicked, thinking if Lyn leaves him. He leaves the room and goes downstairs where he finds her, facing the fridge while crying.
“Shhhh, stop crying, Wife. We can order from pantries that are open twenty-four-seven. Come and let's sit in the living room and I will order it for you, just stop. Okay.” Lyn nodded submissively and open her arms, wanting him to carry her. Axiel understands what she means and carries her like a child and walks through the living room. Axiel ordered a strawberry cake, hot milk, and also coffee for him. Lyn scrolls on her Facebook while waiting for the order. Axiel watches what she is doing with a smile on his lips.
Lyn's profile was their wedding photo and her account is private. It would be better for her security and to keep her away from those bashers or bad people who are giving bad critiques. After half an hour, Lance comes in with their orders in his hands and places them on the table in front of them. Axiel stands and gets a plate, knife, and fork for Lyn and goes back.
“Did you give a bonus to the driver who delivered this?” Lyn asks Lance while opening the packed strawberry cake. The cake is decorated with sliced strawberries and placed on top of the pink icing. It is good because it is made two hours ago according to the bakery shop. It is for emergency orders like what they do. It is impossible to wake up in the middle of the night just to make an order and delivered it at that moment. It would be a hassle.
Lance nodded his head and said, “Yes Lady Lyn. Master text me a while ago to give a tip for the driver, which I do Lady Lyn. Rest assured that your order is my command.” Lance speaks softly to make her believe. He leaves after that and goes back to his work, which is monitoring the security of the mansion.
“Here Wife, eat and we will go back to sleep. It is not good to stay awake at night. I will wait for you then.” Axiel cut the cake and gives her a piece that she accepts willingly. He will order the kitchen to prepare strawberry cake every afternoon and place it in the fridge for Lyn's night cravings. He is lucky to see a bakery shop that is open twenty-four seven online. If not, Lyn would mock him the whole night to get her that. This moody preggy.
“Uhmmmm” Lyn hum and start eating like a child. She even moans to savor the sweet taste of the cake which makes Axiel uncomfortable. Her moan wakes his monster down there, between his legs. He can't help but complaint,
“Can you eat it slowly, peacefully without making any noise? You're making me hard Wifey.”
It's hard to control when your woman is seductive enough just moaning while savoring that food. Dirty imagination will accompany your mind, not kidding.
Lyn glared at him with a curious look and ask, “Is there something in how I eat Hubby?” Axiel let out a heavy sigh and shook his head. It is nothing to argue with, Lyn will always win.
Lyn finishes eating and Axiel brings the leftovers to the fridge and cleans the table. They go back to their room after Lyn drinks a glass of water to flash the sweets she ate. The next morning, Axiel woke up first before Lyn. He takes a shower and prepares his things and brings them to the couch together with the things of Lyn for easy access later. Get and go. No hassle to find where they placed it.
Axiel ordered Susan to bring their breakfast upstairs and wake up Lyn to get ready before their food came.
“Wake up Wifey. It's already morning. Time to get ready and go. Come on, wake up Wife. I will tickle you, hmmm, not waking up huh.”
“Hey, stop Hubby. Stop it please hahaha.” Lyn laughs while making him stop tickling her. She plans not to wake up early to tease him, to see his patients. How long could he take to wait for her?
Lyn surrendered, “Okay okay, I'm going to wake up!”
“Okay, I will stop. Sit in bed and eat your breakfast. We will go to your Province, remember?” Axiel stops tickling her and helps her sit on the bed leaning her back on the headboard. Lyn pouted and said,
“I want to wash my face and brush my teeth first Hubby. My bad breath.” she shyly said and offer her hands for him to bring her to the bathroom which Axiel willingly take her to the bathroom.
Axiel put her down and back hug her, like giving her support while she is doing her stuff.
“I can do it by myself Hubby. No need to support me.” Lyn demanded and start wiggling but Axiel didn't let her go and tighten his grip, not that tight that will harm their baby, just right to handle her.
“Don't be stubborn Wifey. Do your stuff or I will take you to bed without doing it. Now choice” he whispers in her ears which tickles her. Lyn let out a sigh and nod her head before starting to wash her face and brush her teeth after.
“Done?” Axiel asks after she with her face with a towel. Lyn faces him and gives a peck on his lips before saying, “Yup”
“Ahhhh!” she yelled when Axiel carry her in a bridal style and walk through the bed. He gently places her on it and covers her tummy with the blanket. To give warmth to their baby. Lyn pout her seductive lips, give him puppy eyes, and said,
“Hubby I'm not hungry.”
It is the truth because she ate last night and she didn't feel hungry now. Maybe later but not now. She didn't have the mood to eat. Axiel raises his eyebrows not believing her saying that phrase.
“And why not Wifey? It's not good for you to skip breakfast.” Axiel said in concern and also confused why she says that. She normally wants to eat early and then skip a meal then why she is acting like that now? It confuses Axiel because it is the first time that she will take care of a pregnant woman. Moreover that it's his wife that is talking about, her health and the baby also.
“Why Wifey? Are you not feeling well? Don't you want the food? Say it Wife why you don't want to eat, please. Don't make me worried.” he plead and sit beside her. Taking her hands and kissing them. His sweet gesture conscience Lyn.
“I ate last night Hubby that's why? I'm okay Hubby. Don't worry.” she coaxes him feeling guilty about what she acted but it's not her fault at all.
“You sure Wifey? Okay, what do you want to do now?” Axiel surrendered. He even raise both hands and didn't argue with her anymore. Lyn spread her hands and lay her body back on the bed before saying, “Sleepy Hubby”
“No Wifey, we need to be ready before eight. Don't you want to go home to your Province? You didn't go back there for almost six years. ” Axiel reminds her once again and sits beside her.
Lyn faces him and hummed, “Hmmm” before closing her eyes. She feels sleepy and wants to sleep no matter what, she didn't care about going to the Province. Her goal is to sleep until she's satisfied. Yeah, that's life to be called. Upon finishing humming the darkness envelop her.
“You gave me no choice Wife.” Axiel chuckle and go to the closet to get a comfortable dress for Lyn. A dress that's not too fitted for her and too hot as well.
After dressing her up, he carries her downstairs until they get in, the Van they are going to use together with Lyn's parents, and his siblings, Naomi and Joanine. Felisa and Ezekiel will take a car with them and don't forget the bodyguards they both have. They can't leave the house without bodyguards that will protect them. Being a billionaire is not an easy position though.
“What happened Kuya? Did eat Lyn feel not good?” Naomi asks worriedly when she sees Lyn sleeping in her brother's arms. Axiel place her in the seat and said,
“She's okay no need to worry. Just lazy to wake up and eat as well. Did Susan pack food for her?” Axiel assured them and ask as well. He ordered Susan to pack food for Lyn after he change Lyn. Surely, Lyn will ask for food when she woke up.
Naomi nodded and relax on her sit. The back of the Van has a U-shape sits and the drivers are in front. Their bodyguards were behind them with the luggage they have.
Mateo and Mary are watching the marriage photo of Axiel and Lyn even the prenup shoot and the usual photos of the two. It is compiled in a photo album that is customized by Lyn on her own. The photos have a duplicate that is compiled in a photo album but an organizer made it and it is placed in the living room of the mansion for visitors to see.
“Our daughter is gorgeous right?” Mary asks her husband. It is a great honor for parents to see their child in a wedding dress or tuxedo while walking down the aisle. Their responsibility will be given to the partner of their child but not all.
“Yeah, she's beautiful like you Darling,” Mateo said while staring at his wife. Lyn's appearance is a carbon copy of Mary. Almost Lyn's features are from her mother than her father. It's just her nose she got and nothing else.
“Really Darling? You staring at me, not at our daughter. I'm that pretty to you?” Mary asks while eyeing him. Mateo chuckle and say “Yes, Darling”
After hours of the trip, they arrived in Lyn's Province. The air is fresh which is so relaxing. There are trees around the mansion, a plantation of fruits, and a garden full of flowers and vegetables. You can think that living in Provinces is better than cities when you visited one.
“Welcome home Ma'am and Sir.” the maids greeted them upon entering the mansion. They are in line starting at the door. There are ten maids, one butler, twenty bodyguards, five security guards, and two gardeners that are working in the mansion.
“Manang, can you lead Axiel to Lyn's room so that she could sleep nicely and for Axiel to take a rest as well,” Mary instructed Manang Abby, the mayordoma of the mansion. The maids get their baggage and bring in each room assigned to them.
“Of course Ma'am. This way Sir.” Manang Abby leads the way and Axiel follows her. Lyn is in his arm that is sleeping peacefully until now. She woke up earlier and eat a little bit and sleep again. Is it normal for a pregnant woman to feel sleepy all the time? Axiel thought of himself.
“This is the room of Lady Lyn, Sir.” they stop at a color violet door and she opens it for them.
“Thank you” Axiel respectively said to Manang Abby and carried Lyn inside placing her to bed before tucking her in the blanket.
Manang Abby left after that and leave the two inside the room to take a rest. Seeing her dearly that she take care before. She is a nanny of Lyn before who take care of her until Lyn grow up and now, she become the mayordoma
of this mansion. Seeing her again and now Lyn is married made her very happy. Giving the responsibility to Lyn's husband to take care of her makes her comfortable.
“Please prepare the lunch and we will eat, Manang Abby,” Mary said to her and she nod before going to the kitchen to instruct the maids to prepare the table.
They are in the living room while waiting for Manang Lori's signal that the table is ready so they could eat. Axiel and Lyn could eat when they woke up.
Just a minute, Manang Abby came and tell them, “Ma'am the table is ready. You can eat now? Will I wake up Lady Lyn and her husband?”
Mary shook her head and said, “Let them rest Manang. Come and let us eat. I tell them to cook our best dishes here in Province. I'm sure you guys will like it.” she invite them into the kitchen after answering Manang Abby.
They all nodded and smiled at her after following her into the dining area. Surely, the dishes that is prepared were not familiar to them but the smell was inviting to them.
“It would be our first time to taste dishes that are made here in the Province, right Joanine?” Naomi said with a big smile. You can see the amazement in her eyes.
“Yup. Just seeing it invites me to devore them. We have a lot to enjoy here I guess and I'm excited about it.” Joanine agreed to what Naomi said and giggled out of excitement.
“Yeah so that we eat first so we could take a rest and we will tour you guys in the whole plantation. We will pick some fruits too, fresh from the tree or plant.” Mateo said to stop the conversation so they could eat and rest already, their travel is so tiring.
They sit and eat while telling stories to each other and go upstairs to arrange their things. The maids accompanied them to their rooms. Now, the mansion will be noisy again because it has visitors again. The long time of quietness end now. When Lyn leaves the mansion, it starts to lose its life. The noise leaves the mansion quiet and now it is back and its life came back again.
