AmanahAfter Miall woke up, he had to stay at the hospital for an extra day to ensure his vitals were stable. Malakhi offered to stay with him, and Anin dragged me to her house.Where she made sure I ate...a lot. Not that I was complaining, but I had to say the most exciting part of staying with Anin was all the sleep I caught up on.The woman was a pregnancy guru; once she put me into the perfect position to sleep, I was gone. She put down a pillow to put my leg over and instructed me to sleep on my left side. I was pretty sure I snored and farted a couple of times, but Anin did not complain.She was reluctant to have me return to Miall's house, and I understood wholeheartedly. I had been ignorant of my surroundings and gave into fantasy, which had been nothing but horror, not entirely, but I had been fooling myself with the idea of things getting better.I sat in the kitchen, mindlessly stirring my cold tea."Good morning," Miall greeted softly, and I turned to greet him.“Good morni
Why does it feel like I'm doing community service? Had I been probably arrested, and yet I never realised it? All this training felt like a punishment for something I did, but I couldn't even think of something bad.I mean, there might be a few things I had done before that would fill at least five pages back to back, but it wasn't so extreme for me to be working like this. I thought I was supposed to be in paradise here!Resting, and everyone else would be tending to me. But no, I had to train to become Luna!"Luna, Luna!" One of the kids ran toward me, holding a paper against his chest. "Yes, Shawn?" I answered, leaning forward as much as my heavy belly allowed me. My cheeks ached from smiling so much. Every single day, it was something new, with school involved. Michael wasn't sweet about his lessons either; the closer the date drew, the more the pressure grew...lucky me."What do you have there?" I asked, pointing to the paper, and he grinned, looking up at me. "I made a drawing
My door opened as I cried, and something was thrown onto my lap. I saw Miall close my door before jogging to his side. I looked down at my lap, and a paper bag sat there.Did he get me something? Oh, I fall in love with him every single day.Without waiting for him, I opened the bag, and I was surprised he got me the pet! Although it was a teddy dragon. My lips slowly folded into a smile before I started laughing."Thanks," I whispered as I looked at the black dragon with strips of gold lining around it. It was so cute, and I loved it already. I sniffled as I felt the tears well up in my eyes; if this wasn't an action of love, I had no idea what else could be.It was big enough to fit my whole lap, and for me to hug it while I slept, well it wasn't like those huge lifesize bears, but it was great enough.Miall drove to his next destination, and I slowly fell asleep when he left the car. This time, he came back with flowers. It was a huge bouquet, but I wasn't a fan of flowers; I guess
"Are you sure you don't want to know the baby's gender?" Anin asked as she wiped my belly."Positive, surprise us," I smiled as I sat up straight with Miall's help."Why do you guys need to have this party again?" He asked. I had to resist the urge to roll my eyes. Men."It's a thing human mothers do. Besides, I think it will be fun," Anin shrugged as she sat behind her desk. "I have a few fun ideas on how we can do the gender reveal.""Do they involve sex positions?" I asked excitedly as I leaned forward."No," Anin responded with her eyes as huge as saucers. "Don't ask questions about the party, but instead, let's talk about what happens now," she said, and I pouted, crossing my arms over my shoulder."You know, you're the only one who lo—" Miall covered my mouth, and I looked at him from the corner of my eye."You were saying?" He looked at Anin."Uhm, it's good that you started exercising for several reasons. It will definitely benefit you when it's time for you to give birth. You
Third Person"I wasn't sure what to get you, so I just brought everything we ha—you're sleeping already?" Miall trailed off as he saw Amanah's body curled up; her breathing was evened.Before joining her on the ground, he put the snacks into a basket. He propped his head up with his hand and watched Amanah as she slept."Isn't this being a little creepy?" Orion asked as he joined Miall; their eye colour had changed into grey, proving they were one.Before they went to the trial, they couldn't be one for long periods; however, now they could switch or stay as one for as long as they needed to.Amanah still had no idea how different he was when they were both in control, which was why they agreed to present themselves individually when they were around her."If it's creepy, what are you doing here?" Miall asked back, and Orion smiled. They touched Amanah's forehead, pushing back the locks that had fallen out of her bun. They both knew she would complain once she woke up because she didn'
It had been over a few days since I had seen Miall's package, and I had not yet recovered.Not because of its size or anything like that, but because it was all there, hovering over me, and I freaked out!I not only freaked out but also resorted to avoiding him because it's way better that way. Every time I got a whiff of him or even saw his shadow, I got excited. Too excited, I'll admit.My breasts became painfully stiff, but I'd blame that on the third trimester. My lower region tingled, and I had to fight myself from moaning.He was making it hard for me just to live! I said I had resorted to avoiding him, but that was a failure because the man was everywhere I was.The only time we were ever apart from each other was when I was at the nursing school volunteering or wherever else Nyleve took me, but that did not stop him from fetching me from wherever God knows where he was just because 'he can'.I was pretty sure Miall knew the effects he had on me, which was why he had made an ext
Third PersonAmanah and Miall sat next to each other on the couch as they awkwardly stared at the screen.Amanah tightly clutched the toss pillow, embarrassed by her actions from earlier on. This was not how she expected it to turn out. All her boldness has dissolved.Turns out, she wasn't feeling as sexy anymore.She turned to look at Miall, and he was already staring back at her; surprised, she turned back and stared at the opaque screen.Fuck, has he been staring this entire time? She thought to herself. Miall kept his stare trained on Amanah, studying all the little details.A beauty mark right at the corner of her eye. Her lashes were long, and would kiss the top of her cheeks whenever she blinked.The way she sucked in her cheeks and blew them out while pouting her plump lips. He paid attention to every single thing she was doing.Miall cocked his head to the side and spread out his arms on the couch; Amanah folded her legs underneath her and clutched the pillow even tighter."Ar
Amanah"And this way, they were able to complete the orientation. Do you understand?" Miall asked, looking at me; this was what I heard. "Gargle gargle, sheru shama shakes, hedi hedi faya."I nodded, looking right into his eyes."Wow, who would've thought you explain things in such an understandable way!" I exclaimed, smiling innocently. Imma fail. This man didn't know any better than I did. "So that tactic didn't work; maybe we should try something else?" Michael suggested as he pushed his glasses up, and I smiled, leaning against my hand as I looked at him."I totally agree," I whispered, and Miall pushed my hand down, making me sit up straight. I stuck out my tongue for him, and he blew me a kiss. I rolled my eyes regardless of the way my heart fluttered. "How did you learn in school, Amanah?" Michael asked as he sat down, crossing his leg over the other. "Uh, they read out of the textbooks and then told us to go study on our own what we didn't understand," I said, clasping my ha
