Chapter 4 Meet The Love Of My Life

Daisy Pov

"Something's on your mind. You hardly pick at your food." Robert said as we had Lunch in the office the next day. 

"Nothing's on my mind. Just exam fever." I said with a small smile and he stared at me.

"I know you like the back of my hand, Daisy. Something's on your mind. Talk to me. What is it?" He asked and I sighed.

"You know, I visited Mother yesterday. And she said something that made sense. I've been considering it but I'm also wondering if it's something that's okay by you." I said and he sat up in his chair.

"What is it about?" He asked.

"Mother said we should adopt a child. It's been almost two years since we got married. She has a point, however, I'm worried about the strain it'll put on your reputation." I said and he looked at me, then slowly broke into a smile.

"Adoption would be wonderful, Babe. I approve of it." He said and I sighed in relief.

"Are you sure it's okay with you? I don't want anything that'll downplay your personality." I said and he held my palm.

"I know how much you love and want to protect me. But I'm okay with this. We both get a child to play with and you and your parents are happy. It's okay by me, Baby. I love you." He said.

"Happy Two year Anniversary," I muttered as I finished writing on the cake. I turned to my one year and seven month old son and smiled as he ate from his plate.

"Does mummy's boy want cake?" I asked and he looked and shook his head.

"It looks like the cwake is for Dada." He muttered and I smiled. An extremely smart kid. I already had the day planned out for me and Rob. Although I was slightly hurt that he hadn't remembered our anniversary, I hoped and planned that the day went well.

I had food delivered to his office and sent him the reservation in a Five-star hotel for our Dinner date. I smiled as I received his text, telling me he'd join me for the night out.

"Rob and I would be out for the night and would most likely be back home tomorrow. Is it possible for you to take care of Kenneth for me, Mom?" I asked my mom over the phone. 

"Yes sure why not..I'd love to spend a little time with my grandson. You go on and enjoy your anniversary." Mom said and I smiled.

"Thanks, Mom. I'll be expecting you soon?" I asked and she grunted.

"Soon." She said and ended the call.

 I smiled and entered the bathroom, soaking myself in the Jacuzzi with sweet fragranced soaps. I bathed myself slowly and gently. My phone beeped with a tone, indicating I had received a message. I felt it was from Rob, so I finished Bathing quickly and walked into the room. It was a text from an unknown number.

I opened the text message and saw a picture of Rob cuddled up with a woman, whose face had been blurred out. 

"You stole him from me two years ago. Now I have returned to claim him back, and there's nothing you're going to be able to do about it. He was mine to begin with, he's always been mine. Even from the very beginning of your sham of a marriage." The text read.

I dropped the phone in slight shock. I looked at the clock. It was few minutes to our Date at the hotel. I picked up my phone and dialed Rob's number. 

"It has to be a prank. Rob's just playing with me. He can't be cheating on me." I muttered, my hand shaking with Fear and worry.

Fear that it might not be a prank.

Rob picked his call after the Fourth dial. "Rob, I've dialed your phone number four times now and you didn't pick it up. Are you alright?" I asked hurriedly.

"He's alright and he's busy at the moment. I'm ending the call now, you're being a nuisance to our fun." A female voice said and ended the call. That voice sounded overly so familiar. Hurriedly, I dressed up and drove to the hotel, and waited for Rob to show up.

Two hours passed, and Rob did not show up. My tears had already ruined my make-up and my mascara had stained my shirt. I wiped the snot off my nose and sat back. 

I stood up after gathering myself and drove home. Nobody seemed to be home, so I decided to go to Rob's personal room to sleep, and wait till he got back from wherever he was. As I approached the room, I heard stifled sounds.

Sounds like someone was having sex. My heart pounding hard in my chest, I half ran to the room. I opened the door slowly after taking several calming breaths, and in the dimly lit room, I could see the silhouette of my Husband, but I couldn't make out who the second person was.

It was a woman, with a very familiar essence and color of hair. "Urgh Sophie. Your pussy's still as good as it has always been." Rob moaned as he fucked the woman.

The name struck me like lightning. I removed my hand from the doorknob and closed it over my mouth, stifling my scream.

I couldn't believe what I had just heard. Was I hearing right? Certainly not.

Surely, Rob couldn't have just Moaned Sophie's name right? Sophie wasn't in the pack, she'd be gone for two years. Ever since my wedding. She told me she moved somewhere new because she wanted to start afresh. Especially since everybody had backlashed her after her extravagant dressing at my wedding. 

What was Sophie doing in my husband's room, in bed with my husband? Fucking my husband.

My mind flashed back to when we had been newly married. Rob had told me he was a virgin and wasn't exactly good in the act. We didn't have sex until a week after our wedding, and it was because he said he was a virgin and needed to brush up his skills. I had heard moans and sounds from his bedroom, but I concluded that it was from the Pornographic series he'd been watching.

How could I be so foolish and blinded by love?

Not able to take it any longer, I switched the light to a Brighter one, and suddenly they became aware of my presence. 

"Sophie. What is this? What have you done? How could you betray me like this?" I asked slowly and she glared at me.

"He was mine first. But the stupid mate bond kicked in and he couldn't reject you, particularly because of what you could offer his career. He used you. I used you. I didn't betray you. You were just blind and Naive and unnecessarily trusting. Do you know how long I've been waiting for this day, the day you'd find out that Rob has always been mine? It's been a long time And it's finally here. The thrill." She said and I clutched my chest.

I couldn't believe that my best friend was saying all this. I turned to look at my husband, the man I had tried to protect. The man I had given my all to, just to protect and please him. The man that I had sworn to love for forever. 

"Robert, how could you?! How could you do this to me?!" I said softly, my voice shaky and tears streaming down my eyes.

Rob looked at me with a small grin.

"It's lovely to know you've found out already. You were just the means to an end. Daisy, meet the love of my life, Sophie Williams."
