Fever 2
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56It was noon when she awoke again. The fever became worse than earlier and she could barely lift her hands or any part of her body.
Her taste bud was bitter and nausea danced around in her throat.
She winced whilst attempting to shield the light that was streaming into the room from the opened window with her hand.
Her body trembled, then she tugged the blanket she barely used when she was healthy to cover herself up to her chin.
She wondered if this was how she often felt whenever she had a fever.
But, she couldn't remember the last time she had been this ill. Nevertheless, she was aware she hadn't been this worse and down with fever.

"Quit doing that, that is total blackmail! You know I can't resist that look." Janice glared whilst staring at Bessie who still had the 'puppy eyes' look on."Okay fine!" She huffed, then climbed down from the bed slowly. She waddled towards the closet and tossed her robe on."You know it's weird to see you talking to it. I mean, it can't understand whatever you say but you make it look like it does." Margie said whilst staring at the little creature that was sprawled beside the pillow.Janice shrugged as she tied the belt of the robe around her, "I feel connected to it. Even though we can barely say a word to one another, I think we understand each other. Don't we Bessie?"The puppy leapt on the bed, yapped, and wa

"Okay, how about you spill the tea? We're just going in circles here, and I have zero patience for that," Maggie said, frustration noticeable in her voice."Are you willing to tell me or not? It feels like you're purposefully stalling," she glared at Janice."Of course, I want to tell you," Janice affirmed, rolling her eyes. She took a deep breath, trying to gather her thoughts on where to begin."You can start from the end if you want," Maggie urged. "I just need to know what's going on between you two. This marriage is starting to look like a joke to me.""Maybe it is," Janice mumbled. She had considered this many times, and it was the conclusion she had arrived at. She felt like a mere amusement to Jules and his manipulations.He used her as he pleased, pretending to care when he never did and never would. It had always been about the baby from the beginning and would continue to be.Janice considered pulling the same stunt she had before, but she knew it would only bring her more t

It was midnight when the first wave of contraction hit her.Janice had ignored the previous one as she thought it was a minor pain and had tried to sleep through it.But then, it came back stronger.It was then, she realized she was going into labour.She thought she was some days away from it because she often checked the calendar. She was certain she hadn't missed anything. Even Jules wasn't around yet and the thought of having a child without him being present made her panic."I am not prepared." She mumbled. Her hand went through her dishevelled hair and she let out a breath through her mouth whilst she waddled towards where her robe was hung.

Janice groaned, she clenched the duvet that was wrapped around her lower midsection, shut her eyes and gritted her teeth before puffing out a breath.Her nostrils flared and her back ached from laying on the bed since the contraction began."Someone should get this out of me!" Janice arched her back and sweat dribbled down her forehead."My lady, you'll be fine," Grace assured, wiping the sweat off her face."I doubt that." She gasped out.She added when the pain lessened, "I need Jules. I don't care wherever he is, I need him right now!"She bit down on her lower lips hard, enough for it to draw b

It was exactly two hours after Jules landed and Janice was a bit relieved that not only had the pain in her tummy and lower back lessened, but she could move around the room as well, without feeling like she was going to be ripped into two. The only restriction she had was that she couldn't go a long distance, but it was better than being confined to the bed. “How about you take a cold shower to help with the pain?’’ Jules asked, whilst Janice fanned herself. She nodded without hesitation and allowed him to help her out of the bed. Stripping down to nothing, she stepped into the bathtub and let out a sigh as the warm water caressed her delicate skin. Janice eyed Jules from the corner of her eyes as she noticed him watching her from the d

"May I?"Janice nodded as Jules pointed to her chest. She turned, and showed her back to him, to help her undo the hooks of her brassiere.She breathed out as her ample breasts bounced free from the restraint.She rolled her eyes as she noticed Jules’ eyes on them and glimpsed him licking his lips slowly."Don't." She mumbled."Don't what?" A grin plastered on his face, "I said nothing.""I know and I am aware of what you are about to say." She mumbled, grabbing her son who was squirming in his cot.Jules shrugged, "I doubt that."

Jules was the first to snap out of the daze he was in. He stomped towards the woman and glared, "Lucy, I think you are mistaken.""Perhaps I need to say it again. This is your child whom you abandoned years ago. He is here now. You can take him. I don't want him anymore."Lucy shoved the little boy forwards and despite her confusion, Janice instinctively caught him before he could tumble to the tiled floor."I have no child with you." Jules gritted his teeth.He yanked her hand and tugged her towards the waiting room, which was inside the church.He noticed people were gathering. A few people took photos of him.

"How dare he do that to me?!" Janice paced around the room, gritting her teeth. She balled her hands into fists and exhaled noisily through her nose."I don't think he is aware of this. I believe what Jules says, and you don't have to blame him. He is even astonished himself." Margie pointed out.She glanced briefly away from her phone, then at Janice."I don't care if he is astonished or not! Why the hell will he go about assessing everything in a skirt?!"Janice tossed her hands in the air. "I should have known he would never change. I thought he was beginning to become the kind of man I want…""He changed for you." Margie interrupted. "He mi

Janice glanced at the door as a knock sounded on it. She rolled on the bed and snatched the hanky beside her to blow her nose.Her eyes were puffy, but she didn't care. She only wanted the pain that seemed to have multiplied ever since she moved out of the room she shared with Jules to vanish.Also, the new ones that surfaced when she knew about what happened seemed to intensify all that she had been feeling and wondered if she could do anything.As soon as she got home, she had tried to set up a meeting with Jules to talk about everything, but it seemed like he didn't want to see her because each time she went close to his room, she noticed it was locked.She didn't know where he often went and didn't have th

The next morning, Janice groaned as she came awake. She rubbed her temple and winced as she sensed a headache brewing.She recalled doing what Margie had termed to be fun yesterday.It wasn't her wearing a skimpy bikini to show off her backside to people in the castle nor did she seduce anyone as she had suggested.They had a little tea party in her room yesterday. Only that it wasn't tea they had taken.It was a brandy Margie had stolen from Jeremy's collection and hid in her bag.Music had been played as well but was on low volume because of Prince Michael and even the dowager queen since she would term the choice of their music disapproving or vulgar.

"But trust me, can you see he is suffering the same way as you?""Just drop it, Margie.""Fine." Margie shrugged. "I hope you accept him before it is too late. You should try considering him because of the prince anyway."Janice glared and puffed out a breath. "We are not talking about him anymore."Margie giggled as Janice tossed her a throw pillow. She drew an imaginary zip across her lips and tossed the key away before staring at her."How about we do something fun?"Janice creased her brows whilst staring at the twinkles in Margie's eyes.

Janice glared at the phone, continuously ringing on the nightstand, then at Margie, sitting beside her with Prince Michael in her arms."Give him a chance, I don't think he wanted to hurt you.""Well, when Jeremy does the same, I'd like to say the same to you."Margie rolled her eyes, "Jeremy wouldn't dare. Besides, I trust Jules and I know what he can do. He'd never do such. I smell blackmail."Janice shrugged, "I don't think so. We both know how Jules is before he married me. What shows he wouldn't do the same?""You should see how he stares at you, Janice." Margie enthused. "He freaking adores you and you think he would do something as awful as this with

"Janice…""Stay away from me!"Janice snapped, moving past him and down the hallway. She stepped into the room and he followed suit.Jules let out a sigh and he pinched the bridge of his nose. "At least, give me a chance to explain myself."Janice sat on the bed, her eyes were on the ceiling. Even though she could see whatever Jules was doing in the room from the corner of her eyes, she pretended like she didn't see him."Will you ever hear me out or just assume I cheated on you?"She glared at him but wished she hadn't. His eyes were sunken and bleary as if he had not slept for days.
