Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son A ghost from the past
Marlani…. I ignored my phone as it continued to ring on my bed stand. As if I didn’t have a lot on my plate already, a ghost from my past had suddenly resurfaced, threatening to haunt me, to ruin the life I had built for myself and Eggust who had a hard time appreciating it. I tried to get some sleep, even though it was afternoon already, but the phone wouldn’t stop ringing and I knew the caller was persistent, if I didn’t attend to it, the caller wouldn’t stop. After several minutes of tossing and turning, I finally made up my mind. I would have a meeting with him and settle whatever it was, once and for all. I got out of bed and rummaged through my closet, to find something decent to wear. I opted for a peach off shoulder dress that stopped right above my knee, and paired it with silver wedge. I texted the persistent caller the location of the restaurant we would be meeting, his reply came almost immediately, like he knew I wouldn’t be able to stand my ground. So muc
Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son Marlani’s dilema
Marlani’s POV The thought of grandpa Oscar being here made my heart race with thoughts. He wouldn’t come to Manchester for just any reason, unless it was something very important. Eggust was the one person whom he cared most about. It wouldn’t be a coincidence that Grandpa Oscar was in Manchester the same time Eggust was in Manchester. Perhaps he found out about Eggust’s relationship with Juss and was here to reprimand me for not doing my job as a mother. Oh, Marlani, you had just one job to do and you completely ruined it. Now grandpa will lose faith in you. There was only one way to find out why he came, and that was asking him, but did I ask him? No. We’d been walking for a while and he still hadn’t said anything, he probably wanted me to speak first. His way of asking me to confess, but I wasn’t going to play by that rule. From now on, I would only play by Marlani’s rule. “Grandpa, why are you here? How did you know I was here?” I finally managed to say, bre

Eggust's POV With a sigh of relief, I closed the file I had been working on and transferred it to the folder beside me, to join the pile of files I was done with. I suddenly realized I was thirsty but while I had a variety of drinks in my office refrigerator, I decided some air would do me good so I asked Ezekiel if he wanted a drink too. He stood up and headed for the refrigerator before I stopped him. "No. I think it would be best to get something down the road." “Eggust, I don’t think you should be drinking, I understand you’re going through something, but drowning yourself in booze is not the solution.” Ezekiel was lucky I liked him, if it was someone else, they would have lost their job already. “Sometimes I wonder why you act like an old lady, besides, you know I don’t actually drink booze, so just have a drink with me or go home to your wife or something.” “You’re too stubborn, I wonder if you’re really the son of Marlani—“ “Don’t rule out Sylvester, I’m his

Eggust's POV She looked so sad it broke my heart. I couldn’t imagine why she was so sad. Was she genuinely concerned about my mum's health? Even after all that she did to her? What sort of person was Juss? My mum had literally threatened to ruin her life, she almost lost our child in the process, yet she was here, and not just because she had to, I could see the way she genuinely cared for my mum. I was happy to see her, thank goodness my team reached out to her, and she actually came. “Maryellen told me Ms Indigo had been crying non stop after she heard what happened to your mum.” Ezekiel whispered. Yes, it did sound like Juss. She has a heart of gold. “She looks so beautiful. The baby is really growing. I would have loved to see how big the baby is with the size of this bump.” “Eggust,” Ezekiel called out with a warning tone. Juss was wearing a blue and pink dress with ruffles on the neck and sleeves. I didn't recognize the dress and I was sure it was a new one.

Hera's POV… His scent filled my nostrils, as I struggled to breathe with him hovering all over me. I knew things would change, but I didn’t expect it to be so soon. I should have done this earlier.. “You’re back for good!” I embraced him, feeling the warmness of his skin. “I am, and I should have never left, I’m back because I love you, and I want you.” For once in my life, I felt like things were actually going according to plan. “Hera, you have no fucking idea how much I’ve longed for you,” he whispered, the air crackled with electricity at the realization that he wanted me. I was his meal and he had been starved for far too long. So I let him have me, all of me to do with me as he pleased. “You’re so beautiful, Hera, he muttered, planting feathery kisses on my body.” “Hmm hmm,” I muttered, trying to stifle my moans. “Please take me back, I’ve been lost without you, I know now that I shouldn’t have left you, and I totally regret it.” There was a flicker of r

Juss’ Pov Odd, that was how I felt sitting in the hospital waiting area. I sighed, burying my head in my palms, as I mentally counted down to when the nurse would attend to me. It was difficult to believe Ezekiel actually let me go until I got to the train station and Eggust’s men were nowhere in sight. It wasn’t until I checked into a hotel that I felt completely relieved. I expected Eggust’s men to stop me at the train station or Eggust himself to force me back home with him, but it’s been a bit over one week and none of that happened. No calls from him or even text messages. It was like he had forgotten about me, which kind of gave me mixed feelings. Had he finally decided to let me go? Did he find someone else that he was now interested in? Does he still want to be with me and our child? My mind was racing with so many thoughts. When I woke up this morning, I felt sick and had a feeling something was wrong with the baby. Call it motherly intuition. Although there
Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son Them again
Hera’s POV… A very tiny flicker of guilt sparked to live in my heart after they left. Which was quite overwhelming and surprising. I wasn’t one to actually feel guilty or remorse, but Mia had been good to me ever since I got here. I even framed her for stealing, which worked out well eventually. Also, she offered to take me in when I left my aunt’s house. Despite the fact that she was constantly nagging about me being irresponsible, she didn’t kick me to the curb like Marlani was doing. “Did I really do the right thing by letting them take Mia away when I was the one who had blackmailed Juss?” I asked rhetorically. “You’re wrong and you know so stop asking stupid questions.” I looked around to see who replied to me with that much anger and realized after seeing no one around that I replied myself from within. It proved that I still had a conscience. I laughed at the thought of my conscience being active. I had no idea what they were going to do to Mia, but I had a
Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son Impatience and consequence
Hera's POV The trip to David's house was uneventful, except for the myriad of thoughts buzzing in my head, as I pondered on what my next move would be. I had to run from the cops in a place I wasn’t familiar with. As if my life didn’t already suck. Now I was practically a fugitive, with no one to turn to, because every freaking person I knew was being arrested. Well, everyone except David. Despite my fear that I would get caught or sighted at least, I arrived safely. The temperature had dropped by the time I arrived at the subway station. I pulled my coat tighter around me and wished I had been calm enough to pack a muffler or head warmer but the hoodie I wore underneath the coat would have to do. Slinging my overnight bag over my shoulder, I started walking down, my mind full of possibilities. If I hid out in David's house for a few days, maybe I could contact Marlani and get money from her. Or maybe I would just be revealing my exact location to her so she coul

JussOne week came to an end in the blink of an eye and it was time to go back home.“Babe, can we not go home?” Eggust groaned.“No way babe. The plan was to spend three days but here we are eight days later.”“Does it matter?” He whined.Eggust has always been a big baby and he wasn’t planning to grow up any time soon.“It does! Now stop being a baby and get up.”“But I’m a baby, or isn’t that what you call me.”I raised my hands in surrender triggering laughter for the both of us. “You win. So dear baby, get up, mummy wants to bathe you.”“Mummy should carry me to the bathroom.” He murmured.“Really?” I bent down to carry him immediately and fell back on his body and we got into another fit of laughter.He ended up carrying me to the bathroom.While we were bathing together everyone was washing their bodies so I had nothing in mind when I applied face wash with my eyes closed, but Eggust had other plans.He started massaging my soapy breast. It was soft and slippery, making me moan
Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son The rest of our lives
Eggust's POVThree years laterThe excitement woke me up. It was our wedding anniversary and I was going to have Juss all to myself all-day for the first time in such a long time.I couldn't wait. I opened my eyes with a smile when I felt little feet pushing again my rib.Yep, one of the kids had snuck into bed with us again. It had become a habit in the past one year but my mom assured me that they would soon outgrow it really.I certainly hope so because this sharing business was not funny at all.Ten minutes later, at exactly 7:00 a.m. the doorbell rang and I rushed downstairs to get the package from the delivery guy.I had ordered a breakfast package to serve her in bed because I knew I wouldn't get through with cooking before she woke up. These days the kids ruled the house and whenever they woke up, everybody else had to wake up too.Juss had been craving Chinese for a while now and so I decided to surprise her with it. I put it on a tray and waltzed into the room singing a son

Marlani's POVIt was such a monotonous routine. Everyday, I woke up with a pain in my back due to the uncomfortable couch in the hospital room. I did my morning oblations in the bathroom then came to sit by his bedside till about noon when the second maid would come with lunch, then I'd go home, change and come back.The doctors tried their best to assure me he would be fine, but when your loved one was in a coma, it was difficult to have good thoughts. Grandfather’s dream replayed on my mind over and over again. I almost found myself begging him to let Sylvester go. It wasn’t his time yet. I was on the verge of giving up. The only thing that had kept me sane was talking, and talking I did.I went on to tell him about everything!Things that were happening in the world and in my life, hoping he would wake up and ask any questions but he never did.There was nothing I did not do.I cried.I prayed.I got angry at him.I begged.I appealed to him but nothing seemed to work.He just d

Marlani's POV"We need to leave now ma'am." My housekeeper said to me very early this morning.I couldn't understand how the day was so bright when I felt so gloomy.Today, we were holding a funeral for my father in law! His death still felt surreal, he was such a pillar and leader. Yes, he was gruff and grumpy and even mean occasionally, but generally, he had been a wonderful person.Nature had to show respect and join in the mourning!!!I smiled sadly to myself as I realized the impossible and crazy thoughts I was having."What has come over you Marlani?"I guessed it was panic. A really big one.Grandfather had been the only one who had kept the family together and now that he was gone, I didn't know what would happen to us.No one was capable of or willing to fill his shoes. Sylvester had changed, but I had doubts he could fill in grandfather’s shoes. Eggust was still mad at everyone for what we did to Juss, though he tolerated us because of her, he still held grudges. I didn’t th

Juss’ Pov Today was the final court hearing for Hera’s case, I was already getting frustrated with the way the case was going. They had all the evidence, why did they still need to have multiple hearings, just to prove that Hera was really guilty?Her cohorts had already confessed to their crimes, it took a little push from Ezekiel to get them to all turn against Hera. They were released and asked to pay a fine because they were her accomplices. But her charges were more, as the mastermind.It was funny how a harmless looking person like Hera, was responsible for my dilemma. She didn’t even look like someone who would go as far as opening an anonymous account just to ruin my life. Yet, I felt pity for her. She was just a woman who fell in love with the wrong person. Her obsession with Eggust had driven her to do all of those things. I was this close to begging Eggust to drop the charges, but I held back when I realized I wasn’t the only one she put through trauma. Eggust suffered
Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son A new beginning
Juss’ PovAs I slowly opened my eyes, the haze of sleep began to clear, and I was met with the sound of faint chatter. My motherly instincts immediately kicked in, and I scanned the room for my babies. My mind relaxed as I spotted them safely in the arms of Eggust and Marlani. She had been a different person since I gave birth. Two days ago, she even offered me a heartfelt apology. Of course I forgave her, but that didn’t stop the awkwardness between us from lingering. I was grateful she cared about Oscar and Elaine though. It still felt like yesterday, even though it had been a whole week since I had my babies. I was to be discharged today and Sylvester had made arrangements for us to stay in grandfather’s house, as per his request.Grandfather was the first person to notice I had woken up. "Ah, Juss, you're awake," he said, drawing others attention to me. His voice was weak but filled with love.I tried to sit up, but my vision started to blur, a wave of dizziness washed over me,

Marlani…I found myself in my car, a couple of hours after Sylvester left, driving towards Eggust’s house. I couldn’t bear the feeling of guilt that gnawed at me. His house was a few miles away from here, so it took me some time to get there. When I got to the front door, I heard some noises coming from the living room. I recognized the voices as Sylvester’s Juss’ and Eggust’s.Sylvester was here? what was he doing here?There was a bit of scuffle, Sylvester and Juss were not exactly in an argument, Eggust would definitely not allow it. But they went back and forth. Sylvester accused Juss of hating him and being the reason why I never gave him a chance to redeem himself. While Juss insisted she was only trying to protect me. She knew what he did to me, and didn’t want me to go through something like that again. Eggust only interrupted when Sylvester’s voice got louder. He repeated the same words “careful dad, I will not let you insult my fiancée in our house.”“Our house?”They wer
Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son Hard realization
Sylvester’s Pov I got into my car, turned on the engine and drove to god-knows-where. I had nowhere in particular I thought of going to, I just knew I wanted to be as far away as possible. Not because I was mad at Marlani for what she said, ‘cause truthfully I deserved it.Instead, I was mad at myself, for thinking I could offer an apology, show her how much I’ve changed and the effort I’m putting in to make sure our relationship is better, then she would accept me again, and helplessly fall in love with me. That didn’t only make me a jerk, but completely delusional as well. But did she have to do it immediately though? After our moment of wild sex. Couldn’t she have just waited until tomorrow or the day after then?My grip on the steering was firmer. A car tried to overtake me, but I was too focus on my anger to notice that. Due to his frustration, the driver honked at me, cursing as he was finally able to.I yelled back in frustration, flipping the driver my middle finger. My knuc
Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son Biggest fear
Marlani After the meeting with Eggust’s grandfather, Sylvester drove me back to his penthouse. We hadn’t really talked about the day, which I was thankful for, it was a sour topic and the last thing I wanted was to be vulnerable around Sylvester. Things were much better now that we were living together, than they were in the last twelve years. Sylvester worked from home and barely left the house, unless he wanted to buy groceries, which was weird, because he never went to the grocery store himself. At first, I thought it was because of a lady, perhaps a new fling he was hooked on. But after his constant requests for me to join him, I realized he was doing it all to please me. Sylvester Flemming, doing everything in his power to be called a better husband? Who would have thought? Certainly not me. I just finished making breakfast and was setting the table, when I heard footsteps approaching, I turned around to see Sylvester sauntering down the stairs. He flashed me a warm smile as
