The Wife Chapter Eighteen.
Chapter Eighteen."Natalia, I would be back in about thirty minutes. Do not panic, and don't look for me." Noah said as he walked out.It was a work free day for him and he had decided to spend the day indoors. He had only stepped out to get some air, but unbeknownst to him, Natalia was not aware of that.She did not even hear him when he said that he would be out for about thirty minutes as her attention was on the screen in her bed room as she shed tears.Yes, she was watching a tragic romance movie and was too busy wiping the sad sad tears from her eyes as Mara, or whatever it was the female lead was called found out that her lover had died in the faccident that had made her to become a paraplegic and that she could not remember anything except from the accident...Her phone beeped, indicating that she had a onotification to check. One of her acquaintances had just texted her, asking for a meet up whenever she was free. Natalia looked at her phone screen, and back to the smart tel

Chapter Nineteen."That's the spirit. Excuse me while I call madam Joni." Wendy said with a smile as Natalia looked at her and face palmed herself."You mean your grandma, right?" Natalia asked."Yup. The one and only. She's a whiz at things like this." Wendy said with a proud smile. "And then there's little old me, on the other hand."She clicked her tongue and rolled her eyes. "The only thing I can identify these days is what is bad for me. Not my fault they look so incredible anyway, but still.""Are you okay, love?" Natalia looked worried. "Do you want to talk about it?""Honestly? No, I don't." Wendy shrugged. "Not yet, at least. I can't put it to words because it is all so— I will tell you when I am ready to, okay? Don't worry about me.""But—" Natalia began."Cross my heart and hope to die, I will not do anything stupid like jumping off a bridge or I'm front of a moving train. I know that suicide is not the answer, you know?" Wendy laughed."You're saying that like we were not

Chapter Twenty.Natalia was alone as the large house, wondering why Wendy left her alone to go somewhere."Well, Wendy has her own life, and it must have been very important for her, so she could not afford to leave it alone." Natalia said. Although she did not see Wendy receive any calls when they were at Grandma Joni's place. "Maybe the person sent her a text, or it was a pre-arranged event and she just happened to remember at the last minute." She mumbled, putting her two hands on her stomach while looking in the mirror, imagining herself to be a pregnant woman."But Noah had said flag we should try for a baby before, surely he would not be against it if I got pregnant. I could have just said that the contraceptive broke, or something. Who wouldn't want a baby anyway? Except my husband, that is?" She muttered sadly.After studying herself and feeling convinced that there was no change in her physical appearance, except for the fact that her body felt funnier, like it would when s

Chapter Twenty One.Natalia looked nervous as she waited for her husband to come back. He returned later that night but went straight to sleep. Maybe he had gone out for a drive to clear his head of troubled thoughts. But how troublesome could the thoughts of her having a baby or him being a father be? Natalia thought.He had come back home and gone straight to bed immediately, ignoring her as she sat in the living room, waiting for him to return. In the morning, he had gone out, stating that he had gone out to buy some real pregnancy tests, and that she didn't have to worry about the pregnancy, that it was fake."No shit, Sherlock." Natalia muttered as she laughed quietly to herself, saving the video to her iCloud and then calling Wendy immediately after.Wendy picked up on the first ring. "Hello? Natalia is that you?" Wendy's voice came through the phone and she was sounding unsure. "Yes, Wendy. It's me. You can breathe now." Natalia said, rolling her eyes."Shut up, loser." Wen

Chapter Twenty Two.“But I feel that women should be the ones to have more weight on decisions like that. The baby would stay in her own body still, wouldn’t it?” Natalia asked, her eyes brightening up.Piero nodded enthusiastically. “Well, that makes some sense. I cannot imagine taking these kind of decisions for a woman who is actually carrying the child.”“Exactly. And even if the man feels that—”“Natalia!” Noah said sharply, cutting her in. Natalia took a quick intake of breath, and then, as if realizing her place, she lowered and head and whispered. “Well, that is all I have to say.” Piero looked at Natalia. Her face was cast downwards and she was using her fork to play with her meal. He looked at Noah and wondered what was going on. Noah, on the other hand, was eating his meal like he had no care in the world than to look proper enough for a ‘prim and proper’ photo shoot. Not that there was anything wrong with that in general, but at that time, there was a lot of things th

Chapter Twenty Three."Natalia!" Noah's voice could be heard at all corners of the large house. The echoing made his loud voice seem even louder."Yes, Noah?" Natalia responded softly as she got down the stairs."I want some coffee before I go, now. I did not have enough sleep and as a man, I cannot afford to fall asleep at work. That would be of no good." Noah said with a small frown."Alright." Natalia said. "Would you like to have milk or sugar in it though?"Noah paused for a while. "Add enough milk and sugar. I don't want it black." He then said. Natalia walked away to get his beverage done."Since he's trying to act so bitter, why can't he take his coffee that way?" Natalia asked, mumbling to herself before going in to the kitchen to make coffee for two.Natalia's phone made a sound, letting her know that she had a message waiting to be read.She picked up her phone, it was Wendy. She was asking Natalia if she would be home for the day so that they could maybe go out and have s

Chapter Twenty Four."I do hope that you are enjoying the party, Mrs Shaw." One of the party attendees said to Natalia."Of course, it is splendid." Natalia beamed at him. "May I have a refill, please?"Natalia waved her glass in the air. The man gave a small smile. "Of course ma'am." He said and hailed for one of the people serving the drinks who were moving around to head in that direction."And Mr Shaw?" He asked Natalia as she got her refill."He could not make it today. He has a most important meeting scheduled at practically the same time, and another event afterwards. And so he could not afford to miss it, so, here I am!" Natalia grinned and spread her arms out."Okay madam. Enjoy your time here then. I have to go and have some more chit chat with the rest of the guests now.Natalia nodded and waved politely. "All the best."In actuality, all that Natalia had needed was a quiet place to sit, preferably in the sun. She felt that having her cells a little baked would do her more

Chapter Twenty Five.Piero! Natalia realized as the man put the phone down. He started to walk away.“Piero!” Natalia exclaimed. The man turned back in surprise and raised his sunglasses.“Natalia? Natalia Shaw? Is that you over there?” He asked, looking around him.Natalia sat up and waved.“Yes, it is me. I am over here.” She said from where she sat. Piero turned around and went to her and greeted her with a very polite handshake.“Wow. I didn’t think that I’d see you again so soon.” He grinned pleasantly.“Neither did I. But here we are.” She shrugged and gifted him a sunny smile.“Is Mr Shaw somewhere around here?” He asked.“No. He was supposed to be at this event, but then he was also supposed to be at a meeting and he had another event after that, so I am here to fill up on his behalf.” Natalia said.“Well, aren’t you the sweetest wife.” Piero said, looking around him. “How are you doing?”“I am doing well, thank you. How about you though? How are you?” Piero asked.“I am okay

The Wife Chapter Fifty Nine.
Chapter Fifty Nine.Delilah stepped out of her father’s car, wondering if it was just another dream, or if she was in fact, back home again.Everything looked the same, yet different, and she could not forget how she had screamed sometimes at night.Poor Dennis had bagged himself a lot of scratches and deep cuts, but as far as that went, he was alright. “Mom!” Delilah ran. “I’ve missed you so much.” “You saw me yesterday, honey.” Natalia chuckled. “I didn’t see you in this house, so I guess that that counts.” Delilah smiled at her. “And aunt Demarr? Are you still hearing from her?” “Yes, she’s getting married soon. Postponed it so that you could be in attendance.” Natalia said, and Delilah squeezed her hands in excitement. “My favourite girls are happy. This is wonderful.” Piero said as he made his way inside. “I hope you’re not gossiping about me.” Natalia gave him the side eye. “Bold of you to think that we’re doing that. We’re talking about Demarr!” She looked back at D

Chapter Fifty Eight. “I believe that it would be better if we marked them off as terrorists, instead of demons.” The bald man sitting in front of Delilah said.Delilah looked at the man, her mouth open in disbelief. “You can’t do that. Let them know the truth. Those were demons, you saw the videos, you’ve seen their heads. What more do you need to believe me?” Delilah asked him.Mr Archibald, the bald man sitting in front of her was a government representative. He pushed his glasses farther up the bridge of his nose and sighed. “You are not getting the point here, Miss D’Ricci. It is not that I do not believe you, but we don’t want to cause panic amongst the citizens. Some of them might even decide to leave altogether. It’s a fifty fifty chance that this would go exceptionally terribly or exceptionally good.” Mr Archibald said. “As usual. This is just due to selfishness. Why else would you want to do something for anyone?” Delilah hit her hands in the table. “You have to und

Chapter Fifty Seven. “I am very worried about her.” Natalia said in a small voice as Piero went down the stairs with her in his hands. “What? You’re worried about Delilah? Did you see how scary our baby girl looked?” Piero asked with a small chuckle. “I’m very sure she can handle anything.”They made their way out and Piero helped Natalia jump over the fence, and then the priest. “Why are we using this place?” She asked. “It’s faster if you know the forest. Driving from there to our house would take well over an hour. I can get us out if this forest in less than ten minutes and have you home ten minutes later too.” Natalia nodded as Piero spoke. “Surely, you will come back to look for her?” Natalia asked her husband. “Yes, of course. How has your pregnancy been? I hope that they didn’t do anything to you.” Piero was frowning. “As if Delilah would ever let that happen. She had been doing everything for me before now.” Natalia sighed and ducked as a branch almost hit her f
The Wife Chapter Fifty Six.
Chapter Fifty Six.Delilah had eventually dropped Dennis after showing him the way. She had told him to come to the palace with priests. As many as he could when she told him to. “Everything is happening way too fast.” Delilah whispered to herself as she got ready for her lunch with Eriel.She got dressed up in her evening gown and decided to go just like that. “Baby, you look wonderful!” Eriel said and she grinned. His usual compliments aside, she had actually been looking very beautiful recently. It was almost as if she was changing. In front of her, Eriel was grinning like a boy who was about to get a soccer ball.She walked over to him and made sure to show some leg before setting herself down on him and grinding her waist like she had been doing it all her life.She was more in tone with herself and her sexuality, so as far as she was concerned her body knew exactly what she was doing. “What are you doing?” Eriel asked. “Shut up.” Delilah said and continued to move on h
The Wife Chapter Fifty Five.
Chapter Fifty Five. Delilah had started to become even more attracted to the twins and was seriously thinking about what Eriel had said. If what he had said was true, then she would choose to have the both of them, but only in her human form. She didn’t want to change or shift or anything. She walked into Eriel’s room and slammed the door shut. Eriel sat up immediately. He was wearing only shorts. Good. Delilah smirked like a cat who was going to get it. “Delilah?” Eriel asked. “Why are you looking at me like that?” Delilah strutted to him confidently and threw the covers off of him. “I’m very sure that we both know why, crown prince.” She stroked his chest and immediately, he joined his lips to hers, shivering as his mouth came in contact with Delilah’s. Delilah let her hands roam free around his neck, and the hard planes of his chest and back, and the beautiful contour of his face. She took off her shirt in haste and saw Eriel gulp. She didn’t need to ask, he liked what he

Chapter Fifty Four.Mrs Martins took her seat and looked out of the window. Her stomach was very big and round now. Then she turned back to look at Dennis and shook her head. The boy look stressed out, and she was aware of how close Dennis and Delilah were. "Yes, Mrs Martins?" Dennis called out to let the woman know that he was still there. "I didn't forget about you, love. Come here and take a seat." Mrs Martins said, gesturing to the chair on the other side of the table.Dennis obeyed and took his seat. He knew that he would be in trouble and have a good scolding, if not more for beating that boy up like that. But Dennis was not going to apologise, even if they threatened to expel him. He did the right thing for the sake of other girls that that lunatic might come across.What if she was being sold at this very point? He thought. Dennis had read stories of human traders— traffickers, organ harvesters and people who used humans as game. "Are you even listening to me?" Mrs Mart
The Wife Chapter Fifty Three.
Chapter Fifty Three.Delilah sat close to her window overlooking the side of the place where people— demon people were practicing for their dance, and if what she was seeing was what it was, then it looked more like they were preparing to walk their way in and seduce the blood out of people. "They would probably do that." Eriel said from behind her. "You can read my mind?" Delilah asked, her face starting to turn red.Eriel laughed and shook his head. "No, I don't. You said that out loud, but you didn't notice. It would be lovely to know what runs through your head, though." "Stop teasing me now." Delilah rolled her eyes and turned back to the window.She had gone to her house to see her dad and brothers. Instead she saw her aunt Demarr. Not that she was surprised, since her mom said that Demarr had come around. They had a chat for about ten minutes, and Delilah managed to stop Demarr from calling the police to inform them of her sudden reappearance. "Are you listening to m

Chapter Fifty Two.Piero did his best to look at everything, just in case his wife had dropped something on purpose or accidentally that would aid him in his search for her.The Find Location app was running in his phone, so Piero knew that he was moving in the right direction. Why did she go that way though? A cold shiver crossed his person as he thought of his dear Natalia being mauled by a wild animal and he shook it off. “No. She is just lost. It’s nothing more than that.” He assured himself.Piero held the sound of something snapping and he turned his head quickly to the direction of the sound. Something ran so quickly that it seemed blurry to him. Piero could have sworn that they were human, but that was too fast for even Usain Bolt. “My eyes should stop playing tricks on me. I need to find Natalia and Delilah.” Piero muttered and he delved in deeper. He knew Natalia to be someone who would not go to dangerous places if she could, and he wondered if she felt that Delilah w
The Wife Chapter Fifty One.
Chapter Fifty One.Dennis looked at Piero from where he sat. They had been sitting there for about thirty minutes man, but it seemed like the man did not hear a word of what was being said.Violet was dead. Dennis did not know how sick the girl was to dress up and take pictures of herself to send everywhere. She sent to his two phones, to the group chats they shared and he had heard other people say that she sent the pictures to them too. They found her on the ground just in front of her house. Her neck was at an awkward angle and her eyes were open. The side of her head and the ground all around it was bloody. He had seen it when he was passing back, and at that moment her mother had come outside too, shrieking in horror.Even in death, Violet still wanted to be the centre of attention. And the thing was, Dennis did not feel remotely sorry that she had died. Sure, they used to know each other, but she was a terrible person and friend, and she had constantly annoyed him. He even fe
