Not An Easy Ride

The following days were blissful for both Wyoming and Cayden. Every look and every touch has a different meaning for both of them. Everyone around them would hide an amused look seeing their lovesick expressions, doting even, the overcast hanging above their heads notwithstanding. John had been discharged from the hospital. Still, he and Wyoming were not on speaking terms, insisting that Wyoming divorced Cayden outright, which the latter refused. Not when she and Cayden had already reached an understanding. “We are going to start anew, this time as real husband and wife,” Cayden promised when he walked up to her after tearing up the contract they signed for their fake marriage. Tears welled up in her eyes, remembering the tender expression on his face. She was so happy. She did not think that she could be this happy in loving someone. It was liberating to finally be free from trying so hard to hide her feelings. A sigh was released from her lungs. She does not have to hide a

Keeping The Lie

When Alicia left, Wyoming had this sudden urge to run and follow her, but she restrained herself. She did not know why she suddenly felt shy now that she knew that the mother-in-law she looked up to is her mother. “You look unhappy,” Maggie commented when she sat down on the couch to rest her throbbing head on its back. She sighed at the momentary respite, except the throbbing returned when Maggie asked her the question she did not have an answer for. Wyoming bit her lip. Her bloodshot eyes peered at Maggie.She looked uncertain, almost regretful, as she looked at the older woman to whom she had gone quite close these few months. “Was I too harsh on her?” Wyoming said in a little girl’s voice, uncertainty shrouding her voice. There was also something in her tone that Maggie seemed to understand fully, but she did not point it out. Better for Wyoming to discover it for herself. “You were surprised. It was understandable.” Maggie patted her hand, offering comfort. But it

A New Promise

When he turned his head to look at her, Cayden appeared like a one-eyed patch pirate, devilishly handsome with a few strands of his hair falling to his forehead and covering his one eye as he made the announcement.  Wyoming locked gazes with Cayden but shifted her gaze elsewhere when the look he gave her became heated. She could not stand the tension that suddenly grew between them at that moment.   It was like she was on fire with something she did not understand.  She rolled her eyes to the insides of the church where they took their first vow as husband and wife, noticing that the feeling this place evoked in her this time was quite different from the first. Not only did the place look ethereal and solemn. It also lacked the glitter of came

Marriage Consummated

“What’s the rush?” Wyoming commented when her head almost hit the dashboard. Cayden pressed his foot down the accelerator, gaining more than the usual speed limit. He looked at her sideways.  The look he gave her was a heated look, full of meaning.“I want to be alone with you.”  He said hoarsely. That shut her up. Wyoming could not explain the sudden tensing of her stomach muscle, more intense than the one she felt while they were inside the church. Imaginary butterflies were swirling around her belly, making her unconsciously grab the overhead grip handle, hoping to find her body’s balance. Silence pervaded the car’s interior, except for the engine’s hum and the occasional traffic sounds outside, both the passenger and the driver were silent, absorbed in their own thoughts. They stopped outside the entrance of Ellish Towers, to Wyomin

A Crack in the Bliss

Wyoming woke up to a full bladder and got out of bed, carefully peeling the arm Cayden wrapped on her waist before she trudged the carpeted floor on the way to the bathroom.She took a leak feeling uncomfortable around her pelvic area and a tenderness in her breast.  Before she went back to bed, she thought of something and went to the bedside table where she put her phone last night. Wyoming picked up the phone, powered it, and started swiping until she found what she was looking for - her period tracker.  Upon seeing the date, she realized that it was almost that time of the month which explains the cramps around her lower abdomen and her cravings.  Before she took the phone down, she also checked the time, noting that it was still too early she got back into bed and snuggled close to Cayden, who in turn instinctively opened his arms to make room for her. She laid her head on his chest, circling an arm to his waist to find a

Found Again

When his chartered plane landed, Cayden sat rigidly on his seat.  His detailed security stood waiting for him to disembark, but he did not seem to find the strength to move. “Sir, we have landed.”  He ignored the flight attendant when she told him and continued staring off into space. To be honest he had mixed feelings about this. When he first got the tip, all he thought was to get the answers he needed.  Now that he was here, he was hesitating and he knew why as thoughts of Wyoming flitted through his mind. She had been so peaceful earlier - happy and secure in their relationship. But now, he was about to break her happiness and trust. And the feeling was not good. It bothered him a lot. He had never lied to her except now.  Technically, this was not lying.  He only omitted to tell her things, and this bothered him. “Sir?”  The head of h

A Baby On The Way

Wyoming was on the way to the photo shoot when she felt nauseated.   She rubbed her temples, feeling her stomach lurch unexpectedly. Beads of sweat formed on her forehead as she tried hard to stifle the vomit. But at the last minute found herself unable to control the bile that rose to her throat and asked Teddy to park on the nearest service road. The moment the car stopped, she alighted from the car, almost running in her haste, and emptied the contents of her stomach. She repeatedly retched until nothing was left but saliva, tasting like acid on her tongue. “Are you alright?” Marie asked, rubbing her back soothingly in an up-and-down motion. She did not realize that Marie followed her out.&n

Torn

“Did you know about being pregnant?’  Alicia asked after the doctor bade them goodbye to continue doing his morning round. Wyoming shook her head no, but when she thought about it, the news did not entirely surprise her.  A soft smile curled her lips, thinking about how she and Cayden spent their nights after their impromptu second wedding.She felt a thrill course through her body at the knowledge that she and Cayden had created a life.  Now, their marriage is complete.  While happy thoughts consumed Wyoming, Alicia watched her daughter pityingly - an involuntarily sigh escaping her lips,  knowing the circumstance behind her daughter and Cayden’s marriage. “Are you going to tell Cayden?”  Her softly spoken words snapped Wyoming out of her daze, bestowing her mother with a dazzling smile that radiates from within.  It was a no-brainer for anyone to think that Wyoming was

Pregnant With His Child

Cayden was on the warpath when he went to his grandfather’s mansion. A butler met him at the main door, but he ignored his greeting, striding inside, almost running in his haste.He took the stairs in quick strides, only allowing himself to stop when he reached the second-floor landing, his chest heaving profusely from exertion and anger. He took deep breaths to fill his lungs with air, and when he finally got enough, he walked to his grandfather’s room in quick strides.  He did not bother to knock.  He twisted the knob open and pushed his way in, surprising his grandfather, who was lounging on his settee with a nurse looking after him. “Cayden, you did not inform me that you are coming.”  Noah Ellish, though registering a look of surprise on his face, did not let on as he said in his usual commanding voice.  His shoulders tensed when he noted the angry expression on his grandson's face.

Uncontrollable Desires

“You wanted to say something.”  Cayden folded his hands and placed them atop the table before focusing his gaze on his best friend. James mimicked his friend’s pose and asked confidentially, “Supposing Wyoming is pregnant, who will you choose?”  James watched as contradicting emotions flitted on Cayden’s face. He looked conflicted, but after a while, his best friend shook his head no and looked him squarely in the eye.“Don’t try to muddle my mind with what ifs.  It could not take another beating.  It had been battered enough since finding out about Tori’s condition and how grandpa drove her off.”  Cayden told James earlier about what he learned - how his grandfather used his money to pay off Tori to leave. “Besides, it would be too early to tell if Wyoming is pregnant,”  Cayden said as if convincing himself of the impossibility of getting Wy
