~Maya’s POV~
I was having such a hard time processing anything, so I just gazed at my phone.
Why was my father calling me?
He drove me away from his home as if I had never been his daughter, but when I returned there with Lord Archer, he started to take an interest in me again. I am not entirely sure what to describe him; perhaps an opportunist would be appropriate. I didn’t pick up the phone, as I didn’t know what he wanted. One thing is certain, though: he needs help. The only thing that man ever thinks about is money. I didn’t pick up the call, but I saw a text message pop up on my phone screen.
Dad: I’m sorry.
What! What’s the matter with him? He called me to say that he was sorry. How could that even be? He didn’t want me to ask Zion to help him with his business, did he? Is there something wrong with him? Is he alright? I had a lot of questions, but then I brushed everything off. I heard gasps in the television room. As I got closer, I could make out the sound of moaning, but it wasn’t coming from just one person. As soon as I walked into the TV room, everyone’s gaze was drawn to me. Despite this, my gaze quickly shifted to the TV in front of me. It was Ivy, Teresa, and Nathan. Instantaneously, both of my hands went to cover my lips. The workers then turned it off. How did the media get that video? It was only me who possessed it, and I was the only one who got rid of it.
Did Zion… Naaa, not possible. Was this the reason my father was calling me? I couldn’t help but giggle at myself because I knew that man would never contact me for no reason. He would probably want me to help him with something. I hopped up and headed back to my room, where I sat on the edge of the bed while clicking the buttons on my phone to see what was happening in the world. I found out that my family had been through a terrible tragedy and had lost everything, including their home and their business. What is going on?
When Zion strolled in, I had just taken up my phone and was going to make a call to my father.
“Babe, Grandma went back. It appears that Grandpa suffered an injury today after falling. She promised that she would come when it was almost time for you to give birth.” I stared at my husband. The fact that his grandfather wasn’t feeling well didn’t appear to bother him in the least.
“Does it often happen?”
“What?” he asked.
“Your Grandfather.” He chuckled and put his hands on either side of my face.
“Do you really think, baby, that if you told me you were going to stay somewhere for the next five months, I wouldn’t make up some excuse to keep you there by pretending to be sick? Do you have any idea how awkward it was for me to have to sleep in a separate room with you? I almost died, so you can’t blame Grandpa. ”
Instantaneously, I was overcome with a flush. I can’t believe that, old man. Isn’t he too old to… oh my goodness, you can’t tell me that they are still doing it at their age, can you? I can’t believe it. When that dawning dawned upon me, I turned to look towards Zion.
“No way!”
“What, Grandpa is still in good shape? So why not? ” When he finished saying that, he let out a hearty laugh. Then he continued, “Since we won’t be having Grandma around, why not go for lunch? I had originally denied the lunch invitation, but now since there are only the two of us, I will phone Andrew and let him know that we will be attending.”
“Andrew?”
“Yeah, that moron who blew my gigolo pretense that day at the hotel,”
“Oh, I see, umm, Zion.”
“Mmm.”
“In all honesty, I don’t think it would be a good idea for me to follow you.”
“Why is that?”
“I know Andrew Jackson, he’s…”
“Don’t tell me he tried to hit on you.” I felt like giving up and looking down at the ground, but if Zion and I are going to have any chance of surviving in this world, we are going to have to be honest with each other, and that means I am going to have to tell him everything.
“Well, yes, and there is more. Actually, he is Nathan’s friend. I had several encounters with him, and at one point while I was with Nathan, he made advances toward me.
“Don’t worry about it. I actually fucked his girlfriend. ”
“Zion!”
“To tell you the truth, I had no idea who she was, and he never did introduce us. She hit on me, and since I have never been serious with any girl, I fucked her and that was it. She wanted more, but I couldn’t offer her more. Lady Archer, you should know that ladies often fling themselves at your husband, but I only have eyes for you and only you. I am completely and utterly besotted with you. You alone, Maya Zion Xavier Archer. I was waiting for you. I fucked many girls. I won’t lie to you, sweetie; no one came close to making me want to settle down like the 16-year-old girl I met back then, and I couldn’t even tell her I wanted her; instead, I proposed that we make tattoos together. I won’t lie to you. I was aware that you were aware of my intentions at the time, but I was unable to tell you anything. So every other girl I went out with was just a one-night stand, and Andrew knew that, so he wasn’t mad. He wanted to hook up with all the girls I had hooked up with. But that didn’t bother me, as I knew he would never screw you. And I’m grateful he didn’t get the chance. ”
He leaned forward and planted a kiss on my scalp. Zion is an easygoing individual, but I’m getting anxious about the situation. Even though Andrew knew I was with Nathan, he was still after me. But if Andrew wanted to hook up with all the girls that Zion had hooked up with? Is it some game that guys play? Back then, Andrew knew I was with Nathan. Did he and Nathan both hook up with the same girls? Argh, why should I care now? But the problem is that I wouldn’t feel comfortable at that lunch because I know Nathan would be there. Nathan talks too much, and if he says something stupid, Zion might hit him. I shouldn’t really go. Zion was already changing, and I knew that saying no wouldn’t help, so I changed too.
“Babe, are you experiencing any pain at all right now?”
“What pain?”
“Pain in the lower abdomen.”
“No, it’s because I was very stressed out before. Since then, I’ve been fine. Also, Kelly Martin and your call girls are no longer around.”
“Yea.” After fixing his shaft inside his pants with his hand, he went on saying, “Right,” he gave me a lustful glance and then placed his hand in between his thighs. I know that look. I also know that tonight it is going down. But wait, we haven’t done it in a month. Will I be able to moan or will I be reduced to barking? I surprised myself by laughing out loud.
“Ha Ha Ha.” Zion stared at me with what appeared to be a bewildered expression.
“What?” he asked.
“Zion, what if I bark?” He glanced at me with a puzzled expression and then said I continued, “I mean, it’s been a month now…” He laughed so hard that he fell off the bed. Taking a look at me as if I’d said something wrong.
“Come on over.” After he had finished laughing, he reached out and gave my stomach a light pat. “Babe, we are going to bark with you.” We both started laughing, and then he said, “Should we try it now to see if you will bark instead of moaning?”
“Pervert!”
