Chapter 68.
Lyra was lying on the bed, scrolling through her phone before Bryan showed up. He has just finished bathing and dried his hair with the hand drier. He looked at Lyra and looked away. Ever since they had that argument in the morning, Lyra has refused talking to him and it was very annoying. He has apologized countlessly, she still wouldn’t talk to him.
He was becoming scared because he has never seen Lyra act the way she did over any issue they have had before.
Bryan put on only his pants and climbed the bed, as he was about to shift close to Lyra, she moved away without looking at him. He sighed and made to cross his hand but she immediately stood up to leave and he quickly held her back.
“Stop all these attitudes Lyra, I have been apologizing… I know I acted like a jealous kid then, I’m sorry,” Bryan said softly, looking intensely at Lyra who was avoiding his eyes.
He waited for Lyra to reply but it never came, which made him feel so hurt. He was trying to plead for forgiveness and tried to act so cool even as Lyra’s silence was pissing him off.
“Bryan just let me go,” Lyra replied simply, not showing if she was angry or sad.
“I’m sorry babe, please forgive me,” Bryan said and stood up. He held Lyra very tight and she started struggling to give up. She surrendered when Bryan refused to leave her.
“I’m sorry… I acted so mean, I was only jealous that he is trying to come back into your life again,” Ryan confessed which made Lyra look at him.
“Why do you think I would give him a chance when I have you, he has already lost me a long time ago and the family I have with you right now is the best gift life has given to me. You always underestimate my love for you by getting unnecessarily jealous of him. I have been done with him a long time ago,” Lyra said and held Bryan’s face.
“I’m scared of losing you. I don’t know how my life would turn out without you being in the picture,” Bryan confessed again and kissed Lyra’s hair. Lyra smiled and looked up at him.
She put her lips on his and started kissing him, Bryan responded and carried her to bed.
As he laid her down and helped her remove her clothes. Lyra said.
“I’m sorry for the attitudes I have been giving you, I took it way more seriously,” She said with a smile.
“It’s nothing honey, all you have to always have in mind is that I love you so much and I will show you how much I keep falling for you each day that passes by,” Bryan said and kissed Lyra’s neck. He uses his tongue to trail down to her collar bone. He sucked on her collarbone and used his teeth to bite softly on it which made Lyra gasp with pleasure.
He chuckled and trailed down to Lyra’s breast, he put the nipple into his mouth and started sucking on it which left Lyra moaning. He proceeded down in between her legs, licking and sucking her while she enjoyed the pleasure she was getting.
After he was done with that, Lyra pushed him down, claiming it was her own turn. She helped him remove his trousers and took his cock into her mouth to give him a blow job.
Half into it, they heard a light knock on the door which made them stop.
“Who’s that?” Bryan asked and a tiny voice replied.
“It’s Myles, Dad.” This made Lyra to let go of Bryan and they quickly put on their clothes. Bryan opened the door and found Myles standing in front of the door.
“What’s the matter honey?” He asked.
“Ryan is having a fever… I just woke up to meet him shivering and sweating profusely under the sheets,” Myles announced.
On hearing this, Lyra rushed out of the room. She didn’t even wait for Myles to finish before she went into their room.
She saw Miley awake and sitting beside Ryan who was still shivering with a sad look on her face. Lyra touched Ryan and felt his temperature extremely high, she started panicking and called Tia but Tia’s phone didn’t go through.
“What am I going to do?” She asked in a panic. Bryan held her shoulder, trying to comfort her that nothing would happen to Ryan.
“Contact his father,” Bryan suggested.
“No, that isn’t a good idea. He would be down worried, I don’t want to add this to the list of his worries and give him sleepless nights,” Lyra explained.
“What about the family doctor?” Bryan asked and Lyra agreed. She died the doctor’s cell phone number and it went through.
“Hello, Mrs Lyra,” the doctor called from the other end.
“There’s an emergency,” Lyra replied quickly without wasting any second.
“Unfortunately, I’m not in town. What’s the emergency?” The doctor asked.
“One of my children is having a high fever and running a temperature,” Lyra replied hurriedly.
“Okay, I will forward a procedure to use in calming the Fever down but if it doesn’t work, you will have to take him to the hospital,” The doctor said.
“No problem Doctor,” Lyra said and the call ended. Her phone beeped and a text came, it was from the doctor. She read the text and applied the procedure and after thirty minutes, the fever subsided and his temperature reduced which made Lyra calm. She hugged Ryan and kissed his forehead.
He was just like one of her children, she couldn’t bear anything happening to him.
“He would be fine Mom,” Miley said and rubbed Lyra’s hand. Myles walked towards her and hugged her waist.
“Ryan would be fine, we are here for him,” Myles added and Lyra smiled weakly.
Bryan left Lyra with the kids and went back to the room. Lyra sat down, watching over Ryan. The twins fell asleep, leaving only her. She didn’t know when she also fell asleep and woke up in the morning.
She saw herself lying on the bed in her bedroom, she became surprised as she remembered sleeping off in the kids room.
“Good morning honey,” Bryan said as he walked into the house with a hot cup of tea. Immediately Lyra inhaled the aroma of the tea, she felt a sharp pain in her head.
“Take the tea away,” she said, trying to make the headache subside by holding her head.
“You need it, it’s medicinal. I know you will be having migraines this morning as you stayed up all night worried about Ryan’s health,” Bryan said and sat beside her. He raised the cup of tea to her lips and urged her to take a sip which she did.
“Where is Ryan, how is he feeling now,” Lyra asked immediately as she swallowed the tea.
“He is okay… I have contacted his father already, he would be coming soon to pick him,” Bryan replied which made Lyra look at him.
“I hope you weren’t harsh but polite,” she said.
“Ask Tia, she was there when I made the call… I sounded as polite as I can to him,” Bryan replied which made Lyra smile.
“Okay, I have to check up on him before his father comes,” she said and got up. She took the tea from Bryan and started sipping it while walking towards the children’s room. She found it empty and started walking down the stairs when she heard voices in the living room.
On getting there she saw Ryan laughing with the children, a happy smile immediately crept up on her face and she walked towards them.
“Good morning Mom,” they chorused and rushed towards her.
Lyra smiled and kissed each of them on the forehead. She pulled Ryan closer and touched him, his temperature was now okay and he was looking very sound.
“How are you feeling?” She asked him with a concerned expression.
“I’m okay… thank you for staying with me last night,” Ryan said with excitement.
“You don’t have to thank me, I was only doing what I would also do to my children,” Lyra replied and rubbed his hair.
“Can I call you Mom?” Ryan asked which left Lara stunned beyond words.
After some minutes of shock, she replied.
“Of course you can, if you want to.”
Bruce cleared his throat as he walked towards them. As Ryan turned and saw him, he smiled and rushed forward to hug him.
“Dad,” he called with excitement and Bruce carried him up. He kissed his forehead as Ryan embraced him.
“Thank you,” he said aloud to Lyra who only nodded her head.
The cook announced breakfast was ready and Lyra asked.
“Won’t you join us for a quick breakfast?”
“No, we would be going now,” Bruce said with a smile. Tia came forward with Ryan’s properties and handed over to Bruce.
Bruce thanked her and turned to leave but Myles stopped them. He came forward with a toy and handed it over to Ryan.
“You can have it,” he said.
Ryan smiled as Bruce took the toy.
“Thank you,” he said with happiness before Bruce carried him out.
