Chapter 77 – MINE
Monica’s POV
A MONTH LATER
It’s been over a month since Ethan came over to see the kids. He has been friendly and very playful with them. Mason has managed to like Ethan and Mia, but Macy, on the other hand has decided to be with Nicholas.
We were having a picnic in the park and Nicholas had booked the whole day in the pack. I was setting the snack we were going to have when I heard Macy’s scream. Turning my head, I saw Mia trying to calm her down, but Macy just didn’t want Mia carrying her.
“Give her to me” I ordered as I reached Macy, who instantly leaned in, wanting me to carry her from Mia.
Macy still hasn’t gotten used to Mia and Ethan. She prefers I or Nicholas touching her and whenever Ethan or Mia tries to touch her, she screams and starts crying, and I’ve come to realize that she doesn’t like them.
“I didn’t do anything. I just wanted to play with her”, Mia said, her voice calm and laced with sadness.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
“I know but Macy still hasn’t gotten used to you or Ethan, so please you have to give her time to adjust to your presence,” I said, patting Macy on her back as she wrapped her little hands around my neck gently.
“Can we talk?” Mia said anxiously, her gaze on her feet.
“About what?” I asked in curiosity.
“About us. I know I’ve made mistakes, and I’ve done horrible things to you Monica, and I regret everything. I’m sorry Monica. I’m sorry for taking Ethan from you and destroying your marriage, I’m sorry for betraying you when you showed me nothing but love, I’m sorry for causing you pain, I’m sorry for hurting you” Mia uttered, her voice trembling as she fumbled with her fingers. But for some reason, I doubted her
“Are you sorry, or you’re just pretending?” I asked with a serious face, and she raised her head, her teary brown eyes staring back at me.
“I’m truly sorry Monica,” she uttered, and I stared at her intently, searching her eyes for a hint of truth.
“I forgive you, Mia. It’s all in the past. Let’s forget about it” I said, and walked past her with Macy in my arms.
Nicholas and Ethan joined us and we all started the picnic. I sat very close to Nicholas, who took Macy from me and placed her in her stroller.
We had lots of snacks, food, and red wine. It was just a small outing we had planned to do with the kids. Mason sat in between Mia and Ethan and I couldn’t help but feel a little jealous when I saw him giggle or laugh with them.
For a moment, I felt they had managed to take my son away from me. “Mason” I called and he turned to look at me, a cute smile on his face, “Come to Mama,” I said, and he giggled once more before slowly crawling to where I sat.
The kids were growing very fast and they could hear and understand us when we spoke.
“Why did you call him? Wasn’t he fine with us?” Mia asked, clearly upset that I took Mason from them.
“I just want to feed him” I lied, my voice confident.
“I can do that. You just have to give me his feeding bottle” Mia said, stretching her hand towards me so I gave her the feeding bottle.
“No that’s not what I mean. I mean I want to breastfeed him” I uttered, not willing to let Mason go to them.
“There’s no problem with that. Once Mason is done eating, he can come over here and sit with us” Ethan said, trying to remove the tension that was already building up.
I smirked as I saw Mia’s hands in a fist, staring daggers at me. Whenever they were around, Mason often spent time with them and I couldn’t help but feel jealous that they were taking my son from me. Mia and Mason were getting too close, and I wasn’t comfortable with that.
I took out my boobs while using my hand to cover it partly, and I placed Mason on my thigh and directed the nipples to his mouth. I knew Mason would never turn his head from his food and that was why I lied that I wanted to feed him.
Mason could eat the whole day and would still be hungry. He was a foodie and his favorite thing was my boobs.
“Get your eyes off my wife”, Nicholas growled beside me and I fixed my gaze on him, but his eyes were on something else. I followed his gaze and saw Ethan’s lustful eyes on my boobs. I couldn’t help but feel disgusted.
Ethan’s gaze landed on me and then moved to Nicholas, who was already gritting his teeth. “She was once mine before she became yours. There’s nothing to hide because I’ve seen everything about her” Ethan uttered sharply, and before I could say anything, Nicholas landed a punch on his face.
I gasped in shock as Ethan retaliated and pushed him hard in his chest. I knew this wasn’t going to end well so, I instantly removed my nipples from Mason and placed him in his stroller.
“Honey, don’t pay attention to him. Please let this go” I uttered as I quickly stood in front of Nicholas with my two hands on his chest, trying as much as possible to push him backward and prevent him from moving to where Ethan stood.
“This isn’t the first time you’ve looked at my wife in unpleasant ways but I’m going to warn you, Ethan, if you do this again, I will make sure it’s the last time you look at her that way” Nicholas warned then his hard glare landed on me and I couldn’t help but swallow a lump as chills ran down my spine.
His gaze gradually softened as his thumb caressed my cheeks and I couldn’t help but close my eyes, leaning in on his touch. It was as if we were the only ones in the pack and I had completely forgotten about Mia and Ethan.
I opened my eyes when he stopped caressing my cheeks and I noticed Nicholas’s gaze lingering on my half-opened chest. I could see his gaze darkening with arousal.
I just stared at his mesmerizing blue eyes, and before I could think of anything, he crashed his lips on me. His soft lips moved in rhythm with mine as we engaged in a slow, passionate kiss. Forgetting that Ethan and Mia were watching, Nicholas grabbed my left ass and I moaned, leaning on his body and craving for more.
Nicholas broke the kiss and I reached towards him, intending to continue, but he only just smiled and stared at me and that’s when it dawned on me. Ethan and Mia were watching the whole scene.
I felt like burying myself in a hole and I couldn’t help but hit Nicholas on his chest with my hand in a fist. I was embarrassed and shy.
“She is mine, Ethan, and only me can make her feel this good so BACK OFF”, Nicholas yelled, his eyes fixed on Ethan with a smirk on his lips.
