“Oh my goodness, I would never do that. Don’t you just hate it when random people just want to touch your stomach all because you’re pregnant,”
“Oh my god, thank you! You’re the only person that seems to understand how that feels!” I exclaimed.
“As I said, I was in your shoes not too long ago, so I know exactly how you feel. Now you rest, and my team and I can set up around you for the time being,”
“Thank you, truly,”
“It’s no problem at all,” I smiled and let out a deep sigh and rested my head against the back of the chair again. I could hear people working around me, and the woman explaining to them that I was pregnant, and they seemed to be more than okay with it. I closed my eyes again, and just concentrated on my pup. He or she was very restless and was kicking more than normal, and one point, he or she kicked me hard, making my eyes jolt open, but then they did, I was met with the most stunning teal eyes and immediately Kaleigh started to stir,
MATE! It’s our mate!
“Miss are you okay?” he asked me. I couldn’t answer I was in so much shock. Wyatt was right in front of me. He was just as handsome as ever. Seeing in front me of like this had to be a dream. This had to be a dream. There was no way in hell Wyatt was in front of me like this.
“Sir, is everything alright?” I heard another familiar voice. I looked behind Wyatt and I saw Angelo. Oh god, this wasn’t a dream.
“Miss are you okay?” Wyatt asked me again.
“Fine, I’m perfectly fine,” I finally answered.
“Are you sure, you seemed to be in pain a second ago,”
“It’s nothing, my baby, my baby just kicked me really hard,” I replied. Wyatt’s eyes went down to my belly, and I could have sworn I saw guilt and longing in his eyes.
“Are you alright?” he asked me, and I just nodded my head. “I’m sorry to have to do this, but we really need this seat back,”
“It’s fine, I’m all rested now,” I said and stood up. Wyatt immediately reached his hand to help me, but I flinched,
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you, I just wanted to help you to your feet,” I gave him a small smile as he helped me stand. Of course, Wyatt is being nice to me, he doesn’t realize that it’s me. He thinks I’m just some pregnant brunette and not his ex-mate. This isn’t fair, I want to speak to Blade.
Stop it, Kaleigh. Our bond with them is broken. Wyatt and Blade don’t love us anymore. Remember, you said so yourself. That’s why we left.
She whimpered in the back of my mind and settled down.
“Are you sure you’re okay?” Wyatt asked me.
“I’m fine, thank you,” I said and turned to leave, but I turned so suddenly that I had forgotten Angelo was there and bumped right into him knocking me down.
“Whoa, careful,” I felt a pair of strong arms holding me and the smell of fresh rain immediately flooded my senses. Feeling Wyatt’s arms around me made my heart beat a million miles a minute and it felt like it was going to burst. What I give to be able to in Wyatt’s arms like this again. For him to hug me, kiss me, love me again, but all those feelings were pushed down when I still didn’t feel the sparks. Just then, my pup gave the hardest kick ever making me wince and slightly cry out. What the hell was up with my baby? With the way Wyatt was holding me, I knew he felt it too. I couldn’t stop the stray tear that fell. I quickly wipe it away hoping no one saw it, and gently pushed Wyatt away.
“I’m sorry, I can be such klutz sometimes,” I say and straighten myself. Wyatt looked at me, and then down at belly and I knew he felt the pup kick.
“Do you need help finding your husband?” Wyatt asked.
“Oh, I’m not married,”
“Are you here with anyone? The father of your baby perhaps?”
“No, he’s not in the picture. I left him because he hurt me,” I answered. “I came with my aunt. I really should go look for her. Thank you for catching me, and I’m sorry if I was in the way,” I quickly turned and went to go find Olivia. I needed to get out of here. I needed to get away from Wyatt. Seeing him, having him touch me, smelling his scent brought, and knowing that he felt his pup kick brought on so many emotions, I thought I was going to explode.
I couldn’t stop the tears that started free falling from my eyes as I tried to find Olivia. Thankfully, I didn’t have to look far, as she found me instead,
“Oh my goddess, there you are,” she said. “We have to go, Renz just told me that…”
“Wyatt’s here,” I interrupted.
“You already saw him,”
“I didn’t just see him, I talked to him, he touched me, and I felt his arms around me. This is too much, I want to go home,”
“Okay, okay, let’s go get the car and I’ll take you home,” Olivia helped me get outside and William went to go get the car for us. He immediately knew that Olivia found me too late and that I had already had my run-in with Wyatt. Even though Wyatt couldn’t recognize me, it still hurt seeing him. By the time William brought the car around, I was a mess and couldn’t stop crying. Thankfully, Olivia was able to tell people it was pregnancy hormones to which everyone was understanding.
I cried the entire ride home. I didn’t think that seeing Wyatt would make me so emotional, but after not seeing him for two months, and him seeing me pregnant, feeling his touch, hearing his voice, and smelling his scent was just too much to hand all at once. I had cried so hard, that Olivia had to practically carry me up to our condo. Thank the heavens for elevators.
When we got inside the condo, I had cried everything out of my body and had no strength left. Olivia helped me out me of my clothes and into something more comfortable and laid me down in my bed. I was so exhausted that I couldn’t stop myself from falling asleep, only the sleep was going to be anything but peaceful.
***Wyatt’s P.O.V.***
Seeing that pretty brunette with green eyes was something I didn’t expect. I had to admit that she was quite the looker, but nothing compared to Rylee, at least that’s what my heart says, not so much my mind. Hearing that she left the father of her child because he had hurt her only reminded me of Rylee and the fact that she too left me because I had hurt her. I guess there were a lot of women out there that no matter how much they loved their mate, they would leave them if when pregnant to save themselves the pain. I felt that sudden sting in my heart thinking about that.
What was strange though was that I felt drawn to this brunette even though I didn’t know her, and when I held her in my arms, I felt her baby kick and it was hard from what I could tell. For some odd reason, feeling it kick made my heart flutter, almost as I was feeling my own pup kick. What I would give to feel my pup kicking inside of Rylee’s stomach.
“Mr. Valencia, we’re ready when you are,” the team lead for my design team said.
“Great, let’s get started,” I said with a smile. The entire day comprised of meeting with different vendors, patrons, presentations, and lunch. Although my mind was all over the place, I couldn’t seem to get my mind off of the brunette that I had met today. Something about her seemed off, and yet familiar at the same time, especially when I held her in my arms, it was like, I had felt her body in my arms before, which was strange since I had never met the girl until today.
Thankfully, I had a lot of work to keep me busy and keep my mind on more pressing matters, like signing new business contracts, and enticing new clientele to hire my company as the architecture behind any projects they may have. Thankfully, we signed six new individual customers and eight business customers. It was a great day, and the models we had laid out definitely got a lot of interest from some of the other big players that were there.
As we were cleaning up and getting ready for tomorrow, I was approached by a woman with hair blacker than night and blue eyes.
“Can I help you?” I asked her.
“Are you Wyatt Valencia?” she asked with a big Russian accent.
