A Love After Marriage

Three

Author's POV:

The moment when Bea came back to the apartment, the room was dark and quiet, and she knows Caitlin and Isabelle were already asleep. It has passed midnight now and at first she planned to stay in the hospital with Jhoanna. But she insisted to stay there alone and without realizing it, she has came back to the apartment. She doesn't know why she is here, but after meeting her wife in the hospital today, there is this very unfamiliar and strange emotion clouding her mind for the whole day.

She went into Isabelle's room first, and her heavy heart instantly got better when she saw her beautiful princess. Trying not to wake her up, she gently pulled the comforter to cover her exposed upper body. She then stood there as her expressionless face slowly painted with a soft smile. Just by watching her sleeping face, her heart inexplicably turned soft. With her body slowly leaned downward, she brought her hand to caress her chubby little cheek and the smile on her face deepened.

She couldn't deny that genetic is a very strange yet wonderful thing. She agreed that both Caitlin and her are very good looking and because of that, Isabelle has inherited their perfect gene. She has a tiny, pointy high nose like her, her eyes and lips are exactly the same as her mother. With this perfect combination, Isabelle looked breathtakingly beautiful.

And this beautiful little angel is her daughter, Isabelle Corrine Viray De Leon. Just by staring at her, she suddenly felt a sense of pride welled inside of her. She started to think the accident that happened on that night was not fully a mistake after all. At least, it gave them a beautiful daughter.

Taking one last lingering glance at Isabelle, Bea turned around and walked to the door very softly. After she came out from Isabelle's room, she then made her way to her bedroom.

When she entered, the lights in the room was dimmed and she saw a slim body that is fast asleep on the huge king size bed. She remembered. Caitlin is afraid of dark. That is why the light is always dimmed without turning off even when she is sleeping.

She didn't stood there for long before she went into the bathroom and take a shower. After about twenty minutes, she came out from the bathroom in a white bathrobe.

Caitlin slowly opened her eyes when she felt a soft movement on the other side of the bed. A soft and almost silent gasp escaped her lips when the familiar fresh scent crept into her nose. She knows she is back. In fact, the moment when she walked into the room, she has already woken up. She just pretends that she is still sleeping because she couldn't bring herself to believe that she actually came back when Jhoanna and Daniel are still in the hospital.

Feeling her heart pounding hard against her chest, she closed her eyes again, trying hard to calm herself down. But before she could even steady her thought and her heavy breathing, she felt another movement beside her and the next second she was already pulled into a warm embrace.

Her eyes fluttered open again as her naturally reaction was trying to break free. She didn't let her succeed but tightened her arms around her even more. A soft chuckled echoed into her ear as she turned her around to lie flat on the bed before she pulled herself up and hovered on top of her.

Caitlin held her breath as their eyes locked into each other. Her breathing instantly turned rough and heavy, an obvious sign of need is evident in her deep gaze. She knows what is going to happen next.

"I want you Caitlin." She said. And with three simple words, she makes her intention clear. She wants her... not her heart... but her body.

Caitlin bit her lower lip, gazing deeply into her eyes. They both know that she doesn't love her. Although they are married but there is no love in this relationship. She agreed to marry her because of one business deal. She agreed to marry her because Jhoanna has accepted Nico's proposal at that time. And she agreed to marry her because no matter who she married, it wouldn't change the fact that her heart has already died the moment she lost the love of her life. For her, she is just a wife in name, the mother of her daughter. Nothing else.

She still remembered the first year when they first got married was the most painful moment in her life. She ignored her and treated her like a stranger. If not because of that night when she was drunk, they will not have Isabelle now.

After their daughter was born, she thought she will never touch her again but she was wrong. Maybe because of her physical needs, whenever she came back, whenever she is safe to be touched, she will not hesitate.

Does she has a multiple personalities disorder? She doesn't quite understand her sometimes. In front of Jhoanna, she is always the gentle and caring Bea De Leon. In front of her, she is cold and expressionless. But at a time like now, she will completely turned to a different person. Looking at the way she stare at her and the aggressive way she wants her, it sometimes gave her a wrong thought, a false hope that she actually feel something for her too. Or maybe... she is just attracted and addicted to her body.

Letting out a sharp exhale, Bea moved her hand up to cup her chin, forcing her to look at her. "I don't like the way you lost your focus when you are around me." Her voice is deep and hoarse.

"Ahmmm.." She bit her lip and kept her gaze low. "Pagod lang ako."

Bea smirked inwardly as her eyes slowly dropped to her lips. "Don't worry. I'll try not to make you move too much. You can just leave the tiring part to me."

And before Caitlin could react, she urgently leaned over and captured her lips within her, immersing herself into her.
