His One Love

Chapter 54

Natalie's Pov

After arriving home for the night I hopped in the shower making sure I took my time, letting the soothing droplets of water relax my muscles. I know by the time Xander comes home I will be asleep because he texted me to let me know he'll be a little late because the meeting time expanded a bit. Honestly I don't mind being alone although it's been a bit lonely without Xander here. I never realized how much I missed him until he left even if it was for a day.

Stepping out the shower I dry off with a towel before sneaking a glance at my now 4 month baby bump. It makes me happy to know I'm carrying children from the man I love. Sometimes that doesn't happen for most people because sometimes...fathers do leave. And so do mothers. But one thing I know for sure is that there is nothing in the world that could make me leave my children except for death. I want to give my babies what I never really had growing up. And that was a warming and loving family.

As I begin to think about my past I don't realize the tears flowing down my cheeks until I feel a droplet on my foot. I quickly wipe my tears away as I hear a knock on the bathroom door.

"Natalie? Honey would you like me to prepare you a meal? I've taken notice you haven't eaten since you've returned home tonight".

"Only if you don't mind Miss Ana, I'd hate to trouble you tonight for a meal".

"Nonsense! You're eating for 3 and you must eat! I am making sure of that. Now no more fuss I am making you a meal even if you're not hungry. Mr. Moretti would kill me if he knew you didn't eat again tonight." Laughing at her statement we both head downstairs and I take a seat at the stool at the marble bar in the luxurious kitchen as she begins to prepare the food.

After eating a healthy but hearty meal which consisted of a baked potato, broccoli, baked mushrooms and pan fried tomatoes, I thanked Miss Ana (who prefers just Ana) for my dinner before making sure she ate something her self and made my way up to bed. Tucking myself in the sheets I quickly cut off the lights before getting into a comfortable position on my back with one hand behind my head and another on my tummy as I close my eyes, allowing sleepiness to take over.

Xander's Pov

After finally what seemed like days getting back home I allow the guys to take my luggage to the guest room so I don't disturb my slumbering princess, especially since it's 5:00am. Running upstairs I enter my room to the beautiful sight ahead of me. My precious love was sleeping, on her back with a hand over her belly, her beautiful eyes closed as her loose curls sit over her beautiful face. Her plump lips mighty parted. Making my way to her I gently stroke her soft warm cheek with my hand, rubbing my thumb in circles. I use my other to push a stray lock of hair behind ear before leaning down and placing a kiss on her cute button nose and to her soft lips.

I watch as she begins to stir in her sleep, using her small fists to rub her eyes. Why is she so adorable?. Her eyes flutter open as she sets her gaze on me with a sleepy smile. "My king is home. How was your flight and how was the meeting?" She starts to sit up but I gently push her back down.

"You my beautiful angel aren't moving. You're going to get some more sleep and we'll talk about this when the sun comes up."

She frowns up playfully. "The sun is about to come up soon so let's talky."

"No angel. I promise we will in the morning but you need your rest and I'm going to cuddle you until we both wake up okay? I love you so much angel."
