I woke up with Xander in my arms, I rub my eyes which are still wet from the all the crying last night. I couldn't believe what I I learnt last night, my own husband was married to another and had lied about everything. Just the thought made me want to cry again, I pushed the thoughts out of my mind as Xander began to stir and wake up. I kiss his forehead making him giggle lightly.
"I love you mummy," he says smiling.
"I love you too," I say making his smile grow. I lift him up from the bed and hold him close to my chest, I rub the back of his tiny head rocking back and forth.
Few hours later
I open the door holding Xanders hand, I walk him back to his bedroom and sit him down with his toys.
"I'll be back in a few hours honey, I'll see you later," I kiss his forehead and leave his room. I shut his door, I turn around to be faced with Bradley who looked like he had been crying but also very angry. He grabs my arm and forces me to our bedroom. He locks the door and throws me onto the couch. He storms over to me, I duck down thinking he's going to hit me bit to my surprise he takes my hand and sits next to me.
"Lindsey I know what you heard sounds bad but just let me explain," he begs squeezing my hand tightly.
"Why, you're still married to this woman and you're married to me what else could you possibly say," I say firmly cashing his face to look sad again.
"Please Lindsey let me explain," he continues to beg so I just roll my eyes and nod.
"She is still technically my wife but we were married many years ago and all she did was make me miserable all the time so I left her and came back home," he explains.
"Well if you two aren't together why didn't you get a divorce," I reply tears pouring from my eyes again.
"She wouldn't let me so I knew all I could do was leave her," he said wiping the tears from my eyes.
"It still doesn't make this okay, you lied to me and said I was your first," I say turning away from him with embarrassment and shame. He tried to touch my shoulder but I shrug him off.
"What can I do to make it up to you," he asks.
"So what ever you want," I respond and leave the room with Bradley hot on my trail.
"Lindsey come here now," he says trying not to make too much noise. I rush downstairs when I bump into a beautiful woman.
"Sorry I wasn't looking where I was going," I say. Bradley emerges from the stairs with a shocked look and disgusted look on his face which could only mean one thing this was his first wife.
"Bradley how nice to see you," she says making me want to slap her.
"I wish I could say the same, I suppose you've met my wife Lindsey," he says gripping my waist making me feel slightly more at ease. I felt special to him and that was something that I couldn't get from anyone else.
"I see you haven't changed," she smiles, it was so fake.
"Nice to meet you kenzie," she smiles again.
"Umm it's Lindsey," I snap.
"My apologies, Bradley can I speak to you for a second alone," she looks at me when she says that. He looked at me to see if I approved, I nod making him smile softly then his face went tense as he walked off with her.
Few hours later
I was walking around the hall when I hear arguing, it was coming from my room so I listen in.
"Please Bradley come home," I hear the bitch's voice.
"NO I AM HAPPY WITH LINDSEY GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK FUCKING HEAD I WANT A DIVORCE IT IS BECAUSE OF YOU SHE IS UPSET," he shouts louder than I have ever heard him shout.
"Please," she begs. I open the door slightly to see her taking her dress off. I felt my heart skip a beat.
"You think I want you, your fucking crazy, the only thing I want from you is for you to agree to the divorce that is ALL," he shouts slapping her. I open the door to see them both staring at me.
"Lindsey I.." I hold my hand out signalling Bradley to stop, I look at the her with disgust.
"If you think you can charm my husband into getting into bed with you then you have another thing coming you nasty, dusty, evil woman, get out of my castle NOW," I have never acted like this before and Bradley and Catherine both looked extremely shocked.
"Now either you sign the divorce papers and leave or I will deal with you myself," I threaten her.
"He was my husband first," she argues.
"And yet I'm the one who has a baby with him and is carrying his second right now," Bradley's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Fine I'll sign the divorce papers," she whines.
She ran out of my room causing me to breath out, I feel Bradley's arms around my waist, he starts  kissing my neck making me giggle.
"Where did that come from," he asks making me laugh.
"Don't know but I don't expect to tell you I was pregnant again like this," I smile, he turns me around and places his lips on mine.
"I love you, I'm sorry I lied I promise there will be no more secrets between us," he whispers, reassuring me.
"I forgive you I guess," I say, he laughs lightly and presses his lips to mine once again.
