Promises

Chapter Nineteen

2 WEEKS LATER

Ricky’s P.O.V.:

            “Honey…” I asked as I straightened my tie and sat down at the table with my wife.

            “Hmmm…” my wife said as she continued reading the newspaper.

            “Hasn’t Travis asked you out yet?” I asked, trying to act as nonchalant about the question as best as I could.

            I asked her because I thought it’s weird that Travis is running out of time as ordered by the royal court and yet my wife hasn’t mentioned anything about him trying to win her back…

            Not that I would have allowed it anyway. Travis can date Megan over my dead body. Even then my spirit wolf will still come back to prevent that from happening…

            Megan’s eyes widened a bit at my question and she blinked for a while before answering me.

            “Erm… No… Not yet… Why’d you ask?” she asked as she reached for her glass of plain water.

            “It’s just that Travis was begging to have you back but he hasn’t done anything to do that and it’s already been 2 weeks since the court hearing… I just thought it’s weird.” I shrugged my shoulders.

            Oh well, it’s better off if he decided Megan will be much happier with me…

            “Erm… Oh… Okay…” my wife said as she got up and took her empty plate and glass to the sink to wash them.

            “By the way honey…” I continued. “I’m sorry I can’t accompany you to your ultrasound appointment today. I have a meeting with another pack.” I apologized and she turned around and smiled.

            “It’s okay Ricky. I can go by myself or have Fiona accompany me later.” she said and I chuckled at that.

            “You seem to have grown close to Fiona ever since after your court hearing. She must be good company to have you in such a happy mood nowadays.” I commented as she just smiled softly at me.

            My wife walked me to the door and she kissed my cheek goodbye…

*~*

Megan’s P.O.V. :

            Ricky really scared me when he asked me such a question…

            Travis has already taken me out 5 more times after that first date we had…

            I feel so bad lying to Ricky but… I don’t know why I can’t pull myself away from Travis…

            Initially I was so sure of my feelings to Ricky but… I really just don’t know anymore… Whenever I’m with Travis, I totally forgot about Ricky to the extend when Travis called me his wife on our first date, I didn’t say anything against it…

            I quickly called Fiona after my husband has left and updated her on my lies again.

            “Honey Megan, you’ve gotta make up your mind. Do you want your baby’s daddy or your husband?” Fiona sighed after I explained my situation again.

            “Please Fiona. You gotta cover for me! Travis wants to follow me to my ultrasound appointment today!” I begged and she sighed as she took in a deep breath.
