Sophie’s pov
Is he seriously trying to get down and dirty with an aching dick?
I looked at Aiden like he had completely lost his mind.
Honestly, I think he did. How can he think of sex in his situation?
Suddenly Aiden snorted and chuckled louder. “Your mind had wandered to that place where you’re
moaning didn’t it?” He asked in amusement.
Realizing that he was only joking, I smacked his thigh. “Be fucking serious for once Aiden!” I snapped
and rolled my eyes yet bit the inside of my bottom lip to stop myself from smiling.
He shrugged. “I had to crack that tension somehow.”
I rolled my eyes and told him to hold the pack of peas when Ashton starts to stir.
Aiden turns around to watch me and his son on the bed with a
small smile on his face.
I was trying to get Ashton to go back to sleep.
But when I noticed Aiden’s stare, I got nervous and asked. “What?”
I tucked my hair behind my ear and ripped my gaze from his.
“You’re a good mom.” He said with honesty swimming in his
voice.
His words had my heart fluttering lightly.
I blushed because of his words and the weight of his stare.
“Thank you,” I whispered.
Suddenly he questioned. “Was it hard raising him alone?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI had not expected his question and it rendered me a bit speechless. I’m trying to regain my speech as
his eyes had not once left my face.
I took in a calming breath and answered him honestly. “At first. I was a new mom and I didn’t know
what to do. My foster mom who never had a baby of her own wasn’t that much educated in the
breastfeeding department. It took a lot of trial and errors to get it right. A few months after giving birth to
him was the worst. My body changed, my hormones, and I found myself going through postpartum
depression.”
I looked at him and continued. “It didn’t help that I couldn’t work to help with the bills and food. Mila and
Ria did it all on their own. It was kind of difficult to save for pampers and necessities at a point.
Newborn stuff was really expensive. It was hard to get everything he needed. ”
I tore my eyes away from his when his eyes began to storm. I knew I shouldn’t have told him those
parts. Now he’d be even angrier at me for keeping Ashton’s existence from him.
“But those few months were also the best. I got to learn many things about being a mom. What it takes
to be one. It wasn’t
an easy job,” My eyes fall on my sleeping son, and I rake my fingers through his soft hair.
“But it was rewarding. Especially having to see his happy face every day. Ashton was not a fussy baby
and he made the journey easier.” I smiled at my son who was the exact replica of his father who sat
watching us without a flicker of his eyes.
My heart panged and I let out a heavy breath while sweeping my gaze back to him. “I’m so sorry I
made you miss all those times Aiden. If I could go back in time I would. I now know what a huge
mistake I made in the past and promise to not do it again.”
Aiden looks at me intensely for a silent few and then
murmured. “You’re a strong woman Sophie. Especially having to take care of Ashton all on your own as
a teen mother. There are things I regret in my past, but being with you and creating him was not one of
them. I’m happy it’s with you and not anyone else.” He admitted, his eyes falling on Ashton.
His words had my heart halting in its beats for a while and I nearly fainted there and then.
I had not expected them. A lot of his words this late afternoon I had not expected.
But these were by far the most shocking.
“Aiden-
Ashton stirs and I stop. I try to put him back to sleep but this time he wasn’t having it.
With his drowsy little self crawling onto my lap, I kissed his
forehead and looked at his father who stared at us fondly.
His stare had my cheeks flushing.
“I think he’s hungry,” I said, getting off the bed with Ashton in my arms. He’s still a little sleepy and rests
his head on my
chest.
“I’ll be back-
“Can I hold him?” Aiden suddenly asked, his eyes not flitting away from Ashton who yawned cutely.
I looked down at his crotch and he pulled the frozen pack of peas away from his dick. It leaves a wet
patch on his sweats.
“Are you sure you’re able to? Ashton likes to kick when he’s a bit exhausted and wants to fight his
sleep. I don’t want him injuring you again. ” I voiced out my concern, wincing slightly.
Aiden nods, looking down at his son in amusement. “Guess he took that from me too. And I’m fine
enough to hold him, Sophie.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen he sees that I don’t look convinced he utters.
“My dick feels better so I don’t think I’m in need of this anymore.” He holds out the packet of peas my
way.
Gnawing on my lips, I nod and pass Ashton to him while I took the frozen pack of peas.
“By the way, when did you change? In fact, where did you get the extra clothes?” I asked in curiosity as
I watch him hold Ash close to him and made sure to not have him touch the wet
patch on his sweats.
Aiden responded without lifting his head. “I had Mitch bring some extra clothes for me when you were
asleep. I’m
spending the night as well.”
I shook my head, not even bothering to ask him why he just decided to stay over. I knew that he’d just
end up getting his
way anyway.
Trailing his fingers down Ashton’s cheeks, he looks up and grins happily. “I still can’t believe we made a
little human Soph,” He whispered in awe, looking back down at Ash who smiled up at Aiden sleepily as
if knowing exactly what his father had just said.
I smiled fondly at the clear affection he had for Ashton. “A little human who’s your exact replica.”
Aiden lifts his gaze, eyes connected with mine, and with a wink, he jokes. “I think I pumped you too
much of me.”
I rolled my eyes. “Oh my God, you can’t be serious for once,” I said in exasperation, turning around to
leave the room.
Aiden laughs and when I closed the door behind me, I couldn’t stop the wide smile from spreading on
my cheeks.
I love this side of Aiden much more than the devilish side.
