Amy was seated on a sofa with Roserie in her arms. The little one was sleeping soundly. Her mother was overseeing maids packing the few things they had brought down to the room. She looked around, Zach had really kept to his word.
She had the people she loved with her, and Roserie came into this world with both parents present. She looked down at the sleeping child, Amy felt bad for the thoughts she had early on during her pregnancy.
She had thought keeping Roserie a secret from Zach or giving her away to Zach when things are bad was the best but she forgot she would be robbing Roserie of having a family, something Amy always craved.
And she would have missed out on Zach and everything she loved about him. Now all that's left was to get rid of the danger so she can watch her daughter grow without any worry. She sighed at this.
"Madam, everything is ready", a maid said to her politely.
"Alright, thank you", Amy said as she got up.
Zach walked in while stuffing his phone into his pocket. He went to help her with Roserie and took Amy's hand into his.
"I haven't seen the two grandmas", Amy commented. Zach shrugged in response.
"I just talked to George", he changed the subject.
"Everything okay?" She asked with evident worry in her eyes.
He looked at her with worry over her as he shook his head. "They're at the hospital right now. Although things are bad, she's getting the best treatment."
"Thank you", she gave him a small smile and he nodded. "When she's awake, I need to see her."
Zach nodded as he understood. With the baby, she could not travel down there so it was obvious there would be a video call. He felt his heart grow heavy as he looked at Amy. Nothing about Amy was simple, from her background to her enemies. He wished he could take it all away and simplify things for her. But not for long.
"Ready?" He stopped to ask her when they reached their bedroom door.
"Did you.... do something to our room?" She was now smiling with a hint of anticipation shining in her eyes.
"Just a few changes since we have a new addition", he gestured at their daughter with his head. "I can't risk you worrying over her."
Amy was all smiles as she stood on her tip toes and brought his head down to claim his lips. She briefly pressed against them before releasing them to whisper in his face. "Thank you."
"You're welcome", he whispered back with a smile. He loved to see her happy.
Amy exhaled a deep breath then opened the door. She gasped when she saw a small section adorned in baby pink theme. Since their room was so big, it was easy to make room for Roserie. Her bed was brought in, a mini wardrobe for her diapers, clothes, shoes, and blankets. Some fluffy toys and a changing table.
"Everything we need is here except for her bath supplies. Since Mom and Stella are helping out, I can't have them coming in here", he explained.
After all, their bedroom was sacred ground. Amy nodded in agreement. "This is perfect. Thank you."
"Do you want me to run you a bath?" He asked.
"Should I run you a bath? You've been doing too much for me", she said.
"Wait here", he said and turned to leave the room. Not long after, he came back empty handed.
"Where's Roserie?"
"With Dad and Richard", he answered as he walked to her with quick steps. "We only have fifteen minutes tops."
"What are you doing?" She asked in a panic when he started to pull down her off shoulder summer dress from the collar.
"Undressing you. We're bathing together", he explained.
"I..... Zachery, go ahead. I'll go in after you."
"Why?" His brows were furrowed in displeasure.
She fell quiet, unable to explain her insecurities. She had been heavily pregnant until two days ago. She was not confident enough to face him with her new body. She planned to get her confidence back by losing weight and she had not even started. Showering with him now.... she didn't want to know what his reaction would be once he sees her naked.
"Amy", he cupped her chin and made her look at him. All her fears and insecurities, he could tell just from looking into her eyes.
"Do you think my love for you centers around your physical appearance? Is that what you think of me?" He asked gently.
"No... It's just.. I'm not.... I...."
"It's okay. Amy", he moved closer as he cupped the nape of her neck. "I understand how you feel. You don't have to explain yourself to me. But, when I said that I would never let you go, I'll be with you and be there for you, I meant every word. I know you don't feel so confident right now and that's okay. I want you to remember that the woman I fell in love with is not just this", he gestured at her body with a point of his finger. "But this." He tapped at her chest. "I love you Amy, slim and curvy, pregnant, and milf. I love all of you."
Amy buried herself in his chest as she felt her eyes grow teary. "You're too good to me."
"You're too good for me", he rested his chin on her head. He suddenly let go and scooped her in his arms earning a surprised yelp from her. "Roserie won't be asleep for long."
"True", she agreed with a smile as he walked to the bathroom.
When he placed her down, she didn't freeze or stop him from undressing her. She had her eyes closed when he undid the waist trainer. She was so embarrassed. She suddenly felt his lips press against hers and she opened her eyes when he let go.
He was also undressed as he took her hand, leading them to the shower. They stopped right under the head and he looked down at her. He hooked a finger under her chin making her look at him.
Her insecurities were bare for him to see. However, when she searched his eyes, there was nothing but love in them. Why was she so worried in the first place? The way Zach looked at her, it changed, with more love shining in his eyes. No one needed to tell her she was his world as was he to her.
