I glance at the clock beside my bed. Three a.m. Christ, I love my baby
daughter, but I wish she’d sleep for more than an hour at a time. I get out of
bed and go over to Willow’s crib. I know she can’t help it, she’s suffering
terribly with reflux, so I cuddle her to my chest and begin to walk around
the room. The movement seems to calm her.
I stare at the space in my bed where my husband should be, and I sigh.
As usual, it’s empty. Things haven’t been going well between us since I
announced I was pregnant with Willow. We’ve spent a whole year of
arguing, separating, making up, trying, but ultimately, we’re not happy. Not
like before.
That familiar pain fills my chest and tears brim in my eyes. I can’t keep
putting myself through this. Riggs thinks I tricked him into the pregnancy,
but I didn’t, and I’m so sick of repeating myself. Accidents happen, and so
what? We’re married and we already have a kid each, so I didn’t think it
was such a big deal. In fact, I thought he’d be over the moon. Turns out, I
was so very wrong.
He loves Willow, I know he does. The fact he’s not as hands-on as I
expected doesn’t bother me. After all, he’s the president of the Kings
Reapers MC, and lord knows he has a lot of club shit to deal with, but it
hurts my heart that he’s not as invested in her as he could be. And she
adores him, oblivious to his lack of interest in her. Whether it’s his voice or
just the beating of his heart, whenever he cradles her, she’s calm, and boy,
could I do with a night of calm.
She begins to whimper again. I take her blanket from the crib and wrap
her in it then make my way onto the landing. I creep across to Riggs’ son’s
room. Sometimes he’ll jump into bed with Ziggy so he doesn’t wake us, but
Ziggy is lying like a starfish, completely alone.
I check in on Malia, my six-year-old daughter. She’s also deep in sleep.
I head downstairs. The clubhouse is silent for a change. Sometimes
these guys can party all night, but it seems tonight is not one of those
nights. I tap on Riggs’ office door. “What?” he snaps.
I push it open and stick my head around the door. He’s looking relaxed,
lying on his office couch with a whiskey in his hand, and Raven sits at his
desk. Her smile fades. “I was just checking you were okay,” I say. “But I
see I didn’t need to worry.”
“We’re just talking,” says Riggs, looking slightly irritated by my
presence.
“At three a.m.,” I note. “The time when everyone leaves their wife in
bed and chats to other women.”
“I’ll leave you guys to it,” says Raven awkwardly.
“No, you don’t have to go,” Riggs protests, sitting up.
