Lai

Months later

“Come on, Dom. Push, baby. Push!” I encouraged her.

I recorded her at-home water birth. We all decided to not know the baby’s gender until he or she was born. I was against it at first, but I jumped on board at the last minute. Just like it took a life and death situation for me to see what was most important. I loved both Sur and Dom. There was no way I should’ve even thought about separating us. My selfish needs had a hold on me. Pussy made me want to give up everything that was good for me so I could live a selfish life.

Had it not been for Sur, I wouldn’t even be able to live in my truth in a healthy way. The kind and selfless soul that he was made him the most wonderful person I’d ever met. Sur was a man of character and substance, and the best fucking companion a woman like me could be blessed with. When I saw Mariya’s crazy ass charge Sur and Dom with her large blade, I knew I could never live without them. There was no place in this world I would rather be than with them.

I hated that things turned out the way they did for Mariya. She was once a good person. Heartbreak and jealousy had apowerful way of fueling people to avenge whatever mistreatment they felt they received. Unfortunately for Mariya, it didn’t go as she planned. I killed that bitch, and I’d do it all over again to protect my lovers. Once the investigation was over, including the discovery of Zay’s decomposed body, and the trial ended, we could all breathe.

Not only were Sur, Dom, and myself able to breathe again, all that craziness brought us back together. I’d lost sight of what was most important. When the dust settled, I apologized to both Sur and Dom. Those two welcomed me with opened arms as if I didn’t almost ruin our relationship. I now saw the bigger picture.

Sur and I divorced. He was right. Sur deserved to be happy and relish in healthy love every day. Dom was that person for him. She fulfilled him in ways I never could. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to. I’d always known who I was. I could never give Sur what he wanted and needed because he genuinely was not the person for me.

He filled a void in me in the healthiest way possible, but it still wasn’t enough. I’d lived in the closet so long that when I came out, I was hungry for one thing only. I pushed away the one person that knew me better than anybody. I would always regret the way I mistreated Sur. I divorced him so he could marry the woman that truly loved him for him. It came as a shock initially when he announced that he wanted to marry Dom. I was scared and felt left out. What would I do if they married? I felt abandoned just at the thought. In the end, I made the right decision. Nothing had changed afterward except for the fact that Sur and Dom loved me even more.

They were married now, and we all still made love together. Both of us pleased Dom. Sometimes, when that liquor hit me, Sur and I pleasured each other orally, but it didn’t go past that. Now that our baby was about to enter the world, I was more than ready to fulfill my needs as his or her second mom, provider,bestie, and so much more. The sound of Dom’s cries filled the room, and I exited my thoughts.

Surtain

I sat behind Dom in our Jacuzzi tub and encouraged her to keep going. My mind ran rampant as I watched the clear water turn murky and red. Blood slowly seeped from her, and I knew our baby would be here soon.

“Come on, beautiful. You can do this. Just one more push,” I motivated Dom.

Our midwife sat in front of Dom. Giselle pushed her legs apart a little more. “Come on, mama. You can do it. Give me one more big push. Inhale and exhale then push.”

Dom nodded adamantly. She inhaled a big breath of air before she exhaled, pushing out our baby.

“Ahh!” she screamed.

Giselle quickly reached down and grabbed our child. Seconds passed before the cries of life filled the room.

“Mamas and daddy, I present to you Baby Emry.”

It was a girl. We had a fucking daughter. Giselle handed me the scissors. I looked at Lai and nodded for her to join me.

Tears rolled down her face as she came closer with the camera. She placed her hand on mine, and together, we cut our baby girl’s umbilical cord.

Hours had passedand mommy and baby were knocked out. I held little Emry in my arms as I rocked her softly in her room. My eyes were glued to her. A deep obsession had formed already,and I’d only known Emry for a few hours. My eyes traveled over her round face and chubby cheeks, brown skin, and tiny hands she kept balled up. How could such a little being have complete control over me already? How could I ever say no to my baby girl?

A lone tear escaped my eye and rolled down my cheek. I had now found another girl that would love me unconditionally. First, it was her mama and soon her. That was all I ever wanted—to be loved and give love. Now, I was surrounded by so much love. I sniffled and kissed the top of Emry’s hat. She smelled so clean and fresh. It was a fragrance I hoped I never forgot.

There was a light knock on the door. Lai walked into Emry’s nursery and took the seat across from me.

“Hey. I came to give you a break.” She held out her arms. I gently transferred Emry over to her.

Lai made sure she’d secured Emry to her chest before she slowly rocked in her chair. She beamed at her daughter.

“What a beautiful little angel we have.”

“Amen to that. Emry is one of the best decisions I ever made. I know she’s only a few hours old, but all of a sudden, I can’t imagine my life without her.”

“Same here. Being a father looks good on you, Sur.” Lai looked up at me finally. “You deserve this moment. How do you feel?”

I grinned and stretched my arms and legs. “Tired but fantastic. All the things I ever wanted in life are finally here, and I have you to thank for it.”
