The Third Wife (11 page)

No
one warned me that with the expectation of multiple births came sleepless
nights, heart palpitations and anxiety. Just to name a few of my maladies in
the last few weeks. Doc had warned us that there was a good chance she wouldn't
carry them to term. We had to meet with a
perinatologist
because the pregnancy was considered high risk. Yeah, this helped me sleep
really well at night. Not!

They
were talking C-section but Wildflower was adamant that there was no way. If she
could, she said she wanted to do it naturally. She scoured the Internet for
other couples that had stories like ours and found a few. Which she shared with
me and helped ease some of my anxiety.

She
believed she could make it the whole nine months. I don't know, at twenty-seven
weeks she's already huge. She was having trouble lying down. Her ankles were
swollen a lot and she was irritable as hell. She refused to stay on bed rest
and apart from tying her down there wasn't much I could do.

I
refused to let her go into the nursery where the men had torn down the wall to
add on. That was no place for her in her condition no matter how much she
argued that I was smothering her. I'd had so many missiles thrown at my head in
the last few weeks it's a wonder I don't walk around in a helmet.

I
spend most nights with her now, there's no way I'm leaving her alone.
Especially now when she's getting closer to the time doc says she might go into
labor. She can barely get out of bed on her own these days. I think she must've
gained fifty pounds easy. On her small frame I was worried it was too much but
doc assured me it was okay, and that's all I cared about.

I know it bothers her, my
Wildflower is just a little vain, but she doesn't complain. She says she knows
she has to eat to help our babies be healthier at birth so that's what she
does. I'm so proud of her, eighteen and pregnant with triplets, that can't be
easy on her.

I
had to take Sharon to task a couple days ago when I overheard her calling her a
whale behind her back. She tried playing it off, but I know what I heard. I was
not amused. If Alana had heard that she would've been devastated. She’s very
sensitive these days.

We'd
told them about the triplets after the men had started working on the nursery.
Alana said she wanted to enjoy her peace and quiet for a little while longer. I
should've listened to her. Whatever progress we had made with Arlene seemed to
be vanishing. News about the babies seemed to threaten her in some way. Now she
was back to listening to Sharon.

Sharon
on the other hand had ramped up her campaign against Alana. They think I didn't
know what was going on but I was keeping my eyes on them. It was to the point
where I had one of my moms stay with her during the day when I went to work.
Which they were only too happy to do, but it shouldn't be that way. Darlene and
Bryce were making plans to move back right around the time of the births, which
would be a huge help. But I still felt like a failure because I couldn't seem
to get my household in order. Something had to give.

She
was finally stirring next to me. I’ve only been waiting for like an hour for
her to finally look alive. Before she was fully awake I had my head between her
thighs. She likes having me eat her to a nice climax first thing in the morning
before I get to play. I didn’t mind, though my morning hard on would be raging
by then. I love the taste of her.

“Umm.”
Her fingers came down to play in my hair as she moved her hips beneath my
mouth. I tongued her deep trying to give her as much pleasure as I could. She
spread her legs wider and looked down at me. Before ordering me to stop playing
around and fuck her. I guess she was in a hurry this morning. No worries.

I
climbed up her body and latched onto her nipple as I slid into her nice and
slow. When I’d had my fill of her tit I eased back and lifting both ankles in
my hands opened her wide so I could saw in and out of her at will. The sight of
her protruding tummy was so beautiful. And the knowledge that my children were
even now inside her, made for a heady mix. I wanted to pound into her but knew
that was dangerous even though she begged me to go faster.

“Please Cody?” I shook my
head no.

“Uh uh baby. I’ll make you
cum like this.” She reached down and fingered her clit and made me that much
hotter. It was a close call but I kept my pace nice and slow until I felt her
tighten around my cock. I wasn’t far behind her and couldn’t hold back the loud
roar that escaped me. We were in my bed in the farthest end of the house so
hopefully no one heard. I’d taken to bringing her to my bed at night so I could
keep her near just in case.

What
the others thought of this I didn’t know. I’d done the same for both of them
when their time drew near. But I guess they’d forgotten all of that in the
madness that has since overtaken them since she showed up. I’ve long since
given up feeling any guilt over my feelings. I’ve done all that I can. In the
last few weeks I’ve spread myself thin trying to give each one of them the time
they needed from me. My daughters were happy and looking forward to their
siblings. At least there I had no worries. I’d put a stop to Sharon’s trying to
sabotage Alana’s relationship with the girls too. Slowly but surely I had taken
back whatever power she’d usurped while I was being a shell of myself. It
remains to be seen how she dealt with this.

Wildflower
and I have butted heads a time or two as well. The funny thing is I think I was
harder on her than on them. Because I loved her best I expected only the best
from her. So when she acted up I took it harder then and took her to task for
it. She didn’t take too kindly to that because my little love is a spoilt brat
when she wants to be. But usually I could love her out of her pique.

I’ve also been spending
more time with Sharon because she seems to be having the hardest time with the
changes. After that first time when she’d let it slip that Arlene had
complained about my performance I’ve been very careful not to let it happen
again. There was no reason for complaint among any of them. Though I might have
to up my exercise routine if I wanted to keep up with Wildflower. She’s
insatiable.

“Stop thinking so hard Cody and fuck me again.”

Alana's
baby shower is today. She's made it to thirty-four weeks believe it or not and
she says she's feeling fine. She knows nothing about the party today. She knows
there's going to be one at some point but she has no idea when. Another surprise
was that her girlfriends were coming out from L.A. for the event. They'd been
hiding out at my parents' since this morning.

"Alana
come on, we promised the girls ice cream remember?" That's the ruse I'm
using to get her out of the house so the women could get the house ready. As it
stood they would barely have enough time. I helped her get out of bed and into
the shower, kissing her all the while and telling her how beautiful she was.
Lately she’s been grumbling about the Good Year blimp. But if the amount of
time I spent inside her wasn’t proof that I found her sexy as hell, then
nothing else would.

We were gone for hours. At
least Alana and the girls had a good time. We ended up going to one of those
build a bear places where they built bears for them and the new babies.
"How you doing mama, you hanging in there?"

"Yeah. What color shoes do I have on by the way?" I
looked down to be sure.

 
"You're wearing pink
Chucks."

"Okay then I should be
good to go. Yesterday I put on two different colored shoes, Katie had a
laughing fit over it."

Little Katie started
laughing again. "Mommy Alana was funny."

 
"I bet she was. Did
you help her change her shoes?"

"Nuh uh, we all
weared
two
different shoes
cos
it was just that kind of day,
right mommy Alana?"

"That's right squirt,
we were the rainbow girls."

I
snickered at them. Little Crystal was studiously paying attention to her bear
building. I didn't want to say anything but all the bears were pastel colors,
just saying. They didn't look very masculine to me. When I whispered my
concerns to Wildflower out the side of my mouth she elbowed me and snickered.
"You are so having all girls."

"Hey." I rubbed
her extended tummy. "You won't do that to daddy would you little one? I
know you're in there, don't worry I promise to protect you from your mean mommy
and sisters but I need some help out here buddy, I'm surrounded." She
snorted at me.

"You're such a nut. I
wonder how come I haven't heard from Darlene yet? It's not like her to miss a
call."

"Maybe she got caught up packing. You know how she is about
getting here as soon as possible."

"Yeah, you're probably right. Okay guys we ready? I
feel...oh."

"What, what is
it?" I was ready to jump out of my skin.

"Nothing, just your
kids playing touch football or something in there." I leaned over once
more so I could have a word with my inconsiderate off spring. Which had the
girls in hysterics.

"You in there, this is
your daddy speaking. Be good for your mommy now okay. No playing around in there
and I promise to buy each of you a car for your sixteenth birthday, your
choice."

"Nice bribe dad. That
how you plan on getting them to behave when they get here?"

"Whatever works."

"What about me and Crystal daddy, we get cars too?"

"You bet pumpkin, five
cars coming right up." I tickled the girls to get their minds off of cars
and Lord knows what else.

Alana was up and ready to
go. I don't care how much weight she gains. Which was mostly in her stomach and
breasts by the way; her ass still looked phenomenal. Felt good too. I should
know since I'd been spooned up to it just a few hours ago while I made love to
her. We probably shouldn't be doing that anymore at this stage with three of
them in there. But she seemed to need it a lot lately, and since I could never
get enough of her, oh well.

I
drove up the back way to the house and used the excuse that there were no steps
on this side. Though the front only had four steps, she bought it, I think. Hey
it was the best I could come up with. I couldn't let her see all the cars in
the driveway that would spoil the surprise. I'd already received the text that
everything was set. It was going to be an early party. Four in the afternoon,
my baby was usually in bed by seven or eight these days.

We walked in through the
kitchen and into the house, which was deathly quiet. "Let's go sit and
relax in the solarium babe, you like it in there."

"Sounds good to me,
come on girls, we'll put the bears away later." We had to go through the
informal ballroom to get to the solarium and that's where the party had been
set up. It seems that this party would be having almost as many guests as the
wedding. Since these things were now unisex and the moms had invited everyone
they had ever known.

"SURPRISE."

"Oh crap." Alana squealed before covering her mouth and
she started crying. I hugged her to me and whispered in her ear.

"You okay little
mama?" She nodded against my chest and clutched at me. I swayed back and
forth with her in my arms and smiled over her head to let the others know she
was okay, just a little overwhelmed.

She
lifted her head and screamed when she saw her friends. I guess she forgot the
room full of people. "What up bitches?" At least people laughed. I
hid my smile behind my hand, wouldn't do to encourage her. The women in the
room seemed to surge forward and she was gone. They took her to some throne
like chair that was decorated with bows and ribbons and glitter and sat her
down with a crown on her head and an ottoman for her feet, for which I was
grateful.

There
was literally a mound of gifts against one wall that seemed to have spilled
over from a table. Everything was festive and bright. Wildflower seemed to have
caught a second wind. There were other kids here for the girls to play with.
While the adults were knee deep in baby talk and congratulations. I think I
smiled through the whole thing.

Alana's
friends were just as...colorful as she is. There was Sabrina, Paula and Jackie.
Their gifts were more focused on Alana and post birth if you know what I mean. I
think I blushed a lot while their gifts were being opened. Until Alana finally
got the gist of the gifts and stopped opening them, saving them for later.
Surprisingly the moms and some of the older ladies in attendance groaned and
begged her to continue; have mercy.

The three troublemakers
hooted with laughter. At the end of the party when the guests had dispersed is
when I decided to give her my gift, or at least one of them.

"Come on mama"
The only ones left were my wives, our parents and her friends who were staying
for a few days. I led everyone up to the nursery where I had had the men finish
things up so I could bring in a decorator to make the place look like a dream.
No one had been allowed in this room. I'd kept it under lock and key for the
big reveal.

I opened the door and
everyone oohed and aahed. It was spectacular. I let Alana go in ahead of
everyone else. She ran her hands over the cherry wood of the three cribs that
were next to each other and touched the material of the changing table.

"You like it wildflower?"

"I love it." We were in our own little bubble.
