Love in the Dark

"Sorry the test was negative "The family doctor, Mr. Charles told me and my heart sank, muttering a thank you in a sullen tone, I rose and exited the office. I had mistaken some signs to be symptoms of pregnancy but I was wrong. I wanted to get pregnant ,I would do just anything to get pregnant.

Although my husband was a wreck in bed and barely satisfied my sexual needs ,my yearning for a child of my own overshadowed his flaws. I didn't care if I reached my orgasms or if he went into me and ejaculate after a few thrusts, leaving me unsatisfied and empty, what mattered to me now more than life itself was being a mother

We have been married for six years and our courtship had been sex-free. Not that any of us was a virgin but I had sworn myself to celibacy and had been surprised and glad when God has brought the way a man who stated that no sex until marriage, but little did I know that I was not due to religious beliefs but simply because he never wanted me to discover how terrible he was in satisfying a woman. No foreplay, no dirty talk, just spread my thighs, let himself in and in less than two minutes he was done, rolling off to turn his back on me and then you hear him snoring away leaving me sad, angry unsatisfied, and depressed.

In our first year, I had hope that I would conceive within months but nothing happened. I made frequent visits to the hospital for checks up but my husband never agreed to follow me no matter what. He has told me that he was fine and I must be the one with the problem. The pressure from our families was mounting, especially from his mother who calls me almost every month to find out if I had conceived.

Society too wouldn't give me breathing space and soon began to conclude that I was barren and I must have fucked up my womb while I was in college from excessive drug use or series of abortions But that was not true. I have never aborted before nor abused any drug but people will say what they believed anyway and other women including some of my friends seized opportunities to indirectly remind me of my childlessness.

I prayed. I cried. I fasted. I begged God for a solution but the answers weren't forthcoming until I overheard my husband on the phone and realized that his mother has been pressuring him into getting a second wife. His friends were also secretly advising him to get a random girl pregnant since he a married for a wife. I was helpless and on the verge of losing my marriage soon.

One Certain day, I decided to do a full and thorough clean-up of the house and that was when I discovered a folded paper in the inner pocket of my husband's old suit. I took it out and much to my chagrin realized that he had gone on a test without telling me and was diagnosed with low sperm count. so he was the one at fault all long and yet, People pointed fingers at me!

I stalked into the sitting room to confront him and he began to pleas and cry. He begged me not to divorce him and he didn't tell me before we married because he was afraid to lose me and he's yet to understand what's wrong with him coz he knows himself but for the past few years ,he's been battling on it secretly and looking for solutions yet I suffered accusations upon accusations while my husband who was the real culprit remained unscathed.

I wanted to scream! why would he leave me in the dark for so long and let me go through emotional torture on a matter that I was innocent about? He told me that if I left him and even he remarried and still could not get his other wife pregnant, people would surely get to find out the fault was from his side in the first place and he didn't want to become a laughing object. Fuming! , I sat down and he came to me and told me he wanted to ask me for a favor and that he would have asked a long time ago but he didn't know how to present it And then my husband said that I could go and get pregnant and he would happily father the child. I was stunned but seeing the look on my face, he added, perhaps trying to tempt me. I know you still have little feelings for your Ex, if it has to be him, I wouldn't mind, just don't tell when you eventually sleep with him, all I need to know is when you conceive.

I couldn't believe my ears. To say that I was shocked was an understatement "I will never do such a thing! I Snapped back.

He remained pensively quiet for a while then asked "What about Ben "?

I gave him a Stern look "What about him? I asked. Ben was his best friend." Do you ......um.........he cleared his throat "um..... Do it with him? He stammered. I trust him more and his health status is sound.

What! I flared up, joining up to my feet "you're asking me to sleep with your best friend to get pregnant?

He slowly rose with a guilty look, I know you'd very much like we to adopt but giving birth to a baby will convince people better. Nobody has to know. it will be secretly kept between the three of us, please Annabel " He implored.

" I can't do it and I won't do it," I said and stomped away.

"Think about it honey" it's for our own benefit and moreover to stop people's bad ideas about you especially my mom.

I was just speechless, I couldn't think straight , million thoughts where running through my mind ,I still loved my husband even when he hided the truth from me for so long ,He came closer to me,hold my hands and apologized for making me go through such emotional torture,but not his own free will to do so but faith . I could sense the tone of disappointment in his voice ,his hands where shaking and he couldn't raise his head up.

I felt for him, but I still can't help it " Have you talked to your friend ?

Yes Honey ! I did some months back and he agreed " He snapped back .

(Surprised ; He agreed ? I asked , That's a rush reply from his best friend, I Mummered

Well I will give you feedback by tomorrow morning,let me give it a deep thought , My husband feeling Excited " Please honey think about it very well , should I also order coffee to refresh your memories " He asked jokingly ?

Till tomorrow , try and don't get over excited about it ,I chipped in and left .

It was very early in the morning,my husband woke me up with a breakfast, I was surprised coz he had never did that since I married him,He pecked me and bring the food closer to me, I already knew he's motive for putting up those acts .

Ok fine! I will do it , can you let me have peace of mind , I pleaded ?

Ofcourse , He was Amused , thanks baby,I always knew you'd never fail me , I will arrange for it immediately ,He replied happily and left .

I feel bit happy and Anxious as well, his best friend is going to see my nakedness but what I can do, I crave for a child so bad , am going to do it regardless anything standing on my path .

later in the day , my husband's best friend Ben visited, I was so ashamed to talk properly with him , I don't know how to appear before him ,I decided to remove pride and greet him.

Hey Ben ! you're here , welcome I greeted and headed straight to bring drinks for them while I walk as fast as my leg could carry .

"Annabel" Ben called me? fear gripped me, I wanted to act like I didn't hear it but on second thought I had to halt and know why he had called , yes ! any problem?

Not really, I noticed you weren't facially comfortable ,Are you okay? He asked , I couldn't help the question, I nooded in affirmation.

I keep wondering why he was busy reading my mood instead of taking the drinks I bought for them, I Hissed and went back to my room .

After he had left ,my husband came to my room to inform me the date of my sex appointment " Baby you're going next week" , I think that's the appropriate time during your ovulation period right ? He said and beemed a smile.

"is it in his house or here am going to stay and have the sex with him" I asked shamelessly ?

" Honey you're going to his house ", he replied with a kiss this time and holds my hands closer to his heart " You know I love you so much, He paused " I'm just sorry things get this bad but believe me it will get better soon.

The Evening breeze was so cool and calm, I had my best bath, sprayed some Perfumes and smell so nice, I am going to get fucked by another man,I couldn't get off my mind, I stopped and looked at myself in the mirror, I look so beautiful and helpless, What if after tonight I couldn't get pregnant, what's going to be my fate ? how do I face him tomorrow or I should keep fucking with him till he gets me pregnant... (Williams Enters the room)

My love, "You're not yet ready " He asked? wearing a disturbing look. Nothing darling I'm just curious if the purpose of what am about doing is going to be fruitful I replied softly, it will my love, have faith, okay He reassured me and left.

I arrived late at Ben's apartment, I was so tensed, I knocked and Ben opened the door smiling at me, we went inside and he served me a chilled drink to cool off, I was deeply sweating profusely.

We Sat in the sitting room staring at each other, we're both shy who would first approach and made advance " You're very pretty ", Everyman should find you worthy of

He said and break the long silence, I chuckled and gave him a fake smile.was still thinking about how the whole thing is going to be when I felt Someone's hand across my shoulder, He kissed me softly then paused, looked into my eyes and this time gripped my tongue again .

We continued kissing and romancing, then he carried me to his bedroom, undress me and himself and grabbed my nipples, sucked it so well whilst fingering me as well, I was yearning for it, I moaned softly and was craving every bit of his touch, I was lost in control, He thrust his Dick into my vagina and began to pound me, the dick winning was so good, I grabbed his ass and supported my hand with it.

He continued fucking me till I noticed some fast moves, he's about to cum, he gripped my thighs tighter, I also squeeze his ass with my two hands, open my legs so well this time, he's shaking, adding more fierce whilst he cum, he kissed me passionately and went to the bathroom.

I woke up the following day feeling so great, last night was so memorable, I wished my husband could at least fuck me so well.

I had to go, so people won't see me coming out from his apartment. " Annabel! , thanks for coming" Ben said as I was about to close his door, I was just surprised by the compliment.

you're welcome I replied bluntly and left.

My husband seeing me as I alight from the Taxi driver jumped up in happiness, he hugged me warmly and kissed me. I already knew the next question he's going to ask me, I nodded "yes all went well " I chipped in , Thank goodness it went as planned, I told you to relax and calm down, I trust him He said jokingly.

Every morning my husband would bring me breakfast, I guess he had loved me more now or he's just waiting for me to get pregnant, I keep wondering anytime he Pampers me and I loved it equally.

My six years of barrness is about to end as I didn't see my monthly flows, I didn't want to raise false alarms , so I got pregnancy test kit , lo and behold I am pregnant , My joy knew no bound at least it's about to become a mother sooner or later .

I shared the good news to my husband , I can see the Joy blossing in his hearts as he keeps showering me with praises , "My love thank you so much " He said , The lots of praises and love he showers at me is making me feel exaggerated ,I can't stop laughing either .

My husband invited Ben and thanked him immensely for Everything, "it's nothing man " , it's for your own good, He commended . The journey of becoming a mother is what I've always dreamed of , I am now confident both my families could now let me be peacefully.

My husband took care of me and my unborn child till the very last day. I delivered a baby boy , My joy is complete and am grateful . "Darling thanks so much for believing in me ,am not worthy " my husband said almost in tears ,I felt his pains and joy altogether.

Few months after I delivered, My husband left for a business trip , leaving me and our son behind , I was at the kitchen when Ben visited.

"Hello Ben " I greeted , My husband is not around . yes he told me already, well (He takes a breath) I came to see you thou not him, He replied with a smile.

I am very happy you visited , Hopefully all is fine ? I asked . um......... he clears his throat ,"yes all is fine , You know the last time you visited me ,have been waiting patiently for you ,I really missed you ,He added Now you've gave birth I also want an appreciation night with you again .

I fumed, Jolting up to my feet and gave him a little distance, Are you okay ! whatever we had was a history and it's not going to happen for the second time nor even to think of ,so wake up from your dream and face the reality,I barked Angrily .

Easy ! Easy ! He waved at me , You don't need to shout at me that way you know? , besides am the one helping you here , I saw how you gripped my ass , how wet and sex starved you where, I knew you wanted me so bad , so stop acting drama , let's get this done and I know you want it as well , and I have changed mind as well you're going to divorce your husband ,tell him you don't love him anymore and it's me ,if you want to save both your child and your infertile husband, (Laughing uncontrollably)

What ! It's time to go Ben , I said pointing towards the door , " please leave my house ,I am sorry to disappoint you coz I can never do it again with you ,Never ! ( He chuckles) Don't say that, I warn you coz you're going to be doing it more often with me, He blinked at me and continue laughing . I became alarmed , he's up to something so I tried pushing him away " I will tell my husband once he's back " . He stopped and siezed my hands " You will do no such thing" He fired back pushed me back to the Cushions and started laughing.....

I have something for you ,a special package to refresh your memories , my love, He brought out his phone and played a video, I saw the romantic moments we had in his house both the time we kissed, fucked, the moans. I break down in tears " what do you want from us " please let us be, I begged him amidst in tears ." You're infatuated with me " He snapped back ,so better give it a deep thought and stop acting like a child .

Huh, I asked with a Stern look, you betrayed us, He's your Best friend for crying out loud, you're Evil, and demons like you are behind bars, not here with us I cried helplessly.

Don't even go there coz I give you my word, you're going to regret it and remember I am still the biological father of our son, so don't think otherwise, you know where am heading to and one more thing I'm going to keep it secret as long as you keep doing what I wanted and all of us will be cool, You got it? He pushed me and left .

The ground seems like opening up and swallowing me, I cried for so long, I wanted to call my husband but am afraid, Ben might fulfill his threat and could take possession of my child, " No I won't tell my husband now, I have to deal with Ben first and get that video of us making out " ( still thinking). My phone ranged it was Ben " Hello my darling " Hopefully you're giving it a deep thought, remember our son and your unproductive husband He Paused laugh uncontrollably and hangs off.

The emotional torture is already eating me up, My child is still young and tender, I don't want to be either away from my husband and our son, What should I do to stop this game from playing, I have no option than to keep dancing to his terms whilst I found out a way to erase him off, He seems to forgot the strength of weak tigeress lies in her Cubs, I'm going to make him pay for today, I concluded.

My husband came back and noticed the change of moods I've been to, he thinks maybe it's child sitting that made me moody, little did he know, I'm fighting on his behalf, he tried pressuring me to open up but I had to be little harsh on him, so I fight this battle alone.

One faithful Sunday, I and my husband were having a picnic when my phone ranged it was Ben, I had to quickly pick it and excuse myself from the Sitting room " Hello my darling, I can see you're enjoying your Sunday, well I need my enjoyment too, now in my house or should I come over "? Not really please don't , I'm going to do anything you ask for the sake of my child and my husband I fired back!. Alright, then I would be expecting He said, and hangs off.

I had no other option than to see him, told my husband I'm going for a church service, so I would meet up with Ben.the taughts in mind was to kill him and end everything but I was scared if my mission could go wrong ,He's beginning to cause me emotional stress all coz of his selfish reasons and I'm a party to that either .
