The Husband I Never Knew (Part 2)-2
“You’re done eating?” he asked, sitting down.
“Yeah… I’m going to check on Phoenix first, then go to bed.”
I’ll be up shortly.”
I nodded and walked toward the master bedroom. It was right next to Phoenix’s room. After making sure she was asleep, I went to the bedroom.
Deciding to soak my tired body in a bath first, I drew myself a tub. Once in, I let my mind wander. Everything had been so confusing since I woke up. I wanted to believe things had changed, but I couldn’t help feeling something was off.
Sebastian’s behavior topped the list of things that felt wrong. Like, when had he changed? Could I trust this new version of him, or was I destined for more heartbreak than I was currently experiencing?
His behavior now was exactly what I’d always wished for from him, so why couldn’t I trust
it?
When the water turned cold, I got out of the tub. Wrapping a towel around my body, I went to find something to wear. The closet and drawers were filled with clothes. The only problem was that they were all new. I didn’t recognize a single piece.
I pulled out a red nightgown and put it on. Afterward, I went to check on Phoenix and Leo. They were both asleep. I saw a clock in the hallway and realized it was already nine. Honestly, I had no idea I’d been in the tub that long.
I froze when I returned to the room and found Sebastian there. Forcing myself to relax, I walked steadily to the side of the bed, pulled back the covers, and got in. His eyes were on
me the entire time.
“Why are all my clothes new?” I asked him.
“When you were pregnant, your old clothes obviously didn’t fit, so I threw them all out and bought you new ones,” he said. “I only got some temporary ones. You can buy more later.

I nodded. That made sense.
“About my pregnancy, you said you’d explain why I had a child with another man.”
Something flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared so quickly I couldn’t read it.
“Can we talk about it another day? I’m tired and just want to sleep.”
I wanted to argue, but something about his appearance caught my attention. He did look exhausted, like he hadn’t slept in days or weeks.
I nodded in acceptance, waiting for him to leave. But he didn’t. Instead, he started undressing. I watched him remove everything until he was down to just his underwear, unable to form words.
He began walking toward the bed, and that’s when my thoughts snapped back.
“Uh, what are you doing?” I asked nervously.
He got into bed. “Sleeping.”
“What? Here? In this bed?” I stammered.
“Yes, is there a problem?”
I swallowed hard. “We’ve never slept in the same bed before.”
It was true, like I said, we would have sex, and then he would leave. We had separate bedrooms. So this was a first.
Using the remote, he turned off the lights.
“Well, that’s going to change. You’re my wife and Luna. We should share a bed.”
“But-”
words. He turned my body and wrapped his arms around me from behind, cutting off my My ass was perfectly aligned with his crotch, and his arms were tightly wrapped around my waist. It wasn’t uncomfortable, but it was a new experience, so I was nervous.
“Can you relax and sleep?” he whispered at the nape of my neck, making me shiver

involuntarily.
I forced myself to relax. Within minutes, I felt him fall asleep. I remained awake for hours, my thoughts constantly spinning.
S
Something was definitely wrong, because the Sebastian I knew would never sleep in the same bed with me, let alone hold me like this.
I just needed to figure out what I was missing and what had changed. The key to finding the answers lay in my jumbled memories. I had to get them back.
