Betrayal

Chapter 37

It was a peaceful Saturday morning and Valerie felt the need to treat her usual breakfast partners by inviting the lovebirds to Zain's house. She decided to make grilled cheese sandwiches and chocolate muffins. She was finally moving past Antonio and it felt good. Zain was adapting, the effort alone made her happy. He was not waking up in the middle of the night anymore. They were talking more, even going on dates. They were based on his terms, meaning they went to fancy restaurants and she had to play dress up for him but they were better than nothing. They even had a gala to attend, Valerie being his plus one. He seemed excited that she did not want to burst his bubble so she agreed. All she had to do was find a dress and enjoy the night.

"That smells amazing Val", he said walking into the kitchen. He only had shorts on, it was his usual attire when they were having a day in. She was still working on getting him to wear smart casual. "Thank you. Can you ask the lovebirds if they're close?", "Lovebirds in the building!", Yolanda shouted from the door making Valerie roll her eyes. "You look cute when you do that", Zain said while pulling her in for a kiss, it was quick, obviously Zain was still not comfortable showing affection when other people were around. She gave him a last peck before he pulled away. "Good morning guys! Welcome", she greeted Yolanda and then Rayan as they entered the kitchen. "Where are we sitting?", Valerie asked. "By the pool", Yolanda replied quickly removing her wrap dress to showcase the one-piece swimsuit she had underneath. "You're crazy", Valerie said with a smile. "Yes I am, this pool has my name written all over it", she said right before she dived into the water. 

Zain helped her set the table since Rayan was busy taking pictures of his girlfriend, and breakfast was no longer important. She sat on Zain's leg and started making his plate. "Can I have more muffins?", he asked shamelessly. Yap a sweet tooth. Valerie put three muffins on his plate with three sandwiches and a cup of coffee. When the lovebirds were done, they joined them at the table attacking the food like they hadn't eaten in days. "Does this mean you guys haven't bothered to get a maid?", Valerie asked Rayan who was busy swallowing a piece of muffin that was bigger than him. "Well, we don't need one actually because we kinda sold the apartment and moved in together", Yolanda said while avoiding Valerie's eyes. "What? Am hurt... congratulations but am hurt, did you know?", he turned to Zain who nodded his head. She felt left out. "We were going to tell you it's just that, a lot was happening and we forgot", Rayan tried to defend himself unsuccessfully. "What do you mean a lot going on?", Valerie pressed and watched the two look at each other. "We're pregnant", they said at the same time making Zain choke on his coffee. "I give up!", Valerie said standing up with her coffee just when the doorbell rang. She decided to go answer it. "Oh my god! You guys are living together!", Zoya said excitedly as she hugged Valerie. She was not alone. She had a group of people behind her. They walked in as if they had been there before. They were all young and had beach wear, which only gave Valerie one answer, they were there for the pool. "Hi Zoya", she said when Zoya pulled away. "Hello sister-in-law, am sorry for hacking your Saturday, I hope you don't mind. Honestly, I didn't know you were living here too. Wait, if you're here then that means... fuck!", she took off running in the direction of the pool. Valerie followed behind to find an angry-looking Zain trying his best not to lose his cool as his breakfast was being taken by a group of college students. It was funny to watch. Zoya turned to Valerie for help. "Please help me, if you don't talk to him, he will kick us out and we really need this", she begged. Valerie looked at her with a smile but her serious face meant that Zain would literally do it. "Do you guys mind if we play ball with you?", Rayan said removing his shirt. The group screamed with excitement as they picked teams. Valerie shook her head the moment Yolanda joined them. She walked towards Zain, standing in front of him making sure to block the view. "Come with me. Let's get rid of those furrowed brows", she said pulling him away from the crowd that had a fair share of girls who were ogling at his shirtless body. He grabbed the last muffin before following her making Valerie chuckle. 

"Do you know that when you do that you kind of turn me on?", she said seductively making him swallow a piece of a muffin without chewing. He placed the remaining piece on the coffee table, turning to face her. She was sitting in the middle of the bed with a bra hanging on her index finger. She watched Zain lick his lips. He was turned on. "Now, we are going to make a deal Papa bear", the name made him groan. Valerie smiled seductively. "Am going to give you what you want and in return, you will help me do a barbecue for Zoya and her friends... do we have a deal?", she asked with her hands in front of her chest pushing her breast in display, her back arching with her ass in the air. She watched Zain swallow hard. "This is not a fair trade Val, it's my house and I have the final say on who is allowed to come here...", he said intending to sound intimidating but got distracted when Valerie pulled a chair sitting right in front of him then removed her t-shirt allowing her breasts to bounce free. "You mean our house... right Zain?", she asked seductively with her hands pulling the waistband of his shorts down slowly. "Yes... yes our house", he answered in a rush. She placed his member between her breasts massaging him slowly. She waited until he started moaning then stopped. "Fuck Val don't stop", he whined like a teenage boy making her smile. "Will you help me host our guests?", she asked then licked the pre cum from his member. "FUCK YES!", "You promise Zain?", she teased once more. "Yes I fucking promise!", he said making her resume her massage.
