Not your typical baby mama

It was a beautiful morning at Zach's mansion. Henry woke up to the beautiful sound of, not the birds singing, but the voice of his wife. He looked around his room, she was nowhere in sight. But he could still hear her singing though it sounded faint. He got out of bed and followed the sound.

Victoria was so caught up she did not hear him until she felt his hands wrap around her waist.

"You know, this is the second time now seeing you here so early in the morning. Just say the word, no, give me the sign, and I'll be back home in a heartbeat", he whispered in her ear.

She huffed out a breath and growled, "Let go."

He tightened his hold and rested his chin on her shoulder. "Don't you miss me darling?"

"Let go while I'm being nice", she said through gritted teeth.

"I don't wanna", he rubbed his chest against her back.

"Henry", she warned in a tone that usually sent a cold shiver down everyone's spines.

But he was unfazed by this. He kissed the soft spot between her neck and shoulder before resuming his resting position. "I'm sorry I left you. I have no excuse."

Victoria fell quiet. She knew when he was being sincere and playful. This was definitely the former. She felt her heart away but she had been hurt by him. She didn't care if he was doing the right thing but at the expense of her heart-

She elbowed him in the chest and heard a gasp from behind her as soon as he loosened his hold on her. They both turned around to find Edmund staring in horror. He rushed over to Henry's side.

"Are you alright, sir?" He scanned him from head to toe.

"I'm fi-"

"I think I heard the sound of bones breaking."

"Y-Yeah. I think a few of them", Henry groaned as his face contorted in pain as he held his side.

Edmund was sent into a panic having experienced Victoria's hits as he turned to look at her. "Madam, we need to take him to the hospital."

Victoria looked bored out of her mind. She switched off the cooker and took off her apron. Edmund swung one of Henry's arms over his shoulder and followed Victoria out. Henry was now limping as Edmund helped him out. As they exited the kitchen, Edmund and Henry took the direction for the house entrance while Victoria took the stairs.

"Madam....", Edmund's jaw dropped. He knew she was angry but not to the extend of ignoring her husband's injuries. "Sir....."

He turned to Henry who released himself from him. He was back to his normal self except he had a serious expression on his face.

"Sir? You're alright?"

Henry stuffed his hands into his pajama trouser pockets as he watched the sway of his wife's hips and her round ass as she walked up the stairs. He had a dreamy expression as he kept his gaze peeled on that one spot.

"She looks great even from behind", he sighed. "I miss that ass."

Edmund: "..."

"Don't you dare turn around", he warned.

Edmund remained frozen even when he the sound of Victoria's footsteps fade away. Barely a minute later, Victoria reappeared at the top of the stairs.

"Edmund!"

"Madam?"

She frowned when he responded with his back to her. Seeing her husband standing next to the butler, she sighed.

"Stop bullying the man", she frowned at Henry's jealousy.

"I didn't do anything, right Edmund?" He said the last words through gritted teeth.

But it was gaze silently daring to turn around and look at her. He was working for Zach but why was the older couple troubling him. One used violence while one used verbal threats. He felt his life was too hard.

"Was there something you needed, Madam?" He changed the subject.

"Get the kitchen to set the table, I'm going to wake Amy up", she said.

"Right away", he retreated in reverse and disappeared from their sight.

She glared at Henry who gave her an innocent look with a shrug. Not wasting a second, she took her excited self to Zach's room door and knocked.

"Mom?"

She turned to find Zach approaching her from behind her. He was in his all black workout gear and perspiration carpeted his forehead and left a wet patch on his broad chest. Her eyes lit up as he approached.

"I came to have breakfast with you two. Will you join us downstairs?" She asked excitedly.

"Of course."

She patted his arm before rushing down while humming to a tune. She could not wait for Amy to try her meal. She had woken up especially early in the morning to come and personally prepare breakfast. She hardly slept after finding out she had a daughter-in-law.

She wanted to call friends especially Kris and rub it in but she thought what better way to slap her face than surprise them with not just a daughter-in-law but also a grandchild. She giggled to herself imagining the look Kris would have by then.

"Aunt Victoria?" George called out from behind her in his business suit.

"Good morning dear. Off to work?"

"Yes. Seeing your excited face, I can guess you're here for sis", he chuckled.

"Of course! That's why I personally came to make breakfast for her. You should stay have some, I made enough for everyone."

George had a troubled face as he looked at his rolex. "I would love to, but I have a meeting to run in a few minutes."

"Really? It will only take a few minutes."

"What will take a few minutes?" Xavier's voice resounded in the room as the man himself joined them.

George picked up his phone and pressed it to his ear as he excused himself. Xavier kissed his mother on the cheek in greeting.

"I came to have breakfast with Amy", she barely suppressed her excited squeal.

"Look at you, Mrs. Victoria Frost, a mother-in-law and soon-to-be Grandma", he teased her with a smile.

Victoria had a bashful smile as she smacked his arm. Happiness was evident on her features. But a thought occured to her and her smile died down. She held his arm as she looked at him with a serious face.

"I'm not trying to be like other mothers but when will you settle down? I want you to find your happiness too."

Xavier's cheeks and the tip of his ears colored red a thought of a certain someone came to mind. "Actually, I do have someone."
