Billionaire Baby Daddy

Forty Two

ISABELLA'S POV

I'm woken up by a cry. I want to ignore it but my conscience reminds me its my baby's. I get up so fast and see someone taking the baby from the bed. "Don't touch him!” I snap. The hands release my son immediately.

"He was crying. Sorry." The voice makes my eyes widen and I look up. "Mum? Gosh I'm so sorry. I never checked and since I woke up the last time and thought he’s gone I've just been paranoid." I try to explain. I feel so guilty. Gosh! The baby doesn't stop crying and I take breast out for him to suckle.

My mum comes next te me and smiles then hugs me. "I'm just so happy you're okay. I thought I lost you at the shooting." I hug her back but she flinches when I squeeze her but doesn't move away.

"You were shot." I state.

"It was just a scrape. I'll live. I heard my grandson was born and I had to come and see you.” I smile at that. "He's got your eyes. Or mine. Both ours. He's so lovely. Can I hold him?" I laugh at my mum's enthusiasm as I nod. She takes the baby and places him on her chest and she smiles.

"What's his name?"

"I'm waiting for Sydney so that we can both name him. Do you have any reports from Sydney?" I ask but I hear someone knocking. We both tell the person to come in.

"It's good to see both of you up Mrs Kings." Doctor Clara says as she comes to my side. "Do you feel any pain?” She asks as she checks something on the file.

"No. I just feel sore and tired." She nods at this and writes down again. "How's my husband?" I ask.

"We expect Mr Kings to get up in about fifteen hours from now. For now he’s still the same but his wounds are healing.” I nod at her. "I want him here. I want us to share a room. Can you organize that?" The doctor suddenly looks undecided.

"I don’t think..."

"Please. I'll only feel at peace when he’s here. It kills me not knowing how he is. Him being close to us will make him fight for us. Our baby needs his daddy close to us.”

I want to be there when he wakes up.

"I'll arrange for that. But if you there's need for transfer to another room, I think it's best if you go to his room because him moving might disrupt the machines and everything." I nod and the doctor gets out after saying, "I'll see what I can do."

My mum comes next to me and places the baby next to my side. "I've changed his diapers and now he's asleep." I thank her as she sits next to me and tells me about her fiance, Max.

I look at Sydney's face. The urge to touch him overwhelms me and I get up with struggle then move next to his bed which is only a metre away from mine. My hand moves to his hair and move it away from his face. I trace his eyebrows then to the gash on his cheek. It's so pale you can't notice it if you don't look close enough.

"I miss you so much honey. You have to get up and see our beautiful baby. He looks like you. Got your hair and all apart from the eyes." I smile as a tear falls on the bed next to him. "You need to wake up and see him. And be with us. I didn't get to tell you how much I love you. I love you so much." I kiss his forehead and look at his face again. Damn. I got a handsome husband and a handsome son.

Sydney should hopefully wake up in five hours. I look at my bed and see our son sleeping and I smile "Oh Sydney. You should see our angel." I kiss his cheeks and decide to go back to bed. Maybe I should get some rest. I try to sleep but I can't. My mind roams to everything that has happened in the past nine months

Going home to find my boyfriend cheating on me. Going to the club to forget about him. Meeting Sydney and having mind blowing sex minutes later. Maybe I should thank lan for cheating on me. I should thank Sydney for his not so foolish plan to get me pregnant. I laugh at that. Then I remember how heartbroken I was when I found out he was engaged to Bianca. And speaking of Bianca, where did she go to after almost killing Sydney and I? I'll figure that out later.

I think about Harry and Amelia. I don't know anything about them. I'll just ask Joey when he comes lat... My thoughts are stopped by a groan. I look to my side and see Sydney moving. I press a red button calling for help and I move carefully to his side.

"Sydney. Honey. I'm here.” I whisper. He tries opening his eyes but shuts them close before trying again. This time he keeps his eyes open and they look into mine.

"Izzy." His husky voice croaks and if we were anywhere else I'd have swooned. I go to the bedside table and take some water and straw and place it in his mouth and he sucks like his life depended on it.

Two doctors and a nurse barge into the room looking serious until their eyes land on us. "We heard the buzzer." One of them says and I nod.

"I pressed it when I heard groans coming from him. He was waking up." I feel a hand touch mine and I look down to find Sydney's.

"We'll have to check on him and see if everything isNine." He says and I nod as the gsom is filled with m baby's cries: I kiss Sydney's cheek-~ as his eyes widen and look to thes baby’ sside. I smile and move. © towards the baby and pick him up then cradle him until he stops crying. I sit on the bed looking away from the doctors and start breastfeeding him for about seven minutes.

The doctors leave when I'm done and I take the baby to Sydney. "Go to daddy." I coo and notice Sydney hasn't moved an inch. I look up and see tears in his eyes. "I wanted to be there for you when you woke up." Sydney says and I move closer to him and kiss his forehead.

"It's okay. Doctor Clara told me everything. And I love you more because of that." Sydney looks up so fast in shock before the sexiest grin appears. “Gosh! Your so handsome.” I blurt out and a full blown laugh emerges from him.

"I love you too baby.” He says after a while and I smile sheepishly. "Wanna hold our son?” I ask and suddenly he looks nervous.

"You're going to be the world’s greatest dad. Our son already loves you." I say and Sydney exhales before reaching out for the baby.

"He's so tiny.” Sydney breaths out and a tear falls on the baby. I lift my hand to his face and wipe them. "Oh! My God!He's got your eyes Izzy." Sydnexis so excited that I smilevand can ‘tStop. You know that fu [Kblown sme that can't go away until you f8@l your cheeks hurt? Yeah, that one.

"So what's his name?" I ask and he looks at me dumbly.

"You waited for me to give you a name?” I nod and smile. That makes him smile too. I noticed he once searched for boy names when we were at the cottage.

“Aiden Matthew Kings." Sydney says and I look at him in shock. "M... Matthew?" I ask.

"Yeah." He kisses the baby and calls him the same name. I hear a cry from the door and look up to see my mother. I go to her and hug her then move her close to my family.

“You don't have to call him that.” I say and Sydney frowns. "You don't like it?" He seems heartbroken and I move next to him.

"I love it. 1... I just don't know what to say." I try to explain.

"Come here." Sydney says and my mother takes-the baby from him as I sit in front afhim. "I love you so much. My family took your dad away and what better way to remember him by? I don't want to see yautin painzzy." Sydney says as he’ kisses ne and I smile and kiss hist back. We look at my mum singfhg to Aiden as she smiles and Sydney hugs me.

"I love you.” I tell him.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"I love you.” Sydney replies and kisses the side of my head.
