The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov
It wasn’t good to eavesdrop and I felt awful for it. But the way Aiden’s voiced boomed through the walls startled and
terrified me enough to make me push all my morals to the side and eavesdrop on his conversation.
It was obvious he was talking to Sergio, he had that special angry tone he held only for that weasel man.
Sergio had done or said something to upset Aiden, his voice had more fury than I’ve ever heard it swirled with before.
Ash makes a little noise and I quickly put my finger on his mouth and told him to shush in a soft tone. Of course we were not directly by the door, I would not be so foolish to stay so close and get caught.
Aiden’s voice was loud enough to travel a few feet away. So there I stood with our naughty boy in my arms.
I called him naughty because apparently little Ash was trying his best to make his father know we were eavesdropping on
his conversation.
I pouted, cooing at him to behave and keep quiet as he made a fuss to move my finger off his lips.
Ash finally stopped making a fuss and only looked at me like I was a confusing alien. If I was in his position, I would think that too.
It’s not every day you see someone playing the part of a spy.
Though I will admit, being a ‘spy’ wasn’t for me. Especially when I had this little boy in my arms.
My ears tried to pick up on his words but after a few minutes Aiden’s voice calmed down to the point I can only hear
murmurs.
I made a move to go closer to the door but then the naughty boy in my arms made a little loud sound that I m*ffled
quickly.
“You naughty boy,” My eyes narrowed on a little Aiden whose eyes light with mirth.

Ashton definitely knew what he was doing.
I huffed and called it quits. It was better to end this before Ashton get us both caught.
I walked away from the door reluctantly, my shoulders slumped.
“I swear you’re just like your dad.” I huffed, pouting as I stomped my way back to the kitchen.
I didn’t have time to pick up on anything good. Ashton made sure to have prevented me from doing so.
I picked up the fork and stabbed the waffles and lifted my eyes to the ceiling.
“Thank you a lot G*d for giving me two Aiden’s as if one wasn’t enough.” I sighed and then looked down at the little boy who giggled.
My heart squeezed.
“Nevermind, I wouldn’t want it any other way. I can have even more Aiden’s, either way I’m blessed.” I whispered and lifted my finger to brush along Ashton’s cheek.
He smiles and I smile.
“You’ve been a naughty little boy Ash. Preventing mama from eavesdropping.” I pouted and he giggled as if knowing exactly what I meant.
“Mama naughty,” Ashton giggles.
My mouth part and then my eyes narrowed on his cute face. “No. You’re the only naughty one here mister.”
Ashton squealed a little, and giggled.
When I heard the door of the room open, my eyes widen and I whispered. “Act cool Ash.”
Ashton, as if understanding me completely starts playing with my hair and ceases his giggles.
I on the other hand picked up the fork and stabbed it through the waffles. I ate it and waited for Aiden to approach.
I stiffened when I suddenly felt his arms around me but melted in his hold seconds later. I hadn’t heard when he came behind me.
“I hope breakfast tasted better than the cupcake,” He murmured and kissed my cheek.
I close my eyes to savor the feeling then peeled my eyes open and opened my mouth to respond. “Yes. It does.”
“Mama naughty.” Ashton suddenly giggled and I freeze.
This kid was definitely plotting to sell me out.
I laughed it off, tickling him and earning a sweet laugh from his throat.
Aiden who thankfully hadn’t really pried deep into his son’s words, lifted his lips to my ear.
His hot breath tickles the lobe, his lips just brushing against it. I freeze, my heart leaping.
“Naughty huh?” Aiden breathed beside my ear, making my inside tickle with tingles. “I think I like when you’re naughty.” His teeth trap my earlobe and bit down on it gently.
I force my throat to hold in the moan, not wanting to let out such a sound in front of Ashton.
“Aiden,” I breathed out, my core tightening, despite my will to try to stop my blatant need for him.
“Ashton,” I murmured and willed my body to step out of his hold.
Aiden was definitely trying to distract me from asking him about what had upset him.
I should not make him distract me so easily.
Turning to face him, I’m surprised he wasn’t avoiding my gaze but kept his eyes directly on me.
