Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 1439

Wyatt turned to head out the door as the thought crossed his mind, but Waverly grabbed him by the wrist.

"I, um, my case is a little troublesome! I can only use a specific brand of sanitary napkin. Other brands will cause irritation to my skin. And... and if I'm unlucky, my cramps will get severe in the first two days. Why don't you just take me home?" she explained as she held her stomach.

Waverly's bashfulness was indisputable, and seeing Wyatt stumped, she raised her hand and swore, "I'm not lying this time, I swear!"

Sure enough, karma is a b*tch!

"I don't want to trouble you! It's an overseas brand. You can only find it in cosmopolitan malls... I have them on standby at home!"

Waverly wasn't lying about that!

Her first period came a little later than most girls. She wasn't sure if it was because she didn't take proper care and doused herself in freezing water, leaving such a chronic problem, or another reason, but in short, all she remembered was that she would constantly be in dire pain. Her family had sought many doctors, nutritionists, and even holistic doctors to cure her problem. As she grew older and her immune system improved, coupled with consuming holistic medicine and taking extra care of herself, this problem alleviated a lot. Her period would come relatively on time now as well. However, her on-and-off cramps would still torture her. The sanitary napkins as well, she switched to a lot of brands before discovering that her skin wouldn't irritate after using that specific brand.

Otherwise, it would be like traversing through hell for her every period.

Her father and brother were men, and though her stepmother was nice to her and she got along with Cecelia, they weren't exactly related by blood, after all, constantly feeling like there was something between them. So, she'd had to bear or solve the problem herself at the end of the day. Besides, she didn't like troubling her stepmother and half-sister. Her father stumbled upon her issue one day and checked with her. After that, he sought professional help, and finally, her condition turned for the better over the years.

As soon as she finished her words, Wyatt put on his suit jacket and grabbed her coat. "O'mon!"

It was already very late, and Waverly honestly didn't want to bother him like this. But this time, it wasn't her call!

So she said nothing in the end after taking a couple of glances at him.

It was already around midnight, but Wyatt still drove her to the nearest hypermarket. After leading her inside, they actually found the brand she was talking about. He checked the words, it was in Jopenzo, and just like that, it stuck in his mind.

While they were at it, he got her some daily necessities and two pajamas before heading back to his pace. The entire time, it never occurred to Wyatt that he still had a few unread messages.

On the other side of the world, Raynee deliberately wished Wyatt 'Merry Christmas' as soon as she could and even sent him a picture of her carrying the bag. She kept waiting for his reply, but to her dismay, he never did.

Then, she sent another message when she was free again, but still, nothing...

However, she merely thought he was swamped with work, so she didn't dare bother him further. She got his Christmas present this year, but she spent almost the entire holiday waiting. For what exactly, she wasn't sure!

The period had reassured Waverly. So even if they returned to Wyatt's home, into his bedroom, she wasn't as fearful as when she first came.

Furthermore, it was already close to one right then. So after coming back, Waverly took a shower, changed into the set of pajamas Wyatt got for her, then nestled into bed after wrapping herself like a burrito. Similarly exhausted, Wyatt also went to bed in two shakes.

After switching off the last bit of light, he pulled the 'burrito' into his arms, teasing her with closed eyes.

"I'm not as monstrous as you think. I won't eat you up!"

Why did she wrap herself up so securely? He couldn't even cuddle her properly! Would she not feel uncomfortable wrapping herself up like this?!

Waverly's eyes were closed as well. Drowsiness began hitting her as being bundled up warmly made her feel exceptionally comfortable. Her subconscious had taken over at this point. "Hmm, no, comfy..."

She had lost her mother when she was a child, and as close as she was with her father and brother, there was still a degree of how intimate they could be. So deep down, especially when it was time to sleep, she would feel super insecure!

Wyatt grew exceptionally sleepy as well, affected by her drowsiness. "Sleep then... Good night."

"Good night..."

The gentle voice faded away in the wind, replaced by inconsistent steady breathing...

Surprisingly, the two had a good night's sleep that night.

However, as dawn came, so did tragedy. Waverly was awoken by pain. She was already moaning before she had a chance to open her eyes, still groggy.

"Ow..."

The cramps have begun again!

She didn't take the throbbing pain seriously as it was the familiar sensation from her memory. She had already instinctively curled her body up, wriggling in bed, adjusting her posture to alleviate the pain before opening her eyes.

After a while, the pain eased, and she went back to sleep. When the cramps returned, she'd wriggle again, moaning unconsciously as well.

Very quickly, she woke Wyatt up. He was just as groggy. However, he had already instinctively reached his big warm palm toward her. "What's wrong?"

"My stomach hurts..."

"Pain... Uncomfortable! Ow..."

Neither was fully awake, one asking subconsciously and the other answering reflexively. Waverly kept her eyes closed, clearly still wanting to sleep. But Wyatt's brain had jolted awake at this point. At that, he pulled her into his arms, letting her snuggle up to him while he reached one arm down to her belly, rubbing it lightly.
