My Water Broke, But He Chose Her First

Summary

My water broke, and pain seized my entire body. Gasping, I dialed my husband, Rhys Abbott. He answered, but his voice lacked any urgency.

He was too busy helping our beautiful neighbor, Emily Fox, move her car.

"Babe, it's snowing heavily out here," Rhys said, his tone casual. "Parking is a nightmare. Just hang tight a little longer. As soon as I get this parked, I'll race back to you. I promise."

I froze, clutching my stomach. Wait? I didn't expect his first reaction to be a command to hold on.

A wave of fury momentarily eclipsed the pain.
