Brenda continues for several more minutes, asking me questions and I try to answer the best I can. However, there were some I couldn’t give her an answer to. Mentally, I take a note to myself to ask Mark later.Once she has gone through her entire list and I have answered the best I could, she gets up and leaves my office.My head swirls from her rapid-fire interrogation. I’m amazed at everything she has completed already, with the help of Mark’s mother and our friends. I will never tell her she can’t do something on short notice again. My mind drifts back to one particular item from her list. What am I going to do for a wedding gift? What can I give Mark that will show him how much I love him? Ugh, I’m going to be thinking about this all the time now. As I debate my options for his gift, Casper runs full speed into my office. His eyes glisten and fill with tears as he looks up at me with his big eyes as charges towards me. Fear flashes across his face. “MOMMY!!! SAVE ME!

I’m lying in bed with my eyes closed. The alarm is about to go off any minute now. Ugh.. Why so soon?I want to continue to keep my eyes closed and enjoy the warmth of Katie’s naked body pressed up against me. Her slow rhythmic breathing is like music to my ears. After being away from her for so many years, I just can’t get enough of her. Reluctantly, I reach over to her phone and check the time. I’m right. We have five minutes before her alarm goes off.Time goes just too fast.I turn off her alarm and gently nudge her. “Katie. Sweetheart. It is time to get up. Come on. Let’s take a bath.”She groans in her sleep and wiggles against me. Her movements instantly have my body igniting into fire. I kiss the top of her head and rub her back. “Baby, if you continue to move around like that, I can guarantee you won’t be able to walk very well today and you will definitely be late for work. So, let’s get up and get a bath.” My voice drops with each word as her alluring body

KatieMy eyes dart between the five annoying guys, trying to find a way for me to get out of the situation without something happening. Unfortunately, there isn’t any. They have me backed into a corner in the lobby, and they are surrounding me. I quickly glance around the area, hoping Mark will come back soon. People pass by oblivious to my turmoil and what is going on. They don’t notice the growing tensions in the air. Fear rocks through me, and my heart hammers against my chest. One of my first dates in years and something like this has to happen. Why can’t these idiots walk by and leave me alone? There are so many women here. They don’t need to go all macho and approach me. The leader smiles at me, but it is far from a genuine smile. His arrogance won’t let me get by with my previous action of slapping his hand away. The fire in his eyes tells me he usually doesn’t come across a woman who openly rejects him, but he has now. No one can compare to my fiancé. Mark has

With my eyes still closed, I move and pain shoots through my entire body. Why did I give into Mark and let him ravage me that much? I think every muscle in my body hurts. I can’t go back to the house looking like this. Evan and Izzy will tease me relentlessly. Hopefully, the painkillers work soon. This is unbearable.Mark leans over and kisses my cheek and softly whispers, “Let’s go home, baby.”That is easy for him to say because he doesn’t have every muscle in his body hurting right now. Luckily, Casper is young enough that he doesn’t have any idea about this sort of thing. That is until Izzy gave him a quick once over with the whole daddy eating mommy thing. Shit!! Casper already knows something because at the hospital, he wouldn’t let those women touch anyone and he sat right there on the middle of the table and announced to everyone that Frank eats Izzy just like daddy eats mommy. My stomach twists. I shake my head and silently hope things won’t be that bad.As soon

Well, it is mean to do what we did to Katie, but I want to know. After she fell asleep on the couch earlier, Shane came home, and I asked about her symptoms when she was pregnant with Casper. Shane chuckled and initially asked if I had already gotten Katie pregnant, and I was honest. I told him I didn’t know, and I wanted to find out subtly.He immediately gave me a smile and told me to fix seafood dishes. He said Katie almost immediately hated the smell of seafood, even though it was her favorite food. Of course, I asked mom to help along with Wanda and Izzy when they arrived at the house. Wanda was so excited that Katie might be pregnant again she couldn’t hardly contain her excitement. Luckily, she managed to hide it as soon as Katie walked into the kitchen. Katie still doesn’t know we all did it for an experiment. I’ve also talked to Brenda, and she is going to help us get Katie talked into taking an actual pregnancy test. I have tried talking to her about the possibilit
