The obstetrician called him already but why is he acting like he doesn’t know? She wouldn't be surprised by the prospect. “A case of morning sickness struck me.” After a brief gap, she tried to be humorous. “At about three o'clock in the afternoon.” David would not be fooled for long by her acting skills. “Another flash of memory came to me.” It was a continuation of the truth, and it gave her a little chill. David reassured her as he caressed her temple with his kisses. "I will call Rick and arrange for him to meet me at a restaurant if you are not in the mood for dinner this evening." "Amy has gone to a lot of trouble," Anna said hastily, before saying, "No." Even though she was fast asleep, she was startled when he climbed into bed and stretched out to her. A showdown was what she desired. She wanted to go to battle with him, dammit. That was not the case, though, when a dinner guest was expected to show up in—how much time? In under thirty minutes? “Shouldn’t we prepare o

Jacob was left with the Pajero wagon while David was driving the Porsche into the city. She should talk to David about it tonight. After lunch, she rummaged through her closet in search of an appropriate dinner gown. After much consideration, she settled on a deep yellow-fitting gown after narrowing her options down to two. The hue was a striking contrast to her black hair, complemented her dark eyes, and brought out her light honey skin's creamy smoothness. Around four o'clock, Jacob brought her home from physical therapy. At five o'clock, she showered, cleaned her hair, and had Amy style her long hair with fat rollers. After that, she took care of her nails. As she was putting on her makeup, David walked into the bedroom, and she calmly accepted his analytical assessment. "How is your hand doing?" Anna was acutely aware of his nearness the moment he stepped towards her. Showing off the pink scar, she remained silent. "I assume the report from the expert has already been sent to

As her eyes welled up and tears started to fall down her cheeks, she swore. Tears were rare for her. Aside from that time, my mother, Allen, and Aunt Martha passed away. Her hormones and her emotional heart must be at odds with each other, dammit. I was devastated. ‘I couldn't believe it.’ It seems like her pregnancy worsened her temperament. Unending torment, she corrected. Her mind is full of pointless banter. A few minutes later, everyone was yelling in her head. She leaned back in her chair and nestled her head in the crook of her arm because she was exhausted from feeling so many emotions at once. At that spot, David discovered her. He remained there for quite a while, staring at her delicate features—the way her hair clung to her neck, the beautiful arch of her slim neck highlighted by the bedside lamp, the slim curves beneath her plain white cotton nightgown. And the subtle sign of crying. He undressed slowly, walked over to the chair, and gently took her into his arms. Som

She surrendered fully to the pleasures of unrestrained passion as, beneath his sensual dominion, a dormant fire burst into flaming life. Anna did not object as he undressed her and himself; she voluntarily arched her back as his lips traced a path over her entire body. Her hands clasped his hair as he lingered in between her legs. A surge of pleasure rushed through her as he licked her sensitive clitoral area over and over until she trembled in ecstasy. A series of hushed cries came from her lips as she pleaded with him, expressing her deep desire for his undivided attention. He slid on top of her and plunged deep into her. Anna savored his every thrust as her hands caressed his buttocks. She let out a scream as she eagerly welcomed his mouth to hers, her intense sensations building to a joint climax that probed the depths of primal gratification. She unwillingly embraced the pinnacle of sexual bliss. Anna took pride in her independence and decided to drive the Mercedes out every d

When another couple joined them, Anna let out a breath of relief because most of the people were aimlessly wandering from table to table. While the woman had a light talk with Anna, the man—a business associate of David's—began an intense debate with him.Anna glanced at David with a look of surprise as he rested his arm across the back of her chair twenty minutes before they departed.“It is getting close to eleven o'clock.”“Our mission has been accomplished.”“Are you ready to go?” Anna nodded in agreement.Without saying a word more, he had them leave the ballroom and start to lead the way. A number of his friends wanted to talk to him, and while he waited a second to say a few expressions of courteous reply, he did not remain.Anna sank into the leather-cushioned seat and relaxed as David lowered the Bentley to street level, joining the steady flow of traffic leaving the city.It was pleasurable just to relax in the car. The pulsing in her hand had diminished in intensity, and th
