Just the Epilogue to go now. Thank you so much for sticking with me. Love Billie
Cat let out a soft giggle as Eric playfully pushed her down onto the bed, gently pulling off her camisole as he hovered over her. “You are so sexy. I love you more every day,” he whispered, his love for her evident in his voice.Cat groaned with desire as he slid her underwear down her legs, leaving her completely naked. They knew they only had an hour at most.With the assistance of their live-in nanny, Katie. Allison had taken their four-year-old twin boys, Jack and Michael, to the beach. Eric had insisted that Cat have a nanny to help with the boys, but only when she needed it. Katie’s room was conveniently located right next to the boys’ room. Cat adored being a mother, but twin boys could definitely be a handful.As Eric moved away from the bed to remove his shirt and pants, Cat stretched out on the bed, eagerly watching her stunning husband undress. A delicious warmth spread through her body, causing her skin to tingle with anticipation. He made it a point to tell her he loved he
“Cat, while I’m away, if you need anything, just call my secretary Joanna.” Katherine rolled her eyes as she watched Eric from her position in her bed, the same bed they had just shared and not for sleeping. Eric was getting dressed to embark on another business trip. With less than an hour before his flight to London was due to depart from Sydney Airport, one might expect Eric to appear hurried. Yet, he was the epitome of calm. Even if he arrived a mere 15 minutes before takeoff, there would be no issue. After all, the jet was his, and he was its sole passenger. Unless Claudia was travelling with him, Cat refrained from asking. It was a topic she evaded entirely with Eric.Whenever she mentioned Claudia, he would adopt a stony expression. She couldn’t help but feel wary about the other woman. Eric’s PA, Claudia, saw him more often than Cat did, and so did Jo. However, Cat’s feelings towards Jo were not the same as those she harboured for Claudia. She trusted her intuition; it was cl
But before Eric had a chance to say anymore, Cat cut him off. “Don’t Cat me like that Eric, it will not work anymore. I’m not happy with the way things are.... I have tried to verbalise how I feel to you. All you seem to do is override them or use sex to keep me quiet. We don’t love each other.” oh! how that lie hurt, but she will keep her pride if it was the last thing she did... “maybe that’s what I need to look for. I want so much more than we are giving each other. Eric, Sex on the run is just not for me! there is no point continuing this.... this affair” Cat took another deep breath holding back tears she would not cry, she would not cry... she told herself over and over again hoping that, if she told herself this it would somehow keep the tears at bay. She had just told this man so many lies because she knew if this kept going, he would kill her slowly with his indifference. Tears formed around her eyes, even though she tried to hold them back. “Come on baby, don’t be silly eve
“Sorry Jo, my mind was elsewhere. I’ve got a few things going on right now.” Cat folded her letter, putting it into an envelope also found in Eric’s top drawer before sealing it. “So I noticed.” Jo smiled “Jo, can you give this to Eric when he comes back?” Joanne frowned at her request, because Jo would know after an extended time away the first person to see Eric would be Cat. Cat stopped any questions now by saying quickly, “I will explain later, ok.” but that didn’t stop Jo as she hoped. “Cat, what’s going on? Has something happened between Eric and you?” Cat frowned. She had set herself on this path. There was no hiding it and she didn’t want to... it’s just how much was she ready to talk about. “It’s over between us, Jo. He doesn’t love me, he takes our relationship for granted... well, what relationship really, he told me at the onset what it was to him when we started this. So this affair isn’t going anywhere and I find that now I need more than I have with Eric.” “Cat,
On Monday morning, Cat arrived at her new job early and finding as the day progressed, she didn’t have any trouble with the tasks given to her. Allison was more than happy with her standard of work. It was only just before lunch Cat gave a silent giggle.. Oh! She felt so much happier not having to worry about being asked to stay late or being left only with her boss. When the lunch hour did arrive, the friend who had told her about the position who happened to be a secretary on the same floor asked her to lunch to celebrate getting the job. “Julie! let’s not celebrate just yet. l’m still on probation and I don’t want to go out for lunch on my first day. What would Allison think?” Allison walked out from her office at that moment, saying. “Don’t be silly, Katherine. We have worked hard this morning, and you arrived early. Go enjoy a nice lunch. No need to watch the clock.” Allison liked to use Cat’s full name even after she had told her Cat was ok. Cat jumped up smiling.“Are you s
The doorbell brought Cat back to the present. She slid off the bed and headed for the front door. “Yes?” Calling from her side of the wooden door.“Locksmith Miss Sinclair.” An unfamiliar man’s voice replied.Cat sighed in relief. “Hang on.”Cat unlocked the door, letting the locksmith in. “Hi, I want the locks changed on both the front and back doors please, and a deadbolt put in as well.” While the locksmith got busy, she went about cleaning the townhouse, finding a few more things that belonged to Eric, and put them into the box in the bedroom. Closing the box up, she sealed it, writing his name and address neatly on the top and leaving it by the front door to give to Jo next time she saw her. Cat had never told her foster parents about Eric, and he had never asked to meet them. Jack and Dawn are old-school in their thinking, not that you had to be a virgin on your wedding night.What they didn’t believe in was casual sex. Sex was part of a deeper relationship with the person yo
“I...” Cat started to give a negative answer again, then stopped. It was only a dinner date, not sex, so she said instead. “Only if you never ask me again.”Eric leaned against the office door frame, looking her straight in the eyes before saying. “Never is a very long time, but alright I’ll agree. Only if you don’t want me to ask you out again.”Cat laughed at that reply. “Are you always so sure of yourself? And how would you know if I do want you to ask me out again?”“Trust me Cat, I would know.” Then adding, “Yes, I’m always sure of myself.” He said in a serious tone. Cat wrote her address on a piece of paper, then handed it over. She asked, “Seven o’clock.” Cat said one last thing before she left. “Eric, I really don’t want to see my face in the paper tomorrow. If it’s all the same to you, can we go somewhere low key?”Surprising Eric with her request...She sat up on the bed when she heard someone trying to push a key into the lock. When it didn’t work, he rattled the door. The
When he had turned up at her townhouse on time, Cat had let him in, then left him standing at the front door saying. “Just give me a second to grab my handbag and shoes and we can leave.” Eric’s eyes travelled over her body, making her feel very hot.She was wearing a simple emerald jersey dress in a shift design that skimmed her figure and didn’t hug. Racing into the bedroom away from Eric, who looked delicious in his soft jeans and cotton button-up shirt. Totally different from his work attire. Hot as hell, in the bedroom, she leaned her head against her bedroom wall, taking a minute to slow her racing heart.What had she agreed to here? After a minute, she knew she couldn’t stay here any longer and picked up her bag and slipped on her heels. Walking out to find Eric still by the front door, waiting. Walking up to him. “I’m ready to go” Eric reached down and lifted her hands to his lips and kissed the centre of her palm. The intense heat made Cat squeeze her legs together. Looking
