Later that night, Eric left the apartment to meet with Alex so both of them could deal with Eva. She didn’t ask to come and honestly didn’t want to.

Eric said in parting. “Might be an idea to call Mum and Jo while I’m gone, so they don’t hate me so much.” Before kissing her on the mouth hungrily. Then he was gone. Cat thought about what he had said and realised maybe he was right and it would help her take her mind off her birth mother.

Cat still hurt from the fact Eva wanted to make money off her in this disgraceful manner. But like the old saying went, you could pick your friends, but you can’t choose your family.

For Cat, it just reinforced why she didn’t have Eva in her life to start with.

Cat picked up the phone and called Dawn first. The first thing they talked about was the fact that Eric and she had sorted out their differences.

Dawn was over the moon. Reminding Cat that marriage was about working on the relationship that just didn’t stop because you had a piece of paper. Cat f

    After four weeks had passed, there was still no word from Eva. Everyone had collectively reached the conclusion that her sudden disappearance resulted from Eric and Alex’s conversation with Cat’s birth mother. It seemed that their discussion had the intended effect, causing Eva to flee the town.Cat was pleased because, even though she had nothing to be ashamed of, she still didn’t want to air her dirty laundry in public.It was bad enough with stories about Cat being Alex’s daughter, which she didn’t find so embarrassing, although there was a lot of speculation about how that came about. Who was Cat’s mother? It wouldn’t be long before they found out she had gone into foster care.

    “How did you get in?” Cat asked as her mind raced. What was she going to do? Did she have time to wait for someone to save her, or did she need to save herself?“It was incredibly simple. After you left yesterday, did you even take a moment to check if anyone was trying to sneak under the garage roller door? I simply waited until you all drove away and swiftly ducked under the door.”“So you have been here since yesterday?” The sick feeling was back in her stomach, the thought of Claudia having free rein in the house last night and lying in wait for this morning. Picking the best time to come out of her hiding spot.“Yes, it was easy, like I said. I bought provisions with me, of course, and fresh water was available.” Claudia pointed to the tap on the kitchen island.Cat didn’t look towards where she was pointing, unable to take her eyes off the madwoman in front of her and the gun in her hand.“Unbelievable,” thought Cat. She couldn’t fathom how Claudia had managed to reach her so eas

    They didn’t stick around for the police to arrive; it wasn’t as if they were fleeing the scene of a crime; the perpetrator was still there. Eric informed her that when the police wanted a statement, they could find them at the hospital and get statements after the babies had arrived. Claudia wasn’t going anywhere but a jail cell or another mental hospital.Getting Cat to the hospital was their top priority. She agreed with him, especially as another wave of pain hit her. Evan took the wheel so that Eric could sit in the back with Cat. She leaned into him, squeezing his hand each time the pain intensified. Cat noticed him wince a few times. It was a small comfort that he only felt a fraction of the pain she was going through.“Breathe,” Eric instructed, employing the breathing techniques they had learnt together. Cat stared at him for a moment, wondering if he was joking. How could she focus on her breathing when they were racing through traffic, desperately trying to reach the hospital

    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

    When they pulled into the driveway of their new home. Cat saw that Alex’s car was already in the driveway. When they got out, Cat walked over to the car, seeing it was empty.Looking around, she couldn’t spot them. They might have headed around the house towards the beach. Eric took her hand in his as the guards fanned out. Evan walking closest to them. As they neared the house, Alex and Rebecca rounded the side of the house, heading back their way. When Rebecca and Cat saw each other, Cat let go of Eric's hand and Rebecca did the same with Alex. They walked faster to meet each other halfway. The women embraced as if they hadn’t seen each other in months.“I’m so happy for you.” Rebecca whispered in her ear. Just before the men reached them.Alex leaned in to kiss Cat on the cheek. They had found it harder to have a normal father daughter closeness. Cat knew it was new for them both and she would be uncomfortable if he swept her into his arms to hug and kiss her like Rebecca had done.

    It was lunchtime before they left the bedroom. Her only motivation to get up had been the promise of seeing the progress on the house.Cat fixed them some sandwiches while Eric called the security team to let them know. They would leave in 30 minutes and to have the cars ready to go.Then he sat down beside her to enjoy the food she had prepared. Which wasn’t much. Just chicken and salad on rye. Cat got up to get the mayo out of the fridge, handing it to Eric. Before sitting down to her own sandwich.Eric offered the mayo to her. Cat shook her head, taking a bite. Thinking for a moment. “I want to invite Alex and Rebecca to the house if they are free.”Eric frowned at her. “Cat…”“Eric, before you say anything, remember, he is my father. If you have a problem with him, you need to sort it out. I want him and Rebecca in my life and the lives of our children. I think after I just came home with you last night, it would be good to clear the air and let them know I’m ok… we are ok.”Eric e

    Eric’s hands moved up and down her back, causing warmth to spread through her body. She had missed this and him while she had been gone. Their quick coupling at the charity event hadn’t satiated her. it had been fun and exciting. Cat had never had sex like that before with so many people in the next room. She should be embarrassed that Evan had heard it all. But somehow she wasn’t. Did that make her an exhibitionist, or was she so comfortable with Evan she had thought so little about it after she had walked out and found him waiting?Pulling back so she could see Eric’s face. “You know Evan stood guard outside the Cleaner’s closet last night, don’t you? He heard everything.”Eric smirked. He didn’t seem to care about this bit of information. “So?”“It might not be a big deal to you, but I’m not used to having sex like that.”Eric shook his head. “Making love Cat. Having sex is not what we are about. Having sex is so casual. Almost meaningless.”Cat’s heart swelled at his words. She kne

    Cat fixed her eyes on him, wondering what he had to tell her. But she knew he needed to hear her side of the tale first. “When Eva came to the office, she tried to blackmail me for money. She claimed that if I paid her, she would reveal my father’s name to me.” Cat couldn’t hide from the truth as she kept her gaze on his face.Eric frowned, expressing his disbelief. “I can’t believe you didn’t tell me,” he said.Cat chuckled, trying to lighten the mood. “Honestly, my childhood was far from pleasant. I wanted to shield you from as much of it as possible. It’s a dark part of my past. You saw Eva, Eric. She looks like someone you’d find on a street corner. It’s embarrassing to have any connection with her. The day they removed me from her care, I was terrified, but the day they took me away from her was the best day of my life.”Cat’s confession hung heavy in the air as Eric processed her words. He had always known that Cat had a difficult past. He reached out and took her hand, offering
