The next morning. They sat on the balcony that overlook the double bay area. Cat picked up her orange juice, looking at Eric as he read the morning paper. They had just enjoyed a leisurely Sunday breakfast. Dawn had taken herself off early to do some shopping before heading home to Cowra after lunch.It was time for the anticipated fight she knew she was going to have with Eric. Cat couldn’t put it off any longer. “I’m going back to work tomorrow.”Her statement made Eric’s head snap up. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”“My doctor cleared me to go, Eric. So, unless you’re firing me, I’m going. I will not be stuck at home barefoot and pregnant. I must properly train Tilly for the role. It’s not like my job has any heavy lifting. I will not sit at home and do nothing. You have an option to get with the program.” Cat smiled at Eric before adding. “Or I’ll get your mother involved.” That was her trump card. Eric’s mother had worked until the last few weeks of her pregnancy.Eric angrily

Cat got her way Monday morning. She sat in the car with Eric as he drove them to work. Peters and another man, named Wilson, who she hadn’t met before, were in the car behind them.Eric had told her after his meeting with security last night that he was hiring around the clock protection. Also, one of the safest places for her during the day was the office.“Oh, so now it’s safe. I’m allowed to go back to work.” Cat stood glaring at him with her hands on her hips. “The next time you want to discuss my safety with your hot shot security guys, maybe include the person you are trying to protect.”Eric had just gripped the back of her head and pulled her in for a hard kiss. Cat knew it was to shut her up, but after a few minutes, she didn’t care.They found themselves on top of the lounge with Cat spread out over his thighs and Eric’s hand in her panties. It took them both a few moments to remember that Cat couldn’t for another week. Eric had rested his head against her before saying, “I j

Cat was working at her desk the next day when Tilly took a call from reception.“Cat, it’s for you.” Tilly let her know after putting the call on hold.Cat looked up from the contract she was vetting. Smiling at Tilly, Cat lifted the phone to take the call. “Cat Sinc… Logan speaking.” Oops, she needed to get used to using her married name. The problem was, for years, she had used Sinclair.“Hi Mrs Logan, we have a lady down here in reception demanding to speak to you.” Came Cathy’s voice over the phone. She was manning the reception desk today with Amanda, who was new and had replaced Tilly.Cat had tried to get the staff to still call her Cat instead of Mrs Logan, because they already had a Mrs Logan in the building, Allison. Other than a handful of people, everyone else insisted on calling her by her married name. Then Cathy said in a quieter tone, as if she didn’t want anyone to overhear her. “She said she is your mother.”Cat frowned. When Cathy had first said a lady, her first tho

Upon seeing Eva Sinclair, it was clear that life had not treated her well. At 43, she appeared significantly older. Once, Eva had been striking with her tall 5.8 feet stature and her well-proportioned figure. Her blonde hair had cascaded in waves down to her waist, and her blue eyes shone brightly, even on the times when she was under the influence. Now, the situation was starkly different.Eva was still tall, but she had gained weight, particularly around her midsection, a feature that usually wouldn’t be a concern. However, looking at Eva, it was evident that her lifestyle choices, including heavy drinking, had taken their toll, as seen by her enlarged stomach. Moreover, her skin had lost its vitality, and her once vivid eyes now lacked their shine that Cat remembered.Her once beautiful long hair was now gone, replaced by short, teased clumps that had lost their blonde hue replaced with a yellowish tinge. Cat thought that smoking had finally taken its toll. A suspicion confirmed whe

Cat stopped where she was with the door opened only a few inches, but the fresh air from outside not mixed with the smell in here was a blessing of relief. Cat left it open and stood in front of the door. facing Eva once more. “How didn’t he know about me? You got pregnant to catch him, right? If he didn’t know, how would that work?”“He was paranoid about birth control? Not only did he ask if I was on the pill, but he used a condom. Anyway, what he didn’t know was I put a hole in the second one we used that night. I wasn’t on the pill. I knew I was pregnant three weeks later. By then, I had found out his family had disowned him. After I called them to talk to him. I ended up speaking to his father. He told me about disowning his son and he wouldn’t pay a cent for any bastard child. So I did the next best thing, or so I thought. Hitched my waggon to the next available thing, thinking he was a safer bet. Well, he wasn’t. He had you DNA tested, found out you were not his and almost beat

Eric marched Cat to the lifts. Pressing the up button. “Why didn’t you call me?” He demanded. Cat could feel the tension rolling off him in waves.Cat looked at Eric. His frown, still present, was a stark contrast to the soft light of concern in his eyes. “She was my problem. She wasn’t your psycho ex PA. Eva is my past.” Cat’s answer held a defiance and vulnerability, revealing the need in her to shield others from the shadows of her past.Hopefully, that was the last Cat would see of Eva. If Cat never saw her again, she wouldn’t care.Seeing that she was still shaken, Eric’s stance softened, and he instinctively placed his hands on her waist. “Cat, she was about to strike you. I don’t let anyone hit my wife.” Eric moved her into the lift once it arrived.Once the doors shut, enclosing them in on their own. She turned to face him, stepping up to him so only an inch separated their bodies. Locking her gaze onto his, her fingers curled into the lapels of his dark grey suit jacket. Ancho

It was only later that night, Cat found the chance to ponder Eva’s words about her father, Alex McDonnell. Was he Scottish or Irish heritage? It might explain her red hair. Alex had the darkest auburn hair. She had never given much thought to the man who might be her father, mainly because her mother had always claimed his identity was a mystery.Cat was nestled in the corner of Eric’s study, curled up on a comfortable love seat. Her Mac laptop rested on her knees. She had been scouring the internet for any information she could find about Alex.Everyone knew who he was—a 45-year-old man at the helm of a company with a global reach surpassing Eric’s business. Cat didn’t know exactly what she hoped to find, but she was confident that she wouldn’t find it online. It was just business information and photos of him and his wife at social events.At Cat’s sigh, Eric looked up from his desk. Dim lights filled the masculine room. Eric had his desk light on beside him. Eric had pulled the curt

Eric lifted a glass of orange juice and a glass of wine off the tray of a passing waiter. Handing the orange juice to her. They were at a charity event. Allison was a prominent supporter of. Tonight’s fund raiser hadn’t been arranged by her.Cat wasn’t on duty tonight; instead, she was present as a guest. Meanwhile, Allison was deep in conversation with the co-founder of Women and Children First, an organisation that provides housing and food to women and children affected by domestic abuse. They also assist in navigating the complexities of involving police and agencies, cutting through bureaucratic red tape to prevent these individuals from becoming mere statistics.Eric wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her close. Cat felt tense. This marked their first attendance at such an event as a married couple... She could not help but notice the curious glances directed at her, especially towards her growing belly.“Don’t let them get to you.” Eric leaned into whisper in her ear. He g

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

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

“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

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. Hopefully, the trail ended there and a new story would distract the media away from her life story.They have been coming out to the new house every weekend, since Cat had moved back in with Eric. Their purpose is to oversee the many changes being made to the place, as well as to meet with the painters and d

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

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
