"Huh... Mondays are the worst" Emma said to herself.
Not only did she have a lot of work to do. She also had to go home late. Apart from all the work she had to take care of, her li
"You guys are living together now?" Karen asked. "It really has gotten to that point?""Shut up, you idiot" Emma said laughing. "I'm just spending the night""Yeah sure" Karen said. "Don't think I didn't see that sexy thing you put in that bag".The door bell rang and Emma was glad for the interruption."That's him, get the door, Karen" she said, then she added, "please, don't"Karen stared at her, feigning ignorance. "don't what?" she asked."Just don't" Emma repeated. "you know what I mean".Daniel rang the bell again. When the door swung open, his hello caught as Karen smiled at him."Hi, Karen" he said."Hi, Daniel" Karen replied. Come in and have a seat.""Thanks" he said as he sat. "Where's Emma?" he asked."Oh, she's almost ready" Karen replied, then she added. "So I gotta ask... What are you
Daniel laughed as he stood aside to watch her. Sleeves rolled up above her elbows, she stirred with a look of grim determination. After a minute or two, apparently satisfied things were back under control, she shot him a look."Green peppers" she said."Right away" quickly, he scooped the pieces of pepper into his palms and brought them over to her. Leaning over her shoulder, he dropped them into the pan. "Allright?".He stayed there, close enough to feel the warmth of her back against his chest. "Is this a takeover attempt, then?" he asked."You could call it that, I guess." she replied. Her hands on the spatula had gone very still. "Or you might think of it as a life saving rescue to avoid death by starvation. Do you mind?" she asked."Not at all" he said truthfully. "Would it make any difference if I did?""None at all" she replied. "What are we doing about the stock?".
Emma stared at herself in the bathroom mirror. She was putting on the sexy nightie she brought with her. And Daniel was waiting for her in the bedroom.Relax, he’s seen you naked before. She told herself. Many times."Emma, I really need you to come out here." Daniel's voice came from the bedroom.Emma grinned at the tight need and impatience straining his voice even as it fired up her blood.But her heart still slammed into her ribs like a wild thing when she took a deep breath and headed for the bedroom. In the doorway, she paused and cocked one hip.He was poised on the edge of the bed, minus his shirt, his hair dishevelled, as if he had been running his fingers through it.His gaze latched onto her face, then, almost immediately, dropped to her outfit. His breath hissed from between his lips and his hands bunched beside his thighs.Almost rabidly, he devoured every inch of
Need ploughed through her, heightened by the pressure of his groin pressing against her swollen clit and her desperation to feel him move."Fuck me, Daniel". After another teeth grinding moment, he pulled out and slammed back in. Her eyes rolled, every inch of her body steeped in bliss as he fucked her.She revelled in Daniel's every groan, every kick of her heart and every push towards that rarely attained peak of sexual fulfilment.Even when his fingers dug into her hips a little too forcefully, when his thrusts grew frenzied, she welcomed the tinge of pain along with the pleasure because she knew her pleasure was his goal.She wrapped her arms around him, kissed him deeper, threw her hips up to meet his thrust, giving and giving as much as he was giving her.Daniel dropped forward, pressing his hard body into hers, his fingers spiking into her hair. "Are you close, Emma?" he breathed against her
Emma was beginning to feel out of place.They walked into the kitchen. A beautiful woman with a perfectly coiffed bob looked up from the food she had been stirring. "Sweetheart" she said as she stretched her hands towards Daniel and he came forward to give her a hug. The sense of calm that always settled on him when he was with his family wrapped around him like a warm embrace.Though his mother and sister had lived in the house for only four years, it was home because they were there.His mother might have initially balked at him purchasing this home for her and Alexa in one of the wealthiest neighborhoods, but there had never been any doubt about how much she adored the airy, state of the art kitchen. With its wall of windows, restaurant style ranges and cooktops, Lana had instantly fallen in love.And it was in this room that he usually found her.Like now.Lana stood at the stov
"So how did you and my brother meet?" Alexa asked."Ermm.. We met some months ago. February to be precise. We have a mutual friend and we met at his place.""How serious are you guys" Alexa asked.Emma smiled. "You don't beat around the bush do you?" she asked.Alexa laughed. "It's better to say things as they are. Don't you think? You know we'd all want to know that. I'm just really curious..Daniel says I talk too much but I don't care".Emma laughed then she nodded. "Just like your brother" she said. "Daniel and I met in February, but we got together just two months ago" Emma said. Trying to truthful."I kinda work for him too. And I'm guessing he hasn't told you a lot about us... So I think it would be better if you just ask him.... If you wanna know how serious this thing is. I hope you understand.. But I don't want to... You know.."."I understand" Alexa said.
Emma didn’t try to stop him. Roughly he pulled the silk top down her arms and off of her. Her breath came in fast, agitated rasps. He pulled Emma's pajama bottoms off just as swiftly, and his own boxer shorts, goaded by the perfume of her arousal, and by the urgency of her soft hands on his body.She wrapped herself around him as he mounted her, as he pushed into her, into the tight, slick depths of her. She gasped, and clung to him, and he groaned deep in his chest, overcome by the sharp, biting pleasure that rocketed through him.Emma arched against him, bringing them even closer together. The bedcovers were tangled around them; automatically he kicked them away.She moved like a wild thing beneath him, locked into an age-old rhythm, uttering guttural, uninhibited sounds that pushed him right to the edge. She curled a leg around his thigh as if to lever herself over him.Daniel easily rolled the two of them to pos
Daniel came into her office just as she was hanging up. "You look happy". he said."I was talking to Ben". Emma replied."Does he always makes you smile like that?" he asked sourly."Sometimes" Emma replied.He harrumphed sarcastically. He had been in a foul mood since they got back. Emma stared at him. "Are you going to sit down?" she asked when he made no effort to sit. She knew was that something was definitely not right with him, and wanted to know what it was.He stared at her for a moment and then took a seat."Ermm... I wanted to give you these" Emma said, pushing some files toward him. "I know I could have just brought them over tomorrow, but there's something else I would like to talk to you about.He waited for her to talk. Emma took in a deep breath. She had asked him to come to her office and now that he was here, she didn't know how to begin.
Emma stood in front of the bathroom mirror and looked at her reflection.She had a towel around her. After she had breastfed and put Jack to sleep, she and Daniel had returned to their bedroom. And right now, Emma couldn't remember if she had ever been this happy in her life.... She couldn't believe how amazing everything had turned out.When she opened the door and stepped into the bedroom, Daniel was on the bed, his chest bare, reading something on his phone... Which he dropped when she came out of the bathroom.Damn, he thought. She'd never stop being sexy to him. She always and would always have that effect on him.Emma blushed at his reaction, then she went to get dressed. She put on the sexy nightie Karen had given her as a gift for her wedding night.When she turned, Daniel was still watching her. Not bothering to hide the desire in his eyes."Come here" he said. Tapping the
The door opened and Jared walked into the room. They hadn't really talked since he arrived but he had been nicer, smiled more and very warm towards her... And especially to little Jack.He wasn't so so terribly intimidating anymore. He had turned out to be surprisingly charming. And he loved Jack. His new nephew. He’d perch Jack on his big, broad chest while he read, informing the baby of any interesting movement on the share market.“This boy is a Rohan indeed,” he’d declared one day. "Can’t start learning too soon.”But right now, as he walked into the room and asked Karen and Monica to excuse them so they could talk in private, Emma wasn't sure of what he had to say. After they left, he turned to her and Emma waited for him to speak."You look very beautiful, Emma" Jared said. "My brother is very lucky to have you"Emma smiled sweetly at him
"So I know this probably isn't what I should be talking about right now... But how about we push the wedding forward and get married in three weeks? If you agree of course" Daniel asked.Emma stared up at him."Yeah" Daniel continued. "All three of us are family already. Why wait any longer? There's no reason to. Your mom is going to be here to see the baby, why not invite our families to come see the baby and attend our wedding at once"Emma smiled at him. "Yes. Let's do it" she said. "I gotta say, I like this loving, caring, soft side of you"Daniel simply grinned and leaned down to kiss her again. As he did, the door opened and Karen, Frank, Tom and Monica came into the room."Hey, Daniel" Karen said playfully as they moved closer. "Let my girl rest a bit before you get her pregnant again"Everyone laughed at Karen's joke...including Daniel. "Oh, he's so cute" Karen murmured as t
Dr Davis also treated him with considerable deference as he monitored Emma's labour, assuring them both that everything was proceeding normally.The contractions were coming fast. She barely had time to catch her breath in between the waves of pain. Daniel sat beside her, watching anxiously, giving her his hand to grip, repeating what the doctor said—head engaged, won’t be long, bearing down soon—as though she couldn’t hear for herself, or he needed to assure himself that this agony had a short time limit.Emma didn’t try to speak. Wanting to remember everything about having this baby. Her entire concentration was focussed on willing her baby to make a safe journey from her womb, imagining every pain as a positive step forward. The urge to push came suddenly and was almost uncontrollable.“Not too hard, Emma,” the doctor instructed. "Slow it down if you can, a nice, gentle passage, no tearing. Yes, that’s good…coming now…head in my
"Are you going to the office?" Emma asked as she walked into Daniel's room the next day.Daniel turned to look at her as he unbuttoned his shirt. "No I'm not. I can't leave you here alone. I have a meeting though. But I will be doing it via video call" he replied."You can leave if you have to" Emma said. "Apparently, this baby isn't ready to be born yet"Daniel smiled at her. I'm sorry that you're uncomfortable, baby." He said. " But when the baby comes, you will be so happy that all of this won't matter. You are going to have someone you are gonna love more than anything on the world. Infact I gotta say, I'm little jealous of all the love our baby is going to be getting. I'm so used to having you all to myself now"Emma laughed and her body shook. "Relax" she said. "I'm going to love the heck out of the both of you. Infact i—"She stopped suddenly in her attempt to walk towards him. Pain... Anguis
"Oh my God" Emma said to Karen and Monica as she returned to the living room from the bathroom. "That must have been the tenth time I've been to the bathroom in the last two hours""It's also been the tenth time since you have told us" Karen said sarcastically and Monica giggled. They had come to visit Emma at Daniel's house.Emma rolled her eyes. "Yeah, it must be really hard for you to hear" she said.Daniel was in the room too. He sat at another table working on his laptop. But he was clearly listening to them because he giggled at Karen's comment.Emma turned to him and rolled her eyes, which made him laugh."Hey honey" he said to Emma, while smiling. "Is there anything you need me to do for you?""Yeah right. Like you haven't done enough" Emma said, jokingly pointing at her stomach. Daniel simply exchanged glances with Monica and Karen and they laughed again. Emma smiled too.
“How about breakfast in bed?” Daniel asked.“Mmm, that sounds nice. I don’t think I can move and I’m suddenly feeling lazy.” Emma replied.He smiled because he couldn’t imagine anything better than the two of them sharing an intimate meal in bed. Hell, if he had his way they wouldn’t leave the bedroom for the rest of the day.“Let me go fix something up for the both of us " He said. "You stay here and get comfortable. I’ll be right back.”He kissed her nose and then carefully disentangled himself from the warm clasp of her body. He eased her onto her side, pulled the rumpled sheet over her and rolled toward the nightstand, sitting up and putting his legs over the edge of the bed.He glanced back to see that she’d immediately commandeered his pillow, which made him chuckle, because it was exactly what she’d done in the past."What?" Emma asked as she watched him. "Why are you smiling
His breath escaped in a long hiss and then she slid down, resheathing him all over again.“You drive me crazy,” he muttered.She smiled, clearly satisfied with his admission.He savored the feel of her much smaller hands engulfed by his. They held on tightly as she began a slow, rhythmic ride. Their gazes locked. They never looked away, never broke eye contact as she made love to him, driving him closer and closer to ultimate release.Emma expelled a pent up breath as he stretched her, as the sweet burning of her body molding to him became the single thought on her mind.He reached for her breasts and she covered his hands with hers as he massaged her breasts, and she continued rocking her hips in a steady rhythm, tossing her hair over one shoulder, it became a curtain over their hands, over her breast.He loved her hair, she knew that, and he still did, because he took a chunk of it and roped
It was easy to forget all that had happened between them now. It was easy to forget the weeks of pain and loneliness. It was easy to imagine that they’d never been apart and that they had always been together, home in bed, just waking in Daniel's place—their home.This was the healing they needed. Emma smiled into his neck.------------------------------Daniel lay there, Emma in his arms, thinking about what had just happened. On the surface it had been a very quick, very hot sexual interlude. One of the best he’d ever had.But it went deeper. It wasn’t just sex. It wasn't like all the other times they had been together. If it was just sex, his heart wouldn’t feel as though it was going to burst out of his chest. He wouldn’t be so overwhelmed that he had no idea how to process what he felt.It was… It was more intense than sex had ever been between them. They had been a study in hot, flirty, fun in
