Katie“AHHHH!!!! YES!!!!! MARK!!!!!! AHHHHH!!!!” I fist the sheets in my hands as my sensitive body savors Mark’s powerful thrusts from behind. My mouth falls slightly open, wanting to scream more, but a wave of pleasure reduces me to a moaning mess. My walls wrap tight around his hard shaft and pull him deeper into me, but it isn’t deep enough. I want more. I slide my knees along the sheets and open legs and myself a little wider for him. He tightens his hold on my hips and thrusts harder into me. It is too much, and my arms give way. My head falls down onto the bed. Sweat drips down the side of my face. Several strands of my long hair fall across my face and stick to it while my mouth gaps open. I relish the glorious feeling pulsing through me. Each time, I don’t think it can be any better than the time before, but he proves me wrong each time. It is better, so much better. I dig my knees into the sheets, bracing for his next powerful thrust, which will hopefully b
With my eyes still closed, I move and pain shoots through my entire body. Why did I give into Mark and let him ravage me that much? I think every muscle in my body hurts. I can’t go back to the house looking like this. Evan and Izzy will tease me relentlessly. Hopefully, the painkillers work soon. This is unbearable.Mark leans over and kisses my cheek and softly whispers, “Let’s go home, baby.”That is easy for him to say because he doesn’t have every muscle in his body hurting right now. Luckily, Casper is young enough that he doesn’t have any idea about this sort of thing. That is until Izzy gave him a quick once over with the whole daddy eating mommy thing. Shit!! Casper already knows something because at the hospital, he wouldn’t let those women touch anyone and he sat right there on the middle of the table and announced to everyone that Frank eats Izzy just like daddy eats mommy. My stomach twists. I shake my head and silently hope things won’t be that bad.As soon
I wake with voices swimming around me and when I open my eyes, Casper is staring at me from the edge of the couch. He flashes me a brilliant smile and asks, “Mommy, are you feeling better?”I pat his head and nod. “Yes, I’m feeling better. I’m still really sore, but I’m not as tired now. Are your uncles and aunts here?”He quickly nods his head. “But daddy won’t let me in the kitchen, so I came to sit with you.”I move slightly, trying to sit up a little. I furrow my eyebrows together. “Why won’t daddy let you in the kitchen?”He shrugs his shoulders and whines, “I don’t know. They just said it is important.”I push myself up into a sitting position and look at my watch. Dang, I’ve been asleep for hours. Why didn’t anyone wake me up? I move to get up off the couch, and pain shoots through my body. The bulk of the ache is from last night’s activities, but there are muscles aching now which didn’t before. I glance down at the couch and massage the back of my neck. The couc
Well, it is mean to do what we did to Katie, but I want to know. After she fell asleep on the couch earlier, Shane came home, and I asked about her symptoms when she was pregnant with Casper. Shane chuckled and initially asked if I had already gotten Katie pregnant, and I was honest. I told him I didn’t know, and I wanted to find out subtly.He immediately gave me a smile and told me to fix seafood dishes. He said Katie almost immediately hated the smell of seafood, even though it was her favorite food. Of course, I asked mom to help along with Wanda and Izzy when they arrived at the house. Wanda was so excited that Katie might be pregnant again she couldn’t hardly contain her excitement. Luckily, she managed to hide it as soon as Katie walked into the kitchen. Katie still doesn’t know we all did it for an experiment. I’ve also talked to Brenda, and she is going to help us get Katie talked into taking an actual pregnancy test. I have tried talking to her about the possibilit
Casper is still afraid and trembles in my arms when we enter the hospital. His little eyes peek out from my shoulder and dart back and forth, looking for danger, but he is slowly starting to feel better. The trauma from that day is slowly melting away. I’m sure it helps he is carrying a container of cookies for Katie and Shane. My mom also said he couldn’t have any cookies until Katie said he could, so I’m assuming he is a little anxious about possibly getting some treats soon. I kiss the top of his head and tighten my arms around him, trying to wrap him in a protective cocoon. Once we make our way to the cafeteria, I put my wiggling son down as soon as we spot his mother. Like a rocket, Casper bolts towards her. “Mommy!! Cookies!!!” He waves the container in the air. The staff standing next to Katie and throughout the area giggle, and my son’s excitement is contagious. Grins slide across their face as they watch the small boy beaming. Our son holds on tight to the contai
I still don’t know why I agreed to this stupid physical exam, but everyone seemed to think that it is for the best, just in case. I don’t have a clue what the just in case is referring to, but to make everyone happy, I agreed. I do have some time available right after lunch, so why not. Everyone follows me back to my office. Ming, Pha, Beam and Brenda follow me into my exam room. I watch as Pha nods to Brenda and then looks back at me. “Ai’Kit, I will need a urine sample.” Oh, I hate doing this.Brenda turns and gets both Ming and I a small cup and we walk off towards the restrooms.I do exactly what I tell my patients to do all the time and I’m quickly back in the exam room. I have to wait off to the side as Pha and Beam go through the usual steps to exam Ming. I do have to admit that Pha and Beam are being rather thorough, and I guess it doesn’t hurt to get a complete physical from time to time. I can’t help but to chuckle at Ming when he begins to whine as Brenda brings i
I’m still a little shocked. Yesterday, I found out I’m pregnant again. This time around, Mark is here, and I don’t think anything can tear him away from me and our children now, which gives me a sense of relief. The love and tenderness he shows me is amazing. I have never thought in my wildest dreams I could have a relationship like this. It is perfect. Well, not exactly perfect, but as perfect as I can get. I feel so fortunate to have such an amazing fiancé and his parents are just as amazing. I keep putting off the topic of where we will live after we get married. I’m so torn. I really want to go back home and be around my friends and Mark’s family, but the picture is always shattered when I think about my family. Why do I have such a hard family to deal with?My dream now would be that my family can handle the fact I’m marrying the love of my life and we have children together, but I’m not going to risk my happy life with Mark by allowing my family back into our lives.
I take a deep breath. Tomorrow is the day I marry the love of my life. My heart races just thinking about it. I can’t wait, but this is going to be the longest 24 hours ever. Initially, I thought Katie was crazy for wanting to work today, but now I understand why. I triple check our bags and make sure everything is in them. Taking another look around our bedroom, my eyes stop on the nightstand. A smirk dances across my lips, and I walk over to it and open the drawer. A chuckle spills from me as I spot the box of condoms. Well, I definitely don’t need them anymore. Shaking my head and with the smirk still on my face, I close the drawer and walk into the closet to make sure I’m not forgetting anything from in there. Casper suddenly runs in the room and then into the closet. His little round face beams with excitement. “Daddy!! It is time to go eat and see mommy and Jenny!! Come on!!”Before I can say anything, he has his small hands on the back of legs trying to push me
With a glass of sparkling cider in one hand, I carefully wipe of the crumbs from the front of my floor length formal dark red dress. The paper napkins I’m using snag on a few of the embedded jewels along the front. My frustrations bubble up as I grind my teeth together. But this little setback can’t damper my mood. This is a big night for me. I’m finally accomplishing another one of my goals and dreams. Mark waves a couple of white linen napkins in the area as he rushes towards me. “Look what I have found. Stop trying to get the food off. I’ll get it done.” His playful smile widens as he gives me a wink. “In no time, I’ll have you back looking as beautiful as ever.” I sigh and let my shoulders drop. In his black tuxedo, he bends over in front of me and very carefully wipes all the little food particles off me without smearing it across the smooth satin fabric. I glance around the venue and notice a few people giving us some questioning looks, but no one has the courage
As he opens his mouth, my parents and brother casually walk into the house. My brother’s eyes pop wide open as he looks around, taking everything in and whispers, “Wow!”My heart nearly stops and my breath hitches. What are they doing here? They don’t have anything nice to say to me. Why would Mark bring them here? Why?My smile evaporates and morphs into a frown. I shuffle backwards as I slowly shake my head. My father gives me a stern look, which also holds his usual scrutinizing eye. The one which says I’m not good enough. My chest tightens. I don’t want them here. Casper runs towards us. “DADDY! YOU ARE HOME!!” He holds his little arms wide open and leaps into his father’s waiting arms. Normally, I would smile and join them in a group hug, but I can’t take my eyes off my family. The only thing that connects us is our DNA. Nothing else they have done would be something a normal family would do. My brother ignores Casper, stilling gawking at the inside of the house
I cradle my adorable daughter in my arms as I sway back and forth. Her long dark lashes flutter as she fights to stay awake. I softly hum a tune and gently pat her bottom. Everything seems so peaceful and perfect now, but it wasn’t months ago when she was born. When I had finally woken up, I nearly had a panic attack. My pregnant belly was gone, and my precious baby was nowhere to be seen. Luckily, Mark and Casper were there at my bedside, along with his parents, making sure I knew everything was alright. Our precious little baby was with the doctors, but Mark vowed to do whatever he needs to ensure our daughter’s health. I would be lying if I said his words calmed me down. Nothing he could say would ease my nerves, but it was his calm voice and the determination in his eyes which finally settled me down. Our daughter had to stay in the intensive care unit for a few days, but she was a fighter and could soon come home. Mark’s mother steps into the room and softly asks, “Is
KatieThe past few months have been a blur. If I didn’t have constant reminders on social media about it, I might forget all about Tiffany and the nightmare she caused. I stare down at my phone on the dining room table and at the latest social media post from a friend. I shake my head and sigh. When are they going to let this end? The post has a picture of Tiffany, which I’m sure she doesn’t know someone took, where she is picking up garbage in the company’s parking garage next to the building. Her previous high-end designer clothes are nowhere to be found, and she is wearing the company’s maintenance uniform. Below her picture is a caption wondering who the designer of the classy outfit is. I roll my eyes.Tiffany is working to pay off our doctor bills without complaining. Mark’s mother is still fuming at her, but she isn’t throwing it in Tiffany’s face. Everyone else should follow that example.Mark kisses the top of my head and rubs my shoulders. “How are you feeling thi
I sip on my champagne while I raise an eyebrow, hiding my smirk behind the glass. Tiffany holds her head high and walks up to a person she thinks is me, but it isn’t. He looks similar to me, but that is where the likeness ends. Her face contorts and her mouth opens slightly, but nothing comes out. I choke down a chuckle. The decoy stares at her and grunts, “What do you want? You look like you have something you want to say to me.”She continues to stare at him for a few moments before she shakes her head. “No. I thought you were someone else. I’ll go look for him elsewhere.”Her eyes quickly scan the area. I duck behind a few other guests as she looks in my direction. It isn’t time for her to see me yet. Her gaze locks on the back of another guy on the other side of the room, who she thinks is me. I choke down another laugh. It is only going to get worse from here on out. Before she reaches the guy, he turns around, and she instantly halts in her tracks. Her face conto
MarkI take a deep breath as I walk into the venue with my parents, wearing the same black tuxedo I did for the charity event. Katie and Casper are home, per my request. Tonight will probably be stressful and potentially traumatizing, which neither of them need. It is best to finish this off and give Katie the details later. If things go the way I’m thinking they will, Katie should see everything through social media. In addition, Casper is still healing from the last traumatic event, and he doesn’t need another one on top of it. I could the see fear in his eyes when we were talking about tonight’s event, and there is no way I was going to put him through that and make his mental health worse. My mother pats my arm. “Are you alright?”I nod. “Yeah.”My father glances to his side at me. “Are you ready for what needs to be done tonight?”A snort slips from me. “Yes. I’m more than ready. I’m hoping everything will go according to our plan, and Tiffany will learn her lesson.”
KatieI sit beside Casper’s bed and stare down at him. The last few days have been a whirlwind of people and emotions. Working with the doctor and our family and friends, Casper has finally calmed down and realizes Tiffany can’t hurt him here. He feels safe at home, but the fear isn’t gone or under control. At any minute, something random might spark his fear again and he will have another panic attack or a terrible nightmare. My rage continues to bubble under the surface, just waiting for something to trip me. When I get my hands on that woman, she will find out I’m not the naïve person she thinks I am. If I do it right, I’ll instill fear in her to the point she will never think of doing something like this again. Being a doctor has advantages people wouldn’t think about.Mark walks into Casper’s bedroom. “Is he asleep?”I nod. “Yeah. I want an update, but not in here.”I turn to the young lady standing in the doorway and motion for her to come in. “Keep an eye on our bab
I tiptoe out of Casper’s room and quietly shut the door behind me. A few staff wait anxiously in the hallway. I clear my throat and turn towards them. “Someone needs to stay with him at all times right now. He is having the same recurring nightmares, and only a soothing touch will ease his mind and let him move past the dream. Do any of you want to sit with him for a bit?”All of them quickly nod their heads. I glance back over my shoulder at the closed door. “I’ll let you decide who goes in right now. Everyone must be quiet and not wake him up. I just got him back to sleep. I don’t think he slept at all last couple of nights.”They nod and look at each other, silently debating on who should go in first. My heart aches and my mind swirls. Silently, I turn and head down the stairs. I’m not sure where I’m going, but I need to do something. When I reach the bottom of the stairs, one of the staff timidly calls out, “Please, use the wheelchair.”Without looking back, I nod and
MarkI storm through the building and into my office, not bothering to acknowledge anyone along the way. If I provide any reaction, it is a grunt or a snort. There is another important issue consuming my mind, and I must address it before I can handle anything else. Though I’ve had the weekend to calm down, nothing can cool my boiling anger simmering under my skin, waiting for the right moment to explode. Employees scurry out of my way while murmurs float through the air. But no one dares to say anything loud enough for me to hear. My scowl deepens as I storm around my desk and yank my chair out. “Jack!” Before his name leaves my mouth, he is in my office and right next to my desk with his tablet in hand. “Do you need me to do anything?”My eyes dart to him. “Yeah. I need you to contact everyone who has agreed previously to work with and help me. We are ramping up the next phase of my plan.”A sinister smirk bubbles up, and I don’t bother to hide it. If I could have handl
