She wore a hunter green sweater dress and burgundy leggings. Her knee-high dark brown boots matched the decorative buttons on her dress almost perfectly. There was a slight baby bump that was showing.Jolene smiled at her from her hospital bed. Daphne had brought her several day dresses and sun dresses that made it easier for her. Today’s dress was long, black and had skeletons dancing around the bottom. It did not take her long to get rid of the pinks and pastels that Hank preferred. Now she wore the darker colors with a goth vibe that she liked.“You’re not in high school anymore.” Hank would tell her. “It’s time to dress like an adult.”When she had said something to Neo about it, he simply laughed.

With a hand at her lower back, they walked down the stairs and then over to the small gate leading to the pool area.Helen walked down the short staircase and she gave them both a quick hug. “I’m proud of you both.” “Thanks, mo

However, at the end of the session, she was always exhausted.Moving stiff muscles to recover from trauma was difficult. Being reminded of the trauma made it worse. Add in the fact that this happened at the hands of a man who she thought loved her, and it became even harder.And today was her first anniversary.This morning she made her first entry into her journal that Jolene had given her. It was a short entry with only a few sentences. A year ago today, I married my husband, my world, the man that I loved.

For special occasions she would wear a dress. Usually, a long sundress and flip flops. But not for tonight’s date. Tonight, she wore a dress.JD stood in the kitchen watching her walk down the hall towards him. His mouth was dry, his eyes wide and his dick was reminding him how long it had been since he’d been with a girl. Around the time that Ty got hurt in October. Shelly. The blonde had a thing for the swim team. She was the reason why Craig’s girlfriend did not trust him.And with good reason. Kimberly was a good girl, Shelly was not. And Craig had no self-control over his dick.Craig and his women trouble was the farthest thing from his mind. His mind was on the young woman walking towards him. She wore a dark pink dress that was skintight and showed off her curves. It was shorter than wha

It took a moment and then she looked up at him. “If you would have said something, we could have made different arrangements.”“But he goes to the Navy in July.” She sighed and laid her head on his shoulder. “Do we need to move to the big house?”Helen looked at him with confused shock. “Wh-what?”“It’s twenty feet. If we need to move twenty feet, we can.” He gently caressed her cheek.“You say it like that, it doesn’t seem that far.” She settled back into his side and wrapped her arm around him.“It’s not. You think I would let Dean stay over there by hersel

To be trusted is a greater compliment than being loved. – George MacDonaldReese had worked late at Dean’s List last night and had gone back to bed after having breakfast with Helen. Yesterday had been the last day of classes at the local college and the bar in the old university library was packed. Now, at ten thirty in the morning, he was making himself a cup of coffee. As the single serve maker brewed him a cup, he scrolled through messages on his phone.The water slowed to a trickle before stopping completely. Pocketing his phone, he threw away the pod and grabbed his cup. Walking down the hall, he paused only briefly when he realized that his office door wasn’t completely closed like usual.He didn’t expect Helen or either of the kids to be participating in corporate espionage. In fact, the thought made him chuckle. Sipping his coffee, he sat behind the desk and discovered why Helen had been a little nervous this morning.In the center of his desk sat the leather-bound red folder

As if he could sense her nervousness, he kissed the top of her head.“We’re not going to play in the playroom tonight.” He whispered.“Then what…?” she asked as they entered the room and he shut the door behind them, securing the lock.Grinning at her, he leaned down and kissed her. “We’re going to take a shower.”“There’s a shower in our bathroom.” She pointed out as they walked to the bathroom.“Not like this one.” He said huskily as he flipped on the lights inside the bathroom and closed the door. Using the digital control panel, he set the lights down low and turned on some music playing lightly in the background.“Come here, Kitten.” Reese ordered softly.Nervously, she stepped up to him. “Yes, Sir?” she asked looking up at him.“First, when we play, you will never look at me in the eyes unl
