Cody

We are being slammed on the ice here and it’s a tough game. Coach has given us our pep talk during the recess and boy was he not happy. He told us we were playing like pansies, seriously? Is he for real? We’re killing our balls here, sweat is dropping of all of us and we are exhausted.

“Hawk, Man I need you more defensive, they’re coming at us like canon balls, we’re fodder to them. Let’s get a bit more with the programme. What’s going on with you today?” I ask him. He shrugs. “Don’t give me a fucking shrug I need confidence; something is going on care to share it?”

Atlas sits on the bench next to me and shakes his head. “Yeah, c’mon Hawk your game is off today, we’re sucking and we’ve the ability to paste these guys. I’m not getting it.”

Hawk blows out. “Darla has left me, said something about needing some space.” Fuck, that sucks. Darla has been his girlfriend from what I understand for the last six years. Not just his girlfriend they are engaged.

    ImogenIt’s so late and really, I ought to go to sleep but after watching the game on my small television in the apartment and getting into bed, I started reading and once I am stuck in an Elsie Silver book, well that’s it I am hooked and that old adage comes into play, just one last chapter before bed. Only, in my case it was right until the end of the book and since I had only started it the other night, of course I finished it and now it’s already nearly midnight.I hear something from downstairs, Kitten’s head comes up and his ears prick up. What the hell is it? Surely not an intruder, this is a safe place we don’t have a high crime rate and why would anyone want to break into my restaurant? Cash I am guessing. My heart races and pounds in my chest, I place a hand over it to try to settle it down, but I am scared as anything, my mouth is dry. Kitten stirs and jumps off the bed.My first instinct is to grab him, if someone has broken in, they won’t care about a tiny black fluffball

    CodyWaking up with Imogen fast asleep snoring lightly in my arms is one of the best feelings in the world, aside from making love with her and watching her as she goes about her day. I love the way she is emphatic with her hands, the way she fusses over Kitten and how she is a natural woman with no airs and graces, no pretence and no hidden agenda.I look down at her beautiful, serene face as she blows little sleep bubbles, her hair scattered across my shoulders and Kitten with his head on her other shoulder. It’s so fucking adorable that I wish I could capture this moment forever and never let it go. Alas, this morning is the scan morning and we both have to face Luna. Maybe I should let her know that Imogen is coming with me to avoid any outbursts at the hospital. Why couldn’t things just be a whole lot simpler?Imogen stirs and as much as I’d like to wake her up some more with my morning wood, I don’t. She needs rest. We were up last night most of the night and it was already late

    ImogenAm I little bit jealous of how Luna looks, all radiant and pregnant with her the smallish bump and swell of her stomach not to mention that tucked safely inside her is a beating heart, that of Cody Brannigan’s child? I am swallowing my mild jealousy down, but it does sting, I want that to me carrying his child. He squeezes my hand as if he can read my mind. I suppose at least Luna relented from her initial frosty stance and has been civil. It’s almost as if she has had a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree turnaround from the woman that was screaming and shouting outside my restaurant not that long ago.I smile up at Cody. The lady ushers us into the room and Luna hops herself up on the bed. Cody offers to help her. “I’m good, honestly I am only pregnant.” She tells him but there is no malice or offence in her voice.“Okay.” He sits down on the plastic chair next to the bed then stands and goes off outside. I wonder where the hell he is going, and Luna looks at me and shrugs her sho

    CodyOur evening was heady, we stayed awake until around midnight and then fell asleep in each other’s arms. It feels surreal to know that the baby growing inside Luna will be born in a few short months. I don’t think I will ever be ready. Immi seems more ready than I do and she’s not even the parent. I admire her for being so gracious and taking not just me on but a baby too and going full throttle into a new place in Austin. The woman is superwoman I kid you not, all her energy and focus turn me on, she’s smart, funny, gorgeous and kind-hearted, there will never be another woman for me.“I like this one, what do you think?” She is standing next to a large Norway spruce tree in Dixon’s tree lot excited as a kid in a candy store who has been let loose. This is going to be our first Christmas together and whatever she wants she will have. Her face is radiant as she smiles, the air is cooler today and Immi has adorable red cheeks, and the tip of her nose is getting red. I kiss her butto

    ImogenChoosing trees with Cody was the best, it feels like Christmas now and Lukov and I are trying to set up the tree for the restaurant. By the time Cody and I had purchased the decorations and gone back for a bite to eat to his Lake House there wasn’t much time left and he had to leave with his driver for the airport. Of course, I feel sad in my heart but it’s only another week and he will be home for the holidays.Honestly, I cannot believe how fast this part of the year is going, it’s like wildfire.“I think you need to move it slightly to the right.” I tell Lukov.“Are you sure, it looks straight to me?” He frowns and places his hands on his slender hips. I take a step back and view the tree in the green, metal base that it sits in.“Okay, you might be right.”“Thank God for that, this tree malarky is driving me nuts and we’ve only just started.” He wipes his brow, moving around a large tree isn’t an easy feat but he has done well, and I appreciate all his help, I’d have had to

    CodyBeing slammed and punched in the head isn’t fun on the ice, this game is proving to be brutal and to be honest, I am ready to take out the defence guy who has just landed another punch to me. Atlas skates over, the ref skates over and Hawk is by my side trying to break it up.“C’mon man you don’t need this shit. Let it go. Think of Immi.” Atlas tells me.“Yeah, Bro, think of Immi. And you don’t want to be in the sinbin do you?” Hawk has an arm around mine which is in full punch mode.“Go fuck your mother.” I yell at the asshole who has cornered me, the puck was mine, it was mine for the taking and it would have been a good shot. Sometimes, it can pretty mean and nasty on the ice like today. The guys we’re playing are total fuckers.I huff and growl then allow Hawk to lower my arm. “Break it up or you are both off.” The referee finally says when he skates over and where was he the last few minutes. I swear I almost had my jaw broken. A night in a hospital would seriously have piss

    ImogenIt has been just over twenty-four hours since I bought the pregnancy tests, and still I haven’t done one. I am too scared, it would mean a massive change for both Cody and I, especially with his and Luna’s baby on the way. Lukov keeps asking if I am okay and I have told him, I think I’m just under way too much stress right now. He did ask if maybe I should reconsider opening up in Austin. To be honest, that will all go by the wayside if my test proves that I am pregnant. God, I feel sick not just the nausea but also the worrying about it. I think subconsciously I am waiting for Cody to be back home before I do the test. It’s not something I want to do by hiding it from him.In a couple of hours, he will be at the Lake House. The plan is that I will go and meet him there with Kitten. Lukov and I have decorated the restaurant tree and he has helped me decorate with the waiting staff the restaurant. It’s as pretty as a picture, honestly like stepping into a winter wonderland.“Hey,

    Cody“Hey pretty lady where’s your mind at?” We’re sitting in my over-sized tub in the large square bathroom with floor to ceiling windows that overlook the lake. It’s serene this evening and with a full moon, it looks as pretty as a picture. But there is something on Immi’s mind. I know my girl; she seems kind of distant.I am enjoying her leaning against me, her soft, warm skin in contact with my chest, my arms wrapped around her waist, just below her beautiful breasts that are making my cock want to grow, only since I can tell there is something not right, I keep myself in check. Not easy I can assure you with a woman like Immi sitting practically on my lap.Her hands play with the bubbles, she blows them and makes even bigger bubbles, I was never able to do that, even though my mom used to try showing me when she did the dishes, as I was growing up.“Er, I need to tell you something and promise you won’t get mad.” Her voice is timid, now she’s plain old scaring me. My heart skips

    Bonus Epilogue – CodyI watch Immi holding our baby boy, who we called Miles, he’s just three months old and Immi is a natural mother. My heart swells watching her holding him in her arms whilst her mother fusses around her.Her father slaps me on the back, “you did us proud, Cody. I couldn’t wish for a better man for my grandbaby and little Summer. That girl is a firecracker, she’s got you eating out of the palm of her hand.”“Don’t I know it, Sir. My boy will be the same.” We chuckle as we watch my Minnesota team enjoy a few colds ones on the grass that leads down to the lake out back of my Lake home. Immi and I are back now, we’ve come full circle from the first moment she came back into my life to be my nutironist and the sparring of words that took place back then.Who’d have thought that in just two years I’d be married to my gorgeous wife, have a baby girl who totters around everywhere and is obsessed with her baby brother and a baby boy. We plan on going for six kids, hell I’d

    Imogen – EpilogueLife has been wonderful to us; our wedding was a dream with all our friends and family around us and the entire hockey teams for Minnesota and for Austin. Of course, as Cody is such a big name, we had to have one of the top celebrity magazine photographers attending and the exclusive pictures in the magazine were amazing. My mom’s cake she made for us was something out of a movie, five tiers, with one chocolate and one vanilla sponge alternating to the top, frosted in a delicate cream frosting with an iced arch at the top, she even made tiny flowers to match the wedding flowers to decorate it. I’m telling you, my mother is a baking wonder.It's been a year since our wedding and I am the happiest I have ever been. Little Summer is crawling and sort of walking, I swear I need eyes in the back of my head. Her blonde curls are to die for and those big blue eyes of hers, well she is a daddy’s girl and the way that Cody is with her, it makes my heart melt. He is the best d

    Cody – December 21st “You look worried, Man you need to chill out. She’s going to be here.” I take a look at Atlas in his striped, grey charcoal pants, his matching waistcoat, the button down white shirt and the cream cravat. We’re matching today, it seems surreal we match on the ice and now we match as I stand in the bedroom of my Lake House nervous as hell, about to go out the back and take my place to wait for my beautiful bride to come down the aisle on her daddy’s arm. I exhale.“I am chilled out, but what if I let her down? What if I’m not the husband she wants to spend the rest of her life with? What if she thinks she wants to fly?” He pats me on the shoulder.“Listen to me, Bro. I like that now we’re going to be proper bro’s no getting away from me now. She loves you, Immi is besotted with you, that girl knows her own mind and if she didn’t think you were right for her, she’d have off-skied a long fucking time ago. So, now stop. This is your day as much as it is hers and you n

    ImogenSummer is a dream, honestly you couldn’t ask for a happier baby, she hardly cries and always holds out her chubby little hands when she sees me, and don’t even get me started on when she sees her daddy. Oh, my it makes my ovaries ache something crazy and I literally cannot wait the next two months for our wedding.Where has the time gone? It’s literally insane. Where to start, first Cody did bring the Stanley Cup home for Austin during the event in June. He is now officially a legend, the crowds went absolutely nuts for him and the team, we have been inundated with so much press and media attention that sometimes it feels stifling, but I have to accept it because being married to the man who won both years in a row for his teams with hattricks in both games, is going to be a major thing. He could happily hang his skates now if he wanted to. He has achieved all the dreams he ever had as a child in his ice hockey career. Although, I have to admit, I would miss going to the games w

    CodyWatching Luna giving birth was surreal, she didn’t make a fuss or create and scream the hospital down, she took it all in her stride, showing her strength and dignity. Seeing the crown of my baby girl’s head brought tears to my eyes.We’re all in the private room and Luna holds our baby in her arms, swaddled in a pale pink blanket, Immi and I have both held her and oh my, I can’t begin to tell you the way I feel. My heart expanded and fluttered like crazy, the love that I feel for this tiny little girl is unbelievable and the way I want to protect her and keep her safe, Man it’s blowing my mind.“So beautiful, Luna.” Immi says her smile wide on her face, her eyes shining like diamonds. “I think she has Cody’s cute nose,” she touches the baby’s face, yes, we still need to name her.“Cody, can you take her, then settle her down, I’m pretty exhausted and will nap.”“Absolutely,” I extend my arms to take our baby girl. “Come here Princess my daddy’s little girl.” Immi giggles and I ca

    Imogen – five months later“I’m coming hold on.” I shout to Cody as he calls me from the front door. We’re due to go riding this morning but we’re both on edge kind of as it has already gone past Luna’s due date by a week. She is totally fed up and just wants the baby to drop. NOW.I rush to step into my riding boots, Ben is coming with us - he has become a real fixture of our bizarre family set up. And the best thing is that he has gotten closer to Luna. How amazing is that since Ben would often keep Luna company on her cabin porch when Cody and I were travelling to his ice hockey games.Fallon has been a dream constantly popping over to see us and also Luna, to be honest I think she has found a friend in Luna too. They’re both in the same position with pregnancies and Fallon stopped travelling to the away games with Atlas about three months ago.Life can be weird at times but in a good way. The one person who caused so much heartache for Cody and I, is now a firm friend and not just

    CodyHer pussy feels wet as I glide my fingers over the lace of her panties, Imogen is so damn beautiful it can bring me to my knees. “I missed you darlin’,” I tell her as I kiss her neck making her tingle and squirm, I know it’s a feeling of delight and tickling as she giggles at my touch.“You were only gone during today, Brannigan,” she giggles as I nip at her neck, whilst continuing to stroke through her soaking panties.“A second is too long to be away from you, I swear Immi you do something to me that makes me want to be glued to your side. It’s a job to take myself away from you.”“You’re such a smooth talker, Brannigan. I feel the same way.” I know she does, whenever we get the opportunity on my away games that she doesn’t travel with me, we make sure to call each other it seems like every few hours around the games and photoshoots, signing autographs, sponsor meetings and the such like. And when I am at practice hell, we still talk regularly in the day. I feel like I cannot b

    Imogen – One Month LaterTime has gone by so quickly, and yes Cody did go on to play with a broken jaw in New York. I went with him and held my breath the entire game, least ways that is how it felt. One more injury and he could have been off the ice for a while. He’s a stubborn old mule is what he is, but they won and he went on to score a hat trick, for those of you who don’t know what that is, it’s when a player scored three goals in a single game. Of course Cody was over the moon, the crowd went nuts even the New York fans.So, where else have we travelled? Let’s see we played a couple of home games, we went to Winnipeg which was fun and I got to do some sightseeing and his folks came too. We are bonding much more and I am loving how much they care about me. His ma even made me a beautiful sweater even though we are heading into Spring, it’s a soft blush pink mohair with daisies. She is so clever, the last time I tried knitting it was a total disaster and I ended up having to ask

    CodyWhat the fuck, did I pass out or something? I’m in a room with hooks up to me and darkness filtering through some lemon shade blinds, Immi is sitting by my bed holding my hands and tears on her face. “Hey darlin’,” I manage feeling like I have been run over by a truck or something, I ache in my ribs, my pelvis and my face is fucking sore.“Cody, baby. Are you in pain?”“Some it’s not so bad. What the hell happened?“You were taken down on the ice. They say you have a bad concussion and a broken nose, and your jaw is fractured.”“Hey, don’t cry it could have been a whole lot worse. Least ways I can still play.”“No way, Brannigan.” Just as she says that a man in his fifties or so comes in with dark hair, splattering of grey at the temples and kind green eyes, not dark or emerald just plain green like leaves in the spring.“Good to see you awake, Brannigan. You took several shots to the head. Your jaw is fractured, I am guessing this lady has already told you that. We assessed your
