Aiden and Katherine watched as Taryn and Dustin flirted with each other shamelessly. “Would I be too forward if I ask for your company for the rest of the evening?” Dustin asked ten minutes later as they were exiting the building. “I thought you would never ask,” Taryn grinned. Kat was now looking at her friend with wide eyes. She really hoped Taryn wasn't planning on spending the night with Dustin. They just met for crying out loud. Kat knew Tee was a person who didn't give a damn. Taryn would always say having sex now and having sex later is the same sex. Katherine never judged her best friend, and she loved her for who she was, but this could have serious repercussions for her and Aiden if this little fling goes south for Dustin and Taryn. “Would you two give me a minute with my best friend?” Kat asked the two men. “Sure,” Dustin said, while Aiden nodded and smiled. Kat pulled Taryn to the side and asked, “Are you thinking about spending the night with Dustin?” “
The sexual static was in great abundance as it circulated through the car as Aiden drove to his destination. The two chit-chatted, admiring the scenery as the moon glowed bright and the stars cast a brilliant twinkle in the dark sky. “We're here," Aiden said as he turned off the main road and onto a smooth track that later led down a stone driveway. At the end of the path stood a beautiful building that looked like an inn or bed-and-breakfast. There was a small water fountain with flowers all around that made a roundabout in the middle of the courtyard. Aiden kept driving until they were at the side of the building. Katherine could see a large gazebo that led out to a lake. The car stopped and Aiden took Katherine's hand and kissed it. It was obvious that physical touch was Aiden's love language. He then exited the vehicle and went to open Katherine's door. He helped her out of the car and watched as her face lit up with awe as she admired the place. “Wow! This place is amazing.”
Katherine’s breath was stuck in her throat when Aiden told her it was her turn. A minute ago, this seemed like a good idea. She aimed to be bold and brave, but staring at the sculpted beast of a man before her, her confidence was running thinner and thinner by the second. There was no way she could strip naked in front of Aiden. It had been several years since a man had seen her naked, well, apart from her gynaecologist and Dr. Mosley didn't count. He had a beer belly and a smoker's cough so he wasn't one to cast shame on anyone. But what would Aiden do if he saw her stretch marks? Would he laugh? Would he mock her? Or worse, would he not want her?“Come on, Katherine, be brave!” Aiden shouted. Katherine hugged her tummy and shook her head from side to side. “I can't do this,” she said. “Can't or won't?” Aiden asked. “I know you want to, but something changed like a few seconds ago. What is it? You can tell me,” Aiden stood there folding his arms at his chest without a care in the
YES! YES! YES! The answer screamed inside Katherine's head the moment Aiden popped the question. Well, it wasn't 'THE' question, but it was still a big one. Aiden just asked her to be his girlfriend. But was she ready to be someone else's? All these years she was known as a single mother, Mrs. O'Hare, a widow; Nile's Widow to be exact. But was she ready to be Aiden Windsor's girlfriend? What does being someone's girlfriend entail? She was out of the game for so long she didn't have the first clue what to do. Her eyes finally refocused on Aiden, who seemed to be turning blue while he was still propped on one knee. His face was flushed and had sweat all over it. He was so handsome, she thought to herself as she admired him. She was certain she had feelings for him, plus she definitely enjoyed spending time with him. Wasn't spending time with someone a part of being someone's partner? She realized she was already performing girlfriend duties. The only thing was, they hadn't done
The tension between Kat's leg started to feel unbearable as she watched Aiden licked her juice from his fingers. She got the urge to close her legs as tightly as she could, but Aiden's hands prohibited her from doing so, as he placed it between her legs again. This time, he lightly ran it up and down her thigh, which sent tiny ripples through Kat's entire body. “Don't close them,” Aiden demanded in a raspy voice as he continued to caress her thigh. Katherine leaned in and claimed his lips in a ravenous kiss. Aiden pulled away and looked into her eyes. “What do you want, Kat?” Aiden asked as his fingers teased her clit once more. She bucked closer to him. “You Aiden, I want you,” she practically moaned. Aiden used his free hand to pull her legs apart, and then, in one smooth motion, his tongue joined his fingers. Katherine began to moan in ecstasy as Aiden's fingers and tongue strum her sensitive bundle of nerve like a guitar. She ran her hands through his silky black
For the rest of the day, Taryn kept pestering Kat about the details of the evening before. She told her she will give her the juicy info after work. The bakery was extremely busy, since it was the Christmas season.They got a twenty minute break to use the restroom and have a little lunch, so they headed to Katherine's office. Kat was grateful to have her best friend by her side, and she made sure to tell her. "I'm really appreciative to have you by my side every step of the way," "That's what friends are for.”"You're more like a sister to me, Tar, and I love you," Kat confessed as she gave her best friend a hug. "Don't get all mushy on me. You know I'm not the sentimental type.”"I don't care," Kat hugged her tighter. "Alright, alright, I love you too. Now give me that protein bar," Taryn ordered, pointing to the power bar on Kat's desk. She handed it to her, and she wolfed it down in seconds. Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door. It was Lucy. "Come in, Lucy," Kat s
It was around 11 am when the twins and their grandpa came back from their stroll. They raved about how fun it was because their grandpa took them ice-skating for the first time. They even saw people caroling on their way back. Katherine was thrilled that they had fun. After Nola was finished telling the story of how many times Nate fell before he got the hang of skating, Katherine instructed them to go take their baths before dinner was ready. The kids went up the stairs and did as they were told. Katherine and the others were still inside the kitchen, working on dinner. Her mom and Taryn were basting the ham while she was finishing up her famous sorrel rum punch. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. "I'll get it," Mrs. Riley said as she wiped her hands on a dish rag. She then went to see who was at the door. "Does Aiden eat ham?" Taryn asked as she walked up to Kat, who was placing the rum punch in the refrigerator. "Umm, yeah, yes he does," she replied with a nod. "Okay, but n
"I really wish you two weren't sick," Katherine said sadly as she examined the thermometer that she took from Nola's mouth. The twins both had a slight fever, and they were complaining about having sore throats. Since it was winter, Katherine knew the kids would likely catch a cold, but why did they have to get sick when they were supposed to spend New Year's weekend at Aiden's cabin? "It's okay mom, people get sick all the time," Nate stated. "I know, but, I will have to cancel our trip with Aiden, since you're both not well," Katherine sighed. Her children were sick so of course she couldn't leave them. "No, no, no!" gave out Nate. "Mom we'll be fine. You should go.""Mom you cannot cancel, because of us." Nola inferred. "Plus we really wanted to come to Aiden's cabin, so you have to go so you can show us pictures and tell us all about it.""Oh my little munchkins. I can't go without you two. It's New Year's weekend and who better should I ring in the New Year with than the two l
