“You look gorgeous my dear.” Sebastian says with a twinkle in his eyes as he looks me up and down.Licking his lips like a wolf thinking of eating his prey, he begins to pace when Lisa takes too long to get ready.“We need to get this show on the road.” He states when he looks up from his watch with a furrowed brow.He doesn’t like waiting around and certainly not because Lisa can’t decide which dress to wear.  I am just glad that we can wear the same size dresses.  She didn’t bring anything appropriate for a club with her and I didn’t think to tell her to bring anything either.  My bad, I knew that I should have told her that we would probably go at some point in time. When Lisa walks out of the closet, Sebastian and I glance at each other in shock.  She is more beautiful than I have ever seen her before.  I guess that baby blue, skintight thigh high little thing, does her jus

“Don’t touch!” He yells at me and then swats my hand away when I try to cheat and see what’s in the package.“You just can’t leave it alone, can you?” I watch him hide the box behind his back while grinning in my face intentionally.“Come on.  You left it set there all day.  Now that I want to open it, you are trying to hide it from me?” I can’t help but to play along, especially when he is being so cute. That man of mine left me a present sitting on top of the counter all morning.  When I went to go over and inspect it further, he swats me.  He swats me of all things.  “Can you imagine that?” I murmur under my breath when as I roll my eyes.“Hm?” He asks with his brows furrowed and his hands now behind his back. He is holding the one thing that I want more than anything right now.  “Ugh.  You are impossible!&rdqu

Disguising my trip to the doctors as a girl’s day out with Lisa and Skye, I head out to my first appointment in hopes of finding out if I am pregnant or not.  Of course, Sebastian doesn’t question me one way or the other, he just rolls his eyes and goes back to reading in his den when I tell him about my plans.  “By the way, I already have plans for today.”“Alright.  I will be sitting here reading when you return.” He hesitates and then says softer now, “By the way, don’t forget to pick up some mints in case you start to get queasy again.  My mom used to swear by them whenever I had a stomachache.”Smiling, I head on out and drive to the doctor’s office.  As it turns out, it is on the far end of town.  That I didn’t know until I was almost late. Rushing into the office, I was quickly seated in a room and then the doctor walks in.  “Hello.” She

Hearing the music of my favorite song, I glance over to Sebastian who takes my hand and then we begin to dance.  The moment everyone sees us, they walk off the floor and watch us in admiration. The two of us circle around, like we have been dancing together for years hand in hand.  Matter of fact, the way we dance reminds me of two well oiled gears that fit perfectly in place and always move in time.  If one gets gummed up or the timing is off, the whole machine stops working. I learned this a long time ago when my mom used to work at a clock shop.  One day when I was very young, she had me into the shop.  As she did her job, she taught me a think or two about gears and how they had to be well lubricated to function well. “Baby, you seem in a far-off place.” He says to me and brings me back to the present.“Oh, nothing.  I was just remembering my mom when I was little, used to take me to the shop with h

It has been 10 months since my baby girl Brianna was born.  Her sweet smile lights every day, and her voice is the most heavenly thing I have ever heard.  Her cheeks are always rosy and her eyes grey like steel.  One day she will fetch the eye of a handsome stranger like I once did, and he will fall head over heals in love with her.Till then, she is mine to cherish, love and protect.  Of course, with the help of Sebastian her ever protective dad.  He is always rescuing her from whatever trouble she finds herself in.  Trust me it usually is plenty and sometimes he even has a hand in it.  Laughing, I find that I can’t stop as I watch them playing in the rose garden and wrestling. He is so sweet with her and the perfect daddy a girl could ever ask for or hope to have.  As I watch them, a lone tear frees itself from the corner of my eye when I remember that I almost died that day.  If I had, I would have never been
