Not much anyway.”I moved a step closer. “What would you like to have?”I was lost in her eyes. “Little girls are nice,” she ventured. “I like to knit and crochet and quilt.

Michael POV:As I walked into the jewelry store, my heart was pounding with excitement and nerves. I was met with the sparkling sight of diamond rings on display, each one more dazzling than the last.I realized i was making Aurora settle for the bare minimum and felt pissed with myself, she didn't even receive a romantic and beautiful Proposal like every woman dreams of.

A Secretary's Vendetta "That's New"
Aurora POV:He’d promised lunch, but I could tell that the discussion about Lucy was wounding him. I only smiled. “I’ll look forward to it,” i said. “Drive carefully.”He nodded absently, turned, and went to his car. He didn’t look back as he drove away.I hesitated before i went back into the house. I wasn’t really worried. He wasn’t lying about their physical compatibility, and he did seem to want our child.

A Secretary's Vendetta "Let's Hope They Take Bribes"
Michael POV:I had gone home in a black mood. Mee and Yow curled up beside me in bed that night and purred while I brooded. I couldn’t get that last vision of Lucy out of my mind, lying so still and beautiful in her white coffin. All the long years, he’d wondered if i could have saved her if i'd managed to convince her not to go to the party instead of agreeing to go. I agreed to go to the party with her. She’d asked him to, and he’d wanted to go. Then I'd watch her die. I'd gone around in a daze for weeks afterward. He hadn’t been able to think, much less work. I wanted to punish myself for it and i did punish myself for it. My reserve unit, like Cag Hart’s, had been called up in 1991 when Operation Desert Storm sent soldiers to Kuwait to liberate it from invasion. He’d volunteered without a second thought, not at all concerned that he might die.He’d waded right in with his company, in the thick of the fighting, a captain in a forward unit. During a memorable firefight, i’d propell

Come on, girls,” he called to them, leading me through the living room and into the spacious kitchen. “I’ll get their bowls.”He pulled them out of the dishwasher and settled them on the counter. Violet opened the brown package and split the salmon down the middle. The cats were all but climbing the cabinet.“Here you go, babies,” I said softly, and put the fish down.They both glanced at me with big
