Happy, drunk, and cold New Yorkers walked the sidewalk. People blew their vehicle horns in celebration. Christopher and Selena walked two blocks in silence as the winter cold sobered Selena up. Snowflakes started to fall when Christopher tapped on the driver’s side window of the limo.

Two weeks before the wedding . . . Selena had moved most of her clothes to the mansion. Since Christopher had suggested she move into the mansion full time, she had compromised and started spending the night there three to four nights a week.

Selena tilted her head up to him as his thumb caressed the edge of her chin. She started breathing heavy under the gaze of his heavy lids. Christopher laid his lips on hers. He gently massaged them. Selena opened for him. Taking the invitation, he dipped inside. His tongue slowly explored her mouth as he untied her robe. Selena reached out, placing her hands on his abdomen. Christopher slowly retreated his warmth as she undid the sash in his robe. Selena moaned against him as she felt his muscles. Her hands slid up his bare chest as they began to lap at each other lips. A low rumble came from him as his hand slid from her neck all the down to her breast. She gasped against his mouth as he squeezed her C-cup. Christopher broke the kiss and grabbed her waist. He pulled at h

Christopher was gracious enough to pay for two rooms there; one for Selena and the other for Bill, Elle, and Susan. Selena had moved out of her apartment two days ago. Christopher had tried to get her to stay at the mansion the night before the wedding, but she wouldn’t because she didn’t want to risk them bumping into each other before the wedding.Christopher and Selena walked slowly to the Hudson limo where Bruce and Trevor were waiting.

Selena had never received so many gifts at one time. She had gotten so much lingerie that she could open her own boutique. They had also played a drinking game that had almost all of them two sheets in the wind. Joanna was the only one still sober. She had opted out of the game. The girls started telling bad date stories. Selena excused herself to use the bathroom. She walked to the bedroom and used the bathroom adjacent to it. When she walked out, she sat on the edge of the queen size bed. She thought about tomorrow and then her mind drifted to after tomorrow.

Christopher had guided the girls who were all over him to a few of his old frat buddies and retreated to the other side of the room and took a seat. As everyone drank and flirted with the girls, Mel approached Christopher with two glasses. One was tall and full of clear liquid and ice. The other glass was shorter with brown liquid. “It’s ice water. You need to stay hydrated. We don’t want you waking up with a throbbing headache and cotton mouth in the morning. Your fiancé wouldn’t be happy with that,” Mel slurred and offered the tall glass to Christopher. He took it. “Thanks.” Mel sat down on a stool that matched the armchair Christopher sat in.

Christopher looked around the room.Riley and Allen were dead asleep in armchairs with their flies open and their shoes off. The rest of his frat brothers were gone.

Dr. Jonathan Kilmer had met them in the parking lot ten minutes after they got there. “You guys were lucky I had gotten out of surgery an hour ahead of schedule,” Kilmer said as he climbed into the back of the limo. “Mr. Christopher Hudson, I presume,” He said as he hovered over Christopher. They had never formally met. “Yeah. I would shake your hand, but you know,” Christopher stated with a deep frown. “Yes.
