Chapter 41
At the church, Christopher didn’t think Selena could look more beautiful - until she reappeared by his side to walk into the ballroom at the Hudson Estate. Selena had changed into a satin formfitting white dress with a slit all the way up her thigh. The bodice of her dress was pulled back like a corset showing a respectable, yet tantalizing amount of cleavage. Her shoulders and arms were bare for him to admire. She had removed her veil letting her hairstyle show more clearly.
“Wow,” he blurted out as she approached him.
Selena bashfully glanced down. “I take it you like my reception dress.”
“I like it a lot, but I liked the other one, too,” he assured her. &

Christopher and Trevor stood in the ballroom talking as the party continued. Christopher was thinking Selena and Megan had done too good of a job with the reception. It was almost ten o’clock and he hadn’t seen one guest leave. The reception had officially started at six. Christopher’s eyes widened when he saw one of the bartenders bend over and pull out two bottles of champagne. He was heading to the champagne faucet, as Christopher called it. He leaned towards his brother. “When in the hell is this going to end? Or are all these people planning to stay all night and drink everything we got in the house?” Trevor laughed. “Maybe they are having their homes fumigated and can’t leave yet,” he jested.&

“Excuse me, Hasnet,” Christopher said as he approached them. “May I cut in to dance with my wife?” Selena had no idea Christopher was so protective until tonight. She found it sweet that he wanted to make sure she wasn’t overwhelmed with meeting new people. “Of course,” Hasnet said as his white teeth appeared below his dark thick mustache. “And blessings to you both. May you have many babies,” he said with a curt nod. Selena resisted the instant frown that wanted to show. Babies? Having children was the last thing on her mind. “Uh, thank you,” Chr

Selena sat back on a host of pillows in bed. She nibbled on a chocolate covered strawberry as she held a glass of champagne in her hand. Joanna had moved the strawberries and champagne bucket to the nightstand so if Selena wanted more she didn’t have to get up. “Is it too much to ask for you to dim the lights before you leave?” Selena asked with her mouth full. She was going to stay up for another fifteen minutes just in case Christopher was able to get away, but if not she was going to go to sleep. “Not at all, honey,” Joanna said as she walked to the wall. She turned the knob next to the light switch, dimming the bright bulbs to a light hue. “Is that too

Christopher knew why she had gotten up. She had inserted a diaphragm. He had felt the rim of it twice. He thought about going back to his room because he didn’t want to hover, to make her feel smothered or uncomfortable. After all, he just ravaged her like a wild animal. Christopher couldn’t help it once he was inside of her. He hadn’t slept with a woman since he had gotten engaged to her and on top of that he had been desiring her for months. Pent up sexual aggression he didn’t know he had flooded out of him and he couldn’t stop it. Yet, it didn’t seem like she minded. If anything, Selena had enjoyed the hell out it. He raised his head when he heard the bathroom door open. She walked out wearing a white cotton robe. “Are you okay

Three weeks later . . . After opening all the wedding gifts and writing thank you cards, Selena really didn’t have anything to do. A few days after Selena had married Christopher, The Hudson Group exploded with inquiries or hiccups. The guys were at work all day and sometimes half the evening.Christopher had made an effort to be home for dinner at least twice a week, but he would have to get on the phone right after. Christopher had been so busy that they had only made love twice after their wedding night. One night, he had boldly walked into her room with nothing, but a hard-on. The second time, Selena had gone to his room wearing a short black nightie covered by a black robe. He hadn’t been in there. Selena had figured he was still working. She had gone to the study, looking for him. He had been wor

Christopher had ended up staying in North Carolina for a few days. He had arrived home Saturday around five p.m. Bruce had come home two hours ahead of him on a commercial flight. During cocktails, Bruce ranted about the London deal, but he had pulled it. But, everyone let him go on so he could get the frustration off his chest. Christopher told them that they had caught the person who had made and planted the bomb. The guy was an engineer who worked for a local company. He was part of the religious group who had protested outside of the site. However, the man had acted alone without the group’s knowledge. As a future precaution, Christopher gave the foreman permission to hire a security guard to patrol and watch the site at night until construction was completed. Trevor caught Christopher and Bruce up to speed concerning the New Jersey project.

After dinner, Christopher and Bruce went upstairs. They were exhausted, especially Bruce. He was suffering from jetlag. Trevor and Selena went to the den and drank gin and tonics as they watched a movie. Then they watched the news. They didn’t head upstairs until a quarter till midnight. They said goodnight to each other as they went their separate ways at the end of the hallway. Selena went to her room. She was going to throw on an old comfy cotton nightshirt with little bears on it and then changed her mind. She was a little tipsy and horny from the gin and tonics. The first time she had gone to his room wanting affection he had rebuffed her like a drug addict offering to get him off for money. But, lately he had been treating her with more regard. He no longer sa

Five weeks later . . . Selena couldn’t have been happier. During the past few weeks, she had acquired her dream job, which was going great so far, she had made a few new friends through her new job, her volunteer work at the soup kitchen allowed her to cook which she didn’t get to do at the mansion, and her and Christopher were getting along better than she had ever hoped. Once she had moved into his room five weeks ago, they had made love almost every night and they talked more. It seemed like every week Christopher would tell her a story from his childhood. Some of his stories triggered memories from her past and she shared them with him in return. As she walked
