can
find time to catch up with me, I am only over for a few weeks,
as I have more loose ends to tie up over here in the states that
require my full presence I am afraid. If you have the time
maybe you could you look over some legal papers for me?”
“Nonsense, Wilhelm, drop by anytime. I have four weeks
holiday to take and Margret insists I take them, we’ve both made
no plans to travel this year as the children are joining us here in
Cumbria.”
“Super, I’ll give you a call beforehand. Send my best wishes to
Margret my friend.”
Wilhelm put down the receiver and realised Felicity was behind
him with her warm hands slipping under his shirt to stroke his
chest, he felt instantly aroused forgetting all his worries and
loosing himself in the moment, he led her to her bedroom and
made passionate love to her over and over until he fell into a
deep sleep unaware there was already a seed growing in
Felicity’s womb.
Felicity laid there fully awake unable to sleep, seething with
jealousy regarding Wilhelm’s wife and children, she hated them,
the fact that they could take Wilhelm away from her and leave
her all alone at Christmas was devastating. She informed the
Madame and much to her surprise the Madame invited Felicity
over for Christmas, she was hosting a huge dinner party with
many rich young and old bachelors. Felicity couldn’t refuse the
Madame as she was the only living relative alive in whom she
could visit. Christmas was especially difficult for Felicity as she
had no family she could share it with. A close colleague who
she had befriended at work invited her over for Christmas dinner
with her husband and children, she politely declined in the hope
Wilhelm would change his mind and decide to spend it with her.
In her frustration she got up quietly not to wake Wilhelm and
poured herself another glass of wine, hoping it would relax her
and send her off to sleep, however just one sip did the opposite
and she could feel herself on the verge of vomiting. She ran to
the bathroom and put her head into the toilet where the whole
contents of the evening meal were washed away after a few
flushes. Felicity had the sneaky suspicion she was pregnant and
bought a pregnancy kit at the local pharmacy, she had to know
for sure so she followed the instructions on the box and waited
anxiously, two lines slowly began to appear, this gave her the
confirmation she needed, she wrapped it up with kitchen roll and
placed it in her private safe along with the naked photos of
Wilhelm and herself in the mists of passion with a huge smile on
her face. She would surprise him with them at breakfast
tomorrow, before they both headed off to work.
Wilhelm woke to the aroma of baking bread along with the scent
of grilled bacon, he was ravenous, grabbing his silk robe, a
present from Felicity, he made his way to the open kitchen
where there was freshly pressed orange juice, Felicity had
already several papers of his choice delivered daily, underneath
was a brown envelope containing the pregnancy test applicator
and the compromising glossy photographs, she would enjoy
watching the expression on his face change dramatically.
“Would you like more coffee darling?”
“Please if you wouldn’t mind
and more bacon would be great,
this entire wonderful love making gives my appetite a huge
boost!”
“No problem, would you like more orange juice?”
“That would be great.”
Not bothering to glance up he began to read the wall street
journal, flipping through the pages, nothing really interesting,
his eyes stumbled onto the large brown envelope, wondering if it
had been placed there for him.
“Felicity is this for me sweetheart?”
She glanced over from the coffee machine realising he had
stumbled upon it before she could finish off grilling the bacon;
she made her way to the table with orange juice and coffee.
“Yes
, of course, your bacon will be along shortly.”
She couldn’t miss this
