He carried me to my room and he laid me gently on the bed where I knew I was getting drowsier by the second. The last thing I remembered was him turning down the blinds in my room, and feeling him slip into the bed next to me. Then he wrapped his arm around me from behind as I fell blissfully into slumber.

..::Konner::..
Waking up with Siddaleigh was new to me. I have never woken up with a woman before. Looking at this beautifully warm sleeping girl next to me made my chest tighten with an emotion I knew was love, or even more than that. It was all consuming. Like her life force was wrapping around me and sinking deep into my soul. There was no way I could see myself ever letting her go.
The woman in question wiggled her sweet rear against my dick and it woke from half erect to full mast. Stroking my fingers down her arm and around her stomach, I felt it contract as if being tickled. I gently turned her to her back and slipped a hand down her pussy where I felt a little stubble of barely there hair and felt the cream of her arousal coat my fingers.
I slowly and stealthily climbed my way over her body and between her thighs. Gently opening her legs for my throbbing erection, I slowly pushed into her.

Threats are Threats that Can’t be Denied
..::Siddaleigh::..
The dream I was having was so good, I didn’t want to wake up. In my dream, Konner was above me sliding in and out of me. Nice, slow and sweetly, he pushed all the way full-tilt and pulled almost all the way out. Letting the head of his cock nestle in my opening.
Wait, what?
My eyes flew open to see my dream was in fact reality.
“Well, at least this isn’t a dream.”
Thank God.
“Siddaleigh Mare, I’ll keep you too exhausted and sated to think about having any wet dreams about me, ceann beag.”
He was the only person who ever called me by my first and middle names. It was different. I always hated my middle name. It was like calling me a horse. Once, back in junior high, I had to find the meaning of my name and came to find out it meant ‘Of the Sea or bitter’. I went with bitter since I had no idea what ‘of the sea’ meant. Best movie ever, but I was no mermaid. The way he said it though, it made it sound sexy and fun. He was a Navy SEAL so I guess now I’ll happily chose ‘of the sea’. Whatever the heck that meant.
Konner leaned in close to me and nipped at my chin and licked his way down to my left upturned nipple and sucked it deep inside his warm moist mouth.
“Konner, that feels so good. You feel so good. Suck my nipples harder. Oh fudgesticks. That’s so hot. I love when you bite and suck on my nipples.”
He was pushing so deep inside me. I felt him lift my knees, and opened them wider to shove his penis all the way to the base of his erection. This was a new sensation and it was like he was massaging that hard to reach spot only some men could reach. Konner reached it. Several times. In fact, every time.
“Milk my dick, Siddaleigh Mare. Let your sweet, hot juices flow all over my hard dick. So tight. You’re always so tight like a glove on me. I love this pussy.”
Hearing his erotic words made my vagina clutch and quiver around him. I felt my wetness sliding out and he pushed me further and further into release.
Would it be so hard to surrender to this man who means so much to me? Had anything truly changed my feelings from eight years ago? Was I still thinking like a girl who longed for the one man I wanted but couldn’t have?
I hated being miserable. This whole break thing was stupid. I truly want to give him all of me, this time. To be his everything and anything just to be closer to him. So I told him.
“Take everything, Konner. I just wanna be with you, I just want to be closer to you. I just want to be-oh, Konner. I am yours. You can have all of me, anything and everything.”
“Shh, my love. You don’t need to say that, although it gives me such joy hearing you say it. But for now, ceann beag, you’re thinking way too hard right now. Just feel. Feel all my love giving you so much pleasure. You’re so sweet and hot. So wet and tight, loving my body like nothing else this world has ever known. I am yours, too. Give it me, Siddaleigh Mare. Let me feel that tight, wet pussy coming all around me once more.”
I guess I don’t mind surrendering. My heart, my body, even my very soul to this man. My man who gives me such pleasure, warmth and love. Yes, I could definitely surrender my heart to this man. My man.
“This definitely isn’t a dream then. Oh. My. Yes, Konner. Take me harder. Deeper, Konner.”
“No dream, baby. Take me home, sweet Siddaleigh. Take me all the way home in your sweet warmth.”
He thrust faster and deeper and when I was almost at my crest, he slowed his speed. Silly man was teasing me.
“Konner, don’t tease me. Take me. Make me go higher.”
“Your pussy’s loving my dick so good. That’s it, sweet baby, take it. Take my cock inside your sweet pussy. Tá tú mianach. I love you, Siddaleigh Mare. Till I die, I love you.”
Then he sped back up.
I knew I was in love with him. I’ve always loved him; I don’t think I’ve ever stopped.
“I love you, Konner. I love you so much it scares me.”
Konner drove inside me deeper still and when I came, I screamed his name in beautiful rapture. He followed right behind me growling out in intense pleasure.
He laid on top of me in a sweet blanket of warmth. I knew it was in his arms that I belonged. God, this man knew how to give me so much. All I wanted to do was go right back to sleep. That’s how it felt last time we had a night of long love-making. It had only been once, but I felt so satiated that I could just stay right here. His softening erection slid from my sheath.
“What time is it, Konner?”
He groaned in sated exhaustion and lifted up to check his Fossil wrist watch.
“Enough time to get up, shower and help you get ready for your show love. Six in the morn’.”
“Shit! It’s too late.”
I shoved him off me, and threw on my silk robe and ran to the bathroom. Shower. I need a quick shower. Breakfast? No. I can skip breakfast. Or pick up some Sonic on the way. Yeah, that’s good.
Turning on the shower, I took the quickest shower known to man. Drying off on my way back to my room, I seen Konner standing in front of my vanity with a look of pure rage and fury.
“What. The. Fuck. Are. These?”
Shit. I could see him trying to keep himself in check over the creepy letters I’ve received recently. Oh, not good. The only way to not look guilty or upset was to look angry.
“Don’t talk to me like that. It’s nothing.”
I had three more letters in the foyer. Luckily he hadn’t see those, yet.
“Nothing? Some creep is sending you letters. Not just letters but threatening ones. How long has this been going on Siddaleigh Mare? I can’t protect you if you don’t tell me these things. Are there more?”
No accent. He must be really mad to not have it come through. This was not the fun-loving Konner; this was all Navy SEAL warrior with the case of pure lividness burning inside of him. I didn’t want to tell him about the others but sensing he could tell if I lied, I just shrugged instead.
“What? There are? How many more? Siddaleigh, do you know who is sending these?”
“No, Konner, I don’t. Stop pestering me.”
I stomped off in the pseudo-angry mood I was trying to play and walked inside my closet to put on my clothes. We were going to set up the stage props and signs before we came back to get ready for the fashion show.
I loved knowing that my closest friends would be there and the girls from the store. We were becoming a close knit group of women who seemed to need each other, albeit different reasons.
I didn’t want to dwell on the stupid so-called threats because all it did was stress me out. I felt his shadow behind me and before I was able to turn, he pinned me gently to closet wall.
“Konner? Stop.”
&nb
sp; “No. Tá tú mianach, Siddaleigh Mare Carrington. I will do any and everything I can to protect you. Keeping these from me, even on your stupid ‘I need a break bullshit’ was not smart. Someone could be after you. These are not simple hate letters babe.”
He took his hands from the sides of my ears on the wall, and drew them down my arms and settled them over my hips.
“I don’t know what you said and it better not be something that’s going to piss me off. I don’t need you to protect me, Konner; I have a gun if I need protection. And my, what did you call it? My ‘stupid’ need of a break is going to recommence if you keep being a big jerkasaurous.”
He ground my backside into his groin as I mentioned myself owning a gun. That’s when I flashed back to last night. Protection. We used no protection.
“And you definitely won’t be get any from me without using protection either. No condom, Konner? What the eff?”
“That’s an honest mistake, which I am sorry for, but we were both out of control by that time. Feeling your sweet, hot heat bare on me was fucking perfection. I loved taking you bare, baby. No barriers between us. Burning, sweet silk covering my dick and so fucking good I could go again right now.”
Feeling his erection push and grind against my rear turned me on like wildfire. We really needed to go and although having sex right now would help distract him from the letters, I should just tell him. I had things to do besides dwell in the closet with him. Heaving a sigh, my shoulders sagged with defeat and resignation.
“It started about a month or so ago. They came here a few times and at the store twice. I didn’t want to think about it. I don’t know why I would have a stalker Konner. I keep to myself. Yes, you might be right about telling you before, but I didn’t want to add more stress. Konner, I sometimes feel so stressed out.”
Konner turned me around, laced his fingers with mine and walked me to the bed. When he sat on the bed, he tugged me down on his lap. I wanted to crawl inside his warmth and stay there. He always created so much heat. I loved snuggling into him.
“Baby, I know you do. You don’t ever go anywhere. You’re either with me or the girls at work or your friend Mags from school. Could it be your ex?”
I did not want to think about him. I didn’t want my past showing itself now in my future.
“I don’t think so. I mean I don’t know. I haven’t heard from him since being in the hospital four years ago. I don’t want it to be him or anyone. I just…wish it would go away.”
“Wishing won’t make it go away, mo ghrá. Show me these other letters and I’ll have a friend of mine see what he can find. I’ll have Nate look into your ex’s whereabouts. That’s the most likely suspect.”
I looked into his beautiful green eyes and knew he would do anything to keep me safe without making it seem like a burden on my shoulders. I knew he wanted to carry it all himself. I just didn’t know how to adjust to giving someone all that trust. I did trust Konner though.
“Alright, Konner. Thank you.”
“Yeah, babe, thank me tonight when we get home, mo féin.”
“In your dreams. Now let’s get going. Time to get this party started.”
“Reality is better than dreams, Siddaleigh Mare. Trust me, I already showed you a few times, have I not?”
Making my way back to the closet, I stopped outside the door and looked back at Konner.
“I do trust you, Kon. With my everything.”

Tonight was a total success! I felt such a rush running through my body at just how well it turned out. Between Candace, Mags and myself, our show turned out awesome. The girls did an amazing job.
Brianne, Konner’s little sister did all the hair and make-up, which totally blew us away. She beautifully coordinated the make-up to fit the outfits. It was like art.
We were bombarded with fashion magazines wanting to list some of our designs in their advertisements. I had a WTF moment and my smile hasn’t left my face. Any worries I had, were so far from my mind.
Konner did all the heavy lifting. Which I can honestly say, was a bit of a turn on. All that muscle straining. Lord baby Jesus, thank you. Every chick there was staring and I can happily say that that man is coming home with me.
Cammy’s mother-in-law couldn’t babysit, so Damien was up there with us, and he tagged along behind Konner. Seeing him with Damien made my tummy flutter and it made me wonder. What if? Placing my hands on my soft belly, it did make me wonder. I was pregnant before. Would I be ready to be responsible for another life? I had looked back up and saw Konner staring down at my hands. When his face flickered back on my face, it became flushed and peaked. The lust was there, clouding in his eyes. I didn’t think he’d have any problem with me carrying his child. I shook my head, rolled my eyes and stuck my tongue at him. Then I walked to finish what I needed to do to wrap this up.
I figured I was going to be too lazy to clean up and Konner told me he’d send a cleaning service to take care of everything. I tried to tell him the store would pay for it but of course he said something stupid about his male pride being offended and I said ‘whatev’.
To celebrate, we all planned to go out to a late dinner and drinks at Chili’s Bar and Grill. The group was walking out of banquet room to the parking lot when my phone started ringing. I didn’t recognize the number so I didn’t answer the first time. Konner gave me a concerned look and I just shook my head with noncommittally.
The second time my phone rang, it was the same number. Thinking maybe it was someone important, I answered on the third ring.
“Your show turned out real hot, bitch. You should check your store, it’s really fired up.”
Click.
What the-? My store?
“Oh, my God.”
The girls stopped and looked back at me with concern. Konner was practically hovering over me in an obvious protective stance and asked me what happened.
“I don’t know, I just got a call from the same number as a second ago and it was like one of those distorted voice things that disguises the voice. It said, ‘your show turned out real hot, you should check out your store. It’s really fired up’. I need to get to the store. Now, Konner.”
I left out the bitch part because I know Konner would go ‘50 Shades’ thermo-nuclear on the sitch. Did not need more stress than what I was feeling right now. Christian Grey had nothing on a Navy SEAL. I can so tell you that right now.
“Shit, Sidda. It’s not safe. Why don’t you go with the girls and I’ll go check it out. I’ll call Nathan and have him meet me there.”
“No, Konner. That store is a macular part of my life. I am going. You’re not the boss of me.”
I didn’t like going either, but if some sonuvabitch, namely Mike, was able to get in my store and mess things up, I was so going psycho on someone. Or start balling my eyes out. That was so not an option. Not right now. I’d ball out my eyes in private if something happened. I can so keep in all that pain. Right. Keep telling yourself that.
“We’re going too. We stick together. Like glue, Siddaleigh. Like ticks. Tick tight, baby-cakes,” Mags never said my whole name unless she was ready to charge head on like a bull.
“Yeah!”
The other girls chimed in as well. I didn’t want them hurt, but I felt a wonderment build in my heart for their fierce loyalty to stand behind me.
“No. Go home, Brianne, girls, this has nothing to do with any of you.”
“Konner, we’ve all become good friends. We stick together in times of hardship. This might be one of them times. I’ll call Nate, tell him to meet us there and then we’ll figure out a plan of action then.”
I never thought I’d hear sweet little Brianne take charge before. If I wasn’t so worried about the condition of my store, I’d high-five her.
“Arrrg! Fuck! Alright, let’s get this show on the road. Siddaleigh, Bri, you two with me. Ladies, follow us in one vehicle, I’ll have someone come check out the other cars to make sure nothing is wrong w
ith them. Just gimme a sec to check these first.”
While Brianne was making the call to Konner’s friend, Konner went over my mustang and Magdalene’s Tahoe. He checked under the hood and underneath the body to make sure nothing was tampered with.
Looking satisfied that everything was in order, we got in the cars and took off to the store.

I’m Affianced? What?
..::Siddaleigh::..
It took us twenty minutes to get there and when we did, I couldn’t believe my eyes. There was a line of smoke coming out of the end entrance where my store was located.
No. No, no, no, no. This couldn’t be happening to me. When we got in the lot the Houston Fire Department was already taking out the flames and it was surrounded by the HPD.
I heard Konner call out my name as I flew out the door. I raced to the nearest police officer.
“Ma’am, I’m sorry, but you need to back away.”
“That’s my store on fire, officer. I have every right to be here.”
“How did you know that?” The officer immediately became suspicious and called over another cop.
“Get in touch with Detective Hindrons. He’s working on my case. I’ve been getting threatening letters. This might have something to do with it.”
Konner put his hand to the small of my back for the support I so desperately needed.
That’s when he whispered, “Who is the Detective? And why didn’t you tell me any of this, this morning anamchara?”
I looked up at him and had to roll my eyes.
“You said you would take care of it. I didn’t want you to get side tracked by the police.”
He humpfed and shook his aggravation off with a low chuckle.
“Remember what I told you this morning, álainn. Tonight. After we take care of all this.” He whispered into my ear as a hand wandered down my backside for a quick squeeze then rested once more on the small of my back.
