  Zach slowed down and pulled off at a rest area. He turned off the car and turned towards her and grabbed her hands, ���Listen ��� if I wanted to fuck you, you wouldn���t have a chance to say no. You would be begging for it. I���m good Emma, really fucking good,��� Emma���s jaw dropped and he lifted her chin closing it and smiled, ���I���m going to be honest here, I think you are fucking amazing, beautiful, loyal, and dedicated to your family. The way you dance almost gave me an erection. If I didn���t need this job and I couldn���t see that you love him, you would be leaving him for me, eventually.���

  Before Emma could speak they were back on the road.

  ���I���m sorry I was rude.���

  ���Don���t, I think it���s hot,��� he laughed and passed a police officer going one hundred and twenty miles per hour, ���Fuck!���

  Lights flashed behind them and he pulled off the road.

  The police asked him to step out of the car and made him do a breath- a- lyzer. Cars drove by, slowed down to watch. Emma saw him smile and shake the officer���s hand and walk back to the car.

  ���Thank God he recognized me, and you by the way,��� he smiled and slowly pulled out.

  * * *

  Zach turned off the car and looked over at Emma who was sleeping, ���Emma you���re home.���

  She didn���t respond and he walked around the car and open the door as Brody stormed out of the house. ���Hey Emma your husband���s home and he looks pissed,��� Zach laughed as he took her hand and pulled her up.

  Emma laughed and hiccupped, ���Oh well,��� and she passed out.

  Zach threw her over his shoulder and started carrying her up the driveway.

  ���Put her down!��� Brody yelled.

  ���Yeah, here���s the thing, your wife is loaded and kind of passed out. I���ll be carrying her,��� Zach continued walking.

  ���I���ll take her,��� Brody snapped.

  ���I brought her home, I���ll carry her in,��� Zach growled back at him.

  Emma moaned, ���Uh oh,��� and threw up down his back.

  Zach laughed, ���Mrs. Hines, you just threw up on me.���

  She sat up and slid down his body and steadied herself against him, ���I���m so sorry.���

  ���No big deal, Brody can I get some clothes?��� Zach laughed.

  Emma turned around, ���What are you doing here?���

  ���This is my house, our house,��� Brody grabbed her hand, she pulled it away, ���Cut the shit, Emma!���

  ���Hey Zach I want you to know how much I a…preci…ate your help tonight, so I won���t fight with this guy in front of you,��� Emma spoke slowly and laughed.

  Caroline walked out, ���Emma are you drunk?���

  ���Yeah, I am,��� Emma laughed.

  ���Mom this is Zach, Brody���s replacement,��� Emma giggled, ���In the band when he was missing. Speaking of missing, did you know Elizabeth was at the fundraiser and she and Brody took a long walk together tonight?���

  Caroline looked at her with hurt in her eyes, ���Of course you did,��� Emma turned to Zach, ���Thank you so much for keeping me sane tonight, my���husband should also thank you because if you didn���t help me get out of there I may have caused an ugly scene,��� she hugged him and kissed his cheek.

  ���Thank you Zach,��� Brody sneered.

  ���My pleasure, nice meeting you,��� he smiled at Caroline and started to walk away.

  ���Hey Zach wait,��� Emma laughed, ���Your jacket and your car, not a good mix. Brody give him your jacket,��� Emma looked at him and he scowled at her, ���Fine, I���ll just give him my dress.���

  ���Emma ��� thanks anyway but I got this,��� he took off his jacket and shirt as he walked towards the car.

  Emma walked in the house and up the stairs. She threw her dress on the floor and pulled on a tee shirt and walked in the bathroom and brushed her teeth and washed her face.

  Emma walked in to check on Lexi and Brody stood over her crib with his arms crossed in front of him. Emma grabbed the thermometer and took her temperature. ���Perfect,��� she covered her up and kissed her head.

  Emma walked out and climbed in bed. Brody came in and stood looking at her, ���Emma,��� he started.

  ���I don���t want to do this tonight. I don���t feel well,��� Emma laid her head on her pillow.

  ���So you said when you told me not to come home tonight,��� Brody whispered as he took his shirt off getting into bed.

  ���Really, you get to be pissed at me?��� Emma sat up too quickly, ���Oh God,��� she stumbled out of bed and ran into the bathroom and threw up.

  Brody squatted down and pulled her hair back, ���I know you don���t want to do this tonight and that���s fine, Ariel paid for a dance������

  ���Ya well you owe $50,001 for my dance with Zach,��� Emma snapped and threw up again.

  ���That���s fine Emma, but your sister,��� he started.

  ���No,��� Emma grabbed toilet paper and wiped her mouth.

  ���Damn it listen to me, she was threatening to make things ugly if I didn���t talk to her. I didn���t want a scene Emma. You know damn well that I love you, that I think she���s toxic, that I can���t fucking stand what she���s done to you. I���m trying to get us through this, all of us,��� Brody said and let out a breath.

  ���I missed you so much I wanted to surprise you and be with you.���

  ���Em, you surprised me,��� he smirked.

  ���That���s not funny,��� Emma stood up.

  ���A little funny,��� he rubbed her back.

  ���Brody…I don���t feel well,��� Emma whispered.

  ���Hmm,��� he kissed her neck.

  ���I need to brush my teeth, I just yakked,��� Emma made a nasty face.

  Brody brushed her teeth and carried her to bed, ���I should have just come home tonight and not fucking gone there, I���m sorry.���

  ���You���re home now, please let���s go to sleep. I want to feel good in the morning,��� she laid across his chest.

  ���I love you Em,��� Brody kissed her head.

  Emma woke to his screams and thrashing, it was worse than before. ���Brody, wake up,��� Emma put her hands on his face.

  He grabbed her hands and flipped her to her back, ���You keep your fucking hands off of me bitch, is this what you want?��� He yelled pushing into her.

  ���Brody wake up!��� She cried out.

  ���You���ve been begging for it, now shut the fuck up!��� He reached under her shirt.

  ���Wake up!��� She screamed.

  Clive ran into the room and pulled him off of her, Brody scampered across the floor and crouched in the corner tucking his head into his knees rocking back and forth.

  ���You can go now Clive, thank you,��� Emma said taken aback.

  ���I���ll wait until he wakes up ma���am,��� Clive stood protectively in front of her crossing his arms.

  Brody stood up and charged after Clive who grabbed him and restrained him on the floor, ���LET ME FUCKING GO, YOU PIECE OF SHIT!��� He screamed as he fought him trying to get up.

  Emma sat paralyzed watching her husband, her phone sounded alerting her of a text.

  - Mrs. Hines���this is your dance partner from this evening. I wanted to giv
e you a heads up. I���ve been staying at the apartment and your husband���s had some pretty fucked up dreams, be careful…Erase this message I don���t want any issues for you or me. If you need anything, you have my number.

  ���Everything okay?��� Clive asked as Brody walked into the bathroom finally awake.

  ���Yes. Clive does this happen often?��� Emma asked, ���I mean have they gotten worse?���

  ���Yes ma���am, and he doesn���t remember them. Would you feel better sleeping in the other room?���

  ���No, I want to be here, with him,��� Emma said sadly.

  Brody walked out of the bathroom with his head hung in shame as he climbed in bed.

  ���Ok, I���ll be here if you need me,��� Clive reluctantly left the room.

  Emma sat and watched him, he was asleep and beautiful, she knew he���d been through hell and wished he could talk to her about it. She bent down and kissed his head and he stirred. She sat back not wanting to wake him. She thought of the last night he had been home and how he didn���t wake up with these awful nightmares. Emma smiled remembering what was different about that night. She leaned down and kissed his cheek and he breathed out and looked peaceful, she lay next to him and he smiled and whispered her name. ���Em.���

  * * *

  Emma woke in the middle of the night and wanted him, needed him. If this was the only way she could feel close to him, loved by him then she would take it. He was laying on his side and he was slightly erect. Emma slipped under the covers and started kissing him softly.

  ���Em,��� he moaned and rolled to his back.

  She moved faster, sucking harder as she ran her tongue along the bulging veins on the underside of his hard, thick penis. His finger moved into her and he pulled the covers off of her watching her pleasuring him as she sucked him faster and used her hands to help her.

  His thumb began to circle her clit and she squirmed, ���Em, come for me,��� he moaned and thrust himself into her mouth. She sucked him drawing out to his tip and flicking her tongue forcefully across his head and he began to stiffen. ���Slow down, ladies first,��� he moaned and slipped a second finger inside her and pressed down on her clit with his thumb. She stiffened but didn���t stop as she sucked him. They exploded together and she swallowed quickly and collapsed with him still in her hand. He rubbed her ass as they caught their breath.

  Brody sat up and kissed her behind lightly and looked down. ���Now, that���s a very fine sight,��� he smiled and bent down and nipped her butt lightly with his teeth.

  ���Without a doubt,��� she said kissing the head of him.

  ���Feeling better?���

  ���Just what I needed, way better than that pink stomach medicine,��� she sat up.

  ���You looked beautiful this evening, although I much prefer the way you looked down there,��� he smiled and pulled her up into his arms.

  ���Can we sleep for a while?��� Emma asked kissing his chest.

  ���I don���t know, will you allow it?��� He raised his eyebrow and smiled.

  ���Yes, I���ll wake you when I need you,��� she raised her eyebrows and turning facing away from him.

  ���Oh really?��� He laughed.

  ���Yes really, if my stomach begins to hurt again I���ll just������ she started.

  He grabbed her and pinned her down kissing her belly and she laughed loudly.

  ���Whenever you need medicine it���s here for you, love. Now get back over here and sleep,��� Brody laughed.

  ���God I love you,��� Emma whispered.

  ���I love you,��� Brody pulled her tighter.

  ���Always?��� Emma asked.

  ���And forever,��� Brody rubbed her back.

  CHAPTER SIX

  Emma woke to the angelic sound of her husband singing to their daughter. She sat up and stretched and scooted out of bed. Emma showered and grabbed her tee shirt and pulled it over her head and slipped on her favorite sweatpants.

  ���Good morning,��� she smiled as she walked into the nursery.

  ���I was hoping you would stay in bed until this one took her nap,��� Brody smiled at Lexi.

  ���Well, as soon as she does I promise to, as long as you don���t sneak out on me,��� Emma kissed his head and then Lexi���s. ���Can I get you anything to drink or eat?���

  ���Are you hungry?���

  ���I am, I���ve been living on saltines and ginger ale. The only thing I���ve had in my stomach of substance was…well you,��� she smiled.

  He held back him smile, ���Really now?���

  ���Yep! I���ll be back,��� Emma kissed his head and walked out.

  Brody walked into the kitchen, ���She���s asleep, can I feed you?��� He smiled reaching down his sweats releasing his erection.

  Emma���s eyes widened as she looked down, ���Please.���

  He pulled himself up to sit on the counter. Brody clenched his jaw as he watched her suck his cock.

  * * *

  Emma and Brody were laying on the couch asleep when Clive walked in, ���Do you have a minute?���

  Brody looked at him and rolled his eyes, ���Don���t you move, I want you right here���again,��� he whispered and kissed her head.

  ���We have a problem,��� Clive said as he popped an SD card into his laptop, ���This came in the mail today. We have no idea who it���s from, but there are specific instructions about how to keep this from going viral.���

  Brody watched the video and looked at Clive, ���Who the fuck is this from?���

  ���No idea, it was left in the mailbox. I do know that it wasn���t delivered by the mailman.���

  ���What were their fucking demands?���

  ���Two million dollars, if that isn���t delivered by noon tomorrow it gets leaked.���

  ���Get the money Clive, I can���t have her seeing this. It would fucking kill her,��� Brody clenched his fist.

  ���Tomorrow is Sunday, Brody. The banks are opened until noon today.���

  ���Alright, let me go tell Emma I need to step out. You call Tanner and have him meet us, I want to know this is authentic,��� Brody demanded walking out of the room.

  * * *

  Brody walked in and Emma was on the couch covered with a blanket, she lifted the blanket and flashed him.

  ���Clive gone?��� She asked seductively.

  ���He���s in the kitchen waiting for me, we need to step out for a bit,��� Brody looked away.

  ���Really?��� She laughed.

  ���Sorry,��� he looked back down at her.

  Emma noticed his eyes go from their sparkling happy place to a distant place, one that wasn���t easily swayed by just her naked body and over confidence in his desire for her. ���Oh, okay,��� she managed and quickly pulled the blanket tightly around her body, self- conscious and disappointed.

  ���Em, I won���t be gone long,��� he smiled and kissed her head and turned around to leave.

  ���Why?��� Emma snapped.

  Brody turned around and cocked his head to the side and smiled with his eyes, ���You need me right now Em, are you ravenous for more already, or can you wait?���

  She looked down embarrassed by the fact that she didn���t want him to walk out the door again in fear she wouldn���t see him. Even more embarrassed that he knew how badly she wanted him all the damn time.

  * * *

  ���Emma you mov
ed,��� Brody said grabbing her around the waist and carrying her up the stairs, ���I think I���m going to have to string you up in order to get you to listen to me.���

  He tossed her on the bed and kissed her neck, he pulled off her clothes and then his. He looked in her eyes and smiled. Emma looked at him and closed her eyes and let him take her.

  They showered in silence. ���You alright?��� Brody asked drying off her back.

  ���London will be home soon.���

  ���I know, I stopped and bought some clothes, we have a photographer coming over in the morning after church, family photos sound good?��� Brody hugged her.

  ���Sounds good, thank you,��� Emma put on clothes.

  ���Are you alright Emma?��� Brody asked cupping her face in his hands.

  ���Just tired, I think I have a fever. I probably should have stayed home instead of������ her voice broke and she began to cry.

  Brody hugged her, ���Emma come on, let���s get you into bed.���

  Emma continued to cry into his chest when Lexi woke, ���I���ll get her.���

  Emma grabbed her phone and called Lila, ���Hey, I need to talk to you.���

  ���You���re crying Emma,��� Lila said softly.

  ���Things aren���t good here, he���s keeping something from me and I don���t know what, but I can���t help but feel my life is falling apart again. Lila, I���m so scared that one of these days I won���t be able to recover from the blows,��� Emma sobbed.

  ���I���m here whenever you need me, even if it���s just to vent. I love you Emma, and I can honestly say that I know he loves you. It has to be okay, right?���

  ���What if it���s not enough Lila, what if love just doesn���t conquer all this time?��� Emma cried.

  ���I���m going to look at his schedule for next week and figure out when we can get together, I���ll text you. I don���t care what time it is, call me,��� Lila said softly.
