Cash got up on the second day to make arrangements for him and Stella have a romantic meal at a nice local restaurant.
Stella's phone rang.
" Hey, how are you?" She asked David, her half brother.
" Well, I have some news." He said sounding happy.
" I am getting married, I met a girl in college, we dated a few times, but things have turned serious between us." He said.
" Oh, that's wonderful news." She told him.
" Well, I was wondering if you would mind if Darlene and I got married on the beach in front of your house in California. I want to run it by Drake, but he hasn't returned my calls."
She smiled. "Of course that sounds lovely, knock yourself out, please enjoy your wedding. It sounds perfect."
Of course she knew that she wouldn't be invited, if his father and her mother were invited.
She did not see it coming.
" I want you to be there of course." He said, it was her house.
" Well, I think that sounds lovely, so your father won't be there?" She asked.
" No he's coming." He said.
" I see, well they don't know that I'm invited right?" She asked.
" No, they don't. But it will be a surprise." He said.
" Ah, it sounds wonderful, but I'm going to say no thank you. It will be better if I'm not there to cause turmoil." She said sadly.
" Stella it's not like that, it just hurts dad to know that his only brother lied and cheated on him."
" I know all that, just leave me alone. Tell me when not to be there." She said angrily.
" Stella, I love you, I want you there." He told her.
" Thanks, I'm sorry I don't do dad events, it's way too painful, so."....
" Darlene is insisting that you are there since it's your house and all." He finally admitted to her.
"David, tell her I will come." She said.
She had no intention of being there.
" Great, I will send you the invite. Talk to you later twerp." He hung up.
Stella got her robe on and went our to the new rose garden.
" This place is heavenly." She smelled her new rose garden.
Cash came up behind her and grabbed her, spinning her around.
" My baby, I missed you. I can't believe we are here again together."
Cash pulled her up to his mouth, her feet dangled. He held her there, close to his lips.
He was so strong this lover of hers. This man was the one that made her feel totally protected.
" Cash give me your mouth, stop teasing." She was pulling him in.
He kissed her then." I feel you, all the way Cash, my toes are tingling for you lover."
" All my senses come to life lover, you are the only one baby. When we are like this our hearts collide." He softly said to her.
" Cash, let's go back to that messy bed."
He held her and danced her into the house. Spinning her around as she held onto his neck.
" Cash this time, I'm going on top." She said as her eyes lit up mischievously.
He lay back and opened his arms to her.
Stella lifted her skirt, she removed her panties.
She put her knee over his body then straddled him. He held her hips and slowly lowered her down upon him.
He did not want to hurt her. Her eyes were doing this funny thing, rolling back as she bit her bottom lip.
She eased down. "Cash, you are very well endowed. I need a moment please."
She tried to move back and froze. She swallowed hard.
He smiled. " Let's move you off. I will be easy on you sweetie."
She fell off and was breathing hard. " Thanks, I need to work up to it." She said.
He laughed. " Stella most don't get that far."
She said,"Tell me, how many not like Drake right?"
He shrugged. "Well, I don't count them. I would never kiss and tell."
She lay on his chest.
" What about Kira, did she take it ...all?" She was curious.
He kissed her. " Who's that now?"
" Cash, you are not deaf, I asked about Kira Brownstone, your wife."
He said," You are my wife, as soon as you come with me to the court house, just say when and where. Well, I need to divorce Kira first."
" Cash, if I do get married, will you let me still see your brother's. I do love all my boys." She smiled.
" Stella, we are all fine with the sharing and caring plan, you are the only woman for us. So..why choose?" He put his finger in her mouth. "Taste me." He said.
He let her taste him. He placed the wet finger down to her warmth.
" Oh, you are all warmed up for me then?" She laughed as he touched her.
Cash readied her for him. He didn't hold back, she cried out as she felt his caress, his love for her was very big.
He made her let go several times in a row. She wasn't counting but it was a half a dozen times.
She was sweating and going wild on him. It made him so excited.
He never had a woman like this one. He never got enough of her. Her hot body was responsive and inviting.
He rubbed against her body gems. It turned him on completely.
" Here comes the baby maker!" He called out.
Stella was holding onto him she sucked in her breath as he found his release.
She let go several more times around him as he slowly moved away. He needed to lay still in this calm feeling of heaven that only she could give to him. Only his girl Stella.
An hour later they made love again. Stella was not able to stop loving him. They would be late for dinner.
She was dressed in a green and blue dress that he bought her.
There were patterns of lotus flowers on it. He wore a pair of black slacks and a white button down shirt.
He was so muscular, his arms bulged under the tight sleeves.
Stella sat next to him on the floor. She let him feed her. She was tucked under his arm, feeling his heart beat.
" Cash, did I tell you that I really love you. You gave my life new meaning when I met you.
You Just picked me up and carted me off. I knew the very first day that I was in love.
I made up that "pretend to be my fiancé" stuff, because I needed it to be true. You are my dream come true Cash."
" Stella you make me a better person. I always think of you before I act. You are a very good matriarch for the Calloway family. You might be a replacement for mother in a way. You embody her spirit."
They sat and ate, talking quietly. Sharing this time together as lovers do.
