Our return to Redcliffe was greeted by a very pleased Bann Teagan, a grim looking Theron – damn! Now I'm going to have to remember his alias again �...� and a surprise; Tomas. We were all so relieved to see him - well, Alistair, Aedan, and I at least - that we almost bowled him over in our hurry to exchange handshakes, shoulder slaps, and in my case, a hug and kiss on the cheek. Everyone was exhausted - we'd practically run the last few miles - and Eamon needed to be given the ashes, so we decided. "Maybe Ed should inspect you to make sure you're still a virgin. Virgins bring a better price."Delia lowered her eyes and blushed, then she said, "Ed can inspect me any time he wants."Now it was my turn to blush. "Delia, as exciting as inspecting you would be to me, I'd never do it because I was going to sell you."Delia smiled and said, "I know you wouldn't. Would it really be exciting for you to inspect me?"Cassie giggled and pointed at my crotch. "He's got a log in his pants from just. They’ll water it all down right before the show starts, too.”Ann said nervously, “I’m so nervous about meeting Mark.”Alice teased, “Well, you’ve met Owen, haven’t you? He’s also a billionaire.”Ann said, “No. I’ve just seen him across the patio. I was too intimidated to introduce myself to him.”A stentorian male voice resounded from behind Ann. “Well, we can put those fears to rest right now.”The three women looked up at smiling Owen, although Alice had seen him approach the group.Ann blushed up. It was about an hour later that I received a text from her.“Are you okay with sharing your wife with your neighbor and his son, Steve?”“Absolutely babe, “I replied, “And I am happy with whatever we decide on to make it work, I will do anything to make it work Christy.”She replied moments later, “Anything, whatever we decide, are you sure?”I text back, “Absolutely, Christy, whatever. I know that it will probably mean that I have you less than I do now, but we will work it out.”Her reply got me.
