The thought of having sex with Micah no longer terrified her. Right now, she wished she dared to go to him and ask if they could sleep together. Lucy knew that Micah would make her first time pleasurable. Her fingers found the hard nub between her legs and as she slowly rubbed it, she imagined Micah touching her. She wanted him. She ached for him.

Micah

Micah curses as he steps into the cold shower. He was sure that Lucy wanted him as much as he wanted her.

What is stopping me? She’s a grown woman who is quite capable of saying no if she chooses. I don’t think she would, but she would if it didn’t feel right to her.

He honestly couldn’t answer why he didn’t go back to her room and have sex with her. Even though she was a virgin, he was certain that he would be satisfied. Micah was cocky enough to believe that she would be, too.

“Soon enough,” he told himself. “Be patient.”

The problem was that his body didn’t want to be patient.

Finally, after thinking about practically everything else under the sun and a long shower, his body calmed down and he was able to go to bed and sleep.

Lucy’s hair was a little wild and she looked sleepy when she stumbled to the dining room for breakfast the next morning. She slumped down in the chair and gratefully sipped the coffee that he poured for her.

“Rough night?” he asked with a smirk.

She made a face at him. “I don’t want to talk about it.”

“That’ll teach you to watch scary movies before bed.”

“Monsters aren’t what kept me awake last night,” she replied dryly.

“Oh,” he said. “Just so you know, I might have had the same problem.”

Just then, Vera stepped into the dining room with a big plate of French toast.

“I remembered they are your favorite,” she said, smiling at Lucy.

“They are,” Lucy said. “Can I help you bring anything else out?”

“Is that your way of asking if I made bacon, too?” Vera teased.

“No, but did you?” Lucy asked.

“I did. And I’ve got it handled,” Vera replied.

Vera and Michelle brought out bacon, hashbrowns, ketchup, syrup, and orange juice. Micah was amused as he watched Lucy eat. As always, she had impeccable manners, but she could eat as much as he could.

“I have no idea where that woman puts all that food,” Vera told Michelle. “I don’t think there is an ounce of fat on her.”

“That woman can hear you.” Lucy laughed. “It’s genetics. Everyone in my family eats a lot and doesn’t put on much weight. Of course, we all spend a lot of time in our shifted form and running around. My mother used to tell my dad that she was going to have to get a second and third job just to feed all of us.”

Vera and Michelle laughed. Micah was glad to see that the three women got along so well. That would make things a lot easier during the pregnancy and later on when Lucy came back for visits.

The doctor said that everything looked good. Lucy was healthy and there was no reason why she shouldn’t be able to conceive and have a healthy pregnancy. Both of them were excited. Micah was sure that Lucy was happier than before since she knew she could be a part of the baby’s life.

He dropped her back off and headed to his office. There was a ton of paperwork for him to look through. Micah had been staring at the computer for about an hour, reading environmental and other reports from Ginger. A knock interrupted his thoughts. Micah looked up and groaned. His father was standing in the doorway and he had that look that meant trouble.

Gavin walked in without an invitation and sat in the chair across from Micah. “Who is that woman staying at your house?”

“How did you find out about Lucy?”

“Everyone knows that you moved some slut into your place.” Gavin sneered. “It’s obvious that she’s just after your money.”
