Rodney steeled himself to present the very picture of contriteness, although he was bristling inside. “I’m sorry. I didn’t realize I was holding you so tight. Forgive me.”

Brandi pursed her lips to show her displeasure, but he knew she wasn’t the type to stay angry with anyone for long. “I forgive you, but you need to watch it,” she warned.

“Of course, baby, but you can’t hold it against me for wanting to show off my beautiful fiancée. I want the world to know that you belong to me.”

“I think they already know because of this huge rock you bought me.” She laughed, holding up her three-carat diamond ring.

“Okay, I’ll go back into the party, but if you’re not back in ten minutes, I’ll come out to get you.”

“All right, I’ll be in shortly,” she promised, turning around again.

When she heard him walk off she looked up to the stars. They were so bright tonight. Everything was perfect. The food was excellent, everyone at the party seemed to be enjoying themselves, the twins were on their best behavior, and she was engaged to a man who adored her. She should have been happy, but something didn’t feel right. She gazed at the stars.

“Oh, Damon, am I doing the right thing? I know you wanted Rodney to take care of us, but I guess somewhere along the line he and I became closer. He is so good with the kids and DJ needs a man in his life. You should see him now. He looks just like you, and he’s growing like a weed. He’s nearly as tall as I am. I think he’s going to be tall like you, and Mya is eight going on thirty. She’s so smart, but, boy, she sure has a mouth on her you just wouldn’t believe.” Brandi paused for a moment, tears filling her eyes again at the thought of her children growing up without their father. This same thought plagued her from the night she saw Damon’s lifeless body lying in the hospital emergency department.

When Damon was killed, Brandi had been devastated. They were college sweethearts. From the time they were thrown together as partners for chemistry lab, they’d found that the chemistry between the two of them was far more interesting. They got married after they graduated.

Her husband was her best friend, her lover, the father of her children, and the man she loved beyond all others. Their love had always been strong, and with the arrival of the twins four years into their marriage, their love had grown stronger still. Brandi was so proud to be seen with her strong handsome man.

Many women eyed her with envy whenever she was out with her hunky husband. She also missed the nights he would make her body sing as he stretched her pussy walls so forcefully with each confident stroke of his masterful cock. He would drive her wild when he talked dirty to her. It was one of her weaknesses where he was concerned.

Like most married couples, they shared their ups and down, but their love was the kind that made people wish for what they had. Their lives together were the best ten years she’d ever experienced. Damon was one of life’s givers, deciding to become a police officer for the city of Philadelphia to make a positive impact on people’s lives. Even without his uniform he had touched so many in their community with his warm, generous nature. His job had kept her up most nights with worry, but when the call came that fateful night, it still shook her to the core.

Leaving the children with a neighbor, she rushed to the hospital hoping for the best but expecting the worse. Ignoring the security guards and Damon’s fellow officers who tried to stop her, she’d burst into the emergency department as a team of doctors and nurses tried to revive Damon. A hysterical mess, she vaguely remembered being led to the lobby. It was her worse nightmare come true when they pronounced him dead.

Damon’s death left a hole in her heart that she didn’t think could ever be filled again. She didn’t want to go out, or to see anyone, and didn’t care how she looked anymore. If she didn’t have the children to look after, Brandi probably would have crawled under her bedcovers and never poked her head out again, but DJ and Mya were only six.

They didn’t understand why their daddy was never coming home again, and although she put on a brave face for the twins when they were around, she would find herself crying uncontrollably when she was alone.

“I miss you so much, Damon, but being the kind of person you were, I know you wouldn’t want me to mourn you forever. Rodney has been such a rock.” She knew that if she’d to, she would have been able to make it through, but having Rodney around helped a lot. She believed he would raise her children as his own, but it wasn’t the same. Still, she owed him so much.
