“I’ll do it.” My voice was barely a whisper as three pairs
of male eyes turned to gaze at me. “I’ll do it under one condition.”

He leaned close and spoke in hushed tones. “No. Never. This
can’t happen.”

“You don’t understand.” I had tears in my eyes as I spoke.
“I have to. Without you I’ll die. If you have to go away I’ll die. I need to do
this. Let me do it for you.” I stood on my tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek.
I felt guilty laying this emotional blackmail on him, but I had to. He had to
understand what I would willingly do to keep him. He hung his head. Defeated.

“Alright then.” Sal rubbed his hands expectantly. “Looks
like we’ve got ourselves a party. What’s your condition sweetheart?”

I surprised myself when I blurted out my answer. It was my
darkest secret. A desire I kept hidden away deep down inside. I know I wanted
it and I knew he’d want it. It was the one thing that would complete him. The
one thing my mother refused to give him. I took a deep breath.

“I’ll do it, but only Daddy gets to come while he’s inside
me.”

His jaw dropped. Stunned by my revelation and what it
implied. I looked at him with pleading eyes, desperate for any kind of response
or recognition. Somewhere, deep underneath the shock and confusion I thought I
saw a hint of a smile. A glimmer of joy. It would have to do. I just hoped it
wasn’t wishful thinking.
