freshly brushed.
                  After that, Josie had no other choice but to give Jane her last feeding and get her down to bed. Jason was in bed on time and so were the girls. So, Josie put up the chili, leaving out a portion for Žarko when he finally returned home. She turned on the big screen television and decided to relax.
                  She had no idea what time she actually fell asleep, but her next memory was of being settled in a bed. She only knew that because it had been a while since she’d laid in one. “Stay still,” she heard him say while she was mid-stretch.
                  “What time is it?”
                  He sat on the edge of the bed. “It is late. Too late to go home.”
                  Her body felt like it, so she rolled over to snuggle deeper into the mattress. “Don’t let me sleep too long. Jane will probably be awake and hungry soon.” That was the last thing remembered for the rest of the night.
     

Chapter 6
                  Žarko checked on everyone in his home, ensuring that all was well. Just as she said, the infant was starting to wake, so he lifted her into his arms so she would halt her shifting. It seemed like it had been forever since he’d had the chance to hold something so small, just because he could. So, he took her into the kitchen where he prepared a bottle that Josie must have forgotten that she’d brought over when they first made their agreement.
                  He had everything ready by the time Jane decided that she really was hungry enough to start fussing.
                  Jane. It didn’t suit such a cute baby. She needed a new one, like maybe Jasmina or Jelisaveta. “We will talk to your mother about new name,” he told the baby. He knew she didn’t much care about anything, considering she was too busy eating. Little ones had it so easy.
                  “Tata.” He turned to find Desa entering the living room, while rubbing her eyes.
                  “Why are you awake?” His daughter came to sit beside him, snuggling into his side.
                  “I heard you and wanted to say hi.”
                  “Now you have said it. It is time to go back to sleep, da .” She nodded before placing a quick kiss on his cheek and then made her way back to bed. He then burped the baby before putting her back to sleep in her crib. One last check around the house then he made his way to his bed. By that time, Josie had taken up most of the bed space. He shifted her over enough to leave him space to lay, but for the most part, it didn’t matter. He awoke to Josie hanging off him like a clinging vine. She had a leg thrown over his hip, pressing against his rising cock.
                  He sighed but didn’t stop his arm from wrapping around her waist, leaving his hand extremely close to her rear. This is where he hated the fact that she was so innocent still. With any other woman, he would have simply rolled her over and proceeded to tease her body into wakefulness. But not Josie. He needed her to remain whole so that she could take care of his children and her own, though he still wasn’t sure why her kids mattered to him.
                  Maybe it was because she represented the kind of wife he’d thought he’d married, one that cared all about taking care of the family. His mother had been the one to make it possible for his father to do everything necessary to provide for them. He’d wanted the same thing for his girls, but hadn’t met the right woman the first time around. Josie being what he needed, gave him hope for the future of his daughters. He could tell that she didn’t mind taking care of the home for him.
                  Now, when they got used to one another and developed more of a partnership, he fully intended to make use of her body. It wasn’t hard for him
