Chapter Thirty-ThreeWhile Grace and Mac were packing for their weekend beach getaway, Michael Stone filed the paperwork requiring Alice King to submit to prenatal DNA testing.Alice’s lawyer, Dennis Conrad, seemed to have minimal experience in such matters. His interactions with Alice made Michael wonder if Dennis was more than just her legal representation. The way he laid his hand on her back and grasped her hand seemed more like a lover’s touch. He suddenly wished he’d brought Grace along. She’d have had a field day with this. But at this point, he wanted to keep his clients as far away from Alice as possible.He’d often thought of her as a true asset to McKinley Stewart. She’d kept him remarkably focused and organized. He’d admired how well she’d done her job until she had allowed her jealousy of Grace Remy to drive her batshit crazy.Admittedly, Michael had initially been in Alice’s corner, seeing Grace as a distraction at best. No, that wasn’t quite right; he’d judged her and decided she was a promiscuous gold-digger, especially after Alice had shared some lurid details from Grace’s past.He was sure McKinley was thinking with his dick when he decided to marry his escort. Then he did a little digging of his own and found out she was extraordinary. Her resume was more than impressive, and she exuded class. Then she did the unthinkable for a woman supposedly after her man’s money – she’d insisted on an ironclad prenup. One that awarded her very little. In fact, she’d argued with Mac when he was adamant about giving her his rental house in Queens if they should part ways.It made him grateful that he’d required Alice to sign an NDA. He’d been protecting McKinley by doing so, but he was thankful that it would help keep Grace’s past where it belonged – in the past.“My client objects to having the DNA test before the baby is born. She is concerned that it will cause undue stress on the fetus,” Dennis said.“There is no harm to the fetus in prenatal DNA testing,” Michael responded. “Your client has made a very serious claim and needs to be able to prove it. I have a cease-and-desist letter filed by my clients.”“What does that mean?” Alice asked.Before Dennis could explain, Michael spoke up. “It means you need to stop making baseless accusations.”“Why do you assume I’m lying, Michael?” Alice asked tearfully.Michael took a deep breath. “Alice, we both know McKinley didn’t have sex with you. Are you even pregnant?”“What a despicable thing to ask!” Alice shouted. “Do something, Dennis!”“What do you want me to do, baby, um, er, Alice?”Alice glared at Dennis. Then she said, “Fine, I’ll take the damn DNA test. But only after I meet with McKinley in person.”“Alice, I don’t think…” Dennis started.“I’ll contact him to see if he will meet with you,” Michael cut him off, feeling impatient.Mac and Grace were getting ready to head to the airport when Michael’s call came.“Hi there. I’m with Alice and her lawyer in my office. She has agreed to the prenatal DNA test, but only if you agree to meet with her in person. Is there any chance you’d have time to stop by on your way to JFK?”“Are you fucking kidding? Why would I meet with her? Isn’t that what I’m paying you for?”Michael was taken aback by McKinley’s demeanor, but it was asking a lot. “I’m aware that this is the last thing you want to do right now, but I have bursa escort a feeling it’s this, or she will drag things out until the baby is born. She does have that right. Do you and Grace want this hanging over your heads that long?”Mac was silent for a moment. “Fine,” he finally said, “we will be there in twenty minutes. But I will only agree to meet with Alice if Grace is with me.”“Of course.”Grace squeezed his hand. “We are in this together. The sooner we deal with her, the sooner we can be done with Alice forever.”“You’re right.”Randall dropped them off in front of Stone and Associates, Law Offices, and said, “I will drive around a bit if I can’t find a place to park. Just text me when you’re ready to be picked up. I will stay close by.”Grace thanked Randall and slipped her hand into Mac’s. “We’ve got this.”When they entered Michael’s conference room, daggers shot out of Alice’s eyes. “What is she doing here? I asked to meet with McKinley, not his gold-digging whore! Why would you stay with him after he got me pregnant?”Michael said nothing as he gestured for Grace and Mac to sit across the table from Alice and Dennis.Mac started to respond when Grace put a hand on his arm. “I’m his wife, Alice. Did you really think I wouldn’t stand by Mac’s side in all this?”“I think you’re a fool to stand by a man who was happy to come running back to my bed,” Alice said indignantly.Grace inhaled sharply. “Look, Alice, enough is enough! What do you hope to gain from all this? You know damn well that there is no way my husband is the father of your child. So, what are you hoping to accomplish by all of this?”“It is his baby. I swear it is. He came to me one night when you had been fighting and…”“Stop! Just stop! Do you want to know how I know you’re lying? I caught Mac multiple times masturbating in our shower after DJ was born. If he had your bed to turn to, why on Earth would he need to spill his seed by hand? Are you that lousy of a lover that he still needed to take care of himself?”Mac shifted uncomfortably in his chair but said nothing.Alice was livid. “You know as well as I do that McKinley has a high sex drive. I’m sure the few times he was able to cum with me wouldn’t have been enough for a man like him.”“Okay, then tell me this, Alice. What shape is the birthmark just to the right of his dick?”Alice looked flustered. “I don’t remember; it was dark in my room when we made love. I’m shy and…”Grace rolled her eyes.“Is Mac shaven smooth or all-natural?”“Well, I…”“What’s his favorite sex position?”Shock and disgust fell over Alice’s face.“Come on, Alice, if he was in your bed multiple times, not to mention being your supposed lover before he met me, you should know the answers to these questions.”“I’m not going to discuss such personal matters; I’m not crass like you, you whore!”“No, you’re just a liar, one hell-bent on destroying my life and my marriage.”“I don’t give a fuck about you! It’s McKinley I want to destroy!” Alice blurted out. Immediately she clamped both hands over her mouth.“You’re not really pregnant, are you? You simply want to hurt Mac because he chose me over you. Why can’t you let go, Alice?”“You don’t understand what it’s like to be cast aside by the man you love! I thought he loved me and was just too professional to make a move. So, I had a whole plan worked out on how I would bursa escort bayan get him to notice me that way. Then you came in and stole him away from me! You ruined my life!”Grace took a deep breath and steadied herself before replying.“I do know what it’s like to love a man I thought loved me, only to have my entire life destroyed when he didn’t. I do know this because I lived it,” she said quietly. “I was young, in love, and blinded by my foolish desires. But instead of loving me back, he drugged me and allowed his friends to gangbang me and then paid off local authorities to have me thrown in jail for three months when I tried to report it. I lost everything! My life was ruined by a ruthless, disgusting man who abused his power and abused me. So, don’t tell me that I don’t understand.”Mac silently slipped his hand in Grace’s and offered strength as she continued.“And what happened to you? A decent man who never once claimed to have feelings for you terminated your employment when you set out to sabotage him, and still, he gave you a very generous severance package. And when he thought you were in a bad place emotionally, he agreed to meet with you and walked right into your trap. I might be a whore, but you’re a horrible person.”Grace picked up her purse and took out a small box. Mac’s brow furrowed, but Michael grinned. God, she was clever!“Here, Alice. Here’s a pregnancy test. Go into Michael’s private lavatory and pee on the stick. If you’re truly pregnant…”“That’s disgusting! I want more money. Lots of money, and I will go away and stop bothering you. I’ll get an abortion like you made Rebecca do. I’ll…”“No, Alice. We are done listening to your nonsense. Prove that you’re pregnant, and we will discuss the next steps. But if this stick doesn’t show a plus sign, we’re done. And if you continue to harass us, we will sue you for defamation and whatever else Michael says we can sue you for. We are fucking done with you, Alice! What’s it going to be?”Mac had never seen Grace like this. She was so calm and controlled, yet with rage bubbling just below the surface, he was afraid she might spontaneously ignite and set them all on fire.Alice burst into tears. “I was pregnant, but I miscarried.”“You’re a pathetic fucking liar.” Turning to Michael, Grace said, “We’re done here. Clean up this mess and make it clear to Ms. King that any further attempt to drive a wedge between Mac and me or extort any additional money will get ugly.”Michael nodded. Dennis held Alice while she sobbed. Mac tried not to be turned on by his wife’s formidable display.“Get an NDA from Mr. Conrad, please, since he is now privy to an ugly part of my past.”“I’ll take care of everything,” Michael assured her.“Mac, text Randall. I’m ready to go to the beach for the weekend. You’ll owe me some pretty amazing makeup sex for this nightmare.”Mac grinned. “Yes, ma’am.”Michael snorted and patted Mac on the shoulder. “Go, I’ve got this.”“I loved you, McKinley!” Alice screamed. “Why couldn’t you love me back?”Mac stopped and shook his head but didn’t answer. It was handled, and he promised Grace not to let Alice back into the space between them. Ignoring her seemed like the best way to show Grace he was serious about keeping that promise.Chapter Thirty-FourAs they got into the car, Mac and Grace were silent for a few minutes. escort bursa Mac searched for the right thing to say and was grateful beyond belief when Grace broke the silence first.“Well, that was intense.”Mac allowed half a laugh to escape his mouth. “And that is the understatement of the year.”“Nothing that a magical weekend away at a lovely condo on the beach won’t fix,” Grace mused.And just like that, in a New York minute, Mac fell in love with Grace all over again.“You must love me madly. I’m so sorry that I didn’t see Alice for the vindictive…”“Stop; I do love you madly. But I’m done with her; we’re done with her. I don’t want to waste any more time discussing her or letting her have another moment of our thoughts. She’s done nothing but try to make us miserable, but I have great faith in Michael’s ability to make her go away.”Mac took Grace’s hand and brought it to his lips, kissing it gently. “I love you madly, too. I’m done letting my naiveté hurt you.”Grace’s eyes looked misty, but she didn’t shed a tear. Instead, she changed the subject. “So, tell me about this condo on the beach.”The condo on the beach was the perfect setting for a weekend away. Grace sat on the balcony overlooking the Gulf of Mexico as the sun dipped into the water when Mac joined her with a glass of wine.“Everything good with DJ?” Mac asked, knowing Grace had called Addie to check on their little guy.“He’s been an angel. I reminded Addie that she could thaw some frozen breast milk if she runs out of what I have in the fridge. I didn’t want to assume she would know to do that since she’s not a mom. Well, at least not in the traditional sense.”“It’s still a little weird to think of her as my stepmom, but she has slid into the role of grandma really well, hasn’t she?”“Yes, and I am so grateful for that. And for the fact that they are giving up their weekend so we can be here.”“It didn’t seem like much of a hardship. Both she and dad seemed excited about time with their grandson.”“Still, it’s wonderful to be able to leave him and not worry the whole time we are here. I couldn’t have done so and let myself relax and enjoy this time with you if it weren’t for Dad and Addie.”“Then here’s to Dad and Addie,” Mac said, holding his glass up in a toast.“To Dad and Addie,” Grace said, clinking her glass to his. “And to not wasting another minute of our time alone. Let’s take our wine inside and get naked.”Mac felt his cock twitch at the mere suggestion of getting naked with his wife. “Who am I to argue?”Once inside, Grace gulped the rest of her wine.“Easy does it, my love. I imagine your tolerance level is much lower, having abstained from alcohol for the better part of a year now.”“Don’t worry, darling. I can still suck your dick while I’m tipsy.”“Well, then, get on your knees and show me.”He’d envisioned a much more romantic start to the weekend, but he’d be damned if he was going to discourage his pretty wife from opening her mouth and enjoying her oral fixation. He could seduce her later.“Oh, fuck, Gracie! Your mouth and tongue are so talented.”Grace looked up at him with bedroom eyes, “Wait till you feel my throat.”He moaned and felt his body shiver as she took him all the way in and held him in her throat for a moment. He’d always been a fan of oral sex, but Grace took it to a whole different level.His resolve to be gentle flew out the window when she took his hands in hers and placed them firmly on her head. Her hair and throat felt like silk, and he couldn’t resist the need to grab hold tightly and thrust into her greedy mouth.
