Monster in law: Chapter six
~~o0o~~
B.B. Babcock pushed the black limo's door open, stepped out and walked towards the entrance of the restaurant. The restaurant was classy and seemingly quite expensive even from the outside. When B.B. entered the waiter approached her and greeted her with a small bow then he led her to a table near the end of the room. Frankly speaking, B.B. had arrived a little early from the time she had agreed to meet him but to her surprise and somehow relief Colin was already there glancing over the menu as he waited her to arrive. As soon as he saw her approaching he dropped his menu on the table, stood up and pulled a chair out for her, as a perfect gentleman would. B.B said nothing just slid herself into the seat opposite Colin and ordered a drink from the waiter who was waiting patiently beside the table. The waiter gave her a node and left them to bring B.B's drink.
There was a moment of silence then Colin cleared his throat and raised his eyes up to meet BB's."Thank you for coming." He began running his finger nervously around the rim of his glass. Something was clearly bothering him.
"Yeah, yeah… now get to the point, I don't have all day." B.B. demanded her voice impatient and clipped.
Colin swallowed hard and started talking."For the last four days, C.C. had been avoiding me at all costs, like I was the plague or whatever. The few rare times I managed to see her were while Maxwell or his pathetic wife with the horrible voice were inside the room and even then we hardly exchanged two words before she walked away making up some excuse of why she couldn't stay. I don't know what to do…" He leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath. "I need your help."
"I'm surrounded by idiots." B.B. hissed through her teeth.
Colin could feel his palms starting to sweat."I…I tried but…I just…"
"Save your pathetic excuses for someone who cares." B.B. interrupted him before he had a chance to finish his sentence. "Now shut your mouth and listen to me very carefully, tonight is the birthday party one of the Sheffield-Babcock Productions biggest investors, C.C. will be there."
"How can you be so sure?" Colin asked, trying desperately to understand.
"My daughter may be acting morally lately, but I believe that she still has some common sense inside her when it comes to business, C.C. knows her presence at the party is good for business, so she will be there… and so are you."
Colin remained silent for a while thinking about what B.B. had just said to him. "But I cant go to the party, I'm not invited." He finally replied, pointing out the obvious or at least he thought so.
B.B. rolled her eyes and she handed him a delicately decorated pale blue envelope. "Here" She said.
"What is this?" He asked raising an eyebrow. Colin knew it was a stupid question to ask because he had seen plenty of envelopes like this one before and they all held the same thing inside, but he just couldn't believe his eyes so he asked her.
"This is your key to success …an invitation to the party." B.B. answered watching his fingers quickly tearing open the envelope and pulling out the card.
His eyes traveled to the top, where the name of the receiver had been written. To his surprise in delicate-looking writing was... his name. "But …how?" He asked staring at the party invitation card in his hands in disbelief while re-reading his name several times to make sure he had read it right.
She chuckled at his naïve question before answering, "I'm B.B. Babcock, my dear there is nothing I can't do or get… well, except of one thing and this is why I need your help with it. Now go, the party is in few hours and you need to get ready."
Colin didn't need to be told twice, within a second he pushed his chair away from the table and stood up. "Right" He said then picked up his coat from the back of his chair and took a few steps towards the door, but stopped when a sudden thought popped in his mind. "What if she brings that servant with her?"
"Oh, I count on that." B.B. answered as a devilish smile crossed her face.

A few hours later in the master bedroom C.C. sat in front of her dresser finishing up the last touches of her makeup. Her silky blond hair were pulling up into an elegant bun, with a few strands hanging loose around her face, the deep red painted lips protruding over her porcelain face where her dark blue eyes were covered perfectly with the light gray eye shadow.
She applied an extra layer of mascara and added a little soft pink blush to her cheeks and for the finishing touch she put on the earrings and the single heart necklace that Niles had bought her for her birthday. Then zipped up her dress halfway in the back and quickly checked her reflection in the full length mirror to make sure everything was in place. C.C. knew that she looked hot, wearing a sexy floor length dress that fit her figure perfectly, hugging the natural curves of her hips like a second skin while the "V" shaped neckline showing just enough cleavage to make Niles weak at the knees.
With a very self-satisfied smile on her lips she walked over to the closet and opened the doors trying to find a pair of shoes to go with the dress. Thankfully in that early stage of pregnancy she was still allowed to wear her much-loved high heels from time to time, but she knew that she would have to get rid of them for flats soon. After a few minutes of searching she grabbed a pair of simple black leather high heels and began sliding them on.
In the living room Niles clicked open his silver antique cigarette case and pulled out a cigar before he tucked it into the breast pocket of his black tuxedo as he waited for C.C. to finish getting dressed in the master bedroom since she had wanted to surprise him with her dress which she had purchased earlier that day.
During the last few days he still hadn't accepted what his wife had agreed to do, but she had come to an agreement with him that she wouldn't allow the whole situation with Colin to get in between their relationship.
"Did you call Maxwell and tell him that we're going to meet him and Fran there?" C.C asked from the top of the stairs just before she lifted up the front section of her dress and started to step down.
"Yes, my queen." Niles answered turning around to face her. "Now would you please do me the honor and get your fat ass…oh…" That was as far as Niles managed to go before the sight of his beautiful wife coming down the stairs left him speechless.
Each delicate step C.C. took occurred in what seemed like slow motion. The red dress she was wearing looked even better than he had imagined it would. He opened and closed his mouth twice before he spoke again. "Wow…"
C.C. smiled at his reaction as she closed the distance between. She knew she was beautiful, but the way Niles reacted to her made her feel stunning...something she hadn't quite gotten used to yet due to her incredible self-consciousness."See something you like?" C.C. asked as she wrapped her arms around his neck and placed a peck on his lips. Although deep down she already knew the answer she couldn't resist the urge to ask him.
"Actually I do." He said with a teasing flirty grin, something that made a deep blush appear on her cheeks almost instantly. His arm automatically wrapped around her naked back and he drew her body close to his until her breasts were crushed against his chest.
"You look absolutely breath taking tonight." He complemented, traveling his eyes up and down her body in amazement. Over the years Niles had seen C.C. clothed in so many different colors, types, and styles of dresses and each dress was more breathtaking than the last one, but this one was by far his favorite. Of course, it wasn't only the dress she was wearing that made her look so stunning, it was something about her, something like a glow.
"Thank you." C.C. replied with an impish grin, trailing her fingers up his chest and around his tie before adjusted it."You are looking quite handsome as well, but could you behave for a moment and zip me up? The zipper got stuck." She explained pointing at the back of her dress.
Niles chuckled and motioned for C.C. to turn around, so he could reach the zipper.
"Uh-oh," C.C. heard Niles exclaiming behind her.
C.C. arched an eyebrow questionly. "What?"
"How many times have I told you not to wear a dress when there is a full moon? The hairs on your back get stuck in the zipper." Niles answered sarcastically.
She was ready to throw him a good zinger in return, but she totally forgot it when she felt his warm fingers brushing the smoothly skin of her back and his hot breath tickling her bare neck sending her goose-bumps all the way down her spine, something which didn't go unnoticed by Niles. He loved knowing that after all these months; he could still have that effect on her.
C.C. could hear the zip going down instead of up, but was too distracted by the small kisses he was placing along her shoulder and up her neck until he got to her ear.
"You don't play fair, I told you to behave." Somehow she found the strength to say.
"And since when do I listen to you?" Niles asked in a mocking tone.
"Ooh, deep." C.C. returned in the same mocking tone that Niles had used, making him chuckle.
"Come on now darling, you know better than anyone that I never play fair…" He whispered into her ear in a husky, full of need tone of voice before nuzzled his nose into the crook or her neck, causing a moan of pleasure to escape from her lips. "…plus you can't blame me, I'm a man, I have needs. You should know how it is …you had been one for years." He added, putting his best serious face on and trying hard not to laugh at the expression on her face.
"Oh shut up, man-whore." She murmured hitting him playfully on the arm, the love and adoration obvious in her eyes.
Niles couldn't help the bright smile which covered his face as he heard C.C's words. "I love when you talk dirty to me." He said huskily, before leaned forward capturing her lips with his once again.
C.C. was the first to pull away a few minutes later, glassy eyed and gasping for breath. Although she wanted him so very badly, she knew that she couldn't give in to her desires."Niles we need to leave this house right now before I change my mind, grab you, throw you onto the couch and have my way with you."
"Jeez, Caca, you make it sound like a bad thing." Niles replied with a smirk making C.C. rolling her eyes.
"It is, because you know as well as I do that we can't be late." C.C. answered while smoothing down the fabric of her dress. Then she saw the disappointment in his puppy eyes and quickly added,"Oh, for God's sake, Butler boy, don't look at me like that. I swear I'll make it up to you later, but for now would you please stop acting like a horny teenager and just zip me up?"
Though Niles hated to admit it, he knew C.C. was right, so he obeyed. "There," He said once he had got the zipper all the way up then he held his arm out for her to take, "Ready, Madam?" Niles asked in a very professional tone. She nodded and laced her arm through his letting him escorting her into the beginning of what they both thought would be a wonderful, peaceful night …they had no idea how wrong they were.
