I got into an argument with Ben, as he don't want me to go out hunting with the guys since he found out that I might be pregnant. "Ben stop it, I don't even know if I'm pregnant for sure and anyway, there's nothing wrong with me going with you guys. Its better than being watched the whole time by you know who," I whispered out.

In the end he let me go with them, but I had to promise to take things easy until I know for sure. I agree happily. I would do anything to get away from Conner's searching eyes. A few times he tried to talk to me, but I would walk away whenever I see him come closer. He have hurt me deeply. How could he even think that I would jump into bed with another man after our night together.

We spend the day in the woods and fooled around most of the time. While I help Ben with his traps, the guys went a little deeper into the woods and came back about an hour later, showing off the massive melons they found, as well as beans and pumpkin. My eyes nearly popped out when I saw the pumpkin, as it was always one of my favourites. They even pulled out some of the plants to re-plant close to the waterfall.

The second we stepped into the clearing of our camp, Conner came forward and I looked at Ben who shrugs his shoulders, so I looked back at Conner who was getting closer. "Where the hell have you been all day," he shouts at me. "Excuse me, but who the hell do you think you are." I was immediately furious at him. The bloody cheek of the man to throw demands at me. "I am still your husband and I was worried about you."

I walk towards Ben, then turn back to Conner. "As you can see I'm perfectly fine and don't need any rescue from you." Unfortunately, at that moment I get the nauseating feeling again and ran to the trees, where I got violently sick. I take the bandana from my neck and wiped my face. "What is wrong with you," I hear from behind me and nearly jumped. I turn around slowly and looked at Conner. "I don't think its any of your concern, but there's nothing wrong with me, maybe something I ate." He looks at my face a few seconds longer, then nods before walking away and I sigh in relief.

I made my way toward Ben and he asked me if I'm ok, so I nod my head. I'm so sick and tired of Conner's games. The one moment he would act like a man who really cares for me and wham, he would turn into an asshole again. Ben helps me to sort out the food and together we walked to the waterfall and sit with our bare feet in the water. Oh man, this water feels so good. I closed my eyes as I tried to get rid of a headache. This morning it was only a light pain in my head, but with the vomiting and confrontation with Conner, it got worse.

"Are you ok," Ben asked me, so I told him that I have a headache, but didn't want to take a chance with pills if I might be pregnant. "Let me massage it away for you. I promise you that you will enjoy it." I look at Ben and he winks. "Don't turn around, but Conner looks like he would just love to drown me, that's how pissed off he looks."

"You know what, he has already accused me of having an affair with you, so let him have more to say, I don't care." Ben smiles broadly and moved in behind me, so that I sit between his legs. Luckily Ben's partner is not the jealous type and knows why we do this. "Ok, close your eyes and try to relax a bit." I did what he says and it was heaven when I felt his fingers massaging my temples. He starts moving down to my neck area and my shoulders," whispering close to my ear, "here comes the fun part."

I ignore his words and when he press his fingers to one specific part between my shoulder blades, I moaned out. "Oh gosh, this feels so good Ben." I hear him chuckle and the next moment I knew why. "What the hell are you doing." I open my eyes and groaned. Ben got up and pulled me with him, so now I'm standing between the two guys. I see Conner's eyes going to Ben's arms around me, but I had enough.

"What do you want Conner, because I don't recall us being buddies all of a sudden. I look around and saw that we have already attracted a crowd. I look back at Conner and waited for him to say something. "I just want to spend some time with my wife...alone." He gave Ben a dirty look before looking at me again.

"Oh, how nice of you to wanna spend time with me," I said sarcastically. "Sorry Conner, you had your chance and you have just ruined one of the best massages." He steps closer to me and I could feel Ben wrapping his arms more securely around my body. Conner's eyes have also seen the movement and at that moment I feared for Ben's life.

"Let me explain some things to you. You are still my wife until our contract ends and if you have read between the lines, our contract states that if we sleep together, that we will stay married." My eyes went  big as saucers at his words. "You can not do that, its your word against mine and if it comes out that we did indeed sleep together, I will say that you made me drunk." At my words, he storms off and I sagged my body against Ben. Luckily no one but Ben heard the last part of the conversation between us, as we talked in hushed tones, but still, everyone knew that we have problems.
