Sample: "To put it in layman's terms, Mr. Sinclair, Mrs. Sinclair, on the death of your uncle," looking at Gabriel, "Your husband," looking at the woman, "He has willed that the plantation and all its assets automatically become the property of the oldest living male of the family. Mr. Gabriel Sinclair is that person as you, Mrs. Sinclair, have no children. "I'm the new owner, Josh; my uncle died and I'm the sole surviving male." Josh was goggle eyed, and it got even better for him. "Your whole family is to come to the plantation to live. Mother will employ your mother in the house, I will employ your father, and the kids will be educated as well."Josh couldn't take it all in, his best friend, his only white friend was going to be his savior. He knew he would do anything for Gabriel now. What he didn't realise was what the anything would entail. "We have so much to do, Josh, it would be good to be able to talk in bed as well." Josh wasn't stupid. "Will that be in between kisses and whatever else you have planned?" He was grinning and Gabriel was as well, before getting very serious. "I've never felt I could say this before, Josh, but now I can. I love you..." "I love you, Gabriel, and I'll do that as often as you want, but know I want to marry and have children."
