"No I can't," she groused. The worst part about being fussed over was knowing there was reason for others to fuss over her. She was healthy enough, in good shape with a strong immune system, but she looked so fragile. The pregnancy wasn't easy though and all manner of things could happen when the mind disappeared without taking the body with it.<br/><br/>The limo pulled up and the security team let her out. All sorts of cars and trucks were parked around the place. The caterers and other staff she had hired for the evening had already arrived. No doubt her butler and chief housekeeper had things taken care of. Between the two of them and her head of security, not much went unnoticed or undone.<br/><br/>She accepted James's hand and smiled at him. "Thanks. I am going to check in with everyone and have some 'me time' before getting ready for the event. As long as you're ready to go when things start, I don't care what you do between now and then," she said. Though the words sounded a little callous, her tone was warm. She wanted him to relax and enjoy himself a bit before the stiffness and formality of the benefit took away the hominess of the manor and they were entertaining at least a few hundred people.<br/><br/>Leaning up, she planted a kiss on his cheek before turning away. The hairs on the back of her neck stood on end as she went to consult with the staff. It wasn't necessarily a<em>bad</em>feeling so she didn't have security go scope out the place. Once she'd finished she headed up the stairs towards her bedroom.
