Matthew wanted to sleep with Daniela, but she bowed out saying she was tired. Alone in her room, Daniela decided not to make Mason wait any longer than New Year's Eve. She would once again be in New York spending time with him. She would use her pregnancy as an excuse to stay away from Matthew and she knew that Jake and Hayley would back her up.
She enjoyed being with Jake and Hayley. As she got into bed, she felt the tiny bump in her stomach. "Baby, you are going to have the most wonderful life. You will have a mommy and daddy who love you."
Daniela pulled the covers over her body and fell into a deep sleep. She dreamed of Mason and Jake fucking her.
Mason wanted to be with her, but he knew she was probably exhausted. He didn't know if he could stand waiting until April for her decision. Mason would keep the engagement ring near him during their visit next week in the hopes that she would choose him and he could propose.
Mason lay in bed for quite a while thinking about Margo. He wasn't worried about her, he just wished he could change things. Margo had gone round the bend because of him. He knew that Blake would take care of her. He asked Blake not to kill her, Blake said he couldn't make any promises but would take his request into account.
Before he went to sleep, Mason called his parents and siblings and wished them all a Happy Christmas. They would miss him this year but would see him after the New Year. Lady Catherine Chadwell was looking forward to meeting her soon to be daughter-in-law. She hadn't seen Daniela since she was a child. She told Mason that she would like them to get married in England. Mason agreed. The castle was lovely, but he would leave the decision to Daniela.
He admitted to his mother that he loved Daniela. Mason told Lady Chadwell what he wanted to do to her and she laughed, "You are definitely your mother's son. I'm so proud of you. I'm sure that Daniela will love you for who you are. Remember she is a slave. You must talk to Jake and Matthew to see what her limits are. She will be your wife and submissive after you marry so you need to start treating her as such. She will have safe words and you need to respect them."
Mason said that he understood. "I've been speaking with Madame and she's shared with me some things about Daniela, the rest she told me, I would have to learn from Jake and Hayley."
"She's right. Son, I hear in your voice that you really love Daniela. She will be your wife and she needs to be treated with the utmost respect. She will be part of our family and with her carrying Matthew's child that will give us more power in the family. For Daniela she moves up in life; no more cooking or cleaning for her. We welcome her into our family as our daughter. Just be patient and you'll soon be very happy. I can see Daniela kneeling at your feet." Catherine Chadwell said laughing over the phone.
"Thank you Mother." Mason said as he yawned. "I better get some sleep."
"Your father and I wish you a Happy Christmas. We want you to know that we are proud of you. Goodnight Mason." Lady Chadwell said hanging up.
Her husband was in bondage beside her. She smacked his ass, "Your son has done well. Get ready my dear because I plan to sit on your face so you may give me a good Christmas morning lick."

Cook prepared Christmas breakfast, which was a buffet. The alternate staff kept things hot as members of the family came down to eat.
Matthew and Helen were the first one's down. Everyone knew to be up by noon so that the Christmas presents would be opened. They were all in their pajamas and robes. Brandon and Daniel were down next. Matthew and Helen took their son-in-laws aside. "We only have one person here who hasn't been part of the ritual so he cannot participate in what goes on this evening."
Brandon spoke up, "I've taken care of his room and it will be locked when he goes up to bed. It will not reopen until early in the morning."
Daniel added, "I'll make sure he's in bed by midnight. Quinn will put something into his glass and he'll be ready to go to bed. If my spies are correct, I think Daniela is going to pick Mason and then he will be a part of all of this in the New Year. Too bad it wasn't sooner."
"Yes." Said Brandon, "I'd like to have a taste of that cock. I've heard it's very nice."
Samantha came downstairs, looking fetching in her long black nightgown with a floral robe covering her. She greeted her family and looked outside. "I can't wait to go play in the snow."
"The skies are ready for this afternoon. Just be home in time for dinner at 6:30." Helen reminded them.
Daniela came into the dining room. She looked quite cute in a silk Asian inspired robe that covered her short nightgown. She wore slippers that were in the shape of rabbits with floppy ears on the side.
Samantha put her arm around Daniela's waist, "We know you've chosen Mason. When will you tell the poor boy and let him off the hook?"
"You'll find out when I announce." She said laughing.
"Are you looking forward to tonight?" Samantha asked conspiratorially.
"Yes, I am." Daniela said blushing a deep red.
"I plan to taste some of that pregnant pussy. I know that Daniel wants to fuck you badly." Samantha said and hugged Daniela.
Mason came into the room and Brandon said loud enough for everyone to hear, "Welcome Mason to our Christmas festivities. Have you spoken to your parents?"
"Yes, I spoke to them before I went to sleep. They are fine. I'll see them in the new year." Mason said as he went to Daniela and kissed her cheek. "Did you sleep well?"
"Like a baby." She said kissing his lips.
"Good." He took a plate and helped himself to food. He and Daniela sat down as Jake and Hayley came downstairs together. Jake was wearing plaid pajama bottoms and a black bathrobe while Hayley was dressed in a pink long nightgown with a La Perla white silk charmeuse short robe. Jake asked her what she wanted for breakfast and he got two plates and prepared them.
Hayley sat next to Daniela, "Where's your father?" She asked.
"He'll be down in a few minutes." Daniela said and then whispered, "I think he bought something for the baby and is wrapping it."
Quinn and Jonah came downstairs dressed as twins in blue pajama pants with Santa on them and a Christmas robe with trees that blinked on and off.
Denise and Frederick came into the dining room and they were all there. Matthew wished everyone a Merry Christmas. Laughter was the order of the day.
When everyone had finished eating, they all went into the living room where the biggest tree that Jake had ever seen stood. There was a mountain of gifts. Frederick and Cook passed out each person's presents.
Matthew and Helen had given the staff their bonuses two weeks earlier and their vacation with pay. Frederick and Cook received theirs but got special gifts from the family.
For Frederick, he was given twelve hours on the family plane to use whenever he wished to wherever he wished and use of any one of the family vacation homes for a week. Cook was given the same, but also gold Patek Philippe watch, which was a gift from Hayley. He kissed Hayley's cheek and thanked her, his voice choked.
Frederick presented his daughter with his gift. He gave her a beautiful christening gown given to him by the British Royal family that Daniela had worn. Frederick had worked for the King before coming to work for the Cassidy's. "I am looking forward to my first grandchild." He said kissing his daughter's cheek. "I am so proud of you."
Mason watched Frederick and Frederick gazed at him. After all gifts had been opened Mason took Frederick aside, "If your daughter chooses me I'd like your permission to ask for her hand and...I'd like your blessing." Mason said nervously.
"I've learned that in the past you were a bit of a rebel, but you've been working very hard to change. As long as you treat my daughter with respect and remember that she is no longer a slave, but your wife and submissive, and that the child she bears you will raise as your own, then you have my blessing. But make no mistake that if you hurt her, even if you are a Cassidy, I will make you pay for it." Frederick said seriously.
"Thank you and I have every intention of making Daniela very happy." Mason said and they shook hands.
