So she allowed him to proceed. His hand slipped beneath her white robe.
After awhile, Melissa blushed.
An unfamiliar desire gleamed in Marcus eyes. He lowered his voice.
Have you been waiting for me? He wanted to do it but he also had to voice it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMelissa couldnt handle his teasing.
She simply arched towards him, murmuring softly, Marcus, no more talk.
He dipped down to kis her. Afterwards, he asked, Should | carry you to bed?
Melissa remained silent.
Instead, she looped her arms around his slender waist and loosened his belt, leaving him breathless.
Marriage had its perks, and Marcus had one of the best nights in his life.
After their intimacy, even though Marcus wasnt entirely satisfied, he stopped, considering Melissas comfort.
They stayed put, lounging on the sofa and chatting occasionally.
Ina hushed tone, Melissa remarked, | think Jessie wont be back in the next couple of years. It seems like
shes avoiding Mr. Waston.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMarcus had been moping but, at this, he managed a faint smile.
He said, Whats up with Albert? He obviously cares for Jessie. Why tie the knot with another woman? Even after marriage, hes still hung up on Jessie, and his wife keeps stirring the pot. Poor Jessie, what can she do now? As Marcus spoke, he playfully tweaked Melissas nose and went on, saying, lessies definitely avoiding Albert. Truth is, she hasnt forgotten him. After all, they shared a bed for three years. You cant just erase feelings like that.
His tone grew somber.
The two of us dont even sleep together as much as they did.
Damn! The more Marcus dwelled on it, the more uneasy he felt. He wanted to engage again but Melissa pushed against his shoulder, signaling she wasnt up for it. She quipped, Whos to blame, huh? Werent you the one who dumped me before, saying | wasnt up to par? Have you forgotten already?
Marcus felt a pang of regret.
He cupped her face, planting a kis, and murmured, You said we should let bygones be bygones.
Melissa returned the kis. Okay. Lets drop it. Were together now.
