In no time, he effortlessly aroused Melissaâs desire.
She turned around and ki*sed him passionately, never approaching this matter with indifference.
He was her husband, a man she found charming, and she desired him deeply.
After a few days without intimacy, their lovemaking was more intense.
It was nearly midnight when they finished.
Melissa nestled against his chest, gently urging him to take a shower.
Marcus ki*sed her before heading to the bathroom.
When he came out of the bathroom, he found Melissa still awake, leaning against the headboard.
The intensity of their lovemaking had left her feeling drained and vulnerable, and her appearance reflected her exhaustion.
Marcus leaned in, questioning softly, âWhy arenât you sleeping?â
Melissa lifted her head, whispering softly, âIâve arranged tomorrowâs flight.
Itâs best we maintain a low profile for the Waston familyâs funeral.
â
Marcus nodded in agreement.
âYes, we must avoid drawing attention to ourselves.
â
He ran his fingers through her silky hair, tilting his head.
âArenât there other matters you wish to discuss?â
Melissa wanted to say something but stopped after a second thought.
Marcus smiled teasingly.
âWhy the sudden reserve? You werenât shy at all when you were moani
in bed just now.
â
Melissa bit her lip.
âMarcus!â
He silenced her with a ki*s, whispering softly, âI enjoy your boldness, Melissa.
Itâs something I truly cherish.
â
The two indulged in lively banter for some time.
Eventually, Melissa cautiously broached the question, weighing it on her mind.
âIs the child truly not Mr.
Wastonâs? Does that meanâ¦
Could there be a possibility of him and Jessie reuniting?â
Marcus regarded her silently.
Melissa grasped his arm, speaking softly, âI just worry about Jessie.
I donât imply anything beyond that.
Donât dwell on it, Marcus.
â
Marcus smiled.
âI havenât dwelled on it too much.
Iâm simply considering the best way to tell you the truth.
â
Melissa fell silent for a moment, contemplating Marcusâ words.
She believed she grasped his implication.
Indeed, the child wasnât Albertâs after all.
