He grinned a slow devilish smile of invitation.
‘Oh, my God!’she whispered again with even more feeling as she realised how close she had come to accepting the invitation in his sinful eyes. She took a deep breath and thought, Do not go there. Her eyes flickered towards the figure in the bed—again!
Once was enough—actually it was too much!

‘What?’ he responded with an innocent look and a seemingly mystified shrug that intensified her murderous glare. ‘Unless you have forgotten, we are married.’
