Elysia tried to push Tarquin away, but couldn’t. She wanted to struggle, but knowing Evan was just outside, she dared not make a sound.

Outside the closet, her three little munchkins were wondering where their mommy had vanished to, while inside, Elysia was wrapped tightly in Tarquin’s arms, his lips demanding the sweet taste of hers.

Blossom had just returned from picking up a delivery.
