Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 656

Chapter 656

Across the street, after Elysia had tucked Emmett into bed, she hurried back to her own room for a quick shower. Stripping down, she caught sight of the red marks on her neck in the mirror, her cheeks burning with embarrassment. She wondered if it was the longing of her body as she got older or the fact that he was in her heart that made her nearly give herself to him tonight. If Emmett hadn't woken up suddenly, she might have crossed a line. She was surprised at how quickly her disciplined heart had become so restless. When he kissed her, she felt nervous, yet thrilled...

Elysia swallowed unconsciously, closing her eyes and tilting her face under the shower, hoping the water would calm her agitated heart. It took a while for her to cool down, reminding herself to keep in control. Even though they were fond of each other, they hadn't defined their relationship-it was definitely too soon for intimacy...

After getting ready for bed, Elysia checked on the kids again before finally laying down, by which time it was quite late. Out of habit, she glanced at her phone, finding several messages from him:
