Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 679

After what felt like an eternity, noise from outside broke the silence. Tarquin hurried out, just in time to catch Elysia making her way to the bedroom door.

Her hair was damp, draping loosely around her shoulders, and she was wearing one of his shirts, which barely covered her, leaving her legs entirely exposed.

She wasn't particularly tall, but her figure was striking, with long, straight legs that were quite the sight.

And at this moment, incredibly enticing.

This was the ultimate seduction in a shirt.

Tarquin felt his throat go dry, swallowing subconsciously without saying a word, as Elysia dashed into the bedroom.

Knowing she was shy, Tarquin fetched a hairdryer from the bathroom and knocked on the door, announcing, "I'm coming in to dry your hair."

Upon entering, as expected, Elysia had covered her legs with the blanket, sitting on the bed drying her hair, "Just leave it here, I'll do it myself later." Tarquin didn't bite, instead, his gaze lingered on her a bit longer, admiring her in his shirt, his thoughts wandering...

He made another swallowing motion, walking over to the bed to start drying her hair.

Elysia wanted to protest, her lips moved but then she gave up, knowing she couldn't stop him.
