Matthew did not ask further but passed the magazine directly to Selina.

Selina placed the magazine between them and said, "This is a barrier. Neither of us can cross it."

She thought that Matthew would agree in his usual mild manner, but she did not expect him to mutter, "Selina, you need a barrier when sleeping with your husband?"

Selina knew that when Matthew spoke in such a tone, he was not messing around.

She could only laugh and said, "Well, duh. I wouldn't be able to accommodate your desires at this point in time, remember? I had no choice but to come up with such an idea in order to keep your libido in check. Wouldn't this be more for your sake than mine?

Selina nodded her head simply.

That night, Selina didn't sleep well.

It was the first time in her life she would be sharing the same bed with a man, albeit having a book in between.

She could clearly feel his pheromones and hear the sound of his breathing.

With only a little stretch of her hand, she would be touching Matthew's body.

Moreover, she still had this fear, the fear that despite Matthew's promise to her, he could still be driven by his lust to do something to her.

Such an uneasy night was finally over.

Selina had no sleep at all throughout.
