Maeve continued to massage Byron's injured knee in silence, her gaze distant and unfocused.
When she finished, she was about to tell him he was all set when suddenly, his warm breath brushed against her cheek. Before she could react, his cool lips pressed firmly against hers. Byron cupped the back of her head, his dark, intense eyes locking onto her shocked expression.
His tongue easily slipped past her unguarded lips, claiming her mouth with a forceful, unyielding kiss.
His kiss, like everything about him, was domineering and relentless, driven purely by his own desires.
In the past, his kisses had been just that-kisses, But this time, his hand slid down from her car to her neck, his long fingers lightly parting the collar of her nightgown.
The teasing, suggestive touch made Maeve's cheeks burn with embarrassment. She tried to push him away, but he effortlessly pinned her wrists behind her back with one hand. Half-kneeling between his knees, her neck held firm by his grip, she felt trapped in his embrace.

position made her feel overwhelmed with shame, her mind going blank.
It was only when Maeve began to struggle for breath that that Byron finally released her slightly, a low chuckle escaping as he looked into her embarrassed, tear-filled eyes. "I told you, I'm a a normal man," he he murmured, his dark eyes glinting with a predatory edge. "Did you really expect a normal man to act any differently?"

"If you can't even control your basic urges, what kind of normal man are you?" she snapped, frustrated.

"Why would I want to do that?" Maeve's heart skipped a beat, her voice trembling as she tried to argue. "We're just married in name. Do we really need to be doing this?" Just last night, he had talked about their future divorce, and now he was talking about fulfilling marital duties. She thought. Does he want a divorce or not?" Byron raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who says a married couple in name can't do these things?"
"I say so!" Maeve blurted out, quickly pushing his hand away before rushing out of the master bedroom in a panic.
