The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 13

After Abigail finished washing up, she placed the blankets on the couch and

snuggled in when a knock came at the door. She jerked upright with a

bounce as she whispered urgently to Sean, who was in bed, “Did you lock the

earlier and would like you to try some. I’ll be coming in now if you’re still

bed while Dahlia was passing through the corridor into the bedroom area.
