Love At The Wrong Table

Beatrix finished speaking and stepped back, giving Emmanuel a playful wink. She was curious and wondered, I bet Mackenzie, who’s usually so reserved, would moan. Or maybe not?

Emmanuel couldn’t help but roll his eyes at her antics. He couldn’t quite grasp what she was thinking, musing, Young people always have such dirty thoughts. It’s scary!

He ignored her and entered Mackenzie’s room, asking, “It’s late. Why haven’t you go to bed yet?”

Still immersed in her work, Mackenzie glanced at the time and realized it was past her bedtime. She rubbed her tired eyes and said, “I need to prepare for the Chamber of Commerce’s review of new member qualifications tomorrow. It’s crucial to make a strong case for approval.”

Emmanuel nodded and reassured her, “I’ve reviewed the rules and standards. There shouldn’t be any issues with your family’s assets and influence.”

The woman nodded, but a flicker of concern lingered in her eyes. With the Summerton family turning against them and her family having offended the Tanner family of Onza, she couldn’t afford to be overly optimistic. “Well, you and Beatrix should come with me tomorrow!” she suggested.

“Alright! Let’s get some rest and tackle tomorrow with full energy!” Emmanuel suggested to his wife. He instinctively began to undress for a bath, but Mackenzie stood up and gently stopped him.

He paused and was curious about his wife’s intentions.

She stopped him from undressing and pushed him outside. She whispered, “Beatrix will stay with us for a while. Maybe we shouldn’t do it for the time being.”

“But…” He innocently queried, “We could do it even at the Quillen residence, so why not now? We’re legally married!”
