Marrying the Man in the Dark

Just as she closed the bedroom door, a ‘click’ sound was heard, and the bedroom light turned off along with it.

In the darkness, Damien’s warm body pressed against her, pinning her to the door. His firm lips passionately kissed her in the dark, “Dear.”

Cherise’s heart fluttered. “You, you, you…” she said meekly.

“Why don’t we try for a third child tonight?”

Startled by his words, she stumbled back a few steps and vehemently opposed, “No!”

“Why not?”

The man chuckled softly; then he approached her again, his large hand about to slip under Cherise’s skirt. Glaring at his form in the dark, Cherise firmly pushed his hands away. “No means no!”

Damien furrowed his brow as he went to turn on the wall lamp. The dim light cast shadows of his figure on the ground. “Why?”

He used to behave like this with her before, but she had never reacted so strongly…

Her strong refusal left Damien somewhat puzzled.

Under the dim lights of the wall lamp, Cherise’s face turned as red as a shrimp. “No means no…Let’s… let’s wait a few days.”

The man’s frown deepened as he asked seriously, “Why?”
