"I'll have plenty of time for stories later."
Sophie was having none of it. As she stood up to leave, Colby pulled her into his arms, sweeping her off her feet. A frown crossed Sophie's face. "Colby! Put me down!"
"Let go of my wife? I'd never let go, not even if it killed me."
"Are you being a jerk on purpose?"
"Well, I never claimed to be a perfect gentleman."
Sophie's face was flushed. Colby carried her to the bedroom and carefully laid her down on the bed.
The kiss they shared had already ignited a flame in Colby's groin. He leaned down to kiss Sophie's cheek, his voice hoarse, "Alright, Sophie, just let me stay with you tonight. I won't touch you."
"Not touch me? What do you call this?"
Sophie pushed Colby away, turning her back to him in a huff. Colby then wrapped his arms around her from behind, whispering in her ear, "Just a kiss, nothing more."
Sophie felt like she had heard this line before. "Fine, but if you touch me tonight, you're never sharing my bed again."
Sophie could feel Colby's body stiffen.
Feeling victorious over having teased Colby, Sophie closed her eyes, ready to sleep.
Colby held Sophie even tighter, struggling to control his desires. Sophie smelt so good and felt soft in his arms. He gave Sophie a final kiss on her neck and found it difficult to fall asleep.
The next morning, Sophie woke up to find Colby still by her side, watching her sleep.
"You scared me! What are you doing?"
"I couldn't sleep."
Colby's voice was hoarse, tinged with a hint of melancholy. He held Sophie and couldn't find sleep at all. Having taken three cold showers throughout the night, his body now carried the fresh scent of shower gel.
"Sophie..."
As Colby moved closer, Sophie sensed the sensual tension and immediately pushed him away, her face turning red. "I haven't even brushed my teeth yet."
"You always smell sweet."
Ignoring everything, Colby cupped Sophie's face and pressed his lips to hers. Her lips were sweet, her breath fresh. Sophie had always been clean. She never went to bed dirty.
"Mm..."
