Dorothy was at a loss for words.
Five days of rest? Since when did missed time come with a rain check?
But before she could voice her protest, he was already inside, thrusting into her with a whirlwind of urgency.
At first, he was gentle, mindful of his size, but as passion took over, his control slipped. His hands gripped her waist, causing Dorothy to wince and instinctively try to escape the discomfort, only to be relentlessly pulled back beneath him.
Exhausted to begin with, Dorothy found herself breathless and powerless under his relentless pursuit until, in a fit of frustration, she sank her teeth into the flesh of his collarbone.
The pain seemed to spur him on even more, his vigor unwaning.
After a night tangled in the sheets, Dorothy spent the better part of the following day in bed, only to be roused in the evening by a call from Karen.
"Hello?" Dorothy croaked, her voice a raspy shadow of its usual self.
Karen paused for a good half minute before saying, "Everett really did a number on you, huh? Are you sure he's supposed to be recuperating in Swevia Country?"
Dorothy was speechless.
"Dorothy, you need to put your foot down! If this keeps up, you'll be weak as hell by the time you get back."
Dorothy massaged her temples, feeling a throbbing headache brewing. "And when you try to stop Jeffrey, does he listen?"
"No, not really."
It struck a chord with Karen.
"It's not just about how he treats you; it's about what you feel in your heart. Do you want to spend your life with him, day in, day out, for decades?"
"Well... if he stays true, then yes, I do."
Karen did not need to sugarcoat things with Dorothy. She could speak her mind freely.
Dorothy understood Karen's hesitation and anxiety, the fear that Jeffrey's feelings might be fleeting.
"Karen, then say yes! Marriage isn't just about signing a document. Life is long and unpredictable. If you both are thrilled at the thought of being together, take the leap. What's the worst that can happen? Divorce is the bottom line, but at least you'll have loved. No regrets! But if you turn him down now and it affects your relationship, years down the line, you might wish you had said yes."

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
