Wendy reminded Stanley that they were divorced now.
Stanley hadn’t forgotten, but his hands remained steady. “You’re running a fever. I’m just trying to warm you up.”
Wendy scoffed. “Warming me up doesn’t require this. Is this how you warm up other women too?”
“Other women don’t grab my collar and rip my buttons off like you do. You started this.”

Her gaze flickered to his shirt–one button already missing, clearly her doing.
Wendy shoved against his chest. “Get off me!”
Stanley pinned her squirming hands against the mattress and kissed her cheek before she
could protest further.
He wasn’t stopping.
Wendy thrashed beneath him. “Stanley, we’re divorced! If you’re that desperate, go find Jessica! Though with your habit of juggling multiple women, you’d better get tested regularly–wouldn’t want to catch something nasty.”
Stanley laughed, though enraged. That sharp, familiar wit of hers hadn’t changed at all.
He gripped her chin. “I’ve never touched Jessica.”

Wendy woke to insistent knocking. Morning light filtered through the curtains.
After the sweaty ordeal last night, her fever had broken, leaving her body spent but healed.

Neither had stirred until…

The knocking continued.
Wendy shifted, while Stanley opened his eyes, fully awake.
“Someone’s at the door,” she whispered.
She tried to rise, but he gripped her soft waist firmly, stopping her. “Who is it?”

Wendy arched a brow. “Wow. Your charm even penetrates remote mountain villages, I see.
Impressive.”
Stanley shot her a warning look but called back, “I’ll be out soon.”
“Is your sister feeling better?”
Sister? Since when?

“My dad’s thrilled about your meeting today! He prepared a feast. We’ll wait for you!” Fiona chirped before her footsteps faded away.
Wendy propped herself up. “Care to explain, brother dear? Or do you make a habit of lying
