205 The one

Elle climbed off him almost immediately after saying that one shocking word that had Sebastian falling into speechlessness. It was as though he totally did not expect what he had just heard. 

Too stunned that his usual impossibly fast reflex was helplessly delayed, he was unable to grab onto Elle on time when she successfully stepped away from him. But after what she had just blurted out, Sebastian knew there was no way he could hold back anymore. Not when his little wife was so blatantly seducing him like this. 

He was about to spring up from the couch when she turned around and faced him. Something in her eyes had halted him from what he was about to do. One look at her as she stood there, told him she was up to something.
