Chapter 168

Lying down in the bed together had been one of the most awkward things that either one of them had ever experienced. The tension was so thick that it could have been cut with a knife.

“Is lying in bed with a man always this awkward?” she asked softly as she turned to face Travis, careful not to touch him.

That comment struck him as odd, but he tried to make a joke anyway. “I don’t know, I’ve never been in bed with a man before. Besides, you were married.”

She still was married, but she hated to focus on that. “Yeah, but we never slept in the same bed together.”

His eyebrow rose. “Never?” That was supposed to be one of the major perks of putting a ring on it. The fact that you could go to bed and reach over whenever you wanted to either be close or, if you were feeling the need, fuck her until you fell back asleep.

“Nope.” She shook her head.

The sound of her hair moving against the sheet was loud in the stillness of the room.
