"What's there to be afraid of?" Ashton Heath looked at the panicked girl in his arms, a low chuckle escaping his lips as he pinched her chin and bit her lips gently, his voice husky. "Am I going to eat you? I'm just asking you to call me 'husband,' and you're this scared?"
"Ashton Heath..." Joanna Lawrence looked at him pitifully. "I'm so tired. I want to rest early tonight."
So, don't bother her!
Her small body couldn't handle his antics for now.
The man chuckled again, amused by her pitiful appearance, but also finding it funny. "I didn't say I was going to do anything. Or are you hinting that I should do something? Actually, after flying around all day, I'm tired too, and I want to rest early. But if you really want it, baby, I could..."
"No, I don't want to."
Joanna immediately covered his mouth with her hand. "Since I'm tired and you're tired, let's rest early. Hurry up and have someone send something up. I'll go take a bath first."
