The First Time
“She couldn’t remember the last time her belly was this full.
“You seem very content. It is a good look on you.” Kristoff was propped against the headboard, his legs stretched out, his ankles crossed. He smiled at her, and she couldn’t help but return the expression.
“Yes, well, I was never allowed to be full while growing up.
Putting on weight was frowned upon, seeing as we were virgin brides.” When he didn’t respond she glanced over at him. A frown marred his expression, and she hoped she had...n’t angered him by speaking so bluntly. “I’m sorry. I need to learn to hold my tongue.”
“Stop it.” The fierce command had her sitting up and staring at him with wide eyes. He shook his head and closed his eyes. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to raise my voice. I just wish you wouldn’t apologize for speaking with me. I’m your husband, Veronica. I want you to be able to speak to me freely without the fear of punishment. I am not that type of husband, despite what you may have heard about me.”MoreLess
