q contractually yours

Le baiser devenait de plus en plus passionné alors qu'il sentait son corps chaud et souple pressé contre son torse. Il n'arrivait pas à croire combien elle était douce. Il était plus doux cette fois-ci, faisant l'amour avec elle à un rythme lent et langoureux, s'arrêtant de temps en temps pour observer l'expression sur son visage. Maud était... transportée. Elle ne sentait plus le tissu des draps sous elle. Un instant, elle flottait dans l'air, bercée par des nuages en barbe à papa. L'instant d'après, elle s'était incorporée dans une petite embarcation, tanguant au gré des vagues. Son parfum l'enveloppait. Il était sur elle, utilisant ses bras pour soutenir son poids et éviter de l'écraser. Elle se blottit davantage contre lui, en sécurité et à l'aise, enroulée dans sa chaleur. Maud avait toujours admiré l'endurance de Ned, mais ce soir, il s'est surpassé. Au milieu d'une extase accablante, Maud trouvait encore la présence d'esprit pour aborder le sujet qu'elle voulait discuter. 'Les factures médicales de mon père…' Ned s'est arrêté. Il a froncé les sourcils en regardant ces yeux implorants. 'Ce sera réglé d'ici la fin de la journée de travail de demain', a-t-il dit avec une pointe de sévérité dans la voix. Maud a expiré. ****** Elle est une étudiante universitaire de 21 ans qui rêve de devenir journaliste. Il est l'héritier de la famille Ruell et président d'un empire commercial. Elle a les yeux pétillants et est vivante, une femme toujours optimiste. Quand la vie lui lance un défi, elle le relève avec brio. Il est l'archétype de l'alpha mâle, agressif et dominateur. Doté de cerveau et de muscles, il écrase ses ennemis et dirige son entreprise d'une main de fer. Les deux n'auraient jamais croisé leur chemin sans un cruel coup du sort. Le monde de Maud a été bouleversé quand son père a été hospitalisé suite à un accident de voiture. Les frais médicaux étaient astronomiques. Ned Ruell lui a offert une solution. Le prix : devenir sa femme de contrat. La nuit, il consommait leur mariage mais appelait le nom d'une autre femme. Qui était-elle ? Pourquoi Ned a-t-il épousé Maud s'il était amoureux de quelqu'un d'autre ? Maud était sa femme en droit, mais elle n'avait pas le droit de poser ces questions. Puis un jour, la femme est apparue devant elle...

"So?" "Without going out." "Hm," she nodded. "You just slept and ate all day." "And?" "Well… that's not very healthy, is it?" His lips curved into a wry smile. "No. Not healthy." "I don't want to become a widower at twenty-five." Lyca's eyebrow lifted. "Are you cursing me?" She fought the urge to laugh. What widower? This man's honesty is sometimes infuriating. "I am tired," she said. "From doing nothing?" She nodded. "I am saving energy." "To do nothing?" She looked at him and didn't miss the concern in his eyes. "To do you." She uttered and immediately laughed when she saw his face reddened. ......................................... One lazy heiress. One hardworking illegitimate soldier. Two opposite worlds.
