61 Still Within Reach

For the entire time Adrian was carrying Cassidy on his shoulder, he had steeled his firm grip on her and kept dodging her attempts to knock him out, mustering a straight face all the while.

His wife is indeed one wild Amazonian woman.

As long as she wants it - no matter how small or shallow it is, she will do everything she can to get it. This time, she demands to drink more. She continues to try to squirm out of his hold by doing every idea she manages to come up with at her moment of drunken stupor - 

Slamming her fists on his back, kicking her feet around in an attempt to reach his abdomen, and even shouting in his ears.

On their way back to the mansion, that's all she ever did. In the end, though, all of her attempts were futile. He dealt with her like how a mature grown-up would to a stubborn toddler, never faltering in his resolve to get her to bed.
