Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 1044

“Put in more effort?” Nathalie stammered, her cheeks flushed. “What exactly do you mean by that?”

She never would’ve guessed that Morris—the famously cold, distant, almost monk-like Morris—would turn into someone so wild and uninhibited after they got married. Was this really the same man?

Morris’s lips curled into a teasing smile. “I want to go seven rounds tonight…”

Nathalie’s eyes swept over him with obvious mischief. “You sure your body can handle that?”

“We won’t know until we try, will we?” Morris shot back, his eyes glinting with challenge.

Nathalie just stared at him, lost for words.

Outside, rain suddenly came pouring down, drumming against the window in a steady, hypnotic rhythm.

Inside, the air was thick with heat and longing.

The wind and rain seemed to wash away the world outside, leaving only the two of them tangled together.

By the time they finally collapsed onto the bed, they were both spent and breathless.

They lay side by side, gazing at each other. Morris’s eyes were soft, filled with a warmth that melted straight through her.

Nathalie couldn’t stop smiling.

“Want to go again?” she teased, nudging him playfully.

Morris’s hand drifted gently to her stomach. “I can’t. I have to look out for our baby, you know.”

A flicker of emotion passed through Nathalie’s eyes. “If you’re gentle, the baby will be just fine,” she murmured.

Morris froze, caught off guard.

Then he gave a little helpless smile, almost as if surrendering.
