Chapter 17

• After a fun day out catching a movie with her best friend Emily, Valerie pulled up to the grand Donovan mansion feeling refreshed. As she entered the lavish living room, her steps slowed at the sight of two impeccably dressed women sitting on the ornate sofas.
• Before Valerie could ask who they were, Michael's voice rang out from behind her. "Finally back home, wifey?"
• She turned to find her husband already clad in an exquisitely tailored black tuxedo that accentuated his powerful physique to perfection. A teasing lilt played across his features as he gave her an once-over.
