Summer Ford's body was stiff, her mind completely blank while in his embrace.
Ethan Laurent carried her all the way into the house, up the stairs, and came to the master bedroom. He closed the door with his shoe and carried her directly to the bed.
He pushed her onto the bed and pressed his body onto hers, raising his hand to undo her clothes.
Summer Ford snapped back to reality at his movement, raising her arm to keep a distance between them, "Wait!"
Ethan Laurent looked at her leisurely, his brow raised, "Reason?"
Summer Ford watched him impassively, thinking deeply.
She didn't know what the future held for them, but she was very sure they couldn't have a child now!
At the very least, they were still in a hidden marriage, and the alliance between the Sullivan Family and the Laurent Family hadn't been resolved. She didn't want their child to be born a bastard hidden from the world.
