Nancy's expression grew increasingly tender. She bit her lower lip and said, "You bastard. It's one thing for me to let you take advantage of me, but I'm not some naive girl who falls for sweet talk."
"You're a married man. Aren't you ashamed to say things like that?"
As the words left her mouth, Nancy felt a distinct pang of guilt. She was indeed enjoying his attention, but her mind painfully reminded her of the stark reality.
This man, who made her heart flutter with his gentleness and consideration, was her brother-in-law, the husband of her own younger sister.
She herself was also a married woman. She had cheated with him just as her sister became pregnant. Why did it have to be such a convoluted, dramatic situation?
"I'm not ashamed," Luis declared confidently. "Even before Lily got pregnant, she couldn't handle me and wanted to find another woman to share the burden."
