his wife.”
    “His wife?” Her visitor started to laugh. It sounded malicious. “That must have stung. So I guess you didn’t get a chance to tell him.”
    “It wasn’t the right time or place.”
    “I’m running out of patience. Either you tell him — or I will.”
    Astrid’s heart froze.

Chapter 3
    “I forgot my scarf. Oh for goodness’ sake! I wasn’t gone five minutes!” A flustered Judith stormed past the half-naked couple lying in front of the living-room fireplace. She bashed her way into the kitchen and returned with a cooking timer.
    “I’ll be back in two hours. Be dressed and be decent.” Slamming down the timer on the coffee table, she stomped out.
    Sunny and Sven erupted in laughter. “My poor mother! How many times has she walked in on us?”
    Sunny wiped away tears. “The worst was when we were having sex while I was in labour with Bliss. I thought she was going to pitch a fit.”
    “I’m not in so much of a hurry tonight,” said Sven pulling his wife to his naked chest and unhooking her bra with a single twist.
    Sunny sighed as he began to stroke her breasts, gently rubbing his fingertips over her nipples.
    “You still have to teach me how to get my bra off that easily.” She gasped as he bent down and nibbled on her. “I guess you’re so good at it because you’ve had so much practice.”
    Sven examined her face. No sign of anger or jealousy. Nothing but a loving, slightly lustful smile.
    “You don’t talk about all the other women nowadays. Did it bother you to see Astrid the other night?”
    Sunny’s eyes widened in surprise.
    “Of course not. But I have to admit she was even more beautiful than you said. I imagine when you made love it was like Narcissus having sex with his own reflection. The two of you look so much alike.”
    He knew he shouldn’t press but he had to know.
    “It won’t bother you if I call her when you’re away? Just to catch up. I have a business proposition for her.”
    “Of course you should call her. And,” she said, slowly unzipping his fly, “you don’t need my permission. I trust you.”
    She knelt down to finish undressing him, pausing along the way for a touch. A taste.
    “Shouldn’t we be getting down to the business at hand?” she said stroking his penis. “We only have two hours until your mother’s back and there’s no way of knowing how long Bliss will sleep.”
    “What do you say we try to give her a little brother or sister?” He mouthed the words in her hair and she pulled away in surprise.
    “You mean it? You’re ready?”
    “I know you want a big family. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you got pregnant now and gave birth when we’re here this summer? It would be nice if at least one of our children was born in Norway.”
    Sunny’s expression made Sven’s heart melt. He hadn’t seen her look so happy since their wedding day.
    “Oh Sven! That is the best idea ever.”
    “And this time,” he said tracing his tongue along the side of her neck, “we’ll be together through the entire pregnancy. I’m not leaving your side. This trip to Moscow is the last time we’ll be separated until after our baby is born. Deal?”
    “Deal. But you may not want to be with me during the pregnancy. I was sick to my stomach the whole time when I was carrying Bliss.”
    “Until I got to St. Barts.”
    “That’s right! Maybe they should bottle you as a cure for morning—” A kiss cut her off mid-sentence as his tongue explored her lips and mouth. After more than three years, the taste and feel of him still aroused her. She was so excited she couldn’t have formed a coherent thought if she tried.
    Sven moved his lips to her ear. “We should start practising for the baby now. We have two whole hours.”
    Sunny slid out of her jeans and lay naked and welcoming on the rug in front of the fire.
    He stared down at her, his look full of love and lust.
    “You know, when we were apart I’d watch that video of us making love when you
