Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 112

"Ethan, how did you live your days before getting married, huh?" Ines couldn't help but ask the question which had been bugging her for a while.

This guy seemed quite chill on the outside, but his needs in that department were way beyond her imagination. He wasn't a young lad in his twenties anymore, but a mature man in his thirties. Working his butt off during the day and not knowing how to slow down at night. She sometimes worried that he would wear himself out.

But after last time's lesson, she had sworn to herself to keep these thoughts inside.

Ethan chuckled, "Is Mrs. Meyer complimenting me?"

Ines rolled her eyes; men's and women's trains of thought really were worlds apart sometimes. But seeing his good mood, she didn't feel like arguing.

"Guess so." Ines said.

Ethan’s mood visibly perked up and he wrapped his arms around her, stealing a few more kisses.

Ines gave him a little shove, "Ethan, stop changing the topic. You still haven't answered my question?"

She had wanted to discuss the frequency of their sex life for a while, but he had managed to dodge the issue last time. Tonight, she was determined to get to the bottom of this and hopefully find a solution to their situation.

"Can I not answer?" Ethan frowned.

"No, you can't keep pulling the wool over my eyes.” Ines said.

"Izzy, there was never a woman that caught my eye before. I never thought about that stuff, but now isn't the situation different?" Ethan said.

No woman before marriage? This guy had some self-discipline, huh.

Ines felt a bit happier, but still delicately asked, "They say a man doesn't need love to, you know. You didn’t find someone to help you out?" At her words, Ethan pinched her side a bit roughly, grinding his teeth a little as he said, "Izzy, do you want your husband to be 'used goods'?" He had once had a sincere love, but the woman had been practical, and they never took the final step.

She looked at Ethan incredulously, her joy seeping into her eyes. Without considering any shyness, she asked outright, "So, you're saying it was your first time?" It was hard to believe a man in his thirties was still a virgin, especially when he had a past love that had left a deep impression on him.

But hearing her husband say he had never been with another woman before, she was thrilled.

Ethan nodded, admitting without any embarrassment, "Yes, it was my first time. So, Mrs. Meyer, you really need to cut me some slack, I've been holding it in for years."
