Alex turns me around roughly he glares at my jumpsuit. “What fuck is this? Why won’t the dress go over your hips.” he growls.

I bite my lips to stop myself from laughing. “It’s called a jumpsuit. It doesn’t go up your hips, it’s not a dress.” I tell him.

“What the fuck is a jumpsuit? Why would Sasha let you something so ridiculous?” he asks.

Before I could say anything, I felt him rip the jumpsuit right off me.

I stare at the fabric laying at my feet in shock.

My eyes move up to my husband.

He smiles innocently. He shrugs his shoulders. “I couldn’t get it off you and we don’t have much time before Sasha’s and the kids come looking for you.” He wasn’t joking.

Today was Sasha’s wedding day and we were supposed to be downstairs at the reception, but Alexsei wanted some time alone away from everyone.
