Pointing vehemently toward the door, she declared, “Leave! Do you think |, Alexis Fowler, lack for men who would gladly cook for me? ‘Who would share my bed?” Leonel maintained his silence.
“If | so desired, | could have men queued up from one end of Duefron to the other, all eager to cook for me and warm my bed without any repetitions. What do you take yourself for, fawning over me like this?” Alexis retorted.
