Chuckling, Edric allowed his hands to wander up and down her back. "I can't imagine who else she might be talking about," he answered, playfully tugging up the back of her chemise. "I can firmly say I am not well-acquainted with any 'exotic beauties', nor can I imagine becoming acquainted with one in the near future." Besides, through all the drama and bonding they'd been through over the past few months, he wouldn't even consider calling any woman a beauty - not unless he wanted an engagement ring thrown at his face.
"I am, however, very well-acquainted with a British beauty," he teased, dipping his head down to press a chaste kiss to her lips, "and I haven't had much personal time with her lately." There was no need - at least from his perspective - to speculate about another woman when he had this one in his arms.
"Unless," he said, taking a few steps back towards the bed, arms still tightly wound around her waist, "she would like to tell me more about the gentleman who was making her giggle in my absence," he said, brows arched high on his forehead. He'd forgotten about that until now, but he'd meant to bring it up.
