Rowan couldn't help but laugh when he heard his wife's condition. He found it adorable that she was willing to do something naughty regardless of how shy she was.“You are so cute." He pecked her cheek and patted her hair. “Maybe I will eat you later when we are at home. That way you would have any excuse to run away from me," he teased.A tinge of red spread across her face from his indelible words. She could die just from looking at that sleazy smile of his. “What...What are you going to do about the makeup?" she asked, gesturing to his kissey face and body.“My wife branded me, I will happily wear it around for everyone to see," he said with a cheeky smile.“No, you can't do that. I will wipe it off now." she reached out to hold his face but he immediately dodged her.“We are not going to argue about this Rowan. Come here now!" she yelled and he placed his hand on his chest pretending to me charmed.“I like it when you get sassy. But right now, I can't let you wipe off your label.
