    About this ebook

    Sylvie thinks she is happily married, but her husband keeps rocking the boat, by wanting physical intimacy. At the end of his tether, he calls in his aunts to talk to Sylvie. She is returned to her family in disgrace. Unable to bear things, she leaves for the big city. There, she falls for her boss, and things take an unexpected turn.

    Her boss helps her to get a divorce, and then makes a confession to Sylvie. Sylvie is shocked, and delighted by the confession.

    Good romance stories are mood enhancers. I am thankful to all the romance writers who improved my mood many times. I am also thankful to be among romance writers, and I am thankful to all entities, physical and spiritual, who make it possible for me to write. I am thankful to you, reader, and I am thankful for every single person who has read any of my stories. I hope reading the stories gave you as much pleasure as writing gave me. Best of all things, Thabi

      CHAPTER ONE

      What do you expect me to do? demanded Thuba. Sylvie flinched.

      I'm not going to hurt you, he said.

      Why not? Why don't you hurt me? We'd both feel better, she said. They were eyeballing each other, his hands on her forearms, as they stood chest to chest. At six foot two, and built lean, Thuba towered over Sylvie, who stood at a voluptuous five foot five. He released her, and stepped back from her. They continued to watch each other.

      Were you raped? he asked.

      No! Why would you ask me that?

      I'm trying to understand why you're so scared of sex.

      I'm not scared!

      We've been married six months, and you get tense and fight me off if I so much as kiss you. Do I repel you?

      No.

      Before we married, I assumed you were a virgin.

      I am.

      Then, I could explain your fear. Now, I think you enjoy taunting me.

      I do not!

      Do you want me to force you? Is that how you get your thrills?

      No!

      Then what is going on with you?

      Nothing! Sylvie looked away from Thuba, then she sat down.

      I can't go on like this. I have needs, he said.

      I know.

      What do you suggest I do, since you won't give me what I need?

      We could get a divorce.

      No!

      It's the best way, Thuba, then you can find someone else.

      I spent a lot of years looking for the right woman, and that woman is you.

      I can't have sex with you.

      You'll learn.

      Never! vowed Sylvie, getting to her feet.

      You'd better learn, Sylvia. I'm going out of town for a week. When I come back, you better have your act together.

      Are you giving me an ultimatum? demanded an outraged Sylvie.

      You understand me well, said Thuba, then he left the lounge.

      Sylvie closed her eyes, then she opened them, and threw a cushion across the room.

      A while later, Thuba joined her, carrying a suitcase.

      I'm off to China, look after yourself, he said.

      You too, I hope you get what you want.

      These days, you're all I want. Sylvie looked away from him.

      Can I at least get a hug? asked Thuba. Sylvie went to hug him. They were still, holding each other. Thuba kissed her cheek, then he kissed her gently.

      I want good memories of our goodbye. I love you, Sylvie, he said.

      I love you, too.

      Do you?

      Yes.

      I sometimes wonder. I'll see you when I come back. Sylvie walked him to his car, and watched him drive off.

      She did not like the conversation that they had had. Why did Thuba have to rock the boat? Other than the sex issue, they had a great marriage. If only he would get over his obsession with sex.

      She returned home from work one evening, and the lights were on in the house. She unlocked the door.

      Hi, Thuba, she smiled.

      Hi, he said, approaching her. He put his arms round her, then he kissed her deeply, fondling her breast. She pushed him violently.

      You haven't changed your tune, I see, he said. Sylvie put down her handbag.

      You're late. Were you with your lover? Is that why you don't want me, because your needs are being met elsewhere? asked Thuba.

      No! said an outraged Sylvie.

      Who is he? What's he got that I don't have? Does he force you?

      There is no one!

      Does he pay you? If I pay you, will you sleep with me?

      Thuba! Stop it!

      What makes you want him, but not me?

      There is no one!

      Then how do you manage? I've been celibate since we started dating three years ago, and I'm going crazy. Don't you have needs?

      Everyone has needs.

      Who satisfies yours? No one satisfies mine, since my wife won't let me touch her.

      I can touch you, I can give you...

      I want us to be together.

      That won't happen, unless you force me.

      I thought you said you didn't want me to force you?

      I don't!

      Then why bring it up?

      I need to tell you something. Sit down.

      I don't want to. Sylvie gave him a long look, then she took a deep breath.

      I'm not attracted to men, she said.

      "Don't talk rubbish, every woman is attracted to men, and every man is attracted to women. It's just a question of
