Chapter Eight

IT WAS almost mid-morning and Sienna was keeping Ethan home again. He had looked pale when he had woken up and she didn’t think it fair to send him to school. They had just finished breakfast when the doorbell rang.

‘Don’t tell me you’re taking another day off?’ were her first words when she discovered Adam on the doorstep. If one small boy had made this much difference to his life then maybe they should have started a family straight away when they had first married. And maybe their lives would never have changed. She would not have walked out on him.

Maybe!

‘How’s Ethan?’

Sienna appreciated his concern but she couldn’t help wondering whether Adam had an ulterior motive in turning up here today. He had made it clear that he wanted them to give their marriage another go and that he wanted them all to live together as one big happy family.

Which was not what she wanted. Even though she had longed for him in bed last night. Even though she had imagined him at her side, and replayed in her mind the amazing way he made love.

It had been a frustrating exercise. It had made sleep impossible and left her feeling tired and out of sorts this morning.

And now he had turned up again!

‘You could have phoned to ask that.’ She didn’t want Adam calling on them at any odd time. It was disrupting for her and had to be the same for Ethan.

Not that Ethan minded. He heard his father’s voice and came running. Adam scooped him up in his arms with a big grin on his face. ‘How’s my injured soldier this morning?’

‘I’m good, Daddy. Have you come to take us out again?’

‘No!’ It was Sienna who spoke. ‘You need a quiet, relaxing day, Ethan. And I’m sure your father has much better things to do. Shouldn’t you be at work?’ she asked Adam pointedly.

He wore a blue short-sleeved shirt that matched his eyes and did nothing to hide his muscular chest, and a pair of navy linen trousers that sat low on his narrow hips. There was a raw sexiness about him that triggered an unfortunate response.

Sienna dashed it away. ‘Adam?’

‘I’m going in later,’ he told her, his lips curved in a mysterious smile. ‘There’s something I want to show you first. Both of you.’

‘Then I suppose you’d better come in.’ She turned back into the room, hating herself for feeling anything other than animosity towards Adam. ‘What is it?’

Another secret smile as he put Ethan down. ‘We need to go and take a look.’

Ethan looked at his father. ‘Where are we going?’

‘It’s a surprise.’

‘I like surprises. Will I like it?’

‘I jolly well hope so.’

‘Come on, then, let’s go.’ And he tugged at his father’s hand.

Sienna was less eager. There was something about Adam that worried her. He had an air of the cat who had stolen the cream. He was planning something and she couldn’t help feeling that she was not going to like it.

‘So where
