Why in the world was her body this weak to temptation? They were in an encampment preparing for war, not on a honeymoon!
Xenia inwardly sighed. As much as she regretted it, there was nothing she could do about it now. It already happened, and it wasn't like she could go back in time to stop herself from being stupid.
