"Do you know how long it's been since we've made amour, Angleterre?" Arthur ignored Marianne and went back to his papers. Since that morning she had been asking him questions to make him impatient and he had realised that the more intimate they were, the more nervous the Englishman became... the more she amused herself, sitting uncomfortably on the sofa with the pure intention of provoking him.There were times, from one year to the next, when France found England irresistible, so she resorted to memories of extreme sensuality to lure him back to bed, and she was convinced that the blond's resistance was due to his pride. She would probably be able to seduce him by the end of the day. "I know..." she continued, "We haven't made amour in twenty-four years."
