Chapter 997

lan softened his touch, massaging her scalp with the tips of his fingers.

Maja was worried about getting soap in her eyes, so she kept them squeezed shut

lan had already considered that, so he gently pulled her head back against him.

Her face was slightly tilted upwards, so no soap would get into her eyes

Feeling reassured. Maja finally opened her eyes.

But lan was standing, and she was sitting. She was bare, and in that position, when she looked up, they were eye to

eye

The atmosphere was somewhat charged

Normally, one would avert their gaze, but neither did They just continued to gaze at each other

Finally, lan looked away first, needing to grab the shower head to rinse off the soap.

Only when she felt the warm water trickling over her head did Maja blush, realizing the intimacy of their situation

lan washed her hair, lathered up a washcloth with shower gel, and meticulously cleaned her entire body as she

smelled nothing like her normal

self

After rolling around by the river, she smelled like fresh grass.

And after that wash, she smelled like floral shower gel.

A full half hour later, lan grabbed a towel from the side, wrapped her up, picked her up, and placed her on the

couch in the living room and said,

“I’ll go take a shower, then I’ll come out and rub some liniment on you.”

Maja, clutching the towel, nodded slowly.

lan’s own pants were dirty, and he was almost completely soaked. He grabbed pajamas from the side and went into

the bathroom to clean himself up

Twenty minutes later, he emerged, drying his hair. He went downstairs to fetch the liniment and then came up with

it. After pushing her hair off

her shoulder, he said,

“This might sting a bit

Maja had been awestruck as soon as he stepped out of the bathroom. His hair was still dripping wet, the collar of

his pajamas open wide, radiating an irresistible charm.

She turned her head to the side, making it easier for him to apply the liniment to the bruise.

At first, she didn’t feel any pain when the liniment hit her skin. It wasn’t until he started massaging that she started

to feel the pain.

“A special technique is needed for it to be absorbed properly Just bear with it”

The stinging sensation spread from her pores. Maja grimaced in pain

lan continued massaging her shoulder, but his gaze fell on her face

Her eyelashes were lowered, probably because she was replaceing it hard to bear all that pain. They fluttered

occasionally, and her breathing became heavier as she was trying her best to deal with the pain

Her hair was tucked behind her ear and the handprint on her cheek was almost gone, but some traces were still

visible.

Seeing her like that, appearing so vulnerable, stirred up feelings of protectiveness in him.

He broke off his gaze, his tone casual as he said, “Take off your towel You have bruises on your back and waist. ”

Maja stiffened hesitating as she clung onto a piece of the towel

lan bent down and swiftly pulled it off pressing her into his embrace, making her lie face down

Maja was furious and tried to sit up, “lan!”

*Stay still

His hand was cold as he poured liniment onto the bruises on her back and began massaging

Maja lay in his arms, and due to the sharp pain, she stopped protesting and just accepted what he was doing

After her back, he moved on to her waist

She was rather sensitive there, and whenever his fingers touched that area. brushed against the side of her chest

causing her cheeks to flush

Once he was done she was so drained and tred that the just lay there

lan, however, pushed her away and got up to go to the bathroom

Maja, dazed and tired opened her weary eyes to see a certain port

es face was dark as he went in to wash his hands, making sure to thoroughly clean each finger with soap. When he

came out, he saw that Maja was sitting up straight

The tower was casually draped over her, exposing her long, white legs.

The fire that lan had somehow managed to put out was instantly rekindled

He unconsciously swallowed hard, captivated by the alluring sight before him

Neither of them broke the silence. She didn’t say she would leave, and he also didn’t ask her to do so.

They remained in that impasse until he finally decided. With long strides, he walked over to her, roughly pulling her

close, holding her neck, and passionately kissing her

His other hand rested on her chin, that absolute control made him yearn for more of that.

Maja was almost forced to look up his kiss was so intense that she was almost left out of breath.

Her eyes misted over, and her lips were red and swollen

lan sat next to her, picked her up, and placed her on his lap, not even hesitating to unwind her towel

His pajamas were also a robe, which made things easier for him.

Maja’s shoulder was injured, her waist hurt, and before she could protest, he was already inside her.

His sharp eyes were veiled with a hint of red, his hand holding her waist

“Hold still, I’ve been thinking about this for a long time

Maja looked at his stunning face, opened her mouth to say something, but he silenced her with a kiss.
