Ian opened a nearby drawer and took out the ointment.

While she was rubbing the ointment, Ian watched her. From his perspective, he could see the back of her neck, her nightgown hanging low, revealing a large area of skin marked with traces of their earlier passion.

When she finished applying the ointment, Maja looked up at him.

Ian instantly pushed her down.
