"I've seen everything I need to see. Isn't it too late for you to be shy now?" Byron did not care about Maeve's little struggle. He used one hand to restrain her waist with absolute control and lifted the blanket under her. Then, he slowly rubbed her skin.

Maeve was like a captured animal. She lost all her strength and lay down with a red face and tears in the corners of her eyes, She did not know if it was because she was uncomfortable or embarrassed.

Byron looked up and saw her face, which was as red as a rose. Her eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings. Her behavior aroused the desire to destroy in his heart. He wanted to wreck her until she cried like he did to her last night.

Byron's eyes were filled with desires, but he suppressed them. After applying the ointment, he covered her with the blanket again. Maeve's face was buried under the blanket, revealing only the tips of his ears. She was just a little bit away from dying on the spot.

Ever since Maeve was young, she treated herself every time she fell or hit something. Her parents rarely cared about her. In the past, she had also fantasized about whether someone would gently blow on her wound and patiently apply medicine for her after she fell or got injured. However, this was beyond her expectations. She felt she could die peacefully.
