The Love that Never Really Dies

“Does that hurt?”

“Yes… Ouch…”

Sasha lowered her gaze to avoid meeting Sebastian’s. She turned her scarlet face to look elsewhere.

Sensing her discomfort, the man paused his actions.

His piercing gaze darkened ever further as his body rose in temperature.

The pair were more than just familiar with each other, given that they’ve had three children and have spent umpteen times in bed together. His sexual attraction to her was not abnormal.

Sebastian’s force became gentler as he continued to apply the ointment for her.

Then, his unbridled desire compelled his hands to explore other parts of her body.

“W-What are you doing?”

Alarmed, Sasha was quick to respond to his advances and pushed him away without hesitation.

Sebastian stood there dumbfounded.

Immediately, he felt as if a pail of cold water had been splashed on his head. Her instantaneous recoil from his advances was an utter slap in the face for him.

“What do you think I’m doing? I’m applying the ointment for you. Besides, none of what I’m doing is illegal. You’re still my lawfully wedded wife. Is there anything I can’t do to you?”

Displeasure was written all over his charming visage.
