The cigarette between his fingers had burnt down to a stub. The ash, glowing with its last embers, fell onto the
back of his hand, but he didn't even flinch. Clara finished discussing matters with Anders and emerged to lan's
solitary figure. She sauntered over, her voice a gentle whisper. "lan, what's wrong?"
At the sound of her voice, lan's heart skipped a beat. He crushed the cigarette butt underfoot. A forced smile
stretched across his melancholic face. "Nothing, just felt like having a smoke, sorry. I'll be more mindful next
time."
He pulled her close, planting a tender kiss atop her head, his voice rough with weariness, "I'm going to check on
Grandma Rose at home. You rest up. I'll be back soon."
Clara knew without guessing that visiting Grandma Rose was just a front. The real deal was settling scores with
Leonora. No doubt, he had found out Leonora's connection to his father's critical illness. She watched him, her
heart in agony. Her cool fingertips gently smoothed the furrow between lan's brows, her voice soft. "lan, she and
you are different. | won't hold her sins against you. That wouldn't be fair to you."
lan's icy heart was instantly enveloped in warmth, his eyes growing hot. Emotion surged in his dark eyes,
impossible to hide.

continued to trust him.
Her understanding only deepened the ache in lan's heart. He held Clara tightly in his arms, their lips meeting in
a kiss. He forgot his physical pain, and just want to cherish the love of his life in his arms, to let her feel his love.
Clara had no idea how she ended up on the bed, nor when their clothes had fallen to the floor. lan's kisses were
scattered over her body with tender passion. Every touch of his hot, moist lips sent shivers through her, making
her tremble and moan softly, "lan."
His eyes were bloodshot, his voice a raspy whisper, "Baby, just kisses, nothing more."
He said this, but his hands didn't stop. Clara was completely disarmed by his teasing. lan guided her hand to his
burning arousal.
Tpassed, and eventually, they lay entwined, both breathing heavily, a sheen of sweat on their foreheads.
lan kissed her lips again, a satisfied smile curving his mouth. "We can only do this much for the first trimester.

Clara glared at him, her cheeks burning. Who was satisfying whom, after all? Her hand still ached.
