Ian pondered for a moment, and thought she was right. He dipped his head and kissed her cheek, then wrapped his arms around her as they joyfully made their way home.
When it was time to sleep, he headed for the bathroom to take a shower. Upon coming out, he found Maja standing by the window on the phone.
The underfloor heating was on and she was dressed lightly, her figure grown more voluptuous with her pregnancy.
Ian lightly pinched her waist, feeling a stir of desire.
Maja still arranging some recent projects with Elvis. Ian's pinch earned him a glare.
He hugged her from behind and dared not go further, instead kissing her on the shoulder gently.
After Maja hung up the call, she tried to push him away, only to hear him say, "All shower gels smell the same, so why does it smell so amazing on you?"
"Stop it, the doctor said no intimacy."
"I know."
"Then why are you rubbing against me? You'll be the one suffering later."
Being so close to each other, she could feel the warmth emanating from his body.
Ian turned off the lights and grabbed her hand, making his intentions clear.
Realizing what he was up to, Maja's frown deepened.
She twisted his arm hard in protest; but even in pain, he persisted.
He was a tough guy, continuing despite the discomfort.
She found it amusing and couldn't help but really laugh out loud.
Ian took her laughter as consent and became even bolder.
Afterward, he reached for some tissues by the bed to clean her fingers.
Lying in bed, he couldn't fall asleep.
"Hey, Maja, what do you think we should name our child?"
Drowsiness was overtaking Maja, as pregnant women often feel sleepy.
"We'll think about it later."
"It's better to think about it sooner, don't you think? Do you want the baby to take your last name or mine? If it's yours, does that mean the baby will be a Sanders? Sanders is a pretty good-sounding name."
After speaking, he heard the soft breathing of Maja beside him—she had fallen asleep.
Ian gazed at her peaceful sleeping face. There was a time when she had lost a lot of weight, but lately, she's been well-nourished, and her cheeks have become fuller.
He raised his hand to affectionately pinch her cheeks, then his fingers trailed up to touch her brows and eyelashes.
Maja's brows were naturally well-shaped, and her lashes were long.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
