No Strings Attached novel (Clara and Ian) novel Chapter 407

Ian felt his blood boiling in his veins. The two of them hadn’t had sex for a while, so the primal urges that coursed through their bodies were beyond anyone’s control.

After a passionate lovemaking, Ian, somewhat sated, planted tender kisses on Clara. A post-sex haze still glowed in his eyes. “Mrs. Hayes, did you enjoy that?” he whispered, with a playful twinkle in his gaze.

Clara, cheeks flushed with a rosy hue, glared at him. “Ian, you’re shameless. I begged you to stop. Why didn’t you?”

Ian chuckled softly in her ear, “Darling, that wasn’t beggin. That was pure seduction. I couldn’t stop even if I wanted to. Besides, didn’t you also...”

His words were cut short by Clara’s hand swiftly covering his mouth. “If you spout nonsense again, I’ll leave you to fend for yourself!”

Ian kissed her hand gently. “Alright, I’ll be quiet. From now on, I’ll listen to my wife. If you say faster, we’ll go faster. If you say stop, we’ll stop. Is that not enough?”

“Zip it!” Clara pushed him away, hastily straightening her clothes. Just as she swung her legs off the bed to stand up, there was a knock on the hospital room door.

Casey stood at the threshold, holding a food carrier. He took in their disheveled appearance and the flush on their faces, instantly understanding what had transpired.

As Clara retreated to the bathroom, still blushing, Casey’s expression turned to one of mild warning as he fixed his gaze on Ian. “I know young folks have their needs, but Clara’s still in a delicate state. You need to be mindful of that. It wasn’t easy for her to conceive.”

Ian responded with a grin, “I get it.”

“Good. Now go wash up and let’s eat. I’ve made your favorite barbecue ribs and a few side dishes.”
