Rosemary's eyes softened, her lips curling into a gentle smile as she said, "You're quite easily contented."
"I think I'm the greedy one, being able to be with someone as wonderful as you. I'll have to work harder from now on," Romeo said, his touch light as he applied ointment to her wounds. "You—just you—outweigh everything in the world. You're enough to resist any temptation. In this life, you alone are enough for me."
Her gaze warmed even further at his words.
"Does it hurt?" Romeo asked as he gently rubbed ointment onto her back wound.
"Your touch is much lighter than those of the guys," she noted.
He must have a knack for medicine.
When she had been unconscious, someone had dumped way too much powder on her wound, causing her excruciating pain.
After Romeo finished applying the ointment, he gently kissed her on a spot that was not injured.
The soft touch made Rosemary lift her eyes, her beautiful side profile reflected in his eyes.
