Ruby needed to be reminded how long the maids had been knocking on the door. However, she could remember every touch Matthew gave her. Her husband's hands removed layer after layer of clothing she had worn that afternoon.
The sound of firewood being eaten by the fire was clear in Ruby's ears, but the sound of Matthew's breathing beside her ear made Ruby stop paying attention to her surroundings.
Matthew lifted Ruby's naked body, then carried her like a koala hugging a tree trunk. His lips caressed Ruby's lips gently while his other hand rubbed Ruby's back.
Even though Ruby wasn't wearing clothes, her body didn't feel cold because Matthew always channeled spiritual energy to warm her.
Matthew removed the entire pile of papers and books from the table to lay Ruby's back on the table.
"Give me a sign if your body feels uncomfortable." Matthew kissed Ruby's neck and licked it so that Ruby's body felt a strange sensation that was both ticklish and increased her lust.
