With resignation, she began to unbutton her shirt under his watchful gaze.

Melissa’s buttons were halfway undone.

Overwhelmed by shame, her body trembled, making it difficult to proceed with undressing.

Marcus stood a step apart from Melissa, his eyes devoid of warmth, as if gazing at a stranger who had betrayed him, tinged with a hint of contempt.

Given his background, if he hadn’t maintained his chastity, scenes like this might have unfolded countless times before.
