Tamara put on a scared look and wiggled away from him. “Please let me go. I can give you money! My husband is rich. We can give you whatever you want.”The man paused. He observed her silently, trying to see if she was lying.Tamara continued, “It’s true. My husband is rich. You must have heard of his business…”“Well then, tell me.” The man gave Tamara an amused look. He seemed to have fallen for it.Tamara swallowed as if she was trying to calm herself down. “The Custry Corporation.”The man thought his ears were playing tricks on him. “What did you say?”The man widened his eyes at Tamara. She didn’t look like she was lying.Tamara smiled and repeated, “The Custry Corporation. Have you never heard of it?”The man paused.“It’s alright. You’ll come to know him very well soon.” Tamara smirked dangerously. While she was distracting the man, she had already untied her restraints. Now that she knew who was the one who kidnapped her, there was no need to continue with the act.S
The gunshot went off once, twice, thrice. A car was speeding toward the place. When he heard the gunshots, Sebastian’s gaze darkened.Sebastian saw a few men running out in terror as soon as his car arrived at the place.“Get them!” ordered Sebastian.The cops rushed forward and apprehended the men.Sebastian rushed toward the house. He kicked down the door forcefully. He let out a sigh of relief when he saw the scene inside.“Sebastian!” whined a soft voice. Tamara rushed into Sebastian’s arms when she saw him.Sebastian caught her body. “Were you frightened?”“Yes! Very!” Tamara nodded firmly.Sebastian turned his gaze to the man lying in his own pool of blood. His eyes twitched.Sebastian’s racing heart finally calmed down. He closed his eyes.“I’m glad you’re okay, Tammy.” Sebastian hugged her tight. He wanted nothing more than to keep her in his pocket and bring her to safety.He still remembered how scared he was when he learned of Tamara’s disappearance.He thought
The lights in the hotel room were dimmed. It gave off a soft vibe as it shone down on the couple.Sebastian’s eyes softened. “How could I not worry about you, Tammy?”Tamara’s breath quickened, and her heart melted.Sebastian lowered his gaze and continued treating her wound. He continued, “I know you’re amazing. You can come up with scented tea leaves, know how to fight, know acupuncture, and so much more. Still, I’ll worry. I want to take care of you and protect you for the rest of my life.”Tamara’s nose prickled.Sebastian was putting some disinfectant on her leg. He was gentle but meticulous.Tamara was deeply moved by him.Who wouldn’t enjoy being taken care of?Tamara could sense Sebastian’s fear and helplessness, especially when they were at the house. She could tell from how forcefully he had kicked down the door.That was why she had rushed into his arms. In her own way, she was trying to comfort him.His emotions also rubbed off on her, and she found herself gettin
Tamara bit into her bread again. “I just think it’s getting a little boring.”Sebastian observed her and said, “No.”“What?” Tamara was taken aback. She wasn’t expecting such a swift rejection.Wasn’t he busy?He was replying to emails every single day, and he would sometimes hold meetings over the phone as well.Wouldn’t it be a good thing to end their honeymoon early?Sebastian put down his phone and sighed. “I never knew you were the considerate type.”Tamara turned pink. “I just wanted to give you a choice. Since you rejected the idea, let’s see the honeymoon to the end.”“Mhm. Let’s go through with the plan. I won’t agree to end our journey early.” Sebastian held Tamara’s hand. His gaze softened at her.Tamara took her hand back and got up. “I’m full. I’ll be in the courtyard if you need me. Clean this up!”Tamara exited the villa.Sebastian watched her retreating figure with a smile. However, his smile faded when his eyes landed on his phone.…The courtyard wasn’t b
Tamara felt speechless.She saw how serious Sebastian looked and sighed. “I’ll stop talking to her.”Sebastian hummed in approval. The corners of his lips quirked up as well. It was apparent he was satisfied with Tamara’s answer.Tamara sat on the swing again. This time, Sebastian was there to push her off the ground. Tamara giggled happily.After the sun sank beneath the horizon, the couple visited the nearby beach.They had decided to stay near the beach again. When night fell, the sea sparkled with some luminescent microorganisms.This was the first time Tamara had seen anything like this. Her eyes widened in curiosity, and she bent down to scoop some water with her hand. It was beautiful!Sebastian chuckled at her cute expression. The couple enjoyed the night air together.There was a small cliff not far from them. The waves crashed into it over and over again.The couple climbed up the cliff and sat down to stare into the night.“I’ve been thinking about the past, Sebast
“What?” Tamara widened her eyes at Sebastian. “It was love at first sight for you?”“Maybe love isn’t the right word, but you did leave an impression on me,” chuckled Sebastian. He cocked an eyebrow. “Did you think I would just climb in bed with any woman?”Tamara groaned, thinking, “So that was what he meant.”Sebastian held her hand tightly. “You silly girl. Do you really expect me to fall for you right after you tricked me?”Tamara giggled and said, “Who knows? Maybe you were seduced by me.”Tamara stuck her chin up proudly.She was confident in her looks.Sebastian’s hot breath fanned across her face. “You’re right. You did seduce me.”Tamara laughed at his remark, but her laughter gradually faded as she sensed something was amiss.Sebastian’s kisses were like raindrops falling onto her skin. He kissed her cheeks and neck before trailing downward towards her collarbone.Tamara’s breath quickened. “What are you doing? We’re still outside!”Sebastian looked up and stared a
Sebastian walked up to Tamara. He leaned in closer and whispered against her ears, “How could you be so cruel, Tammy?”Tamara pushed him away. Some of her lotions got on his face. “Get out!”She was determined to see through her decision.She wouldn’t fall for his charms!Sebastian frowned and wiped the lotion from his face. He sighed and said, “Fine. If you insist.”He slowly made his way out of the bedroom. He kept turning back to give Tamara a sad look.Tamara almost broke character.She quickly put a mask on her face and forced herself to calm down.Sebastian had been too rough with her these past few days!Even now, her waist was still sore, and her legs didn’t feel like hers. This was also part of the reason why they stayed in today.She had to call it quits for the day.…After Tamara was done, she climbed into bed and scrolled through some videos mindlessly.She felt herself slowly drifting off into sleep until she finally gave in.Midnight.The door to the bedro
“Put me down! I’m still brushing my teeth.” Tamara knew she couldn’t win against Sebastian, so she yielded.Sebastian chuckled. “Are you still mad at me?”Tamara huffed, “That depends on you.”Sebastian cocked an eyebrow. “Have I not pleased you enough?”Tamara groaned.She knew what Sebastian meant just from the perverted smile he was giving her.“Put me down, Sebastian. I’m being serious right now!” ordered Tamara.“So you weren’t being serious before?” Sebastian’s gaze darkened.Tamara rolled her eyes.She wondered why Sebastian why being so petty with her. “Put me down right now!” Tamara didn’t know what else to say.She finally learned how petty a man could be compared to a woman.Sebastian chuckled lowly and put her down. He wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her. “Alright, please don’t be angry at me. I’ve prepared your favorite seafood. Come and eat it.”“I’ll be done in a minute,” said Tamara, sighing.Sebastian knew her a little too well.…After Tam
