Tamara gave Alice an indifferent look. “Are you saying you have feelings for him?”“You’re smart! I’m starting to understand why he likes you!” laughed Alice mockingly.Tamara sighed to herself.Alice smiled dreamily as she recalled Sebastian’s looks. “He’s tall and handsome and always has an air about him. My heart races every time he looks at me. I have always wanted a man like him.”Tamara almost gagged at the description.Alice continued to indulge in her fantasies about Sebastian, gushing over his appearance and charismatic demeanor, oblivious to the ominous expression on Tamara’s face.Tamara closed her eyes and suddenly piped up, “So you want to separate us.”Alice blinked innocently at her. “I wouldn’t call it that. I just think you’re not suitable for him. He deserves someone better.”“And you’re saying you are the one?” Tamara’s gaze was as cold as ice.Alice nodded with unwavering confidence. “I am the best choice for him. I truly believe we are a match made in heav
The butler asked, “How should I deal with them?”Alice cast a glance over her shoulder and directed her finger towards Sebastian. “Prepare a room for him in the castle.” Then, her gaze settled on Tamara as she coldly commanded, “As for her...just throw her into the dungeon.”The butler nodded, “Right away.”Then, with a wave of his hand, the couple was forcefully pulled in different directions.Sebastian was pissed. He was just about to explode when he saw Tamara discreetly shaking her head at him.The man gritted his teeth. The veins on his forehead popped in anger, but he still forced himself to calm down under Tamara’s soft gaze.Tamara was thrown into a cell. It was wet and dark. All of the other cells were occupied.She stood still, surveying her surroundings. A stone bed was positioned against the wall. Casting one last glance outside, she let out a sigh of resignation. She slumped onto the bed.She and Sebastian had underestimated Alice.They never anticipated that the
Tamara squinted at her guests and noticed Alice walking among them.Alice said to Ewan, “That’s her! She’s Mr. Custry’s wife.”Ewan observed Tamara.Inside the run-down cell.The cell bars acted as a divide between two vastly different worlds, yet the small cell did nothing to hide the woman’s allure.The woman sat on the bed with her hands placed neatly on her lap. She seemed to be in deep thought. She reminded Ewan of his prized cat—obedient and beautiful. Ewan’s gaze darkened. He turned to the guards. “Open up the cell gates. Bring Mrs. Custry to me.”“Yes,” complied the guard.Alice gave Ewan a curious look. “What are you doing, Ewan?”Ewan smiled, “Since you have demanded ten billion dollars from Custry Corporation as ransom, we have to make sure our prisoners are in their best condition. So, she has to stay in a room too.”Alice gave her brother a look of surprise. This wasn’t the Ewan she knew.Alice’s gaze landed on Tamara. Realization hit her like a train, and she
“Ewan!” shrieked Alice. She did not expect Ewan to just pounce on Tamara like some wild beast. “Get out, Alice!” Ewan barked at Alice. He had a wild look on his face.Alice stood frozen in her place. She threw a quick glance at Tamara. She knew what her brother was doing was wrong.But Ewan was hell-bent on having Tamara. He wanted to own her, to devour her—to fuck her.Alice turned to leave.Once the door slammed shut, Ewan turned his attention back to Tamara.He certainly wasn’t expecting what came next.A kick landed on Ewan’s stomach. Then, a slap across his face. Ewan howled in pain.He was sent to the floor after another kick. Tamara’s beautiful face was stone cold as she stared down at him. “Do you have a death wish?” hissed Tamara.Ewan’s eyes widened in disbelief at Tamara. Who knew such a fragile-looking girl could kick some ass!“You’re the first woman to ever hit me! You really are one of a kind!” Ewan jumped up from the floor. He was prepared this time. Surely
Before this, Ewan only felt lust for Tamara.He liked Tamara’s looks and lusted for her body.However, after exchanging blows with Tamara, he grew interested in the woman.Not only did she have a nice figure, but she also had an interesting personality! A woman like this was hard to come by.His feelings for her were slowly changing.He didn’t just lust for her. He wanted to marry her!A beautiful, brave girl like Tamara needed a strong husband, and Ewan was the best candidate.That was why Ewan changed his mind.He gave Tamara one last confident look before leaving the room.Tamara was dumbfounded.She stared blankly at Ewan’s retreating figure.“What is wrong with him?” she wondered aloud, a mix of confusion and disbelief evident in her voice. “Me? Falling in love with him?” She scoffed, a bitter laugh escaping her lips. “What a joke!”Her heart belonged to Sebastian. She would never fall for anyone else.One thing was for certain—Ewan would not force himself upon her.
Even when Sebastian’s hands were bound, it did nothing to hide his domineering aura. He looked down at Alice and narrowed his eyes dangerously at her. “You really think you’re untouchable here, don’t you?”Alice stumbled back from his glare and felt shivers running down her spine.She got up from the ground and put on a brave act. “I am willing to meet your request, Mr. Custry. However, on one condition—you must give me your solemn promise to marry me!”She continued, “You must be my husband if you wish to order me around!”Sebastian snorted coldly, “So, you want to be my mistress.”Alice’s face fell. “I am not your mistress!”“You want to marry me despite me being a married man. What else could you possibly be?” huffed Sebastian bluntly.Alice gritted her teeth. “You’re pushing your luck, Mr. Custry. Since you wish to be so stubborn and ungrateful, I have made up my mind—I won’t agree to your demand!”With that, she spun around and stomped off.“Wait…” came the husky voice.
Alice giggled and returned to her room. She needed to prepare for the plan.…The next day.Tamara got her freedom back. The maids no longer stood guard in front of her room, and she could roam around the castle freely.That aroused Tamara’s suspicion. She stood in front of the door with no intention of walking out.Something big must be at play here.Why would Ewan and Alice allow Tamara to roam the castle and get familiar with its layout?Tamara made up her mind. She decided to stay in her room for now.The pair of siblings were shocked to hear the news.The idea that Tamara would pass up the opportunity, even though it was right in front of her, never occurred to them.That meant Ewan’s planned encounter with Tamara would be in vain.Alice’s brows knitted tightly together. “Our plan won’t work if she doesn’t leave her room. What should we do now?”Ewan fell into deep thought. After a moment of silence, he mumbled, “If she doesn’t want to come out, we just have to make he
Sebastian wanted to mask their conversation with this method. However, once his lips made contact with Tamara’s, he lost all self-control.His longing for Tamara flooded over him, and their bodies burned hotly for each other.Tamara responded to his kisses, allowing Sebastian to have his way with her.The temperature in the room rose.Meanwhile, inside the office, Alice listened intently to the sounds transmitted by the listening device. Initially, everything seemed ordinary, and Alice could clearly discern the couple’s conversation.She couldn’t understand the couple’s conversation due to the language barrier. Fortunately, Ewan had preemptively arranged for a translator to resolve this issue. The translator was diligently translating everything the couple was saying.However, the conversation soon took a turn.First, it was heavy breathing. Then it was the sound of wet lips smacking against each other.The siblings exchanged a look. They didn’t understand what was happening at
