“You cannot keep scratching forever. Otherwise, your wounds will get infected, and you’ll die,” smirked Tamara.Ewan directed a resentful stare towards Tamara, who appeared to him as a graceful and dignified woman, disdainfully observing his suffering.He wanted to kill her! Despite his desire to approach her, Ewan was thwarted by Tamara’s possession of that mysterious weapon, which kept him at bay.He cursed inwardly, “Damn it!”Gritting his teeth in anguish, Ewan persisted through the piercing itch that seemed to penetrate his bones. A profuse sweat drenched his body as every inch of his being begged for the sweet relief of scratching.Tamara couldn’t help but smirk with satisfaction as she took in the sight of Ewan’s anguish. “Do you want the antidote?”“Give me the antidote!” demanded Ewan.“There’s none,” shrugged Tamara.Ewan bellowed in exasperation, consumed by an overwhelming desire to kill this accursed woman.Tamara wore a casual smile as she spoke, “Don’t look at
Subsequently, a psychologist informed him about a mysterious tea barista rumored to possess the ability to craft scented tea leaves with the power to induce sleep rapidly. If used for a long time, it could effectively relieve insomnia symptoms. They only knew that the tea barista was a woman. No one knew any specific information about her. Ewan was at a loss about what to do, as not even sleeping pills worked on his people until Alice arrived with Sebastian and Tamara. Ewan had never thought that this beautiful and fragile-looking girl was the legendary tea barista! He had tested her skills before. While she was formidable, she was not his match.And now, he bore witness to her scented tea leaves and saw how quickly they took effect on him. Based on her words, Ewan immediately confirmed that the girl in front of him was the tea barista.Tamara listened to what Ewan had to say with a calm expression. After he finished, she asked, “What does this have to do with me?”Ewan
Tamara did indeed return to her room to take a nap. She must have been exhausted from making all the scented tea leaves earlier that day.The test she did on Ewan exceeded her expectation.It was great!When Tamara woke up from her nap, she decided to take a walk outside. She made her way out of the castle, and not once did anyone try to stop her.She started to wonder if Ewan was telling the truth.Once outside the castle, she saw a car parked outside. The driver got down and greeted her. “Where would you like to go, Miss Moore? I can give you a lift.”Tamara grew silent. She swiftly got in the car. “Let’s go for a drive around town.”“Alright,” complied the driver.The car started, and they drove to the town area.The castle was not far from the town, and they arrived after a few minutes.Tamara observed the vibrant cityscape, where passersby strolled in small groups of two or three. The bustling scene was accompanied by the cheerful activity at the small stalls, which were
One after another, people came to Tamara asking for her help. Tamara felt helpless. But seeing those people tortured by insomnia, she couldn’t help but feel sorry for them. Regardless of what Ewan did, these residents were innocent.Tamara pondered for a moment. She then looked at the crowd. “Queue up. I’ll follow all of you back so you can sleep at home.” If the crowd were treated here, soon, a large group of people would be lying on the street. The scene would be indescribably eerie.“Okay, we’ll listen to your every word.” The crowd nodded and looked at Tamara with anticipation. Tamara looked at the person standing in front of her. “Where is your home?”“It’s nearby.” The person pointed to a house not far away. “It’s over there.”“Let’s go then.” Tamara nodded and went with the person. A strange scent lingered in the air, and the person quickly fell asleep after inhaling it. They gave Tamara a grateful glance before closing their eyes.Tamara came out of the house and
Tamara was suddenly pulled into Sebastian’s arms. She stumbled over her foot. Thankfully, Sebastian was there to catch her. Tamara slumped against Sebastian.She looked at him in surprise. “Sebastian? I thought you left? Why are you here?”Tamara tried to break free from Sebastian’s embrace, but he only held her even tighter. His hot breath fanned across her neck. Tamara could feel his panicked breath.Sebastian’s hoarse voice sounded, “How could I leave without you?”Tamara’s heart swelled. She smiled helplessly, “Didn’t Alice say she would send you away before coming to get me? Since you’re still here, we won’t be able to leave that easily.”Sebastian couldn’t help but laugh. He placed his palm on her back. “Tammy, why are you so silly? How can I possibly leave you alone with how naive you are?”Tamara looked at him in confusion, “What are you talking about?”Sebastian let her go. He suddenly noticed how pale Tamara was. He furrowed his brows and picked her up with a frown. “H
Inside the castle.The castle looked incredibly beautiful and dreamy under the night lights. The lights were lit. From afar, it looked as if one had entered a sacred palace.Sebastian carried the already sleeping Tamara out of the car. Alice got down after them. She took a glance at Tamara and whispered, “It’s already late. You should go back to your room first. You can inform the maids if you’re hungry. They will take you to the dining room.”Upon discovering who Tamara truly was, Alice’s attitude toward her underwent a drastic shift. Despite this, Sebastian still chose to ignore her and wordlessly carried Tamara inside the castle.When they arrived at Tamara’s room, Sebastian put her on the soft bed and looked at her tired face. He took a seat by the bed.Alice suddenly piped up, “You should go back to your room, Mr. Custry.”Sebastian’s cold and sharp gaze suddenly fell on Alice. His powerful aura swept over her like a tidal wave. Alice paled. “I’ll sleep here,” demanded S
Ewan clenched his fists tightly and struggled to restrain the itchiness on his body. The veins on his forehead popped, making him look even more terrifying! Alice saw how much her brother was suffering and said in a softened tone, “Brother dearest, it’s meaningless for us to go at each other’s throat. Let’s stick to the plan. However, I feel that Sebastian is starting to suspect me. We need to dispel their suspicions as soon as possible.”Ewan closed his eyes abruptly and opened them again after a moment. His eyes were bloodshot. “Stick to the original plan. Tell them that only one person can leave. Let them decide for themselves.”“Okay.” Alice nodded and left Ewan’s room.Her face bore no semblance of innocence; it exhibited a chilling, cold expression.From the beginning, she had shown goodwill towards Tamara and begged the woman not to bring any harm to her or her family. This was all part of her plan with Ewan!The first thing they needed to do was dispel their suspicion.
Tamara looked like a cat enjoying a nice sunbathing. Sebastian observed her closely and felt the corners of his lips curl up into a tender and doting smile. “Are you full?”Tamara nodded, “Yes, I am full.”“Then it’s my turn,” Sebastian put down his fork and carried Tamara towards the bed.“Hey, wait, not now...” Tamara was startled. She looked at his fiery eyes and instantly understood what was happening. She struggled against him. “But I just finished eating...”“It’s a good time to exercise.” Sebastian gently kissed her forehead.Tamara was stunned. But as she recalled their recent incidents, she did remember not being able to finish the last time they were together. Tamara relaxed against her man.Night fell.The luxurious castle was brightly lit. Inside the room, the air was thick with the sounds of pleasure and longing. The two lovers intertwined with each other, their bodies ebbing and flowing like the tide against the shore.Moonlight filtered in, casting a faint silver
