"Daddy!"The voice managed to wake Sebastian, who had been dozing on a lumpy and hard kapok mattress. The mattress was placed on top of an old iron bed that always creaked with even the slightest movement.Sebastian's eyes opened, and his gaze turned to where his wife was. It appeared that he found Tera panting heavily, her breath racing. She was rubbing her face with great agitation, her eyes fixed on the closed bedroom door.Sebastian rubbed his drowsy face and rose from the bed with utmost patience. He had to hold back from complaining or protesting anything that was happening right now.He was genuinely exhausted, and his body ached from sleeping on Tera's hard kapok mattress. Additionally, it was now three in the early morning, a time when he should be sleeping soundly until morning.Sebastian shifted to face Tera, who was still trying to control her heavy breathing. It seemed that Tera had experienced a horrific nightmare, as sweat beads covered her forehead, face, and neck. Seb
"Everything is fine, Ma'am. Young Master Tora just needed some time to himself. Yesterday evening, he spent time in the pine forest until sunset. Then we accompanied him to meet a friend for dinner, and they went back to the friend's house. Since then, Young Master Tora hasn't gone out. But I can assure you everything is okay. Before 10 PM, he briefly went out to receive a fast-food delivery, saying he'd stay overnight."Listening attentively to William's explanation, Tera started asking out of curiosity, "Do you know the name of Tora's friend?""Ah, Ma'am. We weren't introduced to Young Master's friend, and we weren't told their name. So, I'm sorry; I can't answer your question.""But at least you know, is Tora's friend a man or a woman?"William hesitated for a moment, not answering immediately. Sebastian, who knew what kind of answer William was about to give, showed a dismissive expression towards his wife's curiosity, thinking it was a waste of time and effort to inquire about To
"Did I sleep with Vivia?"Instead of answering, Tera pushed Sebastian using both her hands. She didn't want to continue the conversation that had the potential to escalate into a world war because she knew she wouldn't be able to handle Sebastian, who looked ready to defend himself in every way. He was a professional ladies' man, and Tera would undoubtedly lose if they engaged in an argument about his infidelity."Enough! You'd better leave! I'm tired! I want to sleep!"Sebastian, a robust man, wasn't easily pushed around. He resisted with all his strength, while Tera seemed like a bulldozer ready to crush Sebastian, pulverizing and destroying him if he didn't move from her path.Tera's strong push, combined with her substantial weight, finally managed to shake Sebastian's defense. He was pushed back, pressed against the closed wooden door.At that moment, Sebastian took advantage of the situation by grabbing Tera's body and enveloping her with both his arms. He leaned casually agains
Tera is a woman who is difficult to persuade. Very stiff and stubborn. But, once lost in her husband's game, the woman will obey and follow whatever the man wants. Never mind kneeling, the woman would even kneel. However, his defense was too thick to penetrate. The woman will stop when she feels like she is about to cross the line. She plays well with instinct and when instinct says enough is enough, Tera will stop her husband from crossing the line.This time Sebastian really wanted to break through the woman's defenses, Sebastian deliberately prolonged his fondling, torturing Tera with a hanging release that almost drove the woman crazy. In fact, Sebastian makes Tera please Sebastian more than Sebastian pleases Tera's body.The man played selfishly and was full of self-preservation. When Tera was angry because she failed to get a release for the umpteenth time, Sebastian just grinned a little and moved his mouth away from the center of Tera's pleasure.The man stood on the edge of t
"Seb! Oh..."Tera had never imagined that she would experience something like this in her life. It was something that had never crossed her mind or made sense. She wasn't the type to have excessive curiosity about the pleasures of romance and physical intimacy. Her knowledge about adult matters was limited to some mild Western movies she had watched, containing only kisses and minimal intimate scenes. So, Tera had never received an explanation about what true intimacy between a man and a woman entailed. The intensity of the sensations that coursed through her body was beyond her comprehension. Tera never knew this. What she knew was from a few women's world articles that stated that romance could make a woman feel bound and dependent on her partner. This is why Tera was afraid that not only her body would become bound but also her heart.Tera's entire body trembled, her breath came in gasps because of the sensations she was experiencing. She arched her back, pressing against the hard
"Welcome, Young Master."An extremely unusual and unsettling greeting greeted Tora at the front gate of his house. The young man simply nodded stiffly, glancing back at the sedan that had just brought him home.William nodded, "Welcome home, Young Master," said William.Once again, that address was what Tora heard from Sebastian Lim, a name that felt very strange and unusual to him. Tora sighed in annoyance, "How many times do I have to tell you, don't call me that!"William bowed politely and respectfully, "I'm just following the orders of the Master."Tora, the youngest of the Tera family, sighed in frustration and walked away from the sidewalk filled with Sebastian's people.Tora's hand, about to open the wooden gate, suddenly froze in the air, and he turned to the side in confusion."Why are you guarding in front of the gate like this? Even though this is a hillside village, the sun is scorching! Guard from the porch!"The guards nodded politely, with uneasy expressions on their f
Tora rolled frustratedly on top of the bed, covering his head with a pillow and pressing his hands against it with all his might, while managing to muffle the groans of irritation caused by the pressure of the pillow."Argh! Can't they just stop doing that!" Tora protested, removing the pillow from his face.The young man glanced at the wall adjacent to his bed, an old wall that couldn't dampen the sounds of lovemaking happening in the next room. It was three in the morning, and somehow, Sebastian and Tera had lost track of time, engaging in their passionate activities until the early hours like this. A blazing love affair that had rudely awakened Tora from his deep slumber.Just his luck!Tora was still feeling dizzy and feverish, but there was not a hint of concern or understanding from his sibling. In fact, she hadn't left her room since Tora had arrived. Tera remained inside, receiving all the services her husband provided, from food and drinks to all her needs. She had completely
"Argh! Seb! Faster! Harder!" Tera shouted, her husband was getting crazier.The woman stomped hard, her husband getting stronger. Sebastian, who was on his way to the top, did the same thing, the man became more insistent in strengthening his movements. Tera's insistence from above coupled with how wildly his wife was screaming made him even more excited.The man gathered all his energy and concentration to give whatever his wife asked for. When he had the horns, Tera suddenly shouted."Enough?"Tera stopped moving completely. The woman turned to the kitchen door curiously, and her face looked very happy when she heard the sound of a bowl being hit by a spoon.Teng Teng Teng!"Tera, please..." growled Sebastian, who was very embarrassed."That's enough, Seb!""I know, but me first ... I will give you every freaking bowl of bubur! But please, just a little more!" panted an agitated SebastianThe man pressed Tera not to move away, his face pitiful and full of pleading as he looked at hi
Three Months After Tera Spent Time with Nora!Sebastian Lim sat restlessly beside Tera—precisely inside the aircraft cabin soaring above the European land. They were en route to Switzerland for a year-end holiday after completing business in London. A brief vacation amid the CEO responsibilities at Trust Group was a privilege Sebastian cherished. When else would he have the time and opportunity to introduce Nora to the outside world, especially to snowy Europe? Nora would undoubtedly love the winter season, as the little girl often watched it in her favorite shows."Sir, is it true that Mrs. Herlinda will join us in Switzerland?" Tera asked, trying to ignore her boss's uneasiness."Yes, but not for a few more days. Mam is busy handling business in Indonesia.""In that case, may I leave earlier from this holiday?""What do you mean?""This is the year-end vacation I've been looking forward to all year. I promised to spend it with my sister in our hometown. So, I intend to ask for permi
On the first day as Nora's caregiver, Tera Vic took on the responsibility, leaving all meetings and tasks to fulfill the duty assigned by Da Lao Ban - taking care of a tantrum-throwing toddler longing for her father.Tera invited Nora and Sofia to play together in Sebastian Lim's private room within the main office. The room was filled with various toys, dolls, a fridge with play food, a hot water dispenser for making milk, a bottle sterilization machine, and other necessities.Originally Sebastian's resting place, the room transformed into a temporary bedroom for his child during office visits. Tera had heard that occasionally Da Lao Ban brought his toddler to the office, spending the entire day in the room due to Sebastian's unending business engagements.Sebastian Lim, known as a single man with a child, appeared worn-out and tired that day. Some new employees, like Tera, initially speculated about Sebastian being a single father due to a pregnancy outside of marriage, but Tera's s
Tera bid farewell to some guests in the Lim family mansion's flower garden. It was Mrs. Herlinda's birthday, and Sebastian organised an exclusive surprise party for his mother. Tired of repetitive pregnancy questions at the main event, Tera sought solace in the quiet right wing of the mansion near an artificial lake and lush trees, enjoying a cup of sweet tea.Unexpectedly, she found Raymond and Ethan there, sipping coffee and laughing. Seeing three cups, she guessed one was Sebastian's."What are you doing here, dear?" Sebastian appeared, embracing Tera."You startled me!" Tera exclaimed as she turned around."Look, we have a Tera here!" Ethan grinned.Sebastian explained their presence, and Tera playfully accused him. The trio enjoyed coffee while Tera and Sebastian shared a moment on a sofa.Raymond remarked on the surprising turn of events, referencing Sebastian's past visit to a club in a state of sexual frustration. Ethan chuckled, pointing out their happiness at Tera and Sebast
"For someone who's not fighting for anything, you also don't have the right to question me!" Sebastian replied."Are we going to continue like this? Arguing and fighting! Are you tired? I am exhausted. It's sickening to keep arguing with you!""If you're feeling sick, then I'm nauseated! I'm sick of your attitude!" Sebastian growled."Seb, what's wrong with you? Are you the same Sebastian I met yesterday, or are you a disguised ghost?""Cut the crap, Tera! Answer honestly, who's in your womb!" Sebastian didn't accept any nonsense and attacked her with a loud voice.Tera was stunned. She didn't expect Sebastian to respond so harshly."Seb..." Tera whispered."Don't cry! I don't want to see tears today! No more melodrama or nonsense! I just want an honest answer. Whose child is it, Tera? Is the child mine?"A teardrop rolled down the corner of Tera's eye. Her eyes widened perfectly due to the pressure and Sebastian's anger. She didn't expect the calm morning to turn into chaos."I don't
which is cool in the middle of thriving vineyards. A woman steps between the cabernet sauvignon on the left and right. Cabernet sauvignon is one of the most famous types of grapes and is widely used as the main raw material for making quality wine. The fruit grows abundantly, clustered and hanging ready to be picked. Tera enjoyed the view and the very cool morning air with a big smile on her lips. A smile which then received a reply from several plantation employees who were cleaning the grass which was getting taller. As obstetricians often recommend, Tera tries to have a healthier and stronger pregnancy. This morning she decided to take a morning walk as a form of light exercise that could strengthen her womb. Even though she was lazy and still sleepy, Tera fought it well. She must be able to do light exercise for the good of the child in her womb. Tera took in as much oxygen as possible and then exhaled slowly. A fresh morning intake will improve his mood. Last night Te
"this is it?" Sebastian murmured. His voice was weak. He lowered his head, avoiding Tera's gaze. She nodded softly, "Yes, this is it." She replied softly."Goodbye, Tera." Sebastian said without looking at the woman."Seb," Tera replied in kind.He turned away, his shoulders slumped, and his body language defeated.Tera stood there, motionless in front of her cabin. In the hallway, without looking back, she leaned against the wall for support. Her face was wet from the flowing tears. For some reason, the tears never failed to accompany her in moments like these.Even though this separation wasn't their first, the pain still felt just as strong."You're home already?" Thomas exclaimed as he appeared from the opposite hallway.The middle-aged man hurried to Tera, who was standing there crying by the wall. He embraced her and held her for a while, the young woman's body had become frail and fragile during the time they had been apart.Tera let her tears flow, fully venting her emotions.
Tera was restless, thinking about her unborn child, but she couldn't stop Sebastian Lim from being passionate behind her. He tried different positions to find comfort in their lovemaking, settling into the one that worked best for him. Tera moaned with pleasure, kissing as if there was no tomorrow, and Sebastian's hands firmly gripped her ample breasts."Give it to me, darling!" Sebastian exclaimed, raw and vulnerable.He released their kiss and focused on reaching his desired climax. His movements became more aggressive, rough, and Tera lost control.Amid the relentless pounding, Tera convulsed and her entire body tensed and trembled. She let out incoherent sounds of ecstasy as she reached her peak. Sebastian followed seconds later. He shuddered and thrust harder, his mouth letting out rough profanities as his body contracted and convulsed.It was an intense union filled with pent-up desire. They surrendered to each other, consumed by a longing that couldn't be contained. Tera and Se
Was last night's affair so terrible that it made Sebastian turn so cold, indifferent, and arrogant towards me? Question after question swirled in Tera's mind. The Sebastian Lim she met at the party last night was entirely different from the Sebastian Lim who had barged into her room and the one she encountered this morning. The Sebastian Lim at the party had been vulnerable, openly sharing his feelings and even expressing concerns about infertility and the condition of his heart. But when he forced her last night, he reverted to the Sebastian Lim Tera had known. And now, this morning?Yes, indeed. This morning, Sebastian became even colder and more indifferent. Any trace of the gentleness and warmth that Tera had glimpsed had vanished without a trace. Sebastian looked at Tera with disinterest, and his glances seemed filled with aversion.Tera regretted her curiosity and following Sebastian, finding herself trapped in the elevator. Knowing the consequences, she should have stuck with h
What happened felt like a dream that had never come true. If only Tera hadn't woken up without clothes and only covered in a thick blanket, maybe she would have thought it was a dream in the midst of her loneliness.Tera squirmed and stretched her extremely tired muscles. It was a quick, intense lovemaking that had left her feeling completely fulfilled. She longed for all those touches. She missed Sebastian greatly. This morning, he was the only thing on her mind. She couldn't get Sebastian out of her thoughts, and all the images from last night consumed her.Thomas Vic was puzzled by his daughter's behavior. He glanced at Tera several times and became suspicious when he saw her smile grow wider and more mysterious."Uh-huh...," Thomas cleared his throat, breaking Tera's reverie at the breakfast table, "It seems like someone is in a good mood this morning.""A beautiful morning should start with happiness. So, smile, Dad.""What happened last night? Did Arnold confess his feelings to
