Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 7. Furious
"A-Alex?!"Byan frowned as he heard Kia's trembling, hushed voice. He immediately turned his attention to the screen, which displayed the figure of a man he recognized—a renowned lawyer and the owner of the Guntoro & Partners Law Firm—standing at the front door of Kia's apartment.Byan quickly shifted his gaze back to Kia, who was frozen, pale, and staring at the small screen. As he suspected, Kia had some sort of connection with Alex Guntoro.From the news circulating in the media, Byan knew that Alex was set to marry soon. And the woman he was supposed to marry was not Kia. But then, why did Kia have Alex's black card?There was no way Kia was related to Alex, since they clearly came from different ethnic backgrounds. Alex had slightly slanted eyes typical of Chinese descent, while Kia had big, sparkling eyes."Kia? What's going on?" Byan asked as if he didn't know who Alex was, who was still standing outside pressing the doorbell to Kia's apartment. His face seemed tense, though

**FLASHBACK TO THE NIGHT BEFORE...**Alex was utterly shocked when he arrived at his penthouse, only to find it in a state of utter chaos. At first, he thought he had been robbed, but his surprise only deepened when he checked the CCTV footage.A beautiful woman could be seen rampaging through his apartment, throwing everything in sight. She looked furious, agitated, and finally... she collapsed on the floor, crying.Kia.Feeling as if his heart had been squeezed, Alex froze as he watched the woman who had been his girlfriend all this time looking utterly devastated. After two years of being with him, Kia must have been furious because, in the end, Alex had chosen to marry another woman — a woman selected by his parents.The man with monolid eyes took a deep breath and immediately reached for his phone to call Kia. But her phone was off.Perhaps Kia was still angry.Without another thought, Alex hurried out of his penthouse, snatching his car keys off the table. He didn't care about

"So, his name is Byan?" Alex's voice was cold, as cold as the stare from his monolid eyes that bore into Kia's face. She silently cursed her own stupidity. Damn. Without realizing it, the image of Byan had flashed in her mind, beyond her control. But why did she have to blurt it out? "It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me, Kia. Because I will find out anyway." Alex shrugged off his gray blazer and roughly threw it to the floor. His gaze remained sharp on Kia, while his fingers busied themselves unbuttoning his shirt. His stare was filled with anger, the ego of a man who wanted to be better than anyone else in his woman's eyes. Alex felt hurt and frustrated. Just when he was savoring the softness of Kia's body, she had murmured another man's name. As if she were so lost in pleasure that all she could remember was the bedroom skills of that bastard named Byan! Alex stripped off all the clothes on his and Kia's bodies quickly and harshly, tearing some parts of her blouse a

Byan smiled slightly as he saw the woman he had been searching for standing right in front of him. He initially planned to approach Kia directly, but his steps halted momentarily when he noticed the sadness on her beautiful face. He frowned at the sight of the tears streaming down her cheeks. Kia… was crying? The dark-haired man continued his steps, moving faster this time with long strides, determined to reach Kia’s hand. Gently, he pulled her into his arms. "Everything will be alright," Byan whispered softly, stroking Kia's long hair, ignoring the fact that they had become the center of attention in the lobby. Some people who recognized Kia whispered among themselves, assuming that she was being embraced by her boyfriend. Realizing the growing attention, Byan gradually released his embrace, though he did not let go of her hand. "It’s not break time yet, but may I take you out?" Kia nodded without speaking, feeling grateful to meet Byan when her heart was shattered. Come to t

Byan's dark hair slowly dipped lower until it disappeared between Kia's parted, sexy thighs. He wasted no time savoring the delicious feast before his eyes, ready to be devoured with unrestrained pleasure.He brushed his tongue against her before exploring deeper, seeking her most sensitive spot and teasing it with his skilled maneuvers."Uumhhh..." Kia closed her eyes tightly, a long moan escaping her lips as she felt Byan's tongue dancing skillfully on her lower body. Her entire body shivered with delight, drowning in an endless sea of wild passion.She whispered Byan's name, gripping his thick hair tightly as waves of pleasure began to build in her stomach. Her second climax was almost there.Byan drove her crazy every time he touched her. She always experienced orgasms quickly, repeatedly, and so intensely that it made her dizzy.Kia screamed as her body convulsed with her second climax. Just with his fingers and tongue, Byan had made her lose control so quickly, like a firewor

"Stay here forever, Kia. Be my lover."Kia was still trying to process all of Byan's words, which she initially thought were just empty talk, but now she wasn't so sure anymore.The dark eyes of the man in front of her looked so serious and... sincere.But seriously, had she just been asked by a gigolo to be his lover?? Kia must be out of her mind if she accepted a gigolo's offer, even more foolish than when she had chosen to be with Alex!Being betrayed with Tessa had hurt enough, so what would it feel like if she had to accept that her lover was giving sexual pleasure to other women? No, it was completely absurd!Even though, truth be told, the long-haired girl couldn't deny the strange flutter in her chest when a man as handsome and tender as Byan confessed that he liked her and wanted her as his girlfriend.Byan was... every woman's dream man. Besides being handsome and gentle, he was also very perceptive. He could stir Kia’s desires to soar high. He was exceptionally skilled in

Kia woke up to the feeling of a soft kiss on her forehead. A sweet smile adorned those sensual lips, even though his eyes remained closed.But Kia furrowed her brow as she caught the scent of Byan’s fresh cologne, recently applied to his body. Instantly, the girl opened her eyes."Where are you going?" Kia asked, noticing that Byan was already standing, dressed immaculately as if ready to leave.He sat beside the bed and gently stroked her long hair. "There’s something I need to take care of, Kia. It won’t take long. I promise I’ll be back in an hour and a half.""Hm. What is it?" Byan smiled, seeing Kia’s pouty lips as she asked. "Work. Will you be okay if I leave you for a bit?"Kia nodded slightly, though she couldn’t help but feel a bit annoyed. She wasn’t sure why, but that’s how she felt."I’m heading out now. Ask the servants for anything you need," Byan said as he briefly kissed her lips, playfully nipping at them."Byan." Kia suddenly called out as Byan was reaching for the

"Men. Ugh. Why are they all such bastards?!" The woman in the white dress then gulped down the dark liquid in her glass, emptying it in just a few sips. She didn’t care if the intoxicating drink would rob her of her senses, especially after downing her fifth glass. Kia pouted, sighing heavily as she rested her face in her hands on the bar counter. Her mind drifted back to the photo of a beautiful pregnant woman she had seen on Byan’s desk. "I guess I should just stop hoping because this is all so exhausting," she mumbled, her blurry gaze fixed on her now-empty glass. Kia felt so foolish, thinking Byan would be different from that jerk Alex. But it turned out, Byan was even worse. Byan. Kia's brown eyes blinked slowly as she thought of that handsome face. Come to think of it, it made sense that Byan would be worse than Alex. He was a gigolo and ridiculously attractive. Isn’t it true that the more handsome the man, the more of a bastard he is? "Another one!" Kia shoute

Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 34. Convinced
“Morning, my sexy wifey.”A deep voice whispered gently in her ear, stirring Kia awake.As she stretched and yawned, Byan’s lips started trailing kisses across her chest, making Kia chuckle softly. She smiled, running her fingers through his thick hair as he remained absorbed in his exploration, showing no sign of stopping.“Byan.”“Hm?”Kia hesitated for a moment, trying to find the right words. But she eventually gave up—her pregnancy made her head feel a bit fuzzy in the mornings, and heavy thinking wasn’t ideal.“Uh… how long are we staying here?” Kia finally voiced the question that had been circling in her mind.“Here?” Byan lifted his head from her chest, eyebrows raised. “You mean in Bali? Or the resort?”“In Bali. I mean, how long are we staying in Bali,” Kia clarified quickly. She knew this resort held a deep meaning for Byan, and honestly, she felt comfortable here too.But she also missed Jakarta. Isn’t that where they actually lived? Lately, though, it seemed like Byan wa
Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 33. A Special Moment
Perfect. Kia couldn’t find a more fitting word to describe everything that was happening today… flawless. Everything she laid her eyes on seemed so beautiful and mesmerizing. White flowers, soft pinks, pale yellows, and light blues adorned the entire room, decorating her wedding venue with a delicate elegance. Her tired brown eyes blinked slowly, as if in disbelief of the words she had just said in her mind. Her wedding. For the past week, she had been hospitalized as the doctor had ordered complete bedrest to safeguard her still-fragile pregnancy. Then, once she was cleared to return home, three days later Byan invited her aunt and uncle, Burhan and Ana, to come to Bali. They were Kia’s only remaining family after her father passed away when she was a child, and her mother followed a few years ago. Even though Kia had already called them to share the news, they were still utterly shocked when a luxury car arrived to take them to the airport, where a private jet awaited to fly
Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 32. Second Chance
Kia took a deep breath before slowly opening her eyes. Her head rested comfortably on Byan's arm, and the warmth of his embrace, like a living blanket that had held her tightly all night, made her feel as though he never wanted to let go. For once, Kia was the first to wake up, still wrapped in the afterglow of their passionate lovemaking. She glanced up at Byan’s handsome face, still peacefully asleep. A smile formed on her full lips, as she recalled the words he had repeatedly whispered to her the night before. "I love you, Kia." Remembering his deep, masculine voice uttering those words so tenderly sent a wave of happiness through her soul. She knew she would never tire of hearing that sentence, not as long as it came from Byan’s lips. Could falling in love really feel this wonderful? It felt as if a lifetime in this world would be too short, and Kia didn’t want her time to end as long as she remained in Byan’s warm embrace. Byan made her feel valued, especially
Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 31. My Destiny
The door opened from the outside, allowing two figures to step into the Presidential Suite. They both walked in silence toward the master bedroom, despite the noise of thoughts racing in their minds. “I need to make a call,” Byan said to Kia, who had been following him closely, her hand still in his grip. The girl nodded slowly with a small smile. “I’ll wait for you on the balcony.” “You don’t have to go anywhere, Kia. This conversation isn’t a secret,” Byan stated firmly, his dark eyes locking onto hers, trying to decipher what she was thinking, as she had grown unusually quiet. “It’s okay, Byan. I just want to get some fresh air,” Kia replied, her tone giving an excuse. Byan remained silent for a moment, his gaze fixed on her beautiful face and enchanting smile. However, he knew deep down that Kia was hiding something behind that expression. 'That damn Bara! This is all his fault,' Byan cursed inwardly. Yes, Bara’s arrival at the family dinner had worsened an already tense
Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 30. A Tense Dinner
Byan and Kia walked together towards the VIP section of the restaurant, a luxurious private room that could accommodate up to 25 people.Tonight, Kia looked truly stunning. Her makeup perfectly accentuated her already flawless beauty, and the black off-shoulder dress Byan had bought for her fit her figure perfectly.Despite her impeccable appearance, her heart was pounding relentlessly, even though Byan kept reassuring her that there was nothing to worry about."There they are," Byan pointed at a group of people standing and chatting, each holding a cocktail.Clinging to Byan's right arm, Kia tried to walk gracefully, even though she felt as if she might trip over her own feet from the nervousness.A young woman, strikingly beautiful and around Kia's age, was the first to notice Byan and Kia’s arrival. Her eyes widened, and she quickly moved toward them."Byan!" The young woman’s radiant smile was as bright as the morning sun, drawing everyone's attention to the couple."Hello, Nai."
Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 29. The Meeting
Byan opened the door to his Presidential Suite when he heard the soft chime of the doorbell.After making sure the blanket was snugly covering Kia's body and confirming that she was still sound asleep, Byan quickly stepped out of the master bedroom and headed for the door."Hello, good evening, Byan," greeted a smiling face from behind the door.Byan returned the middle-aged man’s friendly smile. "Please, come in, Dr. Indra," he said, gesturing him inside.Dr. Indra had been the on-call medical officer at the Samudra family resort for many years. The two of them then entered and sat on the large dark-brown leather sofa.Dr. Indra placed his medical bag on the table and took a long look at the bandage wrapped around Byan’s right hand, now stained with blood seeping through the fabric."May I see your hand?" he asked.Byan raised his injured hand, glanced briefly at the blood-soaked bandage, and extended it toward the doctor."Well, well, have you been working too hard with that injured
Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 28. A Painful Love
"I'm okay, Baby. Please don't cry anymore, alright?" Byan gently wiped away the tears streaming from Kia's tired, brown eyes. The girl hadn’t stopped crying, her tears flowing uncontrollably since earlier—an overwhelming mix of relief and lingering shock. "I-I can’t... can’t stop, Byan. My tears... they just keep falling..." The girl, with her long hair disheveled from crying, was still sobbing when Byan pulled her close into his arms. Kia instantly wrapped her arms around his waist, seeking comfort. Her eyes, wet and shining with tears, gazed up at Byan sorrowfully. "I'm so relieved you managed to defeat them, Byan. But at the same time... your hand... hic..." Kia shifted her gaze to Byan's right hand, which was wrapped in bandages. His hand had been injured when Byan instinctively blocked a knife aimed at his head. Kia’s crying only grew louder, which made Byan chuckle softly. "Hey, it’s just a minor injury, Kia. I’ll be fine in a few days. You heard the doctor yourself, didn’t

Married??Kia suddenly froze in speechless silence upon hearing Byan's words.Did Byan just propose to her? Did she hear him right? But... how could it be? Haven't they only known each other for a few weeks?Okay, maybe more than just a few weeks. Almost two months, to be exact. Two months!!"Uhm, Byan—""You don’t have to answer right now, sweetheart." A soft chuckle escaped Byan’s lips as he watched Kia, confused and seemingly lost for words. So adorable."I’ll wait for your answer, no matter how long it takes, and trust me... I will never change my mind or take back my proposal," he said, smiling as he gazed into Kia's beautiful eyes."But... are you really sure you want to marry... me?" Kia asked, her curiosity piqued."I’ve never been this sure about any decision in my life," Byan replied with unwavering conviction."But... isn’t it a little... uhm...""What? Impulsive?" Byan finished Kia’s hesitant sentence with a blunt question.He then moved closer, their noses almost touching
Tempted By A Handsome Stranger 26. A Desire Born From The Heart
Kia could only sit still on Byan’s lap, her back resting helplessly against his hard, muscular chest. Her entire body felt utterly exhausted, yet the relentless thrusts from below forced soft moans from her lips, drowning her in the pleasure Byan had been giving her for what seemed like an eternity.The bed they had shared was now a mess, the sheets soaked in sweat and love’s essence. Finally, Byan picked her up, carrying her to the sofa to continue their fiery passion.Today, Byan was far more intense than ever before, driven by the immense relief of having shared the lifelong burdens he’d carried with Kia. His steps were lighter, his soul felt free.Only with Kia could he bare everything, to this beautiful woman now moaning with her eyes closed. Byan relished the feel of Kia’s smooth, sweat-slicked skin under his touch. Ah... it drove him wild. Making love to Kia always sent him into madness because her enticing body always felt divine.Byan gently grasped Kia’s chin, turning her
