After forcing me to dress up, Thane now led me to a fancy restaurant. This place makes me feel small. I'd never been to a restaurant like this before, so many things were now on my mind. About the way rich people should behave, move, and be ethical. I didn't have all that knowledge and feared embarrassing Thane with my behavior later.Thane had reserved a table for us, and he quickly told the waiter about the reservation Thane's assistant had made. The waiter directed us to a table by the window, with a beautiful view of the outside lights. Not only that, but the restaurant also had melodious jazz music playing inside. Apparently, this was the kind of atmosphere Thane had always had. Unlike me, who never thought I would be in this place. Everyone was wearing fancy clothes and accessories. Although they looked ordinary, I knew how much their jewelry and clothes cost."Thane, don't you have anywhere else to eat?" I asked myself. Of course, I wouldn't be able to ask directly. That would
until now, I didn't understand Thane's way of thinking. That man always left me wondering and confused with every sentence from his lips. Like a few moments ago, a ruling that was so creepy was thrown out after an accidental meeting with Liam.My steps followed Thane until they reached the front of the car. Thane stopped his steps and looked sharply at me. I was sure Thane would be furious this time, just like before. Was I going to be his main target?A bodyguard opened the door for me and Thane, but three men in black suits arrived before we entered. They stood behind Thane and made him turn around. I felt so scared. Was this going to end like I thought?Their faces looked scary, even scarier than Thane's. My heart was racing from the fear that came after seeing them. "Thane?" I tried to call out to Thane in a low voice, but he didn't turn to look at me and instead stared at the three men in front of him.Suddenly, Thane pushed my body to get into the car. I sat in the car seat, an
I haven't seen Thane for a few days now. After the incident at the restaurant, I guess that time was the trigger. I don't even know how Thane is doing right now. After arriving at the penthouse, he just left without letting me in.Maybe Thane was going to settle the dispute that had just happened. I heard his words in the car at that time. There was fear when I heard that Thane would retaliate against those who had attacked him, but on the other hand, Thane's strength was not in doubt.After that, until now, there was no news that Mia gave me about Thane. Thane didn't want to tell me about his current situation. "Huh... this atmosphere is getting boring like before. I need to distract myself so I don't drown in the situation," I muttered as I looked up at the darkening sky behind the bedroom window.I've been doing some activities like before. Reading books, playing with my cell phone, and shopping online. Sometimes, I even went downstairs, where the gym was. Whenever I was there, it
I covered my mouth with both hands as Thane turned towards me. The Thane in front of me looked different like he wasn't the Thane who had been with me. It was like hallucinating, but it was confirmed when I sharpened my vision.I saw Thane's eyes change color. This time, the color seemed to glow because of the moonlight. It looked so golden and made me step back. "Is he really the Thane I've been with?" I asked myself.My whole body now felt stiff. I was like frozen after seeing Thane, who was so scary. In fact, Thane was still standing where he was. The look in his eyes didn't leave me, making me feel like he wanted to pounce on me.I couldn't feel comfortable and safe when I saw the figure before me. Although he was Thane, it didn't seem like the real thing. Is it possible that Thane has a brother?My position here was like an easy prey ready to be eaten. However, what was in front of me was not a wild animal, but Thane-the man who bought me.My body trembled, and the fear made me
I struggled as Thane began to play with his touch on my body. He kept attacking me, saying that I wanted all of this. No! I didn't even want this to happen.As much as I begged, Thane even seemed to cover his ears to not hear my whining. He didn't stop kissing my neck and inhaling the scent of my body. Ticklish, the taste made me uncomfortable.Several times, I felt his fingers touching my naked area. Rubbing gently and making my legs kick carelessly."Thane, please... didn't you promise?" I asked softly.My body felt weak since Thane was on top of me. No matter how much energy I exerted, it would be useless to fight him. That enormous body was right on top of me, without him thinking about how much weight I was carrying. Thane really seemed to be possessed by something. What he said and did, I don't think any of it was driven by consciousness."It's a lie if you say you don't want it, Elin. I'll prove that my body also wants the same thing as me," said Thane, who then held my hand an
Thane's play was so gentle. His touch made me feel like the most beloved woman. However, I continued to resist everything Thane did. My body struggled, pushing as hard as I could to get Thane out of his position.Several times, Thane sipped at my chest as if it was a toy he could play with. I couldn't deny that this activity did indeed increase my passion. However, I don't want to continue because this is not what I want.Shouldn't a man keep his word? However, Thane went back on his word. He touched me before I gave myself up voluntarily. Now, he was playing with my body as if I permitted him to explore it."Thane, stop, please." Even though I knew he wouldn't listen to me, I still tried to make him aware of this activity.Thane chuckled, then brought his face closer to my ear. "Get ready, darling. I'm going to start this game."Hearing that sentence made me swallow. My body tensed up, my mind unable to imagine what he would do after this. Thane bit my ear and blew a wind that sent c
My eyes woke up with a face that was both happy and embarrassed. This was all because Thane and I were still on the same bed, not wearing a single thread. There was only a blanket temporarily covering our bodies.I glimpsed Thane's face, still deep in sleep. He looked so charming and handsome despite not wearing his suit.Not wanting to get lost in my thoughts about last night's activities, I decided to get out of bed and walk towards the bathroom. Just as my feet stepped on the floor, my bottom felt painful. I grimaced and bit my lip to endure the pain."Akh, shit! Why is it only hurting now?" thought I, who was now trying to walk towards the bathroom even though I was a little limping.Upon entering the bathroom, I started preparing soap and some aroma therapy mixtures for the bath. Yes, I wanted to spend my bath time soaking. I mixed everything in the bathtub and stirred it a little so the foam would come out.After that, I got into the bathtub and soaked my whole body. Slowly, I r
[Thane's POV]I wasn't that interested in auctions, but this time was different. Two days ago, someone told me there would be an auction for a woman. I heard that she was the collateral currently in Brams' hands. If I would typically send my assistant to be there, this time I went myself.There was a feeling that I would find someone to be my mate, either from the guests present or perhaps the rumored woman. At the very least, I should be around her, smell her scent, and use my instincts like a hunter.I am now preparing to head to the auction venue. I had prepared myself, so I wouldn't make a mistake when looking for that woman. I'm not one to let my chosen woman go to someone else."Sir, the car is ready," said my assistant, who opened the car door for me.I was on my way to pick up that woman. The woman who would become my mate, and I would mark her so that no one could touch her but me.As my car entered the basement area, I told my assistant to ensure the information she had gott
