MasukSvanna held her breath as the scent of cologne filled the air. Nightroe's intoxicating scent, but she didn't have the courage to turn and look at the man's face."I think I need to borrow my wife for a moment."That’s what Nightroe said. Instinctively, Svanna made eye contact with her father. Hoping Heldfan would say no, though the middle-aged man seemed to have great hesitation in refusing.“You can ask Anna directly if you really want to talk alone.”There was a pause, until Nightroe pulled her waist closer to him. Svanna swallowed hard when Nightroe's mouth kissed her hair, which she could feel on her scalp. She didn't understand what the man was trying to show her. Perhaps Nightroe was deliberately showing a romantic side as a newlywed couple in front of Heldfan.Svanna snorted softly. It shouldn't be necessary. She didn't expect them to create an atmosphere that was difficult to ignore, considering that everything would soon be over. Their marriage might soon end with the presenc
"Good news, Sir. Miss Whitney has made remarkable progress after four years of waiting. I can't say for sure when she will regain consciousness, but it could be very soon. Talk to Miss Whitney often; it will send positive signals to her brain and help her improve significantly."Svanna had to hold her breath when she accidentally stepped into the hospital corridor, then hid behind a curved wall. Nightroe was there, talking to a doctor. She was sure that the way her husband was paying serious attention there was a sign of his concern for Yohanna.Yohana Whitney. Svanna could never forget that woman's last name. She had hoped she wouldn't remember anything about the events of four years ago, but it was all in vain. Every detail that happened between them, she never forgot a single thing.It was painful to see the look of hope on Nightroe's face when he heard the good news about Yohana's condition. Svanna unconsciously clutched the fabric of her clothes. She squeezed it gently, as if tha
"Ms, your dinner is ready..."It took Svanna a moment to comprehend her surroundings. It felt incredibly difficult to open her eyes. Half of her body felt completely broken, but Alina's presence clearly urged her to get up immediately.The woman smiled after placing the tray with dinner on the nightstand. There was a glass of milk, which Svanna didn't understand... why it looked like a special menu.While trying to remember some previous things; about the sex activities she had with Nightroe. She then gasped; quite afraid to imagine some unwanted prospects. Looking down, Svanna immediately breathed a sigh of relief that she was fully clothed; wearing Nightroe's plain shirt from earlier. Did that man arrange everything?Now where had Nightroe gone?Svanna's mind wondered when she didn't see anyone else. Nightroe left with almost no clue. This shouldn't be news. The man was always like that. He always left after all his needs were regularly met. After all, she should have been aware tha
11"But this isn't my job. I'm not selling myself," she said with a great panic attack.Especially since the man immediately whispered, "Serving me is your job."Without warning, Nightroe’s large hands pulled her legs back so she was lying on her back again. Svanna felt the terrible thrusts almost made her cry, but a light touch soon calmed her. Nightroe only did that brief action, even quickly removing the stray strands of hair around her face and how those sapphire eyes stared at her lips without adding any comment.It felt too sudden, and their kiss left a sensation that Svanna couldn't avoid. She tried to stop Nightroe's hand when he made another move. He traced several parts of her body—eliciting a brief response, but Svanna tried hard to restrain herself.She instinctively touched Nightroe's hand. Stopping him from slipping his fingers under her thin underwear.A faint growl made Svanna feel uncertain. Nervous; between letting Nightroe continue or continuing to prevent the man's
Svanna grimaced, not because Nightroe was causing her pain, but because she was too afraid to imagine the worst-case scenario. She wasn't ready. Suddenly, the man pulled her up.Tension spread through Svanna’s body as she felt Nightroe’s touch and the way he held her tightly. The smell of cigarettes and a hint of alcohol filled the air they shared. Had Nightroe started drinking again?Svanna’s mind wondered, but why?Slowly, she looked around, searching for something that could be a clue. Under the bed was a bottle of vodka. Was that it?This time, there was no crucial reaction when Svanna dove into Nightroe's sapphire irises. Perhaps they made eye contact for too long, so she was almost transfixed, then brought back to her senses by a push that made her fall onto her back on the mattress."Just be obedient. I'll treat you gently."Nightroe's words made Svanna's heart react significantly again. She couldn't do anything as the creaking of the bed took over the situation between them.N
The faint sound of Nightroe taking action made Svanna quietly try to find out. She peeked a little. Swallowed hard as she watched the man take something out of his pants pocket—a box—and then her desire to get out of bed seemed unstoppable."Don't leave this place until I'm done with my business."The man was going to smoke. Svanna could conclude that much correctly. There was a beautiful resistance within her, but she didn't try to protest—even though it had gathered in her throat. Actually, it wasn't difficult. She just needed to say everything. Irony behind irony. Svanna chose to remain silent; she agreed, then sat on the sofa while staring blankly at the bed. There was always a slight pain when she remembered Nightroe often spending time with Yohana there; whatever they had done; sharing feelings and various other touches of love. Unconsciously, Svanna smiled wryly. The air around her felt so stifling. Something inside her always reminded her not to hope. She wanted it all to be
