Selena woke up and found that the man's breath was blowing around his nape—along with a burly hand that wrapped around the body possessively.
Eros is strange, what else when the man blatantly states that he is interested in Selena. Yep. Selena won't be that easy to believe. If what Eros says is the truth, Selena does not understand what to do, because her own feelings are false.
Selena does not want to get back stuck in a marriage that was never based on love from the beginning. But what if Eros will finally love her?
Selena inched as she glanced at Eros who was bare-chested under the white blanket that covered both of their bodies. Selena was slightly jolted when the man suddenly changed his position to face down, so the scar on her back was visible.
The wound...Eros gets injured for trying to save Selena. The seams look in contrast to Eros' white skin.
Selena unconsciously stuck out her hand to touch the scar. Rough and slightly raised. It must have hurt a lot. However, what pain would Eros endure so far if the man never complained about the wounds on his back?
Selena recalls how Eros only scrunched her forehead when Emilia stabbed her with a knife. The man was still able to act calm when his life was at the tip of the horn. That's why Selena was scared. Afraid of seeing Eros who seemed immune to all the pain he received—except about heartache.
“Your hands are cold.”
Selena was stunned, hurriedly pulling her hand as Eros made a sound and turned her body.
The man grinned. “Why?” he said in a seductive tone. “Secretly admire me, hmm?”
Selena rolled her eyeballs. “Omong empty.”
The woman was about to get out of bed but Eros quickly pulled her hand so that Selena fell over her body.
“What are you—emmh!”
Morning kiss's.
His waist was held tightly by those two burly hands. Selena felt her fingers tremble when she accidentally touched the chest of Eros's field that was not covered by anything. It's too intimate.
Selena almost bit Eros' lips as the man's hand came down to feel his distended stomach from behind the nightgown she was wearing. Selena moaned because of the amused and sensation that somehow made her feel comfortable. Gradually he was swept away by the treatment of the man.
Geck! Geck! Geck!
Cumbuan Eros stop. Half growling with annoyance, the man got up and sat Selena on the bed. Without bothering to take anything to cover his upper body, Eros walked casually towards the door and conversed with a man in a black suit.
And then Selena realized something. His eyes were staring at his surroundings. He inched to walk towards the window and revealed the white curtains covering it.
Selena's eyes widened to look at the view of a sea and a city that looks so small from behind the window. This is not a hotel room, this is—
“Love, right?” Eros clasped Selena's neck and kissed the woman's cheek.
Selena gulps. “I'm where?”
“Jet. Ten more minutes we'll land on Phuket.”
“You kidnapped me,” Selena said half angrily.
“No husband abducts his wife.”
Selena turned around and looked up to stare at Eros sharply. “Didn't our relationship initially be based solely on your revenge on Emilia?”
Eros jaw hardens. “Now has nothing to do with Emilia anymore.”
“Is that?” Selena smiled obliquely. “Then what? Because you're interested in me? Or because you want this child in my womb?”
Next to Eros' hand gripped Selena's jaw. The man brought their faces closer, so when Eros spoke, their lips touched.
“The longer your mouth gets nasty, yes.”
Selena brushed off Eros' hand and passed him in a rough step. “Since the beginning you never appreciated me, why do I show you my manners?”
Eros.
...appreciate?

This time it was not a hotel. Eros rented a villa by the beach. It was like a private villa as there were no other buildings around it. It looks very private and closed.
Selena enjoys the breeze while staring away at the blue sea— at a glance looks to blend with the sky. Then he rubbed his stomach, remembering that his womb was almost five months old. For half a year he was stuck with Eros, and he never understood what the man was thinking.
“Prepare for dinner,” Eros said when Selena was about to open the room door.
The woman turned her head and found fresh-looking Eros with half wet hair. “Why should I prepare? It was just dinner.”
Selena shrugged her shoulders indifferently and opened the door. His eyes were round seeing a room that was quite spacious and surrounded by glass windows with white curtains. In front of him was a Jacuzzi next to the swimming pool. Then around the room all that is seen is a clear view of the sea.
World heaven, wouldn't it be too much if Selena called it that?
Selena took off her sandals and put her feet in the pool water. The woman sighed softly. Really cool and cold. He wanted to soak in the pool all day. And now it seemed as if his sense of regret disappeared for a moment.
“Hmm? Miss Selena?”
Selena's aghast. The woman quickly turned around and found a blond woman staring at her. The woman looked beautiful and fashionable.
“I Chatherine,” said the woman lowered her head slowly. “Tuan Eros told me to help you choose a dress.”
Selena frowning. “Gaun?” He did not even bring a small piece of clothing, except for the nightgown he was wearing now.
“Yes. For dinner later.” Chatherine smiled kindly. “Mari.”

Alex no longer uses a wheelchair. He was able to walk even though he still had to be helped with a buffer.
Eros prepared an apartment close to the hospital for his residence during this time. Just like Eros, Alex also hates hospitals.
Staring at the view of the blue sky, Alex sat on a sofa and took a sip of warm tea. He is not ready to return home and meet with Emilia after all the things Eros told him at the time.
It feels like to talk he has trouble. Disbelief and disappointment seemed to make him choose to be silent and contemplated.
Reflect on everything, including the child in the womb Emilia. Whatever Emilia has done, Alex still loves the boy. And the love for Emilia was not that easy to lose.
Alex took a breath. He was too tired to cry, but the pain was still in his heart.
Suddenly the apartment bell rang. Alex blinked slowly, with a slightly retrained step he walked towards the door.
The man was pecking.
“Oh Lord..” Andreas swerved and almost collapsed to the floor. “Mr Alex..”.
“Andreas..”.

It was such a beautiful black dress, Selena admitted it. Dangled so gracefully that the ankles and split on one side— feature Selena's white and level legs.
A man led him to the beach and there was Eros standing in a black suit. Waiting patiently while continuing to stare at him sharply. The man then extended his hand as Selena got closer from the range. The man who escorted her bowed slowly before leaving them in silence.
Eros raised his eyebrows when Selena did not welcome his open hand.
“I can walk by myself,” reject Selena blatantly.
Eros shook his head and lowered his hand. “No. You can't walk alone.” The man grabbed something from inside his pants pocket and stood to the back of Selena's body.
“What are you doing?” selena asked suspiciously.
“Give you a surprise.”
Darkened.
Both of Selena's eyes were covered in a black cloth tied by Eros. The man quickly held Selena's hands together before she rebelled.
“Eros!”
“Ya, so. Say my name.” Eros whispered softly in Selena's ear.
Selena growling. “What do you want to do?!”
“I told you, give surprise.”
Eros leads Selena on a luxury yacht waiting by the beach. In the middle of the ship was prepared a dining table and two chairs along with various kinds of seafood.
Eros pulled out a chair and sat Selena there, after which her yacht began to move away from the beach.
Selena blinked slowly as Eros opened the bond that covered her eyes. There were various foods and candles burning on the table with white cloth. And Selena realized that she was standing on a yacht moving away from the villa.
“How?” Eros sat across the chair and grinned. “Do these look like regular dinners to you?”
