“How long are you going to stand there?” Lucas, who was already sitting on the bed, seemed to unbutton his sleeves, without looking at Ellena who was still standing near the hotel room door.

“I-I-I—”

“Don’t think I’m happy to share the same room with you!” Lucas interrupted as he got up from his seat, then glared at Ellena’s face.

“That’s impossible, because you’re not the woman I expected. Look! Your appearance alone is not on my level!” Lucas gave her a disdainful look, then rushed to the bathroom.

Lucas’ words this time really hurt Ellena. It felt like being hit by a sledgehammer. How could Lucas say it, when himself forced Ellena to marry him.

“He thinks I’m also happy to be in the same room with him? If it weren’t for compulsion, I wouldn’t want to be in this position either. How annoying!” Ellena grumbled, just as Lucas closed the bathroom door.

“I heard what you said!” Lucas’ scream from inside the bathroom made Ellena flinch slightly, then pursed her lips.

“Oh my God, he heard what I said,,” Ellena muttered.

Ellena sat at the dressing table, staring at her reflection in the large mirror. She was silent for a moment, watching her face while contemplating her fate. There was so much going on in her mind this time. In fact, She was also thinking about where to sleep tonight.

She thought, tonight will not be able to sleep well. How could it be, when the one who became her roommate was Lucas? Even though Lucas had promised not to touch her, she still felt worried. Worried if Lucas forgot or didn’t realize.

Ellena was silent for a long time in front of the mirror. She began to remove the makeup on her head one by one, without taking her eyes off the mirror. However, suddenly the sound of the bathroom door opening made her flinch, then turned around.

“Aarrrgh!” shouted Ellena swiftly covering her face with both hands.

Of course she was very surprised, when she saw a sight that might for some women was an amazing sight, but she did not think.

How can Lucas be shirtless, showing his six pack body. Meanwhile, Ellena was in the room?

After all Ellena was only a contract wife to Lucas and she had no right to enjoy the beauty of every inch of the man’s body, even if it was only through eyes. After all, looking at Lucas’ current appearance, it made Ellena feel disgusted and amused.

“What did you see? Why are you so surprised?” Lucas stared at Elena wide-eyed.

He was still standing in front of the bathroom door. Hearing Ellena who suddenly screamed when she saw him, of course made him jump a little. What did the woman see that made her act like that? he thought.

Ellena still didn’t dare to open her eyes. To be honest, this was her first experience seeing a shirtless man in the room. That’s why she was very surprised, when she saw Lucas was only wearing a towel that covered his waist to his knees.

“It’s your first time seeing a scene like this, huh?” Lucas threw another question while glaring at Ellena cynically. However, Ellena did not respond.

“Is he really that innocent?” Lucas muttered as he walked to the wardrobe.

Lucas was seen wearing a plain white t-shirt combined with black shorts. When he was done, he turned back to face Ellena.

“How long are you going to cover your face like that? Are you afraid I’ll eat you?”

Lucas threw the towel on the bed. He looked at Ellena who was still covering her face.

“Don’t dream you! Do you think I’m interested in touching you? No!” he said sarcastically.

Once again, Ellena felt humiliated by the man who had only been her husband for a few hours. Somehow Lucas behavid like that to her. In fact, she was already willing to be the man’s contract wife. Even though Lucas didn’t really want it, she was sure that the man would benefit from the marriage.

Yes, of course. Because there’s no way Lucas would be willing to marry a poor woman like her, if there wasn’t something he would benefit from.

Lucas immediately rushed out of the hotel room.

Hearing the sound of footsteps accompanied by the sound of the door closing, made Ellena realize that Lucas had left the room. She slowly opened her eyes, looking around the room through her fingers. Immediately she took a deep breath, then lowered her hands from her face.

“Lucky he’s gone. I’d be crazy if I was in the same room with him all the time!” Ellena grumbled, then rose from her seat.

Without waiting long, she immediately went into the bathroom to perform the ritual of cleansing the body. After a day of being an impromptu queen, it actually made her feel sticky all over her body.

A few minutes passed, Ellena had finished with her activities. She was already wearing the cream colored ethnic print pajamas that she had brought from the boarding house. She had deliberately brought a long-sleeved nightgown and several sets of clothes that were quite closed, because she didn’t want to present every sexy curve of his body to Lucas, who was only her contract husband.

Remembering Lucas who had not returned, made Ellena instantly smile happily. Yeah, I hope Lucas doesn’t come back to that room again, she thought.

Drowsiness began to hit. Ellena seemed to climb the bed, then lay her body there. However, just as she was about to pull the blanket off, she suddenly heard someone opening the door. It’s clear who it is.

Ellena relented, then raised her body again. Now she was sitting on the bed, cursing her own stupidity.

“Ah, why don’t I just lock the door. Just let him sleep outside,” she whispered.

“What? You’re going to let me sleep outside?”

The baritone voice instantly made Ellena jump. She looked up, then looked at Lucas’ face who was now standing two meters in front of her. For some reason the man’s ears were so sharp that he could hear whatever she was saying, albeit in a low tone.

“Who the hell are you to just let me sleep outside?” Lucas glared at Elena’s face.

“Sorry, Sir, that’s not what I meant.” Ellena got out of bed and stood in front of Lucas.

“Then what do you mean? Are you really afraid I’ll eat you tonight, huh?” Lucas looked at Ellena probingly.

His net started to touch every inch of Selena’s body who was standing slightly bent over at that time

“Sorry, Sir, b-b-but—”

“With you acting like this, it makes me really curious about you, Elle.” Lucas smirked as he cast a sensual gaze at Ellena.
