The Million-Dollar Heart

Richard's mood was as gloomy as the stormy weather outside, a deep frown etched on his face, betraying his inner turmoil.

On the TV screen, Mara appeared again, barefoot, with a subtle sway of her hips, having changed into a deliberately provocative outfit-a sheer black lace nightgown, abandoning her previous innocent facade for that of a seductive temptress.

Biting her lower lip, she refused to believe that all her efforts wouldn't sway Nathan. Tonight, she was determined to have her desires fulfilled.

With that thought, she moved to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, retrieving the drug she'd acquired once more, dissolving it into the drink.

Returning to Nathan, she found him slumped on the couch, his eyes tightly shut, not finding peace even in his drunken slumber.

Frustration turning her face red, Mara clenched her fists. She wasn't willing to give up now, not when she'd waited this long for the moment. Carefully, she lifted his head and helped him drink the water, worried about waking him and ruining her plan.

As Nathan swallowed the drugged water, Mara's eyes sparkled with excitement this drug was even more potent than the previous one.

She struck a pose on the floor, eagerly anticipating Nathan's affection, convinced that he wouldn't be able to resist her.

Nathan's body suddenly heated up, his cheeks flushing a deep red as he felt as though his body was on fire. His eyes snapped open, an uncontrollable urge leading him towards Mara.

With a click, his fingers reached for his belt, unbuckling it in one swift motion.

Mara had been waiting for this moment, her eyelashes fluttering as she closed her eyes, lying seductively on the floor in anticipation.

Suddenly, a loud snap startled Mara, her eyes wide open in shock, frozen in place.
