Reese's eyes widened in an instant. She realized the situation and immediately started struggling frantically.

However, Lukas tasted a bit of sweetness. Driven by the alcohol and clouded judgment, his strength became astonishing. He seemed as if he wanted to crush Reese into himself.

Reese's struggles were in vain, and her eyes turned red from frustration.

Lukas's imposing aura surrounded Reese, like a conqueror laying siege to a fortress.

Lukas rubbed his face with his hand, pressed his tongue against the inside of his mouth, and stared at Reese with deep, suppressed anger. "We agreed to fulfill the marital agreement before we get the certificate."

Reese's face turned red with anger, and her eyes were filled with a deep sense of grievance. "That's different. At the very least, it should be willingly. Were you trying to force yourself just now?"
