nNote: Snu-Snu scene ahead, 18

nNik's Pov

nLast week was tormenting, at least my daughter made sure of it when not being haunted by Maya's shadow.

n

"This is your whole fault!

" Isabelle would rage glaring at me with full intensity.

n

"Everything was going perfectly until you ruined it, I hate you!!!

"

nShe would say and run back to her room banging the door so hard that the whole house would rattle from the impact while I'll stay up drinking and coming up with my schemes.

nI made my private guard follow Maya and monitor all her activities. For some reason, I felt uncomfortable about her threat of sleeping with other men to pay for the breach of contract. No one had the right to touch her save me.

nMy phone rang disturbing the tranquility that was being observed a while ago. I picked the phone noticing the I.D and felt a twinge of fear. Had she made true of her threat?

nNormally, my private guard doesn't call, just text me up on her progress but today was the first time he called, and possibly, something bad was about to happen.

nI was startled by a sudden pain only to discover the cigarette was burnt out and the crumbs were burning my hand already.

n

"Hello,

" I said, my voice deep and bothered, dumping the cigarette butts in an ashtray and grabbed a glass of wine beside it.

nI listened to the information on the other end anxiously and with rapt attention. All of a sudden, the glass slipped from my hand scattering to pieces upon contact with the ground.

nI frowned trying to take in the information. She seems to be entering a hotel carried in the arms of a man?

nI can't seem to remember how I grabbed my jacket and left the room, completely ignoring my housekeeper who looks like she was about to ask my opinion on something, or how I entered my car and drove here.

nRoyal Paradise

nI stood watching the intimidating hotel in disdain, she dared to come in here with a man? Royal paradise was not an ordinary hotel, it was specially designed for the rich and mighty, so ordinary people dared not imagine coming in here.

nHow do I know?

nBecause it belongs to my family.

nSo whoever she might have come with tonight has a lot in his bank account.

nAs soon as I entered, I spotted my private guard at a corner of the hotel lounge and he nodded acknowledging my presence.

n

"Sir

" The manager greeted, heading towards my direction. Judy, the private guard I had to follow Maya must have informed them of my coming.

n

"You shouldn't have told them

" I scolded Judy who wasn't disturbed at all he didn't even take it seriously

"Now everyone's going to poke their noses

"

nHe smiled, not the kind or warm one but the one that says f*ck you

n

"You should have known the old man wouldn't let this go when you stopped me from protecting you, instead of the woman you've begun to have feelings for,

" He said, shooing away the manager who obviously was disappointed he couldn't get into my good book.

nNot in the mood now, mister!

nI froze in my tracks

"I don't have feelings for her, I'm just concerned about her

" I tried to make it clear to him but I should've known by now Judy doesn't give a damn about feelings.

n

"Well, apparently the woman you risked your life for the past days is in a hotel room with another man.

"

nI shuddered knowing what Judy meant. The fact was every high and mighty family like ours had their dirty secret or rather their skeleton in the wardrobe.

nReaching to be number one in this city and the world wasn't always achieved with clean hands.

nWe have our underworld forces which oftentimes carry out some dirty deeds for the government and some organizations in return for a favor. Huge thanks to that, it doesn't leave us in short of enemies.

nSo every member of our family is assigned with guards and a shadow guard. Shadow guards are the highest and formidable guards skilled enough to be in charge of our lives in the secret.

nThey never expose themselves during a mission except to the person they are assigned to neither do they get involved unless the ordinary guards fail and in dire situations.

nThey are specialized in keeping the Spencer clan alive so it isn't a surprise if a shadow guard dies in place of us.

nSince we have a lot of enemies, it was so much a risk asking him to guard Maya instead of me. If anything had happened to me within that period, he would've paid with his life.

n'Don't worry

" I retorted

"I'll shoulder every blame

" I assured him and stepped into the elevator as he stepped in too

nThere was a deafening silence in the elevator, nor of us daring to speak cause we were too preoccupied with our thoughts. I clenched my fist by my side hoping and praying that I wasn't going to witness what I had already imagined in my heart.

nWith a ding, the elevator door opened and we walked out with Judy directing me to the said room as I studied it cautiously.

nRoom 404

nI raised my hand to open it but froze midway. What if she was in the arms of another man moaning the way she had done when she was in my arms? What if she prefers this new man to me?

nI swallowed deeply taking hold of the doorknob, it was now or never.

nImmediately I pushed open the door, I was shocked to the core. She was lying beneath a strange man, I thought repeatedly until I noticed something.

nShe seems to be struggling

nI thought I was imagining things until I heard a broken whisper

n

"Help..me

"

nThe man was so engrossed in the act that he didn't notice me until I flung him halfway across the room. He yelped as I rushed him not giving him a chance to regain his footing

n

"Who are you...

" I punched the words right out of his mouth before he screamed, struggling to escape from my hold.

n

"How dare you!!

"I raged, punching the daylight out of him. My eyes were dark and wild, I was bloodthirsty and would have completely wasted him if Judy hadn't called my attention.

n

"Something is wrong with the girl

" Judy called out while I turned to watch her moan loudly, moving and grinding against the pillow she had placed in between her legs to relieve herself

nMy eyes narrowed at once, she's drugged!

nI turned to the suspected perpetrator and kicked him hard in the stomach as he toppled over.

n

"You dare to drug her! You motherf*cking son of a b*tch

" I roared only to be dragged back by Judy. I raised a brow at his action

n

"Take care of the girl, I'll take care of the idiot

" he assured, taking hold of the fool who had passed out already and threw him over his shoulder as if he weighed nothing.

nHis strength indeed marvels me

nImmediately Judy left with the fool, I made a few calls before attending to Maya. She was sweating profusely and rubbing her thighs together after the pillow seems to have failed In satisfying her.

n

" Maya

" I called reaching out my hands and wiping away the beads of sweat on her forehead. Everything made sense now, Judy was wrong in his report.

nMaya wasn't carried to the hotel rather she was dragged to a hotel. I felt a tight feeling in my chest when I tried to imagine what would've happened if I hadn't had someone follow her or if I wasn't here on time.

nI was momentarily startled when arms wrapped around my neck and were squashed to a certain soft body. Hands hungry with need rummaged throughout my body instantly waking the beast in me.

nI opened my mouth to protest but was suddenly assaulted by delicate lips. It wasn't gentle nor romantic but hurried, ravaging, scorching and demanding. God, I'm losing my mind here.

nAs if that wasn't enough, I was suddenly tipped over, and before I realized what was happening she straddled me, totally subduing me.

n

"My God

"I groaned when she bit on my neck leaving a hickey there. Scorching kisses that seem to leave a trail surrounded my neck as she savagely suckled there.

nIf I thought I was in hell, then I was totally in the lake of fire when she suddenly moved against my crotch.

nI clutched the sheet tightly while gritting my teeth as she moved repeatedly against my crotch following a rhythm of her own.

nI knew I would regret it forever if I touched her in this state of mind. If I would make love to her, it would be in her right frame of mind with her agreement and permission.

nSo for once, I had to sacrifice my body for her self-gratification but I wasn't sure how long I would hold onto that notion cause I was slowly losing my self-control .

nWhatever drug they gave to her, they must have given her a heavy and excessive dose of it cause it made her particularly strong and insatiable.

nEven after the first wave of orgasm hit her, she was excited again almost immediately, continuing where she stopped.

nThis time when she rocked against me, she increased her tempo moaning and throwing her head back, delirious with pleasure.

nFeeling my bulging little man was going to explode from her torturous dance, I grabbed her waist hoping to push her down but my hands somehow ended up resting on her butt which was missing an item of certain clothing.

nO. M .G

nIf only she knew what she was doing to me. With my last sense of reasoning, I pushed her down and ended up trapping her with my body. She laughed. A sensual laugh that made my ears burn and my heart go pit-a-pat.

n

"Do you know who I am?

" I asked trying to confirm if she was indeed in her right state of mind.

n

"Yes

" She moaned writhing against me

n

"Who am I?

" I growled hoping it was going to scare her a little and buy me a little time but instead it heightened her excitement.

n

"Of course,

" She said,

" You're Nik f*cking Spencer

" She smirked, repeatedly arching her back and grinding against my length.

nThis surely was the sexiest thing a lady ever said to me but during this moment, anything sexy was a red flag.

nHer words prove she knew who she was with but her hormones were clouding her ability to make a discerning judgment.

n

"Come-on bad boy

" She purred dangerously close to my ears

" Just satisfy me

" she cooed, slipping her hands into my shirt and running her hands over my back and would've gone further if my belt didn't obstruct her.

nI knew I was between the devil and the blue sea, she wouldn't leave me if I didn't satisfy her neither would I leave her without satisfying her else she finds another person to do the job.

nSuddenly struck with an idea, I let my hands trail down until my fingers found her sensitive pearl. Maya shivered. making a soft moan as soon as I moved against her love button.

nHer wails intensified when the movement of my fingers increased as I pushed, twirled, teased, and rubbed the tip of her pearl.

nHer fingers dug into my back as she too found a movement that matched mine and soared higher until I felt her body tighten and suddenly convulse as she hit a rather strong orgasm this time.

nShe must have been really worn out as she lay still for a while, her eyes closed in contention while I tried to get my composure before it began all over again.

nMy breathing was heavy so I tried to steady it by inhaling in and out gently until I eventually calmed down.

nSuddenly my phone flashed.

nScrolling through the message sent to me, I was startled when I felt moisture touch the corner of my neck.

nAlmost immediately, her hands started roaming about my body and I knew it was beginning again.

nI gathered her with the bed sheet wrapped around her body since her gown was skimpily, added with the fact she wasn't wearing anything inside.

nI took her to another room I ordered to be prepared cause I couldn't stay in that room contaminated by that man.

nThroughout the short journey, I had to contend with her wandering hands and swore I would have her pay for all this torture when she's up and doing.

nDropping the sheet, I carried her into the bathroom and without any alert put her in the bathtub filled to the brim with ice cubes.

nMaya screamed trying to get out of the tub but I held her down as if that wasn't enough and turned on the cold shower as well.

nIt was an intense fight but as women would always be the weaker vessel, she eventually gave up exhausted.

nI couldn't tell how long she stayed in the bathtub but I let her out only after the sensual mist in her eyes was gone and she wouldn't stop shivering before she became hypothermic.

n

"How do you feel?

" I asked handling a towel as she received it.

n

"Soberly embarrassed

" She replied and I laughed at her choice of words. Then I smirked closing the space between us and whispered to her face

n

"Don't worry sweetheart there's a lot of time to correct that

"

nShe blushed and looked away awkwardly causing me to chuckle inside.

nAfter changing into a warm attire, I coerced her into taking medicine the staff had provided upon my command and a cup of warm milk which led her to sleep eventually.

nI watched over her, immersed in the way her chest gently rose and fell repeatedly. Her ink-black hair stumbled over her shoulder in waves. I studied her face trying to imprint every one of her features into my mind.

nMy hands trailed down her face admiring her clear and silky skin, slowly I ran my hands over her straight and pointed nose before settling on her lips. I outlined her lips finding it hard to believe that this small soft red delicate flesh had aided her in my torment moments ago.

nI suddenly had a ridiculous urge to suckle on it and would've agreed to that if a sudden knock on my door didn't only rattle but shatter such thought out of my mind.

n

"Come in,

" I said grumbly, he just seems to have a knack for stepping in at the wrong time.

nJudy came in, pulling the gloves in his hands away and I didn't need to guess what that glove was used for. It was obvious from the tiny spattered red spots on his shirt.

n

"What did you find out?

" I asked with my eyes still not leaving the sleeping figure on the bed. I was scared she would disappear if I dared to remove my eyes.

n

"Name is Tim Chou. He is a businessman and has a weird fetish of sleeping with willing drugged girls provided to him by a legal escort agency

"

nI frowned pinching the space between my eyebrows

"She didn't seem willing when I saved her. How did she get involved with the likes of him cause I do remember you told me she was here to see her sister

"

n

"That's the problem, I think this was a setup. Tim Chou claims he met her aroused and waiting for him on his bed and eventually thought she was one of the girls normally provided to him.

n

"I investigated the agency but there was no recent record nor evidence of them sending someone over cause Chou already has a contracted girl who takes care of him during his period of stay in this city and I think your woman was given the aphrodisiac by whosoever planned this during the meeting with her sister

"

nI felt a headache coming

"planned?

" I frowned deeply this time. Since Maya was carried into the hotel by an unknown man and Tim Chou found her on his bed as he claims, it told me there was much more to this than the eyes could tell

"Don't tell me her sister....

"

nI trailed off suggestively but Judy seems to have another view on that

" I don't think so

"

n

"And why would you say so?

"I asked

n

"Her sister Kim was here to ask for a favor from you through your woman so she wouldn't dare to do such a thing knowing it was going to backfire at her in the end

"

nI was drained of energy that I didn't dare to quibble with him on his repeated use of 'my woman'. I understood what he was trying to say, Kim wouldn't dare offend me by hurting Maya especially now she was in dire need of my help the most.

nI knew I had a lot of enemies but I couldn't tell who had the nerve to do something this degrading. Normally if they wanted to get at me, they would kidnap and try to use her to lure me into their trap and not this method.

n

"Whoever planned this would've probably focused and shifted the whole blame on her sister if everything had gone as planned

" Judy explained throwing a casual look at Maya's sleeping figure

nThe temperature in the room suddenly dropped as my countenance darkened at once.

nExactly, if they had succeeded...

n
