CEO's Revengeful Queen

“Do you think you can really escape?”

The male voice that had spoken from the dusky room seemed to have come from the depths of hell itself. Annetta White, already numb from the pain, shivered with fear uncontrollably.

The man fixed his crimson eyes on her.

The next second, as if he wanted to punish her, his cold lips bit down hard on her neck.

Annetta shrieked with pain and closed her eyes as her white knuckles gripped the thin blanket beneath her.

She felt like the blood vessels on her neck had been torn apart by that bite. The demon was currently sucking her blood.

Annetta’s face turned pale.

Her eyes widened as familiar memories resurfaced.

Had she been reborn? To the night when her 18-year-old self had been tortured by the demon?

She still remembered her last life. After being drugged by her stepsister, she had staggered out of the house in a daze.

A familiar sports car had rushed straight at her. The fall from that hard car crash had broken both her legs.

She laid on the ground and watched her boyfriend, Caleb Taylor, get out of the car.

He walked to her and laughed savagely when he saw her pleading eyes, “Oh no, how careless of me to break your legs. But who knows? Perhaps Young Master Ethan will thank me. Without your legs, you won’t be able to run, will you?”

Then her father, stepmother and stepsister had caught up to her. Her stepsister, who had pretended to be innocent and kind, struck her across the face, “You slut! I dare you to try running away again!”

After that, she had been sent straight back to the demon’s side again.

Annetta shed tears of pain. She only realized the reason for her five-year imprisonment after her tragic death. This man had continuously been providing money for her family, enabling her father to open a company. As a result of this, her stepmother and stepsister lived luxurious lives. That was the reason they allowed this so-called ‘angel from heaven’ to be her living nightmare.

No wonder it was easy to recapture her every time she escaped.

It was her loved ones who betrayed her!

“Don’t cry.” There was a sickly-sweet smell of blood on his lips as he licked the tears at the corner of her eyes.

Those comforting words coming from his mouth made Annetta feel nothing but endless fear and she felt herself blacking out.

She looked at her legs, which had indeed been fixed but had been chained together by a cold iron chain.

Just like in her previous life, the last time she tried to escape, Ethan Harris had recaptured her, fixed her broken legs and chained her up. However, this provoked the demon-like man. If she tried another escape, he would end up breaking and fixing her again and again, until she no longer tried to escape.

“Haha!” She had really been reborn!

Annetta only saw red.

The greedy, distorted faces of her family the night of her death had broken her spirit more than her broken leg. To squeeze the last bit of value from her, they had her kidnapped and sold to the Harris family’s adversary to do as they pleased to her!

Unable to bear the humiliation, she had jumped off a cliff in grief.

She heard the desperate roar of a man the moment her feet left the ground.

The one who came to save her, in the end, was the man she least expected—the demon she had hated all her life. The love and affection she thought she had from her loved ones ended only in hypocrisy and betrayal.

She swore that in this life, she would make them all pay!

Annetta burned with anger as she thought of these things. Just then, the man’s arm encircled her waist and held her tightly, like a snake before eating its prey. She was so shocked that her heart suddenly hardened.

“Get away from me!” She instinctively resisted, and instantly regretted it.

Terror filled the air.

The man was like an enraged lion, and she felt like her slender waist was in danger of being snapped by him. His tall body loomed over her.

“No!” Despair that chilled the bones overwhelmed Annetta, making her whole body shiver.

She felt a sense of deja vu like she was reliving the night of her tragic death.

Annetta suddenly realized something. Although the man had a morbid possessiveness and liking towards her, he was the only one who stayed by her side when everyone else betrayed and used her. She did not understand why he did this.

However, just this one good point alone was a thousand times better than her loved ones who had betrayed her and exchanged her life for money.

In that instant, Annetta was enlightened. Even though she was still afraid of the man, she was no longer the empty-headed Annetta from the previous life. In this life, she was going to change!

Annetta took a deep breath, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. Trying her best to restrain her fear of the man, she put on her most pitiful expression and forced herself to look into those violent-filled eyes that made her soul tremble.

“It hurts…”

The furious man looked at the woman beneath him, those tear-filled eyes looking at him as she begged in a sweet and soft voice, “Ethan, I’m in so much pain… Could you please be gentler?”

For a split second, it was as if someone had hit a pause button on an enraged lion. Ethan fixed his dark eyes on her as a hint of doubt and curiosity flashed across his handsome face.

In the past, she would have resisted with everything she had. She would have cried, yelled, scolded, called him a beast or a demon, told him to scram or cursed him to die horrible deaths.

Now, she was as obedient as a rabbit?

The man’s face was frosty as his thin lips parted, and his voice was low and hoarse with a hint of danger as he asked, “What did you call me?”

“Eth…Ethan…”

Annetta swallowed and said it once more.

She had always resisted his dominance in her past life. The more she resisted, the crueller he would have become and would have tortured her until there was nothing left in her. She was clearly no match for him. In this life, she could not make the same mistakes.

After she had spoken, she observed his reaction carefully. He didn’t seem to hate it.

Annetta lowered her voice and said it again, “Ethan…”

She did not expect him to suddenly strangle her. Annetta’s heart tightened with fear and her pupils suddenly contracted.

Ethan’s glare was bone-chilling, and the warning said in his deep and low voice was like a poisonous snake twisting tightly around her.

“Annetta White, don’t even think about playing any tricks on me. From now on, if you run away again, I will break your legs. I don’t mind killing you if you run away a second time! You need to stay by my side all your life. Even in death, your corpse will remain by my side!”

What a pervert!

Annetta’s horrified pupils reflected the man’s ruthless face as despair suffocated her. She felt herself getting weaker, slowly losing consciousness.

Just when she thought she was going to die, the force on her neck lifted abruptly.

She opened her mouth wide and gasped for air as her chest heaved.

The man stared at her undulating chest, and his Adam’s apple rolled up and down. He ordered in a hoarse voice, “Continue to call me that.”

Annetta was stunned for half a second. She could feel the heat radiating off the man, and she reacted immediately, “Ethan!”

The man’s face was as cold as ever as his narrowed eyes stared at the woman below him. His dark eyes gradually filled with deep infatuation, as if he wanted to swallow her in one bite.

But the woman did not perceive the danger. She lifted her head and straightly kissed him.
