Chapter 2

Beatrice trembled not because of the cold that greeted her skin, but because of the pain that afflicted her chest. The throbbing sensation made her whole body feel like it was burning. She didn't even dare to glance at the wound that felt sore and incredibly painful.

"Unbelievable!" she muttered in disbelief. Her hands clenched tightly, trying to dispel the rising disgust. All directed at the person who had left her alone in the stuffy room filled with cigarette smoke. The man she had sworn to hate for the rest of her life.

Once again, she winced in pain. Not long after being abandoned, a cold and rigid-looking woman approached her. Instead of asking how Beatrice felt, she received a strong tug that made her feel strands of her hair coming loose.

Damn that woman!

She suppressed all the pain she was currently feeling. She couldn't let out a cry for mercy because Beatrice was sure that everyone in this place had no hearts.

"I can walk on my own!" Beatrice snapped in refusal. She tried to free herself, but the woman's strength was strong enough. Was she a woman disguised as a man? No, her face was heavily made up. The choice of red color on her lips emphasized that this woman didn't want to deal with Beatrice. Did Beatrice want to meet this woman?

No way!

"Don't talk too much! Just come along!"

"Let go!!!" Beatrice grabbed the hand that was still clutching her hair.

The woman glanced briefly and smirked. With a single pull, she made Beatrice stumble and fall, crashing into the wall on her right side.

“I let go already," she said with a sneer.

Beatrice stared at the woman with a sharp gaze, and she remembered the face that now walked arrogantly. Someday, she would repay this woman for her rough treatment. From the dismissive movement of her fingers, she wanted Beatrice to follow her. Beatrice immediately rose, grumbling in dislike, even though she trembled from the pain that afflicted her chest, which was becoming more pronounced.

Meanwhile, the woman, named Bella, walked with an annoyed huff. She never expected that there would be a new woman in the four-story house that served as the headquarters of the Twin Dragons.

The house belonged to the ruler of the Southern District, the owner of the Twin Dragons clan, Samuel Aaric Cyril, or better known as 'Sam.' The leader known for his cruelty, unaffected by any obstacles. Once he set a goal, victory had to be in his hands. The respected leader of the Southern District, both by allies and enemies. He ruled a considerable territory in this part of the South.

All illicit activities were under his dark influence: d***s, gambling, prostitution, nightclubs, corruption involving various parties to facilitate matters, hitmen, paid guards, and many more, all directly led by Sam. He didn't hesitate to get involved whenever there was a problem involving the Southern District.

Bella despised the girl walking behind, even though she didn't know her name. She refused to shake hands with this girl. Moreover, she would show who was in control of this grand house. Especially since Bella was the woman closest to Sam at the moment. This situation had been going on for nearly two years. Bella could feel many benefits from being close to Sam, especially in terms of power.

Who didn't know Bella? The respected woman by Sam? Sam never visited any other room except Bella's. There were several women in this house, but they all obeyed Bella's orders. However, she felt extremely disturbed by the arrival of the girl she had just met.

How could she not?

Two hours before Beatrice's arrival.

One by one, Bella stripped off her clothes. She moved as sensually as possible to capture Sam's attention, who sat at the edge of the bed. The ruler's gaze was fixed on her. That also fueled Bella's enthusiasm to continue teasing Sam. After all, Sam hadn't come home for almost a week. He said he had business in the Eastern District. And the first person Sam visited was Bella.

Who wouldn't feel ecstatic receiving this special treatment from the ruler whose name was known throughout the region?

The kimono she wore as the outer layer of her lingerie grazed the floor with such slow movements. Deliberately. Even though later Sam would play roughly, Bella seduced him with her softness.

Her chest, only partially covered by a thin red fabric, jutted out challengingly. Bella knew that Sam loved touching the exposed parts of her body. The thought of the caresses and gentle massages she would receive from Sam made her lose her senses. But Bella didn't want to throw herself immediately and go straight to the core of their game, filled with moans later.

Patience.

Bella still wanted to dance full of temptations right in front of Sam. Under the dimly lit room, it added an intimate value between the two of them. Bella deliberately caressed her arms as sensually as possible. She made her long legs move with dramatic gestures. Until finally, those steps came to a halt in front of Sam.

"I miss you," Bella said, bowing her head, whispering, and letting Sam's gaze fall on her cleavage. "Do you miss me, darling?"

The man's hand immediately held Bella's waist to prevent her from moving too much. He lifted her slightly to sit on Sam's lap. This made Bella smile wide.

"Can't wait, Honey?"

"What do you think?" Sam used his other hand to squeeze the breasts that had been tempting him to touch. "Move up and down here. Don't stay still," Sam commanded.

Bella immediately complied with his words. However, before her slender fingers attempted to reach for the belt buckle that held Sam's jeans in place, she whispered as softly as possible, "Unbutton first, Honey."

Sam allowed her fingers to undo his pants. His hand had found a new toy; aside from Bella's breasts, which he enjoyed playing with, let's not forget the firm buttocks that had been teasing him to be squeezed. So, that's what he did.

As his efforts yielded results, Bella grinned. "Looks like someone missed me a lot."

"Don't talk too much. Quickly!” Sam immediately grabbed Bella's lips with a passionate kiss. He didn't give the woman any break to catch her breath. He held the back of Bella's neck to deepen the kiss.

While sitting on Sam's lap, Bella began to writhe seductively. It made something that had already hardened become even more erect due to Bella's movements.

The kiss was abruptly released. It was a relief for Bella as she finally had a chance to catch her breath. But it seemed that Sam gave her very little opportunity to breathe freely. When the tip of Sam's tongue swept across Bella's chest, she felt the long-awaited sensation.

Sam's game had just begun.

Dan Bella knows when it will end. Until both of them are completely exhausted, then wake up the next day.

"Darling!" Bella gasped as one of her breasts filled the man's mouth. Her hands couldn't resist just touching Sam's thick curly hair. The masculine aroma of the man had been filling Bella's senses since earlier. Like an ad*****ve d**g that kept burning Bella to match Sam's movements, Bella became more enthusiastic about teasing him.

Even though they hadn't entered each other yet, truly, this was driving Bella half-crazy.

Bella stifled a groan. The nibbles she received turned into strong suction. It was like a hungry baby feeding on its mother's body, and that's what Sam was doing. Sucking with all his might. Although it was slightly painful, it still provided a sensation that made Bella dizzy.

She couldn't wait to be thrust down there soon. Bella was also sure that Sam was waiting for this. So once again, she directed her slender fingers to Sam's intimate part. Firm. Erect. Strong. And definitely making Bella moan loudly. Filling her room with Sam's name when they would unite later.

But...

"Boss!"

The door suddenly opened. Bella immediately hugged Sam and hid her face. Although it seemed unnecessary, considering that everyone also knew exactly what they were doing in this room, Bella still didn't want her face, burning with passion, to be seen.

"Since when do you enter this room without permission?" Sam said in an annoyed tone. "Just disturb someone else!"

"Sorry, Boss." Since witnessing what his boss was doing, the man earlier bowed his head. And he bowed even lower because his boss's angry voice was evident.

"What's wrong?" He didn't care about the disturbance happening. That's why Sam resumed his activities. "Don't stop moving, Bella. You know what you have to do."

Bella hesitated a bit but didn't want to argue with Sam's words. She started moving her hips again. Meanwhile, Sam continued to play with Bella's breasts and twist her erect nipples, which were already enticingly swollen.

"We have brought the girl that the Boss targeted," said Rudi, the bald-headed servant with an earring in his right ear.

Sam's movement abruptly stopped. Without saying a word, he pushed Bella away from his lap. Quickly, Sam buttoned up his pants again.

"Where is she?"

"In the office, Boss."

Without saying goodbye or uttering a word, Sam left, leaving Bella with a thousand questions.

Only then did Bella realize what kind of girl Sam's servants had brought here. Bella wouldn't let this girl become a threat in the future.

No, she wouldn't.

Damn it!

"Get in," Bella commanded harshly.

She pointed to a room on the second floor of this large house. Many stayed on the second floor, including the other mistresses that Sam rarely visited. That's where she placed the girl who disturbed her pleasure. Meanwhile, she stayed on the third floor in a fairly spacious and beautifully arranged room. It was clear that Sam's room was next to hers.

Beatrice stared at the woman with a piercing gaze. She remained silent behind the woman, stealing a glance at the room she would occupy, unsure how long. The air in the room was stuffy, and the lighting was minimal.

"I said get in!" Bella yanked Beatrice forcefully. "Don't cause any trouble, or you'll know the consequences!"

Beatrice didn't say a word. Only her eyes continued to stare sharply at Bella. This only fueled Bella's anger, causing her to slap Beatrice's face with considerable force. Bella hoped to see fear in Beatrice's eyes because of her actions. Unfortunately, it didn't happen.

Beatrice became even more defiant, though she held her face, which felt hot from Bella's slap.

"You!" Bella pointed at her angrily. "If you dare to misbehave here, I won't hesitate to make you suffer!"

Beatrice received a strong push and stumbled. The push hit her chest, causing a painful sensation. Then, the door slammed shut with a loud bang. To her, the door was like the path to her freedom, which now had no light.

Just like herself, now clinging to her knees, crying and contemplating the terrible fate that awaited her. She didn't know how long she would be here. Beatrice felt like choosing death instead.

"All of this because of Father!" she hissed through the tears that had taken over.

"Damn it!"
