Meanwhile, somewhere else in the city of Nordeny, near its hub was a lavish mansion. In that mansion was Shane. The man was shirtless, holding a black whip in his one hand and a bottle of red wine in the other. He bared his throat as he drank straight from the bottle. The limp looking whip swayed in his hand. There was a young woman tied to his bed. Shane eyed her with interest.

She looked young and barely legal. The pink shimmering robe she was wearing was nearly translucent and barely hid anything. She wore nothing but a bikini beneath the robe.

The young girl woman stared at Shane as he approached her slowly with a whip in his hand. Her eyes shone with sheer

terror

Beneath that terror was restraint.

Shane Brown was part of the Nordenic Quartet. The Browns were rich. She would be swimming in money if he ended up marrying her.

She knew how perverse the man was. She knew all about his perverted fetishes in bed. But she was willing to bear them silently

For money and for a better life.

The young woman was willing to be the man’s plaything.

Shane had no plans to marry the woman. Women were playthings to him. They were toys. He wasn’t interested in keeping mistresses or getting married. He might pay to have a good time every now and then but he wasn’t interested in having a kept woman. There were plenty of beautiful, nubile young women out there. The young man wasn’t going to play with one toy when he could play with so many.

The young girl had made a terrible mistake.

Shane took another long gulp from the bottle of wine as he walked up to the young woman. Then, he gazed down upon her.

Her beautiful semi–naked form lay before him.

The young woman murmured his name softly. Her soft cries for him were like a song to his ears.

What a

beauty.

No man would be able to resist her.

Yet Shane found himself strangely thinking about Anya. Frustration stirred Inside him as he realized he would rather have Anya instead.

Anya was more beautiful than any of the women whom he had had in the past. Unfortunately, Evan had gotten to her before Shane could.

Shane found that utterly unacceptable. He was the one who was first interested in Anya. He didn’t care if Anya was now

Evan’s lover.

He was going to crush Evan.

Anya was nothing without Evan.

When he crushed Evan, he would have the young woman on her knees begging him for mercy.

The thought of that made Shane’s blood burn with excitement. He lifted the bottle of wine and started pouring its contents on the woman at his feet.

Red wine gushed like blood before landing on the young woman’s skin like crimson splatters.

The man watched as the wine soaked the young woman’s robe. His eyes turned as red as the wine on her.

His lips spilt into a sharp grin.

The man seemed to be shaking with excitement.

He raised his other hand and started whipping the young woman.

Within moments, cries of pain filled the lavish mansion.

Elsewhere in Nordeny:

Evan’s black Bentley sped down the streets of the city. Evan had released Anya from his kiss after suffering a bite on his lip.

A red mark appeared on his lip..

Blood swelled to the surface.

The young woman hadn’t held back at all.

She stared at the wound on Evan’s lips with some measure of trepidation. But she didn’t regret doing that. He was the one who had forced the kiss on her.

Had he sought her

Onsent?

How could he kiss her without asking her permission in the first place?

Anya wasn’t going to put up with the man anymore. The look on her face was dark with fury. “Mr. Welton, please respect my rights. I’m not your lover. You don’t have the right to kiss me without my consent.”

Done with her stern remark, she waited for

Evan to yell at her.

A long moment passed. The man didn’t say a word. Instead, he simply wiped the blood off his thin lips. After that, he spoke. “Is that so? Are you telling me that all I have to do before I try and kiss you the next time is ask if you’re okay

it?”

Anya froze. She felt as if she was stepping into Evan’s trap.

That wasn’t what she had meant at all. What she had been trying to tell him was that she didn’t want him to kiss her at all.

The young woman bit her lips softly. “No. I’m trying to tell you not to kiss me. You shouldn’t be kissing me just because you felt like it at that moment.”

“You think I did it on the spur of the moment?” Evan swiped his fingers across his lips lightly, wiping fresh blood that had swelled to the surface away. The tone of his voice was mild when he spoke next. “I don’t go around kissing women. I only kiss women I’m interested in.”

The man’s argument sounded preposterous and illegal.

Anya found herself at a loss for words.

She didn’t know how to talk to the man. Perhaps she was simply not his match.

She decided to give up on talking altogether.

She simply had to focus on getting Mdm Welton’s coat done.

Once that was done, she would quit.

Evan might be the CEO of Welton Group, but who cares? He couldn’t stop her from leaving. She never wanted to see him

again.
