The Alien King's Alluring Obsession
Chapter 44

Edna

Madam Tayo moved closer to my leg. She unhooked the latch on the anklet before wrapping it around my ankle.

I tried to move my feet but it was unsuccessful. The only thing that moved was my toes. Moving my toes wouldn't achieve anything.

Madam Tayo smiled, "You see, you would not be able to remove this anklet without me and the mechanism it has isn't something you can unlock yourself. Just try to behave. I might remove the anklet if you put quality years into your service. Keep fighting, I believe in you."

Strength was returning to my body but it was just normal human strength. My superpower was still under a seal. I was as weak as the moment I landed on this planet.

I wasn't so delusional to think I could get out of this place with my normal human strength. Still, I wasn't about to make things easier for Madam Tayo. If she saw how problematic I was, there was a chance that she might let me go.

It was highly unlikely, but a girl can hope. I was willing to believe in that tiny thread of hope than wallow in despair.

Madam Tayo gave the brocade box to Qui and took the book she gave to him previously.

The book looked new and it smelled of ink.

Madam Tayo threw the book to me.

The book landed on my torso.

Finally, I got the strength to stand up. The book on my body fell to the floor. I picked the book up and held it tightly.

"It seems you are easing into your new position well. Make sure to read all the rules and words in the book. It will help you in the long run." Madam Tayo said, "Now, it's time to take you to your colleagues. It would be good to foster great intrapersonal network."

I laughed in scorn, "When I told you I was going to be your headache, do you think I was joking?"

I needed to use actions to back my words up.

Before her eyes, I tore the book of rules in pieces.

The sound of ripping paper reverberated throughout the room.

The pieces of the book fluttered to the floor as I loosened my fingers.

Madame Tayo's eyes were wide open and her lips were twitching violently.

Her yellow eyes flashed repeatedly.

Her anger was very obvious but I didn't care.

"Let me go and you will have peace of mind. Don't play with fire." I warned her again.

"It seems like I have been too lenient with you." Madam Tayo's voice trembled, "What's your name?"

"Edna." I replied.

I folded my arms and waited.

Madam Tayo was a brothel owner. She would focus on the things that will give her profit. I just hoped with all my heart that the thing I did a few minutes ago will convince her that I am bad news.

"Edna," Her trembling voice stabilized slowly, "I am going to show you why I am the madam of Flower Embrace. You thought I haven't gotten girls and boys that are firecrackers? I thought you had common sense. I guess I was wrong. Since you want the hard way, I will be happy to oblige."

"Let me go." I repeated for the umpteenth time.

She ignored me, "Qui, bring her to the dark shed. Give her a dressing down. Make sure her face is untouched and leave no scars on her body. Give her maximum pain. It should help her think properly." Qui didn't waste any time.

He stalked towards me.

His large hands grabbed me in a merciless hold.

I struggled like an earthworm that had been splashed with salt.

"Let me go." I said as I intensified my struggles.

My movements didn't faze Qui.

He threw me over his shoulder like a sack of wheat.

My hands hit his back as I continued to twist around in every direction.

Smack!

The burning area on my butt made me pause.

What just happened?

Qui had just slapped me and it was on my butt.

Qui used that window of opportunity to get out of the room.

The feeling of violation and humiliation from his smack was too strong. I gritted my teeth and continued hiting Qui with all my might.

Because I was upside down, my blood rushed into my brain in a skewed manner.

My movement stopped slowly and I couldn't pinpoint where Qui was taking me to.

The background around us blended into a mushy and colorful mess.

Finally, he stopped and dropped me.

The moment my feet touched the floor, I crumbled into an unpresentable pile on the floor.

I took a few minutes to get myself back in order before observing where Qui brought me to.

The place I was in looked exactly like a shed. It was similar to the sheds that was used to keep farming tools on ancient Earth. It was made of wood and it looked like it was about to collapse any second. Even in broad daylight, I could hear rats scurrying around like it was nobody's business.

Qui tapped something on his wristwatch.

Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on 000005s.org for uninterrupted enjoyment. The next chapter is just a click away, exclusively available on our site. Happy reading! After he was done, he waited.

His piercing eyes were on me though. I would not succeed in an escape or a sneak attack.

Right now, the best plan is to lay low and look for a better opportunity. Fighting Madam Tayo and her goons would not be of any use. For now, I have to lurk patiently.

A few minutes passed by.

I looked at the bright sky as I lost myself in my thoughts.

Killian must have been looking everywhere for me by now. I wasn't the one doing the searching but something pricked my heart.

My heart constricted and my eyes watered.

When I thought of how emotionally worked up Killian would be, my mood worsened.

A day that should have been a joyous one has changed into something else.

Fate played a bad hand.

Footsteps approached us.

Soon enough, the owners of the footsteps was revealed. It was two men.

The new arrivals were as buff as Qui and their emotionless faces were the same too.

"Gashi, Orion. Madam Tayo said we should teach her a lesson without leaving any scars on her face and body. It should be the kind of experience that would teach her valuable lessons." Qui informed the other two. They nodded.

They didn't smile or show any unnecessary emotions. It was strange.

It felt like giving me a beating was a normal occurrence. To them, it wasn't new or surprising.

Oh boy.
