Chapter 4 Intimidating Her

I got alert as soon as he leaned close and started moving down to my neck. No doubt, his alluring and soft touch was also pulling me closer to him, but I had to stay in my senses. I don't want to lose my guard. I acted strong and called him.

"Sir, leave me," I said in a voice loud enough to grab people's attention around us.

"Shut up! Don't create a scene here." He growled, jerking me in a scolding voice while running his eyes into the surroundings. But I didn't give ear to his scolding and pushed him back, pretending as if my foot had been sprained.

"Ouch...." Papa listened to my voice and ran to me.

"What happened, daughter?"

"Papa, my foot." Very hard, I took out words from my lips, acting as if I were in a lot of pain.

"You are going to be alright, daughter. I'm going to bring a doctor now." Papa left while Edwin ran for me. He picked me up in his arms and took me to a medical room.

From the corner of my eye, I could see Damien eyeing me with all his furious gaze. His level of rage was evident from his red eyes. It seems the scene of Edwin picking me up in his arms didn't settle well in front of his eyes.

He took me to the room and made me lie on the bed.

"Are you fine?" he asked in a voice full of concern.

"Yeah," I said briefly, nodding my head. The doctor examined my foot. He told them that my sprain was not that severe. After bandaging my foot and prescribing some medicine, we left. Edwin was also with us while on our way back home.

Damien Pov

It was nighttime. I was sitting in my room with a glass of wine. My eyes were blood-red. The scene of Erika in the arms of Edwin was flashing again and again in front of my eyes.

In the venue, I acted patiently and didn't lose my cool, but right after coming home, I lost my guard and started throwing and breaking things. In a matter of seconds, the condition of the whole room turned messy and disheveled. Shreds of broken glass were scattered on the floor, bed sheets were thrown down, and all things on the dressing table were either broken or dismantled on the floor.

"She dared to defy me. How dare she?" I roared in an ear-piercing voice that resonated between the walls of my room.

Nothing happened to her. It was all just a pretense of hers. My eyes were fixed on something unknown on the wall in front of me.

Miss Erika, now you will see how I'm gonna take you and bring you here to my place. If not one way, then let's do it the other way. I gulped down the little bit of alcohol remaining in the glass and threw the glass away on the floor. Thinking something deep, a mischievous smile crept on my face as I traced my finger over my chin.

************

The moment I came back home, I couldn't stop thinking about Damien's strange attitude towards me. I can still feel his touch on my skin, his proximity, and his deep, husky voice, echoing close to my ear that made me shudder to my core.

His presence at the party had quite an impact on me. His personality was very intimidating, and his aura was speaking out loud about his dominance. I was still feeling myself under his deep, penetrating gaze.

I tried to jerk his thoughts.

I should stay away from him. He doesn't have any manners. Thinking to myself, I lay on the bed and very soon drifted to a sound sleep.

The next day, I woke up early in the morning. After getting fresh and having breakfast, I started getting ready. I wore a black dress and went out of the house to go and meet my friend, Lilly.

I was walking on the footpath, lost in my thoughts, unaware of my surroundings, when suddenly a car stopped near me. Before I could understand the matter, I was abruptly pulled inside.

As I was taken inside the car, I saw it was no one else, but Damien. He pulled me up from the seat and made me sit in his lap.

He wrapped his arm tightly around my waist, making me pull closer to him. I couldn't comprehend what had just happened to me in the blink of an eye; my senses started working as I found myself sitting in the lap of Damien.

"Leave me...I said, leave me." I yelled at him, wriggling in his arms.

"Aw, beauty, keep quiet, otherwise you don't know who I am and what I can do with you." He said with a grin, caressing my cheek. I didn't lose my courage and harshly jerked his hand from my face and started a rain of slaps on his chest.

"Driver, move." He ordered the driver, and the car was pulled out. I tried and squirmed hard to release myself from his tight grasp, but to no avail. From his face, it seemed obvious he was enjoying watching my resistance and attempts to free myself from his dead-strong grip.

To lose his hold on me, this time, I harshly pulled him by his hair. But he got angry as he lost his cool and landed a tight slap on my cheek. His slap was so harsh that for a moment, I felt my ears stop working as the impact of the slap made me feel I had lost my listening ability. Because of his such a harsh slap, I lost the little bit of remaining courage I had and sat silently, surrendering myself to him.

In fear, I hide my face between my hands. Feeling my helpless state, I started crying. I wasn't getting anything on how to free myself from his strong grasp, and I don't know where he is taking me and what he is going to do with me.
