“What the hell are you doing here, Ina?!” Ethan’s voice thundered inside his room.
He woke up with a nasty headache not remembering what happened last night. And as soon as he got up he realized, that there was a naked woman sleeping in his bed.
‘What the fuck, Ethan? What the hell happened last night?’ He lifted the sheets and saw he was naked too. ‘Fuck! I drank too much!’ He frowned in confusion, trying to remember what had happened last night.
“Out! Get out of my room!” He stood up and pointed his finger at the door, not minding that he was fully naked. He walked towards his closet and got a new pair of clothes.
“But master I can’t stand up. My legs are still sore. You were so rough last night.,” Ina wept, pretending something happened between them last night.
“I said out!” He yelled while he dragged Ina out of bed. “You’re fired!”.
Something like… “Master, please have mercy on me… I need this job. Besides I don’t have anywhere to go.”
“Do you think I care? Never show your face to me again!”]
“You think you can get rid of me that easily?” She looked at him with disdain on her face.
“I can and I will.” Ethan glared at her as he tried to drag her to the door.
Ina licked her lips seductively. “You know from the moans you were making last night it didn’t seem like you were displeased.” His eyes narrowed and they stopped moving. Ethan knew he was in trouble because he can’t recall anything.
“Besides, I know who you really are, Devil-reaper… and don’t forget this… Your hideout… I can tell all your enemies where you’re hiding.”
“Plus, I know for a fact that you don’t kill innocent people. You only kill the sinners… Am I right, Master?” Ina looked at him with a smirk on her face. She knew she had the upper hand.
“So… You can’t really dispose of me that easily. I’m far too valuable to be thrown away.” Ina laughed like an evil villain.
‘I’m fucked!’ Ethan wanted to scream, instead, he clenched his fists and pretended the situation was not affecting him.
“I already know what you want, so I can be Alexa’s substitute. I can please you better. We already proved that last night.” Ethan frowned.
“Why do you keep mentioning Alexa’s name?” He asked.
“Do you really have no idea? You mistook me for Alexa and showed me everything you wanted to do with her.” Ina smirked.
“Don’t worry, I won’t ask for anything in return.” Ina walked towards him, letting the sheet she was holding slide off her naked body, showing hickeys dotting her skin.
‘F*cking shit! Why don’t I remember having sex last night?’ Ethan cursed in his mind.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered, “I’m better than her. I can satisfy your needs.” She said seductively.
Ethan clenched his teeth, removing her arms from his neck, and held it so tight Ina winced from the pain.
“This… This is the last time you’re touching me. If you try to seduce me again, I will not hesitate to slit your throat with my bare hands.” He pushes her forcefully away from him.
“ Get out of my room!” he roared.
Ina chuckled, “Sooner or later, you’ll need me again. And I’m willing to offer you my body anytime, Master. All you need to do is say the word.” She picked up her clothes from the floor slowly as if doing a striptease just for him. Ethan turned away disgusted.
The knock on the door was the signal for Ina to leave. When the door opened, Ina greeted Austin with A satisfied smile plastered on her face. She bowed her head and exited the scene without looking back at Ethan.
Austin was beyond surprised. “Woah! That’s new. Did you get jealous when you heard me having sex while we were on the phone, you had to get one of your own?” Austin teased him, and Ethan just hissed.
Austin walked inside the room and headed to the balcony. He did not want to do anything inside his bedroom. If they had the same sexual enthusiasm, Ethan probably did it on every surface in his bedroom.
“You have no idea what happened to me. So don’t think that I envied you. Sit.” Ethan pointed to the chair in front of them.
“So, can you at least give me a hint why you brought Ina with you?” Austin asked.
“Don’t ask, alright. Now, give me the information you gathered.” Ethan commanded.
Austin looked at Ethan seriously before giving him the papers. “What will you do if the person you rescued is somehow connected to you?”
“What do you mean?” Ethan asked with a frown, confused about Austin’s cryptic question.
“See for yourself.” Austin handed him the information about Andrew Morgan.
Ethan froze after reading the information. He was gritting his teeth and clenching his fists. His eyes showed how furious he felt and was ready to kill somebody.
“So… I was right, she is the daughter of Andrew Morgan… the same one I know.” Ethan crumpled the paper he was holding.
“Take it easy, Dude. Yes, she is his daughter, but don’t forget she said her father has been mistreating her.” Austin knows Alexa is more in danger now than when she first arrived… Ethan hated Andrew with a vengeance, and he vowed to get even, no matter what. And Alexa was probably going to suffer.
“What if she was sent by her father to lure us… To get information?” Ethan asked.
“What if she wasn’t. I think Alexa is not like her father.” Austin defended.
“Do you like her?”
“Woah! Where did that come from?” Ethan hissed.
“You are the one defending her! Of all people, Austin... You know why I hate that man to death. And now, I can get my revenge through her.” Austin shook his head in disappointment.
“I will still help her regarding Max Willies… Don’t worry about that. But I will need something in return. She will pay me tenfold.” He smirked. “It’s time for me to take my retribution. After I destroy his daughter’s life… I will take his.” His fiery eyes say he is dead serious.
“I just hope that you won’t get in trouble with this, Ethan. Make sure you don’t destroy innocent life. You might regret what you’re planning for Alexa. ” Austin heaved a sigh and left him alone in his room.
Ethan yells and pulls at his hair out of frustration. He throws everything he get’s his hands-on like a mad man. There was an upturned table, a broken vase, torn papers, his cracked phone, and his shattered laptop all scattered on the floor inside his room.
He wore his mask before leaving his room. Ethan still needed to keep his identity. He carried the crumpled folder containing information about Andrew and Alexa Morgan.
He climbed into his car and didn’t waste time as he careened towards the villa. Austin saw him from afar and felt pity towards Alexa. ‘That innocent woman will feel the wrath of the Devil.’ He thought.
“Poor girl,” He murmured in sympathy
Ina hiding in the shadows listened to their conversation earlier, and her mood lit up. She felt happy when she heard Alexa would be the recipient of Ethan’s wrath.
“I will help my Ethan make that bitch’s life miserable.” An evil smirk decorated her face.
AT THE VILLA
Maxime and Alexa were happily talking about the flowers in the garden when suddenly Alexa gets dragged by her wrist. She turned her head and smiled when she saw Ethan.
“Welcome back, Ethan. Maxime said you would be gone for several days” Alexa greeted with a smile. Maxime bowed her head as Ethan signaled her to go.
“Ethan?” Alexa questioned as he held her a little too tightly. The hand on her wrist caused Alexa to wince.
“Ouch, E-Ethan… It hurts.” She looked at him, confused and frightened. ‘What is going on with him? Is he angry at me?’ She thought.
Ethan was glaring at her, his eyes full of hatred. ‘I will make sure that you suffer… I will do this gradually until you’ll ask for your death.’ Ethan thought. Then he released her arm.
“I’m sorry!” He looked at Alexa, while she rubbed her wrist.
“I have made my decision.” He started. Alexa frowned, wondering what it was.
“You asked for my help, right?” Alexa’s face lit up as Ethan moved closer. She found hope in him and had a feeling this might be good. But her hope crumbled when she heard what he said next.
“Pleasure me… And I will help you.”
