Chapter 50: Chapter 50

The thumping sound of music reverberated through the air. Twinkling lights followed the rhythm created there. Smoke wafted from the numerous cigarettes released into the surrounding air. The pungent smell of alcohol blended harmoniously, creating a sense of relaxation.

Especially now, right in the middle of the dance floor, where people were bustling about. Moving in sync with the beats, their hearts pounding to the rhythm. Their entire bodies enchanted by the enjoyment they were experiencing. Hips swayed and occasionally slammed as the music grew faster. Sometimes, they screamed when they felt the need for it.

Her long hair followed her body's movements. Occasionally, she closed her eyes to enhance the pleasure she was experiencing. She was like an erotic dancer, shaking her entire body. Her goal was to attract foolish men, just like what she was doing now. However, she didn't need a man to accompany her to bed. She only needed one person: Sam.

On the other side of the dance floor, someone observed the woman closely. A woman who shamelessly danced while holding a bottle of drink. Occasionally, she took a sip and then moved her head along with the music. The observer's hand rested against one side of the room.

"What brings you here, Eland?" asked one of the bartenders in the bar. "Tequila?"

"No."

The bartender furrowed his brow. "Or do you want to meet Jack?"

"No."

The bartender's curiosity grew. Every time Eland came to Flown, he had only two purposes. Either to party until morning and get tired, or to meet with Jack and not leave the room. Whatever they discussed, it definitely concerned the management of this place.

"I'll prepare a place for you," he offered. It wasn't for nothing. Eland and Hugo couldn't be underestimated. They needed a special place in this establishment. Their positions made everyone obey whatever they said.

"On the third floor."

"Okay."

According to Eland, the bartender was being quite chatty tonight. He still wanted to be here, observing every movement of the woman who still dominated the dance floor. Plus, in recent times, her whereabouts had been unknown. It was quite strange for her to suddenly appear at Flown alone.

Anne informed Eland about Bella's appearance at one of the supermarkets on the main road leading to Flown. He immediately checked her location, and indeed, the woman was dancing carefree.

"Hey!" Bella didn't seem to appreciate being touched. Although she felt that everything was moving without being offended or bothered by slight collisions. It had become commonplace and expected. However, if someone suddenly squeezed her buttocks, she clearly wouldn't accept it. "Watch your behavior!"

The man who had been observing Bella since earlier chuckled. "Don't play hard to get." He slightly trapped Bella in his embrace.

Did this make Bella angry? No. But she chose the right time to unleash her anger. Thus, within the trap of his embrace, Bella moved sensually. She raised the bottle in her hand high. The hem of her shirt lifted slightly due to her recent movement. Not to mention her breasts becoming more prominent due to her increasingly wild movements.

The man was clearly ecstatic. He countered by occasionally kissing the nape of the woman's neck. Or even stealing a kiss, despite his efforts being somewhat challenging due to the woman's resistance. "Do you want another drink?"

Bella chuckled. She chose to play with her drink again. She purposely made it messy so that her tongue's movements, licking the remnants on the edge of her lips, would catch the attention of the man in front of her. "I'm fine with this," she said. She moved closer to the man. Her chest pressed against him even more. She continued to sway to the rhythm, matching the man who Bella found repulsive.

However, she did need pleasure for herself. Her head felt heavy because of Jimmy and Gerald's stupidity. They always considered the possible consequences if they acted beyond their usual limits. They also took Alfred and his threats into account.

Yet, Bella was just one step away from achieving her intention of destroying Beatrice. She wouldn't let Sam be in danger. She wouldn't. She only needed Beatrice to receive punishment. She could still keep Sam safe by saying that Gerald and Jimmy were targeting Sam's life. To whom? Clearly, to all the Twin Dragons.

It was so easy, right?

But why hadn't those two idiots fulfilled her wishes yet! Damn it! She drank the remaining liquid in her bottle, swallowing it down, regardless of the burning sensation on her tongue. She truly needed a release. Especially when she felt the temperature rising around her. The touch of the man's hands starting to roam her body. Everything blended into one, but she liked it.

"Move aside." Someone pushed the man who had been holding her.

"What's your problem!" the man retorted, immediately glancing at Eland in front of him. However, it didn't take long for him to step aside. Dealing with Eland could lead to many problems. He had enough trouble at the office. He didn't want to get involved with the thugs in this Southern area.

"What do you want?" Bella laughed. "Chasing him away won't earn my praise as protection." Bella burped slightly. "Damn alcohol!" She felt like smashing her bottle. However, her hand was tightly held by Eland. Bella's anger towards this man was actually quite intense, but in her intoxicated state, she didn't have enough strength.

"Let go, you bastard!"

Instead of letting go, Eland chose to grab the bottle and drag Bella away from the dance floor. Ignoring the sudden attention and curses thrown at Bella. The woman's hand even struck him hard. Making his back ache. But he didn't care. For him, Bella had to give him satisfactory answers. Otherwise, Eland wouldn't hesitate to punish her.

"Let go!" Bella resisted again. "Are you crazy?"

Eland kept walking, regardless of Bella occasionally colliding with other patrons due to his pulling. Eland felt that Bella had been hiding something during her recent disappearance. Once they reached the third floor, where he had prepared for her with Bella, he immediately threw the woman harshly.

Bella staggered a bit due to Eland's forceful movement. After regaining her composure, she took off her shoes. Regardless of whether it would hurt Eland later, the man deserved it. Unfortunately, her action missed the mark. Her shoe hit the glass table, shattering it instantly.

Eland just grinned.

"You bastard!" Bella shouted, outraged by Eland's behavior. She would never forget what Eland had done to her. As she approached the man, she brutally struck him, but with a sudden firmness, Bella stopped her movements. She struggled to move as Eland gripped her jaw tightly. He forcefully pushed her until her back hit the wall. She didn't complain, knowing that Eland would enjoy it.

"What did you say?" Eland whispered, getting closer to Bella, who stared fearlessly at him. "Who's more of a bastard, a woman who degrades herself for a man's sake?"

Bella, despite her mouth being tightly pressed, tried to resist. She spat on Eland's face. "You have no idea how much I love Sam!" she yelled as Eland loosened his grip due to her action.

"I don't care about your love, Bella," Eland said, disgusted. He quickly wiped off what landed on his face. In that moment, Bella took the opportunity to free herself from his grasp. She tried to leave the room, but Eland wouldn't let her go so easily.

In a single motion, Bella found herself in his embrace. Eland pulled her waist slightly and pushed her back. He didn't care if her back got hurt as she fell onto the floor. "Bastard!" the woman cursed.

There was a look of pain in her eyes, and her hands rubbed her back to ease the pain she felt. But Eland didn't care. He needed satisfactory answers from Bella.

"Where were you when you weren't at the headquarters?" Eland asked softly.

Bella tried to stand up despite the pain. Then she responded to Eland's earlier question. With a slight hesitation, she walked towards the door guarded by Eland. "It's none of your business." She waved her hand dismissively.

The dizziness from the earlier drink was starting to take over her. Combined with the pain she had just endured, it felt tempting to just lie down and forget about dealing with Eland for the rest of the night. Unfortunately, she thought Sam would visit Flown. She forgot that Sam was probably with Beatrice.

Beatrice, the whore she needed to destroy immediately.

"Answer!" Eland snapped, once again targeting Bella's jaw. "I'm not like the kind-hearted Hugo who often gives you freedom."

"I don't care," Bella struggled to say. The pain around her jaw intensified, but she didn't want to complain.

"Oh, you're trying to provoke me again, Bella?"

Bella's gaze became even more challenging to Eland as he leaned closer. She turned her face away. She wouldn't allow Eland to touch her, even slightly. Unfortunately, that wasn't what Eland was after.

"I want to see how you beg me, begging for satisfaction. But I won't give it until you answer my earlier question."

"You know what, Eland?" Bella tried to lower Eland's hand that was still gripping her face. "You're no different from a lonely man who needs a wild side like me."

Eland burst into laughter. He didn't expect Bella to say that to him. How absurd! He still had his sanity when it came to judging women. He also enjoyed intimacy that was never satisfied with just one encounter. But not with Bella.

He reached into his pocket and took out a pill he always carried. Sometimes he needed this pill to calm himself down. The noise in his head, especially when the shadows of his past appeared. Although he hadn't taken this pill in a long time, he never left it far from his pocket.

Bella's face, still within his grip, was pressed harder. Especially when Bella resisted by covering her mouth. Shaking her head, she refused when she saw Eland take out the pill, realizing that she couldn't control her body.

"Open your mouth, Bella," Eland chuckled. "You'll experience nirvana with me."

Bella continued to struggle, but she didn't have much strength. She was overpowered by Eland, who kept pressuring her. And when the pill entered, he released her just like that. But she couldn't spit it out because Eland made sure she swallowed it.

"You damn Eland!"

"Is that so?" Eland laughed. "But you're the one who gets satisfied when assisted by this pill, Bella." He chose to sit on the available sofa in the room. Although the glass table was shattered, at least there were no shards on the sofa. "Let's see how strong and capable you are at hiding your wicked plans, Bella."

"You won't get anything from me!" Bella yelled in frustration. Unfortunately, the drug was starting to take effect on her. Bella ran her fingers through her hair. Her vision became unfocused, and a pounding headache overwhelmed her. But... "Ah!" she couldn't resist.

"Why?" Eland took out his pack of cigarettes. Then he grabbed the remote that was among the shattered glass and turned on the music, similar to what the woman had enjoyed earlier.

Bella gasped for breath. Images of her moving sensually, with numerous touches on her right and left, not to mention the gentle kisses and suckling she frequently received, overwhelmed her mind. "Ah!" Bella moaned. Her face turned red, and she fell to her knees unable to control herself.

He unbuttoned her shirt one by one.

"Eland," she called.

Eland glanced briefly, returning to enjoy the object he had hidden between his fingers.

"Ooh!" Bella knew this was madness. But this pill had always helped her when she was with Sam. She didn't want Sam to turn away from her, from her enticing body. The body that could match Sam's game, which was never enough with just one encounter. The body that made her whole body exhausted.

Her breasts were the first target of his touch due to the unbearable desire. "Ah! Damn you, Eland!" she cursed with her eyes closed, trying to alleviate the effect of the drug as soon as possible. But unfortunately, this was just the beginning. Her body was accustomed to receiving more seductive touches than her own hands could provide.

Seeing Bella becoming more helpless, Eland approached. He wasn't a man who showed mercy. He had only one goal: Bella's plan.

He wet his middle finger when he was near Bella. The woman gasped with a gaze filled with desire.

"Eland," she said, pulling him closer. However, Eland immediately grasped her hand.

"You're under my control, Bella!" Eland grinned. He quickly opened Bella's thighs. The woman looked at him with pleading eyes. Without further ado, he inserted his finger into Bella's womanhood. He moved it vigorously, disregarding Bella's moans and the seductive movement of her self-played breasts.

"More, Eland!"

Not just one, but two fingers were already inside Bella. He stirred them with pleasure, putting pressure on certain points until...

"Don't!" Bella screamed in protest.

"Answer my question first, Bella." Eland stood up. "Don't you want this?" He lowered his pants. "I can satisfy you tonight. Until you forget everything, Bella. Just our little game."

Bella swallowed hard.

"So... what's your plan?"
