Chapter 342 - Dragons ultimate move (1/2)
”Of course, Grandpa at that time tried the best he could to protect and shelter me despite keeping his illness a secret. Also, at the same time, George and the other board of directors conspire to swindle all the rights of the company and Gramps wealth; taking advantage when he's having his episodes. The feeling of uselessness and regret of the unbending reliance I gave them not only led my Gramps to his death but Uno as well.” Seraphina grinds the lit end of the cigarette on the surface of the table with her clenched teeth beneath her lips.
”One year, that man only took a goddamn year to kill everyone around me and made me his toy in the next five years. He would hit me when I talk back. When I attempted to escape, he caged me with no food for days… and when I had enough and chose to ignore him, he would rap--” Suddenly. Seraphina's storytelling was interrupted midway when Dragon threw the round table between them. The table was split in half as it landed on the other side of the room along with the little to no furniture stand.
”Stop.” His tone was filled with dominance as he could no longer hear more of that story. Only a fool would let her continue and refreshed those cursed memories -- whether they happened or not, Dragon wanted her to stop. Alas, Seraphina seemed she didn't hear him and continued in a blank, flat yet firm tone.
”R*ped me, over and over again.”
As she uttered each word, Dragon aggressively took enormous strides to her seat. Just as she spouted her last words, Dragon's palm banged the armrest of her chair. His deep eyes pierced through her sharp yet lifeless ones. However, Seraphina was unfazed as she slowly opened her mouth to continue.
Seeing that she won't listen to him, Dragon was left with no choice but to use his ultimate silencer. Within a fraction of a millisecond, he abruptly dominated her lips with his.
Though it was the second time he caught her lips tonight, his kiss this time had a touch of regret and gentleness. He retracted his head after three seconds and looked at her earnestly.
”I told you to stop.” Dragon murmured through his gritted teeth. He already got the gist of it. No need for her to tell it herself. Dragon never felt this level of rage in his 29 years of existence. He was infuriated that Seraphina had to go through such experience.
Furthermore, that man who did all those things to her was allegedly 'him' in those memories. Even though he knew himself that he won't do such thing despite her wanting to kill him -- he'll fight her fair and square with honor. After all, Dragon and Seraphina were in the middle of the line between love and hate. Hence, if she took the other side with a just reasoning, therefore, what can he do?
Alas, this… not only rage was slowly filling his heart but also an extreme sadness. He wanted to take away those memories from her. If he could, he'd gladly take her stead. However, it was already engraved on her and he could do nothing about it but share that burden.
”Do it again,” Seraphina flatly demanded to indicate that she wanted him to do what he had done again. Her request obviously stunned Dragon before a sly smirk formed on the corner of his lips.
”With p_l_e_a_s_u_r_e…” Without further ado, his lips crashed on hers once again. He knew why Seraphina asked him to do this, yet, he wanted to show his sincerity. Unlike the mischievous kiss earlier, Dragon was more passionate and gentle -- as if wanting to suck all the pain within her.
As usual, Seraphina wasn't responding yet she wasn't retaliating either. She was just simply letting him dominate her lips with her eyes wide open.
