chapter 21(Hotz Hotel)

The popular Hotz hotel was situated among the tall buildings of the city. It was one of the most luxurious hotels in the city and a lot of wealthy guests frequently visited it on a daily basis for various purposes.

Bruce Banner was also a regular guest of this hotel, infact one could refer to this place as his hang out spot because he visited this hotel several times a day.

Business meetings, clubbing, partying and resting, this place was always his first and only choice. As a result he was considered and treated as a VIP guest every time he visited because he was a regular customer and due to his prestigious identity.

Thus, the very moment he arrived at the hotel along with his bodyguards and Natasha, the hotel staff immediately rushed to welcome them.

Their entourage was directed to the elegant classic suite that Bruce frequently spent his time whenever he came to the hotel. However, he instructed the hotel staff member that escorted them to take Natasha to another room to wash her up and dress in fancy clothes compared to the one she was wearing.

This wasn't the first time Bruce had this kind of thing at their hotel. Therefore, most of the staff were already familiar with this situation and they understood what needed to be done in order to satisfy Bruce's taste.

Bruce was a wealthy second-generation heir to the Banner family that runs many casinos in the city. He was popular among the elite society for his frivolous character splurging his family wealth especially on women in order to satisfy his lust.

"Please, follow me miss." The staff said to Nastasha in a respectful tone.

Natasha was unable to argue even though she didn't like where this situation was heading. But she was afraid to act stubborn because the bodyguards following Bruce didn't look simple.

At this point Natasha knew that she had to thread carefully because she was now in a dangerous predicament. Her main objective was to make it out of this place alive.

Moreover, she was also worried about how Kyle was doing. Although she knew Kyle was strong, as a mother, she couldn't help but be concerned about him.

Her question was if Kyle would be able to defeat everyone with only his own strength despite knowing he wouldn't rest until he found her.

"I just hope he reported to the cops instead." Natasha mumbled as she followed the staff to the other room that she was being taken to.

After walking along the hallway for a couple of seconds, they arrived at the room. The room was also exquisite but Natasha wasn't too surprised, after all, she had once served in a mansion. The rooms of her masters were much more beautiful decorated than this.

"Ma'am, please take off your clothes and step into the jacuzzi in the bathroom, so that I can get rid of it." The staff instructed Natasha who was still in a worrisome state.

"Sorry, but if you do that which clothes would I wear after taking my bath?" Natasha asked the staff as she was worried that were planning to leave her in just pajamas or maybe naked.

"You don't have to worry, before the maids are done with helping you take your bath, there will be another dress prepared for you." The staff responded with a professional smile on her face in order to ease Natasha's worry.

"Excuse me, what do you mean by maids helping me...."

However, Natasha was unable to complete her question when two ladies in a maid outfit entered the room.

"Good evening Ma'am, we are here to help you?" The two ladies announced their presence in unison.

"I don't think I will be needing any help to take my bath." Nastasha quickly rejected the offer, her face reddened in embarrassment as it was her first time that someone had offered to bathe her.

"I'm sorry Miss, but we can't allow you to do that. Mr. Bruce gave us a specific order to take special care of you. Besides, he always likes his female escort to be thoroughly clean and if there is any dissatisfaction we would be the ones to take the blame." The staff explained and insisted that Natasha allows them to perform their duties.

Natasha was unable to argue anymore so she conceded to allow herself to be bathed by the maids. After she was done taking her bath there was already a dress waiting for her on the bed which the maid assisted her in wearing.

As soon as she was done dressing up, another attendant walked into the room.

"Ma'am, I'll be escorting you to meet Mr. Bruce."

****

When Natasha arrived at the entrance of the room, she was searched thoroughly by the bodyguards outside before she was allowed to walk into the room.

Inside the room seven men wearing black suits were sitting on the couch. Each one of them had a cigar in their hand which they smoked while they were being massaged by the courtesan that were alsoseated right next to each one of them.

Natasha had to cover her nose with the back of her palm to prevent her from inhaling the terrible air pushed to the centre of the room by one of the guards standing behind her.

"Tasha you're finally here. I was starting to think that the attendants sent to you were doing an inefficient job by making you late. However, I can see now that the wait was worth it." Bruce commented the moment he sighted Natasha.

Everyone in the room also had their eyes on her as they were mesmerized by her beauty.

"You really went all out this time Bruce. Where did you find a beauty like this?" One of Bruce's friends commented as he stared at Natasha with lust.

Bruce laughed, he was incredibly proud of himself that he made his friends feel jealous. "That means I won today's bet." He said as he stretched his hands towards Natasha. "Come closer, I want to introduce you to my friends."

The scene before disgusted Natasha, but her lustful stares made her more uncomfortable. She shyly tried to drag her dress downwards to cover her legs but the dress was too skimpy.

"Don't be shy Miss, we won't bite. We just want to get to know you better, so don't avoid us?"

They continued to tease Nastasha but she remained adamant to move from the spot she stood.

When Bruce noticed Natasha was playing too hard to get and being stubborn, he signaled one of the guards in the room to push her toward him.

Natasha wasn't expecting to be suddenly pushed from behind, as she staggered forward Bruce instantly caught her in his arms.

Natasha struggled desperately to get his hands off of her, which were firmly gripped around her waist, but her efforts were futile. "Let me go...." she demanded angrily.

"Why my dear? Isn't this position intimate enough, or perhaps you would prefer sitting on my lap?" Bruce teased and forcefully kissed Natasha on the lips.

Paaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Natasha slapped Bruce so hard on his face that the sound resonated throughout the room and she pushed him away to free herself from his entanglement. She wanted to run out of the apartment, but she couldn't even get to the door. Instead, she was trapped in a barrier that lifted her back to Bruce.

"Where do you think you're going bitch? Just because I appreciate you a little bit, you believe you're entitled to disrespect me" Bruce said, still trapping Natasha in his barrier.

This was Bruce's ability and why he was feared in the criminal world and among other metahumans. His barrier couldn't be penetrated by bullets and it was also strong enough to withstand at most two missiles without reinforcing its durability. It could also be used to trap his victims, like Natasha, who were now vulnerable

A sinister smile appeared on Bruce's face as he watched Natasha slowly suffocating inside the barrier because of the lack of air. He squeezed the width of the barrier to crush Natasha, but left enough space for Natasha to kneel as she was still trapped inside the barrier.

However, his fun was ruined by the loud banging of the door that was broken into pieces when two of his bodyguards that were standing outside crashed into it with massive force as they were thrown into the room.

Everyone in the room instantly became alert thinking it was some rival gang that ambushed them. However, to their surprise they only saw a teenager in bloodstained cloth walking into the room with a menacing look on his face and terrifying bloodlust.
