Chapter 24 Saving A Video As Evidence

Perhaps tonight, Eliz was doomed to be with Pierce.

"My dear, it's pointless to be angry." He brushed her arms. "Come on, let me help you calm down," Pierce said slowly. After a few steps, he scooped Eliz up without a word and carried her out of the bar.

When they were out, a gust of cold wind blew, and Eliz felt much more comfortable. She felt a little cold and couldn't help but lean closer to Pierce.

'Why do I enjoy being this close with Pierce now?' Eliz wondered. Eliz was surprised by the unlikely comfort. She must be crazy. When she was about to struggle, Pierce had already put her inside the car. Eliz suddenly came to her senses, but her body heat was increasing. While in the passenger's seat, she tried to release some heat by pulling her clothes away from her body and letting some air touch her skin.

"In heat? I guess your body was telling you that...you need to release those female hormones by making love tonight," Pierce humorously said while settling in the driver's seat. Pierce leaned over to fasten the seat belt for Eliz.

"You wish!" Eliz glared at him. Her eyes were furious with disgust as she struggled to get out of the car.

But Pierce was swift. He had already locked the door and buckled the seat belt. He said, "You're ready, aren't you?"

When they reached the Fantasy Hotel, Eliz had almost exhausted her remaining energy after having drunk too much alcohol. Pierce parked the car in the basement and went into the elevator with Eliz in his arms.

Eliz felt so sedated that she could no longer resist. "This must be crazy." She tried to open her eyes, but the bright light was blinding, so she closed her eyes again and asked in a weak voice, "Hey, where on earth are you taking me?" In her mind, Eliz panicked as she had already guessed the answer. She knew that Pierce was taking her to a private room.

When they reached the 13th floor, they entered Room 1314, the presidential suite. "Relax, I don't need you to marry me. Just stay with me for one night as a reward," Pierce whispered. Pierce pressed his finger on the door's access pad, and it opened automatically.

"So many women would throw themselves at you. Why me?" Eliz felt uneasy and anxious when she saw the door close. She released a shallow sigh as she closed her eyes in worry.

"Really? That's what bothers you?" Pierce asked as he walked towards the bed. The dim light enabled Eliz to open her eyes. She noticed a smirk at the corner of Pierce's mouth.

"No, I don't mind at all. That's a nonsense question," Eliz said to pull the last string of her pride. She didn't mind if he went out with a hundred women every day. It was none of her business.

Eliz's slim and curvy figure looked so light and was effortlessly carried by Pierce's manly physique. Eliz felt her body drooping heavily. When she leaned against the bed and swept her eyes around her, she realized the extent of danger she was in.

"What! You bastard," she yelled. Her head was still heavy, but Eliz tried to get up. Before she could set her feet on the floor, Pierce came over to her and took off his suit. She couldn't move as she was pressed down by Pierce, so she could only stare at him with fierce eyes. Pierce sneered, bent over, and slowly kissed Eliz on her neck. Eliz felt the electricity spread all over her body, and her body became stiff. She tried hard to push Pierce away, but he was like a huge stone pressing her down so hard that she gasped for air.

"Stop struggling. I know that you want me, too," Pierce teased. Looking at the desire on Eliz's face, he knew that she was trying to endure.

"You are not qualified to be the master," Eliz said angrily. She didn't mean it, but she said it to insult and turn him off, hoping he would stop.

"Really?" Pierce said in disbelief. "Then you'd better try and see whether I am qualified to satisfy your desire," he challenged. There was a hint of

irritation in his voice.

'What did she mean by not qualified? To be the most powerful man?' Pierce thought furiously. That was a ridiculous opinion because there were so many women who wanted to have sex with Pierce. If he did not have self-discipline, perhaps he could have fathered several children by now to prove his virility.

"You are the devil, Pierce. I promise you will regret it!" Eliz screamed while thrashing with her fists. Though she wanted to stop him, she felt that the strong desire in her body was slowly invading her sanity as if what Pierce had said was right.

"For what?" Pierce sneered. The cold emotion that reflected in his eyes made Eliz miserable, thinking there was no mercy left in him.

"I will accuse you of raping me! You won't get away with this!" Eliz glared as tears sprung out her eyes.

"Really? Do you mean it? I'll record the video later so that when you go to the court, it can serve as evidence," Pierce mocked with a smirk that creased his face.

"Son of a bitch! You are a rapist!" Tears welled up in Eliz's eyes. She had never before been insulted and humiliated like this.

Seeing Eliz's pitiful look, Pierce almost had mercy on her. However, the rage that was circling in his mind immediately shattered his sympathy. "Eliz, don't pretend to be innocent. Do you think I don't know that you want it now?"

That recent night, Pierce and Eliz had engaged in sex several times. Every touch and kiss had caused Pierce to want her more. He couldn't forget the shared arousal with her in his bed. After that night, he had come to know Eliz so well.

Now, Eliz felt the humiliation surround her, so her face turned green out of rage, and she roared, "Get out of here, Pierce, get out!"

"Okay. I'll get out of here. You can get out with me." Just then, a ripping sound echoed in the air as Eliz's shirt was torn apart. When the shirt was ripped open, Eliz subconsciously covered her chest with her hands. Her porcelain skin seemed so soft that the air could pierce it. Yet, the scars that had been hidden on her chest left Pierce stunned. It was a long scar.

'She was in such pain at that time. But why didn't she die?' Pierce thought to himself with a furrowing brow.

"Get your dirty hands off of me, you scumbag!" Eliz acted restlessly, for she didn't know how her hands could cover her naked body. She sweated when she noticed the lust in Pierce's eyes, making her cheeks immediately heat up.

The corners of Pierce's lips twitched up into an evil smile. "Didn't you ask me to get out of here, Eliz?"

Of course, Eliz knew she could not stop Pierce anymore. Surely, he had been holding in the strong desire to take action. As he thrust his member into her spot, she felt an instant stinging pain in her body. Her eyes grew wide, and then she simultaneously hit Pierce's chest with her fists.

Suddenly, Pierce gawked at Eliz's tears slipping from her eyes. In her tears, he saw the reflection of his irises, glowing like the stars in the night sky, and a warm smile plastered on his face as he leaned forward to claim her lips. Pierce kissed her passionately and wildly as if he was ready to devour her whole. It was a long night filled with passion.

In the early morning, sunshine shone into the room through the gap between the thick curtains.

Pierce had already woken up. He hadn't developed the habit of sleeping late, but the person in his arms hadn't woken up. After the long and wild night, Pierce was very satisfied at seeing Eliz so very exhausted that she had fallen fast asleep in his arms again. A grin showed up on his face now and then. With her eyes closed, she looked delicate and innocent, which attracted Pierce. Pierce had never been like this. He had never stared at a woman for such a long time like this before. He doubted from the bottom of his heart that Eliz was a prig because she could sleep for so long. It had been two and a half hours since he had opened his eyes. It seemed that Eliz was really tired after last night. He heaved out a deep sigh and stared at the ceiling, waiting patiently, when suddenly, the woman in his grip flinched.

Eliz was now fully awake, and she frowned at the scene– when she found that she was lying in Pierce's arms. For a moment, Eliz was stunned until she realized what had just occurred last night. The picture of her crying as Pierce proudly insulted her came to her mind, but she couldn't remember what had happened next. Now, she only felt pain throughout her body, making her scowl even more.
