The stinging pain pulled Aiden out of his stupor. He widened his eyes and stared at the vampire in front of him. The woman pulled her lips into a sneer and looked down at Aiden.
"What? Unhappy? What can you do about it? You are just a worthless human being after all."
"..."
"Don't think that you are so great because you managed to seduce Ryan into your bed a few times," the woman snarled at him.
"I did not," Aiden said weakly.
"Huh? Did you say something? Speak up, damn it. Why are you young human beings so soft-spoken?"
Another crisp slap resounded in the room, and Aiden's other cheek was also disfigured by a row of bleeding cuts.
"I did not seduce him into my bed," Aiden repeated with a louder voice.
The woman stared at him, her icy glares threatening to cut Aiden into pieces. But then she burst into laughter.
"HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA!"
"If you didn't seduce him, how could he even bother with you? Do you think you are the world's number one beauty, hmm?"
