Our little breathless moment was interrupted when someone grabbed my arm and yanked me off the chair. With a slight yelp, I landed on the hard floor with my hip. The impact left a lingering pain, but I had already built a pain tolerance, both physical and psychological.
"I'll do us a favor-" Lori started dragging my body along the floor with a lot of effort while her anger was audible in her voice, "-and lock you up somewhere you won't dare-"
"Let her go!" Gale's order boomed in the room.
I looked back, smiling to myself that everything was going just as I had anticipated. He was not protecting me. He was protecting himself for he knew that Lori might torture the answer out of me about the person who fucked me. And I, I would willingly give up Gale's name without any mercy."What?" Lori squeaked taken aback as her grip came loose.
I shook off her hand completely and pulled myself to my bare feet, supporting myself on Gale's chair, brushing a finger on the back of his neck.
He snapped his glare at me intimidatingly but I just grinned stupidly at him and then...winked.Lori rushed to stand on the other side of his chair, her expression tainted by anger, confusion, hate, envy, and evilness. She opened her mouth to possibly demand answers but was given no chance when Gale pushed his platter away from him angrily.
With his furious scowl at her, Gale got up.
"Damn all of you acting like this is a circus. I'll have you all disciplined so you'll remember your places.""WHAT?!" The two chorused with Mia hurrying from her chair to stand by her mom's side. She took her arm, fear evident in their eyes.
I smirked in Gale's shadow, fully aware that my punishment would be very different from theirs. They tried pleading for their asses but Gale was having none of it as he phoned his men.
Barely two minutes later, two men and one woman rushed into the dining room and took Lori and Mia away who were still screaming and cursing us both.The door thudded shut, closing out the noise in the hallways to let the ringing silence reign supreme.
I sighed in my mind, relieved that my work was done. I had successfully caused Lori trouble, even better than I had expected. I had to offer my gratitude to Gale later for his impeccable acting."And you!" My arm was grasped and yanked in a certain direction. The sudden haul had me stumble, but when I was pushed down on the table, I realized that Gale had planned it. "Don't think you'll go unpunished you damn vixen," he hissed as one of his hands pinned my chest down while the other yanked my dress over my ass, laying bare my buttcheeks.
I didn't fight him, was useless anyway, just broke into a hearty laughter. I had just begun my revenge on Lori and it felt so darn good, like swimming in a pool of ecstasy.
As Gale rained down hot spanks, tears made from pain and cheer escaped my eyes. But I didn't let a groan reach his ears, no. I was not going to give him the satisfaction of knowing he could break me. I just screamed inwardly and bit my lower lip until the rusty taste of blood took over my tongue.
After maybe seven or eight scorching spanks, Gale ceased inflicting pain and ended the torture, leaving my ass to be devoured by inferno flames.
And just like that, he stormed out of the room, leaving only a reminder, "My room in twenty minutes!" It was more of an order than a request. Yet it didn't surprise me, I was already used to that kind of tone from him.
Seconds ticked away in my mind as the whole thing replayed in there.
I had been punished for causing chaos, but they had been punished for what? Just thinking about the two howling in pain wherever they had been taken made me grow insane with glee. I cackled maniacally as I lifted my chest from the table and flattened my feet on the floor.A sharp pain shuddered my sole, making me throw my sore ass on the nearest seat.
"Ack!" I moaned as my buttcheeks erupted in fiercer flames.
I quickly bit my lip, my head dropping forward as muffled groans vibrated in my chest.There was blood on the soles of my left foot and little shards embedded on my flesh uglily. "Fuuuuck!"
Oh it hurt so bad.
How had I not felt it before?As I pondered my next action, the door swung open, attracting my teary eyes.
Angel rushed in holding a kit. Her gaze left mine to my bleeding foot.
"I've been asked to tend to you," she informed kneeling before me.I frowned, a bit lost.
"By who?"Angel didn't answer, she just started working on my foot. "It might hurt a little as I take them out. Bear with it."
I nodded, bracing myself for another wave of tear-jerking pain.

GALE'S POV
****************************I sent an angry fist straight at the bathroom mirror, shattering it to a hundred reflections.
The skin of my knuckles was cut open, the evidence remaining as the bloody imprints left on the square frame.I didn't know what to do with all this anger boiling and bubbling within my chest.
It felt like molten lava had been poured in there and made me lose my composure.Gawd! I wanted to kick them all out so badly and lock the doors forever.
But damn, I had a secret investigation to carry out in Lori's family. I had allowed them to stay with me only because the imperial family had grown wary about their House and suspected them of having ties with the remnants of WSG(World Shadow Government).Even after so long, WSG was still opposing the Raynatts, causing little messes here and there like the recent bombing. I still hadn't found the mastermind or why they had done it. Those bastards had been used and dumped by whoever had planned the attack. All this had pushed me on the edge, adding the insignificant Maya and her college crush.
Insignificant?! I huffed moving away from the broken mirror to walk back into my room.
A million thoughts stormed my mind, trying to find a solution for the current problems I was facing.As if WSG wasn't adding too much pressure on me, I had received a decree three months prior to take in a wife who'd help me in my duties. That was the Empress's request which came from a place of genuine care. She wanted me to find someone to share my joys and sorrows with as she had with the Emperor during their younger years.
Empress Anna(Annie from her prior years) was the epitome of strength and hope.She had held the fort down when her husband had been abducted by WSG, a piece of history that was well-known all over the world. She fought the enemy with everything she had until the return of her partner who was now the emperor.
To find such a loyal and dedicated woman would be next to impossible for the noble women who were currently available just wanted to attach themselves to a powerful man without wanting to care about him or his duties.
"You must have a lot of extra blood in your body." Her voice came, drawing me out of my blankness. I saw myself standing in front of the closet, busy unbuttoning my shirt while unconscious dripping blood on my clothes and the floor.
From the direction her voice was coming from, I could tell she was already in bed.
Dammit! Why did she have to see me like this?
