Chapter 971
Inside a castle in Lostaria, Johanna had been asleep for a long time before waking up and finding herself in an
unfamiliar place.
The bed was huge, and the sheets were velvety. It was easy for one to sleep soundly on this comfortable bed. There
was a gorgeous brightly colored bed curtain on top of the bed and walnut furniture everywhere in sight. Even the
painting hanging on the wall was expensive.
The entire bedroom was luxuriously decorated, and she felt like she was in a palace.
Johanna was taken aback to realize her surroundings seemed unfamiliar. She racked her brains to figure out what
had happened before she lost consciousness and how she was brought to this place.
I hailed a taxi, and there was a man inside...
Suddenly, the door to the bedroom was pushed open, and a tall figure strode in. He was clad in a simple shirt and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtslacks but looked menacing and dangerous.
Zephyr's lips curled when he saw Johanna was awake. He bent over and said, “Kitty, you're awake?”
Johanna pulled up the covers and moved away from him.
She wasn't a fool, so she knew it was this man who had brought her here.
Suddenly, Johanna realized something was wrong. She looked down and noticed she was clad in a thin silk
nightdress. She wasn't wearing anything underneath it.
Gripping the covers, she forced herself to stay calm. “If you want money, I can give you any amount you ask for.”
Hearing that, Zephyr burst into laughter.
He sat at the edge of the bed nonchalantly and watched as Johanna inched away from him as though she was a
mouse running away from a cat.
“I know Forlisle Medical is one of the biggest medical companies in Chanaea. Your ex-husband is wealthy.” Zephyr
removed his cufflinks, tossed them on the bedside table, and sighed as he added, “Alas, I'm not in need of money.”
His excited gaze landed on Johanna as though he was a predator that had found its prey.
“I'm more interested in you,” he declared.
A chill ran down Johanna's back. She wanted to jump off the other side of the bed when he wasn't looking, but the
moment she moved, he grabbed her ankle and dragged her back to the bed. He then climbed into the bed and
pinned her beneath him.
“Let me go!” Johanna roared and gave him a hard slap across the face.
Zephyr didn't dodge and allowed the slap to land on his cheek.
Johanna had been unconscious for the past few days as she was drugged. Hence, her body was weak. It seemed
she had used all her might to deliver the slap, but actually, the man didn't even feel any pain.
Zephyr let out a low chuckle and glanced at her. “It turns out Kitty is a stray with sharp claws.”
He grabbed the woman's hands with one hand and took a huge gulp of the wine he placed on the bedside table.
Then, he bent down and grabbed Johanna's chin, forcing her to open her mouth. Pressing his lips against hers, he
fed her the wine in his mouth.
Johanna struggled with all her might and tried to close her mouth, but she couldn't stop swallowing the liquid in
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmreflex when it trickled down her throat.
Zephyr took another gulp and fed the wine to her again.
He did the same action a few times until the wineglass was empty. Licking his lips, he seemed to be savoring the
softness of Johanna's lips.
After that, Zephyr released his grip on Johanna and narrowed his gaze as a smile flitted across his lips.
Johanna scrambled up and tried to flee the bedroom. She usually had a high tolerance for alcohol but for some
reason, she could feel herself slowly lose consciousness after being fed the wine.
What is wrong? Am I drunk?
Gradually, Johanna realized something was horribly wrong. Her last shred of sanity told her to run as fast as she
could, but she couldn't even move an inch.
In a daze, she sensed someone coming close to her, softly caressing her cheek and lips. She couldn't help but inch
closer and wrapped her arms around the man's neck before offering him a kiss.
The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and passion ensued in the bedroom. Laughter and sobs filled the
room.
