Daniel drove to his favorite hotel and as soon as he stepped down from his car, he was surrounded by some press men who had sighted him and followed him
"Sir, what do you have to say about your wife's betrayal?"
"Why do you think she cheated on you?"
Daniel paused and glared at them, "get the fuck outta my way" he snarled and they shivered at the look on his face, Daniel's face fell on the name crested on the shirt of one
"Anthony Shlok, if you still love your press company and do not want it to suddenly blow up or something, get the fuck away from me" he snarled and glared at the others, "the same thing applied to every one of you"
They all shifted backward to allow him to pass but one was bold enough to confront him, "Are you threatening us?"
Daniel paused and took a step towards the man. The pressman must have realized his mistake because he suddenly shifted backward and his hands trembled a little
"I am not threatening you, it's a promise and if you want to see what I can do, then go ahead and air this"
The pressmen lowered their cameras and watched Daniel go into the hotel.
Daniel needed something strong, something to ease the pain he was actually feeling
"What can I get for you, sir?" The attendant asked as he approached Daniel with a sympathetic look on his face, everyone now knows the story about his wife cheating on him and most of them feel sympathetic towards him, he was a man to be feared but he was also someone loved and respected by many because he had helped a lot of needy out there, hence their loyalty lies with him
"Something very strong Samson," he replied and the attendant nodded in understanding before leaving to bring a bottle of a very strong French wine.
"I will be needing more than a bottle," Daniel said and opened the bottle of wine.
He poured into a glass and gulped, he shook his head at the impact, this was indeed a very strong wine, pouring himself another glass, he gulped it all at once, loving the feeling the wine was eliciting in his body, tonight, he will drink until he forgets about the image of Bella and that lover of hers, even for a moment, he wanted that image out of his head.
He felt a hand on his shoulder and Joana sat in front of him, "I thought you'd be needing company" she murmured
"I want to be alone" Daniel replied as he finished the first bottle and opened another
"I understand how you feel but in times like this, you don't need to be alone, I'm here for you"
"I don't need you, get the hell out of here" Daniel clenched out and Joana gritted her teeth, she did not understand why he was being difficult, most men need someone by their side when they're depressed but Nikolai kept pushing everyone away. She knew better than to insist or throw a tantrum so she quietly stood up and left him alone even though she was not happy with it. She had spent a lot to know where he was and he just threw her off, she always had her way or whatever she wanted and her eyes were fixed on Nikolai Klaus and she would certainly have him.
Daniel had finished five bottles and was still requesting for more, the attendant looked at him worriedly, this was one of the strongest alcoholic wines he had and just a bottle could knock off someone but Daniel had finished five of it. He was looking so out of it already and the attendant was reluctant to give him another one, to have finished five bottles and still hasn't fallen off drunk shows Daniel's strong will power
"Sir please" he begged, wishing Daniel would listen to him and not take another
"Just one more, I promise" Daniel replied, his voice a little bit slurred and the attendant reluctantly brought one more bottle for him.
Daniel took one more and stood up to leave, he tilted a little but remained firm on his feet
"Sir, let me take you home please," Oliver said and Daniel glanced at him in surprise,
"What are you doing here? I didn't call you"
"I'm sorry Sir, I was worried about you and decided to tail you in order to keep an eye on you"
"I am fine Oliver and I can drive myself"
"Please Sir, allow me" Oliver insisted and Daniel sighed as he handed the car key to Oliver.
"I loved her Oliver, I gave my all to her but she betrayed me," Daniel said, Oliver understood that his boss just needed a listening ear and so he gave that to him
He listened to all his boss's complaints and didn't utter a word, he just listened.
*******************************************
Bella was still coiled up in the living room when the door opened and Daniel walked in. His gaze fell on her as he shut the door behind him and his lips twisted in disgust
Bella's heart broke into a million pieces, he had always looked at her with love and tenderness but it had been replaced by disgust and anger, she couldn't bear it and she walked towards him, hoping he would hear her out
"Daniel..." She started but he cuts her short
Daniel grabbed her hands and jerked her towards him, "you enjoyed being a slut right?" He snarled and she tried to wiggle free of him
He reeked of alcohol and she tried to push him away from her, "You are drunk and do not know what you are saying or doing"
"I am very much sane. Sane to recognize a slut when I see one"
"Daniel..."
He covered her lips with his and kissed her hard but it wasn't filled with passion neither was it gentle, she tried to break free but he wouldn't allow her
"You enjoyed being f^cked by that bastard" he clenched out as he ripped her clothes off her body
"No please, don't do this"
"You moaned his name when he took you, the whole world is watching how slutty you were in bed with him, maybe I should make a video of this too"
Tears streamed down Bella's cheeks as she fought against him but he was big and unyielding and he was about to take her in the cruelest way possible, he pinched her nipple hard and she cried out in pain but Daniel didn't care, the only thing still playing in his head was the video of she and Jeremy
"You plotted to run away with that jerk and that too with my money"
"No Daniel, I can never do that" she pleaded and tried to move away from him as he undo his zipper but he caught her leg and dragged her towards him, he swiftly removed her skirt from her and ripped her panties apart
"I am going to take you just as you love being taken. Like a slut" he clenched out and flung her legs apart, holding her hands above her head, he swiftly entered her.
It was rough and without love, he pounded into her furiously but Bella's body still responded to him, his thrust elicited pleasure and pain in her and she found herself moaning in pleasure and pain
"That's it bitch, keep it going" he murmured into her ears and she tried to still her body from reacting, she was about to cum but he was faster than her, not caring about her satisfaction, he emptied his seed deep inside her and rolled away from her as if she had a terribly contagious disease.
He left her lying there feeling unsatisfied and hollow, he actually sees her like a whore and treated her as one.
He zipped up his trousers and bringing out a few coins from his pocket, he threw them at her, "Here is your payment for your service and this is what you're worth"
She rolled to her side as tears streamed from her eyes while he went upstairs and shut the door firmly behind him. His actions show he did not want her anywhere near him.
