In The Jaws Of Danger
When the guards came in and saw Anna’s attire, they abruptly didn’t quite know where to look
anymore. Some of them even started burning up with a single glance.
I’ve long since known that Ms. Anna is a beauty, yet I never thought that not only is she stunning, but
she also has a great figure. If I even get to bed her once…
At that line of thought, the guard hastily clamped his legs together, afraid that someone would notice
his awkward condition.
“Why are you all standing around? Hurry up and do as I instructed!”
Hearing her orders, the guards snapped back to their senses at once. They marched over to the
bathroom and broke the door. Vinson pinned a sharp gaze on the guards who appeared without
warning.
As the guards studied the man who had just taken a cold shower and cast their minds back to Anna’s
attire, it suddenly dawned upon them that Anna wanted to seduce Vinson but failed.
Anna, on the other hand, saw red at the sight of Vinson all aloof. She pointed a finger at him. “Take him
away and have him do all the dirty and tiring chores henceforth!”
After saying that, she stared at him fixedly. Her eyes inexorably turned red-rimmed when he continued
turning a blind eye to her and ignoring her completely. Biting her lip, she added resentfully, “B-Beg me
now. As long as you do so, I won’t have you lift a single finger!”
Vinson didn’t reply to that. Instead, he turned to the guards and urged, “Aren’t you to take me to the
slave camp? Make it quick!”
He didn’t want to stay there at all, for it was practically impossible to keep his guard up at all times. He
was really fearful that she would drug him at every turn, and he wasn’t immortal to remain alive without
eating and drinking.
His words had Anna going off the deep end. I’ve already taken a step back, yet he’s still unwilling to
yield! She roared at the guards, “Take him away! Send him to the slave camp immediately! Have him
do all the dirty and tiring chores! I want him to do the filthiest and most exhausting chores!”
The guards looked at Vinson as though he was an idiot.
It’d be great to be with Ms. Anna, having abundant food and living in a mansion. On top of that, he’d
even have such a beauty like her to keep him company. How wonderful! Verily, he’s a fool!
As they criticized him inwardly, they took him out of the mansion. Anna stood at the door, trembling in
fury as she watched them escort Vinson away.
Am I really that unappealing to him that he’d rather go and stay at the slave camp instead of begging
me and submitting to me?
Snorting, she spun on her heel and went back to her room. I shall see how long he can persevere!
Meanwhile, Arielle couldn’t hold out when she went to bed at night due to her physical condition. She
slumbered deeply despite her increased vigilance since she had just awakened from a coma that day.
Several days passed without Sophia making a move against her. Clyde came over to keep her
company daily, listening to her narration of “Peter and Wendy.” Even the meals delivered by the
housekeeper were ones that facilitated her recovery.
Consequently, her condition improved. In the past two days, she got out of bed and went on strolls in
the courtyard every day to stretch her muscles.
In fact, Arielle felt that she would be back to normal in another two days. At that time, she would be
able to talk with Sophia.
In the past few days, she learned from Clyde that one must have a visa issued by the general if one
wanted to leave the island.
She felt that she could negotiate with Sophia to send her out of the island. In return, she would do her
best to fulfill whatever the latter demanded.
Alas, the best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry. She was already in the jaws of danger before
she could execute her plan.
