106 BEAUTY IN DISTRESS
ARIEL’S POV
Glaring at Daniel, I had to bite his hand vigorously, causing him to let go of me. I had no idea what he was thinking, or the crap he was planning to do, but it was definitely bullshit. And I had no time for bullshit. This was a place for business, an office for work, and if he was planning to do something else, then he wasn’t welcome here.
“What is wrong with you, Daniel? Can you give me an explanation for this attitude?” I snapped, standing up.
Daniel gave me that ribald look, scanning my whole body, from up to down. It was really crazy, and I only hoped he had not come here to carry out what I was thinking. He wouldn’t even dare.
“Ariel, Ariel, Ariel. What a sweet little thing you are.”
I made a puzzled face. “Excuse me?”
Daniel moved backwards, dragging the desk along. My phone had to fall on the floor, along with some other files. And when he was done creating so much noise, he advanced towards me.
I slowly walked backwards. “You better stop right there, and don’t you come closer, okay?” I warned him, cause it seemed like he had lost his senses.
“What are you going to do if I don’t listen to you?” His coarse smirk still lingered on his face, as he continued to traipse towards me.
“I’m warning you.” I raised my finger at me. And then I realized I couldn’t move back any further. My back was now leaning against the wall.
“Looks like the little princess has nowhere to go.”
“The little princess? What the heck!” I bawled.
He hastened his steps until he finally got close to me. And he kept on with that smirk of his. I couldn’t tell if I was actually scared, or annoyed and irritated.
When he came to my office the previous day, making an angry face, and telling me that Luke did shit to him, I kind of felt sorry. But with this disgusting attitude, it was clear that Luke had a reasonable explanation for his actions.
“What do you want?“/I asked bitterly, not putting an end to my glare.
“Isn’t it obvious? I want you.” He moved his face closer, and his lips were about to come in contact with mine, but I turned my face away.
“Look at me you bitch!” He forcefully seized my jaws, and made me look at him.
Well, my glare spoke a lot of things, and I spat on his face. To hell with him and his comeliness, or whatever. It was really rude of him to address me that way.
“How dare you?” He displayed a threatening stare.
“And how dare you come into my office, and start pulling off this nonsense? Don’t you know I can get you arrested?”
He laughed. “You don’t even have the balls to. Oh, I forgot, you got none.”
I pushed him backwards, he almost fell down, but he kept his balance. I scanned the office, looking for anything that could help me against this lunatic in this situation. And then he transposed to me again, pressing both of my hands against the wall.
“Let me go!” I shrieked, struggling to get his hands off mine. “Don’t you dare try to touch me.”
“Shut up! I said shut up!” He snarled.
His force aggrandized as he pressed his body against mine. I could feel his breath, and I never wanted that. I continued to struggle to put an end to this nonsense, but he was ten times stronger than me. If I could get out of this situation right now, without anything terrible happening to me. I’d go straight to the gym.
Today had to show me that it exceedingly was fucked up. The early morning nonsense from Luke, now these? The individuals usually surrounding me had made my life look like it was a movie.
“Somebody help!” I cried out, hoping someone would hear me out. Whoever was going to get me out of this, I would be grateful for the rest of my entire life.
“Someone help!” I screamed again.
“Why are you shouting? No one’s going to save you. Do you hear me? So it’s best you just shut that mouth of yours.”
Glaring at me, I decided to kneel his balls, but he snappily dodged the attack, moving in the left direction. He gave me a hard slap after that, and I had no other option but to fall down. I was breathing heavily, and if I had to glance at the mirror now, I knew I’d look so horrible.
Daniel squatted, getting adjacent to me. He forcefully grabbed my hair, and I felt his tongue on my neck. I shook my body vigorously, hoping that would stop him from executing this nonsense. Well, for the moment.
Daniel stood up, dragging me along. His grip on my hair was just too tight, as he

pulled it extremely hard, letting the pain was all over me.
I shut both of my eyes, trying to take his hand off my hair. And then he began to choke me.
“Your husband will be the one responsible for what’s going to happen to you today,” he whispered into my ears. His tone filled with so much bitterness, and I didn’t even know if this was the Daniel that I made friends with. His friendly had changed, and it was clear that he was just putting on an act the whole time. What a hypocrite he was.
“What did he do?” I asked, my tone not that clear, the words barely coming out of my mouth, all because he pressed on with his aggressive act.
“He’ll tell you, when you narrate this scene to him.”
Daniel quickly shoved me against the wall, still snaring both of my hands forcefully. Standing behind me, he pressed his body against mine, and I could feel him getting hard on me. It was so irritating, but what could I do? Absolutely nothing. If only someone can just appear right now, and beat the hell out of this
man.
He wanted to lift my dress up, but I shook my body continuously, trying my best to stop him from doing that. He slapped my butt very hard, and I shrieked in pain, closing my eyes.
“You better behave yourself, bitch!” His rude words echoed through my ears.
All of a sudden, we heard multiple knocks on the door. “Mrs. Reynold, it’s Rose. Your husband is here to see you.”
Daniel froze promptly. “Your husband? What is he doing here?”
I glared at him, without responding, and I wanted to elbow him, but he hooked my arm, and pressed my face against the wall. It was really painful.
The knock on the door continued, and it even got louder. “Mrs. Reynold. Are you in there?”
“Ariel, it’s me. Open the door.” I heard Luke’s voice. And for some reason, I felt kind of safe.
“Luke!” I screamed immediately. “Help me!”
“You better shut up,” Daniel said lowly.
“It’s too late now,” I replied underneath my breath. And then I screamed, “Luke help! This man is trying to…”
Daniel covered my mouth once again, and pushed me to the floor, getting on top

of me promptly. I kept trying to speak, but his hands covered my mouth. Well, my hums were loud for someone to hear me.
