In love with your fragrance, I won't succumb to illness. The only cure for your ailment is me...
———— Adrian and Melody Parker.
River City, after a heavy rain, the entire city was washed clean.
Being a coastal city, the fresh air carried the sweet and salty scent of the sea.
At eight in the evening, outside the presidential suite of the Nighthaven Grand Hotel, two men dragged Melody Parker, and with a "bang", kicked the door open.
They roughly threw Melody Parker onto the large bed, quickly shut the door, and left.
Melody Parker was thrown onto the bed, feeling dizzy.
She felt so hot... as if thousands of ants were crawling all over her body.
Today was her eighteenth birthday, and her stepmother Phoebe and sister Lily had called her here, saying they were celebrating her birthday.
She only drank a glass of drink given by her stepmother Phoebe, and before the birthday cake was cut, she started feeling unwell, and then was brought to this room by someone.
What... exactly was happening here?
Melody Parker's pale hand slowly reached out, the cold sheets felt comforting, and her burning-hot, flushed face rubbed against the silk sheets.
So uncomfortable...
At the end of the hotel corridor, a fat, middle-aged man was smilingly walking over. Thinking of that delicate girl, he swallowed his saliva, striding towards the presidential suite.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Suddenly, deafening gunshots echoed in the corridor, followed by a dozen black-clad figures rushing over from the end of the corridor, with smoke rising in the dimly lit corridor.
At this moment, a gun was pointed at the head of the fat man who had just wanted to step into the presidential suite, a low, cold voice appearing, "Get lost!"
"This... this is my room!" The fat man trembled with fear.
"If you want to live, hurry and get lost!"
"Click!"
The sound of a trigger being pulled made the fat man's whole body stiffen, "Alright... don't shoot, I'm leaving!"
As the fat man turned to leave, with a "bang", the president suite door was kicked open and then locked from the inside.
The lighting in the room was somewhat dim; the man who entered scanned the room with vigilant phoenix eyes, rapidly turning off all the lights in the room.
He headed straight for the bedroom, preparing to open the window and escape from the balcony, but unexpectedly discovered a woman sleeping on the large bed in the bedroom!
By the purple light of the bedside lamp, he saw the woman's long, sleek black hair splayed across the white bed, and her palm-sized face flushed as charmingly beautiful as the evening glow.
She was wearing a red dress, her petite body rubbing against the white large bed, emitting soft murmurs.
The room was filled with a faint fragrance, accentuated by the purplish-red light, making the man's long legs heading towards the balcony pause!
Squinting his phoenix eyes, his gaze coldly settled on the woman on the bed, who was softly murmuring about being hot!
"Bang! Bang!"
The gunshots in the corridor continued relentlessly, snapping the man back to reality as he strode towards the balcony.
However, he quickly discovered three shadows approaching on the balcony!
The man squinted his dark phoenix eyes, quickly moved to the bathroom, shed his black overcoat and trousers in just a few moves, turned on the faucet, and tucked the gun into the toilet tank...
Having done all this, the man strode back to the bedroom, looking at the girl on the bed, he gritted his teeth, picked her up, his big hands tearing away her already scant red dress, and cuddled her into the covers...
At this moment, the door was kicked open with a "bang", and in the darkness, the man's phoenix eyes contracted sharply, lowering his head, he kissed the girl's lips in his arms.
Melody Parker was in a daze; suddenly she felt a chill, then immediately fell into a warm embrace.
She quickly opened her eyes, meeting a pair of cold phoenix eyes belonging to a man.
Melody Parker trembled all over in fear, "Who are you...?"
Before she could utter "who", the man's lips blocked hers...
"Ah——!"
The girl's broken voice pierced through the darkness, the man's dark eyes staring at the girl whose small face turned pale with pain like a beast.
In the corner of the room, six or seven men in black held guns, glaring fiercely at the bed.
The girl's soft gasps of pain made them slowly retreat until the leader of the black-clad men made a low gesture, "Retreat!"
Outside the corridor, the armed men retreated swiftly and silently as they had come, the leader of the black-clad men slowly removed his sunglasses, and several subordinates immediately approached, "Master, is it possible that he isn't..."
"Impossible!" The man's face was extremely unsightly, "Adrian Davies detests women like filth since youth; how could he be pressing down a woman for a roll in the sheets!"
"Yes!" The footsteps grew distant, accompanied by the man's fierce order, "Guard the Nighthaven Hotel, as long as he's here, there's no escape!"
Calm resumed outside the room, but inside, a shocking plunder was far from over.
Adrian Davies lowered his eyes at the girl beneath him, her face was a sickly white; he couldn't see her features clearly, but her scent was intoxicating. Her luscious lips, like a rose, were already bitten by him!
For over twenty years, he had loathed women as filth, let alone kissing them.
The girl beneath him was the only one able to approach him, just because of the subtle fragrance emanating from her, as refreshing as the sea, making him not repel her, but want to savor it further.
Those outside had already gone away.
Because the girl beneath him was still softly nestled in his arms.
Everything about her made his blood rush in reverse, heedless of cherishing her, he plundered once again...
The subtle sound in the girl's breath made him lose control instantly.
This girl must have been drugged! Well then, he'd be the good guy here.
Tonight, he'll be her antidote!
Thinking this, he began to plunder wantonly, in the darkness, his bright black phoenix eyes stared at the girl's expression of pain mixed with pleasure.
In the dim light, he never fully saw the girl's features, yet could feel this fragrance was the cure to his redemption.
Adrian Davies kissed her lips, his deep voice resonating in her ear, "Relax a bit!"
Ten minutes later, Adrian Davies finished, intending to leave for the bathroom, but the girl held him tightly, still humming incessantly.
A trace of indulgence passed through Adrian's cold brows and eyes, this girl's drug was too potent, probably not enough!
Indeed, ten minutes wasn't enough!
