The Devil's Harem

Chapter 130: The change, it’s like night and day

Chapter – 130

“Shut up... Not a word... I don’t want to hear a squeak of your damn mouth. Just because you can’t have me, did you think it was a good opportunity to feel me?” Brimming with anger, Jessica asked, glaring at Alex.

Alex was still in shock over that slap, but Jessica had definitely succeeded to enrage him, “If you are so concerned about your hymen, why are you walking around shaking that thicc ass of yours, arousing desires? Chee... Acting all pure and innocent,” Alex said, spitting in front of her. He knew she was implying to him feeling those breasts and kissing her, but it was because the situation asked for it. He had no hand in it.

“You...” Jessica did not think that Alex would simply put all the blame back on her.

“All you do is... YOU this, YOU that!” Alex said, trying to imitate Jessica, “Leave... I don’t want to ruin my mood, staring at your face,” Alex waved his hand, shooing Jessica away and turned his back on her. He had no desire to argue with Jessica.

“Fucking ungrateful bitch...” Alex murmured loud enough for Jessica to hear while he caressed his cheek, trying to ease the pain. Alex couldn’t help but say it. He did not want to fight with Jessica, but the frustration needed to be handled.

“Wha...ahh... huh?” Jessica was appaled hearing Alex. She had never thought that Alex would curse her right at her face.

.....

“Just leave... Don’t make me cross that line,” Alex said without looking back at Jessica, “I am no hooligan but don’t make the mistake of thinking that I am a saint. I am already at my limit with you...” Alex warned.

“Ohho... ho... ho...” Jessica felt Alex was trying to provoke her, “Do you think I am afraid of you?” Jessica grabbed Alex by his shoulder, digging her nails in his skin and made him look at her, “I am no vegetarian to let you have your way... It will take me a second to destroy you...” Jessica threatened.

“You want to destroy me?” Alex grabbed her hand and pushed it away. He took a step forward and urged Jessica, “C’mon, do it...” Alex said as he nudged Jessica’s shoulder, hard enough to push her a step back, “Do it. I am right in front of you...”

“Stop... Don’t come near me,” Jessica said but didn’t look straight into his eyes.

But Alex did not stop, “What? Is this all you can do to destroy me?” Alex asked, slowly taking steps towards her. Jessica could feel threat, anger and annoyance in his voice. She tried to put on a brave front, but her legs gave away as she continued to back away.

Alex finally stopped, “Even I have my limits,” Alex warned, and with a swift moment, pulled out his hand close to Jessica’s face before retracting it back.

This surprised her, “Aaah...” Jessica cried out loud. To avoid his hand, Jessica leaned back, but unknown to her, she had reached the edge of the yacht and was about to fall off again.

Following the drowning incident, it was evident that Jessica was going to be afraid of water for some time. Closing her eyes in fear, Jessica was waiting to hit the water. But when it did not happen for some time, and she felt someone holding her arm, she slowly opened her eyes. In front of her stood Alex smirking at her. This time, Alex was quick to react and grabbed Jessica’s wrist to prevent the fall.

“Leave me...” Jessica angrily looked at Alex and said in a commanding tone. Instead of feeling thankful, she was even angrier.

“Are you sure?” Alex asked with a smile oozing with sweetness, trying to confirm.

“I am... Don’t make me repeat myself.” Jessica’s tone did not soften.

As soon as Alex heard her confirmation, he let go of her hand, leaving Jessica shocked. She had thought he would pull her up and then leave her, but this scenario never crossed her mind. Afraid of what was going to happen next, all she could do was scream her lungs out in fear.

But maybe Alex was not that heartless after all. He quickly grabbed hold of her again, preventing Jessica from falling off the yacht again.

“You idiot, rascal, scum, bastard, son of a bitch... pull me up,” Jessica began to curse Alex non-stop with whatever came off her tongue without thinking.

But that was her mistake. Alex really didn’t care enough to respond even when he was cursed or slapped. For him, it was not worth it. Because of that, even after getting slapped by Susan, Karen and Jessica, he never retaliated physically. He did lash out at Karen, but that was because he was angry at Susan. He never really held it against Karen, the slap, because he was the first to cross the line. As for Susan, he really did not care now. He would have also let go of Jessica after a verbal argument. But cursing his mother was a different matter. Alex did not waste any time arguing with her and in one fell swoop, pulled Jessica towards himself and put her on his shoulder like a sack.

“You shouldn’t have said that. You wanted to see me cross the line, huh?” Alex asked as he spanked her tight, round ass hard in front of everyone, “Take this...”

“Ahhh! what are you doing? Stop it. You’re hurting me,” Jessica cried out in pain.

“It’s hurting?” Alex asked sincerely and did not continue with the second one.

“Hmmm...” Alex heard Jessica. She even vigorously nodded, but Alex could not see that.

“Is that so?” Alex gave it some thought, “but isn’t that the whole point of spanking?”

And with that, Alex began bombarding her ass mercilessly. The sound of each slap echoed for everyone to hear. Even the men could not help but hold their asses, feeling the pain.

By the time he was done spanking her ass, her white ass was as red as a tomato. Jessica had tears in her eyes, ready to spill out any second. But this was not the end of her humiliation. Alex, under everyone’s watchful eyes, threw Jessica off the yacht into the sea.

Veronica stood rooted at her spot all this while. It took her some time to make things out. Looking at Alex with complicated emotions, Veronica did not waste any time and dived into the sea, fearing that something might happen to Jessica. But this time, Jessica was fine. As Jessica and veronica swam in the water, Jessica glared at Alex, ready to pounce on him and shred him to pieces.

But Alex was not bothered at all. He was ready to leave the girls on their own, but before he could do so, Abir came to their rescue.

“Umm... Alex,” Abir walked up to Alex with steady steps and called out.

“Yo... What is it, bro?” Alex was always pleased to see Abir. He put his arm around Abir and asked in a relaxed manner, “Sorry, I didn’t notice you were here.”

“No... it’s alright,” Abir looked down at his feet and said.

“So? What is it? Do you wanna talk about the matter from yesterday?” Alex asked, smiling. Alex had no idea how someone as shy as Abir was able to work in movies.

“No... Not about that... I wanted to...” Abir hesitated as his eyes turned to look at her sister floating along with Jessica.

Alex followed Abir’s gaze and understood what he wanted to say. Though he liked Abir a lot, and his personality was to his liking, he was far too shy and hesitant even by his standards. Alex felt that it was his responsibility to help Abir change that.

“C’mon say it. I am no seer to understand what you are saying by reading your mind,” Alex encouraged Abir to speak up.

“If you don’t mind... Can we... I mean you... them onboard as well?” Abir said, stammering.

Alex smiled and did not push Abir any further. It was already a good start for them. Even if Abir did not join his company, Alex wanted to make friends with Abir, not boss him around.

“I will... If you promise to give my offer some serious thought, will you?” Alex said and looked at Abir with expectation.

Abir nodded hard, assuring Alex.

Satisfied, Alex turned towards Veronica, “Bring her aboard. I don’t want you both to die on my watch...” Alex said loud enough for Veronica and Jessica to hear, “Her ghost won’t let me live in peace for the rest of my life,” Alex murmured to himself.

Veronica did not hear what Alex and Abir talked about, but she was smart enough to understand that it was because of Abir that Alex had allowed them to come aboard his yacht.

But Jessica was unwilling to step on that yacht now. She had already been humiliated enough for her entire life. If Jessica were to step on that boat now, she would be nothing but a thin-skinned hypocrite. But when Veronica whispered and tried to make her think with a clear head, she reluctantly agreed.

“Let’s leave,” As soon as the two of them climbed up the yacht, Alex told the men he came with. He was no longer in the mood to snorkel.

The sun was about to set, and wearing his bathrobe, Alex lay relaxed, trying to enjoy the scene with a can of coke in his hand, but he could not.

‘I should not have spanked her in front of everyone,’ Alex could not get the scene out of his head. In that moment of anger, he really crossed the line.

‘Those perverts... They got to enjoy a free show,’ Alex sighed, ‘Should I apologise? But she crossed the line first... And I just paid back... So we should be even, right?’ Alex tried to reason out the conflict in his heart.

‘I am willing to let go... But what if she still held onto that?’ Alex thought of every possibility, ‘Should I retaliate?”

Alex was still thinking about what he should do next when the doorbell of his room rang. Putting the can on the table, Alex got up from his chair and slowly walked up to the door. He opened the door but slammed it back the next second.

On the other side of the room was Jessica. When they returned to the room, she was fuming in anger, thinking of ways to retaliate. But Veronica made her calm down and narrated the events in the correct chronology. How Alex saved her, how it was Veronica who urged him to the CPR and everything else.

Jessica was no fool. Now that she had a moment to ponder over it, Alex did save her life, and she should be grateful for that, but what happened after that still left a bloat in her throat. She could not swallow her anger. Coincidentally, Karen called at that moment. When she heard Jessica almost drowned, she panicked, but hearing that Jessica was saved by Alex, Karen was first surprised, then relaxed, and disappointed in the end.

Karen also took some time to make Jessica realise that it was her who was always poking Alex from the beginning. It was only natural that Alex would react. Karen told her that she hoped that Jessica would sort out her differences with Alex, make a new friend, and enjoy her life.

Finally, Jessica felt guilty. Not just for slapping Alex in front of everyone but for every time she deliberately made things hard for him. With a newfound resolve, Jessica decided to apologise.

But just as he opened the door, before she could even greet him, he slammed the door in her face.

‘No, don’t get angry. I am here to apologise, not to create a scene. Relax! Fuh... uhh...’ Jessica took a couple of deep breaths before she rang the bell again, but Alex did not open the door.

Jessica was stubborn as well. She continued to stand outside his room for more than five minutes, ringing the bell. Finally, Alex gave in.

“What do you want? I am not a great man like Mahatma. I won’t offer you my other cheek if slapped on one. Believe it or not, I will not hesitate to smack your ass again, right here and right now.” Alex said as soon he opened the door.

Alex’s voice was loud enough for everyone in the hallway to hear. Jessica’s face turned beetroot, remembering the spanking she got earlier that day.

She grabbed Alex’s arm and dragged him inside the room, closing the door behind her.

“Hey...Hey...Hey... don’t just barge in uninvited....” Alex protested.

“Sorry!” Jessica did not beat around the bush and directly apologised.

“Huh?” Alex thought he heard it wrong.

“I said, I am sorry,” Jessica said louder this time.

“Are you sure you are in the right room?” Alex asked and opened the room to check if he was in his room or not. He did not believe that her emotions would just flip right, and she was grateful to him now.

Irked by his behaviour, ” Don’t take it too far.” Jessica said.

“Don’t get me wrong...” Alex said, closing the door, “It’s just hard to believe...”

“Beleive it or not, it’s up to you,” Jessica said.

“You are here to apologise, but your tone is quite commanding. Don’t you think?” Alex shrugged, not sensing the sincerity in her tone.

“You...” Jessica was about to burst out again, but she knew what she was here to do. Jessica took a deep breath, “Fine, I am sorry”.

“You know there is still something lacking.” Hearing Jessica, Alex could not help but want to tease her more.

“Now, what more do you want?”

“Well, a smile would do the trick,” Alex said, gesturing with his hand for her to smile.

Though Jessica was annoyed, she wanted to be done with this. With a stiff smile on her face, she said, ” I am sorry for what I did today. I hope you will not take it to your heart.”

Alex wanted to laugh, but he controlled himself somehow, “Now that’s what I am talking about. Come, let’s celebrate us becoming friends with a meal, but you will foot the bill”.

“When did we become friends?” Jessica was surprised by the sudden newly formed relationship between them.

“Just now,” Alex said, and with his arms around her neck, and dragged her out of his room. It was all too sudden, but Jessica, who didn’t like being touched by men, did not feel repulsed by Alex, “Give me two minutes to change,” Alex said and walked inside his room, closing the door behind.

.....

“We are not friends,” Jessica yelled from outside the room, ‘At least not yet.’
