Chapter 11

Kayden had just stepped out of the bathroom in a bathrobe when he heard a knock on the door. 

He had sent Mike for a change of clothes, so he knew he must be the one at the door as he approached and opened it. 

“Hi boss, I brought your clothes,” Mike said and tried to help himself into the suite but stopped abruptly when he saw Kayden's unreadable expression and his body unmoving, blocking the doorway. 

Mike could tell the boss didn't want him to enter, noticing his strange behavior. 

“Erm… Boss,” Mike said and awkwardly scratched his head before taking a glance around him and whispering to Kayden in a low voice when he saw the coast was clear. 

“Miss Vanessa said you told her to leave… Um, did you find someone else because she took too long? We've already made arrangements to take her to the hospital without anyone noticing.” 

Kayden's aura grew cold at Mike's words, and his eyes darkened as he gazed at him like a grim reaper about to collect his soul. 

‘Was Mike calling him a freak? Besides, he had not used any sex tools, whips, or cuffs on her. He had been very gentle with Ariana,’ he thought angrily.

Mike felt the temperature in the atmosphere drop abruptly, causing him to feel cold all of a sudden as a shiver ran down his spine. But hearing no sounds from the room, Mike's mind couldn't help but wander and conjure up absurd scenarios. 

‘Could it be that the woman couldn't take the boss's brutality and died?’ he thought in panic. He admitted his boss was powerful, but they were in a law-abiding country; hiding a murder wouldn't be something easy. 

“B—boss, could it be that she… she…” Mike stammered, unable to complete his sentence.

Kayden gave him a deathly glare, and Mike gulped.

“She's sleeping, you idiot,” Kayden said simply and shut the door in Mike's face. He could already tell what the idiot was thinking. 

Mike stared at the closed door in both surprise and curiosity. He wanted to know which woman was in the suite with his boss, and his ignorance was killing him. 

‘Did the boss just say the strange woman was sleeping? What kind of surprising news was this?’ Mike thought. 

Mike had begun working with Kayden two years ago after he completed his first mission. Those were some dark times because the boss's sexual urges felt more like a curse rather than an illness. 

Mike could recall that, in the first few months after completing his first mission, anytime the boss had a session with any of his contracted sex slaves, he would call him into the room after he was done with them for him to clean up the room and give the women some pain medication and tender loving care. 

Those TLCs included huge sums of money for spa treatments and medical care for any bruises that might have been inflicted on them during the session.

Most times, Mike remembered how those women would be whimpering in pain, and some of them would look as if their lives had been sucked out of them, but the surprising thing was that those women, if it was for the money or they were also into weird kinks like the boss, would still come back for more as soon as they heard the boss wanted to see them. 

It was thanks to Vanessa that the boss had finally stopped summoning those women. She was the boss's longest sex slave to date and knew the boss from more than two years ago when he was captured by his enemies on that island during his first mission. 

Vanessa was also currently the only one the boss had been summoning over for the past 18 months because she had also been captured as a prostitute by the same organization that captured the boss, and the boss had helped her escape from that hellhole when he finally retaliated against his enemies and gained his freedom. 

Due to Vanessa's long years as a captured prostitute and being the plaything of several men, she was the perfect candidate who could handle Kayden's weird kinks.

Kayden had hated fucking different women due to his condition, so when Vanessa showed she could handle him, he heavily compensated the other women and set them free.

Maybe that was why Vanessa thought she was someone special to the boss and always threw her weight around acting like his wife.

Today, for instance, she should have arrived first and waited for the boss, but instead, she decided to come late, making the boss pounce on an innocent woman. 

Mike could remember the envious look on Vanessa's face a few hours ago when she complained about the boss being in the room with another woman. 

She looked like a jealous and neglected concubine in ancient times who had caught her husband in an act of debauchery with some unworthy palace maid. Serves her right.

Mike stood at the door like a statue, lost in thought, with his mind reeling from everything that had happened tonight until he saw the boss come out of the suite looking impeccably dressed. 

“Have you made arrangements for the video conference with the overseas branch?” Kayden asked, and Mike nodded. 

“Yes sir, everything is ready,” he said, and Kayden continued to walk towards the elevator, not bothering himself with the man behind him who kept sneaking glances at the closed door of his suite. 

Kayden took a look at his wristwatch and saw he still had a few minutes to spare. It was 1:20 am, and the meeting would take place at 3:00 am in the study room of his penthouse. 

He was hosting a video conference with the heads of department and shareholders of Evergreen Corp, a company he was a major shareholder of in Italy. 

Since Italy was 5 hours ahead of New York, at 3:00 am, it would be 8:00 am there, and he'd have an early morning meeting with them to discuss the company's upcoming big project.

Kayden took a glance back at the door and wondered if he had left her all alone too soon. Maybe he should just hurry up and finish the meeting so that he can return to her. 

He could already tell from how tired she looked that she would sleep through the night and wake up in the morning.
