Chapter 44

Ariel woke up with a blinding headache, a piercing headache she'd never felt before.

She winced as the pain hit her hard when she tried to open her eyes. She slowed down for a second, trying to remember where she was. She could feel the soft bed beneath her body, letting her know she was lying on the bed. But she couldn't even remember how she got to the bed; all she could remember was Viktor asking her to drink two glasses of alcohol, and any event after that was a blurry vision in her mind; she couldn't give an account for anything after that.

She felt her body aching all over and slowly went to stretch herself but suddenly paused when she felt someone's hard body behind her, that's when she also noticed that there was a heavy hand holding her possessively on her waist.

'Something wasn't right!' She thought in alarm.

She neglected the pounding headache and slowly forced her eyes open. She urgently needed to see what was happening around her.
