Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Paul was bundled up so tightly that Noah could walk past the bodyguards with him under his arms, and they were none the wiser. Nancy and Crystal were giggling, though, and although that seemed unusual, the guards did not think too much about it.

"What is up with them?" one of them asked. "They are just girls," the other replied.

"Nothing but space in their heads, as you know!" They both laughed.

Nancy smiled and leaned over so that she could whisper into Crystal's ear: "There is nothing worse than an idiot that doesn't know how dumb they are."

Crystal nodded, and once they were a safe distance from the guards, she said, "We are ready for the next phase of our plan."

Nancy was uncomfortable with the smell of Paul, and she proposed that they bathe him before they do anything else.

"We could do that," Crystal replied. Then she turned to Noah and said, "Bring Paul to Nathan's room. I will arrange a couple of servants to join us."

When Crystal entered Nathan's room, he was caught off guard by her cheerful disposition. "Why are you so happy?" he asked. He had rarely seen her so delighted.

Crystal went about her business without replying.

Nathan frowned. "Crystal, didn't you hear my question?" He had always been an arrogant man, and he could not stand to be ignored. She knew this, and she was acting deliberately. Despite his insistent tone of voice, she did not even look at him.

Noah arrived with Paul under his arm, and Crystal pointed at the swivel chair. "Put him here."

Noah frowned. "The chair is too small," he said.

"We'll have to unroll him," Crystal explained as she closed and locked the door. "Do you understand?"

"I do," Noah replied hesitantly. This idea did not seem prudent to him, but he followed the direction he had been given, and in a matter of minutes, Paul was sitting on the chair. He was naked, and there was a dirty sock stuck in his mouth. His face was red and blotchy, and he had a gloomy but furious expression on his face.

Crystal stood in front of him with her arms folded beneath her breasts. She looked him in the eyes and said, "If you try anything, I will poke out your eyeballs. And don't even think about trying to get that sock out of your mouth!"

While she was talking, Nancy had been rummaging through the dresser drawers. Once she found a pair of underwear, she passed it to a servant and said, "Get these on him, would you?"

The carpet had been bound by a hemp rope which Noah used to bind Paul to the chair. Instead of tying him up in a normal sitting position, though, he tied him upside down. His calves were flush against the armrest, and his head was resting uncomfortably on the floor.

As Noah completed this task, Crystal and Nancy-and even Nathan-burst into gales of uncontrollable laughter. "You had better pee yourself," Noah told Paul. "If you do, it will end up all over your face..."

Paul felt like he had gone from the frying pan and straight into the fire. He had never been so embarrassed in this life. He wanted to fight back, but he could not. And to make matters worse for him, Crystal pulled out her phone and took several pictures of him. "A little insurance," she said.

Once Noah's task was complete, he collapsed onto the floor, and Crystal suddenly realized how exhausted he was. She said, "Thank you so much... for everything. But how are you holding up? With all of your injuries, maybe you shouldn't have been doing all of this hard work..."

Noah smiled and said, "Don't worry. I'm fine. I'm just tired. That's all."

Crystal nodded knowingly. "You should get some rest. I will call you when we need you again."

Noah nodded, thanked them both, and left. Once the door was closed behind him, Nancy turned to Crystal and asked, "Do you think we might be going too far...?"

"I don't think we're going far enough," Crystal replied. "After everything that he has done to you, I am surprised that you would ask that. You are too kind. Do you know that?" "I have been told that," Nancy admitted.

"And, as usual, you are right."

"Of course, I am!" Crystal exclaimed. "This man deserves to be cut up and fed to Wolf. He should be grateful that we are showing him mercy!"

"This is what you call mercy?!?!" Nathan exclaimed.

Crystal " Boop's" him on the nose, and in a congenial tone of voice, she said, "Shut up, will you? You are not improving your situation." Nathan glared at Crystal, but he didn't say anything.

"So, what now?" Nancy asked.

"I think that it is time to let him see his good friend," Nancy replied. "If you open the door to the next room, I will push him in. I think you will like what I have in the next room."

Nancy's brow furrowed. What is she talking about?- she wondered.

Of course, nothing could have prepared Nancy for the sight of Eric chained to his bed. "We are a couple of bitches..." she muttered. "Every man in this house is bound to a bed or chair... What's wrong with us...?"

"What's wrong with us? "Crystal scoffed.

"There is nothing wrong with us. We have a right not to be abused, and not every man is bound. Noah is fine, and that is because he is a good man. These three are not!"

Nancy saw the truth in her friend's words, but she was too overwhelmed to say so.

Eric was shocked by the sight of Paul. He glared at Nancy and Crystal and said, "You two are crazy!" His face had lost all of its colors, and he looked terrified. "What are you going to do to us?"

Crystal walked over to him and smirked. "That is for me to know and you to find out."

Eric turned to Paul. "How did they get you?"

Paul tried to say something, but all that came out was a muffled mumble with the sock in his mouth. Crystal wanted to know what he was saying, so she pulled the sock out of his mouth.

After having been tied upside down for so long, he was barely hanging on to his consciousness, but after coughing a few times, he was able to speak. "They dr*gged me," he murmured. "And then they whipped me with a belt..."

"Oh my God." Eric's body began to tremble. "They dr*gged me too...." He was terrified. He thought - If they whipped Paul, what would they have planned for me?
