Chapter 365 - Three Hundred And Sixty-Five: Beg For Mercy

"And you?" Claire turned her attention to Reina, "Just because you have a small successful enterprise, you think people are shit before you?"

"No, just some sluts who think it\'s okay to steal my hard-earned husband," Reina sassed. Most people with low self-esteem probably see people with self-confidence as pompous when in reality, they simply needed to work on their\'s.

"How dare you?!" She backhanded Reina across the face and it took everything in Niklaus not to lose the ropes and tear that woman from limb to limb had Reina not given a sign to him to stay put. Niklaus simmered inwardly, this wasn\'t how he pictured this to go and it was getting out of hand.

As if that was not enough, Claire clutched a fistful of Reina\'s hair till she winced, pulling her head back as she said, "You\'re in my mercy now, do not whine your mouth carelessly," she warned.

"Let go of that hair!" Niklaus growled at her, eyes red.

Claire wanted to defy his orders but the way Niklaus glared at her, gave her the chills and she found herself obeying.

"Why don\'t you go ahead and do whatever you want with me so I can leave. It\'s late already - my bed awaits me," Reina said nonchalantly which greatly irked her.

"It seems you don\'t get the point here," Claire decided to make it clear to her, "You\'re not leaving here untouched,"

"What do you mean?"

"Since you claimed that Niklaus can\'t come to me because you\'re married, I\'ll destroy your marriage," she revealed to her and Reina pretended to be intimidated by her threat.

"My men…" She said and as if on cue, five or six men walked into the factory with an anticipatory demeanor,

"They would take you in a fancy hotel room you booked all by yourself and the video would circulate the globe - you wouldn\'t even remember what happened until you see it yourself. Let\'s see if your husband Niklaus would be magnanimous enough to accept you back when he sees the video too since he won\'t remember this encounter too, " she cackled evilly.

Reina\'s best guess was that they were going to use an experimental drug on both of them.

"As if I would let you do that," Niklaus glared at her.

"Let\'s see then," She accepted the challenge and turned to her men, "Take her,"

One of them rushed to seize Reina as ordered but Niklaus stood in front of her protectively and to the man\'s shock, his hands were freed.

"What?!" Exclaimed the shocked man.

"Surprise?" Niklaus punched him right in the face, the man staggered back.

"H-how did you?" Claire was stunned by the whole turn of events.

"You should have made proper research before attempting to kidnap me, rookie," Reina simpered, throwing off the robes used on them. She was the daughter of a Mafia, knots like this were child\'s play to her. They should have just cemented her hands to the ground.

"Get them now!" Claire pointed at them, enraged.

"No, don\'t hurt me," Reina winced, her eyes closed, pretending to be an innocent and delicate woman as the first man tried to hit her.

Unfortunately, that slight hesitation caused the man greatly because the next he knew, a sharp blow was delivered to his head and his world darkened.

"One down -" Reina was yet to celebrate her victory when an asshole out of nowhere threw her on his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.

She rolled her eyes, why do men think all women were damsels in distress? Reina simply reached and pulled the man\'s shirt over his face, limiting his vision as she wriggled out of his grasp and rammed her knees into his stomach before giving him the finishing KO.

Both husband and wife worked together like the wheels on the bicycle, watching each other\'s back and helping out to bring down tough opponents together. And in no time, finished the men.

Claire was gripped by fear when she saw what happened, "How is this possible?"

"You!" Reina heaved. Her hands were on her waist, catching her breath from the vigorous fight, "Come here. I\'ll be merciful," she signaled her to come.

However, she didn\'t believe Reina and took off. But the interesting fact was that the couples didn\'t chase after her and Claire got to know the reason why because the entrance was blocked by people that weren\'t on her team.

Reina smirked. She had known from the very start that her people were around. As if daddy dearest would let her go to a strange country unprotected.

Tears streamed down Claire\'s face, she was between the devil and the blue sea. What had she done? She didn\'t want to die yet.

With tears in her eyes, she began to walk back to Reina - she had to plead for mercy.

However, Reina announced halfway, "Come on your knees,"

The girl was stunned

"Should I change my mind," there was a dark glint in her eyes.

She shook her head and got on her knees instantly, walking over to her like that.

"I\'m so sorry," Claire began to plead for mercy upon reaching her, "It was the devil\'s handwork," she cried.

"Oh," Reina was amused, "I didn\'t see the devil pulling your hand when you wanted to have me assaulted,"

"Ouch!" Claire winced when Reina grabbed her on the hair, in the same manner, she had done to her earlier, and started to slap her across both cheeks.

"The. Next. Time. Learn. To. Respect. An. Elder."

Claire didn\'t dare to utter a word even though her face was filled with handprints.

"And dress decently," Reina added one more slap, "Do you hear me?!" She boomed.

Claire nodded hastily, unable to speak.

"Princess, what do we do with her?" Her men asked.

"Any idea," Reina asked her husband Niklaus who had not said anything since.

"I don\'t fight with women, it\'s your war," Niklaus claimed.

But inwardly, Reina knew Niklaus gave her the right on purpose because he would likely bestow upon her a crueler punishment than the one she was about to give.

"Well…" Reina tapped her lips, thinking over it, "Give her one hundred lashes on the butt so she can be able to acknowledge an ancestor the next she sees one,"

Claire\'s eyes went wide with shock upon hearing her verdict. How would she sit after this? She began to cry and beg for mercy forgetting that Reina would have been doing the same thing if she hadn\'t been a formidable opponent.

Reina yawned, "Let\'s go home, hubby," and hooked her arm around his arm.
