An Understated Dominance - Chapter 28

Ruth was the kind of girl who could make men fall in love with her at first sight. So, she was surprised when Dustin didn’t remember her after just one night. Did she really mean that little to him?

“Um… you look familiar. I think I’ve seen you before,” Dustin said, trying to remember.

“Yesterday, at the hospital. You treated my grandfather. Do you remember now?” Ruth said through clenched teeth.

“Oh! You’re Natasha’s sister, Roth. Right?” Dustin replied.

“Who are you calling Roth? My name is Ruth! Ruth Harmon!” she nearly shouted, frustrated. She felt like driving her car right over him. No one had ever treated her this way before. It was so rude!

“I’m sorry. Ms. Ruth, are you looking for me?” Dustin quickly changed the subject.

“Of course! Why else would I be here?” Ruth rolled her eyes. “Hurry up and get in the car. Natasha is sick and wants to see you.”

“What happened to her?” Dustin asked.

“How would I know? You’re the doctor. You should find out. Now, get in!” Ruth said, her tone harsh.

With no choice, Dustin got into the car, leaving under the envious looks of people nearby.

After half an hour, they arrived at a fancy building called Java Joys. It had a big backyard with hot springs, a garden, and a swimming pool. The entrance was guarded around the clock.

“Follow me,” Ruth said as they got out of the car. She led him quickly to a bedroom. Inside the private bathroom was Natasha, dressed in a business suit while soaking in a tub filled with ice cubes.

Her face was red, her eyes unfocused, and she struggled to breathe. As her chest moved up and down, it created ripples in the water.

“Ms. Harmon, what happened to you?” Dustin asked as he approached her, shocked to see that she wasn’t wearing anything under her suit. At first, it was hard to tell, but as the fabric soaked up the water, parts of her skin became visible. Like any man, Dustin found it hard to look away from a beautiful woman like Natasha in this state.

“Mr. Rhys, you’re here…” Natasha said with difficulty, her eyes barely open. “I feel so hot. I’m really thirsty and in pain… It’s like my chest is on fire. Please, help me figure out what’s wrong…” She extended her wrist towards him.

Dustin quickly noticed the problem. “Ms. Harmon, it looks like you’ve been drugged. And it seems to be a strong aphrodisiac.”

“Bullshit! Who would do this to my sister?” Ruth exclaimed angrily.

“What should I do now, Mr. Rhys?” Natasha asked weakly.

“Even though it’s a tricky situation, it can be treated. But we need to get you to a bed. It won’t be easy to help you here in the bathtub.” Dustin motioned for her to stand up.

Natasha nodded and tried to stand, but as soon as she stepped out of the bathtub, she slipped and fell into Dustin’s arms.

Without thinking, Dustin caught her, but his hands accidentally brushed against her chest. Natasha felt a jolt, like lightning. They both froze.

Dustin felt lost, while Natasha’s expression reflected her turmoil. Her eyelashes fluttered, and her breathing quickened. The heat inside her only intensified.

Suddenly, Natasha leaned in and tilted her head up, moving closer to him.

“Hey! What are you two doing out here in broad daylight? Aren’t you embarrassed?” Ruth shouted from the door. She quickly covered her face with her hand, but her curious eyes still peeked through her fingers, watching Dustin and the other person share a kiss.
