Chapter 70
Andre sighed and sat beside Annabelle on the couch. He started to feed her slowly.
“Andre…”
“Hmm?”
“Did you kiss me?”
“Eh…. why do you ask that?” he wiped the stains from her cheek.
“Coz I felt someone’s mouth in mine. To be honest, I still feel it. I’ve got this urge to lick my lips though, this soup’s really delicious.”
“Well, you see…”
The door was suddenly kicked open and Seline entered in her half-snake form, looking elated much to their dismay.
“S. Seline?” Andre couldn’t believe she found them so fast.
“I told you; you can’t escape from me.” she laughed.
Andre rose and stood in front of Annabelle.
“You aren’t harming her under my watch again,” he said with determination though deep inside, he was still scared he won’t be able to stop her.
“I won’t harm her. I’ll just eliminate her. Simple! Then nothing can ever separate us. We’ll live together happily forever.”
“Stop dreaming.” Andre chided.
The old lady came out of her room due to the noise.
“What’s going on here? Oh my gosh! Such a treasure. I needed snake skin and you deliver it right to my door.” she then looked at Andre and Annabelle.
“I must thank you two for this. Leave the next to me.” the old lady excitedly ran back into her room and returned with a wooden stick with a red band tied around it.
Seline looked pissed.
“This old lady wants my skin? She’s toast!” she thought and moved her tail in the old lady’s direction.
Surprisingly, she didn’t flinch. Instead, she hit Seline’s tail with it and she quickly returned to her human form. Her legs lacked the strength to stand and so she crashed to the ground.
She looked at the old lady in horror.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“You… what did you to me?”
“I told you, I like snakeskin; especially rare ones like yours. It would fetch me a good price when I offer it up for sale.
“You! Don’t you entertain such thought. You aren’t laying a finger of yours on me.” Seline barked.
She struggled to stand but couldn’t.
“Dear, don’t struggle so hard. It’s just your skin I want. Not your life. Transform!” she commanded and Seline felt a compelling pressure that made her obey. Her legs transformed to a snake’s tail.
She glared daggers at the stupefied two by the side.
“Don’t think you’re free.” she spat.
“You two shouldn’t worry. She’s in good hands.” the old lady reassured with a chuckle.
“Your skin’s really high quality.” she praised a pissed Seline.
Andre sat back on the chair with a sigh and watched the lady (whose name was Zara Cowells) hit Seline’s back with the stick. She couldn’t even raise her body anymore other than grit her teeth.
5 minutes later.
Andre and Annabelle couldn’t watch anymore. Seline had been gagged and was practically weeping. Her whole body trembled as Zara pulled off her skin. All that was left was a bloody mess.
Seline’s long nails had created marks on the floor. She hated being helpless for once. Who was this woman and why was she so strong? Seline thought.
“Transform!” Zara commanded and her tail started shortening before splitting in two and turning into legs. The skin on her legs was no longer present. It was the inner layer of her skin that could be seen.
“You should go recuperate in the water now before I decide to roast you. 1… 2..”
Seline felt the sudden energy and rose, despite the pain.
She looked in the direction of the two who had been watching her all this time.
“You want to die?” Andre asked with a raised eyebrow.
Seline removed the dirty cloth used to gag her mouth earlier.
“Just you wait,” she swore before turning to leave.
Andre rose and thanked Zara for saving them. Though he was curious who and what she was, he knew not to overstep his boundaries.
“Just clean up the floor and then lock the door. I’m gonna be really bisy soon,” she said and returned to her room with the cane and snake skin in hand.
Andre looked at his companion and smiled.
“We are safe. We’re finally safe, Annie,” he said joyfully.
“Yes. We are lucky to have come across her.”
Annabelle commented. Her voice was hoarse anymore.
Andre headed to the backyard to get the cleaning tools ready.

Grey heaven suites.
VIP room 309.
Nelson kicked open the window of the specific room, destroying it ( the window) in the process.
He jumped in and headed to the bathroom. Aarti was weeping as her twin brother whipped her.
He looked excited.
“I can’t wait to f*ck you, sis. I swear you’d clasp your legs around my waist and want me to do you deeper in that c*nt of yours. Hahaha!” he laughed as he hit her.
Nelson kicked the door and it fell down. This started the siblings but Aarti soon relaxed when she saw who it was.
Her boss! Her boss was here to save her. Had he felt her pain that’s why he rushed here?
She became ecstatic inside!
Mohan turned to look at Nelson, looking unhappy.
“Hey, can’t you mind your own business? Get lost!” he barked.
Nelson saw the striking resemblance between Aarti and this unfamiliar man.
“He’s your twin?” Nelson asked and Aarti nodded her head with some effort.
“Good. Very good!” Nelson said with a smile.
Can you leave? Besides, how did you get in here?” Mohan barked.
“You are just a good-looking man with no brains. I sell brains. Wanna buy?”
“Get lost before I call the security.”
“Oh?” Nelson raised an eyebrow. “Can those…” one his eyes turned red and he continued in a deeper voice: “Can those pathetic humans stop me?”
