Hidden and Almighty: The God Of War’s Final Days

Chapter 2

Yaaaaaa!”

The loud scream jolted Dustin off the bed. He squinted hard, rubbing his face as he sat up in a starfish sprawl.

When his eyes finally focused, he saw the lady beside him, wrapped tightly in the bedsheets like she was trying to shield herself from the world.

“What the fuck happened here!?” the lady kept screaming.

“Uhn… What happened? You don't remember?” Dustin asked, still half-confused and trying to steady his breath. “You were wild last night”.

“Uhn?. Wh… why are you only in your boxers?” she panicked, checking her body, then screamed even louder when she realized she was wet under.

“Oh no… what have you done to me? You did this to me!” The lady, named Serena Earnshaw, wouldn't stop screaming.

“Hey, chill. You were enjoying it last night. Why are you freaking out now?” Dustin said, raising his palms. His calm tone only enraged her more. She slapped him across the face.

Smack.

“You… Do you know the gravity of what you’ve done? You came to my room and took advantage of me!”

“Calm down, that is not what happened. You are in my room right now. You walked in here yourself, stripped naked, and begged me to fuck you,” Dustin said, walking her through the details she kept ignoring.

“Oh no… that’s impossible! Stop lying!” She looked around and finally noticed this wasn’t her room, yet she still didn’t want to accept it. “You knew I was drunk and you carried me here so you could have your way!”

Dustin sighed and brushed his hair back with his hand. “Hey listen... You can’t just accuse me. You even rode me.”

“Liar, I know—” She stopped. Her eyes slowly widened. Pieces of last night rushed into her memory. She bit her lips, trembling.

“Fuck… fuck. This shouldn’t have happened. You should have known I was drunk. You still took advantage of me,” she argued further.

Just then, more memories returned. She had met with Ferdinand Collins, heir to a competing corporation, hoping to strike a partnership.

But Ferdinand had ulterior motives. He had spiked her drink with Yohimbine– an enhancement drug that made her libido spike uncontrollably.

She caught him trying to get too close and immediately escaped. Disoriented, she rushed toward her lounge but entered the wrong room and the drug kicked in even harder.

She was the one who took advantage of the guy in front of her.

“Oh no… I really…” her voice cracked.

Dustin leaned forward. “So you remember now.”

She lifted her head, still fuming. “Shut up. You are still at fault. How could you have sex with a stranger? Now you had it on. Oh my God!”

Dustin exhaled. He did feel guilty, someone being under the influence of alcohol didn’t make it right to just have sex with them. But still, she had practically attacked him and dragged him into it.

“Okay, I am sorry. What can I do to make up for this?” he asked.

She scoffed loudly, throwing her hands. “Make up? How can you? Do you even know who I am? You’re still lucky I haven’t called someone to kill you. Do you know what this will do to my reputation if this gets out?”

“So what you want is for me to die?” Dustin asked flatly.

She looked at his clothes on the floor, then the cheap-looking room. She concluded instantly that he wasn’t even wealthy. That made her angrier. “Yes, fuck, yeah—die! Please die!”

“Sure then. Just give me today. I have some things to do first. After that, I will grant your wish,” Dustin said calmly. He was dying anyway

Serena stared at him in shock. “Don’t try to bluff. Let me just calm down and think of how to take care of this.”

Dustin didn’t understand why she was making such a big deal out of it. But he stayed silent.

Her phone buzzed. It was her best friend, Lizzy. Serena opened it and saw a photo with a message:

“I managed to get the man your father is contracting you with… Sapphire, you have to call this off. He is a village boy. And obviously a poor man.”

Serena scoffed. Her father had been stressing her enough already, trying to force her into some arranged marriage with a man from the north side. A man she had never even seen. And now this other man had just… slept with her.

She was the most beautiful woman in Winchester. Wealthy men lined up for her. They begged on their knees just to kiss her hand. Yet this poor man just fucked her while her father was setting her up with village boy. This was making her feel worthless.

“Ugh.” She angrily opened the message to check her possible future husband’s picture.

When the photo popped up, she blinked twice. Then she looked at the phone again. Then at Dustin. Then back at the phone.

Dustin was confused by what she was doing.

Serena checked again, even zoomed in this time. Her heart skipped. She screamed, “What the fuck—IS THIS YOU!?”

She shoved the phone screen at Dustin.

And yes… it was him.
