"So tell me about yourself Alexis," Dr Erica Stevens said.
Lexi looked at Lee who nodded her head giving her the go ahead.
"What's there to tell. I'm a business woman. I hate to be controlled maybe it's because of my line of work. Being the owner of a shipping conglomerate in the souther region of my continent, owning several businesses in my home land and other countries that take care of the poor etcetera, etcetera," she said.

The doctor smirked looking at her.
"Any family?"
"I have a younger brother. He helps with the business. He is my only family," she said.
"Interesting," She said jotting something down.  "May I ask who Mr King is to you?" She said crossing her legs in the process.
"He is the person who I feel comfortable and safe around despite the fact that he wants to fuck me," she said bluntly making Lee look at her with a smirk.
Erica smiled noting something down.

"Mr King you seem like you have something to say," Erica stated looking at Leroy.
"Well I just wanted to clarify something love," he said looking at her his voice turning an octave deeper his accent becoming more pronounced as he held out his hand watching as she placed her small palm in his.
"I will only f**k you when you misbehave even though I have a feeling I will also get punished. But what I want to do to you is to make love to you such that you forget what that idiot did to you. I will worship every inch of your body with my tongue and hands until you beg for that which is between my legs. I will have you begging all night love before I make love to you thoroughly. Despite the fact that I can have any woman I want my mind is already made up that you are the one who will screw me till death do us part," he said whispering the last part for her ears alone as they looked at each other.

"The idiot he is speaking of is the man who kidnapped me a few weeks back," she said her voice wavering as she recalled the events.
She shivered folding her arms as goosebumps appeared on her skin.
"Are you feeling cold?" Lee asked her in concern as she shook her head no whilst he moved closer to her putting his arms around her.
At first she stiffened in his arms before relaxing.

"Would you like to tell me what happened," Erica said in a softer tone as Lexi recounted a part of what happened.

—————

"I'm going to enjoy your ass first," he said as he grabbed ahold of her.
Her heart rate increased once she saw she was cornered. Grabbing ahold of her he pinned her onto the bed as he removed his robe.
"Maximo if you do this I swear I will castrate you myself," she whispered.
"You took my money. You made me a laughing stock amongst my fellow comrades," he growled into her ear as his hands roughly handled her.

She felt his shaft laying on her cheeks as he laughed in triumph as he groped her enjoying the fight she put up.
"You think you are so powerful. I will show you power," he said as he shoved his tip into her ass making tears run down her cheeks at the intrusion.

"This is power," he said shoving his full length into her as she made no sound in shock and pain.
Never in her life had she been violated. And this man had the nerve to do such. He seemed to be enjoying himself as he violated her over and over until she passed out from the pain.
She woke up to the sting of a belt as Maximo stood over.
"What  should I enjoy next. Your c*nt or mouth," he smirked as he moved towards her.
"You are going to regret this," she spat as he dangled chains in his hands.
"I guess beating you up until you can't talk back at me will suffice," he said backhanding her as her head turned with the force.
She could taste the blood in her mouth as she turned to look at him. A smile graced her face as she stood to look at him as he looked at her in confusion.
"Do your worst Maximo but you are a dead man," she said laughing out loud as she threw her head back. In frustration he turned on his heel walking out of the room.

She lay in the dark but was wide awake. The door was unlocked as a man entered the room.
"I'm going to have you crying b**ch," she heard as the man approached the bed.
He unzipped his pants after undoing his belt buckle just as another man entered the room.

—————-

"Alexis," Erica called out her name once she went silent watching her trying to control her breathing.

"Let go of me," she whispered as Lee looked at her. "Let go of me!" She yelled shaking his hold as she moved away from him.
"Air," she breathed moving towards the direction of the window but failing to reach the window.

Sinking onto their knees she took deep breaths her hands gripping the carpet beneath her as she tried to get some air.
"Sweetheart," Lee whispered kneeling before her.
"I can't," she said tears running down her cheeks.
"Look at me baby," he said in a firm voice cupping her cheeks. "Breathe in. Now out," he instructed her as she gripped his forearms for support and she did as instructed.
"What did they do?" He asked her his eyes clouded with anger already picturing what he would do to anyone who dared hurt her.
"They violated me such that Maximo wouldn't know. They f**ked my ass and mouth. I couldn't breath each time," she cried as he pulled her into his arms.

"Alexis," Erica said.
"That's enough Erica," Lee spat coldly as he carried Lexi out of the office.
Sasha held the door open frowning seeing the broken state of his boss. She looked at the man with a look that told him she was okay as he gave a slight nod of acknowledgement.
"Rest," he murmured as she rested her head on his shoulder as he carried her to the car.

She woke up in her bed later in the afternoon recalling what had happened earlier in the day.
"Sasha!" She called out knowing he would be outside her door.
"Yes ma'am," he asked as she weakly stood swaying before he caught her.
A maid walked in holding a tray of food.
"Mr King said I should serve you lunch," she said.
"Thank you," she said moving towards the dining table.
"Sacha, have you heard from Alex?" She asked concerned. She knew he felt guilty over what had happened the last time he saw her.
"He called an hour ago to check on you but you were resting ma'am," he said. "He should call within the next hour," he said looking at his watch.
"Have you eaten?" She said acknowledging the information.
"Yes ma'am," he said with a smile.
"Thank you for staying with me Sasha," she said looking at her plate of food.
Sasha looked at her.
"It is my pleasure Miss Romani," he said standing up as she stood having not touched her food.

"Let me get some rest," she said moving towards the bed and slipping underneath the covers.

—————

"Why hasn't she eaten!" She heard his voice thunder in the house. "I will fire you all! Get me a plate of food. Now!" He growled just as her door swung open revealing Lee.
"Get up!" He growled. "Why haven't you eaten?" He spat looking at her.
"I wasn't hungry," she said in a flat tone looking away from him.
"I will take you over my knee Alexis. Don't try me!" He spat undoing his shirt buttons.
"Get the f**k out of that bed. By the time I come back you better be eating," he said giving her a murderous look.
"Like hell I will," she spat as he took violent steps toward her. "I'm going to force feed you if that's what it takes," he whispered before turning on his heel. "Stubborn woman," he muttered to himself just as Lance stopped by the door with a smirk.

"Wipe that smirk off your face brother," his brother growled as he made his way to change.
"How can a lovely lady like you be causing havoc in this large house," Lance asked making her laugh.
"I'm not causing any trouble. You brother is the one acting grumpy," she said with a smile just as Lance leaned towards her taking her hand and kissing it.
"I heard that!" They both heard making them chuckle.
"You are good for him. He has actually been talking more than he does.  Even though he is beating everyone black and blue," Lance said regrettably.
"What do you mean?" Lexi asked with a frown.
"Let's just say if you cross him in this state you either die or have something broken," Lance said worriedly.
"I shall have a word with him," she whispered just as some food was wheeled in.
Taking the plate of pasta she slowly ate feeling weak just as Lee walked in. He watched her slowly taking the forkful of pasta before pulling her up and making her sit on his lap taking over her plate.
"I can eat by myself," she said looking at him in surprise having not expected this.
"Baby," he said in a deep voice that had her opening her mouth as he fed her.
Watching their interaction Lance smiled seeing his brother actually happy and content unlike when he was with Cassandra. Taking the fork from him she fed him some pasta.
"I shall be at the bar," Lance said before leaving them.
"You have some sauce on your lips," she whispered.
"Don't you want a taste," he said with a twinkle in his eyes as she rolled her eyes handing him a napkin.  "I'm sorry for yelling at you," he whispered stroking her cheek just as she took his hand in hers.
Looking at the bruises he sported she brought his hand to her lips kissing his knuckles as he looked at her clearly surprised.
"Why have you been fighting?" She asked him as he looked away not liking being questioned but he knew he couldn't ignore this woman.
"I should have protected you better that night. He shouldn't have taken you. He shouldn't have touched you in his vile manner," he said as she felt his body coil up in anger. Resting her hand on his chest she rested her forehead against him.
"No more fighting," she said looking into his eyes as she moved to stroke his beard covered cheek.
"I'm sorry love," he whispered looking like a little kid who had been scolded.
"I forgive you," she whispered pecking his lips
Then his forehead before she stood up.
Taking her hand she leaned into him as they walked out of the room.
Lance was already helping himself to some drinks.

"I know you don't take alcohol," he said handing her a glass. It's just grape juice with some ice. Figured it would be good for you," he said with a smile just as Erica walked into the room.

"Hi baby," Lance said with a smile taking her into his arms kissing her passionately.
"Lance," she warned seeing he would go on and on.
Lexi summed everything up and turned to look at Lee.
"Why didn't you tell me she was dating your brother?"
"They are engaged. I wasn't going to take you to a random doctor with your line of business. Erica I trust; she is like a second sister to me," he stated as she nodded her head in understanding.
"Listen to me love lets make a deal," he said taking her glass placing it on the counter.
Pulling her closer to him he wrapped his arms around her as she heard the steady beat of his heart.

"I can boss you around but so can you," he said as she looked up at him "but the rest of the world will be beneath our feet for I am a King after all and I intend to make you my Queen," he said looking into her eyes.

"And if I don't want to be your queen?" She asked seeing the flash of anger and disappointment in his eyes.
He shook his head no.
"You can't deny that there is something between us. Something good and untouchable," he said as his hand rested on her waist.

"I will give this us a try but the best you get are my lips," she whispered as he smiled a genuine smile. "One more thing," she said.
"What is that?" He said turning her towards the counter before lifting her up and placing her on the counter as she rested her hands on his shoulders when he stepped between her legs.
"You need to talk to Erica about your anger issues," she said as he looked down in embarrassment.
"Okay deal. We can do that when we go to her office," he said as she pulled him in for a hug giving his cheek a peck before moving to his lips as he pulled her closer to his.
