The Devil's Harem

Chapter 172: The vicious Veronica

Chapter – 172

“Excuse me, Umm... What now?” Alex could not believe the asshole wanted him to be a simp without any shame and hesitation.

“Oh... Don’t act all surprised. Look at your face... It looks like someone has asked to borrow some used underwear of your mom... Chill man, chill,” Brad put his hand over Alex’s shoulder and laughed. And seriously, in that very moment, Alex wanted to break every single tooth in his mouth. That laugh was doing nothing but cringing him out.

“... Look, brother,” Brad did not care what Alex was thinking, “I will be honest with you. There is not a single guy I know who is not craving to taste that delicious body of hers. But so far, no one has been able to. But there is another interesting fact you need to know.” Brad said as his voice toned down a bit.

“... Not a single one of the chicks I have laid my eyes on has ever escaped my clutches. And believe me, I don’t want to break that record of mine,” Brad whispered the last part, but soon, he was loud again, “Don’t worry, after I am done with her, you can always have a go. Believe me, my lips are sealed.”

“... And after all the hard work I have put in, you would agree that I need something to keep me going. After all, with only a week worth of shooting left, you wouldn’t want this project to end up on shelves, would you?” His tone was caring, but the meaning was simple. And the sinister smile on his face made sure even a fool won’t miss what he meant.

“Hard work? Pfftt....” It might be the bit of alcohol he had consumed, or he was really pissed, but Alex scoffed when he heard Brad talk about hard work.

.....

“... Even a donkey is doing hard work. So what? Should I make him a celebrity? Offer him a movie? And while I am at it, should I give him my anal virginity to him as well?” Alex yelled at the top of his voice, “Heck no... However hard working that donkey might be, he is going to do nothing but carry weight and become a portion of food to some weird-ass people. But nothing more than that.”

“... But that donkey is at least useful in some way. You asshole, on the other hand, is nothing but a blood-sucking parasite. And I am the mother fucker who grabbed the flying arrow and shoved it up my own ass when I fought with everyone to have you...” Alex pointed his finger right at Brad’s face, “You... You mother fucking, a blood-sucking parasite on board.” 𝙞n𝗻𝘳𝗲а𝑑.𝒄ｏｍ

“... And what? You want to make love to Veronica?” Alex stood up and yelled. Brad, on the other hand, frantically gestured for Alex to shut up, “Have you read nothing but frog and the princess in your childhood? Even kids don’t believe that shit anymore. Try saying this to a twelve-year-old. He won’t waste a minute before shitting on your face... Asshole wants a Love-making scene.” Alex pushed away Brad as he wanted to leave.

“Where do you want me to shoot that? On the battlefield? Amidst the firings? Why don’t we shove one bullet while we are at it?”

It was the second time that Alex had lashed out at someone, but unlike last time it was not in his heart anymore. After losing his cool and verbally bashing Brad right, left, and centre in front of everyone, Alex had no mood to stay in the room.

Under the astonished gazes of everyone there who heard everything, Alex got up, ready to leave.

But before he could leave, the door burst open, and Veronica rushed inside and hid behind Alex. It wasn’t like that time in the elevator when she was running away from her manager and the others. Alex could really feel her shaking. Veronica was scared.

Alex wanted to ask her what had happened, but he didn’t need to. The slightly opened door was kicked open yet again, and a bunch of dudes walked in. Every one of them but one looked like a ruffian. The one in front was about a head shorter than Alex, possibly the shortest guy in the room. Dressed in a suit with shades of blue with a black shirt beneath it, the guy arrogantly pulled off his glasses as he looked straight at Alex. Meanwhile, the ruffians behind him were getting restless. The heads were turning all over the room, looking for prey.

“Boss, there is only this girl here,” a bulky man with long spikey hair, wearing a flower pattern shirt two sizes smaller than his size, said, “Should we get the other girls from before?” the man asked, scratching his beard.

“Let them be,” the boss raised his hand, gesturing for the guy to stop, “For I am more interested in the beautiful lady in front.”

“... Beautiful lady. Why didja ran away like that? We were just getting to know one another,” the boss tilted his head to the side, trying to look behind Alex.

“... Who wants to know you, you shorty?” Veronica, despite the numbers being against her, continued to provoke the other guy, “It will only take a sneeze from my boyfriend to blow you away.”

“Oh... Is that so. Never heard of anyone in Thar who could achieve this feat. Looks like yer boyfriend is from far, far away. Why doncha have him demonstrate that for us?” Far from being angry, the shorty instead was smiling ear to ear.

“... And now that you brought it up, I am feelin’ a bit masochistic today,” The shorty pulled his hand out of the pocket and gently rubbed his thighs. The ruffians behind the guy, on the other hand, could not hold it in and burst out laughing. The room was filled with laughter, sending chills down everyone else’s spine.

Alex also turned to look back at Veronica, hearing her, wanting to know who was the guy she was talking about. But instead, he found her looking at him with a meaningful look.

‘No... No... No...’ Alex shook his head, ‘You definitely can’t be serious.’

‘Who else if not you?’ Meanwhile, Veronica nodded, trying to persuade Alex.

‘Don’t you see their numbers? And don’t forget that bull behind that shorty,’ Alex looked at Veronica in shock. He could not believe that Veronica would throw him in front of the pack of hungry wolves.

‘Who else would fight for my honour if not you? That guy Brad?’ Veronica looked helplessly towards Alex as she gestured toward Brad.

‘Wouldn’t you like that?’ Alex smirked when he saw her point at Brad.

While the two were communicating their thoughts with gestures, Veronica suddenly pushed Alex a bit and took a few steps back.

“Don’t we all know that it is only the pigs that come in hordes? The one I love is a lone wolf,” Veronica said loud enough for her voice to resonate in the room and stole glances at Brad. Brad also looked at Veronica at the exact moment and saw Veronica looking at him and had a revelation of some sort.

“... He alone is more than enough to handle the likes of you and ensure that my honour is protected from the likes of you,” Veronica issued her declaration.

‘What honour... honour... are you repeating like a princess? Is it some medieval era drama?’ Alex shook his head helplessly, ‘This isn’t going to work. Only a fool would...” But before he could even complete his thoughts, he saw someone walk toward the ruffians, inspired by the heart-wrenching plea of Veronica.

It was none other than Brad.

“No, you fool...” Alex wanted to stop Brad from walking towards his impending death, but Veronica held him from behind and covered his mouth.

“No, you won’t...” Veronica whispered in his ears. It was going perfectly as she wanted.

Held by Veronica, Alex watched Brad walk towards his own demise, ‘Don’t go, you fool.’ It was the only thing he could think of before he rolled his eyes up to look at Veronica.

‘She is Vicious.’
