Even as she prayed for her husband and her daughter's forgiveness in her mind, she didn't physically resist him—her body obeyed his words without any hesitation.
But inside all that resistance-free behaviour, there was a chaotic mess inside her head that ran wild.
'This... This is all for my family's sake... This is all for... For my family's sake!' she repeated it—tens of times as if it was some sacred mantra while clenching her hands which were resting on her thigh.
Right now, she was sitting in seiza position where she was kneeling, her ass resting on her heels, with her hands on her thigh like a slave.
She sat in that position for some minutes... all while repeating her sacred mantra as if it would solve everything even when she knew it wouldn't.
Unable to bear the silence, she finally raised her head, but the moment her eyes met Zeta's—she froze.
Zeta was standing while looking down on her, his eyes cold, his face expressionless as if this was nothing but just a worthless matter.
'W-why..?.. Why isn't he... making his move!?'
But just as she had that thought, a tiny, shameful flicker of pride kicked in.
Was... Was she so worthless that now he didn't want her?
However, that thought died the moment it surfaced, that small flicker of pride dying just as fast as it appeared—smothered by the fear.
'No... no, that's not it!... I-I... I must obey... Obey him for my husband... For my daughter... It doesn't matter what he thinks of me...!!'
With that thought, she endured the silence for a few more minutes... However, by the second, the silence started feeling intoxicating and suffocating...
"Why... Why are you silent?" she finally gathered every little bit of courage she had and asked him for his reason to stay silent, but her voice cracked in that moment.
Hearing her question, a small chuckle escaped his mouth as he tilted his head.
"What?... Do you want me to make a move on you?"
'No… no, I don't want anything! Please don't touch me…!' Ming Yue thought, panic evident in her widened eyes.
"Haha... Since you want me to make a move, well, let's fulfill your wish!" he smirked.
But Ming Yue entirely ignored everything he said. She only heard "make a move" and assumed him doing what she had been the most anxious and panicked about.
'H-here it comes—' she thought, as she tightly shut her eyes, a small streak of tear drop dripping down her cheeks.
'Forgive me... Hubby! I-I... I had no choice... It was... It was all for the sake of our family!' she braced herself for what was about to come.
"Stand up!" Zeta ordered, his head tilting with a clear, mocking smirk on his face.
And when she heard him, her body shivered slightly before she slowly stood up.
"Turn around!" he ordered again, his facial expressions the same as before.
'I-I... It's inevitable now!' small streaks of tears dripped down her cheeks again, which Zeta obviously noticed, but it only made him smirk harder.
With a hardened heart, she turned around, her back fully exposed to him.
'I'm still clothed… I'm still clothed… He can't see anything…!' she thought, repeating it like it was the next mantra after that self-assuring one she used as a shield.
"Bend!" he ordered again, which made her shiver, her fingers trembling slightly before she did it—bending her upper body, which made her ass point directly toward him.
Her robe started slipping off her shoulder, her neck and her bare upper delts getting a bit exposed.
"Kek!" With a small chuckle, Zeta started walking toward her, which did nothing but make her anxious and tremble at the same time.
She was now sure that he would undress her lower body and fuck her.
However, when he reached her, he did the complete opposite of what she thought—
PAK
A small, sharp sound echoed throughout the room as Zeta slapped her huge ass.
'EEK—!' she let out a weird sound that mostly contained shock and humiliation.
Her cheeks burned deep red, the humiliating feeling overwhelming her.
'Why am I reacting to this…? Why is my skin burning…?!' she thought, feeling a mix of rage, humiliation and most of all—confusion.
"Good... Since you're so eager to atone for your sins—"
"Even when I said nothing about it—"
"Use your mouth first!"
Right after spanking her, he spread his Qi equally into both of his legs, before using the basic movement technique, which enhanced his speed as he brought the chair that was a bit far from him within half a second, before sitting on it.
"I... I..." Ming Yue couldn't form any words, everything got stuck down her throat as she gulped down a mouthful of saliva.
She was still trembling a bit, especially around her buttocks because of the combination of fear and that slap.
"Hmm? Where did all that fake confidence go? Slave." Zeta coldly said, every bit of playfulness he was showing before disappearing in a hush, which made her legs weak, trembling a bit as small streams of tears started flowing down her cheeks.
Previously, it was just some drops, but now, it flowed down continuously like a fountain.
"Tsk, if you're going to cry, at least cry properly—scream, shout, wail."
When she heard him throw all those curses, she started repeating the same old mantra again, while wiping off the tears until her eyes went red.
And with a bit of confidence that she gained from self-assurance, she moved her trembling legs toward Zeta, who smirked seeing her in this condition.
And after a few more breaths of time, she arrived in front of him.
"Kneel!" he coldly said, which she did without any hesitation.
"From the proud, self-entitled beauty filled with nothing but arrogance, hate towards the weak… to this…" Zeta smiled, his eyes getting dangerously small while his smirk widened in a twisted way, which did nothing but scare Ming Yue even more so as she was kneeling in front of him and could see his full expression... alongside a large bulge in his pants.
