Ariana frowned, convinced that this guy was too stubborn.

She looked at the camera and questioned, “What are you getting at?"

Bennett felt satisfied and replied, “How about a striptease? You've got the body for it; it would be quite the show."

Ariana scoffed and stood up, her dazzling smile lighting up the room.

She moved closer to the drone camera, tilting her head playfully and asking, "Are you serious?"

Bennett's voice came through the device. “Of course. Come on, I'm ready. Entertain me well, and you'll earn your freedom. No more training grounds or wild beasts. If you impress me, you might even become my woman. That's a chance most can only dream of. You have this opportunity, so seize it."

Ariana, still smiling, replied, "Okay, then."

Bennett reclined in his chair, his eyes glued to the screen where Ariana offered a sweet smile. When she agreed to his request, his face turned cold.

This woman turned out to be boring, after all.

Bennett sipped his red wine and tapped his finger against the glass, feeling unimpressed. His mind drifted to what kind of beast he could send after her for entertainment.

But judging by her current condition, it seemed she wouldn't last two minutes before becoming the beast's food. That was not interesting enough for him at all.

Killing her off too quickly seemed pointless. Perhaps keeping her on edge might reveal some unexpected surprises.

With a shrug, Bennett swirled his wine and commanded, “Alright, strip. Make it interesting, especially with those hips. I love the sway.”

His words were blunt, and his face was expressionless as he watched Ariana on the screen.

He saw Ariana set down the puppy she held and begin to remove her jacket.

His grin turned mocking as he prepared to taunt her. But suddenly, Ariana's expression changed. She twisted her jacket, threw it, and yanked the drone inside through the window, smashing it to the floor.

The drone's wings broke instantly, and the screen in Bennett's room showed only the ceiling now.

In the blink of an eye, Ariana was back on screen. She furiously stomped on the surveillance camera on the drone and snapped, “You're out of your mind! You push me to the limit and still want a striptease? In your dreams!"

The loud crash of the camera accompanied her outburst. ALL that remained was the sound of crackling electricity before the camera went dark, and Bennett's screen went black. The connection had abruptly ended with one final stomp.

Ariana's switch from compliance to rage had happened swiftly. Bennett was stunned as he stared at the dark screen before him. Then, he suddenly burst into laughter.
