UNDER HIS INFLUENCE : CHAPTER 71 – 80
CHAPTER 79 & 80
✷THE BROTEL✷
Tatiana’s scream pierced the air, her eyes went shut and breath hitched. It seemed it happened to every other person because the place turned silent.
Tatiana eyes flew wide opened when Dylan’s voice broke the silence.
“Mom!”
She raised her head only to see the girl didn’t stab her son. The lady had an unreadable expression, her eyes scrutinizing Tatiana closely.
Tatiana watch the girl released Dylan, and immediately that happened, Dylan ran towards her, Tatiana did the same.
A big wash of relief struck her as she feels her son in her arms again. She cried knowing that she almost lost him.
“Are you okay?” She asked roaming her eyes on his body.
Dylan nodded and she hugged him again.
“I’m so sorry. I’m deeply sorry my love” she whispered.
Slowly, Tatiana red eyes slowly shifted to the lady who was already caught by the guard. It seems she didn’t even try to run and just stare at her.
Leaving Dylan with Jolene, Tatiana marched fast towards the lady and delivered and hard punch on her face.
The lady’s mask fell off, she laughed as she spat out blood. Her eyes danced with amusement.
“Nice strength you have there Tatiana–” her word was cut short when Tatiana swiftly delivered another punch on the same face.
“Shit” the girl spat out blood again.
“How heartless of you holding a goddamn knife on a little innocent boy’s neck. You’re insane and I would make you regret ever touching my son” Tatiana uttered in between her gritted teeth. Her voice dripping with venom.
The lady seemed young, around the age of nineteen. She wasn’t from this country, she looked like, Spanish maybe.
Her skin paled and Tatiana noticed some scars around her neck and one on her right cheek.
She spat out blood again, it seems the punch had caused an internal bleeding inside lady’s mouth.
“This was the only way to get your attention. I wasn’t gonna hurt him. I’m not a prick like your father” the lady eyes shot up and met with Tatiana.
“You emotionally hurt him” Tatiana glared.
“He should get use to it. What? Am I the first person to threaten your son? One thing is–” the lady paused and tilted her head. “You’re just like your father. Vengeful and selfish”
Tatiana’s jaw clenched. “What do you want?”
Before the lady could respond, a voice caught their attention.
“Rosa?”
They both shifted their gaze to Jolene’s father, Rowen. He was staring at the lady with wide eyes.
“You know her?” Jolene asked him with a frown.
“Yes, very well actually. From Spain” Rowen nodded.
“Rowen, long time”
Tatiana let out an annoying scoffed. Her eyes throwing dagger at her.
“Tatiana” Rowen greeted, this would be the first time they meet ever since his return.
Of course, Tatiana knew the pain this man had caused Jolene, and since Jolene said she had forgiven him, she agreed to see him today.
“I’m sorry” Rowen apologized.
“Hm… Since Jolene forgave you. I do too. However who’s this lady who almost killed my son?” Tatiana returned her gaze to the lady who’s smirked.
“What?” Rowen eyes widened. “What did you do, Rosa?”
“Have you forgotten the woman I told you about? She thought I was crazy when I tried to talk to her at first. This was the only way to meet her. She is a celebrity, she had guards everywhere”
“I still strongly think you are crazy” Tatiana cut in.
“Tatiana, she is not like that. Rosa might act impulsive sometimes but she can’t hurt a fly” Rowen replied. Rowen faced Rosa and scolded. “You should have acted calm, Tatiana is not like that”
“Yeah, I just realized that” Rosa said sarcastically.
“Let’s talk in somewhere private” Tatiana said.

UNDER HIS INFLUENCE : CHAPTER 71 – 80
“Rosalie Torres, I spent my child hood days at the orphanage. They said my mother abandoned me in the forest, that I was almost eaten by a bear and got saved by a hunter. When I clocked seven, the same hunter came to adopt me. He taught me how to hunt, how to weave my way quietly before wild animals. I was a quick learner and I loved the man very much not until a cold stormy night… He was killed…
Mr. Perez, my fatherly figure was slaughtered before me just because of his debt. He was supposed to pay a week early, but those monster never warned or listen him. They took his life and they took me as a replacement for the debt. I was taken to the human farm. A place where women are forced into prostitution and giving birth. I was fourteen when I had my first child, a child I never saw.”
Tatiana who was sitting before her, eyes went wide. What in the world? She felt her heart ripped into two. Just how cruel.
“Every day we are forced to serve men in the brothel. Please and satisfied them. I thought I could weave my way out of the shit hole since I had training, but I was wrong. The place was heavily guarded and I made a mistake trying. Chained like an animal I was forced to sleep with three men in a day, even when I fell pregnant again.
“They stopped when I was close to labour. And when I did, I never saw what I gave birth. My children are sold out. Some of us died while giving birth, because of the trauma we face in this hellish world. We all knew there was nothing left for us, we were beaten if we disrespect. All I know was the leader of the chain was a family called.. The Wallington”
Tatiana fist tightened into a ball. Jolene on the other hand, eyes teared up and Rowen was just quiet.
“A strange girl joined us last year, she was acting weird. She was rambling on killing every single men that slept her. She was just like me, wanting to escape. I told her not to act like a fool if she want to live. That was when she mentioned you. Tatiana Wallington, she said you were different and she can save us if we find you”
Tatiana frowned slightly, was the girl someone she knew in the past? Tatiana had saved a lot of people even before meeting Nathan.
Her father liked her for her vengeful personality but hated it because it was always against him. She was like a double-edged sword.
Rossa continued. “She talks about you a lot. Crying alone while whispering your name. I never knew her but her words about you made me feel like there’s still hope. She was mounted by many men, tortured by many and yet.. she was still whispering your name”
Tatiana fell into a trance. Her heart clinched, realizing someone out there needed her help and here she was doing nothing.
She had a dream and got scared of fighting her father. Deep down, she hated herself for letting many suffer.
“What’s her name?” Tatiana asked and Rossa shook her head.
“She never mentioned it. I do call her Raven and she calls me fearless. She slowly grew hatred for you Tatiana, but I promised to find you if I ever got out cus I knew I would. My prayer seemed to be answered when a strange man took me for the night.. he was weak, his household was not heavily guarded. When he tried to sex me. I took control twisted his neck, I don’t know if he is dead.
“I escape his home and while roaming the street I met Rowen. He fed and clothed me. I told him my story and he told me his, about his daughter” Rosa spared Jolene a glance. “We got sperated when I spot the Wallington men looking for me. I didn’t want to put Rowen into trouble and left.. it took me a whole lot of shit to get into Australia. That was why I so upset to see you building fame instead of trying to help someone who was waiting for you”
As she concluded, Tatiana eyes were teary already. Her heart in sync as she heart how cruel her father was.
He was indeed a devil.

On the fourth ring, Cassius answered his phone call.
“Hello Rebel” his voice sounded a bit weak like he was just waking up.
“Hey, uhm… Sorry I woke you up” Tatiana said, her voice low.
“Hm, you sound disturb. Are you okay?” He asked.
“I should be asking you that. How’s business?” She asked. Her mind wondering whether to tell Cassius about Rosa but got a second thought on that.
“Pretty stressful. I miss you and my little man. I’ll get over with this soon and return home as fast as I can” Cassius assured.
Silence settled between them for a while, as if they were both having different thoughts running through their head.
“Cash” Tatiana broke the silence again. “Please stay safe. I miss you too and I love you”
“I love you too, Wifey. Let me know if there’s any trouble, okay?”
“Hm”
The call ended and Tatiana took a deep breath. Cassius was at it again, hiding his trouble. Her heart knew this was because of her.
The man had been fighting her war ever since they met.
On the next day, Tatiana visited Aurora with Dylan.
Aurora who was busy knitting and her eyes lit up in excitement.
“Oh my” she smiled brightly and spread her arms for Dylan.
“Grandma” Dylan rushed to her embrace.
“Awwn. I’ve missed this sweet face. Little man, that’s what Cash calls you. It suit you well” she chuckled and looked up to Tatiana.
“Hello, Mrs. Aurora–”
“You should call me mother” Aurora cut in and Tatiana’s heart swell. “What are you standing there for, aren’t you going to give me a hug?”
Tatiana chuckled and went to hug her. “Thanks” she whispered.
“I should be the one thanking. You crushed that cold heart of my son and even gave me a grand son. The best day of my life was the day I woke up from coma and met my daughter in-law and grandson”
Aurora was so sweet, no wonder Cassius loved this woman to the core. She then recalled the fact that her father had almost killed her.
“I’m sorry” Tatiana said and Aurora seemed to understand what she meant.
“Just like my son said. You’re not a Wallington but a King. Let me guess, you want me to keep Dylan safe for you, while you head out?”
Tatiana face turned paled. How did she know? What does she expect from the great Mr. King’s mother anyway?
“I’ll protect Dylan with my life. I promise you that. But should tell Cassius everything” she added and Tatiana felt assured.
“I will”
Aurora had been heavily guarded with Cassius’s men over the years. Every single details of his mother was known by Cassuis. Even Aurora have her own army.
“Are you leaving?” Dylan asked Tatiana, his eyes round adorable eyes worried.
“Not for long dear. You should get to know grandma. Jolene would check on you time to time.”
Dylan stared at her for a while before nodding. He wrapped his tiny arms around Tatiana and she kissed his head lightly.
“I’ll be back before your birthday. I promise” Tatiana whispered.

UNDER HIS INFLUENCE : CHAPTER 71 – 80
That night, Jolene stared at Jaxon’s number wondering whether to call or text him. Or maybe do none of it.
She recalled his disturbed look at the party and wished to know what was wrong with.
As if sensing her worries, Jaxon’s text came in.
~What are you thinking, cutie?~
Her brow furrowed at his strange text. What was she thinking? She sat up properly on her bed before texting back.
~Nothing, really~
~What a little liar. Your pink nightgown looks sexy on you though~
Jolene eyes widened as she looked down at her pink nightgown. How did he know? Only if he was in her room.
Her eyes snapped to her widow, and she found him leaning his back on window frame. He was wearing black shirt, pant, face mask and cap. Black seems to be his favourite colour.
Jolene stood and her lips parted, her fingers fidgeting. “How long have you been there?”
“I just got here. Were you thinking about me?” Jaxon asked, approaching her.
“Yes,” Jolene responded in a whisper.
“Me too” he held her face and crashed his lips against hers.
Jolene’s mind exploded, she missed this feeling. She immediately pulled the collar of his shirt and responded to the kiss.
Their tongue dancing in sync.
He pulled away for her to catch her breath. “I thought of coming to see you before I leave tomorrow”
Jolene’s eyes turned displeased. “What? Why?”
“I got something to do Cutie, don’t miss me too much” he grin and returned kissing her, his hand touched her body this time around.
Jolene felt different amazing waves of electricity striking her core as he traced his hand up to her thigh. Her heart raced like never before.
He suddenly stopped, his eyes shut as if trying to control himself.
“Don’t stop” Jolene blurted before she could think it through. Her cheek flushed hard.
Shit! What did she just say?!
Jaxon lip curled up, his thumb stroke her cheek. “Easy now, Cutie. We’ve got time. I’ll be back soon and statify your request”
Jolene bit her lip when the man kissed her forehead and left her room through the window.
Great, she was about to have a sleepless night thinking about him.
Tatiana was leaving for Spain the next day same with Parker and Stacy. Jolene wanted to go with her but Tatiana insisted it would be dangerous for her. Beside, Dylan needed her and she could help while staying here in Australia.
Jolene could hope everything falls back to place, even though she knew the war was going to be a tough one.

[SPAIN]
The human farm was definitely no joke just as Rosa had explained. It was heavily guarded on every branches.
But Stacy knew how brothel works. She was a girl born into the strange world. But was saved by Tatiana when things got messy with her.
Parker on the other hand was almost killed by some gangs Tatiana was after. A hard drug dealers who raped an artist Tatiana saved.
Bringing down the gang saved Parker in the process.
That was why Stacy and Parker would do anything for Tatiana. Their talents was discovered by Tatiana and they would use it to help her no matter what.
Stacy was just like Tatiana, a daughter of a famous politician, but she hated he family because of the illegal things they do.
Luckily, Stacy’s family came from Spain, and was well known in Spain. The Fernandez family was among the human trafficking ring.
And Tatiana was going to use it…
She disguised herself as a daughter of the Fernandez. She used Stacy’s older sister’s name, Salome Fernandez.
Stacy told her how her sister looked and Tatiana dressed exactly like her. Salome was known to be tall, beautiful. She have the same body frame as Tatiana.
Luckily.
Salome visits the human farm branch where Rosa came from, just to check how the women.
Parker got every information of her.
It took seven days to study Salome attitude and well being. Salome was feared in the brothel
Tatiana dye her hair red, dressed like Salome and now, she was standing before the brothel. A large building one could get lost in.
The place was like a fucking company. Very restricted.
She used the men Cassius had given her and some of Parker’s interestingly built gangs as her bodyguards.
She stepped into her act, behaving just how Salome would behave. Like a bitch!
Tatiana punched the guard face when the guard asked for her identity card. The guard curiousity faded and he quickly bow apologizing for his mistake.
“Lo siento (I’m sorry)” the guard fearful spoke, his body trembling in fear.
Good thing Salome was feared here but that doesn’t mean she should be careful.
The brothel was huge and goddamn full of policies. It was taking every nerves in Tatiana not to stare at the place in disbelief.
It was unbelievable. A disgusting place like this exist!
Thanks to Rosa good memories, she explained every details of this place. All Tatiana hoped for was that girl Rosa talked about should still be here.
She wanted to meet her badly.
Tatiana took the glass of water on the table and poured it on the female receptionist face. She learned Salome does this to her all the time to greet the receptionist.
Rosa had seen this happening several time.
Tatiana couldn’t help but get disgusted by that bitch called Salome. But what can she do? She got do act like her to get in.
“This way my Queen” the lady shuddered at the cold that seems to hit her skin. She was wearing a slutty dress, definitely one of the victims of her father.
Tatiana felt bad but didn’t show it. With her face covered, no one recognized her. Her eyes took note of the things around the place.
She felt bad not telling Cassius about all of these but promised herself to tell him once all of these was over.
Tatiana knew a few things about the mafia world. One was, one mistake can take your life.
The lady took her to where the women was kept. The teens and grown ups and kept sperately. The pregnant are also kept separately.
Those who had given birth are said to have been transferred to another branch for proper care which only takes a week.
‘Proper care my ass’ Tatiana thought when the lady mentioned some are transferred for proper care in the morning.
Tatiana blood boils at each glance of the women here. Most of here are young and they were the one who suffered the most, since men tends to choose them.
Many have swollen faces, mostly because they had tried to restrict whenever the men tried to have their way with them.
She also noticed how the shifted in fear when they spot her. They bow their head in fear and some sobbing.
The lady with her gave her a look, seemingly to wonder why Tatiana was so quiet. When Tatiana noticed this, she yelled at them.
“Why do y’all sob like shit. Be quiet!!!” When she did, most but down their lips.
Fuck! Salome is definitely a bitch.
After the routine, Tatiana heart was very close to unbearable. Her breath was ragged, she was so angry, her folded fist was beginning to whiten.
She haven’t seen the girl Rosa mentioned. She was sure it was someone she should recognize once she gets to see her but none of the women were familiar.
Rosa better not be fucking with her.
The lady with her seems to hesitate seeing her anger.
“She just gave birth” the lady blurted in face, her head bowed.
“What?” Tatiana brow furrowed.
“The last time you came, she was heavily pregnant. She gave birth three days ago and haven’t been transferred yet since you warned us never to do anything to her without your consent”
Tatiana thought for a while. There was another one? She just gave birth. The way the lady sounded was as if Salome heated the particular lady very much.
Tatiana decided to act like how Salome would do.
“Show me that bitch!” She thundered.
The lady shrink in fear. “Yes my Queen”
As they walked through the hall, Tatiana’s heart couldn’t help but raced with anticipation. Why does she feel….
Nervous??
She better be the girl Rosa was talking about. Beside, she needed to get out of here soon in order not to get caught. That would be hell.
“She is here” The lady opened and room and Tatiana slowly stepped in.
It was small room, seemingly to be closing on her. Her eyes spot the a fragile figure sitting on the floor on, resting her back on the other side of the bed.
She was clunging onto something. Her baby, cus she could hear the soft cries.
As Tatiana approached slowly, she heard the girl singing.
“Twinkle, Twinkle… Little stars”
Why? Why does the voice sounded familiar. She took another step closer.
“How I wonder what you are…”
Tatiana paused and just stared at the figure’s back, rested on the bed a few feet away from her.
“Up above that world so high…”
“Like a diamond in the sky…”
The figure stopped singing as if sensing her presence. Tatiana watched how she clunch onto her baby.
“Who are you?” The girl asked in a rasped voice. Still not looking at her.
“Turn around” Tatiana demanded, her voice calm but yet disturbed.
The girl twitched as if something struck her.
Ever so slowly, she turned her head and Tatiana’s world came crashing down on her.
Tatiana’s eyes widened, lips parted, breath ragged, head spinning and her heart skipped a beat. Her mind reeled in shock.
The air around her tensed, so tense it forced her feet to step backward.
Tatiana’s gaze locked with those brown eyes. Tears eyes escaped her eyes she remained frozen. Guilt, shock, disbelief, anger and so many emotions struck her at once.
The girl’s name dropped as a whisper from Tatiana’s trembling lips.
“Isabella”
