She had been spanked!!

" Aahh... where're you taking me, put me down... Help!! "

Zoey shrieked creating a big fuss on his shoulders. She was vigorously struggling with her legs kicking and hitting his firm back with her hands ordering to be let down.

Smack!

Smack!

" I'll throw you on the floor if you don't stop throwing a tantrum. "

Zoey " ... "

She suddenly suffered from a brain crash in a sudden.

She had been spanked.

The man had just spanked her. The audacity!!!

Her whole body froze in the air as her struggling halted.

To cease her from creating a fuss, Ethan gave her perky butt that was sticking on air under her tight shorts, two good spanks.

And it pretty well worked. She was lying half dead on his shoulders.

Zoey felt as if her heart had been bitten ruthlessly by a cold viper as her face went pale. Not only was the pain stinging, she felt so humiliated.

It was so embarrassing that she wished the floor would suddenly split and swallow her whole.

Gosh, what happens to her painstakingly built image?

How was she supposed to face anyone again? She had completely lost her face. And reason to live. Would it be too late to quit schooling?

The man in question disappeared from the exit without losing his composure.

The whole room which had been deathly quiet suddenly erupted into an uproar.

Gasps, screams and whistles assaulted everyone's ears.

" Whoah... what was that? What has just happened?! "

" I'm I dreaming, quickly pinch me. My prince charming was so cool!! "

" OMG did he just spank her? He looked so sexy, I want that too... "

" Who's that girl, damn she's so lucky. "

" Don't you guys know her? Zoey Tanner from performing arts class. She's Serena's best friend, the YouTuber who hosts a food and travel show. "

" Are they dating? What about Sophie?"

" Oh please, who cares about that spoilt peacock of a princess. As for me I'm rooting for these two. A hot guy and a cute girl, perfect match. " Someone sighed starry-eyed.

In between the excited crowd, a figure's dark gaze followed the duo with a heavy heart as they left.

Few minutes later in a private locker room two people, one seated like an emperor giving out orders to his subjects, the other one standing, both were engaging in a glaring contest.

The female with a flushed face had a piercing glare full of fury while the seated guy adorned his usual playful smirk on his face.

" Just because you guys are rich you think you can order me around? Well that's not going to happen I'm afraid. "

Zoey shook her head, stubbornness written all over her face. She was determined not to relent or bow down to someone just because she owed him a couple of dollars.

' Tks, who does he think he is? '

" For the last time get me a clean towel and wipe my face or else... "

Ethan uttered in a deep low voice. His lips were curled up mysteriously leaving Zoey unsure whether he was smiling or not. One thing for sure, he was planning something evil.

With her temper rising, Zoey raised her chin and asked, " or else? What will you do? Get me arrested? "

Ethan chuckled observing her smug face. Why was he suddenly more and more looking forward to teasing this little thing? He was not sure.

Her palm size face was red probably due to anger. The corner of his lips curled watching the smug expression on her face which resembled a little stubborn kitten.

She looked cute that he really badly wanted to hug her. She was so small and looked so innocent. He felt like squeezing her in his arms.

He gulped and his breath heightened as his dark eyes continued to scan the girl standing in front of him.

He had seen many women not only very beautiful but also with stunning figures, many who threw themselves at his feet.

Zoey wasn't the prettiest but she was attractive In her own way, which he couldn't pinpoint.

Her beautiful eyebrows and eyes seemed to exude a natural wildness and arrogance yet those same jade like eyes were naturally beautiful and clear. Her waist was tiny while her slender and fair legs were somewhat distracting.

" I'll kiss you. "
