The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 200 - Bootlickers

Ava was taking a breath of relief seeing two lady officers enter but she frowned when they locked the door.

Anybody else who enters inside will knock on the door and enter inside with permission so what is the need to lock? Why are the subordinates of the chief of police aren't greeting and being respectful of him? But randomly sat here and there and gazed at her as though waiting for the chief to start.

Why was her heart again started to pound in fear? 'Maybe because I am still afraid of Leon Harmon.' She thought to herself calm down and decided to break the weird silence.

"Do I have to give a written complaint? She innocently asked, looking at the chief.

He smiled faintly, shaking his head, "Miss, first you have to explain to us then we will tell you the further process." 

His voice was plain but his face was failing to hide his emotions. However, Ava failed to intercept it and started to brief what happened. "I went to the Hyper Club with my friend. I was drunk so my friend had left me in the hotel before..."

A lady officer cut in scornfully, "So she is your madam pimp."

Ava turned to her without believing her ears. If Grace is a pimp and she is a call girl, why would she go to the police station to complain? Ava shook her head, "No. She isn't a pimp." She responded to the question sharply.

Another lady officer followed provokingly, "Are you saying she isn't your pimp or she isn't pimp at all? Or do you work without a pimp?"

Ava who always endured the curses tried her best to avoid being emotional but her eyes turned red. Why were they framing her as a prostitute when she is a survivor?

"She isn't a pimp at all and I am not a call girl to have any pimp. I am here to complain, why are you accusing me?" Her mild voice sounded.

A male officer shrugged, "Many fakes to get the attention of the rich. We are just finding out the truth." 

Ava: "..."

She clenched her fist deciding to endure until she wrote the complaint against Leon Harmon.

The captain asked while the chief of police went to his seat and comfortably sat to watch them, "So you are saying you not a s*x-worker but innocent."

'Innocent?' Ava knew he meant to say if she is a virgin. Even though she was untouched, that's her private matter. She couldn't understand why she had to tell them that to them. But she had to respond so she just nodded her head.

"Nancy, confirm please." The captain spoke as though it was nothing.

A lady in her mid to late thirties grabbed Ava's right arm forcefully and dragged her to the couch. Ava winced in pain because her right arm was already injured but her attention was on how they were going to confirm it.

'How did this officer grab my arm right after the words left the captain's mouth?' But her question scared her.

Nancy, named officer, was too rough on Ava without giving her a chance to escape and pushed her on the couch. Ava fell on her face but she quickly reacted by rolling around face them.

Nancy's hand reached for Ava's skirt hem which Ava noticed in yelled. "Are you out of your mind?" As she moved away without letting her lift her skirt.

Ava was breathing heavily and she was sure those were the dogs who lick the boot of Leon Harmon. She stood up and announced showing herself as strong, "I am not complaining." 

And walked towards the door of the room to exit silently praying they shouldn't stop her. She wanted to leave from there, she will think of other problems later.

Nevertheless, her prayers weren't accepted, and the lazy looking officer leaned on the door blocking her path. 

Ava realized entering the police station was the worst decision of her life. There were no protectors but the sinners who do the evil instead of helping. She wanted to ask them to let her go or maybe order him to move but didn't get the chance.

The lazy looking officer sighed loudly and Ava heard chuckles behind her. She couldn't believe those females were in this together and were also ready to strip her in front of those men.

This isn't how they confirm if a girl is untouched, they take them to the doctor but the thought of the doctor, another human being touching her also brought the fear. How could she expect that doctor to be faithful but not wicked like them?

The lazy looking officer spoke, "Let me accept you ended up in President Harmon's suite by mistake, why do you think he will leave his beautiful loving wife and sleep with you?"

'President Harmon's suite?' She had only told that name once to the captain and they were already sure she ended up in his suite. Why can't it be the other way around and he barged in her room?

Ava realizes they want to trouble her but not help. However, she might answer their questions, they will call her girl who sells her body for money or attention seeker of big fish. By judging the situation, Ava knew they would state her as a wanton who went to seduce Leon Harmon.

"I won't complain, let me go." Her faint voice was a sound of pleading. She was alone there and she didn't have a chance to escape which she knew well. Scolding or hitting them would only make things worse and they could easily kick her behind the bars with false charges.

Whatever she has in the near future, she knows there isn't a tiny bit of good left for her. She could already imagine herself lying on the ground like waste wishing for nothing but death.

All laughed at her mockingly in the office room and the lazily standing officer added after a few seconds, "You should have thought of it before stepping here."

Another male voice sounded behind her, "And now it's too late."

Ava who had her head low felt her eyes stung severely before tears started to flow. 

Why was she stuck in here? Why is she again suffering even worse as soon as she returned to the country? Why did she return? When she had just decided to be strong and leave everything behind, why did her life take the worst path she could ever be on? 

How did she assume she will have a better life just because she started a business after studying abroad? Pain, lonesome, tears, dark corner of the room, curses are only fated to her.
