An Understated Dominance Novel (Dahlia & Dustin) by Marina Vittori updated 2025-26 - An Understated Dominance Chapter 1950

An Understated Dominance Chapter 1950 -The weather was very cold at night, and the cold wind blew so hard that anyone felt hurt.

During the day, it became extremely hot, like being roasted on a fire.

Crack an egg on the rocks, and it’ll be cooked in a minute.

Most people simply cannot stand this extreme environment of alternating hot and cold conditions. Even if sufficient supplies are prepared, they can barely meet their survival needs. The real test is a person’s willpower and the body’s ability to withstand stress.

Dustin, Grace, and others followed the map drawn by Ryan and moved forward at a constant speed.

From dusk to dawn, from dawn to dusk.

Due to the large number of people, the team did not move very fast. Fortunately, because Grace was well prepared and the people she led this time were elites, even if they encountered some minor troubles, they could be solved quickly.

At night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

Grace commanded the team, selected a suitable location, and began to set up camp.

After traveling for so long, everyone was already exhausted, both physically and mentally. They need a good rest tonight to regain their strength.

After the tent was pitched, Grace first ordered the chef to start cooking.

Two top chefs, plus a dozen back-of-house chefs, quickly started to get busy.

More than a hundred people were also eager to see through it.

Although the two-day trip to the desert was hard, it was so refreshing to be able to eat a delicious meal and drink a few sips of wine when they were tired.

In a big tent.

After Dustin, Grace, and Garrett had had enough wine and food, they sat around and began to discuss follow-up matters.

Because of the cold weather, a bonfire was lit in the tent.

“Ms. Linsor, our process has been very smooth so far.”

“If nothing else happens, we will probably reach the edge of the oasis tomorrow afternoon.”

“But it’s worth mentioning that sandstorms are common there, so we still have to be more careful.”

Garrett pointed to the map on the table and briefly explained the situation.

“Well, I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Wilder. You can go and rest first.” Grace nodded as a response.

“Ms. Linsor, good night.”

Garrett nodded slightly, then glanced at Dustin, who stayed in the tent. Although he was unwilling to do so, he could only say goodbye and leave.

“Dustin, you can sleep here tonight; the floor has been prepared for you.” Grace said it suddenly while drinking tea.

“Ah?” Dustin was startled. “Isn’t it appropriate for a man and a woman to live together in the same room?”

“What’s inappropriate? I won’t eat you.” Grace rolled her eyes. “Besides, you are my personal bodyguard, so of course you have to protect me at all times. I am a weak woman; what if I encounter danger at night?”

“Weak woman?” Dustin’s mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a moment.

Although Grace looked weak, she was actually a female master, and she was also proficient in various magic arts.

Not to mention ordinary warriors; even a master-level powerhouse like Sandscale Aidan Ridge was probably no match for him.

“Okay, don’t worry about it; go to bed quickly; we have to get up early tomorrow.”

Without waiting for Dustin to respond, Grace took off her coat, revealing her graceful figure, then quickly shrank into her sleeping bag and began to close her eyes to rest.

Dustin had no choice but to make do with it for one night.
