Chapter Four.
Allysa's POVIt was a sight to behold. Wearing a plain white shirt and black pants, he dominated my eyes. I am not one for an eye candy but that man just screams for attention. I have never dated guys before nor did I entertain one, it was all due to my busy schedule or because of my brazen personality. I was too bold for them to handle, arrogant and shameless as they put it.My word appears arrogant to them, I find it difficult to sugar-coat my words. I don't them to misunderstand and wait like a fool, I don't want them to waste their time, and mine. In the business world, time is gold, essential if you want to climb higher.But I have never said that I was not interested in dating, so how come I would let an opportunity like this down the drain? This opportunity is hard to come by. I won't waste it, rather than sulking here and just witnessing others enjoy themselves, I would rather entertain myself."Heh." I chuckled as I swirled my drink.Now that I think about it, maybe my father was kind of right about it all along. I'm very frank with my ideas, impulsive in my decision, and shameless to boldly do things. My heart, mind, and mouth don't have filters. I never back down on the things I said or think, once I set my mind into motion, I will never stop until I get a satisfying result."Oh? Did someone get your attention?" A curious voice came out of nowhere. My head turn over to look at Nero who was grinning from ear to ear as he was wiping some glasses."What the... How long did you see me stalking that guy?" I asked in surprise and disbelief. Even though I am dizzy, I am not drunk enough to be oblivious to my surroundings. I can always sense someone's gaze on me.Well, it was understandable. My attention was focused on someone else.Nero chuckled as he continue to wipe the dry glass. "Are you interested in him? You should hit him up now!" he suddenly encourages.I rolled my eyes at him. "Shut up, I know. I'm thinking about what should I do." I replied in a flat voice. He just shrugged his shoulders. "You should make your move now, a lot of predators are eyeing your prey," he said in a playful voice while wiggling his eyebrows.Oh my gosh. I hate his pretty face, no wonder this bar is very popular even though it isn't widely known. They do have dashing employees."Ugh. Aren't you, bartenders, supposed to be quiet and tranquil?" I criticized as I drank my drink. Nero just laughed."You stereotype so much Alyssa! And that would be boring! That's no fun, chatting and gossiping is the reason why I become a bartender. I already have cold, dull, and boring friends, pity me." he monologued as he eyed Leo, who was serving drinks with a bored face and languid demeanor.I chuckled at his statement. It was interesting to watch Leo serve with a frown on his face every time girls block his way."Then what should I do?" I asked randomly as my eyes traveled back toward the person. It was then, Nero's eyes glint into something I cannot put words on."You just need to grab your prey straight toward its neck!" he exclaimed with excitement. "Lower their defense and caught them off guard!"I stared at him agape.What the heck. Why does he always animals as a reference in his advice? Such a unique way of giving examples.I just ignored him and went back to observing the man. Only to realize that he is now gone from his previous location and was now walking towards the bar counter.My heart almost jumped out of my ribcage. Good posture, domineering stance, jet-black hair, and deep black eyes.Oh my gosh! He looks hot and handsome. I felt a rush of blood climb to my cheeks, I turn around and grab my drink, and gulped it in one go to calm myself. I heard Nero chuckle and walk away to serve another drink to the other side. Just as he left, the bar stool beside me was being dragged.It felt like I was back in my high school days, fangirling over some bands and groups. This is kinda embarrassing, I am an adult now. I shouldn't be swayed too much.Breathing in, I gradually calmed my heart and head.Sigh.It is hard to stay calm when a handsome and dashing person is sitting right beside me. I was about to ask Nero for another drink when someone suddenly warps their arm towards my shoulder.I stiffen on my sit as a strong smell of alcohol invaded my nose. I look up to see a drunk man looking at me with lustful eyes.What the fuck? Who is this creepy man?"What the hell? Take off your arm." I commanded as I tried to slap his arm away from me but his grip tighten around me. I am now very uncomfortable with this development.The man chuckled in his drunken state. His breath stinks like rotten apples, and I have to move away from him."No need to pretend little girl, I know you have been watching me for a long time now. I like feisty women, why don't we hang out together?" he said with absurd confidence as he wiggled his eyebrows, which made him look creepy and like a pervert. Nothing like Nero.Speaking of Nero, he was on the other side of the counter serving drinks. He must not saw us because we are at the very corner of the bar counter, dark and isn't too visible to others.And what the hell is this man saying? Me looking at him? Is he delusional?I pushed him away, it was so strong that he was pushed back and swayed before he stumbled and fell. He looks up with anger in his eyes and gritted his teeth. "You bitch!" he shouted in anger. I look down at him, still sitting on my chair."Shut up! And what the hell are you talking about!? Me, staring at you!? Please don't give me something like crap." I said with disgust. This pervert is such an idiot, is he stupid? He is so full of himself.The man stood up as he walk angrily toward me. "You liar! I saw you staring at me! Inviting and seducing with your pretty face! And now you are rejecting me! You bitch!" he shouted as his mad eyes bore at me.He looks drunk and crazy. Before I could say something a cold baritone voice echoed."Shut up fucker."I stiffen on my seat and look over my should just to see a pair of cold black eyes looking at us.A gasp escaped from my lips when I heard his voice. I was relieved and I feel much safer than before. But contrary to feelings, the pervert was driven mad. "Who the fuck are you to meddle with our problem! You want a piece of me huh!?" he said with madness as his attention slip away from me and walk towards the raven hair guy. I was suddenly nervous about what might happen. I am afraid that a fight might break out! We can't let that happen! Fighting inside a bar is dangerous, and I don't want this good man to be dragged into my affair. My conscience would not let me sleep if something bad happens to him because of me. "Wait—" I shouted as I tried to stop the man but I was completely cut off when the madman raised his right arm and made his hand curled into a fist. I gasped when the pervert man made a punching action. Leaning backward and raising his hand to ear level, push it forward and swing it. "Oh my gosh no!" I screamed in horror. Smash! Plop. A soft sound echoed, I was v
They say that if you want to catch your prey, you must not only put the bait. You also need to catch them off guard but must be also wary of the other lurking predators.In the wild, never assume you’re the only one hunting. There’s more a lot of hunters than prey.“Hi, there! Can you grant this miserable woman who’s never been in a relationship, a favor?” Allysa asked pretty boldly, cheeks flushed red due to alcohol.The girls around him paused and straight look up at the new woman. Their eyes scanned her whole frame as if they were some re-tribunal judges, here to pass down judgment.Women.One of the most amazing and sympathetic living beings lives in society.Ah yes, besides that title they are also the nastiest creature on earth.They will not back down on a challenge, especially on a delicious prey sitting right next to them. If it comes to the things they want, they would tear the limbs and cut them out. Leaving no other hunter alive to pry on her prey.They will do anything, e
Randall’s eye were wide open as he tried to process everything. His gaze landed on the beautiful woman long think lashes, as her eyes were closed. Her hair was dark yet against the light that was shining from a small disco bar, it looked like there were stars twinkling within the strands.She was indeed pretty, and bold. Randall just stood there like a statue for moment before the woman’s eye slowly opened. Her light eyes were looking straight into Randall’s jet-black eyes and for some reason, it sent small thunders down his spine; and when he trailed up and down her body subtly, not that she was doing that too, he tried his best not to stare at where her fitted jean was hugging her thighs.There lips were still connected, both were not pulling apart and staring to each others eyes. Randall was having a headache and Allysa’s heart was pounding loudly.Allysa move pulled back and give the man a sly grin. She sniffed at the lapel of Randall’s dress shirt as she let out a small giggle, “
Randall lean forward before picking a kiss on the intoxicated Allysa. Which, she returns as a giggle and steals a longer kiss, tongue twisting and fighting for dominance. When both of them pulled away, a string of saliva was shared.The raven-haired man scooped her by the waist. The light-headed Allysa instinctively hooked her legs and tightened her hug to prevent falling as Randall stood up. With a little giggle, she buried her face toward the man’s neck, inhaling his scent.Randall carried her effortlessly from the place they were sited and walked past through the dance floor. There were shared whispers of jealousy and curiosity as they passed by the dance floor which made Randall kind of irritated. He doesn’t want their privacy to be pried on, which is why he looks around to look for the nearest exit.Nero, who was chatting fairly with his customer felt saw a familiar figure in the background. On the dance floor, a raven-hair man was twisting his head, wanting to get away from the
Warm, I felt a little hot on my right cheek and bright light hitting my right eye.I woke up with a massive headache.Dang, it hurts. Like it was hit by a baseball bat for a hundred times.I held my head and pulled my body to sit up from the bed. I tried to rub my eyes with my free hand and felt constricted by my clothes. I was confused about why since I normally wear a shirt and shorts at home. I slowly opened my eyes and it took me a while to adjust to my surroundings. I blink for many times, trying to comprehend where I am.My eyes widen like an owl when I noticed it was different from my room.When the realization sank in that this wasn’t my room by all mean - floor to ceiling windows, carpeted floors and a king-sized bed; I panicked and immediately looked at myself.I felt like a needle was pulled out of me since I am still wearing my own clothes.Wait what!?But I thought it would be my time to experience something like that!I then quickly looked over to the other side of the
He extended his left hand and offer it to me. “Care to join me for breakfast, Miss Allysa?” I could help myself but be mesmerized. The plan to get out of here in peace seems to take a huge turn. I have been caught red-handed and there’s really no escaping now. I really could not do much though even if I wasn’t caught, like could I open the elevator when it needs a fingerprint? I’m pretty sure it is not my fingerprint whose needed.This is why I hate modern technology sometimes, they make everything so complicated yet convenient for everyone. This must be the start of our love-hate relationship.I really have no choice but to rethink my escape plan. Plus, the stranger already disappeared into the kitchen without waiting for my answer. I could not help but knock my head lightly because I could not remember what I did to him to take responsibility for something. I hesitantly followed Randall after a few minutes of self-loathing.When I walk towards the kitchen, I saw his well-built body
“You don’t need to worry so much. I would not take advantage nor ask for something impossible and difficult. Just take me out on a date tomorrow, how does that sound?”He was looking at me innocently and full of expectation like a child.“Yes!” I answered without any hesitation before I realize my mistake. He smiled— no more like a sly smirk!Oh my god… I was trapped. I was tricked by those seemingly endless black eyes!“Then, it is settled then.”“No! Wait! I— it is not settled yet! I wasn’t thinking straight!” I argue after my senses came back. I just proved to myself that I do have weakness when it comes to beauty.He titled his head in the left, wondering why I took back my words. “Why? You already agreed to it.”“Stop looking at me with those eyes!” I shouted before I turn my head to avoid his gaze. He straighten and move where I could perfectly see his beauty.“What eyes?” he asked innocently and move closer.Why are you looking at me with a gaze like that! I immediately covered
Chapter Twelve.On the way from was nothing but agonizing. If I did have a choice I am not going to comeback to that hell of a house. But for my revenge and my things I need to swallow this anger first.Bonavich Subdivision.It was the letters that form around as I got closer to my destination.Arriving on the gates of the subdivision, the security guard on duty, Micheal, smiled at me and opened the gates. In return of his friendly smile, I wave at him. Thankfully, I wasn’t ban on entering this ground and no news of the black sheep of the family getting kicked-out got out.“Good morning ma'am.” he greeted simply as my car passed the guard house.Entering the subdivision wasn’t that much stressful because Micheal was such a gentle soul. He might not talk to much but he is kind, more kinder than my very own father.Taking a left turn, I could already see the mansion. As I approach the house, a black car was seen nearing. As I climb out of my car, it was exactly the moment the other vehi
