Olivia

" Where are you, Sophia?"
I heard the honking of cars behind her voice.

"I'll be there in a minute". I slid the phone on the counter. One of the bartenders moves towards me and the other one mix drinks quickly.
The blonde guy asked me in a casual tone.
"What's your poison"?

"The stronger, the better"
The bartender nodded and started playing with bottles like a pro. It's impressive but what if the bottle slips then?? Never mind!! None of my business. I have my issues to worry about.

I heard a lot about this club. Its interior is quite dark and glassy. Pink and purple lights reflect on people barely enough to see the faces. Meanwhile, the bartender slides the drink on the slab.

Enjoy!! He passed his gummy smile. Besides, I'm pissed.
First, the arrest.
Second, Mr.Devil's unexpected generous behavior is not so fucking normal.
Third, Catherine and Mr.Devil's weird dad called me names. And these hungry stares of men I'm getting around are so uncomfortable.

Ugh!! I realized that I'm wearing that Catherine stripper's dress. I gulp down the drink in one. FUCK!! It burned my throat and I felt the way drink passed my throat. Chilled !!

I waved to the bartender for another drink. I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"Voila" Sophia cheered from behind and slides on the stool on my left.

"Woah!! You are looking- " I passed her the drink ignoring her comment which is obviously on the way I look. Homeless!!

"Damn!! You look hot girl " she eventually drop her comment With a bright smile ignoring how uneasy it is.

"I look like a stripper "

"Yeah!! But...a classy stripper I must say" She said with a wink.

I smile. She stares at my face and asks what's the matter girl.

I take a deep breath" I try to kill my father a few months back that's why I got arrested in the morning and Mr.Devil kissed me." I twirl my finger on the glass rim.
I look up at Sophia, froze she is staring at me.

I raised an eyebrow at her "Are you even listening ?"

She bites her lower lip and shakes her head " Of course!! I am listening that's why my mind froze. I am just trying to process what you just said"

"Are you alright".She asked in a concerned tone

"Until now I was but now I'm barely holding up. On that night I and my mother ran away. I was afraid but there is hope for a new start. But seems past is catching up with us."

"Everything is going to be alright" Bartender place another drink before us.

"Yeah! Hope so"

"Let's concentrate on better things. You kissed "? She winked.

"He kissed and I slapped" Ugh I hate the fact that I slapped him but it is what it is.

"You cock blocker". She smile smuggly.

"But we kissed again today".Her mouth agape.

"Gosh, girl! I need details" she starts jumping up and down.

"We just kissed.. Just kissed". I try to calm her down.

"But you didn't slap this time. I heard he is quite good at things you know" She winks.

"God Sophia !! C'mon we didn't do things... Just a lame kiss. Never going to happen again".

"Hey, babe" Someone slips his hand on Sophia's waist. I blink my eyes to concentrate. But they started kissing. When they pulled out. I recognize the big muscular guy.

"Hey, Olivia". We shake hands. He scratches the back of his head." I'm sorry for earlier".

"No problem. I'm quite used to" passes him a plain smile.
"You guys enjoy". I grip the counter and try to stand.

"Wait!
No! " she grips my wrist.
"We'll give you a ride to home first"

"No! You guys enjoy" I retorted.

"You are drunk, Olivia".

" Am I? No babes" I walk in a straight line. "See am not".

She gave me mum's look. So I just let her win." Okay fine! I'll sit there on that corner".

I make my way to the corner with a glass of whatever the bartender gave me. Whilst they joined the crowd on the dance floor.

I always have this question for everyone. Why do people drink? I hate Alfred for drinking. And here I am being a drunkie like him. There's no problem with alcohol, the thing is people lose control and hurt others. That's where the problem lies.

All these people around me. Enjoying their time with their loved ones in a confined place with drinks. Why can't I?

"Hey, pretty face".
Some drunken teenagers jump on the cushion right next to me.

I look upwards. I'm not blaming you for not having a loved one here. what the hell!
I squeeze my brows in disgust but they immediately look somewhere else. Pretending to be clueless.

" Psst. Psst. How much for a night"
I try to move from the place but a blonde guy with a lip piercing blocks my way.

"Mind if you move aside"
I tried to remain calm as much.

"Of course! But first, tell me your price". He licks his lips which disgusts me more while his other friends cheer him like idiots.

"I'm not for sale Mr.Whatever".I push him aside with full force. But he grabbed my wrist. I smashed my drink on his face whilst his friends started laughing. I instantly slip from their vision.

Sophia and Jade barely got time to spend with each other. I don't want to be a moment spoiler like Catherine. So, I dropped a message instead of ruining their swaying session.

"Sophia, am leaving. See you tomorrow. Thanks for listening to me today. I always wish for a friend like you with whom I can drink and rant anything. Thank you for being there for me "

I felt relaxed when a cold breeze hit my bare skin, Stary and silent night gives calmness to my pacing heart. I slid the heels and hold them. Walking barefoot on concrete is quite pleasant until pebbles try to rip your skin.

"Hey girl, Do you want a ride?"

Ugh!! Same club guys. Why are they even following me? Fucking drunkie bastards.!!
"Not from you creepos"

They surround me and my mind went numb. So I blabber whatever comes into my mind first.
"Do you guys want to fight? I'm ready for that". I'd learned Karate back in school. I think it's high time to use them.

I saw a light coming from a little shop but that's on another side. Holds heels strongly I positioned myself one step forward and the other backward. I slam heels on their face, two of them started whining. I used all my energy and rush to the other side. I heard the screeching sound of tires. Before I even reflex, I almost hit by the car.

Trying to hold my heart as well as my body which is shaking badly, my hands-on car's bonnet which is of no use as am not a supergirl who can stop a fucking car.

The driver honks furiously and doesn't even get out of the car. How in the hell all freaks of California are working together in ruining my life.

I take a deep breath and throw the hair backward to look at who holds the steering wheel.

I squeeze my eyes try to concentrate. Why is Mr.Devil's angry face giving me death stares? I shake my head and slap slightly with both hands on my cheeks.

Again Mr.Devil !!
Can't be possible !!
It's my fucking mind !!

"You bitch"
I heard their voice.

The driver slams the door behind him and the guy in casual clothes gives me annoying expressions.
"Get in the car, Olivia"

"How do you even think that I'll listen to you". I place my hands on my waist.

Mr.Devil moves ahead and those guys stop in between the road. He grabs both my arms on the back.
" You are hurting me". I whined. His hands are quite rough for my gentle skin.

"Get in the car".He whispered in my ear.

"I have a job to finish". I moved back and forth to get rid of his grip.

"GET IN THE FUCKING CAR". He yelled at me and I jumped in fear.

"okay". He loosens the grip and I immediately head towards the car and slam the door with full force. That's the only way I can show my anger at this point.

"Enough with your crap. Gavin, get the girl"One of the guys shouted.

"Back off boys, She is mine".
Inner me just do a backflip. 'Mine'.

"I'm not yours Mr.Devil".I yelled from the car.

"Will you shut your mouth for a while please"? He seems offended.

One of the guys tried to open the door but Mr.Devil instantly grabbed his jacket and slam this face on the car's bonnet.

Oh Gosh!!!
He started punching the other guy in the face while the other two guys grabs him from the back. Pulling him backward.

"Yeah !! Go Mr.Devil..Kick these junkies".
I Turn on the music and Michael Jackson's voice is on the cherry on the top at this moment.

I heard the siren.
Damn!!

"Mr.Devil, get in the car. Police"
I hollered, drunkies already running back to the club side where Mr.Devil instantly get back to the car and ignite the engine which eventually kicks me back on the seat.

"Woah!!. That's amazing. I want a car chase"

"You want what?
How much you drank"?
Concentrating on the road he asked.

I started counting on fingers." I lose the count. Maybe a lot".

"Never mind"
He pulled the car into the basement. Luxurious cars all around in the parking.

" Are you coming?"
He walks out of the car staring at me with those mesmerizing blue eyes.

"No, I'll sleep here" folding arms on the chest I said.

He opens the door and leans towards me making me move backward. His warm breath touches my bare skin making my heart thump fast. "How do you even think am going to let it happen".

He grabs my arm and with a blink of an eye, my body weighs on his shoulder. " Are you kidding me? Put me down".

"Not going to happen, sweetheart".
Gravity is in its action, blood rushing towards the earth and my head started spinning. Meanwhile, I stopped punching on his back as he grabbed my legs to wrap his arm around them.

Ugh!! I place hands on my face as several eyes capture this and some are even clicking the pictures.

" Am going to puke. Your suit seems quite expensive. Do you want me to ruin it?" He put me down instantly while penetrating his eyes into mine. My foot feels cold marble, I hold his arm for a few moments as my body is shivering badly. I'm not going to let him go this easy. He'll suffer for this.

"I tricked you".
I giggled.

" You little vixen"
I traced my finger on his forehead slowly on his nose making him tense. Tracing finger to his neck teasing him deliberately. He closed his eyes taking deep breaths simultaneously.

I stand on tiptoes and whisper in his ears. "It is working isn't it Mr.Devil?"
I smirked proudly.

He twirls me around and my back hits the cold metal of the elevator."Don't try me, Olivia".

Bing!!
Elevator doors opened and some oldies greeted Mr.Devil. They look at my barefoot which represents my homeless nature. I try to hide behind Mr.Devil instead of that he slips his arm around my waist pulling me closer.

I squeezed my eyebrows. "What are you doing"? Try to keep my voice low as much as I can.

But he ignored me and pick me in bridal style. Is he playing a game or something?. I hold his arms tighter but I lose grip so I slipped my arms around his neck instead.

"Where are you taking me? If you are planning to do something. I'm warning you now".

"Or What?" he raised his brows in confidence.

"You know that I can make you dance". I wink.

He chuckles " In your dreams, Sweetheart".
My heart just does a backflip again. What's with this new name 'Sweetheart'. I'm not getting Devil feels these days from him.

"I'm not your sweetheart". I twirl my finger on the back of his neck, he is kinda enjoying it. Slips the finger behind his ear. He closes his eyes in between. Gotcha!! His weak point.

Before I even do something, he loses his grip and I smashed my butt on a soft mattress. I was engrossed so much in irritating Mr.Devil that I doesn't even notice when we entered a room.

"Enjoy your night here". I pulled his tie with my hand. Before I even move elsewhere his muscular body landed on me but thank god he supported his body using both his arms parallel to my face.

Daxton

Fuck!! It's already hard to handle sober Olivia and here is she drunk on my bed. Daring as ever!! Tempting I must add.

"I have work to do".I try to pull but she got hold of my collars and her aura is pulling me like a magnet. How come God let this many bad things happen to her. She is so fragile and innocent.

I hold her hands which are unbuttoning my shirt. "I want you to remember everything".

"I have a sharp mind I'm going to" She pouted.

"Not like this. You are drunk".
I pulled myself together and she smashed a pillow right on my face. Fortunately, I dodged the second one.

"Turn on the Air conditioner. Why do I feel hot today". Before I even find the remote.

She started stripping her clothes off. I turned my face in another direction.
I remove my shirt and place it on the bed without turning.
"Wear it if you feel right".

She slammed her dress on me." What the fuck, Olivia". She laughed like it's funny.

When I was about to leave , her sobbing stopped my steps. My heart skipped a beat when I saw her soft creamy curvy body.

But I shake my head to get rid of my fetish thoughts and I sit on the edge of the bed where she is taking support of the back of the bed, pulling knees towards her body so that she can rest her chin on it.
"What is it"? I asked firmly.

"I-I," she shudders. She slides my dress shirt towards her, slips one arm whilst the other gently. A little chuckle slips from my mouth. A few minutes ago she was screaming about the hot atmosphere. Here is she sliding my dress shirt. I've never thought my shirt looks that damn hot on her.

She flips her hair backward like a pro. Now, she is less distracting than before.

"Your shirt is so soft".she giggled and hugged her.

" I used to spend my weekends in an amusement park when I was 5or6 maybe. That was the best time I have ever had with Alfred. We were like one happy family that any Child could dream of. He used to bring me ice-Creams when I got angry or when he skipped plans due to job. But now I understand all of that was a mirage or a one-time show. I want him gone for real this time". Her face dropped and she is rubbing her fingers anxiously. I don't know what to say. I've never been good at consoling. But my heart couldn't let me sit here. I take a deep breath.

" Trust me. He'll never hurt you and your mother again. I promise." I hold her hands and assure her that everything is going to be alright.

"Now Sleep. I'll not let you skip office".She chuckled. I place the pillows back into their place.

"Don't leave me alone. Please!!" pulling my pant like a little kid she said. Her sparkling eyes clenched my heart and they couldn't let me leave her. Her eyes are that cage from where I've never wanted to fly away.

I sit on the edge parallel to her and she grabs my arm like it's a plushie for her, placed her head on my bare chest. I trace my fingers in her hair maybe it could help her to have a good sleep. I remember Liam did the same thing when I couldn't sleep back then. She nuzzles her nose slightly on my chest which sends shivers to my whole body.

"You have a light inside of you that enlightens the world and a smile which is infectious that it captures the heart of anyone". Her snores make me realize that I was talking to myself. I try to leave but her hand grips hard and I couldn't afford to ruin her beauty sleep at any cost.

Damn!! This girl is driving me crazy.

I text to Jade "Time to execute the plan".

Let's start the actual game now.
