Chapter 1 Caught in his arms
MALISSA
I was alarmed by the sudden buzzing sound from a phone at the corner of my bed, I struggled to pick it up thinking it was mine from the table nearby. However, I stretched my arms towards it but it dropped, the phone or table were nowhere to be found.
I resumed enjoying my nighttime sleep after bringing my arms back to myself as I placed them just below my head. I was curled up in someone's arms and sliding towards the edge when it dawned on me that I wasn't alone in bed.
Startled and terrified, I snapped my eyes open and turned carefully to see who I was sharing the bed with. "The same man from the bar," I was dumbstruck. My eyes widened as I yelled, "how did I get here?".
He sprung up from the bed like he was being chased in a dream.
"You're awake," what's wrong? Why did you scream in such a manner?" He asked, in confusion, merely scratching his eyes and tried to touch my chin.
"Who the hell are you?" I snapped.
He continued looking at me in disbelief like I was some kind of comedian.
"You are joking right?" He asked, looking at me shabbily.
"Wh- what the hell!" .... "How did I?" I rushed out of the bed before getting answers on how I ended up on his bed and realized I was only on my panties.
I sobbed, shrinking to him and slamming into his chest.
"Why am I only in my panties? "You hurt me in this way; why?
He kept on staring at me with his cold dazzling eyes but I didn't quiver.
My legs folded as I tried covering my body with my hands moving my eyes around the room in search of my clothing's. My eyes got caught of them gently folded and placed on the couch and it puzzles.
How did I get here?" I hissed in disbelief, then it hit me-it was my wedding morning.
It is my wedding morning I cried out, hopping up from where I was leaning as I gathered my belongings and put on my clothes, I still couldn't find my purse or phone.
Whatever his name was, he sat on the bed, looking lost as his eyes followed me as if he had seen a ghost.
Audrey! She left me in the club, could all that has happened be a setup? I was left thinking, does this explain her abrupt change of heart towards me?
"If you must know, nothing happened"; at last, he spoke, bringing my thoughts back to the present.
So, he had the boldness to speak, I ignored him and continued searching for my purse.
"Where is my phone?" I questioned him.... "Where could Audrey be?" But he seemed to be uninterested in what transpired in front of him.
JASON
Getting across to my personal assistant seemed abortive despite my repeated attempts to get in touch with him. There has been a sudden spike in our product prices and I needed to know who made that adjustment. He consistently provided an explanation for all his flaws; this wasn't the first time it had happened. I moved my head in frustration when all of a sudden, I looked up and my eyes met the unblinking gaze of someone.
I watched as she starred, she's gorgeous, I won't lie, I couldn't help but stare as she walked in earlier. I noticed she was drunk and her friend had left her for over an hour.
I saw how she dealt with the man that tried harassing her and I thought she had herself together not until after she gave that look.
I contemplated if I should take her home before these ravenous bastards in the club had their way with her.
She had trouble sitting down when I walked over to her.
I thought to myself, "Poor little brat, why did she take so much liquor knowing that she wouldn't be able to handle the aftermath"?
"Hello!" I said.
"Hey handsome", she responded flirtatiously in her drunken and embarrassing state.
"Where did your friend go, weren't you to leave together?"
"Oh! that's my cousin,". She said as she laughed shabbily.
I watched as she stood up, staggered and fell to the ground. I lifted her up right away, and to my surprise, she pulled me to a kiss.
I was taken aback as my jaws dropped. I refrained and held her in both arms, "You're drunk. Tell me where you live so I can take you home."
"I'm not drunk", she leaned over to me and whispered into my ears with her cute feminine voice as she tapped me on the chest. "I want you; you look so handsome, I want to know what it'll feel like having you inside of me.", she purred and fell on my shoulders.
People peered at us but I was glad I got to her first, she would have probably been raped by the other men most especially that bastard harassing her.
I lifted her up and placed her on my shoulders holding her purse in the other hand. Thankfully, she was light weighted. I took her out of the club and headed towards my car parked at the garage.
I noticed the disappointment etched on that bastard's face while he wielded a stick most likely waiting for her to go so, he may attack her.
He wouldn't even dare, I thought, I might be a bit cool headed these days but he wouldn't dare. I glanced at him and chuckled as I continued in my steps.
She was already asleep when we got to the car, at least, I thought so. I placed her at the backseat of my Maruti Wagon R LXI Waltz and she immediately held me with her tiny heads by my collar pulling me closer.
"Please don't leave me, my sister already left, please don't leave me", she pleaded, sobbing softly.
I slowly removed her hands, placing them gently by her sides assuring her that I wouldn't.
I asked her where she stayed since she was a bit conscious but I got no response, then I decided to take her to my inn.
We arrived at about 12:43 am after a slow and peaceful trip during which I took care not to wake her.
Carrying her on my shoulders wasn't even an option, I didn't want any suspicious thoughts or attention, it was my thing, I woke her up but she wanted pulling me closer to her as she laid at the back seat of the car. Could being intoxicated also make her sexually aroused??
