PROLOGUE
The music sound to the highest tempo of it yet, and I am swaying my hips from side to side as I dance to the beat it elicits
The party ground is crowded with so many people and I don't mind that moving my leg to the side or body to another side attracts yet another person's sweaty body to come in contact with mine
I took a sip of the alcohol I am holding on to swinging my waist to the side as the music grows louder and louder
What better way to escape the night of studying, than what I have been doing for the past two weeks now being in the VIP section of this party is undoubtedly what I longed for.
“You are having so much fun” Lily whispers to my ears as she drags me closer to herself, and we are both grinding on each other with me laughing loudly
I cannot be drunk, yet, because I'm just getting started, and I need as much drink as I can get
I took a swing of the drink I was holding with no content dripping into my mouth. I sigh, slinging my shoulder down
I drag Lily closer to me whispering to her ears “I need to get another drink” whispered
She said yes to what I said, throwing her face the other way she is back to dancing to the beat with a man holding her waist tightly
Knowing she is safer and having fun I turn around using my eyes to locate the bar
“Ah there it is” I walk to the place making sure my leg doesn't flutter and weave until I got to the stand
“I need a drink, anything strong,” I tell the barman seating there
He gave me a side-looped smile and went down to search for the drink
I huffed again sliding to the chairs and settling myself down
I need this drink right now at this very minute. I turned to the other side to watch if I can catch a glimpse of Lily, but instead, I caught a glimpse of someone else
A man who had a drink over his mouth, but his eyes were intently on me,
I gobbled down the drink that wasn't there and looked away when I turned to look his way again he still had the same look on his face. A look of interest
“Your drink” I snapped out of looking at the man as I turned to the barman who had my drink in his hand
“Thank you” I dipped my hand into my purse to get his money out
I handed it to him, but he was shaking his head refusing
“The drink has already been paid for,” He said
“What? I didn't pay for that” I replied to him, a little appalled
“But someone else did,” a husky voice said from behind me, and I turned to where it was coming from
I felt a little shiver running down my back as I turned to my back seeing the gentleman who was just sitting across from me
Because of the dimness of the light I couldn't make out his features, but he is freaking tall. From where I am seating on a high stool, he still towers over me hands down, and is looking up at him
“Thank you” I found my voice, “but it wasn't necessary” I pointed out
He chuckled, through the music sound playing around us, I could still make out the intense sound of the chuckle that came out of his mouth
