Charter 2 SARAH

SARAH

The buzzing music and loud screams could indicate that I was inside the most anticipated clubhouse in X-City.

People trooped in and out of the club, I didn't even recognize a person from them. I've been here for more than twenty minutes, soaking myself in alcohol…

"One more shot please" I requested, the bartender wasted no time in pouring a shot of vodka and leaving it on the counter for me.

"Fucking bastard, after everything I've done for you!" I yelled, banging my fist hard on the counter and spilling the drink.. I noticed the bartender turn towards me.

"I won't be refilling that drink ma'am, you will have to pay for it" he declared.

"Yeah yeah… no problem. Give me a bottle " I said,

"If you continue drinking this way, you might get knocked out soon" a cold masculine voice spoke, amidst the loud music, I could still hear his powerful cold voice.

I didn't turn nor look at the man who took his seat beside me on the counter. His aura dominated the bar immediately and I felt so uncomfortable with it.

I tried to focus on the bartender who was yet to bring my drink. "You're wasting time…" I groaned.

"Sorry ma'am, I'm trying to get it ready" he apologized,

I took out my mobile phone to check the time, I could barely see anything. It was just so blurry for me. I needed to know what time it was and it left me no choice but to ask the man sitting near me.

"Mister, what is the time?" I asked, leaning my head on the counter.

"9:30 p.m. " he replied to me quickly.

The bartender placed the drink in front of me. I tried taking a few minutes break before attempting to pick it up to drink.

"I do not advise you to drink that, or you'll have yourself to blame for being irresponsible" the man stated.

I was already so annoyed by his presence and now he tried judging my actions.

"Stay away from me, mister. It's none of your business' ' I replied.

"Since you decided to answer to me then I think that it's my perfect business, what do you think, Cherry?"

Hearing him call me a nickname, I decided to give him the attention he'd cracked for. "What do you want?" I asked rudely.

He didn't reply at first, until I tried picking the drink again and he interfered.

"I want you, Cherry.." He said in a cold but seductive tone.

I couldn't deny it, I was mesmerized by him. Jet-black hair, tanned skin, broad muscular chest. He is just the perfect man for me.

I turned my gaze away from him, but didn't drink anymore.

I just picked up my purse and paid the bartender then left. Leaving the club, the cold night breeze hit my hair, forcefully pushing my hair backwards. The whole scene in front of me was blurry and I was uncomfortable.

It felt as if I wanted to throw up, my chest was coagulated with so much alcohol. I have never drank this much before, not for any reason.

I kept walking, as fast as my legs could take me. I didn't have any destination in mind but I knew I didn't want to return to the house. Not especially when I just found out about the affairs that occur there.

I continued walking away, not until a black car pulled over near me and I was forced to stop. "Get in" his cold voice ordered me. I didn't respond.

The vision was still blurry so I didn't see his face but he had this unique deep voice that made me recognize him as the man from the bar.

"Stay away mister" I declared, walking off.

I heard his door open and he walked towards me. He pulled my arm and held me in his arms when I almost tripped. "let go of me!" I yelled.

"No, Chery. You don't look okay and it'll be inhumane of me to leave you walking out in the dark. It's dangerous out there" he declared,

For a moment, I felt comfortable and safe. But I couldn't forget the fact that he was just a stranger to me.

"What do you want from me?" I asked him, breathing heavily..

He didn't respond, not even a word came out of his mouth. The whole atmosphere was silent, and awkward.

He soon let go of me, but I didn't want him to. I really didn't. After a few seconds, he turned to leave.

"Stop" I yelled out, ..

Why the hell did I say that?

I asked myself rhetorically. I glared at him and walked back to me. "What did you say?" He asked.

"Take me with you" I demanded,

He went on to open the door and I went inside without hesitating. A few minutes into the drive and he noticed my discomfort with the air condition, he turned it off immediately.

I've never had anyone notice these tiny details about me but this stranger seemed to.

"So, where do you want to go?" He asked me. I shook my head. "I have nowhere to go. Take me wherever you want to"

This time, I was sure of my decision and I will atone for it. The car came to an abrupt halt immediately I said that. He leaned his face near him and said, "are you sure you want to come with me? There's so many things to explore when we get to my place…"

"Yes… I do want to come" I nodded immediately.

As soon as he resumed the ride, he sped up. It was only a matter of minutes before we drove into a huge Villa, and by now, all I wanted was to be taken by him. I didn't care.

If Steve had the right to cheat, so do I.
