People were talking and socializing, mostly trying to make some business deals in here. You could say this place has become a hotspot of business ideas. Although, mostly are bad.
"Let me buy you a drink."
It looks like the same disgusting man is back. Man, these 'men' are the one who sully our name. Hey! You know people like you are a disgrace to the word called 'men.' Nah, I don't think you know this, do you? Could I say this out loud? Nope, I can't.
"Sorry, I don't drink too much."
"Well, I insist," said the 'creepy' man. His smile was so lecherous that it couldn't be described in words. Plus, he stinks. His teeth are yellow. Dude, you should brush your teeth first.
"Miss Alice, right? One drink wouldn't hurt."
I sighed and looked at him. "I am sorry, Sir. But I am not interested, okay? Get the hit already!" I scoffed.
The man sneered at me and left.
Wow, the man just left. How oddly persuasive!
There was something wrong with this man. He is an alpha, yet unlike other alphas, his scent is so putrid that it makes me nauseous. I feel like I might vomit any second. But that's not what confuses me. He is stinking more and more with each passing second, yet no one is showing any form of 'repulsion' towards him. Is it me? Or, is there something else at play?
Suddenly, I spotted Demian walking towards me. Jeorge was also present with him. He waved at me and yelled, "Hello! Alice, you are looking good. Professional attire suits you."
Hearing him praise me, Demian glared at me with a vicious look.
I laughed awkwardly and said, "Thank you, Mr. Jeorge."
"Nah! Jeorge is fine. And you do look good. Am I right, Demian?"
"I don't care," scoffed Demian. His glare intensified as if he wanted to burn me alive with his eyes.
"Oh~ Demian's being jealous!"
Fuck you two! Why are you being so lovey-dovey in front of me? Go somewhere else! Jeorge, you bastard! If I get fired, then I will kill you!
Not wanting to get trapped in between their 'war of love,' I stood up from my seat. "Excuse me, Sir... I hope you can relieve me from my duty. It's almost 11 PM. It's late, I hope you understand."
Demian nodded stiffy.
"Drive safe," said Demian.
"Thank you, Sir."
"Well, bye~ Alice! We will meet tomorrow, okay?"
Fuck you! I immediately bolted from the scene, no longer having any chance of offending Demian.
Catching my breath, I entered the underground parking lot.
Ah, shit! I forgot that I had to go on a dinner date with Mary. But... I am really tired. I hope she understands. Working for Demian, is kind of tiring. And my body is no better. On top of that, according to 'OG' Alice's notes, my 'heat' is just a week away. I have to buy some bloody suppressants. Wow, my life is certainly interesting.
"H-hey... l-let me... g-go... I... who a-are... you?"
"H-hey... p-p-please..."
"H-help..."
Soft pleas entered my ears, halting me in the process of finding my car. I stopped for a moment, before walking towards the source of the sound. What I saw, shocked me completely. It was the same man who tried to flirt or, 'eye-rape' me. But what shocked me... was his eyes. They were pitch black. And I am certain that his eyes were 'lecherous!' Not monstrous! I took cover behind a car.
In his arms there was a woman... fuck! It's Lindy. She had left the bar long ago. Where did she come from?
Lindy's face was flushed red. She was completely out of her mind. A drunk woman. But how is that even possible. No, this has to have something to do with this 'man' in front of me. Just as I was about to confront him, I stopped. This has nothing to do with me. I can just walk away from this. Just forget it! Yeah, I will.
"H-h-help me..."
A drunk, yet anguished-filled cry entered my ears.
"Fuck it!" I hissed.
I immediately got out of my hiding spot and ran towards him. But before I could do anything, the man had already left with his car. And Lindy was with him.
Fuck it! Fuck! Fuck! I looked around and spotted my car. Without wasting any time, I entered into my car and started the engine.
"It was blue car. A Ford, to be precise. I remember the number. Now, all I need is to find them. Thankfully, the car had a large sticker on the back of it. I am pretty sure that man... or, creature couldn't have gotten very further. At the very least, 500 metres. 50 metres per second, that will be my target.
Driving the car, I left the mall's underground parking lot, fully prepared to expect the worse. This world was not supernatural.
"Fuck it! Why the fuck is it even happening?! Where the hell did that creature even come from?! Goddammit! Why do I even have to go after him? I can just turn around and forget everything that had transpired just a moment ago," I punched the steering wheel in anger.
Cursing at my luck, I sped up. I still haven't seen the car, and time was running out.
The sky was looking ominous. It was as if something bad was going to happen. I took deep breath and sighed. No, I can't give up now! At that moment, I saw the sticker. My eyes widened in shock! Yes, I have found it! Now, all I have to do is to follow it. Or, should I go for public confrontation?
