Chapter 1

Yana immediately hurried to Hank, her childhood friend.staircase down to the main door when she heard the doorbell ring.

“You’re late," she said while grinning

"Yeah, but I came, sweetheart," he said and managed to wink at her. They will go to a party of one of their colleagues.

He used to call her sweetheart since grade school, his endearment caused some of her suitors to back off during their high school and college days.

She happily reached out for his hand when he extended it.

And went out the door hand in hand.

A red sports car was outside waiting for them.

“I thought you won’t come, Hanky,” she said as they were inside his car.

“Did I ever break my word to you?” he asked, his eyes on the road while driving.

“Never, you’ve been very constant to your word, it was just you were always late."

She laughed.

His eyes grew bigger and made him laugh too. She stared at him for a while.

Her best friend is really good looking, his face is like a boy's next door type.

And many girls in their University envied her for having him.

But she doesn’t feel anything for him aside from being best friends, he’s like an older brother to her.

And she also knew that he changed women every now and then.

The party has tight security. The hosts were the Van Mansfeld, and their daughter Hilary is one of their friends.

“Hello, Rhianna, I’m glad you two made it," Hilary said while approaching them, she gave her a quick peck on the cheek.

She is stunningly beautiful in her black halter dress.

And when she looked around, she saw that guests were all wearing their designer’s clothes, both gowns and tuxedos. She felt really intimidated, she wish, she would come ready.

She is just wearing a simple gown, a ballerina style, above the knee cut and has beautiful beads all over, its red color that highlights her creamy white skin and her perfect curves.

What she is wearing may not cost a fortune, but she thinks she deserves a second look while wearing it.

“Please follow me, I’ll bring you to your table," Hilary said, not looking at her, because she was looking at Hank, who is obviously not interested in Hilary's affection towards him.

Food and drinks were overflowing, and many continental foods were being served.

There was also a live band singing on the stage, while a few couples were dancing on the platform in the middle.

“Let’s dance, sweetheart,” Hank invited her, but she refused.

Her feet are aching while wearing those silver stilettos, which she's not usually wearing.

The pain is bearable, but her feet are really sore, she even sees red marks on it.

She preferred sneakers and jeans.

“You may dance, Hanky, I’ll go to the restroom to powder my nose," she whispered in his ear. Her voice is so soft.

"Just go and enjoy yourself, many girls are looking at you, and you can ask them to dance with you." She left him after.

This house is so huge! she thought. She was roaming around to find the rest room until she passed by a shrubby bush, and found a beautiful garden.

She didn’t know that there’s a paradise hidden. It's really a breathtaking view, different flowers were there, and its landscape was very beautiful.

She was so amazed and decided to stay a little longer.

And then she heard a commotion, it’s like a man and woman whispering to each other.

Like moaning, their sounds are really audible, and it reaches her ear.

Out of curiosity, she tried to find out where the sound was coming from since it is getting louder and louder, and she thinks they are just a few steps away from her.

And to her surprise, she saw a man and woman making out under the moonlight! It seems unnoticed but their moans of pleasure betray them, as their bodies move in unison, they are creating a sensual sound.

The man was tall and had a huge body, he had a broad shoulder, his tuxedos hugged his arms tightly.

She didn’t see their faces because they were facing on the other side, but she clearly saw the man’s back.

The man was thrusting at the woman from behind, who makes crazy sounds of pleasure, as if enjoying his every thrust as he goes deeper and deeper, releasing all he got, just to pleasure his mate.

"Ohhhhh!! yeah, just right there, faster Nate! I'm cum**ng, I will go crazy if you stop Nate! Ohhhhhhh!"

She covered her mouth, it’s her first time seeing such a show!

You should be out of here! her mind commanded.

But she was so curious, she wanted to stay longer.

She feels hot down there, as if imagining herself as the woman, she feels wet, and a tingling sensation flows from her belly down to the middle of her thighs. Oh my goodness! Her body betrays her.

And after a minute of watching a scandalous scene, she decided to leave, even though she was trembling.

She made her step backward, but she bumped into a bonsai tree and made a sudden sound that made the man face his back.

And before she could run, he already saw her standing a few steps away from them.

The man gave her a naughty grin, but didn’t stop pumping, he even made a faster and deeper thrust to the woman who lost her sanity and now crying the man’s name!

His gaze raked through her body and it made her shivered. He continued thrusting the woman deeper and in a rapid move.

She can feel intense heat that started to build up inside her, she is soaking wet.

Oh! My goodness!

She could not move, but she managed to look back at the man and fight his malicious stares.

This man is undeniably handsome, in his late thirties maybe. He is oozing with sex appeal and his body promised pleasures.

And because she got carried away with what she saw, she ran, and immediately found her way back to the party.

Her breathing was heavy as she imagined that obscene act, imagining the handsome man doing pleasure to her body, she tilted her head of what she thought.

She walked continually even though her feet really hurt, after a few more steps, she finally got back to the party.

She saw Hank who looked worried, she ran to him and held his arm.

“Where have you been? I’m so worried,” he asked sincerely.

“I was .. .I was lost, I could not find my way back, it took me several minutes to return where I’ve been”, she said while stammering.

“Did you just run? You look pale, are you okay?" he said while touching her forehead.

“I’m perfectly fine, it’s just I saw a creepy thing in the garden so I ran." She gave him a fake smile, though her lips were trembling.

“If you like, we can leave and just go home, you look uneasy, sweetheart," his voice was full of concern, his eyes looking at the depths of her words.

“Don’t mind me, I’ll be fine, Hanky," she gave him a wide smile while pressing both cheeks.

He laughed at what she just did. While walking, she tried to look back at the garden and took a deep sigh. Who is he? she thought.

Nathan is zipping his pants, while Amelia Williams is still caressing his body.

She is so clingy and horny, she even agreed to do a quickie when he told her to leave the party for a while. Her body was so hot and was really ready for him.

“You are so good Nate, you’re the best lover I may say, orga*m never felt this good," she said while touching his pants again.

He looked at her boringly, her fake eyelashes were out of place, and her mascara scattered around her eyes, with her lipstick removed and with messy hair. She looks awful! he thought.

“Fix yourself dear, your make up almost ruined your face," he said. "You need to remove it, and put in a new one.”

She is sitting while he is standing in front of her, his hands in his pocket.

“Can we see each other again?” She was almost hopeful, she gave him a puppy eyes, batting her fake eyelashes,

"I told you earlier, I am a very busy person, and with no strings attached, we just both enjoyed what we just did,” he said frankly.

He has no plan of seeing her again, she is not the kind of woman he would like to be with.

He is so sure that she will demand more of his time if he allows her to see him again.

Which is definitely out of his line, he is just enjoying his damn life. Fucking any woman in any time of the day!

Then, Amelia starts sobbing, oh man!

This is what he does not like. Her tears now are mixing with her mascara, and hearing her sobs made him so pissed.

“I will just call you," he said to console her feelings. And suddenly, her sobbing stopped.After a few seconds of looking at her, he decided to leave.

He was walking when he remembered the girl in a red dress, she looked familiar, he swore he already saw her.

But he could not remember when and where. He thought nobody saw them while making out in the garden, but he was wrong, a beautiful woman saw him hammering Amelia.

He wasn’t sure how long she had been standing there, but she looked so curious and innocent.

Her beautiful face matches her red dress, she looked like a fairy from a wonderland, ready to grant him a wish. He can’t help but to smile, he will look for her in the party.

Rhianna is sitting on their table, it’s almost eleven o’clock in the evening, though the party is not yet over.

Some are drunk and more people are dancing on the platform.

Then she sees a familiar figure just standing a few meters from where she is. Her heart starts to beat faster again, the dim light cannot hide his dark gaze.

The man is directly looking at her! With a smirk on his face. He was talking to some other folks in the party, and his gaze made her feel uneasy. Good thing Hank returned to their table.

“Let’s go, sweetheart."

She didn’t respond with his invitation, so Hank looked at the man she was looking at.

“So, that son of a ***h is here!” he said while gritting his teeth.

“Do you know him?” she asked curiously.

“Of course! Forest, my brother, hates that man! He is a shrewd businessman, some of the investors in our company pull out their shares because of him," he said disgustingly.

“He was the shark in the business world, and many people knew how rude and arrogant he was."

Hank raised his brow, and looked at her.

“You like him?” he asked her, it was a statement.

“Of course not! I just saw him! He was looking at me earlier.”

Hank instantly changed his mood, from a playful smile, to a serious one.

“He was looking at you? But why?” he asked her seriously. “Have you two met?” he asked her while looking at the man.

“Actually, I saw him in the garden, but he wasn’t alone, he’s with somebody," she confessed, besides, she can’t lie to him. Hank knew her very well to lie.

“Did he harass you?” His voice was hard, yet, it was soothing.

“No, there’s no such thing, I saw them making out from a distance," she said while blushing.

“But it wasn’t intentional, I accidentally caught them doing a quickie in the garden, and when I was about to leave, he saw me.”

“Good thing, he didn’t do any harm, because if he does, I will kill him,” Hank told her, and he looked so serious while saying those words.

His eyes almost turned into one line, and his chest was moving in his heavy sigh.

“Beware of that man, he is known to be a womanizer, don't entertain him once he tries to approach you," she knew it was a warning from Hank.

She just nodded, even though in her heart, she wanted to meet the guy, in spite of their negative feelings about him.

Then, Hank leaves her for a while to go to the men's room.

She is massaging her ankle because it’s really painful. She slightly bent her body, and her face was facing the ground, she saw red marks in both ankles, she groaned in pain.

She felt somebody occupied the other chair, she thought it was Hank.

He is really fast huh! she smiled at the thought, she straightened her back, and wearing her charming smile, she faced him.

“You’re so fast, Hank-“ her face changed when she saw the man looking intently at her. And he wasn’t her best friend!
