Adrian's POV

Clink! Clink ! Clink !
I strain my ears to the swooshing sounds the brown coloured liquor in my glass makes against the ice cubes as I shake it continuously . I drowned the beer I was holding moments ago and ordered a glass of hard liquor. I need something stronger. Mills is passed out from beside me leaning on the bar table for support. He has been behaving really off lately and I'm beginning to get worried. Ket is typing away on his phone grinning from ear to ear. I look between both guys and drown the last of my liquor.

I've turned down a lot of dance proposals from girls that clearly find me irresistible. Trust me I don't even try. Mills is mumbling something incoherent and his drunken state is begining to piss me off.

" Dude what is wrong with him ? " I ask Ket. He doesn't look away from his phone but answers me anyways

" Oh him? Girl problems dude " he answers glancing at Mills

"What!! " I am surprised. I have no idea Mills is in a relationship. I mean he doesn't talk about the stuff and I've always thought that he's just not into it. Well I guess I am wrong. Obviously Ket knows about it.

" How long ? " I manage to ask Ket unable to take my eyes of Mill's drunk frame. Ket must have seen the unbelievable expression on my face because he doesn't hold back his amused laugh and answers me.

" I think it's been about 3 years now " he curtly says

"Damn " I practically yell

" I know insane right ? " Ket chuckles again. Which means Mills started dating this girl when he was 19, cause he's now 22 and I'm 23 and so is Ket just a few months ahead of me. But fuck where was I all this while? I'm not really bothered about the fact that he didn't tell me about it , cause he must have had his reasons . I'm just surprised. He has been really keen about it.

" Who's she , do I know her? " My question seems to snap Ket out of his engrossed typing , because he immediately looks at me with a worried look on his face. I raise any brows at him ?

" Sorry bro , I've already said enough " he says and quickly looks back on his phone. Before I can ask what he meant by that, something catches my attention on the dance floor. My goddess ! Her arms wrapped around the neck of another guy, her face buried in his chest and he has an arm draped around her waist and the other rubbing her back gently. They seem to forget that the dance floor is meant for dancing not , cuddling and caressing. I take a good look at the guy and recognise him. He's Ahim , the son of Baron Molle,of the bigfoot clan. Being the son of the Baron, of my clan, I attend a lot of clan meetings and might have spoken to him a couple of times. He never did mention anything about being in a relationship though and I never asked. Everything was strictly business.

I stare at their interaction for a while longer , and when he tilts her chin and caresses her cheeks, and it looks like he's going to kiss her, I realize I've had enough and look away. I get off the bar stool I'm perched on.

" Take him home " I tell Ket and don't wait for him to answer and walk away. I get to the parking lot and fish out the keys to my red lamborghini. Once I'm settled in, I just sit and wait. I run my hand through my hair and untie it from the little ponytail.

I can't believe she has a boyfriend! Maybe I'm just imagining things, and besides, what do I care if she has a boyfriend? I start the car and drive out of the parking lot. It's still to early to go home , so I decide to drive around and kill time.

I don't get far when I spot a figure. A familiar female figure on the side walk of the street , strolling slowly with her head bowed. The dress on her helps with my recognition. No one else can look this gorgeous in a dress if not her. And I've already seen how she looks in it, so I immediately know it's her. My goddess. But what's she doing out here all by herself? And why is she not still at the party? Last I saw her she was about to suck face with another guy. I should just pass by , but I don't . I notice her feet is bear and she has her shoes in her hand.
