Pete's POV
Three months later events from FanFic 'The Way You Taste' (Chapter 29): Fancy party at The Diamond Private Club
We are back again to The Diamond Private Club.
It's the first time in two months that Vegas has let me out of the safe house. Not after a lot of arguing. And an intense night of reconciliation.
I am not happy to be back at this club. But we definitely need to be here tonight to talk to this despicable being, Khun Sanya.
...
"Long time no see. I'm glad you came." Khun Sanya smiles cordially at me and Vegas, who just nods in boredom.
"Thanks for inviting us" I put my hands together and bow to him pretending to be friendly.
"This is a party between business partners. It wouldn't make sense if you weren't here."
"That's what we are, isn't it?" Vegas shows his cunning smile.
"I consider you more than that for sure..." Khun Sanya winks at me.
The tension is palpable between those two. People are easily fooled by seductive, friendly smiles like those of Vegas and Khun Sanya.
But I am no longer deceived by them.
Khun Sanya is bold now. Much of his true personality is evident to me. He no longer tries to hide his true self. He's kind indeed...but dangerous like every mafia boss. He turns to talk to me.
"How was your trip to China, Khun Sanya?"
"Very promising, Pete. It might be interesting for you to go there. I remembered of you when I saw this object."
He hands me a black velvet box. Inside, a crystal and diamond chess piece.
Vegas frowns.
"It's a Knight." He smiles at me again "Oh! I have one for you too, Nong Vegas. Do not need to be jealous."
Vegas takes the black box unwillingly.
"A king." Khun Sanya smiles wryly at Vegas. Then he looks at the two of us. "Those pieces suit you both well, don't they?"
Vegas doesn't look at the object. He just keeps his menacing gaze on Khun Sanya.
"They do. Thank you, Khun Sanya. It was very kind of you."
"And you're always...so deadly cute, Pete." Khun Sanya reaches out to touch my face, smiling lewdly to me.
Vegas steps between us, giving him a death-glare. Khun Sanya retracts his hand and smirkes back.
"Please, enjoy the party...have fun."
He leaves us alone.
"I hate this guy. He can put this gift right in the middle of his ass."
