Tobe Carvalho was a bit drunk when he stumbled into the parking lot, trying to pretend he wasn't. His steps were jagged, but he still managed to half-swagger like he owned the night.
Then he saw them.
And what he saw made him pause.
Two ladies were sitting right there on the hood of his car.
One was sobbing her eyes out and laughing at the same time. Her hair was very thick and wild that it practically seemed to swallowing her entire small form.
The other girl was a pretty thing to behold too but recognition struck Tobe.
He watched.
That goddamn nerd.
That bitch!
She was sitting on his vehicle.
His car? Her ass?
No, it didn't sit right with him.
The girls were sweating and laughing except for the other who was also crying profusely and drinking from a big bottle. She was clutching it in her hands like her life depended on it.
"Give me...." She sobbed.
"Hey!" Tobe snapped and stumbled closer.
The one who Tobe had recognized looked up, dazed for a moment and suddenly smirked. She then laughed.
"Fuck you." Tiffany slurred at him, her words sharp even through the haze and the other girl — the smaller one — hugged her like a sad baby.
"Mmm...." The other girl whined shakily. Her tears were still putting up a show. "I'm.... Eee...."
They clung to each other.
Tobe began to came closer, slowly, watching the nerd carefully.
Meanwhile, she was grabbing the seemingly sweet bottle and chugging it down thirstily.
Tobe winced and went to grab the one who wasn't crying. The nerd.
"Get off my car, bitch!"
"Leave me alone...."
Suddenly, the crying one with the voluptuous hair — tumbled forward and bit him on the arm. Hard, with the last of her strength.
Shocked and affected, he jerked back and winced.
The girls were quiet and holding onto each other now.
"What the fuck!"
Pissed off from his head to the toes, he pulled the nerd off and she stumbled onto the ground in a heap.
"No." The full-headed girl wailed in dismay and fell down beside her friend.
A new dawn of tears fell and she buried her face into her friend's tummy and screamed.
Tobe fell in beside her and pushed his fingers into her hair, looking deeply intrigued.
His gaze twisted. Tobe was curious.
★★★ ★★★
Ashley fingercombed her hair and looked down at Maverick with a soft smile.
"Sweetheart, I can't believe I've just been here without checking up on Bree."
"Hey, come on." Maverick whined. "I thought Erwina and Rolando did the whole security configuration thing tonight."
"Yeah. But still...."
"I should go check up on her."
"I'll come with you?"
"She's with Alejandro."
"Uh oh."
"I don't know." Ashley sighed and shrugged. "He doesn't want her at the party."
"I can understand that. I'll come with you."
Ashley smiled at him passionately and at the end, she couldn't help but reach down and pull him in for a deep kiss.
★★★ ★★★
She pressed her face into the pillow and screamed harder.
It was all getting out of hand. The pleasure was pistoning into her core and there was nothing she could do about it. The ecstasy that pooled in between her legs was the one thing that was made to help her lose track of time.
Captured to a surrender, she let it all happen to her. She let it all come tumbling in.
All she had to do right now was wail and thank Alejandro for what he was doing to her.
This was beyond her world. It couldn't be put into words but it was happening. Gaining.
And soon, she was begging and clenching and crying out now.
A powerful hand came choking her and all hell let loose throughout her body.
She was in the world of blinding ecstasy and Alejandro was the master of it.
★★★ ★★★
Alejandro tore a shirt on and went to pull Karliana by the arm.
She staggered along with him. There was no fight. Just a heeding and a follow.
She was limp. Weak. Drunk. She tried to speak but he wasn't listening.
"Get out."
"Alejandro...." She rasped, helplessly. "Listen."
No reply.
He just threw her forward till she fell onto her knees. And then, he said:
"Get out of here."
He didn't look back.
Karliana got to her feet and limped out.
Alejandro breathed out and ran his hands down his face.
"Fuck." He swore.
For a moment, he was silent. Like he was listening to the walls or something but suddenly his phone jolted him.
He shook his head and blinked then went for the door.
Same time, Ashley was going to knock.
She looked inquisitive.
"Where's Brielle?"
He stared down at his sister for long moments. Alejandro noticed Maverick walking over from the side of his eyes.
He didn't mind and replied Ashley.
"Didn't you give her the key to a room?"
Ashley's eyes darkened and sje narrowed them at him.
"I don't understand."
Alejandro knew Ashley was getting angry and sure, why not? She must have seen Karliana limp off like a wounded hyena a few minutes before.
And of course, no one would really be pleased about it.
"So, you were with that bitch...."
Alejandro ignored her.
"Where is she? This isn't the time...."
"Alejandro, you asked Bree to meet you and you left her...."
Maverick didn't stop her from talking but he mentioned her name and held her elbow, softly.
".... I can't believe you'd be this stupid!"
"Don't, Ashley!" Maverick quickly put in and pulled her back while Alejandro shut his room door and urgently headed outside.
Maverick brought out his phone.
"Row?"
★★★ ★★★
Alejandro ran out into the backyard and everyone was lying down in comfort. The music had died into something soft but he didn't seem to notice. He was frantically in search of something.
He was calling Rolando now and the guy was taking too much time to pick.
Alejandro's anger had increased by five hundred notches. His chest rose and fell rapidly. Shaky fists clenched as he tore through the yard and went for the front.
"Alejandro!"
It was Ashley who had cried out frantically.
Alejandro looked at her sharply as she hurried from the front of the house.
"Come and see."
"Where?"
"The parking...."
Alejandro had already bolted off before Ashley could complete her words.
★★★ ★★★
Rolando stared from up his window in the dark room he stood still in, watching.
His face was unreadable. His eyes was on everyone at the same time. But especially, it was fixated on the scene that had begun to unfold at the parking lot.
Tobe was there with the girls and seemed to be looking into Bree's face.
The girl seemed to have fallen asleep.
He turned her head this way and that. His fingers pushed her hair back from her face carefully and continued to linger in her hair.
Rolando's eyes narrowed dangerously and his hand began to go for his pocket. But he had to pause.
Because someone else has entered the scene.
Alejandro.
Slowly, Rolando's hand dropped and he watched for the next action to unfold.
It did.
He stormed into the parking lot and went straight up to the heap without hesitation.
The growl he reflexively let out was enough to alert Tobe and get him to turn and receive the first punch to his tummy.
It land square in Tobe's gut. A wind-sucking blow.
Alejandro was already pulling him up to his feet by the collar and hissing with anger that sizzled from the core of him.
Whack!
The next landed like thunder. It knocked the air out of the limb guy.
"Stop it. Jan!"
The third sent Tobe to his knees, vomiting onto the ground before him.
Alejandro was wincing and shaking now but Ashley's arms had come to hold him from around his waist while she fervently tried to talk sense into Alejandro's head.
"You might kill him. Alejandro, don't. You'll get in trouble...."
He tightened and began to advance.
Maverick was quick to intervene.
Maverick and Erwina had arrived and Maverick took over from where Ashley stopped and held Alejandro away from the guy who had curled onto his side, body jerking with pain.
He was vomiting.
"Fuck, get it down. Calm down."
Alejandro was growling softly.
"And that bitch...."
"Dear God, hold him off." Ashley cried.
