Chapter 2

Amara

I had to try and find Riley and make my way out of the club, my whole mind was racing.What just happened? Who was that incredible man?

All of a sudden I saw Riley dancing with the same man on the dance floor that I left her with.

I pulled at her arm, "Ry come on I want to leave" I begged.It took her a few seconds to recognise that it was me,

"Amara! Heyyyyy, where where have youuu b-been"

She was slurring her words. I could smell on her breath and on her clothes that she had loads to drink already. She was completely drunk with her arms wrapped around some random man.

"Mara Mara, this is Peter. Peter is a reallyyy g-good dancer and he is a lot of fun. Oh my god he's got a f-friend perfect for youuuu" she slurred out.

Peter kindly smiles at me getting ready to speak before Riley bursts out in front of him.

"Peter d-do youuuu think that your friend can help Amara out, she's a bit uptight" she loudly whispered, believing that she was being quiet.

"Riley!" I shout at her.

"Whatttttt Amara, a-am I wrong" she continued.

"You're drunk" I fired back.

"Well yes of course but am I wrong?" She started laughing.

I rolled my eyes and just stayed quiet. Maybe I am too uptight, but that's only because I want to live my life in a gentle way.

"Amara, um this is my friend Jonah" Peter says to me while bringing over his friend that was every girls cliche type. Tall, dark and handsome.

I can't lie this man was breath taking but I wasn't in the mood to stay any longer than I had to.

"Hi I'm Jonah" he introduced to me with his hand held out.

Just to be polite I accepted and shook his hand, "I'm Amara"

"Amara" he repeated to me, "that is a beautiful name" He winks at me.

"Thank you, and I don't want to be rude but we have to go because it's getting late and some of us are just too drunk to stand up right now" I said while gesturing my hand towards Riley.

Both Peter and Jonah looked at me with concern,

"Noooo come on beautiful the night has just begun" Jonah said to me while advancing forward and grabbing me by the waist.

I tried my best to pull away from his grip but he was too strong for me to.

"No I think we need to get going now!” I insisted

Riley suddenly jolted up as if she was waking herself up.

"Amara I'm going to stay for a bit longer because I haven't been out in soooo long, but you can go home if you want" she continued to slur.

I would argue with her and stay by her side or trying to get her some but she's was way too stubborn for that I won't listen to me regardless of what I said.

I hesitantly started to make my way to the exit of the club making sure to tell Riley to text me when she wants to leave and keep me updated.

As I began to walk my way home in this disgustingly painful heels. I began to shiver and shake from every muscle in my body.

My feet were in agony and my whole body was frozen, I was trying my best to keep warm but nothing seemed to work. All of a sudden a limo pulled up right next to me with the driver lowering his window to talk to me.

"Excuse me mam, I have been instructed to bring you to your home safely by my boss" he instructed

I was so confused. What?

"I'm sorry but I don't get into strangers cars, my mother as I'm sure every mother taught their children that." I spiked back.

I carried on walking no matter how hurt my feet were I was determined to get home.

The man just continued to follow me in the limo,

"come on miss, my boss won't let me let you walk home and I'll probably get fired if you don't get home safe" he pleaded to me as I continued to walk.

"I'm sorry sir but that is not my problem." I said more determined than ever.

"Miss my bosses name is killian Medici" he told me.

I just gave him a more confused look and walking with a limp now because of how bad my feet hurt.

"And why would that matter?" I told him.

My feet now began to cramp up and I had to stop waking from the pain, I took my heels off and small tears began to roll from my eyes.

"He told me that he met you in the club tonight, that he had unfinished business with you" the driver now came out of the car to help me up onto my painful feet.

That man. That must be him.

"I'm sorry, but does your boss happen to have bright green eyes and dark hair" I asked.

The driver smiled at me and nodded his head, "yes mam"

I was still hesitant of whether to go with this man, for some reason I let this stranger in a club grope me and now I'm getting driven home by his driver. This is a strange night.

"You're going to take me straight home?" I once again asked with more innocence to my voice.

"That's what I've been told to do, yes" he insisted.

I nodded my head towards the man and he helped guide me into the limo where i slouched back in pain.

"I'm sorry, but what is your name?" I asked him.

"Antonio"

He has a nice warm smile that felt very welcoming and humble.

I wonder why this killian wanted me to get home safety even though I've just met him.

"Antonio can you do me a favour?"

"Of course mam what's wrong?" He said very concerned.

"Well my bestfriend is still in the club, can you drive her home safely like you've done with me?"

He simply replied with, "I will mam"
