His Series #9: Scorpio Middleton

Chapter Thirty-One

Bakit ba hindi yung tinted glass car ang dinala ko!?

"H-hi there!" Bati ko.

"Hello there Scorpio." Bati ni Amy sa kanya at nagbeso-beso sila. "Condolence pala.." She said and Scorpio just nod.

"Tara na, mukhang magsisimula na ang party." Pag-aya ni Scorpio and I nodded.

"Let's go." I said at sabay-sabay na lumakad kami papunta sa entrance.

Fuck, muntik na kami doon.

[SCORPIO]

Music blares around me and people started to mingle into each other but I don't fucking care.

I came here for alcoholic beverage.

Naubusan na ako ng stock sa bahay at nakalimutan kong utusan si Hans na mag-grocery.

Some girls tried to flirt with me but I shrug them off.

Wala ako sa mood for fucks sake.

Nag-angat naman ako ng tingin when I heard a giggle behind me, I looked back and I saw a lady in little black dress.

Her built is familiar pero hindi ko naman maalala kung sino iyon.

She is not looking at me, actually she is talking to someone.

And I don't know why it irritates me.

I just rolled my eyes at humarap ulit sa bar.

"One more." I ordered.

"Stressed out?" I looked at the bartender, it was Harley.

"Hey, you are here." I said and she chuckled at inilapag ang order ko.

"Security protocol." She explained and I nodded. This place is packed with the people that have a thick wallets and I understand why Blaze take Zaim's service. "I'll leave you there." She said at inasikaso ang iba pang costumer na nasa bar counter.

"Hey..." I looked beside me and I saw the girl awhile ago.

"Hi." I greeted back, sa mga naunang babae hindi ko sila pinapansin. Hindi ko alam kung bakit exempted ang isang ito.

Or maybe because I'm already buzzing.

"Alone?" She asked.

Inalalayan ko naman siyang makaupo sa bar stool, she's like Jared. Medyo clumsy.

"You are here, now I am not." I answered, really Scorpio? "I love your mask." I complimented and she smiled.

"Thank you." She answered and ordered a drink to Harley.

"Put it on my tab." I said.

"No thank you, I can buy a--"

"Nope, not a chance lady.." I said and winked at her at kita ko naman ang pamumula ng pisngi nito.

Just like Jared.

"Here you go, enjoy." Harley said and winked at me which made me confused.

Kilala niya ba ang babae na to?

"So what's your name?" She asked and surprisingly, hindi iyon high-pitxh and seductive.

Just her normal voice.

"I'm Scorpio, you are?" I asked.

"I'm...Jane.." She said.

There's an uncertainty in her voice pero hindi ko na lang pinansin iyon.

"So, matagal ka ng uma-attend sa ganito? anong trabaho mo?" She asked again.

"Nope, this is my first time attending at this kind of gathering and I'm a surgeon." I said and ordered a drink again for the both of us.

"You have a wife?" She asked.

Ipinakita ko naman ang wedding ring ko sa kanya at kaagad na tumingin naman ito sa paligid.

"Your wife is here?" She asked and I chuckle cause she look so scared.

"Don't worry she's not..."

"Why?"

"She's dead." I muttered and I heard her gasp.

"I'm so sorry." She said but I just shake my head.

"No worries, that's why I came here to entertain myself." I said and looked at her. "Can you be my companion for the night?" I asked and her eyebrow raised and a smile formed in her lips.

"Sure." She said and we cheers our drink.

GEMMA shake her head at sumandal ito sa bar counter, Harley came to her.

"Look at her, ang sarap niyang sabunutan." Gemma muttered.

"Who? Jared?" Harley asked whispering the name.

"Yeah." Gemma said and drank the vodka that Harley gave her. "Kunwari pang ayaw niya eh tignan mo naman kung makapag-flirt sa asawa niya enjoy na enjoy." Gemma said in irritated tone at natawa naman doon si Harley.

"Hayaan mo na minsan lang naman yan." Harley said at binigyan ulit siya ng vodka at nagsalin din para sa sarili niya.

"Cheers?" Harley asked and Gemma chuckled.

"Cheers." Gemma answered at sabay naman silang uminom.

Gemma's eyes caught someone lurking near Jared and Scorpio.

"I gotta go." Gemma said at saka umalis sa pwesto niya at pinuntahan ang lalaking iyon.

It might be Tristan's spy.

She huffed when he started to run at kaagad naman siyang sinundan ni Gemma.

And she successfully tackled him to the ground and thankfully walang masyadong tao sa part na iyon.

Ini-umpog niya ang ulo nito sa sahig and grabbed her collar.

"Who sent you!?" Gemma asked in a scary tone.

"I-I'm here to give them a warning" The man answered.

"What is it?" She asked again.

"T-tristan will be back for him...he will take what is rightfully his." The man said.

Gemma clenched her jaw and she immediately twisted the neck of that man and stood up.

"Clean this up." Utos ni Gemma sa isa sa mga security doon.

Oh damn, Jared really need to move faster than him.

Can't wait to end this battle.
