Drunk?

RUDY'S POV :

After what feels like an eternity, finally, the fights are completed for today. I have been waiting for Lioness to appear all of a sudden but no, there is no sign of her since that night.

Maybe she just came to test her strength after a long time. That might be one of the reasons, possible right? But who knows when she will appear again and that's why I have been coming here every day so that I can see her fight again.

I just wanted to know who is behind that mask and who trained her so well for becoming one of the strongest fighters in the world. And what could be the reason behind her fierce attitude, It's just my curiosity, always wanting to know everything and wanna solve a mystery.

I have been having doubts. Doubts about her being a part of criminal background. Then only she can learn from the strongest fighters just like us. But it's just my thoughts though.

It could be true or false. Whatever it is, I just wanted to know about her. I became a fan of her fights since I saw her the first time. And her attitude and voice, it reminds me of someone I have met before.

This is the main reason for me wanting to know about her mostly. And the fact that she wore a purple contact lens along with black haired wig makes me even more intrigued and also curious as to know why she wanted to imitate us. I wanted to know whether she wanted to imitate us or mock us.

But why did she wear it in the first place, did she do it because she hates us or because she likes us?

Many doubts, so many doubts have been playing in my mind since then. And I'm so eager to see her fight again. If she wears the same attire again, imitating us then she definitely wanted us to recognise her and also she is someone who knows about us.

She is such a closed book, but I will unleash the truth one day and make her show her face. I'll definitely find her and will ask her all the questions.

After that night, Julian was so angry because of the humiliation. But it's his fault to trigger her by saying all the unnecessary things, he shouldn't have done that.

I gave him one hell of a class for talking shit about women when he woke up after 2 days. Yeah, that's right, he was unconscious for 2 days straight and got a few broken bones. He is taking a rest for now but will come back once he completely recovers.

He has been searching for Lioness, to give her a lesson since he woke up, even though I told him not to cause any more problems. He is a nice guy but after that night, he is behaving weirdly. I have been observing him since he woke up and appointed someone to keep an eye on him so that he won't do something that he wouldn't.

And also I appointed someone else in Julian's place until he recovered, that person will fight in his place. I can't fight every day as I have to take care of my clubs also. Even though Tony is trying his best to take care of all the clubs, it is difficult for him to manage everything.

And today, I have to go to the nearest club to this fighting club just to make sure that everything is going well. Not only that but also to add a little colour to my busy and exhausting life. I guess you understood what I'm referring to😉.

It's been 2 days since I went to a club and enjoyed it a little. And everyone is thinking that I have changed. No, I haven't and will not change for anything. And I'm going to prove that today, I'm Rudy Edward king, I will never change so easily. Well, I can hear that you are saying never say never, right?

I took my keys and went to the parking lot to take my car. Without wasting any time I started my car and in an instant, I was in front of my club. After parking the car, I entered the club and was greeted by the bodyguards.

Awe! Such a piece of lovely music! Just by entering the club, loud music hit my eardrums and my mind went off with all the thoughts and started to dance to match the music while walking towards the bar to get a drink as well to cool myself after such a hectic and exhausting day.

Every girl is now gawking at me and trying so hard to get my attention. This is the place where I will be coming mostly after the fights. And as it is nearby, I'll first check this and then go to the others. I have arranged some people to keep monitoring the clubs whenever I'm not available and also Tony.

It Is important for us to keep looking out for our clubs because of our enemies list. Otherwise, they will plan something that will trouble us. Even though no one has the guts to do anything to us, still we should be one step ahead of them.

Not only that, many people try to supply drugs in clubs like these and we strictly prohibited them in our clubs' premises. Shane made sure that no one sells any harmful drugs in NY.

And also if someone wants to meet us without any appointment, they will come to our clubs to ask for a favour or to sign a deal. Mostly they will come for our protection.

I finally reached the bar counter after dancing with girls who asked me on the way for some time. I can't say No to them, right?

"Evening Boss." Jordan, who I appointed as the manager of this club greeted me when he saw me coming.

"Evening, Jordan." I greeted him back while observing the club. "So, everything is fine, right?" I asked him.

"Yes, Boss. Everything is going great and no problems." He said and asked the waiter to pour me my usual drink.

In our newly opened club, Tony, he himself pours drinks to everyone. Because he loves to supply drinks and also he liked that club and maintained everything from the start. He has a thing for clubs and that's why Shane gave it to him as a gift. That's why he is always at the bar counter but still maintains every damn thing even by serving the drinks.

I took the glass which Jordan offered after the waiter gave it to him. "What about the casino?" I asked him while drinking.

"It's doing great as always." He said and I nodded.

"Okay, you can go now," I said and he left for his work.

I turned my chair slightly to my side so that I could see the dance floor while drinking but my eyes were fixed on someone who was drinking at the edge of the counter.

I cocked my head a little to see if that person is who I'm thinking she is. People are blocking my view to see her clearly so I decided to walk towards her to check whether it was her or not.

And finally, I reached her after trying so hard to avoid all the girls on the path. I bent down to her level and pushed her hair back which was covering her face and finally saw her face.

It's her, my guess is right. But why does she look so sad? And when I look at the counter in front of her, there are so many empty glasses in front of her. Which means, she has been drinking for a long time.

But why does she look sad? It doesn't suit her. "Emily?" I called out her name softly and she lifted her head up to see after hearing my voice.

"You…?" She said touching my chest with her index finger.

"Yes, it's me, Rudy." She puffed her cheeks like she is not interested in talking and started drinking again. She looks cute when she does that. "What are you doing here?" well I might have asked a stupid question because she laughed hearing that.

"Don't you know why people come here? Obviously to drink and dance, idiot." She said tapping my head with her finger.

I chuckled and sat next to her, "Well that, I know. But why do you look so sad? And you seem like you have been drinking for a long time. Is something wrong?"

She placed her glass on the counter and turned to my side. Suddenly she clutched my collar and pulled me towards her making me face her gorgeous face so close. She looked into my eyes so deeply making me lost in her beautiful eyes.

Her grey eyes are so beautiful to look into. She didn't even blink once when she is staring into my eyes. It gives me the chance to see how beautiful she is up this close. She looks so hard outside yet looks so innocent when I look into her eyes.

She has a medium to light skin tone and a diamond-defined contour face shape with a beautiful pair of eyes with grey orbs and button shaped round nose. And finally, my eyes drifted off to her lips, damn, her full heart-shaped lips will make every man go crazy. She has natural bright pink coloured lips, she doesn't need lipstick to make them beautiful. They are already beautiful on their own.

Her long dark and beautiful brown wavy hair is trying to irritate her by falling in front of her face again and again by covering her eyes. I pushed her hair back behind her ear and looked into her eyes again. Her eyes look like a magnet to me, attracting me towards her.

I stared into her eyes, staying like that until she throws me back to my chair sighing, "It's your fault. It's all your fault." She said and started drinking again.

My fault? "What are you talking about?" I asked her confusedly.

"Because of your stupid hotel, I lost my job." She said baffling me with her accusations.

"What do you mean?" I asked her.

"Because of your stupid hotel, I had to delay my meeting with the client and because of that, he is not happy and complained to my boss saying that I'm not fit for the job for making him wait and not respecting someone's time. And it's all because of you." She said again touching my chest with her finger tapping on me.

"I'm really sorry for that. Tell me their names and I will personally talk to them." I will personally deal with them giving a peace of my mind.

"What will you do? You can't even run a hotel properly then how can you talk with them?" she said laughing at me.

Seriously? It's not my fault if the system server made a mistake once and that too only for her booking. I don't even know why it happened only to her. "Just tell me, and I'll take care of the rest," I said and she laughed again.

"No need. I don't want to work with someone who doesn't understand me." She said proudly.

"That's great," I said taking the glass from her hand.

She looked at me in confusion as to why I'm taking the glass away from her but it was again replaced with anger. "But I won't forgive you." She said.

"But I said I'm sorry right? Still, you don't want to forgive me? It's not fair." I said drinking from her glass.

"Nope." She said and snatched the glass from my hand gulping the whole drink in one go.

"Hey, slow down." I snatched it away from her but too late she drank it all.

"I want another one." She said to the waiter but I told him not to give her any more.

"You have already had enough and now come I'll drop you off at the hotel," I said helping her to stand but she doesn't listen and clutched the bar counter not moving at all.

"No. I won't come with you. You are a bad boy and because of you I lost my job." She said pouting and asking the waiter again to give her another drink. I indicated to him to go from there and he left.

"I will be a good boy for you. So please come I'll drop you, it's not a good thing to stay here at this time after you have drunk so much." I said again trying to convince her but she is not listening.

"I said no," she screamed and pouted again making a sad face.

"That sad look doesn't look good on your beautiful face. Why don't you wipe it off?" I said and she looked at me in confusion and burst out laughing clutching her stomach.

"Is that a pickup line? If it is then you suck at it." She said still laughing.

If I said a pickup line then girls will come and form a queue now. I just said it to make you laugh and it worked. That's what I want to see, a beautiful smile on your beautiful face. "Laugh at me all you want. But you are coming with me and that's it." I picked her up from there in a bridal style and started walking towards the exit ignoring her attempts of punching me to leave her.

She has been hitting my chest and screaming, "Leave me, idiot. I don't want to come with you."

I ignored all her screams and made her sit in my car after all of her protests. I placed the seat belt around her and went to start the car.

She tried to remove the seat belt but in her drunken state, it looks funny when she tries to open it.

I laughed at her cute attempts and started the car. After screaming for an hour finally she slept in the car like a baby.

Finally, I reached the hotel. I picked her up again carrying her in bridal style. Everyone was looking at us and started whispering about us but I ignored all of them and took her directly to her room which is actually my room.

I told Julie to give my room to her as long as she stays in our hotel even though I told her to book her another room before. I just wanted to make it up to her by giving her my room. So, I called Julie the next day and told her to let her stay in my room.

I placed her on the bed and pulled up the blanket and looked at her beautiful sleepy face again. She is sleeping so peacefully after creating such a mess in the car. She vomited in the car after attempting to open the seat belt. I cleaned her face and asked Julie to change her dress after cleaning her well.

I chuckled remembering everything and left after pecking on her forehead. She is so cute when she is drunk.

I locked the door after leaving and went towards the elevator to go to the penthouse. "I had to send my baby car for washing." I sighed and went to my room and after freshening up, I drifted off to sleep laying on my bed. What an exhausting day but still it makes me happy after seeing her cute smile.
