Coraline’s POV.
“I can swear that man is my husband!!!” I screamed as the officers dragged me away.
Gabriel just stood watching them drag me away with a small smile playing on his lips.
“Please… you are causing a nuisance whatever you say will be said against you in the court of law.” The airport security said with a hint of disgust playing on her face.
I knew there was no way out, I was too broke to even afford a freaking lawyer. Where exactly did Gabriel want me to start from?
“Ummm Coraline, you can now give us your statement. How do you claim to know Mr. Gabriel?” I faced the officer with a flat look because there was nothing I wanted to say again that would make them believe me.
“I have nothing to say.”
The officer stood up and slapped me across the face. I only smiled and spat on her.
She slapped me again.
“You are just a dirty drug abuser. You can’t even smuggle drugs properly” she grabbed me by my ponytail.
“Take a look at the stash of drugs in front of you. Are you proud of yourself?” I didn’t reply to her.
If there was anything Gabriel taught me ...it was how to lie.
“Coraline…” I heard a voice call out. I looked around but it was just the officer and I.
“Coraline, wake up!” The image before me began distorting.
I jolted up and found a sleepy Judy by my side.
“You were sweating and shaking…” she drawled out a bit checking me for any form of self inflicted injuries.
“What’s the time Judy?” I stood up from the bed to get a glass of water.
“6:30pm.”
“I guess being in jail for 5 years does a number on you.” I shrugged, I was quite indifferent about it.
But pity was evident on Judy’s face.
“You know what, call Nicholas, we are going out today. I feel like getting drunk.” A smile crept up Judy’s face and I chuckled.
I had just left prison a few days ago. It was still early January, my time was meant to last till December of this year but I was released with Judy on account of good behavior so why not celebrate?
Nicholas on the other hand was my brother and he has been quite helpful while I was in prison.
“He said he’s on his way.” Judy screamed from the room.
“LET’S GO CELEBRATE!!!!” I screamed.
Judy decided on a black dress which complimented her skin so well and the hints of gold jewelries made her look ethereal.
I went with a red dress. Red was my colour and I stuck with it.
“Hii, Nic.” I said as I got into the front seat of his car.
“What’s up little sis…Hii Judy…” I ignored his greeting because I had free will.
“3 clubs or ??? What's the plan like?”
“As the spirit leads.” I replied.
We got to our first stop.
It was just 11:30pm so the clubs weren’t that busy.
“So girls here are your rules…” Nicholas started and I just rolled my eyes.
“1. No collecting drinks from random strangers.
2. No following random strangers home…” he paused and shot me a look.
“And finally be with your phone at all times.” Judy just chuckled and disappeared. She was always the first to leave.
“You’re with your gun right?” I gave him an irritated look.
“Why should that be a question?” I deadpanned.
“Just making sure, you’re free to follow whoever home but if you unalive anyone please don’t get caught.” He assessed me a bit.
“Prison doesn’t look good on you.” I only chuckled because he knew I was incapable of killing anyone.
“Nic get over…” I turned and bro was gone.
I guess it was me and myself tonight.
The music was blaring, sweating bodies were against each other but I was in need of a sexual tension and I laid my eyes on the section that was going to give me just that.
The VVIP.
I discreetly moved towards that end and started dancing. The alcohol had loosened me up, so I didn’t really care about anything but the blue eyed man I had just locked eyes with.
In the dim lights I could make out the little smile that played on his lips.
I moved my body to the rhythm of the song and just when I thought I was done the dj played Call out my name by the weekend.
I moved my waist slowly and let the lights cast over my body, completely lost in the song I had forgotten about the guy I was playing eye games with.
“Has anyone told you that red is your colour?” I only smiled as I turned around to be met with my blue eyed stranger.
“And has anyone told you blue goes so well with red?” That earned me a hearty chuckle from him.
“Are you flirting with me?” I smirked and turned my back to him, grinding on him slowly and gently.
He groaned, I smiled.
“Are you dancing with me? Since we are asking obvious questions now.”
The song had changed a long time ago and I didn’t take note of which song was playing but what I did take note of was this man’s hand on my waist and the kisses he was leaving on my neck.
“Look at me princess.”
I turned around to face him, the way he said princess made my knees weak.
“Can I kiss you?” The intensity in his eyes grew by the passing second.
I didn’t answer him. I grabbed him by his shirt collar and kissed him.
He didn’t allow me to dominate for so long but I refused to let him in my mouth so he grabbed my ass and that made me gasp.
He used his free hand to make his way to my thighs, but I held his hand.
“No pussy for you stranger.” He only smirked.
“You’re blunt, I like that.”
He made his way into my mouth. Not aggressively in fact he was way too gentle like he was scared to hurt me.
He stopped so that we could get air. His pupils had dilated and it was a bit darker. He looked like he was restricting himself.
The bulge in his pants was quite visible and that made me wonder why he was being delicate with me. I don’t do delicate things.
As he was about to kiss me again his phone rang.
I looked at it and he looked instantly irritated.
“I’m sorry, I’ve gotta go.” He pecked me quickly and left.
No name, no number, no address.
He was gone.
