Chapter 55: First meeting

Victoria's POV

''Incredible.'' I whispered to myself.

Brown piercing eyes, full kissable lips, neatly trimmed beards and dark curly hair fit his description so perfectly.

He was almost six feet tall, a nice muscular body that shows he had been doing lots of work out and broad shoulders that fit his body.

''Hey.'' He called my attention in a harsh manner before letting go of my arm.

Shamefully, I cleared my throat and flashed him a warm and nervous smile, but he did not say anything, rather he just stared at my neck for a while and walked away.

''Damn it.'' I released a soft sigh and walked towards the restroom.

I could still feel my heart pounding in fear, and my palms became sweaty at the thought of him.

''Stop this, Vicky.'' I slapped my cheeks and emptied the cup of whiskey before using the restroom.

Few minutes, I came out of the restroom and moved my gaze around, trying to find Jane, but she was nowhere to be found.

Sighing heavily, I walked around the pool while staring at everyone having fun, dancing and chattering happily.

''Hello, why are you still dry and covered up.'' A female voice spoke from behind, and before I could reply, they pushed me into the pool while everyone giggled happily and went on like nothing happened.

''Shit, I can't swim.'' I murmured in fear and struggled to hold my balance in the water, but I was drowning and nobody noticed because they were all tied up in fun.

I kept hitting the water and tried to speak, but no one was paying attention to me, it felt like I was invisible to them, unlike me who was the center of attraction to everyone in Agora Town, but not in a good way.

''Oh Goddess.'' I murmured in panic and wished I could make a mind link. Maybe I would have called out to Jane.

''She is drowning.'' Someone shouted, and I heard splashes of water coming towards me before a hand gripped me out.

I coughed out water while the young guy helped and pulled me to the side of the pool, which wasn't deep.

''Are you okay.'' He asked

''Yeah, thanks.'' I smiled at him and slowly climbed on the stairs that took me out of the pool.

I looked around hoping to see everyone's awkward gaze at me like they always do when I was in Agora, but to my surprise no one was looking my way, they all acted like it was a normal thing and continued having fun.

With my body dripping with water, I left the poolside and took the direction that leads to the restroom and found a less crowded spot.

No one was there, and it felt like no one could see me there.

Slowly, I took off my dress and squeezed out the water from my dress and tried to put it on, but then I saw him standing before me with his eyes roaming all over my half naked body.

''Close your fucking eyes.'' I yelled and quickly put on my dress before moving my gaze to him.

''What on earth are you doing here? Can't you see I was almost naked.'' I yelled, but he didn't move an inch neither did his eyes blink, which I found strange.

''Pervert.'' I yelled,

''Don't you dare call me that.'' He spoke in a low, angry tone, which I found sexy.

''You were supposed to change in the restroom or in a room, not in a corner of a house, when there are over thousand of people partying around.'' He added.

Shamefully, I bite my lips and walked away from him.

I went back to the bar and sat on the stool while I took a cup of whiskey to keep myself warm as I was already shivering with cold.

''God damn it, Jane, where the fuck are you.'' I grumbled in anger and stared around, but there was still no sign of her around.

''A glass of spinach.'' I heard his voice behind me before he sat on the stool beside me.

''Are you stalking me.'' I asked while taking a sip of my drink.

He gave a bitter chuckle before fixing his gaze on me.

''You should never pray for me to stalk you because that will be your worst nightmare.'' He said those words as he stared directly into my eyes, which scared the shit out of me, and I had to look away.

I noticed he took in a long, deep breath and took his gaze away from me.

''Thank you.'' He took the glass of spinach from the bar man and drank everything in it at once ,before dropping the glass on the table.

I noticed a young guy who should be in his early twenties walked up to him and wrapped his hand around his shoulders.

''Come on bro, it's your birthday, and you don't even look like a celebrant.''

''I told you not to throw this party, but you refused.'' He groaned angrily and moved his gaze at me, but I glanced away.

''Shit.'' I whispered to myself. I had no clue this was his party.

''Stop it bro, I have something to cheer you up, I bet she is really tasty.'' The other guy giggled, but he ignored him and fixed his gaze on me, which made me uncomfortable in my seat.

''Here you are. ''Jane hugged me from behind and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek.

''Goodness Jane, where have you been?'' I grumbled angrily and turned to her.

''Calm down sis, I was around.'' She giggled drunkenly and moved her gaze to the strange guy and his buddy.

''Hi.'' She greeted him, but he ignored her while his friend waved at her.

''You guys look hot.'' She giggled drunkenly and tried to move over to them, but I held her to myself.

''You are drunk, let's go home.'' She smiled widely at me and nodded her head in approval.

''Should we do it here.'' She asked with a mischievous smile, which made me understand what she meant.

''No, no, not here.'' I murmured in fear and pulled her along with me before she makes us vanish in front of these people.

As I dragged her along, I felt his piercing gaze on me and I couldn't help but look back, only to meet eyes with him and quickly look away.

Something deep down in me tells me this wasn't the last I'm gonna see him.
