True Love
(Book 4) – Chapter 133

A young man approached her, taking her out of her thoughts, she took the opportunity to order a cold tea, the truth is that she didn’t like to drink, and a tea at that time of the night would be perfect for her. It was inevitable not to look at the Greek with the brunette, but why did it bother him so much? Suddenly he looked up and saw her, their eyes connected and he got a smile of happiness for having seen her sitting there. If he knew she felt like running away, but she had already asked for the order and she wouldn’t run away just because he was there flirting with someone else. She looked away, ignoring him completely, until she imagined he realised that he wasn’t alone. And that she had caught him.

She watched as he pulled the brunette away from her and dismissed her, but not before she noticed the looks they were giving each other. Which provoked an unfavourable reaction on the woman’s face, because she seemed to want to kill her, great now she had made an enemy on that island! And why the hell wasn’t her tea arriving? At least she would be entertained with something.

The woman entered the restaurant while he kept an eye on her, she tried to ignore her but as she did so her eyes instinctively went to Antoni’s table who was also watching her like a hawk. After a short time of waiting, her tea had arrived and she couldn’t believe it, it was the waitress who had taken it!

-Here is your order. She says in an annoyed tone.

-Thank you. He said unkindly.

-A real stud, isn’t he? The woman pointed her chin in Antoni’s direction.

-I don’t know what you’re talking about. He answered, playing it down.

-Well, I certify it, and half the island does too.

Andromeda was more furious than when she arrived, with an endless desire to grab the woman’s hair and shake her all over the island for being so stupid and nosy. Wait a minute, she was what, jealous? He laughed to himself, it was absurd, he barely knew the Greek to get like this.

Her tea was over in just a few minutes, and the young man approached her again, giving her reason to suspect that the brunette had only come to annoy her. She was fed up, so she ordered a drink with plenty of alcohol in it.

-These drinks are more than good. She talks to herself.

Sipping the last drops of the sweet liquid from her glass through the straw, with that one she had three cocktails and felt wonderful, of course with her cheeks burning, and her ears boiling but very relaxed and happy, the rage had vanished. The drinks they served in that place were miraculous.

-You’ve had too much to drink, beautiful. The Greek stood before her.

-Who the hell are you calling beautiful? His voice was pasty and a little clumsy.

-Come on, I’ll take you home. Demand.

-Who are you to say anything to me? Get out of here, I don’t need you. She scowled at him.

He sat down next to her, taking the empty cup from her hands. He pushed it aside, but the girl drunkenly tried to take it from his hands.

-I’ve been watching you, and I think I’ve had enough. She speaks in a hard voice.

-Well you know sir, leave me alone, and go back to your table with your hairy brunette ok.

-Are you, jealous? I ask amused with a smile on my lips.

-For you never, don’t get your hopes up, now go away, and leave me alone. I don’t know why I always replace you everywhere, what a nightmare. He waved his hand at her.

-It’s a small island, besides, this is my restaurant.

-What? This is unbelievable. She said laying her head on the table, she was dizzy but also very excited.

-Come on, tell me where you live and I’ll take you there.

She looked at him very suspiciously, she was irritated and drunk, she didn’t want anything to do with him, suddenly the brunette appeared on the scene wiggling like a slut. Which pissed her off even more than she already was.

-Toni honey, do you want me to pour you another drink at your table?

-You see, back to your Toni. She said sarcastically.

-Catrina, please leave now. He ordered her without even looking at her.

His tone was authoritarian, if he really was her boss, then he was one of the evil ones, because even she was afraid.

-Well Andromeda, we’re leaving. The Greek stood up.

-Nooooo! I don’t want to go anywhere with you, go with that tart.

She called out to the young man who had been waiting on her that night, the boy approached a little apprehensive since his boss was at the same table.

-Would you like to order something?

-Yes, I uh…

-No, she doesn’t want anything else, thank you, you may leave. Everything the lady consumed is on me.

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

-Now you’re going to control me?

The Greek man took her by the arm with great care, but she resisted, Antoni’s strength and stature gave him the advantage to take her like a rag doll. He grabbed her by the waist, dragging her away, while she insulted him and hit him. He was making it very difficult for her.

-Let go of me Antoni, what do you think you are doing? You don’t even know where you’re going.

-I’m taking you home. Wherever you’re living.

-You don’t know where I live. His voice sounded more and more pasty. -And I won’t tell you.

-You need a good cup of coffee and a cold bath.

-What I need is for you to let me go now. I yell at her.

He couldn’t walk with her in that state, so he carried her on his shoulder, fireman style, all the way to his car and shoved her into it as best he could. She was out of control, jumping around, jumping up and down, hitting him. It was kind of funny to see her like that because she was angry and jealous of Catrina and he really liked that, why deny something like that.

-Now give me your home address. He said from the other side of the driver’s seat.

-I’m not telling you anything, a*****e. She threw herself on top of him, trying to tear off his clothes.

But he held her by the waist as he sat her on his lap, leaving her just inches away from him. They were in the crowded street, but she didn’t care about that, she was only interested in having this woman this close.

-Hey, don’t do that, it’s not good! Not for you.

-Why? He said smiling very close to her face.

-What are you doing? Don’t try to play with me, cutie, because you’ll lose in this game.

Their breathing was agitated, she smiled a little almost on his lips, he tried to k**s her but from one moment to the other she was passed out on his shoulder, what the hell happened to her? She had fallen asleep at such a crucial moment, and he was so excited. Without any other choice, he put her in the passenger seat and started the car with a big smile on his lips.

One lap, two laps and three laps… She didn’t remember that her bed was so big. Half asleep, half dizzy, her headache was sky high and her stomach was screaming for her to expel everything that was in it. What had she done? What had happened?

The last thing she remembered was that she had ordered some drinks and that she was furious with Antoni, but that was all. She sat up a little and everything around her was completely different from her room, where was she? The bed was huge, it could fit at least five people. The decor was simple but elegant, very Greek.

-Damn, my drinks are gone! She ran her hands through her hair in anguish, at least she was wearing her dress.

The door opened before her, through it Antoni appeared with a tray full of fruit and juice, and where did he come from? Her mind asked.

-You’re awake, beautiful. He greeted her with a radiant smile on his lips.

-Where am I? Why are you with me? What has happened?

-That’s a lot of questions. He smiles. – You are in my house!

-What?! -What the f**k happened last night?

-Well, you got drunk, you went crazy with jealousy, you passed out and I had to bring you to my house. -Well, you got drunk, you went crazy with jealousy, you passed out and I had to bring you to my house.

-Jealousy? -What are you talking about?

-I swear I’m telling the truth. I brought you breakfast. How do you feel?

-What do you mean, jealous? She asked again incredulously.

-Well, you made a fuss over my employee, Catrina.

When she heard the woman’s name, she remembered that she had broken into the table where they were just to annoy her during the night. She got out of bed in a rage again to lock herself in the bathroom.

Catrina, Catrina, she repeated under her breath… The brunette with endless curves, why was she angry? Was she really jealous? She placed her hands on both sides of the washbasin as she looked at herself in the mirror, how awful she looked.

She had honestly had one too many drinks the night before, she would have been left with cold tea… she promised herself she would never drink again. They brought out the worst in her.
