*the day of the yacht party*

I was driving back home when my phone started ringing, and the traffic light had turned red, I picked it up and rolled my eyes when I saw the called ID

Father

I pressed the green button, and put it on loud speaker

"What do you want?" I said

"Ah always so friendly son, best greetings" he sarcastically replied

"Whatever, what do you want?"

"I'm hosting a party tonight, on my new yacht, and I expect you to come, lots of beautiful rich girls will be here, from the finest and filthiest families" he laughed

"Not interested, especially that fake gold diggers will be attending, I disgust them father" I was starting to get really annoyed with this conversation, my father wants me to finally find a great woman and to settle in instead of having one night stands, and he thinks that a woman will help me be more successful.. How does that even make any sense?

The light turned green and I moved again, I heard my dad sigh from the other end of the line

"Son, I invited the Lockwoods, believe me there's this girl in the family, she's the only child! She's even close to your age, isn't that great?" He said hopefully, and I felt slight guilt and didn't want to ruin his hopeful mood although I don't really love him, so I decided to act interested

"Aha.. And what does she look like?" I asked

I won't deny that I'm slightly interested, but it's definitely not because I want to "settle in".. Perhaps she'll be a good f*ck

"I have her picture!! I'll text it to you right away!!" He was way too excited.. My dad is a perky man

Every time I decide to at least being civil with him I remember my mother and how he just let her die and married another woman a year later

I'll never forgive him

My grip at the steering wheel tightened as I thought of mother,

I instantly hung up the phone, I didn't want to hear his voice anymore

A minute later I had received a text, i knew it was from him, I grabbed my phone and opened it, he attached a picture, I clicked it and was taken aback by the beauty

This girl.. She's gorgeous.. So angelic and adorable

I noticed he captioned the picture with "Adriana Lockwood"

Ahh.. Adriana

Well guess I'm attending that party after all..

~~~~~~~

I had just parked in the yacht when my phone buzzed in my pocket, I grabbed it and noticed it was a text message from Felipe, that coward.. He must be still begging me asking for my forgiveness, what he didn't know is that he'll die tonight, nobody messes with me and gets away with it alive

I slid it back to my pocket and started making my way up to the deck

"Master Noah!! Here here have a drink!" one of the waiters instantly greeted me, I shrugged and took a glass from the silver tray he was holding, I noticed women already glancing at me and gossiping with women seated next to them

Ah the usual..

I took a sip of the drink and looked at the surrounding

"Son! I'm Happy oh so happy that you came!! Too many beautiful women! Fun fun night" my father's voice filled my ears, I looked behind me and found him grinning.. Annoying man

"I didn't come here for you" I muttered with annoyance and he nodded

"I'm aware... Here for the lovely ladies eh?" He winked

Ladies.. I only came here for her

"Where is she?" I asked nonchalantly didn't want to seem too thrilled for meeting a girl

"Adriana? I'm afraid haven't arrived yet! But let me tell you something, if you manage to sweep her off her feet we get money, lots of money, consider this business!"

"Business?"

Of course he only thinks of his money, he uses everyone for money, greedy man

"Yes business! You see son love gets you nowhere, i didn't love your mother, it was all for business so look where I am today because of that! The only thing I have love for is this yacht-" my fist connected with his

jaw making him shut it, I then grabbed his neck and pushed him closer to me

"Don't you ever fucking mention mi madre (my mom) again, you pathetic old joke" I said coldly and he seemed intimidated

"Okay but calm down hijo (son).. lo siento (I'm sorry)" he said silently and tried removing my hands

Coward

I let go and he fixed his suit

"Well I must say-" he started but he stopped talking and grinned widely as he looked at something behind me

"What?" I snapped

"She's here, the princesa" he said and I turned around confusedly but then I saw her

Someone so different, so unique, she wasn't like all the women here, she stole the spotlight

That goddamn body of hers.. So tempting

"muy hermosa"

Father patted my shoulder "I told you, now want to be a successful man? There's your chance"

A successful man? I already am more successful than him

Nonsense

Yes she is quite gorgeous but that doesn't mean I want to settle in, maybe a one night stand will help me cool off from the stress of work

I noticed father went and greeted them,

I watched her as she moved to her table, and instantly dug in the food

I love women with big appetite

I felt something pat my back, I turned around and raised my brow slightly in annoyance when I saw a petite figure standing with a smile on her face, I eyed her up & down and noticed her arched back

So unhealthy

"You don't want to break your back bella, so stop arching too hard" I winked and her mouth fell ajar as she scurried away without saying anything, I rolled my eyes and turned my attention back to Adriana

Time to have some fun

I stood above her, she didn't even notice my presence, lost in the plate of food in front of her

I coughed in an attempt to grab her attention..

What am I even doing? Trying to grab a woman's attention?

She looked up with a frustrated look on her face, her eyes traveled along my face, she seemed so fazed, it faded soon and she seemed lost for words, she must've realized that because her cheeks turned slightly red

Ha typical..

"Hola!" She smiled and stuck her hand out for a handshake

"Hola bella" I said and shook her hand

Her facial expressions were so amusing right now

"Adriana Si?" I asked

"Oui!" She instantly said and her face dropped from embarrassment

Cute

"Uh..I mean Si.. Haha.. You're Noah Si?" She tried fixing it, wait she also knows about me..

So this means her mother or my father have told her about me and god knows what they've filled her mind with.. Maybe she's just another gold digger.. But I'll pretty much enjoy this

"Oui" I winked and she smiled once she realized what I had just done

A new voice joined our conversation and anger clicked

"Go go dance you beautiful birds!" Father said in a sing sung tone

I knew exactly what he had in mind, and his words repeated in my mind..

I glared at him but tried to hide it when Adriana looked at me, I forced a smile and looked at her

"Me permites este baile?" I asked and she nodded, I took her hand and guided her to the dance floor

I grabbed her by her waist and pulled her closer to me, her smell was intoxicating

I could tell she was so easily affected, meh

She moved away a bit and placed her hands on my shoulders as we moved in sync .. I noticed my dad watching us, he must be thinking that he won and I'll do what he told me about

Anger filled me when I thought about mother and how he used her for business, I wasn't like him, so the only way to ruin this was to actually tell bubblehead over here the truth, and pull her out of her dreams

I leaned in closely and whispered in her ear "you are beautiful.. But you should know that all this is an act.. I'm not really interested in you, I've seen a ton of girls like you.. But my dad is forcing me to do this.. Not because he likes you or anything but it's all for the family business and money.. So don't flatter yourself too much, don't forget to smile" I moved back and noticed her shocked look, now she'll probably run away crying like every other girl

She took me in surprise when she leaned in and whispered back "Don't flatter yourself either pretty boy, I'm surrounded by people like you, they're called f*ckboys, so trust me I'm not interested.. My mom forced me to come here. You aren't exactly, how do I say this.. Special" she moved away and dropped her hands to her side

That's a new one

"Aye feisty ain't we tigresa?" I smirked and she rolled her eyes and averted her attention to something else meanwhile I was watching her amusedly

She suddenly snapped "WHAT?!"

Anger issues

"I've known you for what? 5 minutes? And I have already unraveled your whole personality, trust me on this.. You need a therapist" I said and her eyes widened with shocker

"Who put a stick so far up your ass? You're so annoying and I don't need to know you to know why your dad also wants you to settle with someone, it's not for the money, but it's obvious that you're a pathetic loner & a sadist" she spat

Her words clicked and flickered anger inside of me, first woman to ever disrespect me like this, worst part is it her words were almost all true

She was turning to leave when I instantly grabbed her by her upper arm and threw her backwards till she hit my chest

"OUCH!" She scolded, but once she looked up at me fear took over her, just like them all

"Listen up bitch baby, I told you I'm familiar with girls like you, I f*ck one each night, and if you honestly think I'm a loner then do I need to remind you of when you were checking me out like few minutes ago? Girls Die for this, you can consider yourself lucky, I've never spoken to a girl for longer than five minutes, they all want to be f*cked and I bet you're just like them, you have mommy issues and you seem like the loner here, now dare to say another word and I promise you, that little tongue of yours will be chopped, don't mess with me or disrespect me." I warned and my grip around her arm tightened with anger, she started shivering with fear, she didn't utter any other word, that's when I realised that I won

"Now leave, I don't like the view anymore" I ordered and let go of her, she nodded and slowly moved away

Puta

~*~

"Son what have you done?! I told you she'll be a good source for money!" Father scolded me, I took another shot of liquor and continued on ignoring him

"Fine! Be like this, the reason you're a complete fiasco, the reason your mother didn't have a good enough reason to live, you live to disappoint people" I let his words sink in, the way he said them, he knew how my reaction would be, did he have a death wish?!

"Say one more word and you'll be dead within a second, leave me the fuck alone, I think we both know who the real murderer is, the reason my mother died" my words laced with loath and hatred, he let out a chuckle and slowly backed away and disappeared

Fuck him

My phone vibrated again, for the 100th time

I picked up "WHAT ENZO WHAT?"

"Master, Felipe wants to say one last thing to you before we kill him, are you interested?"

"Give him the damn phone"

"Master Noah, please I beg of you, let me prove my loyalty to you, I'll do anything but please let me live" Felipe desperately begged

"No, I don't need anything from you"

I hung up and threw the phone on the counter and ordered another shot

I chugged it down quickly, why isn't this fucking alcohol doing its magic

It's all because of him, my father won't get away with this, I'll find a way to torture him-

His words from our earlier conversation popped in my mind

"the only thing that I have love for is this yacht"

An idea flashed in my head and I smirked

But I'll be the first suspect..

I instantly grabbed my phone and dialled Enzo's number

"Sí?" He answered after the first ring

"Have you killed him yet?!"

"No but-" I cut him off

"Don't, give him the phone I have an offer for him" I said and a moment later I heard Felipe's voice "I'd do anything"

Perfect

I'd kill Felipe him right after he finishes the mission

Nobody will know

Father has a lot of enemies they won't figure out that it was me

I wasn't scared though

I got up and decided it's time to leave and let things take place
