"And you didn't say anything. " I said with a pout as he packed the car not too far from the door.

He had taken me to the infamous Castle. The club was a popular for the rich and wealthy. Normal people like myself never set foot in the place. That's because they never tried. Only hookers and others like that got in. Mostly in rested on you who you were and who you knew. Connections,that's all you needed and I had few. Close to none that would have got me in there.

From what had been going around,the place was a breeding ground for sex and all things horny. Get drunk and the show began. And the men,Oh the men were to die for. They were nothing you had ever seen before or even dared to lay your eyes on. But that could have meant anything. That they were the most horrifyingly ugly people one could dream of seing. That was my vergen of it.

We got out of the car and like every one else we-I stood on the line. A very long line. "You don't have to stand here all night. Waiting to get in just so they can tell you that you can't." He said waving the two invitations in my face. We walked away from the line to the bouncers by the door. The guys were huge...as in muscularly build. The gazes were fixed to one spot. One that I would never try to tell cause even I could tell. They seemed to be focusing on one spot,moving it when someone tried to enter. In that case us. Ethan took a protective stance infront of me as one of the bouncers got closer. I did not mind at all. I was shit scared by the guy.

Like who had that much muscles in they body?

Nick.

I was thinking of the guy again. In situations like this? Are you kidding me.

Ethan showed him the cards or maybe he had gavin' them to him. I was not sure. I had stopped focusing when the bouncer raised his arm. I was sure he was about to either beat the crap out of Ethan or tell him 'nicely' to back off.

He spoke something into his phone like thingy and let us in soon after but bot without offering me a death glare.

"How did you say you got those invitations again." I asked under the loud music that was playing. "I got them from a friend." I could barely hear him. A random girl pushed me,making me hit the wall. She was drunk so I didn't push it. Not that I would fight but I would surely defend and protect.

"This place is packed with rich people and you tell me that you got those," I attempted to point at the invites that had been in his hands earlier before we got in but they were gone. He must have gave them to that guy. "From a friend? They must be one really unique human being." I said the sarcasm sipping through my teeth.

He ignore my remarks and went further into the club.

I thought cops didn't go to this kind of places.

I called Anastasia and she answered on the fourth ring.

"Hello?"

"Anastasia speaking."

"Were are you?"

"At the house. Did you forget something sweet?"

"No,I just wanted to invite you somewhere that's all."

"Where?"

"You know that club that opened not so long ago?"

"The Castle?"

"Yeah,That one. Well I came with Ethan and I'm pretty sure he will forget about me in a matter of minutes. So I need you to keep me company."

She kept quiet. "Hello? Are you still there? Ana!"

"Um...I'm still here." I released a breath as relieve washed over me. I actually thought she was gone,as hang up or something. "So,are you in?" I heard some shuffling in the background. "Sorry love but I can't make it tonight. I promised to go to my man tonight."

"Oh." I understood her,a little. She was so inlove and still took days without seing her boyfriend. If I were her I don't think I would have coped.

"Sorry love,maybe next time."

"Don't worry about it. Enjoy yourself love and tell him I said hello. Bye." I said then hang up the phone. The club was packed. The dance floor was full of people dancing and swaying their hips like they didn't care. I envied them. They knew how to dance. Well they didn't care of who was looking and who was saying what. It was just them,the dance floor and the music. The only things that mattered.

I frantically searched the place looking for Ethan. And like I had thought,he was talking to a blonde haired girl on one of those VIP sections. I didn't care to look any further,I had found what I was looking for. I went to the bar and ordered two shorts to get rid of the nerves. Places like this made me stiff,in a way. The bar tender,a cute guy with brown hair placed them infront of me. He looked to be in his mid twenties. "Thank you." I said smiling kindly at him and quickly downed the first. It burned my throat a little,but it was bearable.

I looked to my left to find a guy with messy hair seating in the chair nest to mine. He was looking at me. Choosing to ignore him,I downed the second one in a go and ordered more but the guy said something to bartender that nodded slightly. "What the neck man?!" I said directing to the guy seated next to me and he raised a brow . "You shouldn't from that much,Plus you have already had two." He said sincerely. My body relaxed a little. Ok a lot.

"And who are You?" I asked straightening my back. "Your protector." I laughed at him playing with one on the little glasses that once had a drink in them. "Ok 'protector' nice to meet you. I'm you guardian angel." He cocked a brow and smirked. He had green beautiful eyes. Not as enchanting as Nick's but still beautiful. "You have beautiful eyes." I blurted out leaning closer. Our face were inches away from each other and lips so close that we would have kissed if I moved a little.

Great! Now I'm thinking of kissing a stranger. I wonder how his lips taste. Stop it. I really did have too much.

"Um..sorry about that." I said as I withdrew. "I am really sorry about that. Now I just made things awkward between us." I said in embarrassment. My voice barely audible at the last part. He laughed. "Don't worry about it. It happens all the time. No need to apologize. " I looked at him quizzical. "Like women throw themselves at you all the time?" I was bewildered. "Not that." He laughed nervously. "They say my eyes..." I cut him off. "Oh,I get it now. Let me leave you and go." I got off the chair, almost falling but he caught me before I could.

Curse this people for making this chair so high.

"Thanks." I said regaining my balance. His touch kind of burned me. It felt like something was pricking me with a niddle of something. I straighten my dress and walked to the dance floor looking back at the guy to find him looking straight at me. I was drunk enough to not care who was looking or if I was embarrassing myself. I danced to my heart content. Swaying my hips to the music as it played. I even felt a few guys grab me by the waist and moved with me. I didn't care. I wanted to enjoy myself not cause a fight.

I went back to the chairs to rest and regain some energy. The resting part was ruined by an ex of five months. We did not break up on good terms him and I. I broke up with him cause he had began to clingy and controlling. "Hey stranger. " Sam said taking a seat. I turned to my left,were he was seating. "Hi Sam." I said a baritone before ordering a glass of water to take out my high. "How have you been doing?"

Small talk.

I laughed to myself. A humorless laugh.

Of course the guy would try to make small talk with me. He was a certified psychopath.

"I've been doing great." I said in a bored voice. The water came and I downed it quickly. I really had to get away from the guy. He grabbed my wrist as I walked away.

"I can't stop thinking about you. I can't bring myself to get away from You. To get over you. I love you,Scarlett." I looked at the hand on my wrist then at him,telling him silently to let me go and he did.

"Been there,done that and I ain't going back. By the way I didn't think about you. I never thought about you. I am over you and now I'm walking away from you." I said firstly taking small steps away from him tell full on walked away to the dance floor.

Ethan came to me,I don't know after how long,pulling me from the dance floor. "I was busy." I whined waving to the guy I had been dancing with. I had stopped most of them from touching cause it had gotten to point were every time they did,it hurt. So touchy-touchy was not there. "With him?" He said pointing at the guy. I couldn't even see him clearly due to how fast we were pushing against the crowd. He had vanished into it. "Yes with him and now I can't even see him." I said poking his chest built of pure muscle. Like Nick,he had all the 'ceps'. His body was toned. Yes,I had checked him out before.

A few minutes after him trying to get me to go and seat with him on the VIP lounge and me refusing everytime. I excused myself with the excuse that I had to per and I really had to pee. The was not much of a line in the toilets but I did have to wait for someone to get out. A girl around my age and she looked more drunk than I was at that moment. Her feet kept crossing when she walked.

And here I was thinking I was wasted.

I took my time,my precious time as they was no one else in there with me. I was standing at one of the vanities when someone budged in,nearly breaking the poor thing from it's hinges. It was not a woman,but a man. A tall man that looked familiar.

Sam?! What the he'll is he doing in here?

It was the same guy that Ethan had pulled me from earlier. "This is the ladies room. You are not allowed in here. The men's room is on the other side." I told him thinking he had somehow gotten lost and ended up on the wrong side. Turning my back to him,I leaned on the sinks and turned on the water to wash my hands. One hand snaked it's way on my belly from my waist while the other was placed firmly on my butt. Mt heart was pounding in my chest. I could barely hear myself breath.

"What the hell are you doing?" I said trying to turn but he kept me in place. His hand went further done to my thigh. "Help! Help me!" I screamed at the top my lungs. "Hel-" I tried again but he put one of his hands,the one that had been on my belly,to my mouth. The only thing I would do was wish that someone heard me,albeit I highly doubted it. The loud had muffled my screams of help.

"No one can hear you. What did you think would happen when you kept rubbing that juicy ass of yours on my dick? You whore." He whispered seductively into my ear.

The name calling was also one of the reasons we broke up. He did that everytime we had a disagreement or fought.

I was officially grossed out. I wanted to hurl,puke,anything. This guy wreaked of alcohol and his breath was worse than mine.

He kissed the side of my head and sucked on my earlobe. I remember once apon a time when it drove me crazy everytime he kissed me like that. But this time tge only thing I felt was disgust and pain that came from his touch was unbearable. I wanted to cry out in pain.

One thing was clear now. Fight or hat raped. I didn't wanna get raped. I didn't save it all this years just so some psycho ex-boyfriend could take it.

Noway in hell.

He continued to kiss and suck on my skin. I made a mental note that after I got out of hear,I was gonna scrub and peel all the filth that he felt on me.

The hand on my thigh caressed my skin. It was not what I had dreamed of. That soft touch,those passionate kisses. It was not that. They were rushed,Like he was in a hurry to get to my pussy.

He tore the lower part or the dress and muttered something about my ass under his breath. Something close to me having a nice ass. Half of my ass was out,showing the thin piece of cloth I was wearing to cover myself. It got real. Do or die.

I squeezed my thighs together,trapping his hand.

Thank God he didn't trap my legs.

He easily got his hand out and slapped my ass chick and it stung real bad.

"Ouch!" I cried in pain as his hand made the impact. The tears had become an endless river on my face. He forcefully pushed his leg inbetween my own,giving himself enough excess to do what ever he pleased. I was not gonna go down like that. Not without a fight. I was not raised took a that,to back down? No.

I pushed the heel of my shoe to hit him. And it landed the place I only wished,His crotch. I didn't think it would even land there due to the position of one of his legs. He stumbled back and I got the little piece of freedom I desperately wanted and needed. But I was till trapped in the toilet with him.

I made an attempt to run to the door and hopefully get out.

"Help! Nick Help!" I said the name of the first person u could think of.

What the- why is it the first person that came to my mind.

"Ethan!"

And just when I thought I was a gonner,the door flew open. The person had kicked it open. He was broad and muscular and tall and Nick.

Wait What?! Nick? What is he doing here?

He whispered something on the lines of "get out of here.", but I was stuck. Stuck were I stood,so I watched in horror as Nick beat the guy to a pulp and a left him with a stern warning. I was not petrified by how brutal the beating was, I was relieved. Relieved that he had come in when he did. That he had saved me and that I still had my dignity intact.

"Are you Ok?" His voice was sweet and soft and low. " I'm alright." I said, frantically nodding my head.

"No one touches my mate except me." He said under his breath as I leaned into his chest. It felt like home.

It was over. I owned him my life,everything. Who knows what would have happened had he not arrived when he did.

"You don't owe me anything." He said in the the most soft and sweetest voice. I smiled to my myself. He was the guy that saved me,Nick.
