Boss Lady #3: Gold's Impurity

VI. Soft

"WHAT the fuck, Vaughn?!"

Gold hastily pulled her wrist away from his tight grip and gave him a glare.

"Ano bang ginagawa mo? Why did you pull me out of the club?!" sunod sunod niyang tanong sa binata.

Gold was literally cockblocked by the same man she has been chasing for more than a month now. Yes, the same man who caused her not to be with anyone—except tonight—ever since she decided to pursue him because Gold only has the hots for him.

Kung kailan talaga nag-decide siyang lumandi muna sa iba dahil tigang na tigang na siya?! Gold really was fuming mad at Vaughn.

"That motherfucker put his hands all over you, Gold!" Vaughn exclaimed. "Fuck! His hands even groped your tits and you were too drunk to push him away, so I decided to get you out of there."

"Huh?! What the heck are you talking about?!"

Vaughn looked at her as if she had suddenly grown another head. "That son of a bitch was sexually harassing you, Gold. Look, I don't want to make a big deal out of this. Can't you just be thankful I saved you from that asshole?"

Sa kabila ng galit na nararamdaman dahil sa pagkabitin, hindi mapigilan ng dalaga na tumawa nang tumawa dahil sa narinig mula sa binata.

He really thought she was being touched without her consent. Holy hell.

Gold stepped forward to get closer to him and smirked.

"Concerned ka talaga, architect?" tudyo niya sa binata.

Vaughn's eyes were still locked with hers. "Of course. I'm a decent man with good manners, Gold. I'm not gonna turn a fucking blind eye when I see someone being harassed."

"I'm sorry if you misread the situation but I wasn't being harassed, Vaughn," Gold admitted. "Adrian's with me. That's the guy who was groping my tits. Well, not until you interrupted and took me here."

Biglang umiwas ng tingin ang binata, mukhang nahiya siguro ito sa ginawa. Hindi rin naman niya masisisi si Vaughn sa ginawa nito dahil kahit sinong matinong lalaki ay gagawin din ang tumulong sa ibang nasa delikadong sitwasyon.

Kaso nga lang, hindi naman nasa delikadong sitwasyon ang dalaga.

"I'm sorry, Gold. I really thought..." Vaughn said, his eyes still diverted. "Nakita ko lang na hinahawakan ka niya when I arrived with my friends. I just saw red and immediately decided to get you out."

Gold held his jaw to shift his gaze back to hers. "Apology accepted, architect. I appreciate your concern too. Not all men would do that so I really appreciate it."

"Does it hurt?" Vaughn asked as he looked at her wrist. The same wrist he gripped when he pulled her out of the club.

"Hindi naman. I'm okay, actually. Just a bit intoxicated," sagot niya rito. "Bitin nga lang ako, though. Ikaw kasi eh."

"Bitin? What do you mean?"

Gold smirked at him and moved closer so her body is directly on Vaughn's

"You know, I was supposed to go and hook up with Adrian tonight because I've been deprived of sex for weeks now, architect," Gold whispered, her lips close to his. "Kaso nabitin ako dahil sa ginawa mo. What can you do about that, hmm?"

"Gold..."

"Wanna have me for tonight, architect?" she teased. "Just say 'yes'."

Vaughn suddenly held her waist and gripped her there. "Gold... let me take you home. Itulog mo na 'yan."
