Love of Possession

(three)

When the lights flash on the stranger face, I can see that he was probably younger than me and he has light blonde hair but I couldn't make sure of it because of the absence of light. I try to move away from him but I didn't take one step further when his rough hand were on my wrist and the other were holding a drink before studying me, eyeing me from my head to toe. The way he licks his lips when he realise how short the dress I was wearing.

I try to pull myself away from his grip but he only hold on to it tighter making me wince in discomfort. "Hey, beautiful. Care about some fun?" The man say as he pull me closer to him and the smell of alcohol in his breath making me step back from him.

He still has his hold on me even when I already taken a few steps back away from him. "Sorry but I really have to go." I protest while trying to get away from him. "Not so fast, beautiful. Where's the fun in it if you're going away. He use his other hand which were suppose to be holding a drink and touch my bosom. He push me further until I feel the hard of the wall on my back.

He grip on my shoulder, harder this time and I try to push him away but suddenly his body was remove from me and when I open my eyes and it's none other than Aiden. Part of me were relieve that he's here but part of me were afraid of him when he glare at me. The dark orbs display were trying to hold back the anger at the scene before him. I quickly avert my gaze away from him and down at my wrist while rubbing over the pain.

"What are you doing?" Aiden ask his voice were so much calmer than I expect him to be. I raise my head to look at the man.

The man shake his head at Aiden before shrugging his shoulders. "We were just having some fun. That's all." He smirk before turning to look over at me. "Aren't we, beautiful?" He ask while winking his eye at me and I move back behind Aiden an attempt to shield myself away from the man.

Aiden step forward and he gently pull me closer to him. There he stand with his broad back in front of me, blocking the man. I look around us as I realise that we were creating a scene in the middle of the club. "It's my wife you're putting your hands on." Aiden says and my head lift up as soon as the words left his mouth.

The man who were touching me, look at Aiden with his eyes open wide. "I'm sorry, Mr Hayes. I-I-I didnt know she's your wife." He stutters and Aiden glares at him as the man stumble on his feet, trying to get away from us. Coward. Everyone goes back on minding their own business and acts like as if nothing happen. When the man has walk away, Aiden turns his head towards me before glaring at me. "Come on." he says grabbing my wrist and pull me out of the club as I follows behind him and we walk straight to his car where we are away from any public eyes or people.

I sees the familiar black car in sight that he drives and he let go of hand before opening the car door for me to get inside. Without any hesitation, I get in quickly so that I wasn't adding any more fuel to his anger. He slams the car door shut and I jumped at the in the car seat. Soon after he climbs right in and ignite the car engine on. Siting beside him, making me feel hot all of sudden. It were as if I could feel his anger radiating and slowly I turn my head to look at him. "Are you mad?" I ask and he didn't even turn to look at me.

When I didn't get any response from him, I lean back into the car seat while looking outside at the window. During the drive, he didn't say anything and once I see that we have reach outside of my house, I unfasten the seat belt and begin to open the car door.

What I didn't expects were the voice that speaks beside me which make me stop every move.

"I'm not mad. Not at you but at the man who touches you." He says and my hand freeze mid air when I hear the words he says filling up every silence in this devoid space. My heart skips a beat hearing it and I don't know how to answers him. "Thank you for sending me home." I says not turning around to look at him. I open the car door and step out of his vehicle.

Pulling the keys from my purse, I push it into the keyhole to open the door. I can still hear the sound of his car engine behind me when I push the door open. I looked down at my wrist and touch at the place he has hold me. It feels as if his touch still lingers there, the warm of his hand on my wrist and how mad he was when the man were trying to take advantage of me.

Shaking my head from these thoughts, I quickly take off my heels and place it to the side before walking up to my room. I switch on the light and flop myself on the bed. I close my eyes remembering the events that happened tonight and the upcoming wedding planning which gives me a headache. My fingers were massaging the side of my head, trying to ease the pain but it didnt help much. I heard my phone vibrate beside me and I pick it up to check the notifications.

Standing up I walk straight to the bathroom to change into my pajamas and get myself ready for bed. Tossing my dress into the laundry basket, I walked out from the bathroom and straight to my bed. Lying my head on the pillow before closing my eyes to sleep.

When I wakes up, the smell of the coffee and toast could be smell from my room. Once I was done with my morning routine, I walk down the stairs and greet both of my parents.

"Morning, honey. Would you like some toast?" Mum asks while her eyes were on the eggs that she's frying.

"It's alright, mum. I can do it myself." I  says and stood beside her while getting myself a glass of water. "Honey, we need to go for wedding dress shopping with Reid's mum this week. So make sure to make yourself free from any plans." She says and I close my eyes when she mentions the word wedding dress and I just nods my head at her.

"Okay. I will make myself available for you." I sips at the water and lean against the counter.

We hear someone knocks on the front door and dad stands up to open it. "I'll go get it." He walks away from the kitchen and towards the living room. I hear dad was talking to someone and I assume it must be one of his friends but when I sees who were walking in with him to the kitchen, my eyes were wide opened.
