Valhalla

Chapter 1

Nayeli's POV

"Nayeli you're late!"

I give him a quick smile before going to change in the back room. I come back and take my station at the front desk, letting him go to his station. Like every day, I was manning the front desk of this cyber cafe. I gave everyone a computer and my colleague took care of giving them the food they ordered. I was in a good position, I could hear all the discussions from where I was, and after all, they made no effort to be discreet.

For some time now, all the talk had been about a certain Asher Reed and a new opus. This Asher was known to have won a competition in the last opus or else I didn't understand anything. Every teenager who came here automatically talked about him and this 50 euro game.

How can you spend so much on something that some of them will finish in less than a week?

I suddenly came out of my thoughts when I saw someone waving his hand in front of my face and I made my usual smile before dealing with the customer. A new one, I had never seen him here before.

"Is everything okay?" He asked me with a smile that was meant to be benevolent.

I nodded my head as I busied myself with getting him a session on a computer.

"Just the effects of Monday morning...Are you here for work or to play?"

"Work...Have you ever thought about modeling?"

I arch an eyebrow at him, surprised to hear that.

"No not really, after all I'm too short." I say with a laugh

He follows my laughter rather quickly, nodding his head.

"You should try it, you are really beautiful."

I look into his eyes smiling softly, not sure if he was just being nice or if he was charming me. People who came here speak to me very little so I'm not used to it.

"Thank you...You have post number 7 by the window..."

He gives me the most adorable smile and then walks over to it, leaving me still puzzled. Strangely his face was familiar but I couldn't figure out where I had seen him before.

──・ʚɞ・──

My end of the day comes rather quickly and I get busy closing the cafe after checking that every session had been turned off. Once outside, I smile when I see my best friend Alexia. If she was there that meant the whole group was planning on going out tonight and I was absolutely ready to follow them.

"Are you coming ?" She asks me as she points to the keys to her motorcycle, her baby.

Seeing me nod her face lights up and I climb in behind her laughing, putting my arms around her waist to hold onto her.

"I wasn't going to give you a choice anyway." She continues, letting out a laugh.

I follow her laughter as I move closer to her.

"I know that" I answer her with an amused smile before she starts and takes the direction of the club where we often went.

Once on the spot, we enter directly and join the rest of the group which starts to shout by seeing us.

"Ah well here you are! Nayeli my beautiful it is seen that you leave the work" launches Bryce, the oldest of the group.

I gave him the middle finger, which made everyone laugh, including him.

As usual, we have a lot of drinks and flirting. None of us took our outings seriously, we just came to have fun with each other and with other people.

After several drinks I start to warm up and see a guy with an incredible physique a little further in a vip room. He was amazing and I couldn't tell if I was imagining him or if he was real. He was dressed all in black, black jeans, black shirt, it was simple but it highlighted his Greek god physique. His hair was dark brown, medium length and it fell slightly over his eyes. We could only see his smirk and it woke up something in me.

I approached him putting my physical assets ahead of me, which was enough to allow me to end up next to him, his friends having let me in among other girls.

He arched an eyebrow as he looked me up and down before giving me the same smile he gave the others.

"Where did you come from? Do you want to sneak off to a room together too?"

At least he could see through my game, this was going to be simple.

"Exactly...And I know it's going to be a night to remember so why waste time?"

I gently leaned in towards him and he did the same, smiling wryly. Our faces were inches apart and I could smell his scent inebriating my nostrils.

Hell, even his smell was attractive.

"Who says I'm going to follow you...?" He asked me with a hint of amusement in his voice.

"Nothing...But nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?" I answer with the same amusement in my voice

He takes my face in his hand, looking at me with a look that I could not describe.

He would have told me to get naked here and now I would have done it.

"Silly girl...come to me when you're sober, then you and I can go have some fun." He said to me in a voice so attractive that I wanted to hear that same voice moan my name.

He winked at me before letting go of my face and getting up, leaving the vip lounge followed by his friends who each had a girl on their arm, leaving me sitting on the couch, my heart pounding.

I had just been turned down by the sexiest man I had ever seen.
