Greece.

"This one looks lovely on you, babe." Ada said as she waltzed past Vittoria in their suite.

Vittoria looked at herself in the mirror, the red dress she had donned on was something she wouldn't dare wear back home, but here she felt a little bolder and a whole lot freer.

"Looking sexy, amor." Gianni exclaimed walking out of her room, in a bathrobe and a silver dress in hand. "I'm going to get ready in 10 minutes."

"we will see about that." Vittoria said mischievously, as she combed her hair.

"Fuck yeah!" Gianni said as she ran down the corridor towards the bathroom.

Vittoria, Gianni and Ada were celebrating their first international trip-- something they had been planning for a long time. It was their final day in Greece, they had had an absolute blast the past four days in Greece and now they had one last night.

Someone knocked on the door.

"can you check who's it, Vittoria?" Ada asked from the room inside.

"Yup." Vittoria said as she headed towards the door.

"Surprise baby."

It was Ari, holding a bouquet of flowers. 

Vittoria gasped as he pulled her into an embrace, and twirled her around.

"What a surprise!" Vittoria said, dumbfounded. This was meant to be a girls trip, and the only cardinal rule was-no boys, and here was one. 

"I know, love, I missed you so much. you look beautiful." Ari said with a grin. "Oh Ari!" Gianni said with fake enthusiasm. "You really can't live without your girlfriend?"

"Absolutely not." Ari said as he looked at Vittoria.

"It's a girls trip, Ari." Gianni said with gritted teeth.

before Vittoria could intervene, Ari spoke up, "I know, I know, but hear me out-I have vip access to a yacht party that you all would not want to miss."

Vittoria and Gianni's eyes widened. "You're joking." Vittoria said.

"Nope." Ari said with a shrug.

"now that's how you crash a girls' trip." Gianni said with an approving nod.

Nickolas's POV

As I downed another glass of whiskey, I was bored to say the least. Heidi's hands kept brushing up and down my chest, her short green dress left nothing to the imagination and she kept herself glued to me, as we sat on the couch overlooking the entire deck below us, people were wild, lights glittering, champagne flowing, models and men, dressed to impress, the sound of upbeat jazz music pervaded the deck.

"honey, we should go back in the room, I can show you something better inside." Heidi whispered in my ears, as she played with the buttons of my shirt, she was practically sitting on top of me. 

There were men ogling looking at Heidi, and if my mood was a little less sour, I would've probably taken her to our room and fucked her hard. 

But I was tired of her clinging behaviour. We had established early on in our relationship, that what we had was purely physical and we both came from families that had good ties to each other-so it all seemed convenient when I asked her to marry me, our parents would be off our backs to get married. 

But since I had asked her to marry me, Heidi had fooled herself into thinking that things between us would go beyond just the physical aspects, even when I had expressly told her not to. 

"No Heidi, I'm not in the mood." I grunted, as I filled another glass of whiskey. 

Her hands trailed down my biceps, resting right above my dick, teasingly. "Perhaps I could get you in the mood." She breathed. 

I had had enough. 

I got up abruptly, "I said no." I spoke with finality. 

she sighed, she was going to start arguing now, I could feel it in my fucking bones. 

But as I walked up to the edge, looking down at the party, someone caught my eye.

A girl in a red dress. 

Fuck. Even from up here, she looked fucking ethereal, my breathing shallowed. 

Her. 

She was dancing. 

But she was not just dancing, she was dancing like a goddamn siren and an angel, all at once. she laughed as she closed her eyes, moving to the beats. She was dancing as though she didn't care what anyone else thought of her. Her laughter was fucking making me want to be the one to make her laugh, every fucking day of my life, I wanted to grip her waist and drag her away from all the men gawking at her, bloody fuckers, I wanted to strangle them, and I wanted her to be chained to me, I wanted her smiles, I wanted her laughter, I wanted her to look at me, I wanted to hold her hand, I wanted to fuck her, I wanted to pound into her, I wanted her. 

"Are you even listening to me?" Heidi said from behind me. 

"Now's not a good time, Heidi." I said as I turned around, "you've had enough alcohol, you should get rest." 

She scoffed, "I don't want rest, Nickolas, I want you," She smirked as she tired to come closer to me. 

"Enough, Heidi." I said as I held her hands, trying to stop them from touching my chest. "Go to the hotel, Dave's waiting downstairs with the car." 

"Why the fuck can't I come with you to Paris? I am your fucking fiancé" Heidi slurred. 

I was leaving for Paris in an hour, for business, I couldn't handle Heidi on top of my hectic schedule.

"Heidi, I'm going there for work." I said through gritted teeth. 

"But.." Heidi was interrupted when Dave walked in, "Sir." 

"Take Ms. Koch to her hotel." I commanded Dave, who gave a curt nod, Heidi frowned as she reluctantly went along with Dave. 

I turned my attention back to the party below, trying to find my siren.  

She was standing at the bar now, and with a boy. 

Fucking bastard. 

He was standing too close to her, as though they knew each other. My rage catapulted when he kept a hand at her back. 

"Neil, I want you to find who that lady in red dress is, and also that loser with her." I said to Neil, my other bodyguard, who nodded and promptly got to work. 

I didn't even know her name and yet here she had me in her hold, captivated me. 

enamoured me. 

I wanted to devour her. 

I was going to devour her. 

She was going to be mine.
