{Izzah's POV}

Since I can't handle all the pressure of work and now this new guy at once, I ask Andrew to enquire about his degree qualifications.

Alyan is off to go outside when mom interrupts him,
"Alyan, where are you going? It's almost dinner time", my mom being all caring for an outsider.

"I've already made plans so yeah.. um..don't wait for me I'll be late", He leaves as soon as his phone starts vibrating.

"So can we start eating now?", I ask her for confirmation.

"Yes, sure", mom smiled wryly. I keep tossing from side to side in bed. It's the same. I won't fall asleep without taking the pills. I sighed in exasperation.

I head to the kitchen to fetch a glass of water

I head to the kitchen to fetch a glass of water. At arms length I'm pouring water into a glass when I hear a loud noise coming from outside. It's dead of night when I confirm on the Mi Home that it is none other than Alyan.

Guards grab him by his arms and bring him in.
He is under the influence of alcohol to the extent of losing control which is pretty much obvious in his behaviour.

"Wait, I'm fine. I had a lot of fun tonight", he giggles feeling energized.

"Oh my God, he's noisy. You two, take him to his room", the guards help him to reach his room. He is so drunk that he lurches from wall to wall of his room.

"Okay, you may leave", when the guards left, Alyan is standing against the wall almost hugging it.

"What are you doing?", God knows why am I even asking him.

"Can't you see? I'm dancing", his eyes remain closed while he said so. Clearly you are. I snort.

"What time is it? Do you have any idea?" He looks in my direction this time,
"Oh it's haughty bitch! You think you're some rich filthy kid who's going order all you want. I'll have all the luxury like you, I'll take over my things rightfully. It's time to celebrate", he starts giggling again this time a bit louder.

Did he just call me bitch?! Cool Izzah cool.. "So you're in this condition because I'm going to pay you?"

"No! I'm going to succeed! And you little bitch", he points his index finger in my direction saying, "you're going to regret what you did" he scowls.

I dare him to say that when he's sober. Clearly he has lost it. Enough is enough! I'm not going to listen to his shits anymore.

"Alright, come with me", holding him by his shoulders I'm about to put him in bed. The strong smell of alcohol is  coming from his cloth.

All of a sudden, he squeezes my arms holding me tight by spinning me to face him.
I want to release myself but one arm tightens around me more.

His hug is warm and cosy. It is something which I never felt with Liam before. I can feel his breathing on my neck as he keeps his head laid there.

I squirmed in his bear hug, pushing him at the edge of the bed.
