25

Suddenly Lulu started talking about her experience followed by Brianna and Mandy. All 4 of us were at the table laughing and sharing a bottle of whisky until the subject strangely turned to Violet and Marcus.
When I heard their names all the happiness on my face was gone. Every time I heard their names everything inside me heated up with anger.




I just drank glass after glass of alcohol until my vision became blurred. I wanted to keep drinking to forget my whole life. I didn't want to feel any more pain from Marcus's betrayal, let alone everything Derek was doing to him.




Soon I felt my head spinning and I stood up from the chair, my legs weakened and I swung forward on the verge of falling, until suddenly I noticed someone catch me in mid-air.




My heart jumped at a faint familiar scent. I let out a smirk as I looked up at the person who had caught me. For a second I thought it was Derek, who had sent me to follow and then come to me.




But, my eyes widened in surprise as I looked at the man in front of me, "Handsome" I said with a soft smile on my lips as I brought my wobbly hands up to the boy's perfect face.
"Miss? are you ok?" the man asked me with a fucking attractive smile.




I shook my head and tried to straighten my body and move away from him, but it was useless, I fell back into his arms "No... I'm not ok" I said.




At that moment the voice of one of my friends was heard "Oh, Katlyn... you're so drunk".




"Hey handsome, thanks for catching our friend. We'll take over now" Lulu said with a mischievous tone.




I clearly heard my friend's words, but I clutched my hands around the boy's neck. He was so handsome and he brought me peace, so I felt like I wanted to be closer to him.




In a second my mind was focused on his perfect facial features.




"Come on Katlyn, you are drunk. We have to go back" Brianna said suddenly.




I made a move and moved closer to the handsome man. Who let out an obvious smile on his face" I can help you with your friend" He said.
I smiled at his words and licked my lips. He started to move his legs while holding me in his arms. So my friends had no choice but to let him help me.




"Thank you very much handsome" I said without knowing if I had pronounced it correctly.




Maybe it's because of the excess of alcohol in my body, but this man generated something different in me.




"Where do you live?" Asked the man walking towards the exit of the bar.




"In hell" I said, making the man stop walking to look at me curiously.




"What?" he asked.




I let out a mocking laugh "If you know where hell is, then you know where I live. I live with a demon" I said with a frown. Every time I remembered that my life is meant to be shared with him, I felt anger, but the drunkenness was just hiding my reality.




"Fuck, you're really drunk" Said the man shaking his head.




"I'm sorry... excuse her... she's living with Derek..." Brianna couldn't even finish her words when the man stopped his steps and her expression became surprised and nervous.




"Wait a minute. Are you Derek's wife? " The man asked.




I couldn't help but smile "Yes, I'm just a fake wife" I said not caring that Derek would be mad at me.




"Who would have thought that the woman in my arms is the wife of my friend Derek?" Said the man with a slight smile.




I opened my eyes in disbelief. What? I couldn't believe what this man said. I didn't even remember his face.




"Are you... are you Derek's friend?" I asked, making sure I heard him right.


The man arched his eyebrow and nodded without hesitation.




"Yeah, I'm Riley, yeah mate. I just got back into town a little while ago and came in for a drink" He said.




Hearing that made my stomach turn, how small would the world be? I wanted to ask this man a thousand questions, but I just closed my eyes and let the alcohol consume me.




All I could hear in the distance was the voice of my friends talking to Derek's friend. Suddenly darkness came over me and I fell into a kind of deep sleep.





From Derek's point of view.




I kept calling Katlyn on the phone, but I couldn't even get an answer. Fuck, this woman had left the mansion without my permission.




The maid informed me that she had left 5 hours ago and still hadn't returned. I was starting to get worried. I was so angry with her, but at the same time I felt that something bad had happened to her. After all, she was still my wife and if anything happened to her my name would be all over the news in the country.




"Garvin!" Call my beta.




My voice echoed off the four walls like a loud thunderclap.




After a few seconds the door to my office opened and in walked Garvin with a nervous expression "Yes my alpha?"




I looked at him with anger while frowning and clenching my fists "Tell me, where did my wife go?" I asked with my alpha command.




"I don't... I don't know" He said, lowering his eyes in fear.


My anger was starting to flow from my pores at that moment "Doy your fucking alpha! Don't you dare lie to me if you don't want me to kill you right here!" I shouted getting up from the chair and hitting the table hard.
