BULLET

"Sige na, Miss, sayaw ka na ro'n. Kanina ko pa kasi inaantay na may upuan kasi nangangalay na ako kakatayo." He smiled cutely like it was nothing sabay hikab at unat ng kamay niya.

I blinked once. Twice.

I can't believe this. I can't believe this fucking idiot!

I gaped at him, my eyes burning in mixtures of shame, annoyance, and surprise.

No one, no one has ever done that to me!

"I'm sorry?" I called out, my jaw tightening and tilted my head.

Did he just ask me to dance? Alone? So he could take my seat?

"Ah, don't worry, pinapatawad na kita," he answered me back.

Mas umawang ang labi ko at mukhang 'di niya iyon napapansin dahil dumating na ang drinks niya.

I observed him. Since he's the owner and the DJ of this prestigious club, I'm sure as hell he's rich. I noted his branded clothes and his limited-edition shoes. He dressed so simple but if you have a taste for fashion and knew them well enough, I can identify its authenticity and I can say it is.

He's damn rich. I wonder what his net worth is. Wondered if what wonders does his wallet has.

An evil plan filled my devious head. I came here to get drunk and relax but seems like this is more fun, huh?

"Good evening, boss,"

"Good eve," I can hear the baritone and amused tone he used to answer the bartender back, "need help?"

"Ayos lang, boss, kaya na namin 'to,"

The man smirked, nodding his head to the latter before whipping his head back to me, jumping upon seeing my face.

"Miss!" he even had the fucking guts to look surprise, "'di ka pa sumasayaw?"

My mood shifted again. I clenched my hand, trying to be nice and calm before I could even lift my fist and punch his nose.

Don't tell me he wasn't really interested? Impossible.

At this face? Nah, I'm so sure he's playing hard to get.

"Oh, that's so rude of me," he blurted as if he realized a mistake and licked his lower lip then called the bartender's attention again. "Thomas,"

"Yes, boss?" ngumisi ang huli.

"Pa-reserve ng upuan ko," sabay lahad niya sa kamay, tinutukoy ang upuan ko na inagaw niya.

Sumulyap sa akin ang lalaki at lumaki ang ngiti sabay sulyap sa boss niya, "akong bahala, boss." Sabay patong niya sa upuan ng sign.

I squinted my eyes and blinked twice when I read the sign.

NO TRESPASSING. BEWARE OF DOG. ARF! ARF!

At sa gilid ay may picture ng asong may shades.

What the fuck?

"Cute, 'no?" a baritone voice soothed my ear accompanied by an amused chuckle, "kita 'ko 'yang picture sa google, si-nave ko lang."

Ibinalik ko ang tingin sa lalaki, muntik pang mapaatras sa lapit ng katawan naming dalawa but I didn't give him the satisfaction of seeing me startled by our proximity.

I'm not startled. I was never affected to idiots like this one. I just watched him closely, his blue eyes illuminating with the disco lights on our way. I was tall but he's taller even when I'm in heels.

He towered me, some strands of his black hair grazing his temple.

His lip twitched. "Like what you see, Miss?"

Hindi ako umimik at nakipagtagisan ng tingin sa kanya. I deprived my face from any emotion escaping—not like I have one.

We locked each other's gazes and I saw how the amused smirk on his lips faded. I noticed something sparkling on his eyes.

Got you. Seems like my charm's working, huh?

He gulped and stood straight, "let me take you to the dance floor—"

Slowly, I titled my head and bit my lower lip, shaking my head. Lumapit siya at muling ibinuka ang bibig para magsalita pero inilapit ko ang daliri sa labi niya para manahimik.

I felt his warm breath touch my finger. I heard his intake of heavy breath. I almost smirk but stopped my myself.

"No, thank you," ang daliri sa labi ko'y marahan kong ibinaba sa chin niya, senswal na pinaraan sa may lalamunan hanggang maabot ang dibdib niya't ginamit ang hintuturo sa pagtulak sa kanya papalayo.

His throat bobbed.

"Miss—"

"Enjoy sitting, baka nananakit ang paa mo," sumulyap ako sa upuan niya. "Bye, Mr. DJ," then, I gave him a wink before turning my back, moving my hips sexily as I strode to the dance floor.

I made sure to emphasize my curves and the way my dress hugs it perfectly. Amidst the loud party music, I heard his deep curses behind me.

Hindi pa ako nakakalapit sa dance floor ay may lumapit na kaagad sa akin.

"Dance, beautiful?" a familiar celebrity came into view.

"Me first," biglang sabi ng isa pa at wala man ako sa mood makipagplastikan at magpanggap na interesado ay wala akong choice.

I'm not in the mood but I wanted to prove a point and so, I smirked at the two of them and spoke.

"Why not we all dance together?"

They let out a whistle. I moved my neck a little to twirl my blonde hair a bit and took their hands to go in the dance floor for a dance.

Maganda ang tugtog sa bar. Hindi kagaya ng iba naming napupuntahan na pili lang ang kantang magaganda. Says a lot about the DJ. I commend. Good taste.

"What's your name?" tanong no'ng celebrity habang sumasayaw kaming tatlo kasama ang crowd.

"Bella," I lied.

The guy's eyes glinted, "you are a beauty."

"Thanks, babe," I answered and moved my hips to the music.

I saw Jayden and Claudine and noted their shock seeing me dancing. I just shrugged and danced with the boys, putting my arms around the other one and enjoyed the music.

I talked to the boys who I admit a bit interesting but still, hindi ko maiwasang mapansin ang mariing tingin sa pwesto ko mula sa malayo.

I could feel how it began burning a hole on my back, my hair pricking at the back of my nape.

I tried my best not to look at it but found myself glancing.

From where I left him, I saw him.

Nakasandal siya sa stool at sa kamay ay may baso ng alak. He was moving his glass as if clinking the ice cubes inside, not leaving my gaze and when he caught my eye, he smirked.

What now? Feel sorry you aren't interested?

The other guy grinded himself at me. It made me frown but masked it with an amused look. I answered it back by moving my hips.

My dance partner lowered his head to whisper something incoherent. Tumawa ako kahit 'di ko nakuha ang sinasabi niya. Muli siyang bumulong at humalik na sa tainga ko.

While doing that, my eyes are locking gazes with that blue-eyed devil from the distance. His jaw tightened.

I only smiled sexily and nodded my head in recognition of seeing him before leaving his line of vision again.

Nang may dumaang waiter na may tray ay kumuha ako ng dalawang shot at diretsong uminom. The two guys whistled before touching my waist, saying something I couldn't understand.

"One more," I mumbled and took another shot until my head spun a bit.

There. Better.

I glanced at the two boys again ogling all over me. The celebrity guy's shamelessly gawking at my exposed cleavage while caressing my waist.

"Is that a full tattoo on your back?" The other one whispered.

I nodded.

"Hmm, why? I don't think tattoos are for girls,"

Did I ask for your opinion, ass hat?

My brow twitched. My sharp tongue are craving to say something vile but stopped my lips.

Not now, Bullet. Don't let jackass like that spoil your night. You only had this night to chill before the real work starts again.

"Wanna go something private?" bulong no'ng isa.

"For what? Hmm?" malambing kong tanong.

An evil glint filled his gaze, he glanced at the other guy.

"If you're free, wanna join us?" they exchanged gazes and before I could find excuses and leave them horny and ogling at me, I felt a large palm covering my stomach from behind.

I was gently pulled away from them and when I smelled the perfume, I tried my best to look neutral and unaffected.

Seems like a devil came here sniffing around. I pursed my lips.

"Sorry, gentlemen, she's not available," the familiar baritone voice said.

"What?" reklamo ng isa. "We're dancing with her!"

"Why don't you find someone? H'wag ang amin!" reklamo no'ng artista.

The palm on my stomach tightened and when I felt his chiseled chest moving to control himself, I pouted and shook my head at the boys.

"I'm so sorry, boys," I smiled fakedly. "Thank you for the dance, I enjoyed it."

Mukhang lalaban pa sila pero nang makita ang hindi interesante kong tingin ay sabay na umalis para maghanap ng kasayaw.

The music boomed for another drop but we remained that way. With the Victorious of Panic! At The Disco song, slowly, I moved my body away and whipped my head to look at the blue-eyed devil.

"Yes, Mr. DJ?" malambing kong tanong. "I thought your feet's tired of standing? You shouldn't be dancing—"

"Let's dance," he held my waist and whipped me back to our original position. My back on his chest.

Thought you aren't interested? What's this now? Jealous seeing someone dying to dance with me? See, I'm right!

"Dance," I mumbled. "What for? Thought you're tired—" but he lowered his face from behind and moved his lips closer to my ear.

"No, hun, I'm not," he whispered and moved his hips.

I pursed my lips, amused at him.

Asshole's got some moves.

Inangat ko ang kamay ko patalikod para abutin ang batok niya habang ang palad niya'y inaangkin ang tiyan ko mula sa likuran.

"Alright," I answered. "I knew it. You poor boy, you wanted so bad to dance with me, hmm?"

He chuckled on my ear and danced slowly with me despite the party song.

"Did I stomp your ego, Miss Blondie?" he whispered back, biting my ear.

My forehead creased. What?!

"Knew it," he chuckled on my ear, "you think I'm gonna ask you to dance?"

Annoyed, I pulled myself away from him but he caught my wrist and pulled me back. I slammed on his chest and he held me there.

"What?" I spat.

His sexy smile just appeared again as he moved his face closer to my face and whispered, "of course, I would ask you to dance."

"Huh," I scoffed. "Is that pity, Mr. DJ? If it is, I don't fucking need—"

"I would ask you to dance," he insisted and caught my chin with his finger while still caging my waist with the other one. "But girls lose interest quickly to guys showing their motives immediately."

Hindi ako umimik at pinagmasdan lang siya, iritado.

"I swear," he mused. "Admit it, what I did caught your attention."

"Excuse me?"

"You kept on looking at me while you're dancing with those assholes," he answered.

"You are overconfident, Mr. DJ," I spat. "How can you say? How sure are you I'm looking at you?"

"Because I'm looking at you, too," he answered me back.

I was caught off guard and from my chin, his finger moved to my cheek down my lips as he caressed it slowly until I'm hitching my breath.

"I was about to ask you kung open ka ba sa business, actually," he moved his eyes back to mine.

"What?" I blinked.

"That's what I'm gonna use to get your attention," he chuckled, "but I think the excuse about the chair is better, hmm?"

I scoffed, "asshole,"

Tumawa siya at muling humaplos ang braso sa baywang ko.

"I was annoyed those men get to dance with your first so I'm regretting my excuse now," he indulged me by moving his hips. "Dance with me, Miss Blondie?"

I watched his face and thought of it for a while.

I didn't come here to socialize. I'm not into talking with random strangers but this one...there's nothing wrong with losing composure for once, right?

"Sure, Mr. DJ," I answered back and put my arms around his nape.

We danced together with the music and I enjoyed it so, so much, as much as I hate to admit it.

I grinded myself at him and he did, too. Our gazes are locked while dancing intimately, the disco lights dancing with our shadow in the middle of the dance floor.

I watched his magnificent blue eyes turning a darker shade with the dimness. When he moved his face closer and put his nose closer to mine, my breath hitched.

Nakatitig siya sa labi ko at nang akmang lalapit ay ipinaling ko ang ulo at bumulong sa kanya.

"Now, you want some kisses?" I mused. "Aren't you so fast?"

He chuckled huskily on my ear and pulled me closer until I'm feeling the bulge in between his thigh.

"Sorry, hun, you are just so fucking sexy."

"You, too," I grinded my body against him, feeling the heat pooling in between my legs.

He cursed.

"Fuck, what's your name?" he whispered.

Hinaplos-haplos ko ang batok niya, natutuwang pinaraan ang daliri ko sa man bun na nagulo dahil sa gawa ko. His palm tightened on my waist as he breathed on my ear.

"Hun?" he whispered.

"Bella," I answered back and took his palm off my waist and lowered it on my ass. He cursed more loudly.

"What?" tanong ko, "what's with the gasps, Mr. DJ? First time touching a lady's ass?"

"Hmm," he purred again squeezed my bottom. Napaigtad ako at mas napayakap sa kanya. "Bella, right?"

Tumango ako't napatindig nang mula sa tainga ko ay bumaba ang halik niya sa leeg ko. I felt the tip of his nose grazing on my sensitive skin as he kissed it softly, whispering.

"I'm Edward," sabay kagat niya sa leeg ko.

I laughed. Hell, I did!

He moved his head from my neck and caught my chin with his fingers, his lazy blue eyes watching me closely.

"Beautiful," he mumbled.

My smile faded, realizing what I just did. I gave him my stone gaze.

"What now?" he purred, "where's my smile?"

"No smiles," agap ko at muli siyang hinila palapit sa akin para sa sayaw at 'di naman na siya nagreklamo at bumalik sa pagkagat sa leeg ko.

I closed my eyes and whipped my body against his, enjoying his warmth while swaying with the music. I'm so hot and I can't believe this man made his move, turning me on after a long time.

I touched his chiseled chest and played with his gold necklace and he seemed to notice. Sumulyap siya sa daliri kong naglalaro sa kwintas niya at kinuha ang kamay ko, akala ko nga no'ng una'y ilalayo niya ako ro'n pero sa halip ay dinala niya lang sa labi niya ang kamay ko.

I watched his blue eyes shining as he pressed a kiss on it, "you like the necklace?"

I shrugged, "it's pretty." And I like pretty things.

"Alright," what I wasn't expecting is him removing his necklace and slowly shifted my body.

"What are you doing?" takang tanong ko pero inilagay niya lang ang buhok ko sa balikat ko't naramdaman ko na ang malamig na kwintas sa leeg ko.

"It's yours," he whispered. Napahawak ako roon at nagulat pa pero nawala rin at napuno ng init ang katawan nang maramdaman ang halik niya sa batok ko.

"Are you sure?" I tried focusing while touching my necklace.

"Hmm," bulong niya bago ako muling iharap at ngumiti sa akin. I saw his pearly white teeth and he pressed a kiss on the tip of my nose. "Pretty things suit you. Let's dance again, Miss Blondie?"

And we did. We had a few drinks and when we got tired from dancing, akala ko'y aayain na niya ako kung saan kagaya ng madalas na galawan ng mga lalaki pero humawak siya sa baywang ko at bumulong.

"You know how to play beer pong, hun?" he whispered.

I glanced at his face. Mestizo kaya namumula na sa alak pero ang gwapo-gwapo pa rin.

"We're gonna play beer pong?"

"If you're interested," his smile softened and unexpectedly, I found myself smiling genuinely at that. My heart pounded in excitement and it felt so foreign.

I wanted to shrug it off and come back into hiding in my facade but...my eyes landed on his beautiful blue ones.

Minsan lang naman? Isang gabi lang? Hindi naman siguro masama?

I didn't hide the amusement in my eyes but my lips stopped from smiling to show a bit of control for myself rebelling tonight.

"Sure! Mas magaling ako sa 'yo, pustahan!"

He squeezed my ass. I squealed and smacked him. He groaned.

"I can beat your ass, I assure you, Edward." I gave him a wicked grin.

"We'll see, Bella," ngumisi siya at napatili ako nang bigla niya akong buhatin sa braso niya para makawala kami sa crowd at dinala sa isang malawak na parte ng bar.

This part was the play station. I can't believe my eyes.

I've been to bars but this one beats them all. Large beer pong table with Neon Lights, following the ball's movements, changing from time to time.

I still can't believe I'm doing this right now. Enjoying when I'm about to take another mission but that's a reason enough, right? I can have fun now and worry about my mission tomorrow!

I was still waiting for a notification in the HQ to know who the next target is. I'm still waiting for the complete information and the said man's photo.

My head stung with the advance exhaustion I will surely feel.

I need to have fun tonight!

May bilyar din sa ibang side at card games and I saw Claudine with Jayden playing! Nagulat sila pagkakita sa 'kin pero ngumisi lang at walang sinabi.

They're probably glad I started interacting again but didn't say anything. Sumaludo sila ng patago sa akin at tinaasan ko na lang sila ng kilay at humawak sa buhok ni Mr. DJ na kanina pa halik nang halik sa balikat ko.

"I thought we're playing?" I whispered.

He chuckled and hugged me from behind, "of course, we will."

Inalalayan niya 'ko papunta sa table at maya-maya'y nasa harapan na namin ang dalawang matatangkad at gwapong mga lalaki.

"Z—"

"Edward," ani ng kasama ko at nagtaas ng kamay para ipakikilala ako, "here's my muse, Bella."

The two handsome men smirked upon seeing me. Hindi ako sigurado kung nakikita nila nang malinaw ang mukha ko dahil sa neon lights sa paligid na nagsisilbing tanging ilaw sa parteng iyon.

"Hello, Bella," the handsome man wearing a two-piece suit waved. I am not sure if he has blue eyes too or I'm just drunk. "Where's Jacob?"

Mas tumaas ang sulok ng labi ko.

"Fuck you, Chiel," inangat ni Mr. DJ ang gitnang daliri sa kaibigan.

He thinks I didn't know he's using a fake name? I do, too. So, no worries.

Ngumisi lang ang lalaki at sumimsim ng alak, "nice meeting you, Miss Bella,"

I nodded in recognition and that's when Mr. DJ introduced the silent one.

"That's Deion, this is Chiel, my cousins..." aniya sa akin, "saan na si Macky-beybe?"

"Sulking," the handsome man with eyeglasses and sporting stubbles on his jaw answered. May tinuro siya sa malayo kaya sumunod ang tingin ko roon at nakita ang isang lalaking nakasandal at abala sa phone niya, walang pakialam.

"Let's play," bulong sa akin ni Edward at humawak sa baywang ko, "ready to beat their ass, Bella?"

I watched the two handsome competitive fellas watching us with amusement. I lifted the glass of beer I'm holding and drank it in one go.

"Let's beat their asses, Edward," I answered back competitively.

"That's my girl!" sumipol siya at inangat ang kamay, "high-five, bebe!"

I sneered at his funny endearment but found myself accepting his high-five and get on with our game.

Magaling ang dalawa, I admit. But I wasn't born a loser so when when Edward and I are losing, hinarap ko siya.

"We only have two chances," I whispered.

Ipinatong niya ang palad sa magkabilang side ng table kung saan ako sumandal at inilapit ang tainga sa labi ko. I smelled his perfume mixing with the liquor.

"Hmm?" he hummed.

I clenched my palm and squeezed my thighs shut when I felt wetter.

"Can you throw in one go with precision?" I asked.

"Yeah," he whispered back on my ear. "I don't like to sound boastful but I'm in army. I'm good with...shooting."

My mouth parted. Interesting.

His eyes glistened with my reaction. He kissed my cheek.

"Ang ganda mo," bulong niya at hinawakan ang chin ko. "How 'bout you, can you throw in one go?"

I nodded and watched his beautiful face.

"I don't like to sound boastful, too, but I'm an expert in shooting range simulation," I grinned proudly when his eyes shone.

"Now, that's hot," he whistled and touched my chin again. I noticed how his gaze linger more on my lips.

"If we win," I glanced at his eyes. "If we win, I'll let you kiss me."

He blinked and gulped, "can I?"

Slowly, I placed my finger on his lips and bit my lower lip.

"Don't be so excited, Mr. DJ," I purred. "That's only if we win...a kiss or maybe more?"

He cursed under his breath, "let's go!" bigla siyang mas naging competitive at hinarap ang mga pinsan na natatawa sa kanya.

"Good luck," doon ko lang napansin na nandito na ang lalaking nakaupo at namangha na naman ako habang nakatitig sa kanya.

"Macky-beybe!" Edward grinned, "tamang-tama, may lucky charm na 'ko!"

The handsome man only lifted his hand for a vulgar sign before glancing at me from a nod.

"I'm sorry for the ass, hindi lang uma-ttend sa schedule niya sa therapy," sabay turo kay Edward na nakasimangot na.

I called his attention and when he glanced my way, I kissed his jaw. He stiffened and sighed loudly before cracking his head and stretched his fingers.

"Let's fucking go," he exclaimed.

And we fucking won!

Napasigaw ako nang malakas at tumalon para yumakap kay Edward na nagmumura at tuwang-tuwa pa.

"Losers!" he hissed at the laughing men in front of us. "Bleh!" he even stuck his tongue out before twirling me after lifting me in the air.

I can't believe I'm laughing at that. I may be just so drunk!

The next thing is a blur with sheer pleasure. Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at nangangatog pa nga ata ang tuhod habang naglalakad at hindi ko na napansin ang paligid nang tumama ang likod ko sa pader at maya-maya pa'y ang labi niya'y na sa akin na.

It was heaven.

I kissed him back, nipping and tongue fighting, loving the taste of sweet liquor on his mouth. He pressed me more and squeezed my waist, earning a purr from my mouth.

"Sexy," he breathed. "So fucking sexy."

"You're hot," I confessed and touched his jaw, "when you won that last ball, I..."

"You?" he breathed on my lips.

Smiling seductively, I took his other hand gripping my jaw and let it fall from my face down my breast with my direction until it lowered in between my thigh.

"I'm wet," I smiled.

He cursed again and even with my clothes still on, I let out a feminine moan as he rubbed me through my soaked silk panties.

"You certainly are," he mumbled and looked to the side as if looking if we have company. Nang makita niya ang padaang waiter ay inalis niya ang kamay niya sa akin kaya naghabol ako ng hininga.

"Yes, boss?"

"I'll have one," aniya at kinuha ang isang baso sabay patong ng isang kamay niya sa itaas ng ulo ko. "You can go and please, tell the staff this area's not for public access tonight."

The waiter nodded and when we're left alone again in the dark and empty corner, he watched me with those sinful blue eyes.

"What's the color of your eyes, hun?"

Natigilan ako saglit pero napatitig sa paraan ng pag-inom niya ng alak habang hindi inaalis ang tingin sa akin.

"Hun?" he called again. I liked it. Hun.

"Black," mabilis kong sagot at bago pa siya makapagtanong muli ay nagsalitang muli. "Can I have a sip?" tukoy ko sa alak.

"Sure," then he drank the whole glass, making me frown.

"What—"

But he held my jaw, pushing my mouth gently to open and kissed me. I clenched my fist when the rum from his mouth went on my waiting mouth, tasting him with the bitterness of the liquor.

A few drops of rum fell on my chin and from my lips, his kisses went down with it. He licked the rum down my throat.

"O-Oh God," I moaned.

"Love the rum?" he asked then chuckled, his lips lapping my exposed chest.

"Yes, you fucker," I whispered.

"You have naughty lips, hun," he found my eyes again and looked around, "kneel."

"Excuse me?" I gasped.

His eyes glistened darkly, "you have naughty lips, hun. I wanna punish you."

My heart jumped excitedly.

"By what?" I challenged. "Pushing your cock inside my mouth?"

Mas lumalim ang paghinga niya at mas idinikit ang sarili niya sa 'kin, "if that's what you like then," he stole another kiss. "Is that what you want?"

"Nope," I pursed my lips. Kumunot ang noo niya sa akin. "I don't kneel for men, hun, I'm sorry..."

I thought it would turn it off but by the way I could still feel his erection on my stomach told me otherwise. I caught the pride dancing on his eyes.

"It's okay, we can still kiss—"

"Kneel," I commanded like a queen. He was stoned.

He blinked in confusion.

I smirked at him, "kidding—"

But he was on his knees before I could finish my words.
