A Lamb Among Wolves 2

855 Words
Aria’s POV The party continued in full swing, with scantily dressed females and males parading around. None of them looked ashamed or bothered about anything or anyone. They were all focused on having fun. Many were already swimming in the pool, competing and completing laps. Some of the girls were wrapped around the arms of the guys, kissing and embracing them in an intimate manner. “Hey, you,” Eva beckoned to a waiter serving drinks and collected two glasses, handing one to me. “I told you I want to reduce my alcohol intake,” I said. “Oh, sorry about that, bestie. We are at a strip party, and you need a drink to loosen up,” she replied, forcing the drink into my hand while gulping down her own in one swift move before waving for more. I took a sip of the wine, expecting that familiar burning taste. Instead, a sweet and cool sensation flooded my taste buds, making me take another sip. Before I knew it, I had finished the entire content of the glass. “This tastes great.” “What wine is this?” I asked Eva, who was already swaying her body to the rhythm of the music. “I don’t know, but it must be imported.” “All the drinks and food are made by the best chefs, and most of them are imported,” she replied. I waved at a waiter, collecting another glass of drink and finishing it in one swift move. Soon, Eva and I were on the dance floor, shaking our bodies to the beat of the music. Our movements flowed naturally with the slow soul music, which was both alluring and daring. The lights above shifted constantly, casting different colors across the hall while the bass vibrated beneath my feet. Many of the Alpha heirs, including those who had approached us earlier, watched us in admiration. Soon, they joined us. Several of them danced close to Eva, who shamelessly encouraged them by swaying her hips, much to their delight. I stayed away from everyone approaching me, choosing to dance alone in my corner. Eva remained surrounded by several males before eventually making her way toward me. “Let’s go to the private lounge upstairs. That’s where the real fun is,” she whispered excitedly, licking her lips. “You go have fun. I’ll be just fine here,” I replied. “Why not join me? Let’s have fun. You can even lose your V-card tonight to a hot, sexy guy.” She winked. “Get away from me,” I spat, my face turning red. The thought of getting laid crossed my mind. But not with some random hot guy. Instead, the image of Alpha Ronan appeared in my head. Those strong arms. That broad chest. The sight I had accidentally walked in on earlier. “f**k. I need more drink,” I muttered, heading toward the counter. “Drinking alone?” A familiar male voice sounded beside me. I turned to find Matthew. “Eva just left to catch fun. I don’t want to kill her excitement,” I replied slowly while sipping my drink. “Well, Eva can be a party animal,” he joked. A small smile escaped me. “You look beautiful and sexy tonight,” he complimented, his eyes roaming over me. “Thank you,” I muttered. “Join me for a dance.” He stretched out his hand toward me. I wanted to say no. But I figured I needed a distraction. So I finished my drink, placed my hand in his, and followed him back to the dance floor. At first, we moved slowly to the music. Then the song changed. The rhythm became faster. Wilder. More demanding. The crowd cheered as more people joined the dance floor, and the energy inside the hall rose instantly. After a while, I began feeling slightly dizzy. The alcohol was probably starting to catch up with me. “I need to use the restroom,” I told Matthew. He nodded immediately. I left and headed in the direction of the restroom located near one of the far corners of the mansion. As I walked, I caught sight of a couple locked in a heated kiss. The guy’s hand roamed over the girl’s body while her hands trailed his chest and neck -soft moans escaped her lips. On the other side, another girl was pressed against a wall with a guy holding her close f*****g her senseless from behind while the both moan and pants heavily. Neither of them seemed remotely concerned about being seen. I quickened my pace, almost breaking into a run. The last thing I wanted was to witness any more of the night’s activities or any live porn. The deeper I moved into the corridor, the quieter the music became. The lights were dimmer here, and the atmosphere felt strangely different from the crowded hall behind me. Then suddenly— I bumped into something hard. A broad, hairy chest. A man. My whole body tensed instantly. Every instinct inside me screamed danger.
