Chapter 9.5: The Hot Dancer

JULY

'YOU ARE IN TROUBLE. Look at you and Jacqui’s position,’ said my wolf.

I was devastated to see Jacqui and I's position. And it was somewhat of a sexual position. I was on top of Jacqui, sitting on her stomach while the side of her sundress was lifted a bit higher, revealing her toned legs. Oh god. And why do I feel like my girlfriend caught me having sex with someone else?

I swallowed before looking again at the behavior of the princess, who was still in her death glare that was so intimidating. Am I just being intimidated or is there some other reason? Why do I seem to want to explain? I think all my blood went to my head.

"I can explain ..." And before I could stop my mouth, those words came out.

She raised an eyebrow and said, "No need. Stay as long as you want. Flirty bastard!" Then she slammed the door shut.

"She likes you too, best," Jacqui said, smiling.

I narrowed my eyes at her. "It's your fault. You are going to pay for this!" I continued to tickle her and again, she's begging for me to stop.

"July, hurry up. Miss Nat will be out—oh, sorry for the disturbance." It was Sam. Jacqui and I stopped again. "Uhh... I think you need to cut that. Miss Natalia is very angry. It looks like someone is planning something bad again. We need to keep an eye on her, Juls." I was sure; my face was crimson red again.

I just nodded and left Jacqui, who was still lying on the floor. My naughty best friend smirks. I softly punched her before following Sam.

"Bye, agent," my best friend said flirtily before we left her room. Jacqui, you're a jerk!

"I really idolize you, Juls," Sam said, shaking his head.

I didn’t speak anymore because I couldn’t understand why my chest was beating so strongly. I'm not doing anything wrong, am I? But why am I nervous and why don’t I want Natalia to get mad at me? Ugh. So confusing.

‘You’re screwed!’ Wolf, my conscience is clear! ‘You’re really screwed!’ Ugh!

WE ENDED UP in a bar at the hotel where we were staying. It's going to be night time and there she is, the princess, chugging tequila, vodka, and any drink like there’s no tomorrow. Natalia is such a heavy drinker! She was with her two friends, of course, who also had no boundaries when it came to drinking alcohol.

I really thought she would scold me earlier, but what I didn't expect was that she would just ignore me, until now.

I and the other four guards were looking out for them, but we made sure we didn't make it obvious. The four guys were in the corner, and I was pretty close to Natalia.

She was so hot tonight.

She wore a black glittery fitted tube dress, through which her groin was barely visible. God, I wanted to snatch her at that moment or give her a high robe to cover her beautiful body from those prying eyes.

Yes, perverted people from the bar are looking at her. Who wouldn't? She's so gorgeous. Even more, her long hair is loose in big curls, matching her seductive makeup. Especially now that she is on the dance floor, it's a good thing no one is trying to approach her. Maybe, the people there recognized her and got intimidated or scared. Whatever the reason, that was a good thing for me as her lady guard.

Her two friends were also super sexy tonight and beautiful, but Natalia really stood out.

‘Are you drunk already?' No, wolf, I’m not.

Tss. I've had a few shots, but my dosage for alcoholic drinks is strong, so I'll be hit for a long time.

‘Then you really like Natalia? You're complimenting her. Earlier,’ my wolf teased me.

"I am not."

"You're not what?" I didn't realize that Haruka was beside me.

Sofia is no longer on the dance floor; it's just Natalia and a man I don't know who are dancing very closely. Uptown Funk is the song that is being played, but they were dancing as if Careless Whisper was the song that was played. What the hell?

I was about to go to them in the middle of the dance floor when Haruka pulled me back.

"Where are you going?" she whispered, then brought her body closer to me. Oh gosh, temptation!

Suddenly, the surroundings became hot. I swallowed my saliva before I answered. Wait, what is she wearing? I just noticed now, I thought her small dress was just a skin tone before, but it turns out it was see-through! Oh gosh, water? No, I need alcohol. Wine!

"I-I will watch over Natalia." Oh geez, she's biting my ear. Rape!

"Don't worry about her. She can handle herself." Obviously, Haruka was drunk.

I know she has a thing for me, but I’m not that insensitive to not know that a friend of hers likes her. And speaking of her friend...

"You're taking advantage of her because she's drunk!" Sofia screamed angrily and yanked the inebriated Haruka away from me.

"I am not!" I said, defensively.

"No. I'm the one—-"

"Yes, you are! Shut up, Haruring!" Then Sofia threw a glare at me. "You are such a flirt! Come on." And she dragged Haruka, away from me, who could no longer say anything. Out of the three, it looks like Haruka is the one who gets drunk fast. Poor girl, her friends are all party girls.

After that incident, I went to look for Natalia. I was shocked and suprised that she was no longer in the place I saw her earlier. Alarmed, I began to look around. Stupid me! Where is she?

‘You are so screwed, woman.’ Shut up, wolf!

I looked around in a daze. The place was so crowded. The bar was so crowded. Ugh! Where are you, Natalia?

"Relax, big sis. She is just in the rest room," said the person beside me. I turned and saw Andres, my younger brother.

"I'll follow her..." I replied quickly but he stopped me.

"She's coming out now, big sis," he said, pointing at the door of the rest room. There I saw the princess get out, as Andres said. She went to the bar counter where we were.

"Oh... You are with a man now? Wow. Number one playgirl. Cheers!" the drunk woman said to me as the bartender served her the wine. I didn’t react immediately. What is she saying? Andres and I just stared at Nataliad while she drank her alcohol in one chug. Wow, she’s really planning to get wasted. Then, with just a snap, he pulled Andres to the dance floor. "Let me borrow your boy toy, b*tch!" I heard her shout.

Huh, that woman is really something. It's a good thing she didn't look at Andres too much. Anyway, I guess that is fine as Rizal and Andres are only fraternal twins and not identical. 

I noticed that Natalia was so tipsy. Disco hits are blasting all over the place, and my throat is drying up while watching Natalia’s dancing to the beat. Oh lord, she's a goddamn goddess on the dance floor.

Natalia and Andres just dance and dance to a couple of songs. I am very jealous of my brother because he has the chance to touch and hold Natalia like that.

‘Jealous huh?!’ Oh gosh. What do I do?

Natalia never tires of dancing, even though Andres has left her on the dance floor.

"Sis, she is super energetic," Andres told me when he was back at my side. "I'll go outside and watch over there…" he added before I said a word.

‘Whoosh! Newsflash! An agent got jealous of her brother. The brother will be beaten later! Hahaha!’

"Shut up, wolf. Shut up!" I muttered under my breath as I gulped my beer, one time.

My wolf keeps annoying me, but I keep my eyes on where Natalia's dancing. I wasn't aware that my drinking was also increasing while my unstoppable eyes were just focused on her while she was dancing with some random people.

I'm her lady guard, so I have the right to look at him. ‘Justify yourself.’ Another word, wolf, you’re going to pay for this act!

Eventually, I got closer to where Natalia was. Luckily, there was a couch near where she was. I can watch her better if I'm close. Many boys and girls were hitting on me that night. But I ignored them easily, so no one attempted anymore. 

When I was on the couch, I was still drinking my beer while looking at Natalia. Admittedly, my mood is already indignant because of the approach of the bodies of others who are dancing with Natalia, but I have no right to be angry. So I was just there staring at them. What's even more annoying, while the dragon queen really enjoys dancing, she doesn't even pay attention to me. She didn't even glance at me!

That's why I was even surprised when she cleared her way with those random guys and chicks, and I don't know if it's just my imagination, but she was walking like the goddess Aphrodite in my direction. And at that exact time, the song changed to Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke.

With just the intro, I had goosebumps. Especially when Natalia grinds toward me. Oh my god. What is she doing? Is she really going in my direction? I turned my back. It was already a wall. She is looking at no-one but me! I can't sit still in my seat. I felt the sweat beginning to form on my forehead. It's air-conditioned here, but why is it so hot?

And it was confirmed that before Robin Thicke started rapping, she was already in front of me, sitting on my lap, sexily dancing and grinding on me.

Oh my god! Water please? *dry throat* *swallow* *ice bucket* Please, water! She is so hot!
