865 Words
(Ray POV) I quickly walked towards the restroom while that words was echoing in my mind. I wanted to shove that word at the back of my mind but It seems impossible. I turned around to see if someone was present or not but no one was present here. I quickly entered in the washroom and secured it with lock before looking towards my reflection. I have ash blonde hair with ice blue eyes but the girl who was staring back at me in the mirror has dark brown eyes with dark brown hair. I also put a lot of foundation to change my skin color from fair to tan. I don’t want to show anyone my real face, not because it was the requirement of my work but I have so many bitter memories attached to my real face. I don’t want to see that face. I close my eyes and take a few deep breaths to calm myself down before opening them again. “You can do that! You are stronger than this, Ray! You can do this,” I said to myself while staring back at my own reflection and turned on the tap. I splashed cold water on my face and I helped a lot in calming myself down. I composed myself and straightened my dress before walking towards the door. There was a light shiver in my hands but I quickly covered it before opening the lock and heading outside. I quickly walked towards the bar corner and ordered a Martini and three tequila shots for me. We werewolves have strong senses as compared to human beings, so we need almost thrice the amount of alcohol in our system to get a hangover than humans. He served me and passed a flirty look to me but I was not in the mood to play at the moment, so I didn’t answer his gesture. I was dressed in a black bodycon off shoulder dress which was doing a good job in accentuating my curves. It had a golden belt which highlighted my tiny waist and the dress ended up my mid thighs.. My nails were painted in black color and I did smokey makeup with golden touch to cast a mysterious look. My lips were painted in a nude color lipstick. I was circling my finger around the edges of the tequila shot when someone stood beside me. My body tensed when I felt his presence behind me. He slid a card at my glass and left the place. I quickly turned the card and it had a room number with my secret code on it, It means he was my potential client. I quickly finished my shot in one go and smooth my hair before checking the knife and gun which I hit behind me hairstyle. I put down my hair with loose curls, so it was not only provided volume but also provided best space to hide my weapons. “Joe! I am going to meet the client. We will meet tomorrow,” I whispered in his ear because he was also coming towards the bar counter. He nodded and with this, we parted our ways. My grip tightened on my black fancy clutch but It was not filled with makeup or anything. Instead, It has my tools which I can use in case of an emergency. Because of the nature of my job, I have to remain prepared for any kind of situation. I checked the card again and looked towards the room number and knocked on the door after taking another deep breath. The door opened, and I entered in it. “Hello, Miss Ray! We have heard great things about you. We want to make an offer…” “We? What do you mean by that? As far as I know, you are alone in this room,” I said while looking around. I didn’t feel another scent in this room. “Yeah! I am talking on behalf of my bosses. They are stuck in something important, so they asked me to deliver their message to you,” He explained, and I scoffed before turning towards him. “Listen, Mister! I am not interested in talking with secretaries. As your boss to come here otherwise, I have many important things in my hand to finish,” I said in a stern tone. He nodded before quickly dialling the number of his boss and walked towards the balcony. After a few seconds, he came back. He will be here in just a few minutes. Can I order something for you?” He asked but I showed him my palm to stop him from further talking. “I am okay! I will wait here for him. I will only wait for fifteen more minutes if he doesn’t come, then the deal will be off from my side,” I answered him and he took the cue and left the room. What a shitty day it was!!! I said while throwing my hands in the air. I know Joe would throw a fit if he heard me at that moment, but luckily, he was not here to scold me.
