Thread: Insatiable -A Clichèd Romance [Random & Grim]

Nathan narrowed his eyes at James at the mention of Burn . Aurora did rub her victory in his face with her little line out reaching the finish line first. Those few words just spoiled his mood further. This was the very reason why he didnt want to attend this cocktail party. He was expecting this sort of thing to happen but what he wasnt expecting was what came next. One, worth competing with . Now that was something Nathan wasnt going to take lightly. Words like that always got him riled up. He knew very well where that was coming from. He said something similar to her best friend Laura, and this was payback. Nathan clenched his teeth together to control himself from saying something rash. He had to think this through for a few seconds. Aurora had just sprinkled salt over his wounded ego and this was not going to end well and would have its repercussions. Nathan waited for Aurora to walk away a little before responding to James and Christina with his usual rude remark but this time he made sure to be loud enough for Aurora to hear. The little bitch needs to learn manners. He grumbled in annoyance. He wasnt done yet. After placing his drink on the counter, he began to follow the blonde, his pace quickly matching hers. A mischievous smirk was lingering over his countenance as he nudged his shoulder with hers to gain her attention. You look absolutely repulsive today. These sorts of dresses arent made for your kind dear Miss Williams. Behind the pair and back at the bar, James was having his own little amusement from the current situation. He quickly slapped a twenty dollar bill on the counter right next to Christina. Twenty bucks says Nathan will cause a scene. James was sure that Christina was going to join in. He knew a thing or two about her as well especially the fact that she had a thing for Nathan which was always one sided. Youre on! Those two arent stupid. She retorted, slapping another twenty over his. You bored me a long time ago. Youre just an overachieving brat who has no life outside the office. Sometimes I feel sad for you. Maybe thats why I never take you seriously. Nathan made sure to keep his voice in low whisper aimed down to the blondes ear. Upfront, he just had a smile on his face which he was so good at faking. His words were interrupted by a man congratulating the pair on their achievement. After a small thank you to him, Nathan suddenly grabbed her hand, making sure to give her delicate palm a firm squeeze as he stepped in front of her and gazed into her blue orbs with a serious look plastered on his face. Weve never really played at all Miss Williams. But I can tell you this for sure, if we do get a chance to really compete, youll be left in tears and a mess. Nathan was angry and he did have the tendency to push it too far, which was something he did when he leaned in and whispered ever so lightly near Auroras cheek. Just like the rest of your family. He had known her for a long time and this meant he knew a few things about her and her family, at least the things that very few people knew. He wasnt aware of the real circumstances behind her familys situation because she kept that private. Nathan sometimes tried to ask his father about Auroras family but Michael refused to tell his son. Right now, he was in the mood to argue with her, something he had stopped doing for a very long time. Despite knowing each other since childhood, Nathan never called her Rory like the others did. He stuck with Aurora or Miss Williams when he wanted to mock her just as he was doing now. He let her hand go and stepped back a little. Enjoy your evening Miss Williams. You deserve the applause, but Id suggest you get a life and find something else other than feeding on flattery by corporate ass kissers. Nathan had just sounded the horns for war. He wasnt going to let tonights remarks by Aurora go so easily and he knew that she wasnt going to let what he said go either because Nathan had made a very personal attack on her. His mind was now working on ways to humiliate her and hit her where it hurt. He had had enough of losing to her and hearing her snarky comments. He wanted to end this with one big blow and this is when something clicked in his head. It was an old plan that he had crafted but when he had tried to execute it, the target became Laura instead of her. Yes, Nathan wanted to sweep Aurora off her feet and then dump her miserably to satiate the hate and jealousy he felt towards her. This had failed once but he was willing to give it another go. Make it grander and even more painful so that when the time comes, he would hurt her enough to make her leave once and for all.
