Afloat Season 3 E. 6

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing

Exclusive Restaurant / Abuja

"You must apologize to me this minute! David, I demand an apology right now!"

Tricia bawled. The room was soundproof, so her shrill voice bounced off the walls. She was not accustomed to being scolded, and being disrespected by David awakened alien emotions. She suddenly felt like hurting him just to put him in his place—right beneath her! The man was just a cheap wannabe who was being assisted by Alex. How he had suddenly grown wings was a mystery her imagination could not comprehend.

"I'm not Alex, and you have twenty seconds to pack up your things. If you don't move your ass, I will get my men to bundle you out of this hotel. Your time starts now."

Tricia was speechless. Her fingers curled into tight fists of pure rage. She wanted to strike his face, but common sense warned her that her strength was no match for his, and hitting him might be a disastrous idea. Besides, this was not her territory.

"Your time is up!"

David walked over to the door, pushed it open, and called out to some people. Tricia's eyes nearly fell out of their sockets when two burly men strode into the room, flexing muscles that seemed about to erupt from their fitted dark jackets.

The humiliating prospect of being dragged out and ending up plastered across the headlines of major gossip blogs sent shivers down her spine. Without another second of hesitation, she snatched up her purse and hurried toward the door.

David grabbed her hand, forcing her to stop. Her fiery eyes met his dark ones.

"Since you intentionally broke your phone, you will have to stay home because I don't want you disappearing on me. I hope I'm clear enough?"

"David, I can afford a new phone and have it delivered to me tomorrow morning, so don't you dare threaten me."

Tricia jerked her hand free of his grasp and stormed out angrily, the two large guards following close behind her. David grinned, picked up a sealed bottle of vodka from the minibar, and leisurely followed them.
