Chapter 11
Domini became stiff, rigid while looking warily at me. He then followed my line of sight and found Drew, who was still watching me. Dominic was pissed, really pissed. "Stay here." Dom ordered in a hard voice but I quickly grabbed his arm.
"No, let's go." Dominic resisted and started walking towards Drew. "Dom! Let's go!"
"I know that guy, he came here a couple of times." Jeremy said in a controlled voice.
"I don't care where the fuck he has been." Dominic growled and tried to walk around me. "Get the fuck away from me, Aleera." He hissed right in my face and I recoiled as he had kicked me. Not once he had talked to me like that and I didn’t imagine that would hurt that much. I didn’t know why but when he talked to me like that made me feel like I had done something bad and was being punished. That feeling wasn’t something I enjoyed, not at all. Seeing my hurt expression, Dom quickly stopped."I didn't mean..."
"Of course you didn't." I sneered bitterly and looked away, ignoring his attempts to make me look at him. Now I was mad too because he had no reason to act like that. Instead of looking at him, I saw that Drew was eyeing me and signaling to me to come to him.
"That fuckers nerve!" Anya hissed and then turned to me. "You're not going to talk to him right?" I didn't answer right away. Drew was a part of my past, a painful part but still...I could still see the guy I had fallen in love with. It still stung to see him. How would it be like talking to him one more time? Would I still have that urge to strangle him or cry? Would my heart react to him? "Right?" Anya pressed.
"You're not going there. Let's go home."
"Now you wanna go?" Glanced incredulously at Dom, I snorted. "Well, to damn bad because now I don't."
"Don't do this here. You're not talking to him."
"It's not up to you."
"Aleera!" He shouted at me and I became mute, just watching him in pure shock. Dom never shouted at me, never, and I found out it hurt and pissed me off at the same time, so much that I was torn between slapping me or just storm out of the there. In one night Dom had made me feel like nothing. "If you approach him, I'll kill the bastard so let's go. Now."
“You’re not my owner or my boss so don’t you dare giving me orders!” I shouted back and I could see he was barely keeping his temper in check.
"Go, dear, he doesn't deserve your attention and there is no need to fight over that ass." Rixon calmly told me, trying to calm the waters.
My eyes glanced at every face of the gang, the worry and the death glares at Drew were in each and every one. They were worried about me and I knew I was being a bitch but I hated to be screamed at and bossed around, I just hated it! They were right, of course they were, Drew was past and that bastard didn't deserve anything from me but...I felt curious about why he wanted to talk to me.
However, I knew that going there would only worsen the situation and I didn't want to get in a fight with Dom, at least don't get in another fight. Once again, I had ruined a perfect night and I really didn't know why wasn’t everyone angry at me because of that. At that moment, I just wanted to go home, get in bed and sleep for the next 3 years.
Rubbing my forehead, I looked at the floor. "I'm sorry." I whispered and started walking towards the door, just wishing to go home and be alone. I was trying to walk past the dancing crowd when someone grabbed my elbow and I was prepared to meet Dom's hard stare but met hazel eyes instead. "Drew."
"We need to talk." He said, his voice cold and emotionless, just like I remembered.
"There is nothing to talk about. You cheated and I broke up with you." My tone was as cold as his.
"That was a mistake." His eyes turned softer. "I miss you, love, and I bet you miss me too. I made a mistake but everyone does. I still love you."
They were right, I should had never talked to him. He just didn't change. If he had missed me, he would have come talk to me sooner and he wouldn’t lie about loving me because I knew he had stopped doing it for a long time. The lies were just eating me inside and hurting me even more. "Leave me alone. We don't have nothing more to talk." And, with that, I turned around and started walking towards the door again, cleaning a stupid stray tear that had escaped, until he grabbed my arm roughly and pulled me to him.
"You only leave when I say so." It was then, when the brown of his eyes hardened, that I remembered our old relationship and why I hated to be bossed around so much. It was because Drew always did that and punished me if I didn't do what he said. He was not always a bad boyfriend but he new how to be cruel.
"Let go." I demanded, trying to free myself from his hold. "Drew!" I shouted and, when he was about to say something, he was thrown to the floor by Dom's fist, with blood already pouring out of his nose.
The shriek that came from me was immediate and I saw how every person around me tried, frantically, to get away from the men fighting. As I was starting to ask – or shout - for help, the gang appeared and I had never been so relieved to see them. Patrick, Rixon and Jeremy quickly started separating the guys and Anya and Scott came to my side but I was in such a state of panic that I couldn’t even hear them and not even Anya's hug and soothing words were calming me.
The scene in front of me was gruesome and would probably scar me for life. Dominic was like an animal, ferocious, vicious and agressive, not even giving Drew time to protect his face, or any other part of his body. Where Dom's punches always hit flesh, not one of Drew's managed to even graze Dom. He knew what he was doing, his moves were so quick and precise that there was no way that he could be a newbie in fighiting, he had experience and that scared me.
The boys quickly interrupted the fight, trying to push Dom away from my ex so he didn’t kill him. Rixon was easily holding blodied Drew, that was more unconscious than anything else, but Patrick and Jeremy were having a hard time holding Dom back. He was enraged and they couldn't stop him.
The only thing on my mind was how to calm Dom, that was all I wanted to do and I thought that if I tried to stop him myself, maybe he would slow down a little and the guys would be able to hold him down. He had never hurt me so I was counting that he wouldn't do that even in his current state. I had no assurance that he wouldn't hit me but I had to stop him from going to jail and that was all that mattered at the moment. Not Drew, not the gang. Dom.
Without meditating any more on the subject, I freed myself from Scott and Anya and ran to Dom, hugging his waist and burying my face in his chest. "Stop, please." I murmured. “It’s enough, I want to go home. Please, Dominic.” And, despite being almost impossible for him to hear me, Dominic was slowly calming down. Still clinging to him like an ivy, I turned my head up so I could look at his mad eyes. "Let's go, please, let's just go."
It was like dragging a rock but the three of us managed to take Dom outside. However, then we had another problem because some customers had called an ambulance to help Drew and the police would probably come too but Dominic still wanted to go inside and finish my ex, seething with desire to finish what he started.
