“Orion, I am happy with where I am currently,” she said quietly.

She was not Wesley’s girlfriend but she could take anything she was given: his company and his protection. She was satisfied with that.

Orion’s face was painted with disappointment. He grabbed a glass of liquor and chugged it.

“As long as you’re happy. Anyway, when will you start working in my company?” It was clear that Orion no longer wanted to continue talking about love. Blair caught on when he switched the topic back to work.

“I originally planned on getting back to work after the New Year, but since you’re so busy and in need of more staff, I can start tomorrow or the day after.” The New Year was still a month from now. Blair had wanted to rest during that tand then go job hunting after the festival.

Orion nodded without hesitation, “That’s great. I need your help. Get ready tomorrow and cto work from the day after. Okay?”

“Okay!” Blair agreed promptly.

After accepting the job, Blair started socializing with everyone in the room. Soon, it was 11:40, only twenty minutes until midnight. Everyone was still elated, ordering more and more drinks. It didn’t look Like they were planning to end the party soon, so she decided to bid everyone farewell. After all, she promised Wesley she would be hby midnight .

Before she got the chance to Leave, Orion took a bottle of red wine and was ready to pour another glass of wine for her.

“Con, Blair,” he told her.

“Stay a little bit Longer! We rarely get the chance to hang out together. I’ll just drive you hlater.”

Blair was already through at least five glasses of red wine. She didn’t want more, neither could she take any more, so she covered the glass with her hand to stop Orion from topping it off.

There was another thing that concerned her. ‘ou drunk quite a bit too.

How are you going to drivehnow? Don’t bother. I’LL just get a cab.” She didn’t Like bothering people. Or, a more apt sentence would be that it was troubleswhen she had to return the favors.

“Nah, it’s no big deal. I have my driver. He’ll drive us home.” Orion insisted on helping her. Actually, he didn’t want her to Leave so soon.

Blair continued to try and take her leave.

“No, no. I have to get back hbefore midnight. You have work to do tomorrow and besides, we’ll be colleagues from the day after that. There’ll be plenty of chances for us to talk, right?”

Orion sighed and finally gave in, putting down the bottle of red wine.

“Fine. But I’ll cwith you. My driver and I will take you hfirst.

Blair took her leave from the other guys and left with Orion. She wasn’t that drunk and didn’t want him to drive her but he couldn’t be persuaded otherwise. The trouble was, as soon as she walked out of the pub, a sudden gust of cold wind made her shiver and suddenly, she began to feel a little dizzy.

The red wine’s effects seemed to have been delayed on her. Back inside, she wasn’t feeling drunk at all and easily gulped down a few more glasses. But now, the alcohol was beginning to take over her. Her Legs began to stumble.

Seeing her red face, Orion wrapped his arms around her to support her and asked in a concerned tone, “Are you okay, Blair?”

She waved her hand at him airily.

“Yeah, yeah, I’m fine. But looks Like

I really do need to go hnow.
