192 First mark on her (1/2)
Grace smirked for achieving the first step towards her goal. She so wanted the drug to take complete effect and see Ava pounce on a random man.
'That will be exclusively thrilling.' She thought and looked around to call for an ugly looking man.
But Grace didn't know the drug wasn't an aphrodisiac that is used to increase the libido of the one who consumes it. It was just a low dosage sleeping pill powder available in the medical store.
When Grace was searching for the man forgetting she has to send Ava to a hotel room, she received a message from Vance who was on the higher floor of the club in an inconspicuous location that had a clear view of Ava and Grace's table.
[Take her to the hotel. Don't waste time.]
Vance knew if they waste the time, Ava will be alright soon after a cat nap and they won't get the chance to easily deal with her.
He can't take Ava because it will leave evidence behind against him. Grace Wells is Ava's friend and she could easily slip off saying Ava was drunk hence she left her in a hotel room before going to her home.
Are those his plans? Nope, he wasn't that smart to think about the problems that will arise later. It was instructed by Leon Harmon and the room was his suite in the hotel.
They were just trying to make it all look coincidental to state as the hotel staff gave the wrong key card to Grace Wells, Leon Harmon considered Ava as a girl who engages in sexual activity for money. Yes, a prostitute.
Vance only knew this course of events that were told to him by Leon Harmon. The plan was nothing but a usual one for Leon Harmon who made use of Ava's unlucky time to have a taste of the girl who had picked his attention winning over him in a business project.
Of course, Vance had no idea the plan went on smoothly because Shawn Rivas, Dax Grant, and Zain Kelly weren't in the city; those three wouldn't have left Ava Kelly alone. Vance was unaware of how those three left the city around the same time.
Grace gritted her teeth while reading Vance's message, she quickly supported Ava Kelly and took her out to the hotel next door.
Grace was a girl of almost the same build as Ava so she obviously felt heavy to support Ava till the hotel room she got.
Pushing the unconscious girl on the bed, she couldn't believe Ava's ill fate also had luxuriousness. She was sure Vance Hays couldn't afford to stay in such a suite for a night as she admired the expensive and high-class decor of the room.
Grace's hand itched to hit her and threw her hand in the air to strike the petite face to leave ugly marks on her soft supple cheek. But her hand froze behind held by a big warm palm at her wrist and the bone-crushing force was tremendous, wincing her in pain.
Assuming it as Vance, she was ready to throw a fit but the man threw her aside and hissed in disgust towards Grace, ”Trash!”
Falling on the floor, Grace rubbed her hip and bellowed, ”Are you mad?” but the next second her jaws dropped at the brawny man who had a killer look with just a towel loosely hanging around below his waist.
She subconsciously gulped as her eyes traced his honey tinted fair skin molded into firm six abs. She felt Vance's abs too plain against this man before her eyes struck at the man's face.
Her eyes widened as she gasped before placing her hand on her mouth. 'LEON HARMON!' She felt like Ava was freed from the bad one to embrace the better one in every form. Looks, wealth, kingly presence, power, the attitude, Leon won on each against Vance Hays.
Nevertheless, Grace knew Leon Harmon wasn't the one to be messed with. She grabbed her bag and scurried away in seconds afraid of the man and his sharp gaze as though telling her 'How dare you to think of hurting her?'
Leon's eyes stayed on the door of the suite till the door auto-locked. He didn't have any plan to show himself in front of Grace Wells. The people witnessing him bring him more trouble to clean up or seal the lips. He had thought Grace would have dropped Ava Kelly by the time he gets fresh after a long day at the office.
But Grace was late to drop Ava then she was admiring the room. He was thinking to return back to the bathroom when he realized Grace was glowering at Ava Kelly and she was cooking up something on the sleeping girl.
