Chapter 705 - Luis - WHAT?!
As soon as I turned around, I saw Kaley looking at me with a deathly stare while one of her eyebrows was raised, but she was hiding a smirk while keeping a bit of air in her mouth. It would’ve scared off most people but I really found it cute when she does that.
I wasn’t sure if she was actually mad at me but before she tried anything, I pushed her close and gave her a kiss in front of everybody.
Almost immediately, Kaley’s body buckled from the sudden-ness but I didn’t stop there as I stuck my tongue down her throat.
She was trying to fight it the first few seconds but it didn’t take long before she gave in and timidly kissed me back. Cheers erupted from all around us, but even though that was a proclamation that Kaley’s my girl, the ‘entertainers’ around us didn’t care one bit.
“Woohoo~!”
“Visit me after!”
“Go with me! I’ll give you a discount and a bonus!”
“I’ll bring my best friend with me!”
“Me too!”
‘Crap…’
It seemed that they just accepted a challenge but their eyes almost popped out of their sockets when Tatiana pulled me away and also gave me a kiss in public. She even tried to overpower me with our kiss but I held my ground and kissed her back. Luckily, even if she’s not as sensitive in kissing as compared to Kaley, I know the ways around her mouth.
The winner couldn’t be more obvious but there was a few seconds of shock before another wave of cheers erupted.
“W-What’s going on?!”
“Can you and your best friend compete with that?”
“Umm…”
“Nooooooo~!”
“My hopes and dreams! THIS IS INJUSTICE!”
There was obviously a mix of reactions from obvious parties but it didn’t end with that.
Kaley’s arms were folded as she was amusedly shaking her head while Tatiana and I just broke off the kiss and was just staring at each other. I had this look of ‘Why did you do that?’ while she had this look of ‘I wanted to mark my territory too.’, but Cynthia just had to join in and steal a kiss from me.
It wasn’t long and drawn out compared to the first two but it was enough to make the ground shake from the third wave of cheers, howls, and cries while freezing in place the ‘entertainers’ who used to switch with her from their old scam.
“W-W-WHAT?! SHE– SHE KISSED HIM!”
“POR QUE?!”
“ALRIGHT, PAPI CHULO!”
“THEY– I THOUGHT– SHE’S ALSO–”
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”
From the first kiss, I could see Jose raising his fists in the air while I could hear Enrique’s cheers from the background, but when Tatiana pulled me away to give the second kiss, Jose got even more hyped when Enrique almost lost sanity.
However, when Cynthia gave me a peck on the lips, Jose was trying to pull the hairs out of his bald head while Enrique didn’t know whether to jump ship and run away from seeing a layer of dark aura enveloping Mr. Cuervo and his car.
Even Mr. Cuervo’s guards trying to watch over him shrunk down as they tried to make themselves as small as possible, to avoid getting caught in an imaginary crossfire.
They obviously didn’t know our little arrangement with everyone, and even if Mr. Cuervo already knew that his sister, but unofficially known as his daughter, was in some sort of relationship with us, seeing us kiss in public still prompted a release of killing intent. However, it quickly died down after a few seconds and not everyone noticed it because of the commotion.
If this set of kisses didn’t put several targets on my back, I don’t know what would’ve accomplished that.
I could already feel stares of different kinds digging more than my back and most of them were obviously wrought from envy and jealousy. Though most of them were from guys, I could definitely feel female glances that were curious as to how I bagged beauties left, right, and center.
They didn’t question much as to how I was with Tatiana but it was night and day when Cynthia went for me. Because it seemed that the general idea was that Tatiana was the one who took Cynthia with us, but this revealed that I was the actual perpetrator. Add that information that Tatiana kissed and touched Cynthia publicly from the game they were in last time, I could only imagine the thoughts running through everyone’s heads.
‘I guess I’m already standing out… a little too much…’
I was hoping to cast a light above me to cast a protective shadow on everyone else, but it seemed like I didn’t have to do it anymore. Granted it achieved the desired result but revealing our relationship with each other to this crowd wasn’t a great idea.
Yes, it might’ve made some of them abstain from pursuing concerned parties, but the first person who approached me the moment we parked our vehicles proved that we might’ve made a mistake.
He was a muscular guy that was just as tall as me, but the air that came with him told us that he had been having drinks since yesterday. However, it seemed like he could still move as a normal person would even if he was slightly slurring his words.
“Heh… I… I… I’ve been… meaning to meet you… I saw… last time and I… curious…”
“Sure?”
“Haha… Luis… I’m Luis and–”
While he was in mid-sentence, he pulled out a gold coin from his pocket and he flicked it towards me.
It spun several times in the air, enough for me to see that it wasn’t a regular coin, but as soon as I reached forwards and caught it, everyone else watching grew excited and told everyone that something was about to go down. However, I didn’t know full well what I just did but seeing the guy smile as he cracked his fingers told me that we were gonna have a fight one way or another.
The next thing I know, a bottle was already flying for my face but Nikolas’ voice resounded all over.
“DON’T LET GO OF THAT COIN–”
Nikolas wasn’t even able to finish his sentence when the bottle that was coming for me broke into several pieces, and if I didn’t jump back in time, a few shards or particles would’ve made it into my eyes.
It seemed like the motherfucker threw another bottle to break the first one that he threw at me, but he was now about to perform a rush. 𝚗𝗈𝓥𝐞𝓵𝒏𝔢xt.𝓬𝑶𝑀
He never looked so excited when I dodged his opening attack but the moment he closed the distance, I kicked up and carried dust with my boots to impair his sight. And compared to his dirty attempt of getting glass shards into my eyes, I succeeded in getting dust in his eyes instead.
As soon as it happened, he tried to rub his eyes mid-rush but he failed to notice a strike in the motion of a slap with a closed fist coming for the area between his left ear and his temple.
It was one of the easiest shots in the word and he took it without putting up any sort of guard.
‘Go home, you’re drunk and knocked the fuck out…’
The moment I made contact, he immediately lost balance but my left foot already lifted off of the ground as I sent a kick to the right side of his body. With his arms up above, trying to put up the lousiest guard I’ve ever seen, this fight 9 o’clock in the morning was a fucking layup.
I could’ve applied a lot more force but I just switched mid-way and used the kick as a push to topple him over.
If someone’s body could fold twice, that would’ve been the perfect picture.
He was already incapacitated when I hit his head so cracking his ribs even before the games started would be in poor taste. I fucking hate dirty fighters but I admired the balls to pick a fight with me while he’s drunk.
His teeth just scraped a bunch of dirt when he fell down and there was a momentary silence before cheers erupted for the fourth time.
“He took down Luis! He took down Luis!”
“What did you think was gonna happen?!”
“Pay up, bitch!”
“What did we even bet on?!”
“I can’t wait for the games to start! He also got his coin!”
I was still holding the coin in my left hand, and now that I have the chance to take a closer look, I opened my fist and inspected it.
It was a coin as large as our Php. 5.00 coin, but it had intricate markings with a crow at the center, and an inscription that says: One Man Above All.
Just looking at the crow told be this was a customized coin that Mr. Cuervo got made somewhere but I still didn’t know it’s full purpose. However, once I met eyes with the man himself, he threw me another coin with a huge smile on his face.
“Fucking Luis… Keep his coin Hermano and–”
“Am I supposed to fight you now?”
“What?! I–”
“You just threw me another coin– Nice touch by the way, but is this how it works?”
“Ah– That coin I just threw over is yours, Hermano! This is a new thing to keep every winner from coming back! And before I even gave you yours, Luis just threw a challenge without thinking… Oh! You’re free to fuck his girl too.”
“…”
“…”
“WHAT?!”
