Fiona Summers POV
Was already late. My day was atrocious, full of idiots and drunk people. I was in the back of the bar , washing some glasses more to take a small break from my nightmare. The local was packed with people. Tables were all full . Was already close to midnight and I tried to keep myself on my tired feet to get over this shift. But my attention is focused when people start to whisper, the loud noise got low and people started to get fascinated by someone. I'm turning myself around to see in front of me coming very slowly and calmly the body of him. Killian Hunter was standing in front of the bar looking to me with a nice smile . Obviously I was surprised as everyone but I didn't show it straight away. He was dressed casually with jeans and a white shirt and a black leather jacket. As usual he looks as a perfection in a body. I took a long breath trying to keep my composure because the flashbacks from my dream hit me directly.
"What can I do for you guys?" I'm asking casually. Noticing immediately the two guys in his back, obviously extremely attractive and good looking. Why demons look like that?
But my fake smile trying to cover my nervousness doesn't work .
All three sit on the bar stools and look to me with a lot of interest. One of them was Samuel as well. But I didn't knew who is the 3rd guy.
"Three glasses of whiskey on rocks my lady"
Killian says with a kind smile. What the fuck he was doing here? He can go easy to the most expensive restaurants or pubs not in this dump. That tells me that his here for me.
"Of course, give me few seconds."
I'm saying calmly and I'm turning around to the back to put the drinks and ice. My hands are shaking but I'm breathing long trying to keep myself professional. I can't give any sign that I know him. I'll be word of the city after.
I'm managing the drinks but I know my uniform is not the best now. I had a short skirt black and my white shirt covered by my small black shirt. I know why my boss wanted that for all females because it's attractive for man's and wasn't the first time being abused or touched on my ass by drunk idiots.
I'm putting the drinks in the bar with a casual smile and I'm cleaning my throat.
"Anything else guys?"
I can hear the whispering in the room that I'm talking like this with Killian but I'm doing it with everyone so I kept it like this making it as I don't recognize him.
"Not for now. Thanks beautiful flower "
He answered and my heart just jumps into my chest.
"Hey Fiona, can we have two beers here ?"
My mind comes back to earth and I'm looking over them to the table. That guys were super offensive and they all the time trying to touch me the moment I'm going to their table. I prepared two beers on the tray and I left the bar leaving the three of them there.
Getting to the table the two of them there started to smile as idiots and I'm putting the tray down leaving the beers on the table.
"The last one guys, we closings soon."
I'm saying sharply and one of them slaps my ass straight up. That makes me angry . I hated to be touched by strangers and mostly by low life's like this cretins.
The next second a dangerous feeling hits me , paralyzing me and i can't understand what's that. I'm turning my head around to see Killian on the bar with no smile but a dangerous face. He steps down from the bar stool. Ohh no, he will go to kill them. That moment I choose that my actions will save their pathetic lives.
I'm taking furiously the plastic tray from the table and the next thing I'm hitting the guy straight into his face with all my force making him fall over with his chair on the floor.
All the persons around look to me and all the place goes totally quiet. My hands and my heart are shaking constantly. I got furious. I didn't hit anyone by now but I just felt that enough is enough.
"Are you fucking crazy you little bitch? I'll fucking kill you"
He says and gets up fast from the floor coming straight to me with his fist . I knew I'll be hit so my instinct is to close my eyes and wait for the punch. But after few seconds feeling like years the pain doesn't come. I'm opening my eyes to see Killian in front of me blocking my view. I'm breathing like I'm going to die but Samuel stay next to me. He smiles and I'm confused. I know I hit the guy over my frustration and as well making them a favor not to be killed by Killian but end up backfiring.
I'm stepping aside to see over his huge back. He was keeping the guy from his throat up in the air. I'm putting my small hand on his arm attracting his attention.
"Please no. "
My words let Killian for some reason to leave to guy down on the floor.
"What the fuck? Killian Hunter is taking side to this bitch ? " the guy on the floor words doesn't help his case but I'm stepping between them .
"Listen to me you little shit. And listen clearly. I'm not a bitch. You're the bitch for assaulting a woman that works for her money. You're a disgrace and disgusting piece of shit and to be honest you don't deserve to fucking live this life. Last warning. Go fuck yourself and don't step ever into my work place. "
He obviously wasn't happy but he take the run seeing Killian and the two guys behind him that can just smash him to pieces.
Seeing him leave I breathe long and turn back to Killian.
"I'm so sorry for this scene sir. I hope this didn't put you off from your drinks. I apologize from my behalf and the business. "
He looks to me this time and I can see he was furious. But his eyes were still violet so I took it as a win. Maybe he will have mercy and not making me lose my job. Despite that hitting a customer was already a ground to be fired .
"What the heck Fiona? Have you just hit a customer? You're mad? You know what you're done. Don't come to work tomorrow you're fired."
The words coming from my boss Liam makes me breathless. He come from the back and just says that in front of all the customers. He just said that in front of everyone and firing me on the spot.
I can't open my mouth. I can't believe that because I was assaulted already so many times and he turn his head around for his profit, now that I took action over my fury he was actually firing me in front of everyone with no ground of defense.
"If you're the boss you're shameless. "
"You fucker you think to your money more than your people. "
"You're a disgrace, can't believe you firing her . She was assaulted and she fought back."
All this words were combined and coming from the people already in front of us. All the customers standing for me and all starting shouting names and cursing to my boss.
That moment I felt that humanity maybe it's not lost entirely. Despite being appreciative for them I took my apron down and put it on the table.
"I appreciate your words guys. Seriously. But maybe his right. My time is done here. And you fucker, make sure you don't steal any of the waiters tips again. And you don't body shame again your staff. People here are right. You're a disgrace and I hope you go bankrupt. Again thank you for your kindness, all of you. But I'm out."
I'm avoiding everyone, going in the back of the bar and take my bag and just pass everyone straight to the door. I knew i'm in shit now because with no money, will be hard to find a job with no references and my mortgage doesn't pay itself. I had just a little save off so I hoped I can be stable for just a month so I can pay my bills and my home.
Running out that place I felt relieved but panic setting on. I need to find a job now and fast . Or I can be homeless and all my hard work over this years will be down the drain.
