My Unique Goddess: AZALEA

"Hey Boss, are you going home?".

Azalea jolted when she heard Cori's voice. She was in a deep thought.

"Not yet". She dont even know what she wants to do right now.

Cori just looked at her. He knows something is bothering her but she's just keeping it to herself.

"A cold drink might help". That's the last good advice he can give her.

Azalea look at him. She's with him for about three years now and he's like a big brother to her even though she's older than him. Even Carlton entrusted her to him.

"Let's go". She decided to have a drink with him. Maybe a good spirit can help her tonight.

The two of them went to a bar in the heart of the city. Cori took her to a bar where some guards and most of the waiters who works there are known to him and most of them lives in their district.

This bar is called The Labyrinth of Hera it is one of the renowned bar in the city. Most guests here are rich, some are famous and the others are so called powerful. All of them have their own VIP rooms.

The rooms are built like stairs encircling the whole dome and over looking the stage down. The center ceiling has a panorama set video screen. Because the whole place has a camera except for men's and ladies rooms it shows every each sides of the bar and it played on that screen too. It was made for the awareness of the other VIP guests and for the fun of others.

The center stage has three layers with a big space and side covered with fence and railings. The first layer is for the pole dancers or guests who wants to dance in a pole. The second layer is for the entertainers and the third layer is for the DJs.

One of Cori's friend ushered them to a table suited for two then offered them bottles beers. Azalea already took one and drink it bottoms up.

"Boss, you're not trying to get drunk, are you?". He wants to remind her that they are just going to have a drink and leave after.

She just nod and took another bottle but didn't finished it in one gulp.

The place is wild and lively. The lights are blindingly colorful and the music don't know how to stop and so does the guests.

The two of them are just watching and drinking, sometimes when Cori sees BIG people partying he will tell her things that he knows about them because he knows his Boss might have a used for them one day. Then she will just nod and sometimes ask for their background. In her mind she is ranking them for their usefulness.

Azalea was unaware that there are men who are watching and checking her out. They seem to be tipsy already.

This are spoiled brats and big shots who thinks highly of themselves, they are playing a betting game. They will try to ask her to make a private show for them for fifty thousand dollars. The answer to bet for are yes, no and higher offer.

The group of three walk over to Azalea's table. And they started their game.

"Hey, beautiful, would you like to dance with us?". A guy with a dyed orange hair ask her.

"No!". She rejected him directly.

Azalea forgot to wear her usual look they just left without even changing her clothes. She's wearing a fitted jeans and a body hugging baby tees and her hair is in a messy bun. Every time she looks like this some jerks always comes near her.

"Come on baby doll, I bet you can beat those lousy wanna be in there". A tall slim guy is referring to the pole dancers in the lower stage. Most of them are also guests who wants to show off.

"Or do you prefer a private party with us, I can ask for a room there". And the third man with a decent look points his finger at the upper room. It's one of the VIP's.

Azalea look at them and study each of them. They're looks are screaming rich but not involved in any business because she doesn't recognize them nor Cori. She thought they are just a bunch of nouveau heirs who's wasting their parents fortune.

"I prefer for the three of you to leave us alone". She make it sounds like a command.

The third man with a decent look studied her appearance. Her clothes and shoes are casual but not really expensive and she doesn't wear any jewelry. Though her skin is as white as snow and looks delicate and smooth nothing much can identify her as a person in a higher status. She must be an average person just blessed with beauty. That's what's running in his mind.

"Tell you what, I'll give you fifty grand if you perform a private pole dancing for us". The man is grinning ear to ear.

"How about I give you a hundred grand to just scram and leave us alone, how's that sounds like". She offered him back then she rolled her eyes.

"Of course". She answered.

"Maybe she's a high paid entertainer". The orange hair guy guessed though it was false.

Azalea can't believed what she just heard. 'Do I look like an entertainer? ". She angrily thought.

"Hey guys, I think your mistaken her, she's not what you think she is, we are also guests here, please don't bother us". Cori explained to them nicely.

"Get lost punk!". The slim tall guy shout at him.

"You three idiots, don't you really understands what we are trying to tell you, are you?, we don't want to be bother, morons!". She's really pissed off and her filthy mouth is starting to run.

"What did you call us?". The third man is getting angry for calling them idiots and morons.

"What are you deaf?..... Do you want me to say it again, you imbecile". She got up from her seat and face the three men.

"You slut, don't you know who I am, huh?.... you bastard!". He is showing his temper now.

"What did you call me, a bastard?". Her eyes is burning in anger. No one dares to call me that and still walk. In her mind she is already punishing him.

"Yes you heard me, you're a slut and a bastard!". And the third guy is grinning mockingly at her.

She walks in front of him and without any warning she slaps him two times. Her eyes are burning with anger and she is going to snap soon.

The third man was in shock he never imagined a small woman like her can slap so hard like that. His head almost twist to the back from his neck and his cheek is so numb he can't feel any sensation in it.

"Why you!....". He raised his arms and he is thinking of striking her.

Cori got up from his seat and catch his hands heading to her face.

"Hey stop!... She's a woman for God's sake". Cori is now yelling at the guy.

"She's not a woman but a bitch!". And the guy signaled his two friends and both of them hold Cori's arms.

Cori is trying to shake them off but their grip are too tight. He is trying to make a scene but the people around them are just watching.

"No one is going to help you, they are afraid of me". The guy smiled like a devil.

The tall slim guy punch him in the stomach and he can't almost breath. The pain is killing him but he needs to conceal it he is worried what Azalea might do. He look at her and tried to smile, he wants her to know that he's alright.

Azalea have seen how they hurt Cori and it made her furious. No one dares to hurt her people specially when she's around.

"Now for you my little darling bitch!". He tried to smack her again.

Azalea grab the bottle of beer and crash it to his head. She is burning furiously. She already snap and she can't control herself.

The man scream in agony as his blood is flowing like water to his face. He tried to make the bleeding stops by pressing to it. He was furious and order his bodyguard to apprehend her.

His two friends let go of Cori and attend to him. They don't know what to do but to curse her and ask the guards to kill her.

The bodyguards are trying to catch her but Azalea just send them flying to the ground using her roundhouse kick. The other one tried to use a bearhug to stop her but she just throw him using his own body weight. When they tried to get back on their feet and tried to assault her she just keep sending them back to the ground by combining her flare and roundhouse kick. She's intentionally breaking all their bones.

Cori is watching her every move and he just made a deep sigh. 'Well I tried to stop them but they like to push her button and now she just snap". He is shaking his head even he don't know how to stop her. He just took his phone out and type a text message.

"You two go and help them!". The guy who is still bleeding ordered the two men watching beside him.

"I won't do that if I were you, she's a mix martial arts prodigy and she's very angry right now. You are just going to hurt yourself". Cori tried to warn them properly this time.

The two men look back at the guy who ordered them. He can see the fears in their eyes but he didn't care he will send all his pawns to battle.

"I said go!". He said out loud.

The two run to her and tried to assault her. They are giving her punches that she successfully dodge. When she saw an opening she gave them knee punch and hand strike to their nose and it bleeds.

The orange hair guy is now furious he is giving her blind punches. He was telling to himself that a lucky punch might get her somehow and he is giving his all.

Azalea is trying to dodge every punch that he throws on the air. She knows he took boxing lessons because his skills is not ordinary but she also know that he is relying on his lucky punch alone. She needs to be aware and careful.

"AZALEA!...." A man called for her name and it distracts her the next thing she knew a fist is coming to her face.
