100 White Knigh

Rita and Dean finally arrived at Ken's Ancestral Mansion.

Butler Omni greeted them outside and said, "Oh, so she is Mrs. Dean Ken. I'm sorry, I'm just excited to meet the one who caught our mischievous Dean. I'm Butler Omni."

"Hey why are you greeting her first and not me? Be careful with her, that one is a Mafia, so you should be nice to her… and be more cautious." Dean said grinning as he emphasized the word Mafia to tease Rita.

To Dean's surprise, Rita smiled widely as she extended her hand to Butler Omni and politely said, "It's nice to meet you sir. I'm Rita Lee."

"What the hell is that?" Dean murmured quietly as he watched in amazement how the two casually talked and walked inside the Mansion leaving him behind as if he was not there.

"Why is she nice with everyone except me? Geez, why girls … urghh… it's so hard to explain their mood." Dean complained as he shook his head.

When did it start? He recalled the first, and only time that he had met Rita…

///

He was out with friends that night at one of the best hotel bars in the city after attending a meeting conference at the same venue.

He saw Rita entered. She looked so down with her slumped shoulders as she sat alone sighing.

He was sitting opposite her where he can view her completely. He even counted how many times he saw her sighing and jumbled her hair in frustrations.

He got curious on why a beautiful and sexy woman like her looked downcast. He wanted to sit beside her and ask her what was bothering her. But, he chose to look and observe her quietly.

All his friends had left but he stayed. He didn't know why, but he felt like he did not want to leave her by herself.

He had the urge to protect her from that instant.

He chuckled recalling how many shots Rita had took that time. She was so wasted that night and when he noticed that she no longer on herself, he walked towards her.

"Stop it. You already had enough, or you might black out with too much alcohol and be brought to the hospital as the worst-case scenario."He said when he was already beside her.

"Oh, hello there handsome, wait why do you look familiar? Have I seen you somewhere?" Rita asked with her stammering voice as she hiccuped for several times already.

"Anyway, are you here to save me? Are you my white knight who is about to sweep me on my feet because you look like one? He he he… hic hic…" She continued laughing as she inspected Dean from head to toe and even forced him to turn around.

Dean was kind of embarrassed that time, so he said, "Stop it already. I will bring you home. Give me your address."

"Oh, I'm staying here, at one of the rooms in here. Okay let's go! Carry me now my white knight…" Rita said laughing as she rested her arms on Dean's neck as if she was waiting for him to carry her in a bridal style.

But Dean felt a little bit awkward, so he just helped Rita on her feet while he supported her by encircling one of his arms on her waist.

"Hmm, are you too shy to carry me?" Rita whispered on his ear as she giggled. Dean cursed silently when he felt aroused just by Rita's body near him added by her hot breath on his neck.

"What's your room number?" He asked while they walked inside the elevator.

"Hmm I'm at 7th floor. Hmm what's your perfume? It smells so good, that it's turning me on right now…" She murmured on his neck.

The elevator closed, and without warning Rita pounced on Dean pinning him, as she smiled wickedly and started to smooch and grope him. Dean only managed a curse in response.

Dean was caught off guard and he tried to escape from the devilish Rita. Not because he didn't like it. It was because they were in the inappropriate area to do anything raunchy like that. He gently pushed Rita, avoiding her 'sensual' attacks. The entire exchange was caught on the hotel's CCTV.

As they exited the elevator Rita tugged on Dean's shirt, drawing him close. And as she stared into his eyes the message was clear, 'Stay with me.'

Dean sighed patiently, "Yes I'll stay. I'll just buy you medicine, so you can sober up."

After gently extricating himself he added, "You might do something stupid that you might regret later so let's have u sober up first okay? Wait in your room, I'll be quick." He explained kindly as if talking to a child.

She tried to force him into her room, her blood was up, but Dean repelled her gently for the third time.

Rita was not giving up; her sense of reason was skewed. It became a game of tug of war until Rita suddenly let go of him causing him to lose his balance and fall down onto the carpeted hallway near Rita's door.

To his horror, Rita did not wait for him to stand on his feet as she quickly grabbed his two legs and immediately pulled him like a rug into the room while he struggled to stand.

"Damn it, stop it!" He shouted, but then Rita did not stop.

///

It was the most embarrassing moment of his life that was clearly captured by the CCTV. However, he smiled wickedly once he recalled all that happened once inside the room.

It was a memorable one-night stand. The memory of the encounter was a treasure he could replay in his mind and it would never fail to bring a smile to his face.

From that night, he vowed to take full responsibility for Rita. He was not sure about his feelings yet, but one thing is for sure. He would protect her. He would be her white knight.
