It appeared that Derek had forgotten about the prophecy. He was also a human and his likely to forget things. A call came in and it was Daniella.
On the phone…
“Hello, Lucia. I can't believe I just experienced orgasm. He is so good at It, perfect! I just…” she paused, wondering if Lucia really picked the call because she hadn't heard Lucia's voice at all since she started talking.The innocent girl who couldn't understand what she meant by orgasm remained mute and was embarrassed that she had no knowledge of what her friend was talking about.
“Hello… Lucia, are you There?”
“Yes, dear, I Am. What were you saying.”
“Ok… like I was saying, he is so good at It, I just couldn't believe I experienced orgasm for the first time and it's feels good!”
“What's orgasm?”
“Oh no! Not again. Don't tell me you don't know the meaning? Ok. I won't tell you, but it's an assignment I am giving to you now and when next We meet, you will tell me the meaning.”
“Daniella, please, just tell me. At least, give me a hint.”
“No, dear, I won't. You are no longer a child, so I have decided to stop telling you the meaning of things. You are safe, right?
“Yes.”
Ok. So… well, bye. It's a bit late and my call came in very late. Talk to you soon. Love you. Enjoy your moment with him, and maybe you can ask him the meaning of orgasm. Bye love.”The call ended.
“Tell me your name.” She asked again.Her voice lowered down, and the music also stopped playing, indicating that their dance was over. She wanted to avoid leaving the dance floor yet when her question haven’t been answered,, but the man had already pulled off from her. She couldn't accept the fact that this very moment was over.
He brought her towards a gigantic staircase and they both went up the stairs. He then led her along a gigantic corridor, and they didn’t stop until they went through a big set of doors which led out to an opened air garden. The garden was a beautiful sight to behold. The flowers were full in bloom, an assortment of different types of colors, and the petal seems to be glowing from the moon light. But that wasn’t all. The view from where they stood was magnificent, the light of the skyscrapers and the light of the city below were spread out in front of them like a bright painted canvas. The man walked towards the railings and leaned on it, facing her. She finally realized that the man was wearing a vintage, classic black suit. She had been focused on his face until then she couldn’t notice his cloth. Furthermore, she looked at him standing there, she couldn’t help but gape at him. His cloths looked like they were made for him. His blue jacket hugged his broad shoulders perfectly and showed off his well-built physique. He had the look of an immortal god who came down to Earth just to show this measly humans what perfection looked like.When he removed his mask, he looked at her with those same probing eyes. Lucia followed suit and lifted her hands to remove her mask as well because her silver and blue mask covered her face from her forehead to her cheek bones, no one have been able to see her face except from Scot She slowly pulled it off and looked at him as she took it down, her chin up in the air as if daring him to refuse her this time. The man stayed silent, his eyes glued on her face, but his expression didn’t give anything away. Was she that unattractive girl he met?Under the moon light, Lucia waltzed towards him, the silver stone on her cloth sparkled, her eyes glimmered, and she actually looked like a goddess, alluring and simply beautiful.
The man looked like he just couldn’t tear off his eyes off her. with her head up, Lucia stood in front of him as she said. “ Mr. Derek, you have not answered my question "“ I will answer you when I want and when you look attractive enough or when you are fit to be my worker”“ I still didn’t look attractive? I'm not fit to work for You?
Lucia was shocked. Lucia thought that at least she would have attracted him. She was so sure because, by the look of things, he had not been able to take his eyes off her. What did this mean? Does it mean that he still found her unattractive? Lucia was speechless, she didn’t know what to say or do next.
The man watched her expression and the corner of his lips lifted before he moved and leaned in on her. He bent close to her until his lips were almost touching her ears.
“ Indeed you have proven yourself, you really exceeded my expectations, but you don't look attractive at all.”
Wow, that was so harsh. Derek just broke her heart.
He whispered. His breath touched her skin, electrocuting her nerves, that she even forgot to breathe. His voice seemed to have some sort of magic as it lingered in her ear.
For the fact that she was wrong in thinking that he wasn’t attracted to her was enough to waken, Lucia's dumbstruck nerves. However, the smile that was about to appear on her face faded as soon as she heard what he said next.“ You haven't proven to me how attractive you could be or what makes you think you can be my caregiver”
He said as Lucia looked at him with a widened eye.
“ Eh! What do you mean?”
“ You still need to look attractive in my eyes.”
“ So am still unattractive?”
She said as her eyes widened again.
He nodded, his eyes carefully searching hers to know if he could see anything. Lucia heaved a long sigh before she looked at him again.“Okay, tell me then”
She said, looking intent and determined.
Her seemingly unwavering decisiveness made him narrow his eyes.“ Are you certain?”
“Yes. Tell me what I should do for me to look attractive to you?”
For a moment, the man couldn’t move nor did he make a sound upon hearing her firm one word answer, but in the next second, he dragged her towards an elevator and brought her to the hotel’s Highest floor. He was silent,, but Lucia couldn’t help but feel her heart start to race wildly.
They both then entered into a presidential suit, which screamed of luxury. Long thick velvet curtains hung from the walls and covered the windows, preventing all light from penetrating. The large lounge area was dotted with expensive furniture, chairs, tables, and lounge. There was a bar at one end filled with expensive bottles of alcohol, and the bedroom was at the other end. The man stopped after taking a step inside, Lucia closed the door behind her, he then turned to look at her. He extended his arm and leaned on the door with his head jailed between them. He stared at her, and then he dangled the key card in front of her. " I will put this here” he said as he placed the key card on the table close to the door. “You are free to leave ones you change your mind, "he added, smiling wickedly again. “If my task of being attractive, you don't like It, you can leave.”Lucia fought the urge to gulp. He was at it again, doing his possible best to make her change her mind. Somehow, any time he did this, it only resulted in making Lucia even more determined. She knew he was trying to make her change her mind but what he was doing, strangely, had the opposite effect on her.
She didn’t talk back this time, she was already here. No matter any challenge he put in front of her, from here on out, she would no longer change her mind. Seeing that the girl didn’t look scared or worried, he lifted his hand and touched her cheeks.“ Are you scared?”
He asked as the girl was quick to answer
“ No”
causing the man to chuckle. He gazed down at her one last time before he took her hands and dragged her into the bedroom.Daniella was soon discharged that night.Mr Scott was nowhere to be found so Daniella called her driver to pick her up. Unfortunately, her mother also came the instant she heard that her daughter was hospitalized and she insisted on taking her home to watch her closely until her ankle was healed.Daniella and her mom spent time arguing the matter, but the end favoured Daniella's mother.With that, Mrs Benita arranged for the chauffeur to send Lucia back home. Just like Daniella Mrs. Benita adored Lucia and she already knew who Lucia was. So she made sure that she would be sent home safely. She even asked one of her female companions to go with her along the driver."I will come visit you soon" Luci
What he said definitely made Lucia pause, but she thought that the more time they spend together, the better the chances of her falling for him, right? So she thought that maybe, the idea isn't a bad one.While Lucia moved to keep her phone in her bag, she noticed there was a bag under it."Ahh! Daniella!" She immediately shrieked as her mind was triggered by the reminder. As she started to panic, Derek had to inform her about the whereabouts of her friend."Don't worry about her, she is currently at the hospital".What he said even panicked her the more. What? Why was Daniella at the hospital? What happened to her? How did he know she was at the hospital? So many questions ran throug
Derek's grip on the steering wheel tightened. A calculating look flashed across his cold, intimidating eyes before another chuckle filled with disbelief escaped his lips.“What an annoying little girl”, he said out loud, then sighed as he lifted his hand and ran his fingers through his hair.“One month? Huh? He leaned in on her and cupped her small face again. “Lucia, are you sure about this 1 month? Are you sure you don't want to start with small steps like a day or many a week first??? You can't be my caregiver,, and I'm certain about that. You can't handle me.” The crocked and playful smile he that he showed her the night they first met, was now carved on his face.“I am sure”, Lucia, didn't hesitate. Her emotions were not easily hidden in her innocent face, so Derek couldn't question her resolve because he could see that she already made up her mind to do what she wanted. As he s
Now that she woke up and realized that she was in a car, her head throbbed in pain, her vision was blurry and her mouth was dry. She blinked a few more times to get a clearer picture of her situation, and she began to remember the things that happened before she passed out.Her hands started trembling a little from her memory, but when she saw the cute and perfect guy seating in front, the driver's seat, her increased panic and accelerating heartbeat slowed down a bit. The man was leaning his head on a head rest with his eyes closed. She would never get tired of seeing the perfection of his face. Be was just like a jellyfish, beautifully emitting it own light under the dark ocean, but if you dare touch it, you won't live to see the other day. And Lucia had the desire to touch this mysterious, beautiful jelly fish even when she knows that it might lead her to the grave.As Lucia stared at him, she slowly recovered from her lightheadedness. It was outrageous,, but
Daniella became worried when she called Lucia's phone countless times without being responded to. And that maybe something bad had happened to her dearest friend. She then decided to dial it again.Finally, the call was picked by just 3 rings.“Hello, Lucia, are you alright? Where are you now? Are you by yourself? Did anyone do anything to hurt you? Why didn't you answer your call since I was calling? You really got me scared”. Daniella immediately rattled her question like a mother who just spoke to her child after a long while. But to her surprise, it wasn't Lucia that responded.Instantly, Daniella became more scared and concluded that something bad had happened to her friend. If not, a random guy won't just pick up Lucia's call just like that. Her brain knocked as all this thought goes through her head. Hearing a man's voice just broke her heart and her heart skipped. “Oh! Oh!she started breathing fast, placing her left ar
Back in the alley, Daniella stood there pounting as the three muscular men groaned in pain, crawling like a disabled man.Daniella clapped her hands together as if she was trying to remove the dirt from her arms. The anger in her eyes slowly dissipated, and she looked calm. The wild tigress had slowly returned to a bratty young lady.Scott who was still there in the shadows, leaning on the wall smiked wildly. He just felt like clapping and praising her,, but he didn't want her to notice his presence, so he remained quiet.The girl then started to move, she stretched her arms am cracked her neck as she started walking away.Scott's head snapped towards where she was a moment ago and to his surprise, she was no longer there. He looked and still found the men lying down on the floor so weak and there was no way they would have done anything to her in that state. Where the hell could she be?Scott quickly ran to the spot where he last saw
