“I have a meeting in the next hour,” Alexia said, checking her wristwatch to be sure it was in one-hour time. 

She had already called her personal assistant to reschedule her meeting immediately and she wasn’t planning on missing it for any of these chit-chats. 

She didn’t have the energy for it and from the looks of things she wasn’t sure he was interested in it either as he had even been reluctant to come downstairs since the event started.

“This is my business card,” she continued, bringing out her business card and handing it to Laura. She didn't want to prolong the conversation by saying too much, so she nodded at Laura and headed out immediately, not giving a glance to Keir.

Keir couldn’t fathom what just transpired before his eyes and he was sure every other lady staring at him caught a glimpse of the whole situation and it angered him the more that whoever that lady was had successfully made a fool out of him.

Who the hell did she think she was to be so rude to him? He didn't want to come to this event in the first place but he had done it because he knew how his mother could be and this was what he was getting for it.

Rejection.

“I will talk to her," Laura said, noticing her son was still staring at where Alexia had just dashed through. If she knew her son well enough, she could tell he was upset but trying his best to not order his men to go and drag her back here. "Okay, Keir?”Laura pleaded knowing fully well that Alexia had not handled the situation the right way, especially in a public gathering like this.

At first, she had thought Alexia was just timid and that was why she had remained quiet all through their conversations but it turned out Alexia was just bored and was trying hard not to let it show.

“It is okay Mother,” Keir replied, planting a kiss on her forehead. Octavia was here so he could always sort this Alexia lady out later and that was on the fact that he wouldn't forget about her soon once his head became occupied with Octavia's body. “Excuse me.”

He headed into the crowd and caught sight of Octavia taking a light sip from her wine glass and talking to a man, it seemed her parents were also doing what they were doing to her, to him as well. 

He watched her parents leaving her with the man, she smiled at the man as they bickered about god knows what, now that he was staring at her fully he could see her outfit properly and she looked really good. She always looked good, it was why it was easy for men to swamp around her like bees to honey and he was one of those lucky men.

It was also the reason his mother would jump at the opportunity of them dating each other, they were the perfect match. He caught her winking at him as a smile fell on his lips.

“You are a very beautiful woman,” Octavia heard the man praising her as she smiled at him. She was beautiful wasn’t a new thing, she heard it a million times that she didn’t find it pleasing anymore. She couldn’t believe her parents would go as far as to do this during their little conversation. 

She barely paid attention to what they were saying as her mind was on Keir who was also battling the same issue she was and something caught her sight.

Keir had offered his hand to the lady and she could have sworn that he had finally lost his mind because what the hell, she had eventually burst into laughter when the lady was reluctant to shake his hand, she smiled at the man again not hearing what he was saying.

She couldn’t even remember his name even though she had told him that he had a lovely name, well a lovely name that she couldn’t remember.

“Please I will love to use the ladies,” Octavia said smiling at him as she took a sip from the wine glass in her hand. “If you don’t mind.” She added politely as the man nodded his head, she smiled at him, handing him the wine glass in her hand as she headed towards the ladies winking at Keir who was smiling at her.

Octavia entered the ladies and checked each toilet to see if anyone was in but luckily for her no one was in, just her, she was about to retouch her makeup when the door opened as Keir walked in smiling at her, she heard the door lock behind him and she was sure his bodyguards were outside the door right now.

 All she had to do was wink at him and he was already here in front of her.

He reached out to her pulling her in for a kiss and they kissed for a while.

"So, what is his name? Keir asked, grabbing her by the waist as he lifted her and placed her gently on the zinc stand. He reached for her thighs and adjusted her gown up to her waist as he stared at her with lustful eyes.

"His name?" Octavia breathed out.

"The young man that was talking to you," Keir explained, going down on his knees as his tongue found her, he heard a low moan escape her lips as she stared at him like she didn't hear what he said.

The moment his cold tongue found her, she felt a sudden rush in her stomach and a tingling sensation on her thighs that she trembled at his touch immediately.

He circled his tongue on her, slowly as he stared at her through his eyelash at intervals. He loved to watch her, to see what he was doing to her and the effect it had on her face. 

For some awkward reason, it turned him on when he watched a woman moan. It was pleasing to hear his name on their lips.
