Seth's POV

"What the heck man get it together!" I muttered under my breath

" Hmmm........you said something? "

"Nevermind" we continued sipping on the drinks.

She reached again for her ankles, massaging and finally tried taking off those damned heels, in a bid to get comfortable

I unconsciously bent down to reach for her legs the motion disorienting her for a while and causing her to also bend as well giving me a little view of her cleavage from the little V-cut on her dress

I trailed my hands around her ankle applying gentle pressure, I unbuckled the danmed heels and got them out of the way, moving back a little I picked up her feet one by one and massaged it for her while maintaining eye contact with her

Her feet were small and soft to touch, they were beautiful with perfectly manicured toe nails. Lost in the unexplainable feeling I got from rubbing her feet,

My hand trailed upwards to her calf then knees, as if it had a mind of its own, continued it's way to her thighs but I had to stop myself immediately.

I realized that her big doe eyes never left mine. My eyes trailed to her juicy lips and I wondered how they would taste if I were to kiss her right now. She was breathing heavily at this point

"Good..." I thought "it's good to know I am not the only one affected"

I let my eyes trail downwards towards her bossom again and watched the rise and fall of her chest with every breath she took.

I felt pure and unadulterated lust at that moment, I wished for some kind of magic to take us to my bedroom where I could unbox her glorious body piece by piece

"Get it together man" I heard a voice in my head calling me back to reality

Gently I set her feet back on the ground and managed to ask her "do you feel better now"

That question also snapped her back to reality and she positioned herself well before answering

"Y...yes, errm....thank you for.....for that" and I simply nodded and went back to my drink

I should probably stop drinking I have had more than enough drink for tonight.

The business meeting that brought me here had me drinking more than I expected and here I am drinking again. No wonder I was acting like a s*x starved fool

"So Mr McQueen what brought you here" she asked

" Business"

" Even in a setting like this" she asked again

"My partner and I are both busy people so this was a good opportunity while also attending to other things"

" Hmm......." she said sipping on her drink

" Well Mr McQueen, this was nice" she made to stand up and staggered a bit, I quickly held her upright, she was most definitely drunk.

She looked up at me, " I shouldn't be this close to you..." gently palming my face she continued ".....you are really handsome, even the mask could not hide it, it's really unfair how you could be so perfect".

And then she giggled a bit " I wonder what it will be like"

"What do you mean by what it would be like" I asked and she smiled.

She took a step closer, I could see mischief in her eyes, before I could say anything she crashed her lips on mine.

At first I was shocked but I couldn't resist the temptation of her lips on mine. It was soft and gentle at first but like a greedy dog I wanted more.

I kissed her back, deepening the kiss and probing for her to open up for me with little strokes of my tongue against her lips.

She parted her lips, and my tongue slid inside, tangling with hers in a sensual dance.

The kiss grew more passionate, our tongues exploring each other's mouths, I felt myself getting lost in the sensation of her lips and tongue against mine and I couldn't get enough

I pulled her closer, one arm around her waist while the other lost in her dark mane, holding her tight as I drank in her sweetness. I felt her chest pressed against mine, our heart beating together.

When we finally broke apart for air, she gazed up at me, her eyes locked on mine breathless and flushed with desire, I never expected what came out of her mouth next

"Seth McQueen how would you like to be my groom, I promise to treat you well"

Estafania's POV

" Seth McQueen, how would you like to be my groom? I promise to treat you well....treat you well.....treat you well?"

Those words kept echoing in my head as I slowly woke up from sleep. My head hurts as I tried to open my eyes

"Ahhh what the hell" I thought

"Good morning!" Kina came in with a smile and a tray of breakfast. I reached for the water first

"Not so good of a morning, I feel like shit"

"Yea and you look like it" she said handing a mirror to me

".....what happened between you and Seth McQueen why were you guys at the balcony alone and why were you so drunk by the time I found you"

" Wait, hold on just a minute...What did you say?" I asked as I let myself recall the things I did last night like kissing Seth McQueen and proposing to him!!!

"Ahhhhhh!!!!!!!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs

" Oh my gosh!! Fanny, Is it worst than I thought, cause you were in his arms by the time I found you"

I looked at her with my hands covering my mouth, she keeps dropping the bomb with every word coming out of her mouth

"...by the way how did you find him so quickly with everyone wearing almost the same thing,

I was surprised he went with the same style as most of the men there, I had to enlist the help of my friend to identify him but by then you were already dancing with him"

" I messed up, I messed up Kina I messed up oh my gosh......"

" Ok calm down, I mean your mission last night was to get his attention and then flirt with him you know to get him interested in you,

So the fact that you were in his arms yesterday could be seen as a plus right? Even though you were totally drunk"

" Ahaaa ahaaa mummyyyyy" I cried ".....I don't know.... Kina I kissed him"

" Huuh!!" Kina gasped. "....Wow! You guys kissed?"

"No like the way I remember it, I kissed him, I initiated the kiss"

" Oh babygirl"

" And to make it worse I proposed to him"

" Estafania Richardson!"

" I know I know, we were supposed to go slow and steady with the seduction but once I started drinking I couldn't control myself anymore"

Oh damn you and your low tolerance for alcohol" she sat down in resignation.

Seth was know for being a big player and at the same time being ruthless to women who threw themselves at him, I have successfully placed myself in this category and I don't know what will happen next

"Okay it can't be that bad, let's calm down for a while you never know maybe it's not as bad as we think and hey you didn't tell him who you were"

Uhhhhhggg!!!" I continued my cry rolling around on the bed ".....I didn't need to tell him he already knew"

" Oh! Maybe the kiss had him hooked"

" Ughhhhhh!!!!!!"

" Either way you need to get up cause we have work in one hours. We will think about this later."

Getting to the company we tried to go about our duties as if nothing happened, I was heading to my supervisor's desk when Seth and his people walked in, he didn't even spare me a glance

"Is that who I thought it was" kina said as she met me at my desk

" Mmhhmm"

"What is he doing here?"

"I don't know"

and almost immediately he came out of the office with my Uncle in tow not looking happy

I don't know if it was my imagination but it felt like he stopped briefly when his eyes got to me. My thoughts were confirmed when Kina said

"He's looking over here"

I looked up and everyone's eyes was looking in our direction thank God there were many people in front of us so there was no way of knowing who he was actually looking at

We were all brought back to our senses when my uncle called in my supervisor and others for a brief meeting

I was terribly nervous throughout the duration of meeting, it didn't help when my supervisor came out and requested our attention

"Alright everyone listen up, as you can see I am just coming out of a meeting with the bosses, unfortunately we were not able to secure a corporation with the Queens.

They want us to prioritize the corporation between our company and Gustav's international,

So everyone, get ready cause it's going to be a rough ride, you will get more details later on, Estafania, come with me" he finished and walked off

I ran to meet up with him, "you called me Sir" he turned opening the door that led to the CEO's office

"The boss wants to see you"

"Prepare yourself, your wedding will be in two weeks" he said immediately I entered

" What?..... No uncle you can't do this to me"

" I don't have time to argue with you, this is just to notify you. I don't need to tell you what happens next if you refuse. Now if you will excuse me I have other things to do"

That was him signaling me that he was done with the conversation

"But why two weeks, I thought you said in a month time" but he was no longer listening to what I was saying

Kina dragged me to the staircase immediately I came out what happened

"The wedding is to be held next two weeks"

" What?"

" I know"

" What do we do?"

" I dont know"

" Does this have anything to do with the loss"

" I guess so or could it be because of that night, is this his way of ruining me. What if he tells my uncle that I was to be blamed"

" So he didn't agree to the corporation"

" I heard my uncle is still trying to meet with him, the person told him to wait for tomorrow when he has calmed down. Maybe I can get to him and ask for his forgiveness before my uncle comes"

" Ok deep breaths, lets not take any rash decisions maybe it's not related"

" What if it is, I just have to try no matter what"

" Ohhh why is everything happening so fast, this was not how we planned it. Don't worry even if he does not listen to you we will still find another way out, okay"

" Thanks Kina."

    I was shaking by the time I got into my room and a certain part of my body was not happy with me and wanted more I tried to sleep but like an unfaithful spouse with no conscience, sleep deserted me for the night. I tossed and tuned on the bed, every time I closed my eyes I was in his room again with his hands on me What does he mean by his last warning? Was he trying to dissuade me? Was he having second thoughts? Was he not the one that came to snatch the bride from the wedding, why all the "are you sure, think about this" what is he up to?

On the fourth day Seth was no where to be found, I just woke up that morning and was told that he was gone What does that mean? Is he leaving me here all by myself? Well if i am being logical he did leave his business to keep me company all this while. His staff though were nothing but nice and accommodating. He came back the next day but he seemed different. That indifferent yet teasing glint in his eyes was gone almost like something happened What happened between the time he was away? Could it be that the incident at the wedding affected him in some way.

    Trying to sleep did not work as I kept tossing and turning. I finally managed to sleep in the early hours of the morning and I was grateful that I was able to sleep in I wondered what woke me up as I went into the bathroom for my morning ritual. Soon enough I heard it again, it was the sound of a chain saw I wondered what was going on, I couldn't see very well from my window so I went downstairs to see if I could get a glimpse of the workers and what they were doing. The whole house looked as if there was no one around until he spoke "You are up, good morning" Seth said without even looking up from the iPad in his hand "I figured you might need more sleep so I told them not to bother you" he pressed a button and in the blink of an eye someone was there to answer his call "Serve the lady's breakfast" he instructed, I felt awkward and sorry, like I was giving them double work. Me sleeping in probably means that their whole schedule for today will be different as breakfast was

    ESTEFANIA He was long gone before I realized that I was holding my breath all this while. What exactly is going on right now How careless was I to leave that paper in the proposal I sent to him. I remember I was so tired that night I was so frustrated after rewriting the proposal all night and then I was also thinking how to get out of the arranged marriage I was so out of it that I ended up scribbling down my thoughts like I always did whenever I was overwhelmed, but how could I have been so careless as to leave him the full evidence of my plans.Is he going to help me out? And if he was, under what circumstances. "Fanny this was a big mess up, this is somebody that does not like to be boxed into a corner" I said to the empty room Everything he is against is exactly what I have shown myself to be, a woman and a scheming one at that. A knock on the door interrupted my train of thoughts, the knock was accompanied by Mrs Brown and two other girls who looked around my age

He stated with a definite tone almost as if he was challenging anyone to say otherwise there was loud murmur as the congregation tried to make sense of what was happening "Now Peaches, you can't go against our agreement just like that" he continued in a tone you would use to coax a child what agreement was he talking about, I don't remember him and I agreeing to anything I just stood there looking at him shocked and speechless, he climbed the stage and walked right up to me, stroked a loose strand of hair behind my ear and whispered "You can close your mouth now Peaches and no this is not a dream" turning to the two men standing, ready to pounce on him he continued "Well now that we have cleared the air and you also have your answer, we will be on our way" He took my hand and made to leave but my uncle was not ready to give up, he dragged me back by the arm, I could see anger and deep hatred in his eyes.
