Big boss

"Last night was a wonderful night indeed. An accident occured in the suburbs of a rural area very late at night. The victim of the accident appears to be a big shot whom the cops are yet to find his/her identity. That'll be all for this morning's news...," the newscaster voiced out.

Meanwhile, Veronica's mouth was wide agape as she stared at the screen. She was no fool. 'heh, suburbs of a rural area? Big shot?' She reflexively stared at Sebastian's face but the only thing she could make out was that he was stunningly handsome. Aside that, she didn't recognize him. She stared at his face in contemplation, biting her lower lip, digging deep into her memory.

Few minutes later, Veronica gave up in the quest on knowing his identity. She dazedly stared at his face and murmured "He's just so devilishly handsome."

Another news on the Television caught her attention which displayed a picture of a man who was known as the youngest, wealthiest most eligible bachelor and the CEO of the top one company. And the man on the screen looked so familiar, so familiar....that he was the one laying on her bed!

Veronica's eyes widened in surprise. She pinched her cheek to see if she was dreaming but after confirming the pain she felt, she knew it was real.

'The man I saved yesterday is actually the country's husband?' Veronica mumbled and her attention was drawn to his face. His face looked like one that was carved out of jade. Despite being unconscious, the aura around him gave one a feeling of danger and familiarity.

'What is this, do I know him before?' She mumbled to herself, as she propped her elbow on the bed, resting her chin on her palm as she studied his face closely. It was at this time she realized he was beautiful. Unlike other handsome men she've met and seen, Sebastian didn't have a single pore on his face.

Earlier, from the news, she found out his name.

Few seconds later, Sebastian opened his eyes to see large pairs of brown orbs staring down at him. His eyes widened in surprise, unable to register what was going on. He raised his hands and surveyed his surroundings properly and after recalling yesterday's incident, he recalled the whole situation and turned to Veronica whose face was now close to his.

"What are you doing?" Sebastian asked coldly, glaring at her.

"Good morning to you too handsome. Did you have a good sleep?" Veronica asked cheerfully and smiled at Sebastian whose lips twitched due to anger and amusement.

'What is wrong with this woman with a bird nest's hair? Did I encounter a mentally unstable person yesterday?' Sebastian thought to himself, still staring at Veronica.

Veronica coughed lightly upon noticing his gaze on her;

"I know I'm very beautiful but please admire me secretly. Although, I don't blame you because no one can resist this beauty here," She continued shamelessly, unaware of the kind of stare she was getting from Sebastian who was refraining himself from exploding in anger.

He turned his face to the other side, not exchanging a word with her . With his right palm on the bed, Sebastian directed all his energy to his right hand and pushed himself to seat upright. In the process, a groan escaped his lips and the wound on his stomach reopened.

"Heh, why are you not saying anything? Are you in pain?" Veronica asked playfully but when she caught sight of the white pyjamas in him which now had a large patch of red, she panicked.

"You...you...how could you just move as you like?! Did you not know that you were seriously injured?! Do you know how much I stressed myself to help you clean up your wound?" Veronica asked exasperated, hoping to guilt trip him but she was yet to realize that the news about him being gentle and easy going was fake. The man before her was the devil himself.

"Stop shouting. Your voice is giving me headache," Sebastian coldly said as he surveyed the suite. Judging from the interior of the suite, he knew he wasn't in a house. Suites and hotel rooms were all too familiar with him because he spent his nights there sometimes when on a business trip, and the fact that he also had buildings of such made it more easier.

Veronica gasped in shock when she heard him.

"You...you...you...," She stammered as she pointed a finger at Sebastian who appeared calm.

'What's wrong with her? Did I speak too harshly?' Sebastian thought to himself as he grew nervous all of a sudden. The second the idea of being nervous ran through his head, it flew out of his head in the blink of an eye.

Unknown to him, the only reason why Veronica was short of words was because his voice sounded pleasing to her ears. Raspiness, sexiness and masculinity could be detected in his voice. The voice was enough to lull her to sleep and make her loose her sanity. She had never met anyone whose voice was as good as this. His voice was like music to her ears as she stared at him dazedly.

"So... beautiful," He heard her say loudly making him roll his eyes as he internally slapped his forehead.

'Truly, I encountered a strange human.'

If only Veronica knew the impression she gave him was something that'd affect her future.

"Woman, where am I? Where is my phone? Where are my clothes? Did you take anything else from me?" A barrage of questions was thrown at Veronica who immediately snapped out of her daze.

"What do you mean?!" Veronica screeched and glared at him immediately. She wondered how a human could be so ungrateful even after saving him and 'risking' her lives in the process. (Veronica's words,not mine).

To Sebastian, her glare tingled a part in him. He realized that despite her bed hair, she looked like an angry kitten coupled with her glare. At this thought, he chuckled loud enough for Veronica to hear.

"Haaaaa.......," She creeched.
