After the man stopped laughing, he spoke, “Little one, you are such a brave girl and this has increased my curiosity,” he hissed as his eyes shot daggers at her, “Are you perhaps thinking that you could escape from me after prying on our private conversation? Or, are you this confident because of the cameras?” His eyes traveled to the corners of the pillars in the area.He noticed her face flushed. It seemed like what he was saying was not far from the truth. It might be the camera’s presence that had increased her confidence and she felt safe under the surveillance of the parking lot."Too bad, queen…countless have tried that but even in their dreams, it was only a thoughtful wish not fulfilled. And besides…I don’t think you are capable of managing it.”When Anita heard of the other name he gave her, she felt her blood boil and her reasoning lost as she shouted, “Please will you stop giving me names! My name is Anita and I am not a little one for heaven’s sake! I am tur
This place gave her a weird feeling. With the pleasant atmosphere surrounding him, and, he got such a sweet smile that would easily attract waves of female fans plastered on his lips.She still found him mysterious and she had a hunch he was someone who fits the schemer character.“You can say so. He is not someone to play with or much less go against” he said and Anita felt her fury come back.If he knew the man, why the hell would he want to meet her with a warning? Was he trying to scheme against the other man? Situations like this happen every time in the novel where the heroine is used as a weapon to fight the hero.“He’s my cousin,”“Like a brother?”“A friend”“Why would you sneak behind him to warn me?” Anita didn’t want to drag the conversation.“Because I don’t want to see someone like you fall into his traps. So, I am offering you a chance for me to help you out of this predicament,” He said with the energy of the righteous person.Anit
Not everyone looks for love!That was true for the cold-hearted Mr. Ronald but not for Miss. Wairimu. She really hoped for Mr. Ronald to love her back.That statement that Tony said had Anita wondering if it was true that not everyone looked for love in a relationship. She even started to ask herself if she truly loved Tony or if the person himself loved her.She was already twenty-three and had only known Tony as her friend then boyfriend. Deep in her heart she admires him and because she has never felt any attraction towards any other man despite the ones who had tried their luck on her in college, she has taken her heart as already occupied by Tony.She grew up within a loving family that only wished for a peaceful normal life. Since she had dedicated her life much to her research of the unknown mythical creatures and beasts that she believed existed among them, her family had urged her to always spare a time to take care of her relationship with Tony.Anita c
Anita rose and observed her usual routine; switched the room monitor on, arranged her bed, tied her curtains and organized the room, took her clothes and did their laundry, took her shower, headed downstairs for their family breakfast, kissing her parents good morning and having the normal breakfast talk before heading to the city for another half a day with them at the shop.Anita’s home had housekeepers and servants that were long people who served her grandparents, took care of her father and then her. But, even with the bevy of housekeepers. The three did not divulge them in helping with their bedrooms and laundry.It was a law passed down from her grandparents but still they also felt it was already a mountain enough for them to take care of the castle and maintain the cleanliness of the large compound outside that spanned for an estimate of seven hectares. Maintaining the grass to be green throughout the year and being at the same height was not an easy task.Then there were the
A super luxury limited edition Mercedes Benz, blue and shiny sports car was brought to a stop at the entrance of The Baker’s Pastry Shop. Mr. Ronald looked as beautiful as ever, nobble and arrogant as a newly crowned prince of the largest and strongest empire as he made his grand entrance with his hands deep into his pant’s pockets.The aura he was exuding was extraordinary and he had his natural high-born bearing as he walked elegantly towards the lady who was sitting under the shade in front of The Baker’s Pastry Shop.Naturally, this lady was none other than Anita who was sitting under the shade outside their shop. Unaware that the newly supposed customer was the one man she wanted to inquire about, she kept her eyes shut until the brooding figure of the man cast a shadow on her.Anita felt that something was wrong with the situation because it was not playing as she had expected it to and furrowed her brows. She wasn’t wearing the shop’s uniform today and was clad in
“You amaze me little one. Your bravery truly amazes me,” Ronald said between gritted teeth, “Even with my threats, you are still going against me? I wonder, do you have a heart?” He asked in a mocking tone.Anita’s eyes were twitching at his mocking tone, “You-!”“What?” He went on in his cold voice, “I want to know because if you had a heart, you would have humbled your pride or ego and cared for the people around you. I did underestimate you little one, you do look like me but you are hiding in the shell of…what..pride? Embrace it!”Anita was fuming with anger when she caught the meaning of his question if she had a heart. Wu Long sat silently watching the tit for tat exchange. Luckily before the two fighting dragons could have another exchange, Anita’s mother walked to them with a tray of different pastries.“Here you go,” She then turned to Wu Long, “If you want some my boy, you can ask when you leave. I will pack some for you,” then to her daughter, “Baby, I can
When Wu Long was talking, every sentence he spat out brought the change on Ronald. His hair suddenly flared with blue,yellow and red flames as his hair color changed into long thick silky hair with four colors, white, red, blue and gold. Golden scales with the white, red and blue colors shining on them, started to form on his forehead at the tip near his hairline and brows were starting to change when Wu Long Stopped.His change still went on to manifest as they followed his hair line down to his ears. His eyes had changed and it was not a pleasing moment to the three in the car as he had started exuding his aura that brought a suffocating pressure on them. Since they knew Ronald that much, they needed no one to tell them that he was angry beyond redemption. What was he angry about?“Elder brother Si, you are not to transform on Earth, remember!” Wu Long tried to persuade from the side.It was not ignored how he felt the pressure more than everyone else. It was like the air near him h
Anita spent up to an hour enjoying the sun outside their shop before she finally resorted to going back home. The main reason she wanted a day off was because she was thinking of how to contact Ben and get to know if what he had told her yesterday was true.Since she had been visited by the devil himself, she saw no reason to seek for Ben again even though she was sure Ben was inside the car when the devil had visited, she still took his card and saved his number.When she decided to leave, Anita boarded in her car and headed towards home but this time she did not use the main road like they had used yesterday with Tony when he was driving her back.Once they left the periphery of the street where their shop was located, there was a shortcut road from another street that led to the forest near the National park. It was a road no one knew except for their family members and since she felt like she might meet Ronald’s car after leaving the street, it was her only best opti
