Willow found a quiet ,secluded corner and sat down on the roughly carpeted floor. She cursed under her breath .Just as she placed her head in her hands, James sat across her,crossing his legs on the carpeted floor. He looked fresh as if he had just started the day. His formal pants and shirt was neatly worn, without a single crease. His tie still hung in place , neatly as if it were glued to his shirt. His sleek black hair gelled into an aoat haphazard side path. Willow looked at his fine features,he was indeed attractive.The moment that thought popped into her head,she felt slighy pressure in her finger and immediately thought about her disgruntled teacher and the sudden outburst."Tough day?" He asked her with a smile on his face. "Yeah" Willow replied as she looked into his warm eyes."You know you can always just leave and go home for the day. You are the soon to be Mrs Green." James chuckled. He thought that a joke might lighten her mood."You sound just like that pathetic Mrs
A cheery voice echoed as the door opened," thought you could get away Willow? But here we are,we brought the salon and the clothing to you."Willow rolled her eyes,all she wanted was an ice cold shower and her bed. She wondered how he could have so much excitement in him all day.Was he paid to be this jovial?"You guys get started in the room." James instructed the professionals."Willow, you shoul probably take a shower, we only have an hour to get you ready." James smiled at Willow warmly,hoping she would give in and just not put up a fight."I am not going anywhere." Willow lashed out. Her finger began to throb and she knew the consequences were equally as vicious as she was but she waited for some more begging from James. She didn't want to make the ring issue obvious."Willow,it's a grand gala. You may just like it . Go out . Have some fun." James persisted."Don't you think I had enough fun for one day?" Willow raised an eyebrow." Trust me. You will love it." James took her ar
Willow watched him enter the diner, there was a hollow feeling in the pit of her stomach. A chill in the air made the hair on the back of her neck stand up. She could feel that something was not quite right but she couldn't put her finger on it.She stared at Gregory Green and his group of associates,crossing her fingers that someone else would wait on them tonight.She had been their waitress for the last six months, she wondered if it was coincidence or sheer luck that she would be the only waitress available.The Denny Diner was small but it was always busy. They sold good food and the atmosphere was always cheery.She guessed that was the reason that a billionaire like Gregory Green was here every Tuesday.Willow hated Tuesday's, it meant that she had to wait on Gregory Green and his crew, hand and toe making sure they were satisfied with their service. She didn't mind for the first five months, the tips were great, but since last month, Willow's instinct urged her to be careful
"Wait, I can't have her hypnotised forever." Gregory grabbed his arm tightly. What was he possibly going to do with a hypnotised girl. It just wouldn't be Willow, it would be as if she was a robot in his life. What would his mother say if she met a hypnotised Willow. All these thoughts crossed his mind,making his palms sweaty. Although he was a grown man, a business tychoon, he still feared his parents and their opinions.He didn't know how he was going to take Willow home that night, but he decided to leave that for later on."It's going to cost you.Double of this!" Oz replied,"I knew you would want a long term solution."He shrugged Gregory's arm off his. Gregory had him seeked out from the shadows. He did not quite know how Gregory had known about his existence.Oz was quite content hiding amongst the people like a mere commoner. Since he was called out by Gregory,he might as well take advantage of the situation.Living amongst the people for the last two hundred years he watched
Willow shook her head but the crowd applauded even louder. Whistling and cheering could be heard over the clapping noise that rang through the diner.Willow felt sick to her stomach.She wanted to walk away but he held her hand tightly in his firm grip. His sea green eyes stared intensely at her snow white face. Her pink lips pursed into a thin line and her brows furrowed.Sitting next to him, she felt suffocated. She knew that her fellow colleagues always had their eye on him, they often talked about marrying him and being one of the wealthiest woman in the city. Willow did not even think about such things, she was already twenty-one and half way through her medical career.Losing her parents at the age of five, Willow had always been a survivor.Her parents had passed away in a horrific car accident one snowy,winter's night.Willow was in the car with her parents travelling to her grandparents home for the holidays when a truck skid off the road ,leaving the trailer to slam into the
Willow did not know where she had gotten the courage from ,but she lunged forward,grabbing the jacket and running towards the almost empty car park. There were only a few cars left,one of them were Gregory Greens luxurious car. The parking lot seemed so far away,she couldn't believe that she had run all that way.Keeping her head down she sprinted as fast as he little legs could carry her.She heard the loud thud against the ground as the man ran behind her. She pictured his foot prints being engraved on the floor with each step that he took. The foot prints were getting closer and her heart started to pound in her chest."Please don't get an anxiety attack now. Please,please,please." She silently willed herself in her mind. Gregory green was no where in sight, and Willow was now fueled with natural adrenaline as she looked around frantically for someone to flag . She regretted her decision of running away from him,but everything had happened so fast ,she just needed some space,she
Willow left his coat on the seat,she did not wait for him to jump off the car and open the door for her. She just wanted to get out of his presence.She ran up the flight of stairs and into her small apartment,shutting the door behind her,she slid onto the floor in a heap.Tears streamed down her cheeks and wet her pink cotton shirt. She cried like the day she lost her parents . It was uncontrollable and she screamed loudly banging her fists against the floor. She lived in a small block of flats and most apartments were empty. Willow knew her cries would not be heard no matter how loudly she screamed.Minutes seemed like hours and now Willow's snow white cheeks and deep blue eyes were bloodshot red and puffy. There were so many emotions running through her mind,body and soul. She was confused about the unexpected marriage proposal she had received a few hours ago. She felt as if her throat was closing up and knew she was having a panic attack. She fiddled in her pocket for a brown
Willow woke up in the morning,rubbing her eyes she looked at the clock on her bedside table. It was already six o clock and she knew she would definitely be late if she did not hurry up.She had totally forgotten about last night until she saw the ring on her finger. Willow cursed under her breath. She wished it was a dream.Jumping in and out of the shower, she dressed in a jeans and t shirt,pulling on a pair of sneakers and her white coat. She grabbed her books,looking at her watch as she locked the door behind her.She was definitely going to be late if she did not run to the bus stop. She had five minutes before the bus arrived.Scurrying down the stairs Willow burst through the main entrance.A man stepped out of a limousine and opened the door.Willow looked behind her but the man pointed to her. She hopped down the stairs as the driver tried to take her books from her hand but she pulled them away."Who are you? I'm kinda late! So make it quick. Who are you and what do u want?
