Kristopher POV-
I had booked the VIP room with soundproofed rooms for everything we will talk about or happened here for the next 10 hours. I just hope I don't lose an bit of my control like that day. I just hope hope she won't be looking too tempting to devour cause I know my control is going to fall somewhere I couldn't find it again.
But somewhere inside I wanted to see how tempting she would look and take the risk. If she came here looking all like goddess just to deny the offer of marriage I won't let her walk away. I called it a meeting because if I had called it a date she won't show up after I've said that she can do whatever she wants in the contract. I wanted to discuss the contract and all the other things with her and a small part or should I say I wanted to se her again.
I was somewhat doubtful that if she is even going to show up. After all, it was clear on her face that she didn't like what I did. But she should get used to it since I know that I'm attracted to her and won't be able to keep my hands to me most probably.
It sounds too rich coming from me. It won't be shocking if Trevin got to knew what I was thinking and smacked me on my head. Yeah he is a somewhat friend. I didn't thought I'd get attracted and fascinated by any other woman than her. I haven't seen her, nor do I have any source to connect with her. But I was fascinated just by listening to her doings. She brought Marsett mafia to top 2 alone. She is no doubt a good leader given that no one betrayed her.
Yeah, we tried to find anyone who would betray her and give us some information so we could make an ally with her. But we got nothing. The more I heard about her doings, it excited me and made me more curious. I'd definitely like to meet her even once.
I'm shocked myself that I'm thinking something like this when I have works like fulfilling the duties as the boss of Russian Mafia. I have to do something about Australian Mafia.
I was informed that Zayne , my one of the enemies or persons I hate for some personal reason and also the boss of Australian Mafia, is here to find a strong ally to take me down. And he didn't even try to keep it a secret that he is here. It was like he is saying that I'm here, do something if you can. A challenge. Specially for me. He hadn't said about any challenges but it is.
If he is looking for an ally, it is most probable that he will look after making an alliance with Marsett mafia. It could cause many complications for me. Someone from Russia who is just some small steps behind from me, is all hidden and we don't know anything about with someone powerful like Zayne is not good for me or my Mafia.
He had never attacked me directly but even then his attacks were big and could be a great damage but didn't because some people from my Mafia were tracking his each move. I observed all those activities and put two and two together.
I have to put Marsett mafia on my side because if she teamed up with him, it would like a death wish to challenge Zayne for a war.
The sound of a knock took me out of the daze I was in about the different outcomes of different actions. I immediately knew someone was here. Is it her? She actually came. I don't want to say this but I just want to have reaction out of her all the time. She just acts too cold even for my stare. I don't know what kind of reaction. It amuses me but at the same time it just feels like I'm having some kind of competition when someone has no fear of me and I can't to anything about that.
Even when the reaction I made out of her was anger and frustration and she was flushed maybe because of embarrassment. It was not what I was searching for but I was satisfied of the effect. I'd be lying if I said it wasn't affecting me because the earlobe thing was not what I intended to do. My self control broke in a million pieces when I was so close to her. But somehow I recollected myself and left. It was hard for me even but I didn't show it.
The woman at the counter entered and motioned with her hand for someone to come inside. I hope it's Sally. It is. She was wearing a blue dress. When I first saw her, she didn't seem the type who likes to wear something heavy just to look good, not even too much makeup. And I was right. She looked elegant and all comfortable with almost no makeup.
She entered and her eyes made a direct contact with me for a second then at the room assessing everything. She came the seat in front of me and sat there. I could feel my self control breaking into pieces but collected it somehow. Shit. It hasn't even started and here I am and she is least bit affected.
I could see a rose tattoo with a small crescent over it on her collarbone. I stared at her because it did seem like something is hidden in it but she covered it with her hair. She would probably feel uncomfortable because of me staring at her exposed with such intensity but she didn't seem the type to be uncomfortable because of staring.
I cleared my head and asked, "Anything you would like to have?"
"A cold coffee and a sandwich", she replied standing on her ground, not giving in to my stares or cold look. I would be lying if I said it wasn't one of things that amused me.
I waited for our orders so that we are not disturbed in between our conversation. She seemed to read my mind and didn't asked any questions and made herself busy with her smartphone.
Our orders came shortly and the moment the waiter went out of the room shutting the door, she grabbed her coffee and said, "Why are we here?"
Honestly, I had already expected her to ask this question. Instead of giving a direct answer I said, "It's a date. Soon-to-be-married couples go on dates, right?"
She frowned and said, "Get to the point."
So she is good at identifying lies or is just too observant to be sure that someone like me with the cold aura I always have will never do something like organizing a date.
"It's about contract, we are here to discuss that." I gave in.
She was drinking her coffee and eating her sandwich while I informed her of everything important.
"You would be living in my house with me. We will have to be spotted on some public places to make sure that people doesn't think of this like an instant arrangement or contract. I'll make sure there is everything of your need."
I went on with the points and she listened. She interrupted when she wanted confirmation or wanted to know more about some point.
It was already 11:30 when we were done.
We also had the lunch there. She was about to walk get up and walk out when I interrupted her and said , "I'll meet you at your work tomorrow. Be ready for a show."
She just stared at me for a minute and shrugged and went out without saying anything.
Which did amuse me that she has nothing to say for such a big thing of her life.
Is it normal for her or is the marriage just not exciting enough for her?
