CHAPTER SIX

“Oh!, it’s you”, I asked as Wesley walked up to me.

My blood boiled with rage, as I clenched my fist I was still scared, and I was angry too.

“Why are you following me?, what wrong with you?, I do not want a conversation with you, I don’t want to even see you, what do you want from me?, tell me I’ll give you if I can do you’ll leave, of course you are well to do so you wouldn’t need money from me, what else Mr. Wesley”, I fired the questions at him without allowing him speak.

my voice slightly raised and my voice shaking with fear and anger.

He was really getting on my nerves and scaring me.

“Good evening Anna”, he greeted instead amidst my unsteady state.

I was trying hard to control my anger and needed answers but here he was greeting me, what does he think is good about the evening when he had already ruined it.

I shut my eyes for a few seconds, no matter what, he hasn’t really done anything wrong and I need to compose myself and avoid acting or talking irrationally.

“Good evening to you too Mr. Wesley”, I greeted back, plastering a fake unsteady smile on my face as I slid my hands in my coat jacket.

“I’lld love to speak with you” he began, raising his brows slightly.

His face gleamed as the setting sun reflected on him, the evening breeze blowing calmly, brushing some strands of his hair to his face, as if trying to make me adore his face.

Indeed he was handsome, with the charm, and his strong masculine scent hit hard.

Damn.

“Over sweet wine in this cool evening?” He asked, his voice low and pressurizing.

At this point I realize that the anger that was boiling in me when I first stopped had vanished, replaced by butterflies in my belly.

Anna what’s wrong with you, this weird man with dark aura is making you feel otherwise, don’t forget what you suffered with Ethan, I advised myself.

“Ok” I accept with a stern face, I’ll have to keep it professional and not let his looks flatter me, besides what does he want from me and where would he take me.

He turned, walking towards his car.

What was I supposed to do now, I just stood still, “am I supposed to go with him in his car?”, I whispered the question to myself.

“Girl don’t be cringe now move”, my mind communicated with me but my body refused to respond.

I was really nervous, what’s wrong with me now.

Wesley had walked over to his car and stopped, then he realized.

“Oh!…, my bad” I smiled taking huge strides and running down to me once again.

“I sincerely apologize Mi lady”, he said as he bowed, taking me by the arm.

I want to oppose and remove my hands from his arm, but my body does the opposite, gripping unto his arm tightly.

My mouth open to speak but no words form, instead I exhaled and my face flushed red in embarrassment as he led me to his car.

I finally let go of his arm unwilling after he opened the door for me.

If I took the back seat it would surely be awkward, so I had to sit beside him now.

The soft leather seats welcomed me comfortably as the smell of luxury hit my nose.

Adjustable support and massage functions made me melt in the seat, indeed luxury was sweet.

My fingers want to graze the touch screen display, but no, I have to be civilized and uphold my steeze.

I had never been in such a vehicle before, I guess my bucket list from high school would need to be found once again. I laugh at my imagination silently.

Immediately wesley enters the drivers seat, Oh no!, I’m just blushing uncontrollably as I stare at him, I do not know if he notices and chooses to ignore me but I just cannot remove my eyes.

He was so focused on the road, but still, he was calm and relaxed.

His intoxicating masculine scent made me want to bury my face in his sleeves.

And his well carved jaw line made me stare uncontrollably and I want to feel his his masculine build so bad, he had the three top buttons of his crop top shirt undone.

This was unlike me, drooling over a guy?.

I slammed my hand on my temple as I finally draw myself together.

Turning my attention to the road beside me to distract myself.

He looked so mature and masculine so he should be in his early 30’s, he might be married after all.

I needed to control myself before something bad happens.

The silence was loud and my brain searched hard to find a topic suitable in striking up a conversation.

“Your bracelet is really nice” Wesley finally broke the silence.

I raise my wrist to take a looks at it, I was so used to it that it no longer looked like something new to me.

I have had it since I was a child, and my slender statue helped me remain in size for it.

“Oh, thanks”, I reply, I started overthinking once again.

Was my reply too blunt and dismissive, I’m supposed to ask a question back to keep the conversation going.

Why can’t I act normal, I’m just screwing things up.

“It must be really expensive from the way it sparkles, it caught my eyes even as I am concentrating on the road” Wesley added with a smile as he stole a glance at me, swiftly returning his gaze to the road.

“I’m sorry about our informal encounters before now, that is unlike me I promise”, he glances at me once again and smiles.

I’m too stiff, I can’t even flow, I’m just lost and flattered, he gives me the goosebumps, and that smile exposing his white teeth.

Where was my composure, gosh.

I managed to smile back, “you also look quite charming and elegant, your car is magnificent too”, I confessed.

I sigh as I let the words out, it wasn’t that hard, I was just the one troubling myself.

“Here we are Mi lady”, Wesley announced as he parked the car gently, I didn’t realize that we had gotten to a new environment.

I brought out my phone to check my face on my camera but my heart sank immediately.

9pm!.

Oh how late I have stayed out tonight, how long have we been driving for.

Wesley walked over and opened the door for me once again.

I blushed hard, I love the princess treatment.

For ages I have longed for this, even if it didn’t have to be this elegant.

It made me happy, and my heart became sweet immediately I stepped out taking Wesley’s arm once again.

It felt good, and I was happy to feel this way, even if it was only for this night.

No…

Right now I wanted more, it shouldn’t be only for tonight I hope.

I wonder what will happen when we get in.
