prologue

I don't want to be in a relationship with you" Emily said coldly to the man sitting across from her, he's in his early thirties and obviously wealthy.

"What did I do wrong?, Am I not attractive enough?". He asked Emily who was sitting with her legs crossed.

"I have everything it takes to make you comfortable", He said staring at her.

Emily took her LV bag on top of the table and walked out of the restaurant leaving him stranded and embarrassed, Her elegance and beauty got the attention of every man in the restaurant.

She was about getting into her multimillion Rolls Royce when her phone rang and it was her mom calling but she refused to answer it, she knows she was going to yell and curse at her so she decided not to let her spoil her day.

"Take me to the office" she said to her driver and he agreed.

She arrived at the office and immediately her manager and best friend came to her" Your mom called, I heard you crashed your date again " she rolled her eyes and went closer to her.

"She been calling me and I'm tired of lying to her, you should answer her call" she said and handed the phone to Emily.

"Why did you crash your date?, You do this Everytime I set you up with someone, that young man you just dumped is every lady's dream, he's the CEO of Harts company" her mom yelled over the phone, she was so loud that Emily had to remove the phone from her ear.

"Why don't you want to get married like your sister?, You want to inherit everything your father has by working your arse off trying to prove to him that you are capable of being the heiress?.

Emily quickly became upset by her mother's words and hung the call on her, she hates it when she reminds her of her sister's betrayal, something she's trying so hard to forget.

Her face immediately became cold and gloomy and she dropped the phone hardly on the table, she paced around her office trying to calm herself down.

Emily Hudson is the first daughter of Mr and Mrs Hudson who are very powerful in the corporate world, she has a younger sister who she grew up with.

Aside being the heiress of the Hudson's family, she's also a successful Actress and has made a name for herself both in the business world and the acting world. She was a sweet and beautiful girl who was easy going and had everything she wanted until an ugly event took place and changed everything.

She was engaged to her business partner and their wedding date was already fixed, she was so excited as she shops for her big day, she couldn't believe she was finally getting married to the love of her life.

She was about going to his room after shopping when she heard moans and kissing sounds coming from his room, she opened the door and found her sister, Celine in bed with her husband to be Roy and she was shattered, her eyes were filled with tears and the goodies she bought from the shopping mall fell from her hand, she quickly left the room in tears hoping that Roy would follow her and at least give her an explanation or make up excuses but he didn't, he ended up marrying Celine and that was when Emily closed up her heart.

She has decided not to open up her heart to any man especially the wealthy and famous ones, she decided to focus on building her career and working on her self and that she has done successfully.

That incident changed her completely, it turned her into the cold and domineering lady that she is.

"Prepare my things! I'm leaving the city!" She commanded.

CHAPTER 1

The breeze wheezes in and the curtain near the window moves from side to side, the light streaming in through the window shone on Emily's face and that was when she woke up, she rubbed her face with the back of her palm and that was when her blurry vision became clear.

She found herself in an unfamiliar room and a man was sleeping half naked close to her, she quickly peeped into the blanket which was covering her body and found out that she was naked. She was so scared and wondered what might have gone wrong, her head was aching so bad, she couldn't remember what happened the night before and how she ended up with a mysterious man in a hotel room.

She stared at the handsome man sleeping comfortably beside her before quietly getting down from the bed. she scanned the room with her eyes trying to make sure there's no CCTV cameras in the room, she quickly picked up her clothes and shoe which was scattered on the floor, she took her bag from the table and left the room quietly trying not to wake the young man. She covered her face with her hand as she Storm out of the hotel, she couldn't risk being seen by anyone or anyone taking pictures of her.

She opened her phone and saw several messages which was sent to her by Gracie her manager.

"Ding!" Her phone buzzed.

"Where are you?"

"Pick up my calls, I'm worried"

"Are you still at the party?"

"I'm trying to get to you please reply my messages when you see them"

"Text me your location and I will arrive with your driver to pick you up" .

Emily sighed heavily as she scrolled through the messages, she was so tensed and nervous. she texted Gracie her location and immediately she arrived with her driver and picked her up.

She immediately fell into the sofa as they arrived at her house, she was feeling so scared and frustrated. She held her head with her hands trying to remember the incident that led her to the hotel room with a mysterious man, she remembered attending an associate's birthday party and the next thing she remembered was someone whispering to her in a seductive and breathless voice.

She remembered running her hand through his perfectly chiseled face and kissing his red full lips. "What is going on?, I'm confused" Gracie asked and she Jolted out of her thoughts.

She stared at her best friend who was worried about her, she doesn't know how to tell her that she just had a one night stand with someone she doesn't know after rejecting so many prominent men.

"I fucked up, I just had a one night stand with a stranger" she said to her and she opened her mouth wide in shock. She was excited that her best friend who has been celibate for years finally got intimate with someone and on the other hand she was sad because she doesn't know anything about this person and how it happened. She sat down beside her trying to calm her down.

"How did that happen?" Gracie asked, she knows that her friend is not someone who would easily spend a night with a guy Let alone someone she doesn't know.

"I don't know, I think someone spiked my drink, I could remember sitting down in a corner and drinking. I'm scared, what if this gets out or this guy has pictures of me naked, it will ruin my career and everything I have worked so hard to build" she panicked. Gracie could feel the fear written all over her face.

"It could be that they set me up, maybe he was sent by my sister to ruin me. What should I do?, How did I get myself in to this mess. I can't let anyone know about this, my enemies will mock me and my career will be over. The worst part of it is that he looks younger than me, he should be in his early twenties. My father is the only one that has always supported and stood by me, I can't let him down".

"Calm down, I don't think someone set you up. you should take a bath first, we will come up with something and fix this so that no one will know about it" Gracie said trying to calm her worrying friend. Emily is obsessed with having a perfect life with no flaws and she understands that but sometimes things happen and we can't control that.

She led her to the bathroom and closed the door while thinking of what to do next as her manager and best friend. She wants to launch her new clothing line next week and they wouldn't want anything to ruin it.

Emily was covered in bubbles as she sat down in the bathtub, her thoughts were running wild, she could still feel the mysterious guy run his hands through her flimsy gown, he touched her in the way no man has ever done. His pointed nose pressed against hers as he devoured her lips, his gaze was intense and unrelenting. She heard a knock on the door and immediately snapped out of her fantasies, She hated herself for thinking so horny when she should be thinking about how to make things right.

"Are you still there?, You have spent so much time in the bathroom, just making sure you are okay" Gracie said checking up on her, she doesn't want her to hurt herself or think too much about the situation. A lot of ladies hook up with men they no know nothing about and gets away with it but it's not that easy when you are the heiress of the Hudson's family.

She was still thinking of what to do when Emily stormed out of the bathroom looking so tense. "What's wrong" she asked worriedly as she stared at her.

"I have an idea!, Let's track him down and shut him up!"
