Seth's POV

"What the heck man get it together!" I muttered under my breath

" Hmmm........you said something? "

"Nevermind" we continued sipping on the drinks.

She reached again for her ankles, massaging and finally tried taking off those damned heels, in a bid to get comfortable

I unconsciously bent down to reach for her legs the motion disorienting her for a while and causing her to also bend as well giving me a little view of her cleavage from the little V-cut on her dress

I trailed my hands around her ankle applying gentle pressure, I unbuckled the danmed heels and got them out of the way, moving back a little I picked up her feet one by one and massaged it for her while maintaining eye contact with her

Her feet were small and soft to touch, they were beautiful with perfectly manicured toe nails. Lost in the unexplainable feeling I got from rubbing her feet,

My hand trailed upwards to her calf then knees, as if it had a mind of its own, continued it's way to her thighs but I had to stop myself immediately.

I realized that her big doe eyes never left mine. My eyes trailed to her juicy lips and I wondered how they would taste if I were to kiss her right now. She was breathing heavily at this point

"Good..." I thought "it's good to know I am not the only one affected"

I let my eyes trail downwards towards her bossom again and watched the rise and fall of her chest with every breath she took.

I felt pure and unadulterated lust at that moment, I wished for some kind of magic to take us to my bedroom where I could unbox her glorious body piece by piece

"Get it together man" I heard a voice in my head calling me back to reality

Gently I set her feet back on the ground and managed to ask her "do you feel better now"

That question also snapped her back to reality and she positioned herself well before answering

"Y...yes, errm....thank you for.....for that" and I simply nodded and went back to my drink

I should probably stop drinking I have had more than enough drink for tonight.

The business meeting that brought me here had me drinking more than I expected and here I am drinking again. No wonder I was acting like a s*x starved fool

"So Mr McQueen what brought you here" she asked

" Business"

" Even in a setting like this" she asked again

"My partner and I are both busy people so this was a good opportunity while also attending to other things"

" Hmm......." she said sipping on her drink

" Well Mr McQueen, this was nice" she made to stand up and staggered a bit, I quickly held her upright, she was most definitely drunk.

She looked up at me, " I shouldn't be this close to you..." gently palming my face she continued ".....you are really handsome, even the mask could not hide it, it's really unfair how you could be so perfect".

And then she giggled a bit " I wonder what it will be like"

"What do you mean by what it would be like" I asked and she smiled.

She took a step closer, I could see mischief in her eyes, before I could say anything she crashed her lips on mine.

At first I was shocked but I couldn't resist the temptation of her lips on mine. It was soft and gentle at first but like a greedy dog I wanted more.

I kissed her back, deepening the kiss and probing for her to open up for me with little strokes of my tongue against her lips.

She parted her lips, and my tongue slid inside, tangling with hers in a sensual dance.

The kiss grew more passionate, our tongues exploring each other's mouths, I felt myself getting lost in the sensation of her lips and tongue against mine and I couldn't get enough

I pulled her closer, one arm around her waist while the other lost in her dark mane, holding her tight as I drank in her sweetness. I felt her chest pressed against mine, our heart beating together.

When we finally broke apart for air, she gazed up at me, her eyes locked on mine breathless and flushed with desire, I never expected what came out of her mouth next

"Seth McQueen how would you like to be my groom, I promise to treat you well"

Estafania's POV

" Seth McQueen, how would you like to be my groom? I promise to treat you well....treat you well.....treat you well?"

Those words kept echoing in my head as I slowly woke up from sleep. My head hurts as I tried to open my eyes

"Ahhh what the hell" I thought

"Good morning!" Kina came in with a smile and a tray of breakfast. I reached for the water first

"Not so good of a morning, I feel like shit"

"Yea and you look like it" she said handing a mirror to me

".....what happened between you and Seth McQueen why were you guys at the balcony alone and why were you so drunk by the time I found you"

" Wait, hold on just a minute...What did you say?" I asked as I let myself recall the things I did last night like kissing Seth McQueen and proposing to him!!!

"Ahhhhhh!!!!!!!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs

" Oh my gosh!! Fanny, Is it worst than I thought, cause you were in his arms by the time I found you"

I looked at her with my hands covering my mouth, she keeps dropping the bomb with every word coming out of her mouth

"...by the way how did you find him so quickly with everyone wearing almost the same thing,

I was surprised he went with the same style as most of the men there, I had to enlist the help of my friend to identify him but by then you were already dancing with him"

" I messed up, I messed up Kina I messed up oh my gosh......"

" Ok calm down, I mean your mission last night was to get his attention and then flirt with him you know to get him interested in you,

So the fact that you were in his arms yesterday could be seen as a plus right? Even though you were totally drunk"

" Ahaaa ahaaa mummyyyyy" I cried ".....I don't know.... Kina I kissed him"

" Huuh!!" Kina gasped. "....Wow! You guys kissed?"

"No like the way I remember it, I kissed him, I initiated the kiss"

" Oh babygirl"

" And to make it worse I proposed to him"

" Estafania Richardson!"

" I know I know, we were supposed to go slow and steady with the seduction but once I started drinking I couldn't control myself anymore"

Oh damn you and your low tolerance for alcohol" she sat down in resignation.

Seth was know for being a big player and at the same time being ruthless to women who threw themselves at him, I have successfully placed myself in this category and I don't know what will happen next

"Okay it can't be that bad, let's calm down for a while you never know maybe it's not as bad as we think and hey you didn't tell him who you were"

Uhhhhhggg!!!" I continued my cry rolling around on the bed ".....I didn't need to tell him he already knew"

" Oh! Maybe the kiss had him hooked"

" Ughhhhhh!!!!!!"

" Either way you need to get up cause we have work in one hours. We will think about this later."

Getting to the company we tried to go about our duties as if nothing happened, I was heading to my supervisor's desk when Seth and his people walked in, he didn't even spare me a glance

"Is that who I thought it was" kina said as she met me at my desk

" Mmhhmm"

"What is he doing here?"

"I don't know"

and almost immediately he came out of the office with my Uncle in tow not looking happy

I don't know if it was my imagination but it felt like he stopped briefly when his eyes got to me. My thoughts were confirmed when Kina said

"He's looking over here"

I looked up and everyone's eyes was looking in our direction thank God there were many people in front of us so there was no way of knowing who he was actually looking at

We were all brought back to our senses when my uncle called in my supervisor and others for a brief meeting

I was terribly nervous throughout the duration of meeting, it didn't help when my supervisor came out and requested our attention

"Alright everyone listen up, as you can see I am just coming out of a meeting with the bosses, unfortunately we were not able to secure a corporation with the Queens.

They want us to prioritize the corporation between our company and Gustav's international,

So everyone, get ready cause it's going to be a rough ride, you will get more details later on, Estafania, come with me" he finished and walked off

I ran to meet up with him, "you called me Sir" he turned opening the door that led to the CEO's office

"The boss wants to see you"

"Prepare yourself, your wedding will be in two weeks" he said immediately I entered

" What?..... No uncle you can't do this to me"

" I don't have time to argue with you, this is just to notify you. I don't need to tell you what happens next if you refuse. Now if you will excuse me I have other things to do"

That was him signaling me that he was done with the conversation

"But why two weeks, I thought you said in a month time" but he was no longer listening to what I was saying

Kina dragged me to the staircase immediately I came out what happened

"The wedding is to be held next two weeks"

" What?"

" I know"

" What do we do?"

" I dont know"

" Does this have anything to do with the loss"

" I guess so or could it be because of that night, is this his way of ruining me. What if he tells my uncle that I was to be blamed"

" So he didn't agree to the corporation"

" I heard my uncle is still trying to meet with him, the person told him to wait for tomorrow when he has calmed down. Maybe I can get to him and ask for his forgiveness before my uncle comes"

" Ok deep breaths, lets not take any rash decisions maybe it's not related"

" What if it is, I just have to try no matter what"

" Ohhh why is everything happening so fast, this was not how we planned it. Don't worry even if he does not listen to you we will still find another way out, okay"

" Thanks Kina."

    Later that day I was tired, completely spent. My head aches like never before, I stayed in my room until the noise downstairs died down then I came out and made my way to my father's room. My uncle and his family moved into the house after my father died, if I am being completely honest they already started moving in little by little when he was still in the hospital under the guise of keeping me company and taking care of me According to my uncle, it was the only way to make sure it remains in the family, unlike other properties that were seized as a result of him "embezzling the company's funds" I walked through his closet, his scent lingered in the air and it still looked well arranged. Some of mum's things were still there the ones I didn't pack the last time I helped in arranging his room. I knew he loved Mama but I thought he would have moved them by now. The clothes were mixed in with his own on the hanger, the folded ones were arranged in a very distinct way, he practic

    " Finally this cursed day is over" I said as I made my way into the house exhausted. I didn't see Mr handsome throughout the day so I came to the conclusion that he must have left while I was at the pharmacy, I hope it's not because of me "I was told you left the office about two hours ago, so why are you just coming back now" came my uncle, he didn't look happy. I guess this just goes to confirm he's been keeping tabs on me "I stopped to get drugs" it's not as if he cared "I have a project for you, you will be in charge of future interactions with Gustav's international" he said like that was a small thing " what! " "Yes, you've always wanted to take on bigger projects so this deal is an opportunity for you to prove yourself, if you do it well, you get promoted and get your own office like your siblings" he said ever so casually When did he become this generous, what is he up to now? Gone are the days when I would have believed him "Sure why not" I needed to be calm if

    Estafania's POV Walking into the venue, you could see that whoever was in charge of the event took their precious time to plan out every single detail of the room It was a huge ballroom with stairs, one led to a balcony and the other a hallway. Every corner of the room had flowers and antique decorations arranged beautifully, One corner held a scrumptious arrangement of desserts and........oh my world! Treats that are so so tempting.......wow! Waiters were up and about making sure that the guests do not run out of drinks Judging from the scene it seems the auction and dinner was over and now it was time for the mingling of the rich. At the centre of the ballroom was the dance floor with a huge chandelier hanging over it Wealthy men and women, the city's top socialites of different cadre and let's not forget the wannabe socialites. The room was packed with them all, each one gorgeously dressed from head to toe. The men in their designer tux and suits and the women in differe

Kina screamed "Shiiiiii...shush!! keep your voice down'' I said with my hands on her mouth "keep it down, we are still at the office" I repeated and moved her to the far corner of the break room while looking around to see if anybody heard her "You mean your uncle wants you to marry that old man, that has to be a joke" Kina who managed to free herself from my hands on her mouth said in disbelief "I was as surprised as you currently are but then again I shouldn't be. I knew the vibe I was getting from that man Gustavo was not of good when he said that he will reach an agreement with my uncle I just wish all this was just a terrible dream. He is very well into his fifties with his bald head and protruding belly which does not help his short stature in any way. No way will I ever agree to that joke of a marriage." " Yes, do not under any circumstances agree to that ridiculous request, I mean sure he is the one that is currently in charge

It took us about five minutes to get to the restaurant. Kina took her seat at one corner of the room ready for anything, I on the other hand, waited anxiously for Mr Gustavo. Not long after, he came in with his assistant and thugs. Seeing him and his entourage reminded me of that night and the terror I went through, this is definitely the last thing I wanted to do.While his thugs waited at another table in the restaurant, he walked over to me with his assistant. I stood to welcome them trying my best to keep the fake smile on my face as genuine as possible."Good day Sir, thank you for honoring my invitation" I said offering a bow to show my appreciation "Oh there is no need for that" he said smiling like a proud peacock "Please sit, make yourself comfortable" I said to them as I
