Chapter 6

ALEXANDER

How funny it is to see a hopeful person think that he can still be saved, that he can still cheat, that there is still a way out, when the more he fights the deeper he sinks into the trap you carefully designed. It is really gratifying to see them think that they can still win, that they are above and there is no law for them, when everything is already lost, when you know how everything will end, I definitely love this game.

Poor man who doesn't really know what awaits him, but I do, that's why I finished sending other instructions to my subordinates and more information to the police, everything going as planned. Now that I am done I have to get ready for my dinner with Isabella.

...

"Hello" she greeted as she opened the door and sat in the car with a shy smile, looking more beautiful than ever, she was dressed in a short pink dress with princess sleeves, tight at the top, highlighting her waist and loose at the bottom, with her beautiful hair in a high ponytail and low white heels, she looked like a princess.

"You look very beautiful" I said as I went over my gaze, from her beautiful angel face to her little feet.

"Thank you" she replied blushing and that really surprised me, seriously this girl who everyone must tell everyday how beautiful she is still blushes with a compliment, how strange, this left me a little puzzled, because the tint on her cheeks I don't think she can fake it.

"You're welcome and, where are we going?"

She gave me the address and I headed that way, on the way we didn't talk, she is still reserved and at that moment I couldn't think of any topic we could talk about, when we arrived at the restaurant I noticed that it was quite simple but at the same time cozy, it looked like the typical family business, where you find very homemade food.

We sat down and ordered the food, everything was delicious and I saw another side of Isabella that left me more confused, the girl she showed me while we were talking was a centered, intelligent and good girl, the talk during dinner was so nice, the opposite of what I had imagined, I thought I would have to listen to pure nonsense and vain girl complaints, but instead she asked me why I had come here, about my things and I realized that she doesn't like to talk much about herself, but when she talked she told me about her career, her friends and what she wanted to do in the future, also about her interests in which in several of them we coincided. All of this had me quite puzzled and the worst thing was that I was not only liking her but there was something else going on and this was definitely bad for my plans. When dinner was over I stood up and told her I would go to the bathroom for a moment and I paid the bill and went back to our table.

"Come on" I said extending my hand towards her.

"Wait, they haven't brought the bill yet" she replied without taking my hand and remaining seated.

"I already paid it, let's go" I said with a smile and she couldn't help but open her mouth in surprise and then frowned.

"That wasn't the deal, I had to pay for the dinner to make up for the car" she explained a little annoyed and exasperated.

"Yes, but a gentleman shouldn't let a beautiful lady pay" I insisted while winking at her "besides, just by bringing me to a new place with delicious food and accompanying me, the debt is more than paid off, so let's go."

She looked like she wanted to say something else but didn't and stood resigned looking annoyed. Back in the car he would have to figure out a way to make her happy again.

"Don't be mad at me about it okay? Next time we go out you're buying" I said trying to break through the walls that she again put up after I paid.

"No next time" she replied still annoyed.

"Why, was my company that bad? Because the truth for me was quite the opposite and I would love to go out with you again."

She blushed again, even more than when I told her she looked beautiful and now she seemed nervous, I guess looking for what to answer me, I waited but when we got to her house it became obvious that she wouldn't answer me.

"Well thank you for dinner, goodnight" she said as she was about to open the door but I grabbed her arm and pulled her towards me, we were just inches away from each other, it only required a small movement to kiss her and we both stayed like that for a moment without moving, she looked nervous but she didn't pull back and I definitely wouldn't, I couldn't hold it in anymore and kissed her soft lips.

Her taste was delicious, her lips so soft and my heart started to beat faster, I was feeling so many emotions with this simple touch that left me more confused.

She stood there doing nothing but not pulling back and when I was about to do it because I realized that maybe she might not want this, she started to reciprocate, but her kiss was inexperienced, as if it was her first kiss and this idea moved something in me and I felt some kind of possessiveness towards her that I had never felt before with anyone, but really could it be her first kiss? This did not match at all with the image I have of Isabella, well actually the more I get to know her the more she puzzles me and the further away she is from what my sister told me, could this girl be as good at cheating as her father?  These are questions I had no answers to at the moment and I just kept kissing those soft and delicious lips that were moving something in me that I didn't understand either. At last we broke apart and I had only one question hovering in my head.

"Was that your first kiss?" I asked unable to stop the words from coming out of my mouth, I knew it was a stupid question, but I had already asked it.

"I have to go" she replied looking embarrassed and opened the door and ran out. Even though she didn't answer my question by the way she reacted it was easy for me to imagine her and that made me excited and filled me with more possessiveness towards her.
