Anna’s pov.
“Oh god Nekoliya, you’re doing to much” I say panicky as she applies more “highlighter” to give me “the glowing effect.” she grins closing the product before staring at me approvingly.
“There’s nothing as such” she smirks placing her hand on her c****d hip. “Baby girl you look fine” she praises turning the chair abound for me to stare at my own reflection.
I looked damn good if I do say so myself my hair flowed down my back in golden waves with a few light brown highlights in between. My lips were painted a deep crimson red to match my figure hugging dress that Theresa had given to me.
Diamond earrings and a chain that I had no idea existed thanks to Theresa enhanced my outfit with the finishing touch of a pair of heels that closed at the ankles.
My heart pounded in my chest representing my ever present anxiousness when I caught sight of the clock on the wall.
Gosh it was almost time , soon I will be leaving here to stand in a room filled with extremely rich people with porshe accents sipping on thousand dollar champagne.
This is so not my thing. A groan fills the room and I freeze hearing the bed creak. We both seem to be holding our breaths and it feels like forever “Anna” Theresa’s croaky voice fills the empty space and I lick my lips steering my eyes away from the mirror.
“Coming” is my simple reply as I gracefully get up pulling the dress up on either side of my body. I take a deep breath as I near her room afraid of her reaction before stepping in. “Wow ” she whispers sitted up slightly on the bed the glass of water I left on her bedside now in her hand.
“Y-y-you like it?, I mean you’re not mad? ” I question wringing my cold ring clad fingers. She takes a sip of water before placing the cup back where it once was.
“Oh come on Anna don’t be a silly willy” she laughs lightly. “You look great and you’re going to do even greater , aren’t you? ” she smiles daringly and I nod hastily.
Because after all it was still business. I sighed turning away as she dismisses me looking down at the pretty dress .
Business was all it would ever be to me. “Are you ready to go? ” comes Nekoliya’s voice and I plaster on a bright smile. “yes”

I step outside of the busy hotel and see the dazzling black limo right away. It’s pretty hard to miss among the vast cars. Nekoly nudges me from my shock and I compose my self.
“Hello madame will it be only you two? ” the gentleman who is the driver asks as he holds the door. “Actually it will be the two of us” Nekoly says and I grin slipping into the vehicle.
City lights turn into trees and wonderful gardens that no longer can be seen because of the starry night.
I wipe my sweaty hands on my dress shaking them when lights become prominent and commotion can be heard from the distance.
“You’re going to do just fine” Nekoly smiles combing down my hair to ensure it stays laid. “You’re gonna walk in there with that dress and slay every single person in there why? ” she questions dusting off my dress even though it’s perfectly fine making me roll my eyes “because I can”

When I step out the first thing I notice are the countless cameras that begin to flash and the various voices that have began their vicious verbal attacks.
I push my hand over my face to avoid the lights that are preventing me from being mobile but to my dismay I miss a step and feel myself falling but only my phone hits the stairs and it shatters.
I gasp opening my eyes when I never hit the floor but instead above me Stood Alexander Elahandro the CEO of Seven Springs a multi- billion dollar company consisting of a chain of hotels.
His bold blue eyes studied me and his pink long tongue circled his lips before he gracefully pulled me to my feet.
“What’s beautiful lady like you doing already trying to make love to the floor?” He joked light-hearted and god was it awful but he was so beautiful I had to chuckle along .
“I guess a lady just had to make love to something tonight.” I reply surprising myself. Great Anna just peachy way to be smooth with the flirty chatter.
However his eyes seem to twinkle beneath the lights and it’s then that I realize that my feet are moving and we are now entering the building. “Tell me sweet heart ,would you mind joining me at my table?” He raises a perfect arched brow I look down at our still clasped hands and back up at him. “I would love that”
