A Mystical Destiny

Klasy Collin is one of the most famous models in the country. Known for her family's massive political contribution and her own stand on the economic issues, Klasy is admired by diverse fans. At 25 years old, she was able to build her own name in the modeling world. She's loved for her humor and music taste. She basically has everything a person could ask for.  Filthy rich and she has a wild side to herself, but that only makes her more attractive. When it comes to men, she has the highest standard and none of his friends has ever qualified. She's heavily self-dependent, and having no boyfriend since birth is not an issue to her. On the night of Chiara's birthday party, Klasy went together with her best friend for life Rowy. They were escorted by Klasy's guards. Since her family is deliberately into politics, she's used to having bodyguards follow her all day. The two of them were reminded to call them right away when they are ready to leave the party so they will meet them in the entrance. "My cousins will be here. I haven't seen them for ages." Klasy whispered as they geared toward the entrance of the hall. "I heard Theodore just came back from New York!" Rowy giggled as she gave her a smirk. "Who's that? One of your boys?" She gave her a judgmental look. Rowy is one of the hottest actress in today's generation. Wherever she goes, there is a paparazzi following her, so she has not been dating lately to avoid rumors. They entered in the hall, and the loud classical music greeted them. It's a grand party where the new models of Chiara Talent will be introduced. It is attended by business persons, music and acting personalities, producers, investors, and influential figures. "He's a friend, but also Pao's younger brother." Klasy was surprised when she mentioned that Paolo has a brother. "What do you mean? We've been friends since college, but he never mentioned that he has..." She was not able to finish her sentence because she already saw the man coming towards their way. Paolo Callosi is the General Manager of Callosi Group at the moment. He holds enough power and influence in the business world to earn respect from those who only know his name. He's wearing a black suit and bow, his new cut makes him look more of a model than a businessman. Needless to say, this bachelor is one hot prospect of every single lady around him. "Hi. You just arrived?" Even Paolo's voice is commanding. He could be standing right there, but nothing changes the fact that he's exuding too much appeal. "Yup. Rowy and I came together." Klasy didn't mean to stutter when she answered but the stare that the guy beside Poalo is giving her made her a little nervous. "You look equally gorgeous tonight. I bumped into your father earlier, and he mentioned that you're running late due to prior appointment. I guess finishing your make up took long again." They are close enough to joke with each other. Klasy rolled her eyes, but Rowy went to stand beside Paolo. "It's been so long, Theo. How have you been?!" She exclaimed. For the first time, Klasy saw the man smiled, but that made her a little flustered for some reasons. "Thought you wouldn't recognize me. I have been living my best life, and I believe same with you. I was at the other side of the world, but I still heard news about you." She immediately knew that he's well-spoken. "You don't have to lie! My popularity is confide here, and that's fine. By the way, you haven't met Klasy, right?" Rowy gave her a quick blink as if trading her off. When the guy faced Klasy, she immediately blushed. She finds his presence intimidating even it's their first time to meet. From his slicked back hairstyle to fitted gray tuxedo that looks especially tailored for him, his overall appearance is nothing less than perfect. She's trying to distract herself from the thought, but she couldn't stop admiring his body frame, scent, and just the way he's standing there in front of him. "Yes I think they were never introduced to each other before. Klasy, this is my younger brother Theodore Callosi. He studied fashion design in New York as he will be the overall in-charge for our company in the future." Theo is at least 5 inches taller than her, so he looked down to meet her eyes. "Nice to meet you." She wanted to curse when her voice broke for the second time. "Theo, this is Klasy. A good friend of mine, and she's out of your league. Do you remember the one I mentioned to you before, I'd appreciate if you could take a distance..." "Don't spoil it, Pao. You're not entitled enough to put bounderies on them." Rowy's brow raised when she cut what Paolo was about to say. "You love to put me in my place. Fine. What about dinner?" Paolo is used to that side of Rowy, and they are extremely close as well so that won't offend him even a little. "Sounds good. Klasy, are you fine joining them in the table?" She gave one final look to Theodore, and she just finds him familiar as if they had met before. She has been to many fashion shows and events, it's possible that they locked eyes before. "Of course, I'd love that. Have you seen Chiara around?" She asked while scanning the place. She could see familiar faces, but Chiara was not there. Theo gave her a quick glance from head to toe. He knows right away why this lady is special to his brother. "She must be talking with the guests around. She'll come to us when she sees us for sure." Paolo held her in the waist as he lead them to the buffet. Klasy can smell the alcohol that he already had. "I'll get food for you, Rowy. You can go to the table with Pao." He mentioned before the two of them left. It's hard to pronounce the deluxe meals on the menu today, but it just proves that this is a big event. The security is no joke as well. "I didn't know you have a brother." Klasy softly said when they were walking back to the table after getting food. He took a deep sigh as if it was a big deal. "We have different moms." Her jaw dropped. And she didn't know that too. She's impressed that even she knew this man for a long time, there are still things about him that surprise her. "I see. You seem to be in good terms." She commented. "First of, I intentionally didn't tell you about him cause I don't want you being curious. Second, he didn't want to be affiliated with our dad before he went to New York." He stopped walking to face her. She looked at his eyes trying to read the next details. "But Theo is ambitious. He probably realized after going to New York that he wanted to take our father's wealth. I'm in favor because you know that I don't want to be in-charge of this forever. My goal is to live a quiet life in a country-side after I retire at 40." That made her smile. This guy has no greed. He's been in-charge of the GM position for years, and he's bringing huge improvement in the company yet he's willing to give it up for his younger brother. "All I asked is if the two of you are in good terms? I know from the way he looks that he's not staying under your commands." She started walking again, and Paolo followed her. She almost didn't hear his response because of loud music. "I grew fond of him. He's someone I can rely on, and we won't betray each other." He sounds confident, so Klasy's idea of Theo is someone ambitious but with a good heart. Paolo and Klasy have common friends so no introduction was made when they joined the table. There are only hard liquors on the table. In the middle of blaring noises around, Theo was watching Klasy with amazement. He's not even ashamed to keep his eyes on her. "You attended the same school, and both are famous, but it's a surprise that you don't know each other." Rowy murmured. That remark made Klasy glanced at Theo's way. He was conversing with another friend while holding that glass of tequila. He's not anything less than expensive. From his clothes to his perfume, she can tell that he's raised in a rich family. "Stop talking about him. Not even that interested." She answered.  Klasy and Rowy have taken two glasses of whisky that Paolo recommended, and they can't get enough of it. Costing almost a million in their currency, it sure was a good drink. They were a little bit dizzy and tipsy when Chiara went to their table. They greeted her happy birthday, and had fun catching up when the lights went dim slowly. Someone started playing the guitar in the stage, it was backed by violin and guitar creating a romantic ambiance in the place. Klasy smiled when she saw Chiara's fiance approaching their way. He was holding a microphone and he's only looking at the girl of the hour. "Chiara, you know that it's always been you. From the time we met until today, it has been magical. All the crying nights and celebratory moments I shared with you, those are all the precious memories of my time, and I wouldn't ever want to spend the rest of my life with anyone else." Right in front of Chiara, he knelt while holding that diamond ring. "Will you marry me?" Tears escape Klasy's eyes without her knowing it. She found the moment beautiful. As someone who has never been in a relationship, this is purely impressive. Paolo handed her a handkerchief. "They really toughed it out. They are each other's end game." Paolo mumbled. It's a nwe beginning for them, and everyone in the party is just as happy as them. Everyone applauded when she said yes. "You're next!" Paolo and Klasy's friends teased them with that. Klasy was just smiling while Paolo was blushing. They have been friends for a long time, but until now she has no plans of taking it to the next level. Paolo is solely a brother to her. "Paolo will find a better woman, stop expecting from us." She answered because Paolo would never. "Another rejection." The way Paolo's eyes darkened with what Rowy said is hilarious. They always fight, and everyone is used to it by now. "Excuse me. I need to sober up before going home." Klasy excused herself. "Want me to accompany you?" Pao was concerned. "No need, Pao. I'll be back cause you promised that you're taking me and Rowy home tonight." He nodded and watched her leave. She felt dizzy halfway to the necessarium. She stopped for a moment before walking again, but she lost her balance and almost fell on the ground. She opened her eyes to see whose arms caught her, and frown automatically showed in her face. She triedd to stand staight to get away from the man. "You don't have to pretend you can drink hard liquor just to impress my brother. He's already down for you." Theo was about to walk away after saying that, but she grabbed the bottom of his coat causing him to look at her way. "What?" "You thought I was trying to impress men that's why I drank so much? Do you think I'm easy?" Her voice was dangerous, but it didn't earn any reaction from him. "It's obvious." She smirked with his answer. "You are very judgmental for a stranger. I never heard someone tell me... Anyway, your opinion doesn't even matter. I can see that you are arrogant unlike your brother." She let go of his coat and walked fast. She could hear his footsteps at the back. She paused because she felt dizzy again. Theo watched her from the back with full of amazement. The woman must be something else to capture Paolo's whole attention, he was thinking. She was trying hard to walk straight, but couldn't. "What an eye sore." He whispered but with intention to let her hear. She gave him another death glare. He walked closer to her until she's cornered in the wall. She was looking up to meet his eyes as he's a couple inches taller. "You are creating a dirty impression on me, Klasy. I don't care if you are my brother's woman, but I certainly hate the way you look at me." She's shocked with that statement. He was the first to be rude. "You are very arrogant, do you know that?" "I know. I said I hate the way you're looking at me. I really hate it. I don't think I can accept you for my brother." His playful side is already showing. She pushed him with all her might. "I don't need your approval, and please know that I am not interested with getting into a relationship with your brother. I've never met someone as rude as you before. Hope we won't see each other again, psycho!" She rolled her eyes then walked away. He admired her from the back. Really stunning. Someone who can tame a bad guy. Her strong personality could even make him give up everything under his name. He's in awe to meet someone like Klasy.
