Billionaire's Bargain :A deal of desire

A shaft of sunlight tore its way through the east of Sarah's window and tickled her eye lashes. She twisted under the sheets, trying to get a few minutes of glorious sleep. One minute passed and she didn't care, she just wanted to enjoy these few moments between sleep and dreams, a moment of bliss it was for her.. “Sarah? “footsteps sounded at her door.” Sarah you are not going to sleep away the entire day would you? “. She groaned and pulled the covers over her head and wished that one thin blanket could drown out her grandfather's voice. She knew he didn't mean any harm, but was it necessary to remind her times without number that she was utterly and completely jobless? His sharp tap on her bedroom door echoed through her room and it harmonised with the sound of the clock sitting by her bed side. “Coming “. She kicked the word out, then sat up managing in the same motion to swipe her feet to the ground. In the two months since she had been laid off, she had crossed every place in Blue City, submitting dozens of resumes and going through almost twenty job interviews even after call backs, the job went to someone else. Debts piling up and tax too,If she didn't get a job soon, she was going to be in big trouble, her savings were suffering likewise no job skills except for one she had recently lost, she had no effective skill to earn her a living. Well that wasn't entirely true, she did have one, lucrative but burglary wasn't a solid career option and she was determined to be a solid citizen, her life has been all about secrets and she was tired of it, tired of being a loner, tired of worried about getting caught she needed a real respected job. But unless something changes soon, she might end up flipping burgers at a*****e. Not exactly what she hoped to be doing at twenty four ..oh No! Twenty five, happy birthday to me, with a scowl she pushed herself off the bed and headed for the door, she had grown up with a grandfather who has been an expert in “To catch a thief series “ he had ended up with a princess after the grab, Sarah wanted her own Beautiful life, a decent job and a happy ever after, was that too much to want? “Sarah if you don't open the door now, I am going to keep your birthday present to myself “.... That got her moving, she grabbed the knob and opened the door, GrandDad stood there looking dapper, as always holding two martini glasses “A toast”... he said handing one to her as he stepped into the room… “To my favourite granddaughter “... She grinned “I'm your only granddaughter gramps” I laughed… “Then my fondness for you worked out quite well “... With a shake of her head, she followed as he perched on the edge of her bed, she took the single wooden folding chair, the only other sitting in her tiny bedroom. She held up the martini. “Let me guess, today you are Superman from the movie “. His face lit up…. “You were always better at my games than your grandma or father “..... She smiled lifting the martini glass, “Amazing humour but grandad.. A martini for breakfast? “... She smiled.. “it's your birthday cub, anything goes”.... She smiled,... “I will keep that in mind “. He wagged a finger in mock warning, but she laughed.. She adored her grandad and would do just anything for him. He was in fact the reason she kept up the burglary thing, he had taken care of her when her parents died and as she got older it was time to take care of him.. The only job she knew is what he taught her, she had used that skill to keep them both off the street. Same skill saved her a chance to go to school, with a shiny bachelor degree as evidence…. But she didn't intend to go back to it now, a life of crime... Unless she figured out a way, she might just go to it one more time, because they were at the verge of losing the one thing her parents left to her, “ This house “.. And she lives here with pa, she is not giving it up so easily … Girls her age might get mad at the idea of living with their grandfather at this age, but Sarah lost her parents as a child and soon grandpa would go too, she needs to spend as much time as possible with him before then… “To new beginnings and bright futures “... “I'll drink to that “... She said… “unless by bright you don't mean under the light bulbs in a nice restaurant “... They both laugh, “I don't indeed… “.. He took his drink and she took hers too and immediately spat it out,.. “Damn, this is water grandpa “.... “Well Sarah I don't intend to indulge you in alcohol just yet “.... She grinned,.. “personally I like my water sweet”. She tossed the glass to the table, she sat down and a frown formed on her face,.. “What is it Sarah “?.... “What exactly did I go to school for, it took forever to finish one degree and then for what exactly? To be roaming around looking for a job that is not there “.... “you will find one”.. He replied, he placed his glasses down, walked up to her with a serious look.. “maybe it's time you give up the pretense, “ She looked on his direction, surprised… “pretense “? She asked.. “yeah, take the time off while you evaluate your options, “.. She looked at him confused on how he could suggest something like that, “Grand pa, I know and appreciate your thoughts but I still have to care for you and other expenses I just need to get myself a job,”... She spoke tiredly, Sarah recollected the thrills she got from going into one's locked compartment and how much excitement it brought her but she was never going back to that life, she must turn a new leaf. Sarah stopped a moment to watch her grandpa, his body language was different and so was his itching feet. She knew he was up to something, it had better not be what she was thinking… She watched him reach into his pocket and brought out a shiny black box,... Sarah slipped a heart beat as she took the box from him… “oh dear heavens!”.. She panicked, she tried to keep her hand steady as she opened the box and moans behold it had the most beautiful diamond necklace she had ever seen in her entire life!... Oh No no no! She found herself exclaming, she lifted the necklace and her eyes fell on the stones, her stomach twisted at the high quality of the stones and the work of art,... “This must cost half a mil to be this cute”... She finally spoke in shock. She looked at him and watched his reaction, her expression reflected fear and disbelief. She didn't even want to hide her expression. “... Grandpa”…her voice barely a whisper… . “what in the world have you got us into”?..
