AFFAIRS OF THE HEART

This is a fashion killer.

Monica's POV

My conscience was definitely saying the truth when it said this dress was going to get me in trouble. All Emily's idea. Since I had no clothes to wear what I was left with to wear was a little lace blck dress Emily gabe me.The dress showed quite a cleavage. 

"This is a mistake ,I murmered as I lifted up the dress to cover what was exposed skin which was a total failure.Emily shot me a smile saying 

"This is a fashion breakthrough.Now stop squirming like a fish out of water and go blow some men off their feet"

And now am still here chanting mentally,this is a mistake.

"wow, you look..." Suzanne looked at me hungrily like an animal who wanted to devour me I could tel she was getting to like me.like alot.I wasn't sure what was going on though. Things were getting out of hand really fast vetween me and her.I never fanicied me being with a woman before but suzanne was quite tempting. The way she would look at me at times,and the way her looking at me would make me feel gave me chills.It made me question my sexuality at times She had a way with me that I didnt quite understand.

"You lo9o breathtaking ,"he lingered a kiss at the top of my palm that sent xhills down my spine. he was working overtime this time aroind and I wasn't mad at it.

"How I wish you were mine at rimes"he continued making me trip for her even more.That kisss sent shivers down my spine.

''Thank you'' I breathed and caught the movement of his eye when it rested on my you-know-what-I'm-talking about.

He smirked , licking the bottom of his lips and released my hand while I made a mental note not to flirt with him else I get myself into trouble . Especially before he biegins to think I dressed up to impress and flirt with him.

Yeah, I might have crushed on his cousin last night but didcovering him and Claus are competitive and might be seeing me as a sort of prize to be won, I backed off.

I' m done being used , Andrew showed me exactly the pain and humiliation of being used so Ive had enough.

I cant afford to go through such pain again so I'll stay away as much as I can from trouble , a ahot handsome trouble.

Claus and Tina were the last to arrive and I couldnt help but stare at him, how did such a heartless playboy get to be adorned with so much good looks and body.

Ok, danger...danher..leave the body part out.

''Fine ,I was just checking him out nothing else '' I said to myself of course, no one elese.

''Welcome everyone'' Mr Adam said as soon as everyone was settles while I scanned everyone I knew , there was also a few reletives present at the table.

Sparkiling neat cutleries were placed at everyone's side while wine glasses and mugs sat beside them . And I almost forget , the napkies were there as well, vere soft , white and expensive.

Still enjoying the thrill of dinning with a wealthy family ,I almost let out a startled yell when my eyes met Claus' scorchung gaze.

There was something wild and untamed about that gaz that I felt electricity caourse through y body.

I shivered as the thought of Claus checkingme out filled my head. Suddenly my heart bubbled with joy, why was the mere thought of Claus checking me out excite me this much.

He finds me attractine ? I rejoiced but suddenly frowned, I must be crazy.

Unfortunately that joy didnt last for long .

I followed the direction of his gaze and discovered it was resting on my cleavage , then I felt real anger.

He wasnt checking the dress nor me out rether he was staring intensly at my..my.,,,my .. you know what am talking about... and he was enjoying the sight. How could someone be si shamekess.

Though my body was thrilled with the fact that I could still make a man salivate cause Arhur did a good number on my self esteem but I was angry , how could he stare at me that way , so brazenly with Tina beside him.

So I sent a him a blizzard like glare but he simply smirked and looked away.

Wow , I gasped .

He was shamelessly eye flirting with some girl who wasnt his girlfirend infront of his girlfriend. This guy was definitely a aplayer to the end and funny enough , I cant seem to remember how I got tangled with the likes of him .

Tina must have felt what was going on or she maybe  it was the girls instincts  cause she found the cause of Claus' distraction.

My cleavage

And she sent a look that if eyes were bullets , I would be long dead.

As if on cue, the servans arrived with our food saving me from experiencing another of Tina's  tortourious glare.

Everyone ate in silence just like a mannered aristocratic family, even the sounds of cutleries clicking against the plates wre not heard unlie my family where my sister makes most of her discussions and nouised during a meal.

The silence though didnt last forever caise it was broken by the troublemaker Isabella as she requested for an islend from her grandfather.

What would a ten yer old girl do wth a private island? I wonderd.

But that was until I learned she already had three private islands to her disposal and I chocked on my food.

What, the, f**k.

And I was utterly bewildered when Mr. Adams readily agreed to buy her another one with a one ondition deal in between.

''What deal?''Isabella asked leaning curiously towards her garndfather and I couldnt help but notice the mischevious glint,  She definitely was upto something that'll surely and when I say surely , I mean surely , will upset her father.

''You go to the same school with Annabelle '' Mr Adams replied with a confident grin but the reactions from family memebers werent encouraging as all especially Claus.

''Fine '' claus snapped .''Lets hear the life changing words she has to offer.

He said with heavy sarcasm and I knew that whatever I said at that moment wasnt going to please anyone.

If I lie , they'll know and if I say the truth he'll still be displeased , so I just might as well say my mind and come clean.

''urm..I..i..''

''Just say te s**t out '' Claus growled out of nowhere startling me as I gasped from he fright.

''Ithinkhe shouldgowithAnabelle''

i said it all in one swift word as everyone gave me a confused stare.

I said letting my hair fall over my face like a acurtain , shielding their curious eyes that I felt all over even though I couldnt see them...................
