Edward's thoughts were still on the pretty woman he met today. Just a month ago he had met another really pretty woman. Her name was Isabella, he didn't like her very much but was still keen on going out with her.
Moreover, his brother who just arrived from Spain had told Edward to prepare a pretty girl for him before he returned. His brother Leo was fond of women. He had already married a Spanish woman while in Spain and now he was looking for another one in the US.
But he had the money so let him just do whatever he wants after all someone with a lot of money like him could do whatever he wanted. Money speaks.
, Nevertheless, Leo was a stunning figure, a figure that any woman would wish for. Likewise, Edward himself, although he did not look so young he had a taste.
Just yesterday Edward called Isabella and told her of this his plan with his brother. She was astonished but she didn't much care as long as Leo possessed the same amount of wealth as Edward himself.
Their meeting was organized the next day. Anyways, Edward already knew that Isabella was just in his life because of his money and fame and she just wanted to tap into it. They were to meet at the library. Edward organized it there so that the meeting will be more reserved.
Isabella and Edward started to speak of the impressive artwork Edward bought the other day and Edward's companies then from there Edward told her that his brother was asking her out. Her voice was husky and low. The way she breathed, like she'd been holding her breath for a long time. It was so beautiful.
Her face was flushed, and her eyes were wide. Edward was looking at her with a smile on his face. They started talking about bout their upcoming date, but she could hear the sound of his voice. When he spoke, it sounded like a growl. Her heart started pounding.
And then she said that she had to tell him something. Something she didn't want anyone to hear.
So she told him that she loved him.
Edward was really surprised. He knew he loved her too but they just met just a month ago.
It seems like they moving faster than their shadow.
But even at that, Edward felt that he had found someone else who would be a perfect replacement if Isabella.
Moreover, he continued, 'he is here'.
The library door swung open and a man in his mid-thirties, dressed in black jeans and a black t-shirt with dark brown hair walked in, his face was completely expressionless.
It isn't a time for a smile. Her eyes were on him, on his hands. On his fingers. A single, perfect, black, manicured nail was pressed to his lips. As Isabella stared, a feeling of dread began. There was no way this guy was the one. It was 9 impossible. But he walked right up to Isabella and kissed her lips. A small gasp escaped her and her eyes widened. Then he kissed Isa, her cheeks, and neck and then she began crying.
He released his lips. Isabella was still shocked. Her eyes fell to his hand, still holding her by the chin and he smiled. She was saying to herself, this man was going to make me his, make my heart beat faster, give me a taste of that which was so much more than what I'd ever known before, that was the only thing I ever wanted. But he had other plans, plans that she didn't even know were plans until that moment.
She was still in shock. What was he thinking, thinking that he would kiss her? I mean, what kind of man would do that? But then again, maybe it wasn't because she thought he wanted her more.
Slowly and quietly, Edward left the scene for them. He wanted to give them a chance to familiarize themselves. Leo thanked him for that by giving him a wink.
Isabella was getting shy, she was starting to feel like a toy that a five-year-old would use to play with.
But she thought what kind of relationship begins with a kiss? Normally, it was supposed to begin with some level of introduction before getting into the more intimate part.
Edward just sat at a table close to them so that he can hear them.
So the talk began.
Have you been married before, Isabella asked Leo as she looked at his hand and observed a ring on his ring finger.
Shit, Leo messed up, Edward thought, the plan was not to meet her with the ring and then deny the fact that he was married Leo forgot to take the ring off.
Leo found out about his mess and decided to tell her the truth at least once in his life.
Well, I am married because I had some companies to attend to in Spain and I need a green card so I just married a Spaniard to get a green card. It is not as if I took it seriously, Leo explained.
But you don't have to worry, very soon we will sign our divorce papers.
Isabella nodded as if she understood or maybe she seemed to.
So I came back to the US to look for true love, you don't have to stress yourself talking, Edward has already told me a lot about you and from what he said I think I am going to like you a lot. Leo continued.
So what made you so confident to kiss me, Isabella asked.
Leo paused for a while and looked at Edward who chuckled.
I did that because your lips were enticing, but I am sorry if it offended you. Leo apologized.
Isabella didn't talk. She looked at Leo and then Edward, so this was his plan all along, well she was going to flow with it at least just for the money, she thought to herself.
