Dark Tunnel

Either of us

The first day of courting Laura arrived.

Laura Pov

Am so scared of meeting Alexander but I need to do this for my family ,for my sisters and for everything I hold dear because the Andersons can ruin everyone of us. sigh. I think I should check on my sisters they should be here helping me for Godsake . leaving her room to check on her sisters she found them in the drawing room discussing something.

Hi cupcakes what are you discussing. she didn't want them to see her fears.

Lisia; sis come come we have alot to do . let get you prepared before Mr Anderson finds you late and decides to wipe us off the face of earth . she laughs. Laura stiffened . Anastasia was looking helpless she wished she can help her sisters out of it and make him marry her without getting her sisters involved . Lisia being the party type believe the best way to please Alexander is by dressing classic and sexy. Laura believe she should wear something less attractive since he must have seen alot women of high calibre and class .she should make a difference in other to please him .

A black Tesla park outside Thier mansion waiting for her. A tall well looking man stepped out he must be the driver he opened the door for her and she entered the car then she heard him say enjoy your ride ma'am.Thanks .she entered a very beautiful high class restaurant with nice interiors and many security .Great what is she expecting from the great Alexander. A man came to receive assumed to be the manager. Good day ma'am you must be miss brune please come this way. when she saw Alexander she was dumbstruck.

Laura's pov

Is this really Alexander Anderson.oh my God I was actually expecting to see some kind of a monster since the rumours about him being ruthless and heartless is undeniable. He looks so elegant ,graceful and powerful at the same time. I think he was born for a tuxedo because they look perfectly well on him.His jet black hair looks so good I guess he likes it messy.

Laura was still standing mesmerising Alexander when he cleared his throat to catch her attention. you must be miss brune , isn't it improper for you to stare at me that way , I assume Mr Charles brought you up well.I can't have a disrespectful woman as my bride. Laura immediately apologised . Am sorry Mr Anderson I would take note of that. A middle age woman took Thier orders and left.

I don't want this to go on for too long so I won't ask many questions.Did you accept to be my bride willingly . she nodded and thought what was he expecting ? how can she defy her father's order and let him wipe her whole family.

why did you choose to be my bride.I believe I would be a better bride for you Mr Anderson and with me by your side you would have no worry for your business because I am good at what I do. she said all that with a thumping heart and immediately gulped her drink.

I believe this dinner have come to an end I would drop you home. she nodded. The ride was silent and peaceful. when she arrived at her father's mansion she let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. Thank you Mr Anderson.hmm he nodded and she got out of the car. Have a great night miss brune . she was so exhausted that she just wanted to sleep and forget her worries although her curious sisters would want to hear every detail of what happened tonight but she was in no mood for it. immediately she hit the bed she slept off.
