Chapter 17

She smiled at Damon awkwardly, "well, how can I forget the person whom I mistakenly approached for I thought are the someone I knew," she responded and that made Damon smiled widely like a saucer and even bowed his head like he was really entertained.

Damon was about to response her word but the host spoke up that made the two of them looked at the side of the stage where the host was standing.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, with our special guests sitting in the chair where all of us can have our visual, we are going to be celebrating and to witness the 18th collection of the one of the most successful designer of the entire world. Karl Lim been showing his talent in the pieces we all dreamt of wearing. He made many of the piece where most international celebrities wore in their prestigious events and even in their lives. We have one of the most sought after model of the world, Zavanna is in the chair and she has been one of the faces of KL for 5 years now. She was also the global ambassador of KL for 3 years now. Beside her, is KL's newest Philippine ambassador and he will be working alongside our muse, Zavanna.

She smiled when the host mentioned her name and her face was appeared on the stage, it was fresh live. However, the news that has been said about Damon kind off shocked her literally. What the heck? She looked at Damon and the man was looking at her as well with that wide eyes.

"Tonight, let us all witness the fruit of KL's anniversary and the launch of KL's 18th collection."

And with that, models went out the runway with all their best showing off the collection of KL. KL's brand isn't a joke for it was one of the most expensive brand in the world.

"You are the global ambassador of KL?" Damon asked her in whisper while sticking his eyes to the women showing off the runway.

While she was focused with the girls, she heard his question and didn't bother to look at the man. She's not taking her eyes off the girls for after the fashion show, the auction will begin and she was eyeing those she think she would love. "I don't know what kind of question is that, I wonder how the hell you didn't know that information about me. I mean, if I were in your shoes, I would asked who the heck was in the place where I will be stepping my feet on."

The sound of the place were loud and was following the beat of every models. "I actually know you being partnered with KL and for me being not interested with the titles, I was surprised knowing that KL doesn't have an American ambassador. I never heard a Filipino being the global ambassador."

With that reason, Zavanna couldn't agree more. She was the first ever Filipino that secured a place for her in the international stage and world when she became an international model, and that made KL chose her to be their ambassador and her contract will run upto 8 years.

She looked at the man and gave the smile of pride. It was a pride for her to make it here. Although she was surprised that this man is a model as well for she never heard him being a model before. But couldn't agree more, KL Phil. made the best decision of putting Damon their front for her looks and feature was on another level.

He could really be a model. She immediately went serious upon thinking what would be the reaction of their co-models when they get the chance of seeing Damon. She herself has the highest standard of a man and Damon kind off got her attention. For sure, girls are going to be stripping their selves just to get Damon's attention. She focused her mind to the runway and tried to get rid those thoughts she knew are worthless.

Damon have a certain reason of being here and this event literally making him sleepy. However, while glancing Zavanna in his peripheral view, he knew that she was enjoying the event for it was her thing. While the show was on-going his mind and attention was never on it. He was never interested and didn't imagine that he will be in this place. It's just that, this would be one of his assets to enter the world of people, the world where most monsters are living.

This time, he had already secure his name in this industry. By being in the zone where he was never done before, him being a fresh starter, he indeed is making his way towards the success of plans.

Zavanna was enjoying the show, she even clapped her hand after the last KL piece was shown in the show. Karl Lim never disappoint her that she always want to work with the brand. She was endoring almost all of the brands way back before she became an exclusive KL ambassador for 8 years.

"Zavanna my love!" Karl yelled in whisper when he ran upto her and offered her a wide open arms.

"It was lit, Karl," she said chuckling and caresses Karl's back. She became friends with Karl before she even became the brand's global ambassador.

"I was nervous as hell at the very beginning.... Oh wait, I"ll introduce you to someone very important to KL'S," she narrowed her eyes with what she just heard and followed Karl's movement. She raised her brows upon seeing Karl getting closer to Damon who is talking with the other guests.

She was looking at Karl approaching Damon and Damon smiling at Karl. She and Damon meet their eyes while Karl was bringing Damon unto her.

*"So, it was Damon that Karl was talking about, the very important person of KL's,"* she said over her mind.

"I do not know if you both knew each other but it has 99% chance of such thing for you two came from the same country and there was no single person that doesn't know about Zavanna. However, I still want to introduce you with each other, Zavanna this is Damon Rivero, the President of the F&D Company and Damon, this is the Zavanna Salazar, your country's highest paid model of all time."
