Luna's POV
I watched as he descended down the stairs egoistically, carrying his shoulders up perfectly, his thick black hair shone brightly beneath the light of the chandelier, his flawless skin seem to be the most graceful thing in his body, but when i beheld his face, i was forced to rebuke myself for thinking that in the first place.
Seeing his small heart-shaped lips, the sudden urge to explore it rushed through me, but that is going to be the biggest mistake of my life. My eyes traveled to his pointed nose and i couldn't help the goosebumps that popped up on my skin. I watched every step he took, the ground he walks on, praising him gracefully for touching them, and as he finally got to my front, that was when i got a better view of his deep blue eyes, and I froze on the spot.
*Heck! It reminds me of the blue magical flowers *
He clicked his fingers bringing me out of my thoughts.
"Can we leave now or do you want to stare more?" He hoarsed.
I scoffed. "Who was staring? Me? You wish"
We both joined the family for a breakfast. It was a turkey bacon sandwich and chicken enchilada soup. Before leaving for my mission, I had done enough research about the human world including their food, so it didn't take me much effort to recognize it.
The food tasted much better than it looked in those pictures.
" These tastes nice" I couldn't help but say as I took my first bite of the sandwich and made a satisfying sound. I heard someone chuckle but I was too preoccupied to check who it was.
"So how is my son treating you?. Hope you are enjoying your stay here?" Peter, Mark's father asked as the sandwich hovered right at the entrance of his mouth.
I wanted to scream a loud No and tell him how much suffering his son has put me through just a few hours here. Mark had forced me to resume duty today as his bodyguard if I wanted to get my new clothes and shoes.
"I'm treating her very well dad, so you don't have to worry about her" Mark interrupted with a fake smile. He shot me a hard stare as I swallowed hard.
Since I'm so desperate of getting money and not losing my job, i will just let this opportunity of exposing how evil Mark is to his dad.
"I'm enjoying my stay here all thanks to Mark. You're so lucky to have such a lovely son".
"I know right. I'm also sure my son is lucky to have a friend like you" Peter huffed a laugh.
I blinked my eyes. I really don't understand what that sentence meant but it sounded more like a joke, so I joined in the laughter. I turned to see Mark glaring hardly at me, I stopped laughing immediately and focused on my food.
After the breakfast, we both left for the company. When the car pulled up at the large parking lot, I couldn't help but gasp at the huge glass building standing before me. Mark got inside and I toddled along, we got into the elevator which took us to the last floor.
All eyes turned towards us as we walked past them, I guess they're wondering who the pretty lady standing beside their boss is.
"Good morning sir" They greeted excitedly but got a nod from Mark.
I let out a sigh as we finally came to a halt before a large room. He pushed open the door to reveal some cleaners who quickly hurried away as soon as we both stepped in.
Looks like they just finished setting a table and a swivel chair, not too far from the door. Directly opposite it - at the other end of the room, was another table and chair with some documents neatly arranged on the table. It was obviously his because he walked towards it and sat down.
He let out a sigh before opening up some documents. I stood still waiting for him to say something or probably tell me what to do next. But when it seemed like it was never going to happen, I slinked closer and banged hard on his table causing him to flinch back in shock.
"Hey. What was that for? " He fired.
"Sorry but what would you have me do? You were almost forgetting that you came with your guardian angel" I forced a smile, I made sure he knew how fake my smile was.
"Are you kidding me? Do you think here is some kind of market place where you go around causing nuisance? I'm here to work lady" He scolded.
I quickly moved backwards as I wondered if I really did the right thing by accepting this job.
Mark let out a deep sigh. "That is your table over there. You can just sit down there and protect me while I work"
"What?" I exclaimed.
He glared at me. "Okay" I muttered.
I sat down lazily on the swivel chair as I stared at Mark who was completely busy going through one documents or the other.
At this rate, I will definitely die of boredom. Why did he have to fix my table here? I don't even have someone to talk to, it's as good as being confined in a prison.
He swiftly made some scratches here and there with the pen in his hand. "You're going to burn a hole in my head if you keep gazing at me like that" He said teasingly without looking up.
I snapped my head back to the magazine. I mumbled to myself as I made a face.
Few hours later, the door cracked open to reveal a young lady. She was corporately dressed in a black skirt and white long sleeve shirt. But the top buttons of the shirts were unbuttoned, revealing the cleave of her breasts.
She had a sculpted figure which was twine - thin. Her waist was tapered and her pair of archered eyebrows looked down on sweeping eyelashes. She had a burnished complexion and her body was a perfect definition of perfection.
She shot me a hard stare while I gazed back, she hissed and catwalked towards Mark who had seen her walked in but acted like he was deeply occupied.
"Good afternoon sir" She greeted, smiling widely and Mark just nooded. "Please sir, these documents needs your signature"
Mark nooded again without looking up. The lady made a face and I wondered what her next step would be. She looked so desperate.
Without notice, she placed her buttocks on the table and that finally made the over busy prince to look up.
" You look so stressed out sir. Don't you think you need something to ease off?" She said putting on a mischievous smile.
" And what do I need to ease off my stress, miss doctor"
" Isn't it obvious?" The lady bit her lip seductively, drawing down her shirt and revealing more of her cleavages.
I almost threw up. How could someone be so shameless?.
Mark huffed a laugh. "You really got some nerves" He replied. "Now, do me a favor - get yourself out of my office, my company and never show up before me ever again"
The annoying smile on her face turned to a frown. " What do you mean by that Sir?"
" Simply put, you're fired" He repeated through gritted teeth.
She quickly sprang to her feet. " What? I'm sorry sir, please don't fire me. I was only trying to be helpful" She pleaded but Mark remained unmoved.
Helpful my foot.
"Please forgive me sir. I have learnt my lessons and I promise not to repeat this. Please forgive me sir, I can't afford to lose this job."
Mark glanced at me. " Hey. Do the needful" He ordered and went back to work.
I stood up and plodded to where she stood. " Excuse me miss, I think it's time you leave" I softly spoke with a tight lipped smile.
She gave me a derisive look. " Don't get yourself involved in this. Why should I listen to you?"
I laughed dryly. " Maybe because I'm his guardian angel and wouldn't think twice to crush whomever dares to make him uncomfortable"
She scoffed. " Guardian angel my foot. And if I refused to leave?"
" Then I will be forced to throw you out myself and not just that, but also tell everyone how you tried to seduce their boss. And you know how humiliating that will be"
She studied me for a moment, probably thinking if she could believe my words. Finally, when she seemed to be satisfied. " I will leave but I assure you that just the way this jerk disrespected and treated me like I was a trash, you will be next and I will be somewhere better laughing at you" She slowly spoke through gritted teeth and walked out.
I let out a deep sigh of relief as soon as she banged the door behind her. "Jeez. She is crazy. "
"I'm his guardian angel? That sounded cool" Mark suddenly muttered, chuckling.
I turned to look at him shocked. He knows how to smile? This is weird. I didn't know when my frown turned into a smile as I watched the most beautiful smile I have seen so far.
