I'm in the locker room putting my uniform on getting ready to start a new day working at Tres Spades hotel in Dubai.

"Hey Nicole!" Sakiko greeted me with a smile.

"Ready to start work?" She asked.

"Yeah just abo--" My pager went off and I already knew what that meant. "Is that your boyfriend?" Sakiko asked beaming at me.

"Sorry I gotta go." I said rushing out of the locker room. Knowing him, I have about 5 minutes to get to the penthouse on the 52nd floor. I need to hurry.

"Come on elevator." I said frustratedly. I entered the elevator and checked my watch. I only have 2 minutes left. "Gosh, Eisuke can be so impatient!" I said flustered thinking about how much trouble I'll be in if this elevator doesn't go any faster.

"Finally."

I hurried into the hallway and I burst through the door into the penthouse panting.

"You called?" I asked Eisuke who was waiting in the lounge for my arrival.

"Just in time." He said.

"So what did you want? I was about to start work." I said out of breath.

"I just wanted to remind you that you belong to me and that we have another party to attend this evening." He replied.

"Eisuke!" He's really unbelievable. He's been doing this for a week now.

It's been almost a year since I was bought at the black market auction. This year has really gone by fast. I never thought I would be put up for auction, let alone start dating the person who bought me. A year ago, I was used as a replacement for a statue being put up for auction.

I was bought for 20 million by Eisuke Ichinomiya, the owner of Tres Spades. He seemed cold and scary at first, but I saw that there was more to him then his coldness. I fell in love with him.

"Where do you want me to buy your dress from? Paris, Dubai, London?" Eisuke asked instantly snapping me out if my thoughts.

"Woah slow down there. I'll be just fine with a dress in Japan." I said.

"Well I'm picking it out. You obviously don't have good taste in dresses."

"Why are you so rude?" I questioned.

"Dont act like you don't love it."

I rolled my eyes at his comment.

When we arrived at the mall, Eisuke picked out my dress and accessories.

"Try this one." He demanded me to try on a long red silky dress with rhinestones on it. As I put on the dress, I began to think that it didn't suit me.

"Eisuke I don't think this suits me." I admitted.

"Why not?" He asked.

"Well it's not really me."

"Come out and let me see." He commanded. I hesitantly walked out of the dressing room.

"Turn around." He said. I turned around and saw a smirk on his face.

"Not bad." He commented. I smiled in reply.

"Now you need shoes and accessories."

"You don't really need to buy me that stuff."

"You're not going to embarrass me by looking terrible. The prince of Dres Vann is coming to the party."

"Wow he must be a very important guest."

"He is. Now also you will need this." He said handing me a bottle.

"Eisuke this is perfume."

"Do you really think that I will accompany a smelly girlfriend to a party?"

"Keep talking and I'll make you eat green peas." I threatened. Eisuke hates green peas.

Eisuke just ignored my comment and began looking at the shelf of shoes in the corner.

"Try these on." He said while handing me some black elegant shoes.

"Woah." The shoes were amazing.

"Not bad. I'll buy them."

I took off the shoes and he purchased everything.

After I changed we went to the I.V.C. Whenever there is one, that means there's an auction going on. As Eisuke went around and greeted people for a bit, he stopped. "There's someone I want you to meet." I was a bit nervous, but agreed. "Ok." Eisuke and I walk over to the other side of the room to where a group of very important people are, they almost look like royalty!

"Eisuke they look like their characters from a fairy tale." I whispered in his ear. He ignored my anticipation and introduced me to a young man that looked like he could be a king.

"Prince Joshua this is Nicole Katawa, Nicole this is Prince Joshua. He's prince of DresVan and next in line for throne." He greeted.

"Prince?!" I questioned loudly.

"Pleasure to meet you. Eisuke has told me a lot about you." Prince Joshua implied.

I didn't know Eisuke talked about me.

Eisuke's blank expression looked unchanged as he slipped an arm around my waist.

"That's because she is very important to me." Eisuke replied.

"Nicole, we should go." Eisuke said while directing his attention towards me. "Ok." As we walked away I felt as if someone was following me. We were walking in the direction of where the auction took place at.

~~~~~~~

"Stay here with the others. I will be back after I have checked up on some things." Eisuke said. We were near Baba, Ota, Soryu, and Mamoru at the auction when Eisuke suddenly had to go. We haven't been spending much time together. I rolled my eyes at the thought.

"Did you just roll your eyes?" He asked.

"N-No I didn't." I stuttered.

"I think you did." He came closer to me and grabbed my chin so that I would look up to him.

"I don't think you ever want to do that again." He then closed the gap between us and just as he was about to kiss me Ota interrupted.

"Eisuke we- Am I interrupting anything here?" Ota asked.

"No I was just leaving." Eisuke implied.

They both left the auction and just as I was about to walk toward the others, I was confronted by a man that looked slightly familiar with a mask on.

"Your boyfriend is gone and now I have an offer for you. Leave him and be my girlfriend." The man said.


I was shocked by his sudden command.

"N-no thank you I'd rather stay with Eisuke." I stuttered.

"How dare you say no." The man grabbed my wrist with a great amount of force.

"Let go!" I shouted. Baba then came to the rescue and made him let go of me.

"Get away from her your hurting her." He ordered. The man then left with a few words announced..

"I'll be back."
